TODAY'S EPISODE:
Welcome to today's episode of the Daily Radio Bible, where we dive into the profound analogies the Apostle Paul uses to describe the essence of our faith. This April 4th devotion delves into the imagery of believers as fragrant perfumes, living letters, and fragile clay jars that encase the priceless treasure of Christ's presence within us. We'll explore how this internal treasure radiates God's power, affirming that our strength comes not from ourselves, but from Him.
Our conversation will also navigate the often troubling narratives found in the Old Testament, and how they can challenge our perceptions of God's character. We're reminded that through Jesus, we receive the light that pierces the darkness and allows us to understand the glory of God.
In this episode, we emphasize that the exact representation of God's heart is found in Jesus, who casts out all uncertainty and fills us with his light. Join us as we learn to focus our gaze on Jesus, not only while engaging with scripture but in every aspect of our lives, as we live out our days as fragile vessels enshrined with His spirit. Let's embark on this illuminating spiritual journey together.
TODAY'S PRAYERS:
Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen.
Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.
And now Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon. Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope. Where there is darkness, light. And where there is sadness, Joy. Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love. For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life. Amen
And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray...
Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, they kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.
Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ. Amen.
