Today’s Scripture: 1 Samuel 15:24-26 The Message – Saul gave in and confessed, "I've sinned. I've trampled roughshod over God's Word and your instructions. I cared more about pleasing the people. I let them tell me what to do. Oh, absolve me of my sin! Take my hand and lead me to the altar so I can worship God!" But Samuel refused: "No, I can't come alongside you in this. You rejected God's command. Now God has rejected you as king over Israel."
Today’s Word: Consequences
Today’s Prayer: Dear Heavenly Father, it really doesn’t matter how sorry I am or how much you love me if I speed and cause an accident – even though I’m forgiven – my sin carries a consequence just like Saul’s did. You never stopped loving him but he lost his kingship. You never stop loving me, but I probably will get a ticket. Lord, forgive me for thinking you will cover all my mistakes. Sometimes you do and I thank you for those, but that’s no excuse for continuing to do things I know are wrong. Forgive me and help me to do better. Amen.
