Tyndale Life Application Daily Devotion

Devotional for November 27

You will fold them up like a cloak        and discard them like old clothing.        But you are always the same;        you will live forever. - Hebrews 1:12

Insight

What does it mean that Christ is changeless (“you are always the same”)? It means that Christ's character will never change. He persistently shows his love to us. He is always fair, just, and merciful to us who are so undeserving.

Challenge

Be thankful that Christ is changeless—he will always help you when you need it and offer forgiveness when you fall.

Tyndale Life Application Daily Devotion

Devotional for October 21

He is so rich in kindness and grace that he purchased our freedom with the blood of his Son and forgave our sins. He has showered his kindness on us, along with all wisdom and understanding. - Ephesians 1:7-8

Insight

Grace is God's voluntary and loving favor given to those he saves. We can't earn salvation, nor do we deserve it. No religious, intellectual, or moral effort can gain it, because it comes only from God's mercy and love. Without God's grace, no person can be saved.

Challenge

To receive it, we must acknowledge that we cannot save ourselves, that only God can save us, and that our only way to receive this loving favor is through faith in Christ.
