Daily Bread – March 6, 2024 (The Fourth Day – Genesis 1:14-19) Psalms 84:11 – For YHWH (Lord) God is a sun and a shield, YHWH gives grace and glory. He will not withhold any good thing from those who walk uprightly. God’s Grace & Glory Are Everything We Need God is our sun, the source of life, the source of joy and happiness (Isaiah 60:19-20; Malachi 4:2). God is our shield, our protector and provider – we have nothing to fear. It’s impossible to go wrong or miss out when God is for us. When God is for you, who could be against you or be able to succeed with any evil plan. Just as He told Abraham not to fear, we should hear the same reassuring voice of God telling us He is also our shield (Genesis 15:1; 1 John 4:17-18). If we will make the purposes of God first in our lives, then God will give us all the things men spend their whole lives seeking for. If we are willing to walk with God, then we will surely discover He is our exceeding great reward (Matthew 6:33; Mark 10:28-30; Philippians 4:19; Hebrews 11:6; Genesis 15:1). God’s grace and glory are everything we need to walk in the fullness of His blessings. God’s grace is the means by which we are empowered to do everything He has purposed for us to do – so how can we possibly fail? His grace provides us with His wisdom and understanding and the ability to accomplish every task. God’s glory carries with it every attribute of His power and wealth. If we are willing to walk uprightly, God will honor us in this glorious way. For He desires to show the immeasurable riches of His grace that He has given to us through Christ Jesus (Ephesians 2:6-7, 1:3, 17-18; Proverbs 22:4; 1 Chronicles 16:27; 2 Peter 1:3-4).
