Daily Bible Reading – May 2023, God’s Saving Word: Faith

Dia 10 de 31

May 10

Introduction

Paul uses the example of Abraham to demonstrate that faith in Christ makes one a child of God and a descendant of Abraham and an heir to God’s promises. He contrasts dependence on obeying the Law versus a life of faith that is dependent on God’s promises. Paul assures the Galatians that, through faith, people are put right with God and live in union with Christ Jesus and, as stated in 3:28, there is no difference among the Lord’s followers.

Scripture Reading

Galatians 3:15—4:7

Today’s Key Verse: Galatians 3:26

It is through faith that all of you are God’s children in union with Christ Jesus.

Reflect

What does Paul say regarding the purpose of the Law (3:19-25)? Reread verses 26-29. What does it mean to you to be “in union with Christ Jesus?" What does this say to you about your relationship with other believers?

Pray

Lord Jesus, I am filled with joy because, as a child of God, I know I belong to you and live in union with you. Because I have faith in you, I am assured that I am an heir to God’s promises. I thank you, God, that you have sent the Spirit of your Son into my heart. Amen.

Tomorrow’s Reading

Galatians 4:8-31: Paul continues to express his concern for the Galatians.
