Shame Shame
APRIL 11 & 12, 2026
Daily Reading—Joshua 23-24 / Luke 10:1-24
WHAT GOD HAS SAID:
Luke 9:26 For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he shall come in his own glory, and in his Father’s, and of the holy angels.
WHAT I HAVE SEEN:
Some people act as if they are better than everyone else. They walk around with their nose in the air and look down on all those around them. You know that person, right? Now, imagine you are about to marry this person, and that is how they treat you. Everyone around you can see how terribly they treat you. How embarrassing. Most people will feel bad for you and dislike the prideful one for their attitude. The shame they meant for you turns out to be a shame on them.
Jesus said, If you are ashamed of me before your friends, you will cause me to be embarrassed for you in front of my Father and the angels. Our vanity and pride on earth turn to become humiliation in heaven. Jesus wants to show us off as a bride who completely adores Him. Not to be embarrassed by our arrogance.
WHAT WILL YOU DO:
How will Jesus feel about you on that day?
IF YOU ARE JOURNALING:
Ask yourself, what are MY THOUGHTS concerning this passage and today’s devotion?
Within this reading, do I find a CHALLENGE for my life?
What actions will I take today or this week to meet this CHALLENGE?
WHAT TO DO ON SUNDAY:
On Sundays, we encourage you to attend your local church and listen intently to what God has prepared in your pastor’s heart. Write down all the scriptures he uses in that message.
Then, when you get home, reread those passages for today’s reading.
God has given your pastor exactly what He desires for you to have on that day.
