TODAY’S BRIEFING

VANTAGE POINT DEVOTIONAL

  • Monday, November 2

    Today, the Supreme Court is hearing oral arguments in two cases.

    US Supreme Court plaque

    The justices will consider, in Maxwell v. Dinis, whether disputes over an inmate’s First Step Act time credits may be determined under certain U.S. statutes and whether the obstruction of the administrative remedy of the request creates an issue for a jury or trial court.

    In the second case, the justices will be determining whether defendants may assert an affirmative defense as the basis for a summary judgment without amending or seeking to amend a previous answer that did not include an affirmative defense plea.

    As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…

    • For wisdom for the Supreme Court justices as they hear and decide cases.
    • For President Trump as he engages in discussions and negotiations with foreign leaders.
    • For U.S. officials to be discerning as they implement foreign and domestic policies.
    • For justice system administrators and federal judges as they consider appeals from defendants and inmates.

  • Antidote to Worry

       Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. – Philippians 4:6

    Servant Leadership Evangelist Dr. Madana Kumar has explained the reasons people worry. He stated that the ignorant worry because they do not know enough, and the knowledgeable worry because they know too much. The rich worry because they are afraid of losing what they have, and the poor worry because they do not have enough. The elderly worry because they are facing death, while the young worry because they are facing life. Parents worry about the children they have, and childless couples worry over the children they do not have. The list goes on and you could probably add a few of your own. 

    While anxiety may be a normal part of the human condition, God calls His children to trust and not be afraid (Isaiah 12:2). You can bring your worries to God, rather than nurturing and growing the fear. Nothing is too small or too great for Him. Being grateful is an antidote to worry. As you release the grip on your fears, your spirit opens to receive His peace! The apostle Peter said to cast your cares upon the Lord (1 Peter 5:7). Why? Because He cares for you. He loves you. He waits for you. And Paul directs you in today’s verse to be thankful as you turn those concerns over to Him. Rejoice in His love for you today. 

    As you praise Him, ask that the Lord would be glorified and His will be accomplished in the midterm election outcome. And intercede for governing officials who have yet to know and embrace the Savior.

    Today’s Verse: Philippians 4:6

    do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.

    25 “Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? 26 Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? 27 And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life? 28 And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, 29 yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 30 But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? 31 Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. 33 But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. 

    34 “Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
