Why Do We Need Proof?
MARCH 21 & 22, 2026
Daily Reading—Deuteronomy 6-8 / Luke 1:1-38
WHAT GOD HAS SAID:
Luke 1:20 And, behold, thou shalt be dumb, and not able to speak, until the day that these things shall be performed, because thou believest not my words, which shall be fulfilled in their season.
WHAT I HAVE SEEN:
Zacharias, the father of John the Baptist, was stricken dumb from the time he was told he would have a son until he was born. Was it for a sign? Well, yes, it was a sign that what the angel had said was true. But why did he need a sign? Our verse today tells us. “Because thou believest not my words.”
Jesus’ life, death, burial, and resurrection are the signs of God’s commitment to our salvation. Yet even with this clear sign of the love of God toward us, there are still many who believe not the words of God. The Bible says faith comes by hearing, not seeing.
WHAT WILL YOU DO:
Should the God who created us, sustains us, supplies our every need,
and prepared a place for us eternally; need somehow to prove Himself to us?
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.
