Day 31: How to Lead Like Jesus (Psalm 18:1-6, Matthew 21:1-17, Job 19:1-21:34) : Psalm 18:1-6 For the director of music. Of David the servant of the Lord. He sang to the Lord the words of this song when the Lord delivered him from the hand of all his enemies and from the hand of Saul. He said:   1 I love you, Lord, my strength.   2 The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer;    my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge,    my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.   3 I called to the Lord, who is worthy of praise,    and I have been saved from my enemies.   4 The cords of death entangled me;    the torrents of destruction overwhelmed me.   5 The cords of the grave coiled around me;    the snares of death confronted me.   6 In my distress I called to the Lord;    I cried to my God for help.   From his temple he heard my voice;    my cry came before him, into his ears. Psalm Commentary A leader’s worship David was one of the greatest leaders in the history of Israe

Su devocional diario - Ver a la hormiga : Ver a la hormiga Dios es un creador maravilloso. January 31, 2023 Proverbios 6.6-8 Dios es un creador maravilloso. Ha integrado muchos de sus principios en la naturaleza para que podamos aprender sobre Él al observar su obra (Sal 19.1-6). Si usted desea sabiduría, busque sus lecciones en el mundo exterior. Por supuesto, lo exterior entra a veces en lo interior. Si alguna vez ha luchado contra hormigas en su cocina, es probable que la sabiduría no fuera la primera cualidad que les atribuiría; quizás elegiría determinación. Pero para la persona perezosa, Dios señala a estas pequeñas criaturas como un ejemplo de vida sabia. Basta con considerar cuántas características de la hormiga sería bueno que las personas adoptaran: preparación, cooperación, perseverancia, diligencia, unidad, y la lista continúa. Por tanto, relacionarse con personas justas no es la única manera de adquirir sabiduría. Dios también quiere que observemos a la humilde hormiga,

In such moments, it’s a comfort to remember that the love of Jesus toward you and me can never be exhausted. He gives and gives and gives. Look at a typical day in His life. In Matthew 14, after a hot, dusty afternoon of preaching to the cr

Su devocional diario - Las bendiciones de Dios : Las bendiciones de Dios Incluso en medio de las dificultades, recibimos los regalos de Dios; solo tenemos que abrir los ojos para verlos. January 26, 2023 Efesios 1.3-14 Todos enfrentamos momentos difíciles en los que podemos llegar a sentir que Dios no nos está bendiciendo. Pero incluso en medio de las dificultades, recibimos sus regalos; solo tenemos que abrir los ojos para verlos. A continuación, hay varios ejemplos de bendiciones que disfrutamos cada día: Tenemos la seguridad de que nuestro Dios Todopoderoso nos eligió antes de la fundación del mundo y nos predestinó a ser adoptados como sus hijos (Ef 1.4, 5). Cristo nos redimió, al salvarnos por medio de su muerte y resurrección (Ef 1.7). Como resultado, los creyentes somos perdonados y recibimos una nueva naturaleza (2 Co 5.17; 1 Jn 1.9). El Espíritu Santo habita en todos los que confiamos en el Salvador. Nos dirige, alerta y acompaña para consolarnos y aconsejarnos. Y además, no

Jeremiah 20:9 God’s Word is powerful, like a two-edged sword. It does not return to Him without accomplishing what it was sent out to do. God’s Word is like rain and snow, saturating the soil to produce a harvest. God’s Word created the Galaxy, the earth, the sun, and the moon. His Word is the most powerful source in the world. Jeremiah, in a plight of despair, wanted to give up. He found himself frustrated numerous times in his ministry because the people refused to listen to his words. Jeremiah took it personally when the ones who claimed to be children of Israel lived like children of Baal. Even in Jeremiah’s darkest day of discouragement, he still said God’s word was like fire

God-Driven Joy Is Our Strength | International Fellowship of Christians and Jews : God-Driven Joy Is Our Strength Yael Eckstein  |  January 25, 2023 Nehemiah said, “Go and enjoy choice food and sweet drinks, and send some to those who have nothing prepared. This day is holy to our Lord. Do not grieve, for the joy of the LORD is your strength.” — Nehemiah 8:10 Today, I continue with a new devotional series on joy, simcha — the joy found in the grateful acceptance and celebration of each day God has given to us. Join me as we explore teachings on the joy found in connecting with God and with others. A friend of mine recently went skydiving. As he described the ordeal of going up in the plane, getting ready for the jump, and then actually taking the plunge, I felt my own heart racing just imagining the scenario. And then he said something that really resonated with me. He said, “I was only able to enjoy the ride because I knew that an experienced instructor was on my back. If I had t
