It All Points to Jesus

Day 294 · October 21

A devotional for today

Today’s readings

New Testament

New Testament Paul warns that the love of money brings ruin. Godliness with contentment is great gain. Timothy is to flee destructive desires, pursue godly character, fight the good fight, and place hope in God rather than wealth. Psalm The psalm wrestles honestly with the apparent collapse of the Davidic promise and asks God to remember His covenant. Proverb A person without self-control is like a city whose defenses have been broken. Discover Jesus Jeremiah’s rejection points toward Jesus, who also speaks truth and is rejected. Psalm 89’s crisis makes the coming of Christ even more important: God has not abandoned David’s line. The true King comes, and our hope belongs in Him. Reflect What fear of people is keeping me from obeying God? Fellowship Share one truth from today’s reading that helps you see Jesus more clearly. Ask how that truth should change the way you live today.

Prayer

Lord Jesus, keep my heart open to Your Word. Help me trust You, obey You, and reflect Your character today. Amen.

Live

Carry one clear truth from today’s Scripture into one real decision, conversation, or act of obedience.
