Interpreting Life The heart of this message is this: life is always preaching, and we need a preacher, like Solomon, who in Ecclesiastes helps us interpret life's message. But ultimately we need Jesus to interpret what life and the preachers, like Solomon, are saying. Because this world has been touched by sin, deception, suffering, and death, we cannot safely interpret life by our feelings, culture, circumstances, or the opinions of others. Jesus has graciously spoken beforehand so that when things happen, we can recognize what He has already said, believe Him, and walk in His light. LIFE IS PREACHING — JESUS MUST INTERPRET IT Jesus says in John 14:29, "I have told you before it comes, that when it does come to pass, you may believe." His Word prepares us for what we will encounter. We may not always understand why something happens, but we can know how to walk through it because Christ has given us His truth, His Spirit, and His people. The world cannot teach us Christ. We do not interpret Jesus through the world; Jesus teaches us how to interpret the world. What the world calls good may not be good before God. What culture calls freedom may actually be bondage. Therefore, we must continually ask, "What has Jesus said?" THE KINGDOM HAS A DIFFERENT INHERITANCE In 1 Corinthians 6:9–11, Paul reminds believers that the unrighteous do not inherit the kingdom of God. But then comes the glorious word: "Such were some of you." We were sinners, but in Christ we have been washed, sanctified, and justified. And when Jesus washes somebody, He thoroughly washes them. His cleansing does not leave us half-clean. Grace not only forgives us; it repurposes us. We are sanctified—se

This message is from the Sovereign Outreach 4 Grace / SO4G 2026 Friday Devotional Message Series - Sermon Audio Broadcast Series. This message was delivered by SO4G Director, Brother Douglas Salyer at the Princess Chapel Church in Ashland, Kentucky. The title of this devotional message was 'Called According to His Purpose', the main text was taken from the book of Romans 8:28-30, as well as various other Scripture texts.

Isaiah contrasts the confidence of Babylon with the hope of God's people. God's people have a sure and certain hope. False confidences pass away—whether as evidently as the ruins of Babylon have declared, or in any other case. By contrast, our God abides always the same. Even to old age—and this is a particular emphasis of Spurgeon in the sermon, given its textual context—he will carry us. Whatever else may change in us or around us, God himself does not change in himself or in his disposition toward us. And so it remains true that he has made us, both as creatures and as his people. He carries us, and those mercies toward us never alter. He also will deliver us. The structure of the sermon toward the end gets a little ragged, but the point is clear. We have the same God and the same mercy all through life. Spurgeon's two primary applications go in two opposite directions. The first is to the young, with whom he pleads to begin life with God, in order that they may enjoy him to the end. The second is to the aged, urging them to trust a God who has never let them down.

Listen-in to today's This Day In The Word radio teaching broadcast, "Affection for the Saints," and let's see what God's Word has to say.

it must be granted that the things here treated of are in themselves mysterious and abstruse. But yet, the way whereby we may endeavour an acquaintance with them, "according to the measure of the gift of Christ unto every one," is made plain in the Scriptures of truth. If this way be neglected or despised, all other ways of attempting the same end, be they never so vigorous or promising, will prove ineffectual. What belongs unto it as to the inward frame and disposition of mind in them who search after understanding in these things, what unto the outward use of means, what unto the performance of spiritual duties, what unto conformity in the whole soul unto each discovery of truth that is attained, is not my present work to declare, nor shall I divert thereunto. If God give an opportunity to treat concerning the work of the Holy Spirit, enabling us to understand the Scriptures, or the mind of God in them, the whole of this way will be at large declared.

This passage teaches us that God controls the reception of truth for salvation in some hearts and not all hearts.In fact, have you ever wondered why you trust Christ for salvation and many of your family and, or friends do not believe? Did you just get a dose of smarts one day and suddenly realize that it was the smart thing to do? According to this passage, your heart is like good soil that can grow crops , but how did it get that way ? This is what this parable is talking about in Mark chapter 4.

What is the true face of evil? When exploring what the Bible says about false teachers, we must realize that wolves in sheep's clothing often appear kind and highly appealing to the culture. In this message, Dr. Richard Caldwell explains the vital necessity of recognizing false teachers in the church by using biblical discernment rather than relying on our physical senses or emotional reactions. Because God judges perfectly and evaluates the hidden heart, believers must align their understanding with the biblical view of sin and evil. We are called to practice righteous judgment, cultivating a righteous hatred for false doctrine while maintaining a genuine, prayerful desire for the salvation of the lost.

Christians are called to encourage one another in suffering by being present, bearing burdens, speaking biblical truth with wisdom, and reflecting the comfort God has given them. In this episode, Dave Jenkins considers 2 Corinthians 1:3–4 and Galatians 6:2 and explains how the body of Christ cares for those walking through affliction.
