Guiding Scripture: Hebrews 11:17-18, ‘By faith Abraham, when God tested him, offered Isaac as a sacrifice. He who had embraced the promises was about to sacrifice his one and only son, even though God had said to him, “It is through Isaac that your offspring will be reckoned.” 

Loyal to God

written by: Torrie Slaughter

Abraham exemplifies what it means to have undivided loyalty to our Almighty God. As you read today’s scriptures, I want you to carefully and deliberately read Psalm 111. Try reading it in several translations and explore the language and how it echos Hebrews 11.

Psalm 111:1-10 NLT

1 Praise the Lord! 

I will thank the Lord with all my heart 

as I meet with his godly people. 

2 How amazing are the deeds of the Lord! 

All who delight in him should ponder them. 

3 Everything he does reveals his glory and majesty. 

His righteousness never fails. 

4 He causes us to remember his wonderful works. 

How gracious and merciful is our Lord! 

5 He gives food to those who fear him; 

he always remembers his covenant. 

6 He has shown his great power to his people by giving them the lands of other nations. 

7 All he does is just and good, 

and all his commandments are trustworthy. 

8 They are forever true, 

to be obeyed faithfully and with integrity. 

9 He has paid a full ransom for his people. 

He has guaranteed his covenant with them forever. 

What a holy, awe-inspiring name he has! 

10 Fear of the Lord is the foundation of true wisdom. 

All who obey his commandments will grow in wisdom. 

Praise him forever!

Prayer: Father, increase our trust in you so that we can boldly follow your commands. Amen.
