Studying this morning's four readings from the St. James Daily Devotional Guide (click to subscribe), I examined myself with these questions. Where is your self-examination leading today?
Psalms 95:1-11. What song or hymn shall I take as the theme music for my walk with God today?
Haggai 2:15-23. Verse 22, what thrones and kingdoms of this world (not just political) is God in the process of overthrowing amidst the turmoil of 2020? My role?
Ezra 5:1-17. Related, the age-old question of whether we need the permission of earthly rulers to serve our God. What is my church doing about this issue right now? My role?
Luke 11:5-13. Verses 8-10, what am I currently praying about that may require importunity, knocking and knocking until God answers the door?
