📌 Read Today's Passages (April 10, 2022)
Guiding Scripture: Proverbs 12:26 (KJV), "The righteous is more excellent than his neighbour: but the way of the wicked seduceth them."
Contributing Writer: Temi Michael-O
What makes us righteous is not what we do to earn God’s love. Rather, we are righteous because we respond to God’s love by keeping his commandments (John 14:15). As we choose the ways of an excellent God, we become people of excellence and a guide for those around us.
Proverbs 12:26 reminds me of Daniel in the old testament. Daniel was a standard for others. Daniel 6:3 (KJV) says, “Then this Daniel was preferred above the presidents and princes, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm.” The same spirit of excellence is in every believer who has received the Holy Spirt (Acts 19:2), and we are empowered to operate in excellence as we lean on the Holy Spirit for help in our endeavors.
