“Stand firm therefore, having girded your loins with truth” (Ephesians. 6:14).

Truthfulness is the best defense against Satan’s lies.

The first piece of armor Paul mentions in Ephesians 6:14 is the belt of truth.

Roman soldiers of his day wore a tunic, which was a large square piece of material with holes for the head and arms.

A belt kept the tunic from flying loosely and getting in the way in the midst of battle.

The phrase “having girded your loins” was commonly used for gathering up the loose material of one’s tunic or robe when preparing for battle or travel.

It speaks of preparedness, as in Exodus 12:11, where God tells the children of Israel to gird their loins for their exodus from Egypt.

Jesus used it in a figurative sense in Luke 12:35, where He warns us to gird our loins or “be dressed in readiness” for His second coming.

Peter said we’re to gird our minds for action (1 Peter. 1:13).

The Greek word translated “truth” in Ephesians 6:14 can refer either to the content of that which is true or to an attitude of truthfulness.

Both are implied in the verse. In Ephesians 4 Paul combines both aspects in warning us not to be “tossed here and there by waves, and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, by craftiness in deceitful scheming” (vv. 14-15).

Instead, we are to embrace sound doctrine and always speak the truth in love.

The way to defend yourself against the cunning deceptions of Satan is to gird yourself with a thorough knowledge of God’s Word and a firm commitment to obedience.

Yet many Christians remain vulnerable because they’re unwilling to do that.

Just as Paul exhorted the Philippians to excel in knowledge and discernment and to remain sincere and blameless until in Christ’s presence (Philippians. 1:9-10), so you must also do the same.

Never be content with your present level of spirituality. Keep learning and growing.

Demonstrate an attitude of truthfulness that reveals your commitment to God’s Word and your readiness for battle.

Prayer

Is your life characterized by truthfulness? If not, you’re a ready target for Satan’s schemes. Confess it to the Lord and ask Him to cleanse your heart and give you a love for His truth. Begin today to apply His Word to your life.

Further Reading

Read verses 1-4 and 13-15 of 2 Corinthians 11, noting the tactics of Satan and his servants.

Daily Devotional “The Love God Hates”

Daily Devotional “The Love God Hates”
Be different!
September 13, 2023

“Do not love the world, nor the things in the world.

If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world.

And the world is passing away, and also its lusts; but the one who does the will of God abides forever” (1 John 2:15-17).

If you love the world, you’re engaging in a love God hates.

Satan, from the very beginning of his rebellious activities, has been developing an invisible spiritual system of evil designed to oppose God and enslave people to sin.

The apostle John identified that system as “the world,” and warned us not to love it.

Satan has had many centuries to develop his evil system, so it is very effective on those who reject Christ.

First John 5:19 explains that while we as Christians belong to God, “the whole world lies in the power of the evil one,” whom Jesus called, “the ruler of this world” (John 12:31).

In John 8:44 He identified certain unbelievers as children of their father, the devil, who is a murderer and the father of lies.

That’s how completely unbelievers are identified with Satan.

As a believer, you are identified with God. You have been delivered out of the domain of darkness and placed into the kingdom of Christ (Colossians. 1:13).

You are from God and have overcome the evil one because the Holy Spirit who indwells you is greater than he who controls the world (1 John 4:4).

Sadly, Christians sometimes flirt with the very things they’ve been saved from. Don’t do that.

Satan and his system have nothing to offer you. They are doomed! First John 2:17 says, “The world is passing away, and also its lusts; but the one who does the will of God abides forever.”

Prayer

•If you’ve been flirting with the world, ask God’s forgiveness.
•Praise God that someday Satan and his evil system will be vanquished.

Further Reading

Read the epistle of 1 John, noting the contrasts between the children of God and the children of Satan.

Daily Devotional “Living One Day At A Time”

Daily Devotional “Living One Day At A Time”
Be different!
September 12, 2023

“‘Do not be anxious for tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own’” (Matthew 6:34).

The believer is not to worry about his future.

British pastor Martyn Lloyd-Jones said, “Although it is very right to think about the future, it is very wrong to be controlled by it.”

He was right, because worry is a tremendous force that will endeavor to defeat you.

It will try to destroy you today by making you upset and anxious.

But if it loses today, it will take you into the future until it finds something to make you worry about.

In Matthew 6:34 Jesus says that you have enough to deal with today.

Take the resources of today for the needs of today, or you will lose the joy of today.

Lack of joy is a sin too. Many people lose their joy because of worry about tomorrow, and they miss the victory God gives them today.

That is not fair to Him. God gives you a glorious and blissful day today; live in the light and fullness of the joy of that day, and use the resources God supplies.

Don’t push yourself into the future and forfeit the joy of today over some tomorrow that may never happen.

Learn this one little statement: fear is a liar. It will cause you to lose the joy of today.

What’s more, God gives strength for only one day at a time. He doesn’t give you grace for tomorrow until tomorrow.

When the Bible says, “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today, yes and forever” (Hebrews. 13:8), it means He will be doing the same thing tomorrow that He was doing yesterday.

If you have any questions about the future, look at the past. Did He sustain you then? He will sustain you in the future.

Since there is no past, present, or future with Him, there is no need for you to worry.

Prayer

Praise God for being the same yesterday, today, and forever.

Further Reading

Read Lamentations 3:21-24.

•What never ceases and never fails (v. 22)?
•What does that say about God (v. 23)?
•What does that give you (v. 21)?

Daily Devotional “Seeking God’s Kingdom”

Daily Devotional “Seeking God’s Kingdom”
Be different!
September 11, 2023

“‘. . . All these things shall be added to you’” (Matthew 6:33).

God will provide for those who seek what is eternal.

What did Jesus mean when He said we are to seek God’s kingdom first?

It means our top priority in life should be to seek what is eternal. That was the priority for the apostle Paul.

In Acts 20 he was ready to leave for Jerusalem to defend the faith, not knowing if he might be put in prison or lose his life.

The prospect of persecution did not deter him, for he said, “I do not consider my life of any account as dear to myself” (v. 24).

He was not concerned about how long he would live or worried about what he would eat or wear.

Instead, he wanted to “finish [his] course, and the ministry which [he] received from the Lord Jesus” (v. 24).

Seeking the kingdom means you want Christ’s rule to be manifest in your life as righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit (Romans. 14:17).

So, when the lost see those spiritual qualities in your life instead of worry, they know the kingdom of God is there.

That is an attractive testimony that the Lord can use to bring the lost to Himself.

Seeking God’s kingdom means desiring to extend His kingdom.

Seeking the kingdom also means you long for Jesus to return in His millennial glory.

We will be joint-heirs with Christ (Romans. 8:1-7), reign with Him forever (Revelation. 22:5), live in a new heaven and earth throughout all eternity (21:1), and have all the majesty and riches of eternal Heaven (21:1—22:5).

There’s no need to be preoccupied or worried about material things since the whole earth is going to be destroyed and the Lord is going to make a new one.

Instead of seeking riches, “seek . . . His righteousness” (Matthew. 6:33).

Pursue godliness and holiness, and “all these things shall be added to you” (v. 33). God will provide for those who live a righteous life.

Prayer

•According to Matthew 6:33, are the priorities of your life in the right order?
•Confess and forsake any sin, and thank the Lord for the privilege of serving Him.

Daily Devotional “What About The Holy Spirit”

Daily Devotional “What About The Holy Spirit”
Be different!
September 10, 2023

“The one who keeps His commandments abides in Him, and He in him.

And we know by this that He abides in us, by the Spirit which He has given us” (1 John 3:24).

Because the Holy Spirit affects every area of the Christian life, it is vital that we have a balanced and correct view of His role.

The church’s understanding of the Spirit’s Person and ministry has been seriously distorted over the past few decades.

Charismatics have given an undue emphasis to certain pentecostal gifts so that subjective experience is often elevated over objective scriptural truth.

At the same time, many non-charismatics have overreacted to charismatic excesses by almost ignoring the Holy Spirit.

For most, an in-depth study of the Spirit does not fit with the pragmatic, psychological approach to solving spiritual problems.

But we can’t afford to go to either extreme; otherwise we’ll miss out on what it really means to know the Spirit and to minister by His power.

He is indispensable in saving us, enabling us to obey Jesus Christ, and ultimately perfecting us in glory.

Paul urged the Galatian believers not to abandon the Holy Spirit but to lean completely on Him.

“Are you so foolish? Having begun by the Spirit, are you now being perfected by the flesh?” (Galatians. 3:3).

Too many Christians are wasting time looking to seminars, gimmicks, counselors, and novel interpretations of old truths to uncover “the secret” to the abundant Christian life.

But the key to such living is not a mystery or a secret.

The sufficiency of the Holy Spirit’s ministry, as revealed through the pages of God’s fully reliable Word, is all the information and resources we’ll ever need to live fruitful and prosperous spiritual lives.

In today’s verse, the apostle John is speaking of Christ’s indwelling presence in the believer’s life, which the Holy Spirit reveals to us.

Therefore the Spirit is working with the Lord Jesus in encouraging you, guiding you, enlightening you, and empowering you for every good work (see John 14:16-20; John 16:13).

By understanding the Spirit’s role and allowing Him to work in you daily, you’ll begin to see your life becoming more like Christ each day.

Prayer

Pray that God would grant you and everyone in your church a proper and balanced understanding of the Spirit’s role.

Further Reading

Jesus is portrayed as the Good Shepherd in John 10. Read that chapter, and list the major characteristics He has as our Shepherd.

Daily Devotional “Two Spirits Or One”

Daily Devotional “Two Spirits Or One”
Be different!
September 8, 2023

“There is one body and one Spirit just as also you were called in one hope of your calling” (Ephesians 4:4).

Although there were distinctions of ministry, one and the same Holy Spirit has been at work in both the Old and New Covenants.

The famous radio broadcast of October 30, 1938, in which Orson Welles and his fellow actors fooled many of the American people into thinking an actual invasion from Mars was occurring, is a classic example of how miscommunication can drastically distort people’s understanding of the facts.

Because many listeners failed to hear the disclaimer about the fictional nature of the War of the Worlds dramatization, thousands were panicked into believing that Martians were beginning to invade New York City and the rest of the East Coast.

Not many hours after the program ended, most people realized it was not a broadcast of actual events.

Nevertheless, apologies and clarifications were necessary in subsequent days.

Scriptural truth is seldom miscommunicated with that same kind of sensational result.

But that doesn’t mean we never need to correct previous thinking about certain doctrines.

One of these concerns the Holy Spirit. Due to popular teaching on the dissimilarities between the Old and New Covenants, many Christians have understood the Spirit’s Person and role as being sharply different between the Testaments.
 
But the apostle Paul makes it clear in Ephesians 4:4 that there is but one Spirit (also see 1 Corinthians. 12:11, 13).

Paul also knew that since the Holy Spirit is God, He is therefore unchanging; the same Spirit has been at work throughout redemptive history.

We can believe with certainty that the Holy Spirit will always be the saving agent who draws people to the Lord.

That’s what Jesus taught when He instructed the Jewish teacher Nicodemus about the new birth (John 3:5-10).

There are important distinctives between the Holy Spirit’s Old Covenant and New Covenant roles (see Acts 1:5).

His New Covenant work is more intimate and personal for believers, but His essential character has always been the same.

We should rejoice that there is no confusion between two Spirits, but that there is one Holy Spirit who has been active in God’s plan, from Genesis 1:1 right to the present and for all eternity.

Prayer

Thank the Lord for giving you a clear understanding of the Holy Spirit’s oneness.

Further Reading

Read John 3:1-15.

•What should Nicodemus already have understood about the new birth?
•How far back does Jesus reach to make an analogy about God’s method of salvation?

Daily Devotional “The Spirit Of Transformation”

Daily Devotional “The Spirit Of Transformation”
Be different!
September 8, 2023

“But we all, with unveiled face beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as from the Lord, the Spirit” (2 Corinthians 3:18).

The Holy Spirit’s transforming work is a central part of the believer’s sanctification.

The children’s fable The Ugly Duckling wonderfully illustrates the Holy Spirit’s transforming work in believers. The story is about an ugly young bird who can’t fit in with any of the other animals.

It’s not until he encounters the beautiful swans that his life starts changing.

The swans are an irresistible attraction for the duckling, something he can’t forget after they leave for the winter.

Finally he makes the amazing discovery the following spring that in spite of his feelings of inferiority, he is not a duck but a swan, just like those creatures he has admired.

The days immediately following our conversion to Christ are often similar to the ugly duckling’s final experiences.

We have a great sense of sinful unworthiness and yet a powerful attraction to Jesus Christ.

We respond that way because we now know that character-wise He represents all we were created to be. And we soon come to realize that it’s both a humbling and exciting process to be transformed into Christ’s image.

Today’s Scripture, my favorite verse, is an excellent short description of the Spirit’s transforming work.

We won’t see the glory of the Lord perfectly right away, but we begin to see it with greater clarity once we know Jesus Christ by faith.

Paul is referring to our basic sanctification, which is a progressive process by which the Spirit changes us from one level of Christlikeness to another.

The end result will be our glorified position in Heaven, which is the Holy Spirit’s goal for us and the reason for our hope.

The Spirit reveals what we will be in Christ: “Beloved, now we are children of God, and it has not appeared as yet what we shall be.

We know that, when He appears, we shall be like Him, because we shall see Him just as He is” (1 John 3:2).

Prayer

Pray that you would focus more on Christ and less on yourself as the Spirit transforms your life.

Further Reading

Read Psalm 40:1-10.

•What general attitude does David have in that passage?
•How many times does he mention God there?

  • If we have reasonable grounds to believe an individual has been, is, or may be victim of financial abuse
  • If it is reasonable to expect collection and use with consent would compromise the availability or the accuracy of the information and the collection is reasonable for purposes related to investigating a breach of an agreement or a contravention of the laws of Canada or a province
  • If disclosure is required to comply with a subpoena, warrant, court order, or rules of the court relating to the production of records
  • If it was produced by an individual in the course of their employment, business, or profession and the collection is consistent with the purposes for which the information was produced

If you would at any time like to review or change the information in your account or terminate your account, you can:
  • Log in to your account settings and update your user account.

Cookies and similar technologies: Most Web browsers are set to accept cookies by default. If you prefer, you can usually choose to set your browser to remove cookies and to reject cookies.

12. CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES

Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track (‘DNT’) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage no uniform technology standard for recognising and implementing DNT signals has been finalised. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this privacy notice.

Daily Devotional “Rejecting The World”

Daily Devotional “Rejecting The World”
Be different!
September 7, 2023



 

“Do not love the world, nor the things in the world.

If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him” (1 John 2:15).

The world is opposed to everything God stands for.

Loving the world begins with thinking that God doesn’t know what’s best for you and is trying to cheat you out of something you deserve.

That thought soon blossoms into a willingness to disregard God’s warnings altogether and take whatever Satan has to offer.

Love of the world started in the Garden of Eden and continues to this day.

Genesis 3:6 says, “When the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was desirable to make one wise, she took from its fruit and ate; and she gave also to her husband with her, and he ate.”

What made them think the fruit was good for food or able to make them wise?

God didn’t tell them that. In fact, He warned them that they would die if they ate the fruit (Genesis. 2:17).

But Eve believed the serpent’s lie and Adam followed suit.

Satan continues to propagate his lies but you needn’t fall prey to them if you love God and remember that the world is opposed to everything He stands for.

It is spiritually dead; void of the Spirit (John 14:17); morally defiled; and dominated by pride, greed, and evil desires.

It produces wrong opinions, selfish aims, sinful pleasures, demoralizing influences, corrupt politics, empty honors, and fickle love.

You can’t love the world and God at the same time because love knows no rivals.

It gives its object first place. If you love God, He will have first place in your life.

If you love the world, the love of the Father isn’t in you (1 John 2:15).

Galatians 1:3-5 explains that Jesus “gave Himself for our sins, that He might deliver us out of this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, to whom be the glory forevermore.”

Christ died to deliver us from Satan’s evil system.

What greater motivation could there be to reject the world and live to God’s glory?

Prayer

Ask God for greater wisdom and grace to resist the world’s influences.

According to Ephesians 6:10-18, how can you as a believer protect yourself against Satan’s evil system?
