Who is this coming from Edom dressed splendidly in red, coming from Bozah in the greatness of His strength? It is the Lord, with power to save, coming in righteousness to announce His victory.

I trampled them as a man tramples grapes to make wine. I trampled them furiously and their blood stained all My robes. The day of reward has come, the day to deliver My people.”

~July 15~
The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul. The testimony of the Lord is trustworthy, giving wisdom to the simple. The statutes of the Lord are right, and those who follow them are happy. The commandments of the Lord are pure, enlightening the mind. Respect for the Lord is good; it will continue forever. The judgments of the Lord are fair and altogether righteous. His laws are more precious than gold, more valuable than fine gold. They are sweeter than honey, even the drippings from the honeycomb. By them I am warned, and when I follow them, I am richly rewarded.

Your sons and daughters growing up will be taught by the Lord and great will be the peace of your people.

And he will be given eternal life.
Mark 10:29-30
~July 18~
So there remains the offer of Sabbath rest in God that He intends for each generation to have, of which the seventh day is a sign. Those who receive the rest that God has in mind for them will rest from salvation by works, just as He rested from all His work at the time of creation. So let’s put forth every effort to enter into God’s rest and not follow the example of our ancestors who disobeyed and died in the wilderness.
Hebrews 4:9-11
~July 19~
We don’t want you to do this for just a few years, but as long as you live. We want this kind of ministry to become second nature to you so that your hope will become even more a reality. Don’t be sluggish or casual about your faith, but imitate those of our ancestors who endured until they inherited what God had promised.
Hebrews 6:11-12
~July 20~
Therefore, let’s be careful that we don’t make the same mistake and end up not receiving this rest in our souls or entrance into the heavenly Canaan.

~July 21~
But you, my dear friends, keep building your faith, asking the Holy Spirit to help you. Keep yourselves in the love of God as you look forward to the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ, who through God’s mercy will give you eternal life. And show this compassion toward others, especially to those who are weak in faith. Help save the lost as if they were caught in a fire. Be merciful and kind to them, while hating sin as you would a filthy garment.
Jude 20-23
~July 22~
“Other than that, I have the same hope in God that they have. I believe in the resurrection of the dead, both good and bad, as most of them do, and that all of us will stand before the judgment seat of God, each one to answer for himself. That’s why I have always done my best to have a clear conscience, before both God and man.”
Acts 24:15
~July 23~
Listen to the Lord, you people. Hold your peace and be silent. The day of judgment for Judah will soon come, and no one can stop it. The Lord has prepared His people as a sacrifice. He has turned them over to the Babylonians who will come and take them captive. The Lord said, “On that day of sacrifice I will punish the princes and officials and all those who wear a style of dress to show which foreign god they worship.”
Zephaniah 1:7-8
~July 24~
So let’s be compassionate and give some thought to how we can spur each other on toward love and good deeds. Don’t give up the habit of worshiping together as some have already done, but encourage each other all the more as you see the signs of the Great Day approaching.
Hebrews 10:24-25
~July 25~
How beautiful is the sight of messengers coming across the mountains bringing good news!

With their own eyes they will see the Lord as He returns to Zion.

In the meantime, may the Lord make your love for one another and for others become as great as is His love for all of us and our love for you.
