A Promise for Everyone

ree

If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus

and believe in your heart that God has

raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.

Romans:10:9


Today's Bible Reading: Romans 10:8-13.


In today's Bible reading, I want to draw your attention to verse 13, there the Bible says: "For whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved." In this verse, we see a powerful promise from God. He says that whoever calls on His name will be saved. This means that no matter who you are or what you have done, if you call on the name of the Lord, He will save you.


It is important to understand what it means to call on the name of the Lord. It means to confess your sins and ask God to forgive you, and to accept Jesus Christ as your personal Saviour. When you do this, you are acknowledging that you cannot save yourself and that you need God's help. You are also putting your trust in Jesus Christ, His Son, who died on the cross to pay the penalty for your sins.


Verse 13, is a promise and is available to everyone, regardless of their background, race, or social status. It does not matter how good or bad you think you are, or how much you have messed up in the past. All you have to do is call on the name of the Lord, and He will save you.


If you have not already done so, then today, I encourage you to call on the name of the Lord. Confess your sins, ask God to forgive you, and accept Jesus Christ as your Saviour. Know that when you do this, you have the promise of eternal life and the assurance that you are saved by God's grace; And then follow Him, and let Him be your example.



Prayer:  Dear Lord God, I thank You for the promise of salvation through faith in Jesus Christ. I pray today for those who have not yet accepted Jesus as their Saviour, that they may hear your voice and respond to your call. I ask this in Jesus name, Amen.

Are You of Christ ?

ree

Then Peter said to them,“Repent, and let every one

of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ

Acts 2:38


Today's Bible Reading: 1 Corinthians 1:11–22.


In Paul’s letter to the Corinthians, he addresses a troubling reality in the early church: division. Verse 12 reveals, “Each of you says, ‘I am of Paul,’ or ‘I am of Apollos,’ or ‘I am of Cephas,’ or ‘I am of Christ.’” Though these leaders were faithful servants, the people’s loyalty was drifting toward personalities instead of the Person of Christ Jesus.


Paul immediately asks piercing questions in verse 13: Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul? His point is clear—no human leader can save us. Only Christ was crucified. Only Christ was raised. Only Christ unites His people.

Today, we may not declare allegiance to Paul or Apollos, but we can just as easily cling to pastors, denominations, worship styles (pianos/organs), or personal preferences. When our identity is tied to anything other than Jesus Christ, we risk dividing what He died to make one.


The question for each of us is this: Are we truly “of Christ”? Not just attending a church, not merely following a respected teacher, but surrendered fully to the Lord Jesus Himself. He alone is the foundation.


May we humble ourselves, set aside rivalries, and fix our eyes on the One who was crucified for us. In Christ, we are not divided—we are one.



Prayer:  Lord, help me find my identity in You alone. Guard my heart from division, and unite Your church in the power of the cross. In the name of Christ, I pray. Amen.

The Eternal Word

ree

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God,

and the Word was God.

John 1:1


Today's Bible Reading:  John 1:1-8.


John 1:1-8 is a powerful passage that describes the pre-existence and divinity of Jesus Christ. The opening verse, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God," lays the foundation for the rest of the passage.


The "Word" refers to Jesus Christ, who is the embodiment of God's divine wisdom and power. This verse tells us that Jesus existed before the world began and that He was with God the Father from the very beginning. The fact that the Word was God underlines the divinity of Jesus and His equality with God the Father. 


Verse 2 further emphasizes the pre-existence of Jesus and His eternal nature. This verse tells us that Jesus was with God in the beginning, and that He played a central role in the creation of the world. The fact that all things were made through Him underlines the power and authority of Jesus Christ.


In verse 4, we learn that Jesus is not only the creator of the world but also the source of life. “In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.” This tells us that the light of Christ illuminates the darkness of the world, bringing hope and salvation to those who believe in Him.


Verse 8, introduce John the Baptist, who came to bear witness to the light of Christ. John's role was to prepare the way for Jesus, to help people understand who He was, and to point them towards the salvation that only He could offer.


As we reflect on this passage, we are reminded of the power and majesty of Jesus Christ. He is not just a wise teacher or a great prophet, rather, He is the very embodiment of God's wisdom and power. He created the world, sustains it, and offers salvation to all who believe in Him. May we seek to know Him more deeply and to bear witness to His light in our lives.



Prayer:    Dear God, thank You for Jesus Christ, who is the Light of the world. Help me to know Him more deeply and to bear witness to His light in my life. Guide me as I follow Him and bring glory to Your name. In the Messiah's name I pray. Amen.
