Walk with God
Enoch walked faithfully with God; then he was no more, because God took him away.—Genesis 5:24 (NIV)
When the disciples James and John saw this, they said, “Lord, do you want us to call fire down from heaven to consume them?”—Luke 9:54 (CEB)
James and John were humiliated and angry when they asked for God to call the fire down. Revenge is not the answer. When you are upset, feeling hurt and rejected, ask God to heal your pain and change your focus to love and compassion.
Dear Lord, keep my spirit in check. Help me douse flames of revenge with Your love.
Enoch walked faithfully with God; then he was no more, because God took him away.—Genesis 5:24 (NIV)
For you are all children of light, children of the day. We are not of the night or of the darkness.—1 Thessalonians 5:5 (ESV)
After removing Saul, he made David their king. God testified concerning him: “I have found David son of Jesse, a man after my own heart; he will do everything I want him to do.”—Acts 13:22 (NIV)
