Today’s Reading:Psalm 44:9-16 

Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:

Jesus Predicts Peter’s Restoration

“Simon, Simon,
Satan has asked to sift all of you as wheat.
But I have prayed for you, Simon,
that your faith may not fail.
And when you have turned back,
strengthen your brothers.”

 But he replied,
“Lord, I am ready to go with you
to prison and to death.”

Jesus answered,
“I tell you, Peter,
before the rooster crows today,
you will deny three times that you know me.”
(Luke 22:31-34).

This is love:
not that we loved God,
but that he loved us and sent his Son
as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.

Adversity Brings Character Development

Today’s Devotion from Psalms 365 by David Kitz

Reading:Psalm 44:9-16 

Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:

But now you have rejected and humbled us;
    you no longer go out with our armies.
You made us retreat before the enemy,
    and our adversaries have plundered us.
You gave us up to be devoured like sheep
    and have scattered us among the nations.
You sold your people for a pittance,
    gaining nothing from their sale.
You have made us a reproach to our neighbors,
    the scorn and derision of those around us.
You have made us a byword among the nations;
    the peoples shake their heads at us.
I live in disgrace all day long,
    and my face is covered with shame
at the taunts of those who reproach and revile me,
    because of the enemy, who is bent on revenge.
(NIV)*

Reflection
Psalm 44 begins on a very positive note as the psalmist recalls the goodness of the LORD, and the great victories Israel has won because of the LORD’s help. But that was the past. This is now and the triumphs of bygone years are just fading memories. The current reality as described in this portion of the psalm is a depressing litany of disgrace, disaster, and defeat.

But now you have rejected and humbled us; you no longer go out with our armies. You made us retreat before the enemy, and our adversaries have plundered us.

 We can all pretend that after we turn our lives over to Christ everything will go well for us. Often it does. After all, isn’t He on our side? Isn’t He working on our behalf for our success? Why would He allow stress, trouble, and hardship to come our way?

The truth is the LORD is far more interested in developing our character than our comfort. Character development doesn’t happen without adversity. James, our Lord’s brother has some sound advice on this topic.

Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything (James 1:2-4).

I dislike adversity, but we should greet adversity as a friend—a friend that provokes us to prayer and to overcoming. Hard times push us into discovering God’s grace afresh. 

Response
LORD God, help me to see the difficulties I face as steppingstones to victory. I know I need your help, so I call out to you. Change me through the hard times. You are my Savior and my God. Amen.

Your Turn
How has adversity helped to develop your character? Does getting everything you want stunt spiritual development?

Jesus Predicts Peter’s Denial

Simon Peter asked him,
“Lord, where are you going?”

Jesus replied,
“Where I am going,
you cannot follow now,
but you will follow later.”

Peter asked,
“Lord, why can’t I follow you now?
I will lay down my life for you.”

Then Jesus answered,

Very truly I tell you,

I will praise the LORD!

Niagara Falls — photo by David Kitz


Reading: Psalm 42:6-11

Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:

My soul is downcast within me;
    therefore I will remember you
from the land of the Jordan,
    the heights of Hermon—from Mount Mizar.
Deep calls to deep
    in the roar of your waterfalls;
all your waves and breakers
    have swept over me.
By day the LORD directs his love,
    at night his song is with me—
    a prayer to the God of my life.
I say to God my Rock,
    “Why have you forgotten me?
Why must I go about mourning,
    oppressed by the enemy?”
My bones suffer mortal agony
    as my foes taunt me,
saying to me all day long,
    “Where is your God?”
Why, my soul, are you downcast?
    Why so disturbed within me?
Put your hope in God,
    for I will yet praise him,
    my Savior and my God. (NIV)

James—the brother of Jesus—who was this man? What evidence do we have that this “brother of our Lord” even existed?

David Kitz digs deep into archeology, family dynamics, church history, and the biblical texts. What emerges from his research is a portrait of a decisive, pivotal leader who embodied the will and character of Jesus Christ.

But how did James—James the unbeliever—transform to become a leader who changed the course of world history? In these pages you will uncover the answer and rediscover for yourself the life-changing power of the gospel.

You will look for me,

Where I am going,
you cannot come.

Judas Betrays Jesus 

His disciples stared at one another,
at a loss to know which of them he meant.
One of them,
the disciple whom Jesus loved,
was reclining next to him.
Simon Peter motioned to this disciple and said,
“Ask him which one he means.”

Leaning back against Jesus,
he asked him, “Lord, who is it?”

Jesus answered,
“It is the one to whom
I will give this piece of bread
when I have dipped it in the dish.”
Then, dipping the piece of bread,
he gave it to Judas,
the son of Simon Iscariot. 
As soon as Judas took the bread,
Satan entered into him.

So Jesus told him,
“What you are about to do, do quickly.” 
But no one at the meal understood
why Jesus said this to him. 
Since Judas had charge of the money,
some thought Jesus was telling him
to buy what was needed for the festival,
or to give something to the poor. 
As soon as Judas had taken the bread,
he went out.
And it was night.
(John 13:22-30).

Today’s

Reading: Psalm 42:1-5

Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:

LORD God,
I thank you for Jesus.
I am thankful you are the true water of life
and when we drink of your Spirit,
springs of water flow from us
to you and to others.
Hallelujah!
Amen.

Jesus Washes His Disciples Feet 

 Jesus knew that the Father
had put all things under his power,
and that he had come from God
and was returning to God; 
so he got up from the meal,
took off his outer clothing,
and wrapped a towel around his waist. 
After that,
he poured water into a basin
and began to wash his disciples’ feet,
drying them with the towel
that was wrapped around him.

He came to Simon Peter,
who said to him,
“Lord, are you going to wash my feet?”

Jesus replied,
“You do not realize now what I am doing,
but later you will understand.”

“No,” said Peter,
“you shall never wash my feet.”

Jesus answered,
“Unless I wash you, you have no part with me.”

“Then, Lord,” Simon Peter replied,
“not just my feet
but my hands and my head as well!”

Jesus answered,
“Those who have had a bath
need only to wash their feet;
their whole body is clean.
And you are clean,
though not every one of you.” 
For he knew who was going to betray him,
and that was why he said not every one was clean.
(John 13:3-11).

Thirst for the LORD

Today’s Devotion from Psalms 365 by David Kitz

Reading: Psalm 42:1-5

Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:

For the director of music. A maskil of the Sons of Korah.
As the deer pants for streams of water,
    so my soul pants for you, my God.
My soul thirsts for God, for the living God.
    When can I go and meet with God?
My tears have been my food day and night,
while people say to me all day long,
    “Where is your God?”
These things I remember as I pour out my soul:
how I used to go to the house of God
    under the protection of the Mighty One
with shouts of joy and praise
    among the festive throng.
Why, my soul, are you downcast?
    Why so disturbed within me?
Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him,
    my Savior and my God.
(NIV)*

Reflection

Thirst is one of our most basic cravings. Our need for water far exceeds our need for food. The human body can go 60 days or more without food, but only about ten days without water. Your body needs water because it is water. About two thirds, (2/3) of your body weight is water.

But you are more than skin filled with bones and water. Paul, the apostle, closes his first letter to the Thessalonians with this prayer, “May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ (Thessalonians 5:23).

As Paul states, we are spirit, soul, and body. By nature—by God’s design—you are two thirds, (2/3) spiritual. You are more than a collection of molecules. You are a living soul with a spirit that was designed and intended to commune with God. Therefore, just as our physical body thirsts for water, so our spiritual man thirsts for God.

This should be our constant prayer, “As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, my God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When can I go and meet with God?”

 Are you thirsting for God? The truth is we all thirst for God. Some of us know how to mask our thirst or we substitute other things for the true living water. But the thirst remains. We need to heed Jesus’ invitation. On the last and greatest day of the festival, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, “Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink” (John 7:37).

Response
LORD God, I thank you for Jesus. I am thankful you are the true water of life and when we drink of your Spirit, springs of water flow from us. Hallelujah! Amen.

Your Turn
Have you tasted the life-changing, life-invigorating water of Christ?

Jesus Predicts His Betrayal 

“I am not referring to all of you;
I know those I have chosen.
But this is to fulfill this passage of Scripture:
‘He who shared my bread
has turned against me.’
I am telling you now before it happens,
so that when it does happen
you will believe that I am who I am.
Very truly I tell you,
whoever accepts anyone I send accepts me;
and whoever accepts me
accepts the one who sent me.”

After he had said this,
Jesus was troubled in spirit and testified,
“Very truly I tell you,
one of you is going to betray me”
(John 13:18-21).*


This is love:
not that we loved God,
but that he loved us and sent his Son

 forgive me
when I have looked down on others in need.
Open my eyes to someone
I may help today.
In Jesus name I pray.
Amen.

Jesus Shows Compassion 

Jesus went through all the towns and villages,
teaching in their synagogues,
proclaiming the good news of the kingdom
and healing every disease and sickness. 
When he saw the crowds,
he had compassion on them,
because they were harassed and helpless,
like sheep without a shepherd. 
Then he said to his disciples,
“The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few.”
(Matthew 9:35-37 NIV)*


This is love:
not that we loved God,
but that he loved us and sent his Son
as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.
(1 John 4:10 NIV)

Watch the triumphal entry of the donkey-riding king through the eyes of Marcus Longinus, the centurion charged with keeping the streets from erupting into open rebellion.

Look behind the scenes at the political plotting of King Herod, known as the scheming Fox for his ruthless shrewdness.

Get a front-row seat to the confrontation between the Jewish high priest Caiaphas and the Roman governor Pontius Pilate.

Understand as never before the horror of the decision to save a brutal terrorist in order to condemn the peaceful Jew to death.
