By reading the scripture above each day you will read the Old Testament through in one year and the New Testament through twice in a year. This will change your life. Start Today! |
| TODAY'S SCRIPTURE "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." (John 3:16, NKJ)
TODAY'S WORD , when God sent His Son to earth, He opened the door of salvation to whoever would believe. That means anyone can become a child of His and have everlasting life! Isn't it good that He didn't just come to save certain kinds of people? Aren't you glad He doesn't have a bunch of rules and conditions for salvation? Before Jesus came, people had to observe many laws in order to be holy enough to go into God's temple. They were constantly performing sacrifices to pay for their sins just so they could be around the presence of God. Even then, their sins were only covered up. They were still there. But when Jesus came, He was the final sacrifice. His blood doesn't just cover our sins; it washes them away! Now, instead of going to the temple to be near God, the Bible says we are the temple, and He chooses to live inside of us! Today, thank God for His mercy and for extending the gift of salvation to whoever believes in Him. If you've never asked Jesus to be the Lord of your life, there's no better way to start the New Year! Choose Him and choose life and start the year off right! A PRAYER FOR YOU TODAY | Heavenly Father, thank You for sending Your Son, Jesus into this earth so that I can be free. Thank You for opening the door to eternal life. I accept the sacrifice Jesus paid so that I can be free. Come into my heart. I confess that You are my Lord and Savior in Jesus' name. Amen. |
