TIMES OF REFRESHING ONLINE DAILY DEVOTIONAL www.thefountspring.org
DATE: TUESDAY, 12 MARCH 2024
So, evidently, placing our hope in Christ is a deliberate act of entrusting our lives to the One who is unchanging and unwavering in His faithfulness. It’s a recognition that the world offers many temporary solutions and fleeting sources of hope, but in Christ, we find a rock-solid foundation that stands firm amidst the shifting sands of life.
SCRIPTURE: “The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. ‘The Lord is my portion,’ says my soul, ‘therefore I will hope in him.'” — Lamentations 3:22-24 (NIV)
REFRESHING FOR THE DAY: When we anchor our souls to the solid rock of Christ’s love and His promises, we are choosing to build our lives on something eternal and unshakeable. His love is not conditional or dependent on our circumstances; it is constant and enduring, a love that surpasses all understanding. His promises are not empty words but a firm assurance of His faithfulness to fulfill His plans for us. Stay Refreshed!
NOTE THIS: In Christ, we find a refuge from the storms of life, a safe harbor where we can find rest and renewal. When we place our hope in Him, we can be confident that we are held securely in His hands, and nothing can separate us from His love.
RESPONSIBILITY: So let us place our hope in Christ today, anchoring our souls to the solid rock of His love and His promises. In Him, we find security, peace, and eternal joy.
PRAYER: Heavenly Father, we thank You for the enduring hope we have in Christ, which we are called to share with others. Equip us, O Lord, to be ambassadors of hope, bringing light into the darkness and love into the brokenness of this world. Open our eyes to the needs of those around us and empower us to extend Your grace and mercy to all who are hurting. In the name of Jesus, we pray, Amen!
PROPHETIC WORD: And as we abide in Christ, may we be a beacon of hope to a world searching for something that endures, pointing others to the unchanging love and faithfulness of our Savior, Jesus Christ, Amen!
BIBLE TEXTS: Lamentations 3:23-24
