Bible Verse of The Day – 11-21-20

1 Peter 2:9 (NKJV) 9 But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light…

We are a chosen people, Lord, and we are crying out to You with a sincere heart in wanting to walk in Your light.

We are a royal priesthood, a holy nation, Your own special people. You called us out of darkness.

Being fake and phony about our walk with You only hurts us and others that we associate with.

If they think we are a believer, and then they see us doing things that unbelievers do…well, that just makes people question You and the legitimacy of Who we say we have faith in.

We are sorry if we have just been going through the motions; If we have learned the Church lingo but deep down we have not changed our lifestyle, our words, actions or our addictions.

We have lived a fake walk up to now.

We have not fooled You and we don’t fool others who are watching. They can tell by our ways who and what we follow. Having a bible in one hand and living a worldly lifestyle in the other won’t cut it any longer.

Today, we sincerely cry out to You, God; forgive us. We want all of You and Your teachings/statutes to touch our hearts and change us so that we may walk in your ways each day.

That we may share love, and not hate. That we may not gossip, but turn away from those conversations that may lead us otherwise. That we may not be negative, but instead, speak life into situations and into peoples’ lives.

Help us, God, to be Who You say we are; Your own special people. Amen.
