Personal Story Of The Day
Unconditional Love
Our motives are never 100% pure, and we fear we will be rejected if they are exposed. So even while we are rejoicing in the acceptance of God's love, we live with the fear of being unmasked, revealing that we are much less than what others think us to be. When we consider our relationship with God, therefore, we tend to feel that His affection for us is based on our performance.
When we do well, He loves us; but if we slip up, then we expect only His scorn. Yet God does not love us because we deserve it. He loves us in spite of what we are. In 1 John 4:10 we read, In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son." Because of what Jesus Christ has done for us, we know we are always loved by God. That simple truth shatters our pride and dispels our fear... and that love existed while we lived in sin and without repentance.
How much more now?

Devotional Thoughts Of The Day
God Supplied The Blessing
..And all the earth sought to Solomon, to hear his wisdom, which God had put in his heart. 1Kings 10:24. References from 1 Kings 8:41-42; 10:1-9.
In the middle of the seventeenth century, King Louis 14th of France began constructing a palace that would display his power and glory. Its vast rooms were filled with precious art pieces and gilded ceilings. Nobility throughout France and from all over Europe sought an audience with the king at Versailles. Its glorious splendours only confirmed Louis 14's title, the Sun King. The glory of Versailles is undeniable, but 1 Kings tells us that kings from all over the world eagerly sought the splendour of Solomon's wisdom, his palace, and the temple.
With Solomon we see even further fulfilment of the promise made to Abraham. By this time, Israel was a great nation with vast borders and wealth. Jerusalem had become a world centre that attracted many visitors. Perhaps the most famous of these visitors was the Queen of Sheba, an important South Arabian trade centre. Her visit indicates the importance of Israel among the nations. But the Queen of Sheba didn't visit Solomon simply because of his wealth and fame. The account in 1Kings 10 is quite clear that she was drawn to Solomon because of his relationship with the Lord (v1). When she saw all the glory of Solomon and the temple, she praised the Lord and his eternal love for Israel (v9).
As we have seen before, God's favour toward Israel was intended to be a blessing to all the nations. The Queen blessed Solomon and was in turn blessed by him. Her visit anticipates later prophecies concerning the time when the nations will stream into Zion (Isa 2:2-4; 60-66) and to the New Jerusalem (Rev 21:24). The rest of Solomon's story isn't so happy.
After spending seven years building the temple (1 Kings 6:38), Solomon spent thirteen years building his own palace (1 Kings 7:1). Then in 1 Kings 11 we read about Solomon's love for foreign women. Toward the end of his life, he witnessed the rebellion of one of his officials, Jeroboam, who would eventually bring about the division of the kingdom.
The Rock Is Solid
And the LORD said unto Joshua, Fear not, neither be thou dismayed: take all the people of war with thee, and arise, go up to Ai: see, I have given into thy hand the king of Ai, and his people, and his city, and his land: Joshua 8:1.
Gibraltar is a small peninsula of the southern coast of Spain near the entrance to the Mediterranean Sea. Covering most of this peninsula is an enormous mass of limestone 1,398 feet high. This rocky mass has become a symbol of stability and certainty, and from which we get the expression, "Solid as the Rock of Gibraltar." Yet God's word is just as solid... and even more so.
Three times God spoke to Joshua of future events that were as good as done. In chapter 6, God said of Jericho, "See, I have given into thine hand Jericho, and the king thereof, and the mighty men of valour." (v2). And that's what happened. In chapter 8, He said to Joshua concerning Ai, "see, I have given into thy hand the king of Ai, and his people, and his city, and his land:" (v1). Sure enough, it came about (v18-25). Then in chapter 10, God promised Joshua victory over the Amorites, saying, "Do not fear them, for I have delivered them into your hand" (v8). Again, God came through on His word (v10-11).
While the Rock of Gibraltar will some day crumble, God's words never will. Jesus promised, "Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will never pass away" (Mat 24:35). In a day of instability and change, we can be confident that what God says, He will do. What He declares, He will perform. If you are feeling bewildered by upheaval in your life, look to the Rock... not the rock of Gibraltar, but the Rock of Christ. Take Him at His word; He will never change. Don't settle for a rock when you can have the Rock.
