Devotion 10/25, Great is Thy Faithfulness
“Ever since the time of your forefathers you have turned away from my decrees and have not kept them. Return to me, and I will return to you,” says the Lord Almighty.
Malachi 3:7
Well, we have all been there, haven’t we? We humans are a fickle people. There are times that we are so close to God, we are reading His Word, purposing in our hearts to obey Him, communing with Him in prayer…and then before you know it we slip away from Him for awhile! Could be we get to busy to spend time at His feet, or we have fallen into a sinful practice in our lives…etc. Soon our joy and peace is missing and we wonder why.
Satan devotes much of his time to trying to get our hearts away from Christ, and when we neglect time spent with God, it is very easy for the devil to accomplish his goal!
When our hearts are centered on God as they should be, our actions will follow. He’s never left me, but I have often wandered from Him.
Father, thank You for loving me. Thank You for Your precious Word, the Bible. Help me to spend time in it and to obey You each day, so that I may be a faithful witness for You in all I say and do. in Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.
