Digging Deeper Daily: By Daily Bible Reading PodcastSample
LAMENTATIONS 4-5:
In yesterday's reading, the sun pierced the dark clouds with this glorious section:
Lam. 3:22 NLT The faithful love of the Lord never ends!
His mercies never cease.
23 Great is his faithfulness;
his mercies begin afresh each morning.
24 I say to myself, “The Lord is my inheritance;
therefore, I will hope in him!”
25 The Lord is good to those who depend on him,
to those who search for him.
Those are only the most frequently quoted verses. There are many other precious verses in Lamentations chapter 3.
PROVERBS 13a:
Here is a favorite proverb from today’s reading:
Pro. 13:7 NLT Some who are poor pretend to be rich;
others who are rich pretend to be poor.
Re-reading EPHESIANS 2:
We have an important spiritual reality expressed in verse 6: Because we are joined as one with Christ, we are already seated with Him, reigning together with Him, in heaven. We don't wait to die to find out if we will get into heaven! We’re already there! In my speaking about this in Indonesia I often say, “We’re not sitting on plastic folding chairs in heaven.” Understanding and believing this spiritual reality should transform our prayers. Imagine how your spirit is seated with Christ right now, and pray from your heavenly position.
