Light for My Path Daily Devotion

Bible Reading

So there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God. For the one who enters God’s rest also rests from his own work, just as God rested from his work. Therefore, let us make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will fall into the same pattern of disobedience. For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any double-edged sword. It penetrates even to the point of dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow, even being able to judge the ideas and thoughts of the heart. And there is no creature hidden from him, but everything is uncovered and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we will give an account. (Hebrews 4:9-13 EHV)

Hymn ELH 586:2 How Blest Are They Who Hear

God’s Word a treasure is to me,
Through sorrow’s night my sun shall be,
The shield of faith in battle.
The Father’s hand has written there
My title as his child and heir,
“The kingdom’s thine forever.”
That promise fails me never.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, thank You for providing eternal rest to all who believe in Your Son, Jesus Christ as their only Savior. Through Your Word, show me my sins, bring me to repentance and remind me of the forgiveness won for me by Jesus. In His name I pray. Amen.
