The Light

Someday, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, the Lord Jesus Himself will descend from heaven and with a voice that sounds like a war trumpet call His church from the earth to be with Him forever. Until that moment, Jesus is before God’s throne as our advocate, our Great High Priest. Come learn more from this passage Dr. McGee called “one of the most thrilling sections in the Word of God.”

What do you do when heaven is silent and God seems far away? Dr. John Neufeld examines Isaiah 40:27-31, where Israel cries out that their way is hidden from the Lord. Isaiah's response isn't to explain the silence, but to remind them who God is - everlasting, never growing weary, with unsearchable understanding. When we feel abandoned, we must preach God's attributes to ourselves, not because we feel them, but because they're true.

Today's individualistic culture is filled with "bunny believers," people who hop around from one church to another without any identity, accountability, or commitment.

Genesis 4:1-15 / January 7-8, 2026

The story of Cain and Abel is tossed around rather generally in both Christian and non-Christian circles. Many folks are aware of the big picture aspect of the account—namely, that the older brother murdered the younger—but beyond that, little is known and even less is applied to everyday life. But woven within and between the lines of this amazing story are several insights that await our discovery.

False accusations, broken trust, and relational pain can shake our confidence—but Psalm 27:13–14 reminds us that God’s goodness is still at work in the land of the living. This devotional encourages us to place our trust fully in God, not people, and to wait on Him with strength and courage when relationships fail.

Highlights

Betrayal and false accusations reveal how fragile human relationships can be.

Trusting people to meet soul-level needs often leads to disappointment.

David’s experience with Saul shows that jealousy and envy can drive cruelty.

A tree receives nourishment so it can bear fruit and nourish others. God wants you to do the same thing. He wants to fill you up with His Word so you can spread that truth to your neighbor.

Abram and Sarai knew the promise of God, but grew impatient with God’s timeline, not seeing how the promise could be fulfilled. They took matters into their own hands to further God’s agenda—and the results were disastrous. In this messy incident, we see the cost of sinful self-reliance and the abundant grace of God.

No matter how committed you are to Christ, your loyalty will be tested. Abraham faced the most difficult test a father could face—being asked to sacrifice his son. Abraham’s story is a great example of how trials can strengthen our commitment to God.

What does it mean that all the promises are yes in Christ? I heard that you're not truly saved if you can't overcome every struggle. Is that true? If we die with unrepentant sin, are we still forgiven? Isn't it amazing that God has time for each one of us? That's the beauty of Christ in you!

Today’s readings come from Proverbs 1:8-19, Matthew 6:25-7:23, Genesis 17 and 18

The opposition we, as Christians, face in this pagan world is nothing new. In Acts 17, Paul finds himself surrounded by a pagan society in Athens, Greece. Yet, the ones who opposed the Gospel in this passage are much like those who oppose the Gospel now. Paul’s response to this opposition is a picture of standing firm in a pagan world.

Idols - whether carved from wood or forged from gold - are products of human imagination, easily toppled and compared to creation. But the true God is beyond comparison, beyond human comprehension.

Celebrating someone else’s failure can reveal a deeper struggle with envy, comparison, and misplaced gratitude.

Envy can quietly turn another person’s hardship into our momentary emotional relief.

Dr. John Neufeld continues in Isaiah 40, where God commands the prophet to cry out a sobering truth: all flesh is grass, withering quickly like desert flowers in the scorching heat. But here's the contrast that changes everything: the word of our God stands forever. While idols and human plans crumble, God comes with omnipotent power, tending His flock like a shepherd who carries lambs in His arms.

“What’s it like to work just one day a week?” While many pastors find themselves on the receiving end of such questions, the reality is that as Gospel workers, pastors know their jobs are never really finished. As Alistair Begg notes, Paul’s instructions to his protégé Timothy make clear that the church is always in need of pastors who will study God’s Word diligently so they can remind their congregations of the essentials of the faith and present themselves to God as ones approved. Bible passages: 2 Timothy 2:14-15
