Daily D – Psalm 1:3

by David Bowman | May 31, 2024 | Daily D | 0 comments

Psalm 1:3
He is like a tree planted beside flowing streams
that bears its fruit in its season,
and its leaf does not wither.
Whatever he does prospers. (CSB)

Psalm 1:2-3
Instead you thrill to God’s Word,
you chew on Scripture day and night.
You’re a tree replanted in Eden,
bearing fresh fruit every month,
Never dropping a leaf, always in blossom. (The Message)

Deeply-rooted trees tend not to topple over even in eighty-mile-per-hour winds. Shallow-rooted trees are susceptible to leaning over and falling down when strong winds blow.

Deeply-rooted trees with ample water are healthy and fruitful. They are productive and effective. This is likewise true of people who delight themselves in God’s goodness and walk in his ways.

Replant yourself in God’s good garden. Flourish in his presence and provision. This produces freshness and fulfillment. You are at your best in God’s presence and power.

—

I will live a life deeply rooted in God’s presence and power.

—

Our Father, deliver me from the undue influence who shun your words of truth and life. Give me an ever-deeper understanding of your will and ways. Deeply root my life in your grace and goodness so that I may live the fruitful and effective life you intend. Amen.

Daily D – Luke 1:76-79

Luke 1:76-79 And you, my child, will be called a prophet of the Most High;
for you will go on before the Lord to prepare the way for him,
to give his people the knowledge of salvation
through the forgiveness of their sins,
because of the tender mercy of our God,
by which the rising sun will come to us from heaven
to shine on those living in darkness
and in the shadow of death,
to guide our feet into the path of peace.
(NIV)

Daily D – John 20:24-28

John 20:24-28 Now Thomas (also known as Didymus), one of the Twelve, was not with the disciples when Jesus came. So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord!”

But he said to them, “Unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe.”

A week later his disciples were in the house again, and Thomas was with them. Though the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you!” Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe.”

Thomas said to him, “My Lord and my God!”

Daily D – John 18:10-11

John 18:10, 11 Then Simon Peter, who had a sword, drew it and struck the high priest’s servant, cutting off his right ear. (The servant’s name was Malchus.) Jesus commanded Peter, “Put your sword away! Shall I not drink the cup the Father has given me?”

Daily D – John 13:3-5

John 13:3-5 Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under his power, and that he had come from God and was returning to God; so he got up from the meal, took off his outer clothing, and wrapped a towel around his waist. After that, he poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel that was wrapped around him.
