Christian Commentary
Every Good Gift Is From Above
JAMES 1:13,16,17 WEYMOUTH 13 Let no one say when passing through trial, "My temptation is from God;" for God is incapable of being tempted to do evil, and He Himself tempts no one. 16 Do not be deceived, my dearly-loved brethren. 17 Every gift which is good, and every perfect boon, is from above, and comes down from the Father, who is the source of all Light. In Him there is no variation nor the slightest suggestion of change.
God is not doing evil that good may come from it.
"Do not be deceived," the Bible tells us in verse 16 above. Obviously then, brethren CAN be deceived -- and many ARE.
God is NOT the one behind the bad things happening. Deadly storms such as tornados and earthquakes are not acts of my God. Only good comes down from my Father God -- and He does not change or vary from day to day.
John 10:10 LB 10 The thief's purpose is to steal, kill and destroy. My purpose is to give life in all its fullness.
John 10:10 is the dividing line in the Bible. The purpose of the devil is made clear: to harm you. The purpose of the Lord is also clear: life in all its fullness -- life as God intended.
Jesus is for you. The devil is against you. It's as simple as that.
SAY THIS: The devil is against me, so I am against the devil. God is for me, so I submit to God.

Meeting You Where You Are?
Daily Bible Verse & Prayer
Today's Verse - Philippians 2:3-4
Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others.
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Do you remember one of the earliest questions in the Bible? "Where is your brother... Abel?" To which Cain responded: "Am I my brother's keeper?" (Genesis 4:9) Paul's answer to Cain's question is clear and undeniable: It is, YES! As Paul tells the Philippians (and us) in this verse, we must not look only to our "own interests, but also to the interest of others"! We are our brother's keeper! We are our sister's keeper! We look not only to our own interests, but also to the interests of those around us who need God's grace and our love.

My Prayer...
Father, teach me to love your family as you love me. I get so caught up and distracted in my own world and my own problems that I forget to notice those hurting around me. Help me grow more aware and attuned to others' needs, so you may minister to their needs and interests through me. In the powerful name of Jesus, I pray. Amen.

You were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light...
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Our before and after: we were lost, now found; we were darkness, now light. This should be our journey of grace. "I once was lost, but now I'm found, was blind, but now I see," as the old hymn "Amazing Grace" has us sing. If we could only fully grasp what we so easily sing, then maybe our lives would be filled with more grace and our churches with more confident servants of God. Let's "live as children of light" (1 Thessalonians 5:5), transferred from the dominion of darkness into the kingdom of the Son of God's love (Colossians 1:13-14), in whom we have light and life (John 1:4).
My Prayer...
LORD God Almighty, by your grace we know that we stand before you today, welcomed into your glorious presence and received as your beloved children. You have rescued us from the dominion of darkness and flooded our hearts with your glorious light. Thank you for rescuing us from all the traps of the darkness and bringing us into your light. Please guide our hearts and our feet so they will walk your path and show forth your light to those in darkness. Through Jesus and by his authority, we pray. Amen.
Today's Verse - James 3:13
Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show it by his good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom.
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
James promised that if we ask for wisdom in faith, God will grant it to us (James 1:5). This kind of wisdom, God-granted wisdom, reveals itself through a loving, humble lifestyle. In worldly cultures, someone who is smart can easily justify acting arrogantly. In the LORD's eyes, however, smart but arrogant people are worse than those who are silly and foolish. The pridefully intelligent people of our world are woefully ignorant if they are arrogant. True godly wisdom is not about flaunting knowledge, but about living a "good life" characterized by good deeds done with humility. Which more closely resembles you in your walk with Jesus: Wisdom expressed through good deeds and a humble lifestyle, or an arrogant intelligence expressed in deeds and words of superiority and arrogance?
My Prayer...
Loving Shepherd, I know you have always been a wise and loving Father to me. Help me share the care you have lavished on me with the person who needs it most, in my circle of influence, today. Please give me the wisdom to recognize each opportunity and respond with deeds and words shared with them in humility. Please protect me from arrogance and feelings of superiority and privilege. Please humble me gently in the ways that forge me into a more useful tool in your hands. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
