DAILY READINGS: Deut. 17 to 18:8; Obad.; Luke 11:14-36
Do all things without murmurings and disputings. Phil. 2:14
The church that honestly longs to be eff ective in a dark world must
have the right att itude toward each other. We need to be gracious
in our dealings with each other, both inwardly (murmuring) and
outwardly (disputing). Murmuring was a hallmark of those Israelites
who journeyed out of Egypt to the promised land. As long as
they murmured, they made litt le progress and as long as they didn’t
progress they were vulnerable to enemy att acks. Awhining Christian
is not a winning Christian. May the Lord guard our hearts and
tongues for His glory. —Craig Funston
Lord Jesus change my heart; restore unto me the joy of Thy salvation;
And let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart please Thee.
