Be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, "I will never leave you nor forsake you." — Hebrews 13:5

 Being with other people, seeing a counselor, or talking on the phone won't make loneliness go away. The solution is friendship. We who are not alone can help in that situation. We must make friends with the lonely. 

But hanging around for someone to become your friend won't help you get over your loneliness. The solution is provided in Hebrews 13:1-6, yet the issue is not addressed. Jesus Christ must be the center of our attention. He promises to be a supporter who won't abandon us (vv. 5–6). 

Jesus is empathetic and attentive at all times. You can rely on him to support you in any circumstance.

Jesus is concerned. The Savior never leaves our side to bolster, console, assist, or direct us when the load of solitude would crush the soul and feelings of loneliness would engulf us.

Go out . . . and bring in here the poor and the maimed and the lame and the blind. — Luke 14:21

 Similar to this, sometimes people's wilful opposition to God's demands of surrender needs to be broken down by the painful setbacks of life. The parable Jesus told in Luke 14 serves as a reminder that adversity can be a benefit if it prompts us to accept God's invitation. Only the impoverished and underprivileged, according to him, accepted the invitation to the banquet. The others were very independent and preoccupied. 

Adversities are frequently required to help us determine what actually matters, whether our need is salvation or the growth of Christlike character. We pray that we will interpret them as God's tender invitation to join him at the "poor man's banquet."

By acknowledging our weakness, we make way for God's power. If we just believe, God will extend to us His immeasurable grace, but we won't be able to experience His love until we recognize our need.

Thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. — 1 Corinthians 15:57

 The Israelites were in need of a champion more than anyone. The taunts of the Philistine strongman Goliath kept their army at bay and humiliated them everyday as they camped in the Valley of Elah. 

Jesse's young shepherd son David had brought food for his military brothers. He was enraged to hear Goliath making fun of the Israelites, so he requested permission to confront him. David had faith that the same God who had saved him from the lion and the bear in 1 Samuel 17:34–37 would also deliver him from the giant, and He did.

David's victory serves as a reminder of Jesus Christ's triumph. We required a defender because we were helplessly imprisoned by sin. God then dispatched His Son, Jesus, to rescue us. He underwent all of our human trials when He came to Earth as a man (Heb. 2:14–15), and He engaged in combat on our behalf. Jesus defeated sin and death entirely through His death and resurrection (1 Cor. 15:54–57). Furthermore, His victory gives us hope for success in our day-to-day walk with God. 

However, we cannot count on success in our own power. We must rely on the strength and direction of the Holy Spirit. The triumph our Champion has brought us will therefore be more completely appreciated as we go in trust beside God.

By God's grace, we can overcome any giants we come up against. I shall extol the virtues of my beloved Redeemer and speak of how He triumphs over sin, death, and hell.

Because you have rejected the word of the Lord, He also has rejected you. — 1 Samuel 15:23

 God expected the king to entirely obey Him when He dispatched Saul to battle the Amalekites for what they had done to Israel (Ex. 17:8; 1 Sam. 15:2). When he didn't, Saul disappointed God as well as Israel. He also had to bear the consequences of his disobedience. God, Samuel informed him, "has rejected you from being king" (v. 23). 

The Lord loves us and knows what is best for our lives since He is a wonderful Father. We must make every effort to follow what He has commanded in the Bible, His Word, in order to demonstrate our trust in Him. He deserves our whole submission.

The price of disobedience far outweighs the price of obedience. Let Me plan your days; Follow my instructions with obedience.

Do not pursue your own desires; instead attempt to follow Me.

He made known His ways to Moses, His acts to the children of Israel. — Psalm 103:7

 Most Christians would rather witness God work amazing miracles than spend time with Him and discover His ways. 

According to the passage for today, God revealed His marvelous deeds to the people of Israel, but He "made known His ways" to Moses. In the midst of a major dilemma, Moses fervently begged in Exodus 33, "If I have found grace in Your sight, show me now Your way." More than witnessing yet another great miracle, he yearned to understand God and His purposes for His people. So it seems sense that the Lord spoke to him "as a man speaks to his friend" (v. 11). 

You will be content if your desire to know God intimately outweighs your desire to witness His powerful miracles.

Knowing God means becoming familiar with both His ways and His deeds. It used to be the blessing, but now it's the Lord; it used to be the emotion, but now it's His Word;

When I once desired His gift, it is now His to own; when I once sought healing, it is now His to possess.

God, be merciful to me a sinner! — Luke 18:13

 That applies to salvation as well. One cannot be free from shame and condemnation until he is ready to say, "I am a sinner in need of salvation." 

Ever used the phrase "I plead guilty"? If not, start right away. You will never be able to save yourself, so put your faith in the Lord Jesus and accept Him as your Savior. You will then experience the joy of forgiveness and freedom once you are freed from the guilt and influence of sin.

Fear comes from sin; liberation comes through confession. When we acknowledge our sin, admit our guilt, and put our faith in Christ's atonement, we will become internally pure.

Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage. — Galatians 5:1

 Some people spend their entire lives looking backwards. They long for the "good old days" when everything seemed to be going well. According to what they believe, families were stronger, Christians were nobler, and people were happier. 

The Hebrews of antiquity were experts at exalting the repulsive past. They had been in a dire situation as Egyptian slaves! However, as soon as Moses freed them from servitude, they started romanticizing the "good old days." Many of them genuinely desired returning to Egypt so they might once more yoke their necks and endure Pharaoh's whipping. It should come as no surprise that God revoked their passports to the Promised Land.

To return to the "good old days" of the church, some Christians yearn. Which church, though? Ever since the time of Paul, believers have faced enormous challenges. Sexual immorality (1 Cor. 5:1), heresy (Gal. 1:6-7), and division (Acts 15:1-2) were all problems in the early church. The first century, the sixteenth century, and the twentieth century were not the church's "good old days." 

Do not fall into the trap of looking back, unless it is to reflect on a lesson learned or to exalt God's accomplishments. The best is always yet to come for people whose lives are based on Christ.

Living in the past devalues the present and neglects the future. How frequently God grants success, and we celebrate the achievement, while a present opportunity slips past its bloom and becomes a seed.

You shall teach [these words] diligently to your children. — Deuteronomy 6:7

 As a priest, Eli had accomplished much for the Lord, but as a dad, he fell short. He put off disciplining his sons for too long, and when he finally did, his reprimand was so ineffective that they paid no attention. Eli's life came to a tragic end because his sons disobeyed the Lord's commands. 

The risk can be reduced, but even the most loving parents cannot guarantee that their children won't walk away from the Lord. Children are more likely to succeed in life if they know their parents expect obedience and will discipline disobedience, especially when discipline is fair and administered in love.

One of the most valuable assets in life is a strong family. Let's do all in our power to create a community where each person is treated with love and respect.

Christian homes are constructed; they don't just appear. Our children are a gift from God, given to us on loan from heaven, for the purpose of raising them in the Lord and demonstrating His love.

It is more blessed to give than to receive. — Acts 20:35

 People who take charge of their lives and make an effort to not burden others are admired. Such independence is admirable. However, if every individual in need in the world—which includes all of us at some point—refused assistance, nobody would have the chance to do so. 

When we read Jesus' words in Acts 20:35, "It is more blessed to give than to receive," we have a tendency to just think about the blessing of giving. Although our Lord did not suggest it was improper to accept a gift, he did indicate that our main focus should be on giving rather than receiving. Giving and receiving are both admirable, gratifying, and even required in reality.

Perhaps praising receiving in this age of greed is hazardous. When given this less significant but nonetheless valuable blessing, however, many earnest and well-intentioned people balk. They retort, "Oh, I can't take that!" or "You really shouldn't!" 

Why are we this way? Personally, I've come to the conclusion that it frequently stems from a desire to not feel dependent on others, or from pride, or from a want to be in control. However, these covert tendencies are egotistical and go against the teachings of the One who declared, "It is more blessed to give than to receive." 

Perhaps we should practice being a gracious recipient in order to allow others to benefit from our generosity.

Like gracious giving, grateful receiving also stems from the heart. I gave out of excessive pride, and the blessing withdrew until I cried humbly to the Lord and discovered how to accept.

Let us run with endurance the race that is set before us. — Hebrews 12:1

 Few experiences compare to the difficulty and thrill of mountain climbing. Participants in this endurance and competence test enjoy comparing peaks and exchanging stories. When European mountaineers get together to share tales, they frequently talk about crossing a certain tomb on the way to a well-known summit. He Died Climbing and a man's name are written on the marker. 

Mountain climbing is a metaphor for living a life of faith in my opinion. We are to keep climbing the ladder of life—learning more about God, deepening our relationship with Christ, strengthening our resistance to temptation, and moving forward in sharing the gospel with the unreached.

In the words of the Hebrews author, "Let us run with endurance." The phrase "with endurance" can also mean "with perseverance," or more frequently, "to the end." 

Such a man of God was Joshua. He started his "climb" in Egypt and finished it in the Promised Land. He achieved amazing victories. According to Joshua 24:31, "Israel served the Lord all the days of Joshua." Joshua continued to exhort Israel to serve God faithfully to the end of his life (v. 23). 

Help us to serve You faithfully, Lord Jesus. May we continue to climb all the way to the end.

As we progress higher, faith grows stronger. I want to reach the highest point and catch a glimpse of the glory that shines; however, I won't stop praying until I reach heaven: "Lord, lead me on to higher ground."

A merry heart does good, like medicine. — Proverbs 17:22

 Although the Bible is not a psychology work, it offers the best advice for achieving happiness right now. According to Proverbs 17:22, for instance, "a merry heart does good, like medicine, but a broken spirit dries the bones."

However, such change can be brought about through faith in God. People who place their faith in God's goodness and look past their current problem cannot help but be glad.

Our Lord's repeated use of the phrase "Be of good cheer" (Mt. 9:2,22, 14:27, Acts 23:11) is important. He gives us this message of comfort in the face of life's numerous challenges: "Be of good cheer, I have overcome the world" (John 16:33).

God . . . will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but . . . will also make the way of escape. — 1 Corinthians 10:13

 Load-limit signs can be observed on roads, bridges, and elevators. Engineers calculate the precise amount of stress that various materials and manufactured goods can safely withstand given the knowledge that excessive stress can result in serious damage or total collapse. We must not go above the maximum load, according to posted warnings. 

The load limits that apply to humans differ from person to person. For instance, some people are better able to withstand the pressure of temptation and trial than others, but everyone has a breaking point and can only take so much.

We occasionally feel as though people and situations are straining us beyond our capacity. But because He is aware of our limits, the Lord never enables us to face challenges that are too great for us to handle. This is particularly true when sin tempts us. "God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted beyond what you are able," declares 1 Corinthians 10:13. 

So, have bravery when temptations and hardships come your way! Keep in mind that your heavenly Father is aware of the pressures you can withstand in life. Make use of His might. There will never be a greater temptation than that!

You won't succumb to sin if you yield to God. When we are confronted with grief or fear, His love will not forsake us; He will lead us with His eye. And when we are on the verge of fainting and failing, He will supply what is lacking and enable us to succeed.
