Every person is important to God. He created people of every race, family, and community. He gave each person value and purpose. God made all nations, and He wants everyone to seek Him and know Him (Acts 17:26–27). The Bible says that every person is made in the image and likeness of God (Genesis 1:27). This means that every life…
Lord, let our faith be more than words we speak or beliefs we claim. Let it become the quiet shaping of our hearts into Your likeness, until what we are before You is reflected in what we do before others. The supreme purpose of the Christian life is not simply to appear religious, but to become more like God so…

Psalm 37:5 says, “Commit your way to the Lord; trust in Him, and He will do it.” Trusting God does not mean that…
Key passage: Acts 17:22–31 Paul walked through Athens and saw many objects of worship. The people were religious, but they did not really know the living God. Paul told them about the Creator—the God who made the world and gives life and breath to everyone (Acts 17:24–25). He cannot be contained in a building or reduced to something made by…
When we call God “the Most High God,” we are saying that He is above everything and everyone. No ruler, problem, power, or situation is greater than Him.
