Daily Devotionals
- December 11
“For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them” (Matthew 18:20). Jesus assures His presence when believers gather in His name. Even a small group can experience His nearness because He wants to be with us.
- December 10
“Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me” (Psalm 51:11). In the Old Testament, David had to plead for God’s presence to remain with him because he feared losing the Holy Spirit because of sin. Now, we no longer have to beg God not to leave us, because He now lives inside of us and promises to always be with us.
- December 9
“Let your character or moral disposition be free from love of money [including greed, avarice, lust, and craving for earthly possessions] and be satisfied with your present [circumstances and with what you have]; for He [God] Himself has said, I will not in any way fail you nor give you up nor leave you without support. [I will] not, [I will] not, [I will] not in any degree leave you helpless nor forsake nor let [you] down (relax My hold on you)! [Assuredly not!]” (Hebrews 13:5, AMPC). God promises never to fail or abandon His people, no matter the circumstances. He’s emphatic about this because He wants us to be confident and secure, without a doubt, about His unwavering faithfulness.
- December 8
“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me” (John 14:6). The world pushes many different philosophies at us, one of which says that there are many ways to get to heaven. These are based in self-effort; the only way to heaven is by accepting Christ and trusting in Him.
- December 7
“But now Jesus the Messiah has accepted a priestly ministry which far surpasses theirs, since he is the catalyst of a better covenant which contains far more wonderful promises!” (Hebrews 8:6, TPT). Under the law, the promises man operated by were punishment and death for less-than-perfect performance. Under grace, the promises we inherit are forgiveness, mercy, and compassion, even when we miss the mark and fall short.
- December 6
“And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance” (Hebrews 9:15). Jesus accepted death on a cross to replace the old covenant of the law with the new covenant of grace. Our sins—past, present, and future—have been redeemed, and we’ve been forgiven. We now have access to all the good things promised in the Bible.
- December 5
“For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus” (1 Timothy 2:5). In the Old Testament, there was no one to advocate before God on behalf of man, but that has since changed. Jesus is now the mediator who stands between us and God; He alone reconciles people to God and to each other.
- December 4
“For he is not a man, as I am, that I should answer him, and we should come together in judgment. Neither is there any daysman betwixt us, that might lay his hand upon us both” (Job 9:32, 33). In the Old Testament before Jesus, man was separated from God because of sin in the garden of Eden. Jesus came to reconcile all mankind to God through Himself and accept the judgment that we deserved.
- December 3
“And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it: but I found none” (Ezekiel 22:30). Before the cross of Christ, there was no mediator between God and man. Now, Jesus is the one who stands in the gap for us.
- December 2
“If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or if I command the locusts to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people; If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land” (2 Chronicles 7:13, 14). God calls His people to humility, prayer, seeking Him, and a mindset that turns away from sin. Jesus went to the cross to make forgiveness and healing accessible to us; when we do what God asks, we position ourselves to receive these things.

“But as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, because it is written, ‘Be holy, for I am holy’” (1 Peter 1:15, 16, NKJV).
Religion truthfully acknowledges God’s holiness, but stops short of making an important connection. The Bible goes one step further, and reveals that because of God’s holiness, his children are also holy. Those individuals who have Christ living in them have been made just as he is.

“Más bien, sean ustedes santos en todo lo que hagan, como también es santo quien los llamó. Sean santos, porque yo soy santo’” (1 Pedro 1:15, 16, NVI).
La religión reconoce la santidad de Dios, pero corto en hacer una conexión importante. La Biblia va más allá, y revela la santidad de Dios, sus hijos también son santos. Aquellos individuos que tienen a Cristo viviendo en ellos han sido hechos como él.

“Porque el es nuestra paz, que de ambos pueblos hizo uno, derribando la pared intermedia de separación. Aboliendo en su carne las enemistades, la ley de los mandamientos expresados en ordenanzas, para crear en sí mismo de los dos un solo y nuevo hombre, haciendo la paz” (Efesios 2:14-16).
Antes de Jesús, la humanidad estaba en guerra y alejado de Dios debido al pecado. Cuando Jesús murió en la cruz, Ä—l también clavó en la cruz todo lo que previamente nos había separado del Padre. No sólo nos reconcilió a Dios, pero también el uno al otro en todas nuestras relaciones.

“For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us; having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace; and that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby” (Ephesians 2:14-16).
Before Jesus, humanity was at war with, and alienated from, God because of sin. When Jesus died on the cross for us, he also nailed to the cross everything that had previously separated us from the Father. Not only did he reconcile us to God, but also to each other in all our relationships.

“Porque la gracia de Dios se ha manifestado para salvación a todos los hombres. Enseñándonos que, renunciando a la impiedad y a los deseos mundanos, vivamos en este siglo sobria, justa y piadosamente” (Tito 2:11, 12).
Jesús es la gracia de Dios en carne, y vino a la tierra para demostrar el favor de Dios hacia nosotros. Es en Jesús que nos enriquece y nos fortalece para vivir una vida victoriosa en este mundo para glorificar a Dios en este mundo.

“For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world” (Titus 2:11, 12).
Jesus is God’s grace in the flesh, and he came to earth to demonstrate God’s favor toward us. It is Jesus who enriches us and empowers us to live a victorious life in this sinful world, to glorify God.

“Mi Dios, pues suplirá todo lo que os falta conforme a sus riquezas en gloria en Cristo Jesús” (Filipenses 4:19).
Muchas personas automáticamente asocian la palabra “riquezas,” con dinero, pero es una definición estrecha de la palabra. Todas las riquezas y abundancias al nivel físico empiezan por el nivel espiritual, donde nunca hay escasez. De hecho, Jesús fue el hombre más rico en caminar la tierra.

“But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:19).
Many people automatically associate the word “riches,” with money, but that is a very narrow definition of the word. All riches and wealth on the physical level begin on the spiritual level, where there is never any lack. In this respect, Jesus was the wealthiest man to ever walk the earth.

“Ya conocen la gracia de nuestro Señor Jesucristo, que aunque era rico, se hizo pobre, siendo rico, para que mediante su pobreza fueran enriquecidos” (2 Corintios 8:9).
Muchas personas tienen la noción que Jesús fue un hombre pobre, pero la Palabra disipa esa idea. Jesús era Dios en forma humana, y no hay escasez en Dios, o en finanzas. Jesús se vació por nosotros y tomo nuestras necesidades espirituales y físicas, para que tengamos acceso a todo lo que necesitamos, a través de él.
