SPIRITUAL
DIARY FOR 07-26-03
My
Worship Time Focus: Love in the home
Bible
Reading & Meditation Reference: Hebrews 13:4
1. Message of the verse: “4 Let marriage be held in honor among all,
and let the marriage bed be undefiled; for fornicators and adulterers God will
judge.” (NASB) “Give honor to marriage, and remain faithful
to one another in marriage. God will surely
judge people who are immoral and those who commit adultery.” (NLT)
The writer
now moves to love at home, and what better way can this be shown that in a
proper marriage between one man and one woman.
Marriage in today’s society is under attack from the evil one as same
sex marriages are being talked about as if it were a natural thing to do, and
even the supreme court, (what a contrast in terms) has gone against God’s Law
in recent weeks judging it okay for homosexual acts. God says that He is the One who is the True
Supreme Ruler and He will judge men and women for these acts against God and
His Law. There is no room for adultery
in a marriage and continued acts of this type will result in judgment form the
Lord.
A good
marriage results in a good family, and that is like a bit of heaven on earth.
2. Spiritual meaning for my life today: Reading this verse brings back some painful
memories to me, and I am thankful for the grace and forgiveness of God, and for
His love in giving me a wonderful faithful wife.
The Word of God was convicting and challenging to my heart
as I read it over this morning.
My
Steps of Faith Today: By
the grace of God to be a good husband to my wife.
Memory verses for the week:
Psalm 121:1-5
1.
I will lift up my eyes to the mountains; From whence shall
my help come?
2.
My help comes from the Lord, Who made heaven and earth.
3.
He will not allow your foot to sleep; He who keeps you will
not slumber.
4.
Behold, He who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.
5.
The Lord is your keeper; The Lord is your shade on your
right hand.
