Daily Devotional

Do not dismiss prayer just because nothing happens, even when you don’t see results. Prayer works! Prayer changes things. God is never slow. He does things in His time. However, God’s “right time” may differ from our expectations. This should not discourage us. Failure is part of success. The more you fail, the closer you get to achieving your goal. Tough times don’t last, but tough people do.

Again, the fact that “everybody is doing it” does not mean that God is not offended by it. Do not take God’s mercy for granted. Jesus says that on that day, many would go about their daily routines, eating, drinking, buying, selling, planting, building, and so on, and judgment would happen like a surprise. Then, we would all face the consequences of our actions.
