Tuesday, September 4: Psalms 85-87, 1 Corinthians 10 ~ Danae


Today's passage from the Bible In a Year Reading Plan is Psalms 85-87, 1 Corinthians 10

1 Corinthians 10:12
So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don’t fall!”

We shouldn’t get careless in our walk with God, thinking that we’re all good & get lazy with time in the word & prayer. We shouldn’t put ourselves into tempting situations feeling that we’re strong Christians & we’ll be ok. Rather we should be continually alert knowing that Satan will come at us, seeking to destroy.

Verse 10 warns Christians not to grumble. When we grumble, we very quickly shift our focus from God’s goodness to a woe is me attitude. We forget our blessings & dwell on what we don’t have. A good way to stay firm in our faith is to continually remember what God has done for us.

Stand firm so as not to fall...Verse 13 speaks of temptations that we will face. We are promised a way out, to be able to stand up under it but the more secure our faith is, the easier it will be for us when we face those times.
