Judges 4:1-24; Isaiah 25:1-12; 1 Corinthians 4:1-21

If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things that belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes. Luke 19:42

As our Lord wept over Jerusalem in the final days before His crucifixion, it pained Him to know that He had come to His own but they hadn’t received Him. Rejecting their promised Messiah, Israel had blinded themselves to His promised blessings. But our God is a promise-keeping God and He has not cast them off forever (Rom 11:1). He is fully trustworthy! —Rick Morse

Standing on the promises of Christ my King,
Through eternal ages let His praises ring. Glory in the highest,
I will shout and sing, Standing on the promises of God. —R. Kelso Carter
