Job 40:1-42:17, 2 Corinthians 5:11-21, Psalm 45:1-17, Proverbs 22:14
Pray: Your throne oh Lord, is forever and ever, the scepter of Your kingdom is a scepter of uprightness. You, Lord, have loved righteousness and hated wickedness. You have anointed us with the oil of gladness. May we rejoice in Your unfailing love for us today. Amen.
Read: God finally gave Job the one thing he wanted most, the opportunity to meet Him in court and defend his case. What if God gave you that opportunity? What would you say to Him? Would you rather meet God in the court room or at His throne of grace? The more you meet Him at the throne of grace the less likely you will want to meet Him in court.
Edify: This building is our new body that we will receive when we see the Lord because God saves the whole person. Creation is groaning and God’s people groan desiring for the Lord to come again. We do not want to die and leave our houses. Paul’s spiritual motivations for service included the judgment seat of Christ, the love of Christ, and the power of the gospel. What motivates you today to do His will?
Practice: Sobering words from Proverbs that it is a terrifying thing for the Lord to be angry with us. Let us remember the continual commandment in scripture to fear the Lord today.
