God’s people faced the accusation of robbing Him due to their cold hearts, lacking joy, peace, and purpose. In love, He called them to return through joyful giving, promising blessings. Similarly, as followers of Christ, we lose joy and peace when giving feels burdensome. Today, God invites us to rediscover worship and discipleship by investing in Him with joy, peace, and hope for our Gospel Mission.
In Colossians 3, Paul continues the theme of the supremacy of Jesus Christ and His sufficient work in our lives. In fact Paul takes it to another level by proclaiming that when we put our faith in Jesus, our lives are hidden with Christ. In light of this joyful assurance we are called to seek the things that are above and to live as the true citizens of God’s glorious kingdom.
Our suffering can become a window into the immense love God has for us!
In Joshua 23, Joshua gives his final words to God’s people, reminding them of God’s grace, His promises, and the consequences of not upholding their covenant with Him. He points to a better covenant through Jesus Christ, filled with joy, grace, and eternal hope through Jesus’ faithful obedience.
God is faithful and fulfills His promises. In Joshua 21, He gave His people land, rest, and victory, foreshadowing greater promises through Jesus Christ: the Kingdom of Heaven, eternal rest, and victory over sin and death. God’s faithfulness brings joy, grace, and enduring hope.
