“God’s Design for Women: Honored, Treasured, and Purposeful”

February 22, 2025

Bible Verse (KJV)

1 Peter 3:7
“Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.”

Commentary

Verse Context

This verse, written by the Apostle Peter, speaks directly to the relationship between husbands and wives, providing an essential understanding of God’s design for women. It instructs husbands to:

  • Dwell with their wives with understanding – Recognizing the unique way that God made them.
  • Give honor to their wives – Treating them with value and respect.
  • Acknowledge the differences – Recognizing that women are the weaker vessel, which refers to physical differences and emotional sensitivity, not spiritual worth or intelligence.
  • View marriage as a partnership in God’s grace – Both men and women are heirs together of God’s promises.

This verse does not demean women but instead elevates them in their God-given role. In Peter’s time, women were often seen as inferior, but this passage commands men to honor and cherish them.

At the same time, it rejects modern feminist ideas of total independence from men. God designed women to be a necessary help to men, not competitors or isolated individuals.

Application

Appreciating God’s Greatness

God’s perfect design is seen in the relationship between men and women. The world distorts this by either demeaning women or pushing them into roles that were not meant for them. But God’s way is one of balance, honor, and purpose:

  • Women are not meant to be weak, but they are meant to be cherished.
  • Men are not meant to dominate, but they are meant to lead in love.
  • Both are heirs together of God’s grace.

This is God’s greatness in creation—giving men and women distinct but complementary roles, both valuable in His sight.

For the Believer

  1. Men Must Honor Their Wives
    • Many Christian men fail in this. They either dominate their wives or neglect their leadership role altogether.
    • A godly husband leads with love, wisdom, and protection, ensuring his wife is cared for and honored.
    • Ephesians 5:25 says, “Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it.”
  2. Women Must Embrace Their God-Given Role
    • The modern world pushes independence and rebellion against God’s order, but Scripture makes it clear that women are to be helpers, nurturers, and godly examples.
    • Genesis 2:18 reminds us that “It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.”
    • Proverbs 31 praises the virtuous woman as one who supports her husband, nurtures her home, and is full of wisdom and strength.
  3. The Curse of the Fall: Positional Lust, Not Sexual Lust
    • Many misunderstand Genesis 3:16, where God tells Eve:
      “Thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.”
    • This desire is not sexual lust, but a positional desire—a craving for power over her husband.
    • The curse of the fall placed in women a natural rebellion against male headship. This is the root of feminism, where women seek to be both man and woman, both leader and nurturer, both father and mother.
    • This applies to:
      • Single mothers trying to fill the role of father and mother.
      • Wives who refuse to submit to their husbands and attempt to take control.
      • Women who reject marriage altogether, claiming total independence.
    • Biblical womanhood means rejecting this curse-driven rebellion and embracing God’s good design.
  4. Beware of Feminism’s Influence in the Church
    • Many churches celebrate feminism, forgetting that Scripture never calls women to seek dominance or independence from men.
    • Isaiah 3:12 warns, “As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them.” This was a judgment on Israel for rejecting God’s order.
    • Biblical womanhood is about faithfulness, wisdom, and nurturing—not rebellion and contention.

For the Unbeliever

The world distorts the value of women, either treating them as inferior or promoting independence from men and rejection of God’s order. Neither is biblical.

  • God designed women with purpose—not to be exploited, and not to be in rebellion, but to fulfill a unique and honored role.
  • True joy is found in living according to God’s design. Modern feminism promises freedom, but instead, it leaves many women alone, struggling, and unfulfilled.
  • God’s way is better. If you’ve been chasing independence, consider the beauty of God’s design—a life of honor, love, and purpose in His perfect plan.

Christ redeems and restores. No matter where you are today, you can find your identity and purpose in Him.

Broader Context

What Does the Bible Say About Women?

📖 Genesis 2:18 – “It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.”
🔹 Women were created to complement and support men, not to compete with them.

📖 1 Corinthians 11:8-9 – “For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man. Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man.”
🔹 This verse reinforces the order of creation and the role of women in supporting men.

📖 Proverbs 31:10-12 – “Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil. She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.”
🔹 A godly woman strengthens her home, her husband, and her family through faithfulness.

📖 Genesis 3:16 – “Thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.”
🔹 This desire is not romantic longing but a desire to rule over him, which is part of the curse of the fall.

📖 Isaiah 3:12 – “As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them.”
🔹 A nation where men fail to lead and women take charge is under judgment, not blessing.

Final Encouragement

The world promotes lies about womanhood, but the Bible tells the truth:

  • Women are honored in God’s design.
  • Women are meant to be treasured, not exploited.
  • Women were created for a unique and beautiful purpose—to support and nurture, not to dominate or rebel.

For believers, this is a call to embrace biblical womanhood and manhood. For non-believers, this is an invitation to discover the joy of living in God’s perfect plan.

The feminist movement has redefined womanhood, but it has not improved the lives of women. God’s way is better

No Excuses: God’s Truth Is Clear, but Are We Listening?

Bible Verses (KJV)

Romans 1:18-23
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.

Commentary

Verse Context

This passage is a bold declaration of God’s justice against human sin. Paul is laying the groundwork for the universal need for salvation by explaining that mankind is without excuse when it comes to recognizing God.

  • Verse 18 – The wrath of God is already being revealed against those who suppress the truth. This wrath is not random but targeted at sin and rebellion.
  • Verses 19-20 – God has clearly shown Himself through creation. No one can claim ignorance of Him because His eternal power and divine nature are evident in the world around us.
  • Verses 21-23 – Even though people knew of God, they refused to honor Him. Instead, they chose idolatry, worshiping creation rather than the Creator.

This passage confronts the deliberate rejection of God, showing that those who turn away are not victims of ignorance but of willful rebellion.

Application

Appreciating God’s Greatness

God has never hidden Himself from humanity. His power, authority, and divine nature are clearly seen in the world He created. From the stars in the sky to the complexity of life, everything points to Him.

The greatness of God is revealed in:

  • His patience – Though He has the right to destroy all sin immediately, He gives time for repentance.
  • His revelation – He has made Himself known, yet mankind still rejects Him.
  • His justice – His wrath is not without reason; it is a response to deliberate sin and suppression of truth.

For the Believer

  1. Live as Those Who Recognize God
    • Many acknowledge God exists, but do they honor Him?
    • Verse 21 warns against knowing God but failing to glorify Him. Many believers go through life without true gratitude or reverence for God.
  2. Beware of False Wisdom
    • Verse 22 says, “Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.”
    • The world often rejects God’s truth in the name of intelligence, yet wisdom apart from God is empty and dangerous.
    • 1 Corinthians 3:19 reminds us: “For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God.”
  3. Guard Against Idolatry
    • Verse 23 exposes the tragedy of exchanging God’s glory for idols.
    • While most people today don’t bow to statues, idolatry still exists—in the form of money, success, pleasure, and self-worship.
    • Anything that takes God’s place in our lives is an idol.

For the Unbeliever

This passage leaves no room for excuses.

  • Verse 20 states that all people are “without excuse.”
  • Every person has seen evidence of God in creation, yet many choose to reject Him.
  • Atheism and agnosticism are not ignorance but suppression of truth.

If you have ignored or denied God, this passage is a wake-up call. He has made Himself known, and rejecting Him has consequences.

  • Will you continue suppressing the truth?
  • Or will you turn to the One who created you and surrender to Him?

Broader Context

Who Wrote Romans?

The Apostle Paul wrote Romans around A.D. 57, during his ministry to spread the Gospel across the Roman Empire. Romans is considered Paul’s most profound theological letter, explaining the guilt of all humanity, the grace of God, and the power of salvation through Christ.

To Whom Was It Written?

Romans was written to Christians in Rome, both Jews and Gentiles, teaching them the fullness of the Gospel and how faith in Christ is the only way to be saved.

Why Was It Written?

Romans 1:18-23 serves as Paul’s argument for why all people need salvation. He begins by showing the universal guilt of humanity—we have all seen evidence of God, but many choose to reject Him.

How Does This Apply Today?

  • People still reject God, claiming “there isn’t enough evidence.” But the Bible says the evidence is clear and overwhelming.
  • Modern idolatry is alive and well. People still worship creation—whether it’s science, celebrities, material wealth, or self-fulfillment.
  • Human wisdom apart from God leads to destruction. Many profess to be wise but reject God’s truth in favor of empty philosophies.

Romans 1 is a warning that when we push God away, our hearts and minds become darkened. Are we paying attention?

Final Encouragement

This passage eliminates all excuses. God is real, He has revealed Himself, and rejecting Him is a choice with consequences.

For believers, this is a call to gratitude and holiness. For unbelievers, it is a call to repentance before it’s too late.

The wrath of God is not an emotional outburst—it is a just and measured response to those who suppress the truth. Will you honor God, or will you continue to ignore Him?

Call to Action

Believers:

  • Examine your heart—are you truly honoring God, or have you taken Him for granted?
  • Stand firm in truth, even when the world calls it foolishness.
  • Guard against modern idolatry—are you placing anything above God?

Non-Believers:

  • There are no excuses—God has revealed Himself, and rejection is a choice.
  • Turn to Him today. The longer you suppress the truth, the darker your heart will become.
  • Seek Jesus while there is still time.

Woe to the Wicked: God Sees and Will Repay!

Daily Bible Verse

Micah 2:1
Woe to them that devise iniquity, and work evil upon their beds! when the morning is light, they practise it, because it is in the power of their hand.

Commentary

Micah 2:1 is a warning against the scheming of the wicked. It condemns those who plan evil at night and carry it out in the morning simply because they have the power to do so. These individuals plot wickedness in their hearts before acting on it, showing premeditated sin rather than accidental wrongdoing.

This verse reflects a deep moral corruption—the wicked are not only committing evil acts but actively strategizing how to take advantage of others. They are guilty of abusing their power, taking what they want with no regard for righteousness.

Micah, a prophet from the 8th century B.C., directed this prophecy to the leaders and wealthy elites of Judah, who used their power to exploit the poor and oppress the vulnerable. The next verse (Micah 2:2) explains that these wicked people were stealing land and possessions, violating the laws of justice that God had given Israel.

This passage exposes the rotting core of greed and injustice—sin that destroys both the individual and the nation.

Application

Appreciating God’s Greatness

God is just and holy. He does not turn a blind eye to corruption, oppression, or abuse of power. The greatness of God is revealed in His commitment to hold the wicked accountable. While human systems of justice may fail, God’s justice never does. Proverbs 15:3 says, “The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good.”

The wicked may think their schemes are hidden in the dark, but God sees all and will judge accordingly.

For the Believer

  1. Guard Your Heart Against Scheming
    • This verse reminds believers that sin starts in the heart before it manifests in actions. Jesus said in Matthew 15:19, “For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies.”
    • We must be careful not to rationalize sin—even small compromises can lead to destruction.
  2. Stand Against Injustice
    • As Christians, we cannot ignore or enable evil. Proverbs 31:8-9 calls us to: “Open thy mouth for the dumb in the cause of all such as are appointed to destruction. Open thy mouth, judge righteously, and plead the cause of the poor and needy.”
    • When we see oppression or deceit, we must speak truth and act righteously.
  3. Trust in God’s Justice
    • Sometimes it seems as if the wicked prosper, but God promises they will reap what they sow. Galatians 6:7 warns: “Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.”
    • No matter how powerful the wicked may seem, their judgment is certain.

For the Unbeliever

This verse is a strong warning to those who plot evil, manipulate, or oppress others for personal gain.

  • If you think your actions are hidden, God sees. Hebrews 4:13 says: “Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.”
  • If you have gained power, wealth, or success through deceit or oppression, it will not last. Psalm 37:35-36 states: “I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree. Yet he passed away, and, lo, he was not: yea, I sought him, but he could not be found.”

However, God’s justice is also merciful. If you repent and turn to Him, He will forgive and restore you. Isaiah 55:7 says, “Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him.”

You do not have to be trapped in a life of sin and deceit—turn to Christ today.

Broader Context

Who Wrote Micah?

The book of Micah was written by the prophet Micah, who was from a small rural town in Judah. He prophesied during the reigns of Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah (about 735–700 B.C.), warning against the corruption of the leaders, priests, and wealthy elite who were exploiting the common people.

To Whom Was It Written?

Micah was sent to the people of Judah, particularly its leaders, judges, and wealthy landowners. His prophecy warned that if they did not repent, destruction would come—and it did. Jerusalem was later attacked, and much of Judah fell to the Assyrians.

Why Was It Written?

Micah’s book serves two purposes:

  1. To condemn injustice and warn of impending judgment.
  2. To offer hope that God would ultimately restore His people.

Micah 2 is focused on the first purpose, addressing how wicked leaders were abusing power for their own gain. God saw their sins and promised justice would come.

How Does This Apply Today?

  • Powerful people and governments still manipulate and oppress. God sees, and He will judge them.
  • Sin still starts in the heart before becoming action. We must guard ourselves from even the smallest compromises.
  • True justice belongs to God. Though evil seems unchecked, God will always bring the wicked to account.

This passage is a reminder that God is watching, and He will not let evil go unpunished.

Final Encouragement

Micah 2:1 is both a warning and a call to righteousness. For believers, it is a reminder to live with integrity and trust in God’s justice. For non-believers, it is a chance to repent and turn from evil before it is too late.

God is merciful, but He will not overlook sin forever. Where do you stand today?

Call to Action

Believers: Examine your heart—do you entertain small compromises that could lead to greater sin? Do you stand for righteousness, or do you turn a blind eye to injustice? Ask God to strengthen your integrity today.

Non-Believers: If you are involved in dishonesty, greed, or manipulation, know that God sees and will judge. But He also offers mercy through Jesus Christ. Repent today, and step into the light of His righteousness.

📢 “The Day of the LORD: Justice Is Coming—Are You Ready?”

Daily Bible Verse

Obadiah 1:15


For the day of the LORD is near upon all the heathen: as thou hast done, it shall be done unto thee: thy reward shall return upon thine own head.

Commentary

Verse Context

Obadiah 1:15 declares a universal truth about God’s justice—the Day of the LORD is a time when God will bring judgment upon those who have rejected Him and lived in wickedness. The phrase “as thou hast done, it shall be done unto thee” is a warning that every nation and individual will reap what they sow.

This verse is part of God’s message to Edom, the nation descended from Esau. When Judah was attacked by the Babylonians, Edom betrayed their Israelite relatives, plundering their cities and capturing fugitives to turn them over to their enemies (Obadiah 1:10-14). Because of this, God declared that judgment would fall upon Edom.

Yet, Obadiah 1:15 expands beyond Edom—it is a warning to all nations that reject God’s authority. The principle of divine retribution (measure-for-measure justice) applies to all: what you do to others will be done to you. The Day of the LORD is a coming reality when God’s righteousness will be fully revealed.

Application

Appreciating God’s Greatness

God is a God of justice. While the world may overlook evil, God never does. His justice is absolute—no sin will go unpunished. At the same time, His justice is balanced with His mercy, offering grace to those who repent. Isaiah 30:18 reminds us: “For the LORD is a God of judgment: blessed are all they that wait for him.”

God’s greatness is seen in His unwavering righteousness—He does not tolerate injustice, yet He provides a way of escape for those who turn to Him.

For the Believer

  1. Trust in God’s Justice – The wicked may seem to thrive, but their time is limited. Psalm 37:28 says, “For the LORD loveth judgment, and forsaketh not his saints.” Even when evil seems unchecked, God is in control.
  2. Live with Integrity – The warning “as thou hast done, it shall be done unto thee” reminds us that our actions have consequences. Jesus said in Luke 6:31, “And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.” We must reflect God’s righteousness in how we treat others.
  3. Be Ready for the Day of the LORD – 2 Peter 3:10 warns that “the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night.” As believers, we must live holy lives, ensuring we are prepared for Christ’s return.

For the Unbeliever

This verse is a wake-up call. The Day of the LORD is coming, and no one escapes God’s justice. Many believe they can live without accountability, but God sees everything.

  • If you’ve ignored God, now is the time to seek Him. Isaiah 55:6 says, “Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near.”
  • The good news is that God is merciful. Though judgment is coming, He offers salvation through Jesus Christ. Romans 10:13 promises: “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”

You don’t have to face God’s wrath—turn to Him today and receive His grace.

Broader Context

The book of Obadiah is the shortest book in the Old Testament, consisting of only 21 verses, yet its message is powerful and timeless.

  • Who Wrote It? – The prophet Obadiah (name means “Servant of Yahweh”).
  • To Whom? – Edom, a nation that betrayed Israel during Judah’s downfall.
  • Why Was It Written? – To announce God’s judgment on Edom and to warn all nations of coming judgment.
  • What Is Its Purpose? – To show that God’s justice is universal—He holds nations and individuals accountable for their actions.

This prophecy was fulfilled—Edom was completely destroyed. But the message remains relevant because the final “Day of the LORD” is still to come. The judgment of nations in Obadiah foreshadows the coming final judgment when Christ returns to establish His kingdom and judge the world.

We are living in a time of grace, but judgment is coming. God’s justice will not be delayed forever. Are we ready?

Final Encouragement

God is both just and merciful. For believers, this verse is a reminder to trust in His justice and live in righteousness. For unbelievers, it is a warning and an invitation—God’s justice is certain, but His grace is still available.

If the Day of the LORD came today, where would you stand?

Call to Action

Believers: Examine your life—are you living in righteousness, or have you drifted into complacency? Stay watchful, trust in God’s justice, and be ready for Christ’s return.

Non-Believers: The Day of the LORD is coming—don’t wait until it’s too late. Turn to Christ today, repent of your sins, and receive the salvation He freely offers.

Overcoming Worldly Desires: A Study of James 4

James 4:1-10
From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members? Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts. Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy? But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded. Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness. Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.

Verse Context:
James, the half-brother of Jesus and a leader of the early church in Jerusalem, wrote this epistle to Jewish believers scattered throughout the Roman Empire. His letter is direct, addressing practical aspects of Christian living, and chapter 4 particularly rebukes worldliness and selfish desires within the church.

James begins by identifying the root cause of conflict: selfish desires (lusts) that lead to strife. Instead of seeking God’s will, people pursue their own ambitions, often leading to frustration and division. He warns that aligning with the world’s values makes one an enemy of God. However, the passage doesn’t end with condemnation; it offers hope—God gives grace to the humble, calling believers to repentance and submission.

James 4 fits within the broader message of the epistle: authentic faith must be accompanied by godly living. Earlier in the letter, James emphasizes the dangers of uncontrolled speech (James 3) and now shifts focus to the root of conflict—worldly desires. He contrasts worldly wisdom with godly wisdom, showing that pride and selfish ambition lead to destruction, while humility before God brings restoration.

Appreciating God’s Greatness:
This passage reveals the depth of God’s justice and grace. He resists the proud—those who seek their own way—but gives grace to the humble. His call to repentance is not an invitation to despair but to transformation. The greatness of God is displayed in His mercy: though we struggle with sin, He provides a way to restoration through humility and submission to Him.

Application for the Believer
Examine Your Desires:
James warns against asking “amiss” (v. 3)—praying with selfish motives. Instead of using prayer as a means to fulfill worldly desires, believers should seek God’s will, trusting that He provides what is best.
Avoid Worldly Thinking:
“Friendship with the world is enmity with God” (v. 4). This doesn’t mean avoiding non-believers, but rather refusing to adopt worldly values—greed, power-seeking, and self-indulgence. A believer’s loyalty must be to God, not to the world’s fleeting pleasures.
Submit and Resist:
Submission to God means aligning every aspect of life—thoughts, actions, and desires—with His Word.
Resisting the devil is an active process: engaging in prayer, staying rooted in Scripture, and rejecting sinful temptations. The promise is clear—when we resist, Satan will flee (v. 7).
Repentance Leads to Restoration:
Verses 8-10 call for genuine repentance. James speaks of weeping and mourning over sin—not in a superficial way, but in true sorrow leading to transformation. When believers humble themselves, God lifts them up (v. 10), restoring their joy and strengthening their faith.

Application for the Non-Believer
For those who have not yet given their lives to Christ, this passage serves as a warning and an invitation.

Warning: Being a “friend of the world” (v. 4) means being opposed to God. Pursuing a life centered around personal pleasure, power, or success at the expense of righteousness leads to spiritual destruction.
Invitation: God’s grace is extended to the humble (v. 6). No matter the past, those who submit to God and resist the devil will experience transformation. He invites you to draw near (v. 8), to leave behind the weight of sin, and to walk in newness of life.
James reminds us that repentance is not just about feeling bad—it’s about turning fully toward God. If you’re searching for truth, Jesus is calling you to come near, to submit to Him, and to experience the joy of salvation. James 4 teaches that conflicts arise from unchecked desires, and when we seek worldly pleasures over God’s will, it leads to separation from Him. The chapter emphasizes humility as the key to reconciliation with God, teaching that true faith is not passive but active—requiring repentance, resistance against sin, and a renewed commitment to God’s ways. James’ strong language is meant to shake believers from complacency. The passage mirrors themes found throughout Scripture:
God opposes the proud (Proverbs 3:34, 1 Peter 5:5).
Resisting the devil leads to victory (Ephesians 6:11-13).
Drawing near to God brings spiritual renewal (Psalm 145:18).
The ultimate takeaway is that a life surrendered to God leads to peace, while a life consumed by worldly ambition leads to conflict and destruction.

Final Encouragement
James 4:1-10 is both a rebuke and an invitation. God calls us away from worldly pursuits and into a deeper relationship with Him. For believers, this is a reminder to examine our hearts, live in humility, and resist the temptations that lead us away from God. For non-believers, this is an opportunity to turn from worldly ways and embrace the grace that God freely offers. No matter where you are in your spiritual journey, the invitation is clear: Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you.

Call to Action
Believers: Examine your heart today. Are there areas where you have pursued personal gain over God’s will? Take time to submit to God, confess where needed, and actively resist temptation. Humility before the Lord leads to restoration and peace.

Non-Believers: The world offers temporary satisfaction, but God offers eternal life and peace. Will you choose to submit to Him today? Let today be the day you resist the devil, turn from worldly ways, and draw near to the God who loves you.
