The Attributes of God
You, O God, are not a man, that You should lie,
or a son of man, that You should change Your mind.
Have You spoken and not done it?
Have You promised and not fulfilled it?
(Numbers 23:19)
You who are the Glory of Israel do not lie or change Your mind, for You are not a man, that You should change Your mind. (1 Samuel 15:29)
Pause to reflect on these affirmations about the person, powers and perfection of God.
The Works of God
One generation shall praise Your works to another,
O Lord,
and shall declare Your mighty acts.
I will meditate on the glorious splendor of Your majesty
and on Your wonderful works.
Many shall speak of the might of Your awesome works,
and I will proclaim Your great deeds.
(Psalm 145:4–6)
Who is a God like You, who pardons iniquity
and forgives the transgression of the remnant of Your
inheritance?
You do not stay angry forever but delight to show
mercy.
You will have compassion on Your people;
You will tread their iniquities underfoot
and hurl all their sins into the depths of the sea. (Micah 7:18–19)
Take a moment to consider the greatness of God’s wonderful works.
My Relationship to God
You lifted me out of the slimy pit, O God,
out of the mud and mire;
You set my feet on a rock
and gave me a firm place to stand.
You put a new song in my mouth,
a hymn of praise to You, my God.
Many will see and fear and put their trust in You,
O Lord. (Psalm 40:2–3)
I shall know the truth, and the truth shall set me free. Everyone who commits sin is a slave of sin. And a slave has no permanent place in the family, but a child belongs to it forever. So if You, the Son of God, set me free, I shall be free indeed. (John 8:32, 34–36)
Pause to thank God for the relationship that you enjoy with Him in Jesus Christ.
The Character I Want to Cultivate
I will not let love and truth leave me;
I will bind them around my neck
and write them on the tablet of my heart.
(Proverbs 3:3)
The love we have from You, O Lord, is patient, it is kind, it does not envy; love does not boast, it is not arrogant, it does not behave rudely; it does not seek its own, it is not provoked, it keeps no record of wrongs; it does not rejoice in unrighteousness but rejoices with the truth; it bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails. (1 Corinthians 13:4–8)
Take a moment to ask the Lord for the grace to grow in godly character.
My Relationship to Others
I will give generously to others without a grudging heart. (Deuteronomy 15:10)
I will not withhold good from those to whom it is due,
when it is within my power to act.
(Proverbs 3:27)
Pause to review your relationships with others and to commit them to the Lord.
