MANY WILL SAY LORD, LORD / MATTHEW 7:22

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Matthew 7:22

Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?

MANY WILL SAY LORD, LORD / MATTHEW 7:22

Jesus clearly states that there will be “many” who believe they are serving Him and who appear to do great works for Him, yet in reality they never had a true personal relationship with Christ (Matthew 7:23). To escape the temptation and deceit that will be very common in the end times, church leaders (or any follower of Christ) must be totally committed to the truth revealed in God’s Word (Revelation 22:19). We must never consider outward “success” or results from ministry as the standard by which to determine our relationship with Christ. Each of us must strive to know Him deeply and to live by the instructions and guidelines in God’s Word.

DOES THE WILL OF MY FATHER / MATTHEW 7:21

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Matthew 7:21

Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.

DOES THE WILL OF MY FATHER / MATTHEW 7:21

Jesus emphatically taught that carrying out God’s purposes and desires was a condition for entering the kingdom of heaven (Matthew 7:22-27; 19:16-26; 25:31-46). This certainly does not mean that we can earn spiritual salvation by our own efforts or works. This is true for the following reasons:

  1. God’s forgiveness comes to us through faith and repentance (admitting our sin, turning from our own way, submitting to God and following His purposes). It is made possible by the grace and sacrificial death of Christ, who gave His perfect life to pay the ultimate penalty for our sins (Matthew 26:28; Luke 15:11-32; 18:9-14).
  2. The obedience of God’s will demanded by Christ is an ongoing condition for salvation; it does not save us, but it is a response and a result of true salvation. Yet, it is still God’s power and grace (undeserved favor, love and help) that enable us to live by His standards. This means that we must continually pray for that grace, receive it and put it into action by true faith and devotion to Christ. Note the Lord’s Prayer (Matthew 6:9; Matthew 6:10; Matthew 6:11; Matthew 6:12; Matthew 6:13) and the many challenges and warnings directed toward Christians, telling them to put sin to death (to rid their lives of sin and not respond to its appeal) and to present themselves to God as living sacrifices (Romans 6:1-23; 8:1-17; 12:1-2; Matthew 5:6).
  3. Because of the gift of God’s power and grace, we are capable of doing God’s power and grace, we are capable of doing God’s will and living right as we follow Christ with all of our heart (Ephesians 2:5). God’s Word says that “by grace you have been saved, through faith – and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God…For we are God’s workmanship” (Ephesians 2:8-10).
  4. God always gives us the strength and ability to obey Him and overcome sin. That is part of the full salvation He works out through those who have entrusted their lives to Him and have been restored to a personal relationship with Jesus. “For it is God who works out through those who have entrusted their lives to him and have been restored to a personal relationship with Jesus. “For it is God who works in you to will and to act according to His good purpose” (Philippians 2:13). Yet God’s gift of grace – His favor, help and mercy that we do not deserve – does not cancel the need for action on our part. We must respond positively to God’s gift of obedience (Ephesians 4:22-32; Jude 1:20-21; Jude 1:24-25; Philippians 2:12). We are always free to reject God’s grace, refuse to depend on Christ (Hebrews 7:25) and refuse to pray for and accept the life of obedience (Matthew 5:6).

BY THEIR FRUIT YOU WILL RECOGNIZE THEM / MATTHEW 7:16

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Matthew 7:16

Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?

BY THEIR FRUIT YOU WILL RECOGNIZE THEM / MATTHEW 7:16

False teachers who outwardly appear to be godly but “inwardly…are ferocious wolves” (Matthew 7:5) can be identified by their “fruit” – their true spiritual character and their effect on others. With time, their fruit always shows what is really in their hearts. The fruit shows what is really in their hearts. The fruit of false teachers will be spiritually unhealthy, and they will produce ungodly fruit in the lives of their followers (1 John 4:5-6), such as those listed below. 

  1. They will claim to follow Christ but will be more loyal to the personalities of men than to God’s Word (Matthew 7:21). That is to say, they worship the creature more than the Creator (Romans 1:25). 
  2. They will be more concerned with their own desires than with God’s glory and honor. Their beliefs and teachings will be self-centered rather than God-centered (Matthew 7:21-23; 2 Timothy 4:3). 
  3. They will accept human teachings and traditions even when those teachings contradict God’s Word (Matthew 7:24-27; 1 John 4:6). 
  4. They will seek and respond to religious experiences and supernatural activity as their final authority in determining “truth” (Matthew 7:22-23), rather than spiritually growing up in the instruction of God’s entire Word. 

They will not accept the true and authoritative teaching of God’s Word but will instead look for and listen only to teachers who say what they want to hear, as if the road to salvation is “wide” and permissive (Matthew 7:14). Jesus says they want only to respond to messages that accept and approve of their selfish interests and ungodly behavior (Matthew 7:13-14, 23; 2 Timothy 4:3).

SMALL IS THE GATE … AND ONLY A FEW FIND IT / MATTHEW 7:14

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Matthew 7:14

Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

SMALL IS THE GATE … AND ONLY A FEW FIND IT / MATTHEW 7:14

Christ taught that we are not to expect a majority of people to follow Him on the road that leads to eternal life with God. 

  1. Comparatively few will pass through the gate of godly humility and true repentance (Matthew 3:2) – turning from and denying their own way in order to follow Jesus. This means doing all that we can to obey His commands, pursuing His purposes and standards and pressing on through the difficulties of life with true faith, purity and love. 

In His Sermon on the Mount, Jesus describes the great benefits and blessings that go along with being His disciple (a disciplined follower, learner, Matthew 5:3-12). Jesus taught that following Him is costly. It involves making difficult choices and going through difficult situations at times. There are obligations concerning right living, pressing on in faith through persecution, love for our enemies and self-denial. The initial step of surrendering to Christ and accepting His forgiveness for sin may not be difficult but trusting Him to make the necessary life changes and continuing to follow Him, no matter what, is not an easy path to follow and will test our faith extremely.

YOUR FATHER … GIVE GOOD GIFTS / MATTHEW 7:11

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Matthew 7:11

If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?

YOUR FATHER … GIVE GOOD GIFTS / MATTHEW 7:11

Christ promises that God the Father will not disappoint His children. He loves us even more than any good earthly father could love his children; and He wants us to ask Him for whatever we need, promising to give us what is good and best for us. He desires to provide solutions for our problems and to supply our daily needs. And most of all, He gives the Holy Spirit to His children as their Counselor and Helper (Luke 11:13; John 14:16-18).

ASK … SEEK … KNOCK / MATTHEW 7:7-8

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Matthew 7:7-8

Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: 8 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

ASK … SEEK … KNOCK / MATTHEW 7:7-8

Jesus encourages perseverance (“active patience,” determination) in prayer. The tense of the Greek verbs in Matthew 7:8 carries the meaning of action that keeps going on. This means we must keep on asking, seeking and knocking. This does not mean that we need to beg God to answer our prayers. Rather, it means that instead of worrying about a certain issue, we take it to God and acknowledge that the situation is in His hands. Asking means that we recognize our needs and that we trust God to hear our prayers. Seeking means that our request is earnest and that we are willing to obey God and pursue His purposes when He responds with an answer or instruction. Knocking means that we keep bringing the request to God even when He does not respond quickly. Such “active patience “does not show a lack of faith, but rather a constant admission that we need God’s help and have turned over our needs to Him. Christ’s assurance that those who ask will receive from God based on:

  1. Keeping our priorities focused on God and seeking His kingdom purposes first (Matthew 6:33)
  2. Recognizing God’s fatherly goodness and love (Matthew 6:8; 7:11; John 15:16; 16:23, 26; Colossians 1:9-12)
  3. Praying according to God’s will and keeping our desires in line with His (Mark 11:24; John 21:22; 1 John 5:14)

Maintaining communication and friendship with Christ (1 John 3:22).

DO NOT JUDGE / MATTHEW 7:1

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Matthew 7:1

Judge not, that ye be not judged.

DO NOT JUDGE / MATTHEW 7:1

Jesus condemns the habit of criticizing others while we ignore our own faults. Believers must first submit to God’s righteous examination and to the standards of His Word before attempting to evaluate and influence the conduct of others – particularly other Christians (Matthew 7:3-5). Judging in an unjust or unqualified manner also includes condemning or rejecting someone who is doing wrong without sincerely desiring to see the person turn to God and receive forgiveness (Luke 6:36-34). It is an attitude that would prefer God’s judgment on people before they respond to His mercy. 

  1. This passage is often abused and taken out of context to defend behavior that is immoral and clearly contrary to the instruction in God’s Word. However, Christ is not denying the need to exercise discernment or make value judgments with respect to sin in others. We certainly must do this in order to avoid the sin ourselves. There also are times when we must speak out against certain behaviors that defy God and corrupt society – especially when those behaviors make their way into the church. Jesus commands us to identify false ministers within the church – those whose message is not consistent with God’s Word (Matthew 7:15). He also expects us to consider how a person’s character compares with the standards of truth given in God’s Word in order to avoid associating with people who lack integrity and could influence us to disobey God (Matthew 7:6; John 7:24; 1 Corinthians 5:12; Galatians 1:9; 1 Timothy 4:1; 1 John 4:1).
  2. This verse must not be used as an excuse for not exercising church discipline (Matthew 18:15). God does not expect us to tolerate continual sin in our own lives or in the lives of people in the church because it will cut off the flow of the Holy spirit’s work in and through a congregation.  

Jesus follows His warning about making undue judgments by saying that we should “not give dogs what is sacred” or “throw pearls to pigs” (Matthew 7:6). He is saying that there is no use trying to teach or correct a person beyond their ability to understand the truth. This explains why it is usually ineffective for God’s followers to attempt to correct sinful behaviors in the world by “attacking” those who are still enslaved to sin. This only leads to greater opposition, and they react by choosing to “trample” on the truth.

IF I AM BEREAVED / GENESIS 43:14

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Genesis 43:14

And God Almighty give you mercy before the man, that he may send away your other brother, and Benjamin. If I be bereaved of my children, I am bereaved.

IF I AM BEREAVED / GENESIS 43:14

When Israel saw that there was nothing he could do to change his terrible circumstances, he simply prayed for mercy and trusted God to take care of his sons. He was willing to accept God’s will even if it meant loss and suffering. But as things turned out, he was able to spend the rest of his life celebrating the goodness of the One who had guided him all his life.

I WILL BEAR THE BLAME / GENESIS 43:9

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Genesis 43:9

I will be surety for him; of my hand shalt thou require him: if I bring him not unto thee, and set him before thee, then let me bear the blame for ever:

I WILL BEAR THE BLAME / GENESIS 43:9

Like Reuben (Genesis 42:37), Judah willingly accepted responsibility for his brother, Benjamin. He offered to take full blame should Benjamin not come back safely.

TURN THE HEARTS OF THE FATHERS TO THEIR CHILDREN / MALACHI 4:6

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Malachi 4:6

And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.

TURN THE HEARTS OF THE FATHERS TO THEIR CHILDREN / MALACHI 4:6

The future ministry of the coming prophet is described in terms of bringing families into a right relationship with God and with each other. John the Baptist preached with this as part of his message (Luke 1:17).

  1. Our churches and ministries must place the highest priority on building strong families based on proper authority, faithfulness and love. If we fail to do so, our faithfulness and love. If we fail to do so, our churches will not experience God’s Blessing or the spiritual fulfillment that His Spirit can bring to our lives. The church itself is the family of God, and it must help maintain the integrity (the stability, uprightness and wholeness) of the family unit. 
  2. The ones most responsible for accomplishing this task – keeping families unified and strong – are fathers. Fathers must love their children by praying for them (John 17:1), spending time with them, instructing them about the ungodly ways of the world and diligently teaching them to live by God’s Word and standard. 

Pastors and other ministry leaders today must also make this a goal and purpose in their ministry as they prepare the church for the Lord’s coming (Luke 1:17).
