“So the governors and satraps sought to find some charge against Daniel concerning the kingdom; but they could find no charge or fault, because he was faithful; nor was there any error or fault found in him.”
Daniel 6:4 (NKJV)
Faithfulness gave Daniel the courage to disobey the king’s edict and saved him from the den of lions.
“As children of the Lord, we are required to live a life of holiness of body and mind.”
Garvin R. Alfter
“But as he who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, since it is written, ‘You shall be holy, for I am holy.’” —1 Peter 1:15-16 (ESV)
“If you want to receive God’s forgiveness, you must forgive others. What you give is what you get back.”
Garvin R. Alfter
“For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.” —Matthew 6:14-15 (KJV)
“Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.”
–Hebrews 10:25 (KJV)
Exhort means to call to one’s side in order to comfort, to encourage, to strengthen and to instruct.
Devotion could be defined as intentionally putting someone or something first. Top priority. For the Christian, devotion is putting Jesus first and foremost in every aspect of life.
Garvin R. Alfter
“I say this for your own benefit, not to lay any restraint upon you, but to promote good order and to secure your undivided devotion to the Lord.” –1 Corinthians 7:35 ESV
