Revelation 7:9-10 / Verse of the Day & Daily Devotion

Standing Together

Our world has an eclectic array of hair and skin, eyes and smiles. People have freckles and beards, birthmarks and dimples. They have long hair, short hair, straight hair, curly hair, and no hair.

All of them have individual backgrounds and life experiences.
All of them have unique voices, personalities, and fingerprints.
All of them have made in the image of God.
And one day, every Christian throughout history will stand together before God.

“After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands. And they cried out in a loud voice: 'Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb.'"
‭‭Revelation‬ ‭7:9-10‬ ‭NIV‬‬

This passage in Revelation is talking about a group of people from all backgrounds, cultures, and walks of life gathering together to worship God. The ability to worship Him in this unified way is only possible because while we were still sinners, Christ died for us (Romans 5:8). Jesus bridged the gap between us and God by becoming the perfect substitutionary sacrifice for our brokenness. 

Jesus’ power is the only power that can unify humanity. And because Jesus’ great power is at work within the global Church, we can intentionally await His return by sharing His love, joy, hope, and peace with everyone around us. Because our hope, strength, and future is in Jesus, we can cry out with Christians everywhere— “salvation belongs to our God … and to the Lamb!”  

So today, let’s worship God with every breath we take by staying focused on Jesus, and living in unity with other Christians as we await Jesus’ return.

Romans 5:1 / Verse of the Day & Daily Devotion

Justified by Faith

Paul, the writer of the letter to the church in Rome, covers the details of what is known as “the Gospel message”—a message that was handed down to them. It's packed with deep theological truths that are meant to shape the way Christians live.

One of the central components to the Gospel is that salvation comes through faith alone. That means we are saved by the power of God through believing and trusting in Jesus. Every Christian comes to God through faith—not through good deeds or by trying to earn salvation.

Paul says that we have peace with God by our faith in Jesus. Prior to that, we were considered ungodly and unrighteous—because we would live our lives in our own power, doing our own things. This led to separation from God.

However, by faith in Jesus, we are justified before Him. This means that through Jesus’ own right-living, we are made right before Him. Even though we still make mistakes, we can stand innocent before God because of Jesus.
