DAILY?READINGS: 2 Samuel 8-9; Habakkuk 1; Romans 14:19 to 15:13

Lord, thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations. Ps. 90:1

As Moses traveled through the desert, he was comforted to know that his true home was in the Lord. Likewise, believers today have a dwelling place in Him as they traverse an ever-changing, decaying world. Christ promised to prepare an abode in the Father’s house for His people (John 14:2-3) and to make a dwelling place by the Spirit within His people on earth (v. 23). Believers are not alone. He lives within them and they are going to heaven for unfettered enjoyment of the triune God. —K. R. Keyser

We go in faith, our own great weakness feeling,
And needing more each day Thy grace to know:
Yet from our hearts a song of triumph pealing;
We rest on Thee and in Thy name we go. —E. G. Cherry
