Verse of the Day - Isaiah 53:6
Isaiah 53:6 (NLT) - All of us, like sheep, have strayed away. We have left God’s paths to follow our own. Yet the LORD laid on Him the sins of us all.
“God’s path has never been one of sadness, depression or anxiety. If I am upset, then I should know the devil is bringing despair or worry. We should examine ourselves and ask for God’s help. His promises in the Scripture are like healing medicine that can remove depression from our hearts and fill them with joy. Continuous prayer, the Jesus Prayer, has the same effect. Thus the devil cannot defeat me while I am armed; and my weapon is prayer and reliance on God.”
~Mother Erene

Tyndale Life Application Daily Devotion
Devotional for March 30
Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. Point out anything in me that offends you, and lead me along the path of everlasting life. - Psalm 139:23-24
Insight
David asked God to search for sin and point it out, even to the level of testing his thoughts. This is exploratory surgery for sin. How are we to recognize sin unless God points it out? Then, when God shows us, we can repent and be forgiven.
Challenge
Make this verse your prayer. If you ask the Lord to search your heart and your thoughts, and to reveal your sin, you will be continuing on God's “path of everlasting life.”

No wandering from God’s commands
For the wrongdoings done by the Jews, We forbade them certain good things that had been permitted to them before: for having frequently debarred others from God’s path; for taking usury when they had been forbidden to do so; and for wrongfully devouring other people’s property. For those of them that reject the truth we have prepared an agonising torment.
Quran, Chapter 4, verses 160 and 161.
