Lent Devotion, Day 21 of 44

Read Matthew 21: http://bible.oremus.org/?ql=482293773

Scripture: v. 21:43 Therefore I tell you that the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people who will produce its fruit.

Observation: Doing God’s will is even more important than saying we will. We are judged according to our actions.

Application: My actions are the basis of my witness. They should bear fruit for God’s kingdom, worthy of the many chances God gives us to change our lives (repentance).

Prayer: Lord, forgive me where my actions have reflected poorly on your kingdom. I pray that my actions may better reflect your glory. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
