This I Confess
AUGUST 1 & 2, 2026
Daily Reading—Job 39-42 / Acts 26
WHAT GOD HAS SAID:
Acts 24:14-15 But this I confess unto thee, that after the way which they call heresy, so worship I the God of my fathers, believing all things which are written in the law and in the prophets: And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust.
WHAT I HAVE SEEN:
Has anyone ever put you on the spot and asked you what you believe? Wow, what a deep and diverse answer many might give! However, I think Paul does a good job of answering this in just a few lines. He said, I believe in the written Word of God and believe in a resurrection for all who have ever lived.
Doesn’t that explain what we confess to believe? I believe the Word of God. That Jesus, the prophesied Messiah, came to pay the sin debt of all who confess their faith in Him. I also believe in a resurrection for all. A resurrection for the just, saved by faith in Christ, unto life eternal. For the unjust, or those who never confessed faith in Christ, unto everlasting punishment.
WHAT WILL YOU DO:
This is what I confess to believe. What about you?
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 the heart of your pastor. 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.
