  • Politics, Justice, and Frustration
    Oct 26 2025
    Solomon presents us with heavy thoughts here, but the rest of the Scriptures provide us with the joy, peace, and hope that the Lord offers and Solomon wanted to know. We are called to obey lawful authorities over us; and even though there are times when tyrants rule unjustly, we don't ever have to worry about the King of kings ruling unrighteously. This world is unjust and corrupt, but there is a day of justice to come -- it's not the end of the story, and we do have a Righteous Judge. Our King will return and give each one his due, but we don't need to fear this final judgment if we are in Christ. There are things in life that we can't control. We can either spend all our time in anxiety over them, or we can enjoy the good blessings in life that the Lord has given us. We do not have to be shackled by anxiety and lack of control over things we can't change. We can rest in the assurance that our Redeemer lives, and that all injustice will be set right one day. Rest in Christ and His love!

  • Do Not Fear Correction
    Oct 23 2025
    A — About: This devotional reminds believers that God's correction flows from His covenant love, not wrath. Though Israel faced discipline, God promised restoration and presence.

B — Best Verse: Jeremiah 46:28 — "Do not fear, O Jacob My servant, says the Lord, for I am with you; for I will make a complete end of all the nations to which I have driven you, but I will not make a complete end of you. I will rightly correct you, for I will not leave you wholly unpunished." C — Call to Action: Do not fear when corrected by God. Embrace His discipline as a sign of belonging and trust in His promise to restore and sustain His people.

  • Men are Schemers
    Oct 19 2025
    It's a blessing for us to learn from Solomon's wisdom, which he unfortunately found out by sad experience. There is no one who is righteous; no matter how hard we try to live righteously, we will still sin and should not be surprised by it. We must also be aware of the traps and snares that are set for us, and stay away from them. The ultimate unfortunate reality is that we were created upright, but we continually scheme and carry out the works of sin. So what do we do? Our only hope is to fear the Lord and trust in Jesus Christ. That is the most wise thing we can do. It is in Christ alone that we find true righteousness, wisdom, and freedom from the schemes and traps of sin.

  • Believe and Obey
    Oct 15 2025
    A – About: Johanan and Azariah reject Jeremiah's message from God, accusing him of lying and choosing to flee to Egypt for safety. Despite God's warning, they disobey and bring destruction upon themselves, showing their unbelief and mistrust in the Lord's word. B – Best Verse: Jeremiah 43:7 (NKJV) – "So they went to the land of Egypt, for they did not obey the voice of the Lord; and they went as far as Tahpanhes." C – Call to Action: Trust God even when His commands seem counterintuitive. True obedience flows from faith — believing that God's ways, not our instincts, lead to life and peace.
