It Made No Sense Before
AUGUST 29 & 30, 2026
Daily Reading—Psa. 114-118 / 1 Co. 4
WHAT GOD HAS SAID:
1 Corinthians 2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
WHAT I HAVE SEEN:
Before I accepted Christ as Saviour, when I would read the Bible, it often made no sense. Even though I was raised in church and knew all the stories, they never came together to become real to me. After I was saved, it was like reading a new book for the first time. The stories were the same, but now they spoke to me personally and had become clearer than before. Still today, I continually learn new truths when reading it.
One reason is found in today’s verse. The unsaved, or natural man, cannot understand spiritual things. It is not until the Holy Spirit takes up residence in our hearts that He then illuminates what was written.
WHAT WILL YOU DO:
Isn’t reading a living book that is personal much more enjoyable than just reading plain old literature?
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.
