TOPIC: Love the undeserving.

Opening Prayer: My dear heavenly Father, as I study your word, let it be a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path.

Today’s Scripture: Luke 6:27‐36

Question(s) for Reflection
• Is there any command for me to obey?

Scripture Union Daily Guide 27 January 2022 MESSAGE

These verses tell us the way we should be living as disciples of Jesus and “children of the Most High” (v.35). We do not earn our salvation by living this kind of life; but when we are saved, this should be our lifestyle, (Galatians 2:16; Ephesians 2:10). Jesus did not teach what He did not practise. He loved His enemies, did well to those who hated Him and prayed for those who abused Him (Luke 22:49‐51; 23:34). God, our Father, is kind to the unthankful and the wicked and show kindness to them.

As believers in Jesus, it is very important to follow in the footsteps of our Lord. It can rightly be said that these standards are too high for anyone to attain, (e.g. vs.29‐30). Thankfully, we do not have to do it in our own human strength, but the Holy Spirit helps us as we grow more and more in faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. We should remember that the only bible many around us will read is our lives. Are we living lives that commend Jesus Christ to unbelievers?

For Further Study
Genesis 50:15‐21; Acts 7:54‐8:1 for examples of forgiveness.

HYMN: I NEED THEE EVERY HOUR
1. I need Thee every hour,
Most gracious Lord; No tender voice like Thine
Can peace afford.

CHORUS
I need Thee, O I need Thee;
Every hour I need Thee;
O bless me now, my Savior,
I come to Thee.

  1. I need Thee every hour,
    Stay Thou nearby;
    Temptations lose their power
    When Thou art nigh.

  2. I need Thee every hour,
    In joy or pain;
    Come quickly and abide,
    Or life is vain.

  3. I need Thee every hour;
    Teach me Thy will;
    And Thy rich promises
    In me fulfill.

  4. I need Thee every hour,
    Most Holy One;
    O make me Thine indeed,
    Thou blessed Son.

Closing Prayer
• Pray that you may represent Jesus accurately to non‐Christians around you.

Offer a prayer of faith in line with Genesis 22:17
