A daily devotional through the Bible speaking with God as Adam and Eve may have in the garden east of Eden. Our website http://alittlewalkwithgod.com
Do you stand in the shadow of someone? Do you feel jealous toward someone who has taken the limelight you once had? Did you ever consider that God has given that person their mission and He has something else in mind for you? John ultimately found himself in Herod’s prison and beheaded for preaching the truth to Herod and his wife. God probably won’t ask you to await execution for Him, but He might. Are you willing to stand the test for Him? The day might come when you must do just that, you know.
The real issue, God has plans for you that are yours and yours alone. He has plans for those around you that belong to them. God gives each person responsibilities and task fit for them. You cannot carry their cross and neither can they carry yours. Together, though, His ultimate plans for this world are completed so that His children find eternal rest in Him and the wicked never plague you again. Instead, as John says, they will experience God's wrath.
Today’s Bible reading plans include:
Ready - John 3:22-36
Set - John 3-4
Go! - John 2-4
