Idol Worship

Summary: One of the key problems when you worship an idol is that you end up worshiping a god that’s been made in your own image instead of worshiping God, who made you in His image. Verse: "You shall not make for yourself a carved image—any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate me, but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love me and keep my commandments." —Exodus 20:4-6 For more daily devotionals, visit www.itiswritten.com/betterway 03/31/08

The First Commandment

Summary: The first commandment isn't just for God’s own good—it's for our own good. This passage tries to spare us the bitter grief of discovering that we've been trusting the wrong things in life. Verse: "And God spoke all these words, saying: 'I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. You shall have no other gods before me.'" —Exodus 20:1-3 For more daily devotionals, visit www.itiswritten.com/betterway 03/24/08

Wisdom

Summary: What is true wisdom? Verse: "Do you see a man wise in his own eyes? There is more hope for a fool than for him." —Proverbs 26:12 For more daily devotionals, visit www.itiswritten.com/betterway 03/20/08

Playing With Fire

Summary: It’s tempting to think that in our modern day and age, we’ve become advanced enough to keep certain sins in a carefully designed enclosure—dressing them up with sophisticated language and reinterpreting them as insignificant or merely entertaining. But if you play with fire, you will get burned. Verse: "Can a man take fire to his bosom, and his clothes not be burned? Can one walk on hot coals, and his feet not be seared? So is he who goes in to his neighbor's wife; whoever touches her shall not be innocent." —Proverbs 6:27-29 For more daily devotionals, visit www.itiswritten.com/betterway 03/19/08

Asking for Wisdom

Summary: If you're wondering what to do with a given situation, it really pays to know Someone who already knows. We're encouraged to ask God for wisdom, because He’s eager to give it. Verse: "That their hearts may be encouraged, being knit together in love, and attaining to all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the knowledge of the mystery of God, both of the Father and of Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge." —Colossians 2:2-3 For more daily devotionals, visit www.itiswritten.com/betterway 03/18/08

"Why Me?"

Summary: One of the things that seems to be conspicuously absent from the writings of the Apostle Paul is the "why me" syndrome that many of us seem to fall into so easily. Verse: "But I want you to know, brethren, that the things which happened to me have actually turned out for the furtherance of the gospel, so that it has become evident to the whole palace guard, and to all the rest, that my chains are in Christ; and most of the brethren in the Lord, having become confident by my chains, are much more bold to speak the word without fear." —Philippians 1:12-14 For more daily devotionals, visit www.itiswritten.com/betterway 03/17/08

Faith, Works and Sacrifice

Summary: When we make a sacrifice or give things up willingly for God—such as fasting or not working in observance of the fourth commandment—does that mean we're trying to work our way into Heaven? Verse: "I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service." —Romans 12:1 For more daily devotionals, visit www.itiswritten.com/betterway 03/13/08

Civility

Summary: When disagreements become inevitable, try to keep your argument as private as possible. In the long run, it might just save you from an embarrassing reputation that could take a lifetime to shake. Verse: "Do not go hastily to court; for what will you do in the end, when your neighbor has put you to shame? Debate your case with your neighbor himself, and do not disclose the secret to another; lest he who hears it expose your shame, and your reputation be ruined." —Proverbs 25:8-10 For more daily devotionals, visit www.itiswritten.com/betterway 03/12/08

Pre-Qualification in Witnessing

Summary: When it comes to sharing our faith with the people around us, most of us are really good at pre-qualifying candidates and finding some reason not to start a discussion. What can this verse teach us about pre-qualifiying? Verse: "And he departed from there and entered the house of a certain man named Justus, one who worshiped God, whose house was next door to the synagogue." —Acts 18:7 For more daily devotionals, visit www.itiswritten.com/betterway

The Rich and Famous

Summary: I suppose in some ways, we just can't help it—we're irresistibly drawn to the rich and famous. For some reason, we seem to think if we can only get close to those kinds of people, it says something about our own status in life. But what does the Bible say about the issue? Verse: "For if there should come into your assembly a man with gold rings, in fine apparel, and there should also come in a poor man in filthy clothes, and you pay attention to the one wearing the fine clothes and say to him, 'You sit here in a good place,' and say to the poor man, 'You stand there,' or, 'Sit here at my footstool,' have you not shown partiality among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts? Listen, my beloved brethren: Has God not chosen the poor of this world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which He promised to those who love Him?" —James 2:2-5 For more daily devotionals, visit www.itiswritten.com/betterway
