20060909 Bible Study for the Day- 2 Samuel 24

2 Samuel 24

     Failing to trust in God to provide for us has consequences, both immediate and far reaching. The constant lesson of faith is that, whether things are going well or in dire straits, we must look to God for our guidance, and for us that guidance comes to us through God’s word. This is not to say that we are saved by piously reading the Word. No, we are saved by faith in what that Word teaches us, but we are strengthened in that faith by following that teaching in our daily lives, and by that strengthening we are able to face the world, the devil, and our own sinfulness with vigor.
