TODAY’S BRIEFING

VANTAGE POINT DEVOTIONAL

  • Friday, February 6

    Today, U.S. officials are meeting with Iranians in Oman to discuss halting Iran’s pursuit of nuclear weapons. After the U.S. increased its military presence in the Arabian Sea, an American fighter jet shot down an Iranian drone as it “aggressively approached” the USS Abraham Lincoln. An Iranian gunboat also harassed a U.S.-flagged tanker in the Strait of Hormuz.

    President Donald Trump urged Iran to “quickly ‘Come to the Table’ and negotiate a fair and equitable deal.” He warned that a U.S. “armada” was moving into position, and, “Like with Venezuela, it is ready, willing, and able to rapidly fulfill its mission, with speed and violence, if necessary.”

    Secretary of State Marco Rubio said, “We prefer to meet and talk. I’m not sure you can reach a deal with these guys, but we’re going to try to find out.”

    Secretary Rubio also addressed the civil uprising occurring in Iran, saying, “The Iranian people and the Iranian regime are very unalike. The leadership of Iran at the clerical level does not reflect the people of Iran. I know of no other country where there’s a bigger difference between the people that lead the country and the people who live there.”

    As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…

    • For President Trump and his Cabinet officials as they assess threats to U.S. security.
    • For Secretary Rubio to be discerning as he oversees U.S. diplomatic efforts around the world.
    • For the U.S. representatives to be prudent in their discussions seeking to prevent Iran’s nuclear armament.

  • Restorative Actions

    Aim for restoration, comfort one another, agree with one another, live in peace. – 2 Corinthians 13:11

    When the Dead Sea Scrolls were unearthed from a cave 1300 feet below sea level in 1947, one of the first thoughts was how to preserve them. The ancient text written on leather and papyrus has given the world beautiful insight into God’s written word. Unfortunately, the technology and science at the time of their discovery resulted in the original team of restorers using adhesive tape, which did not actually help preserve the documents! Today, much of the work on the scrolls’ fragments is to repair the damage done by those previous preservation efforts.

    Jesus was clear; He wanted His followers to live peaceably and love others as a testimony to the world. “By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another” (John 13:35). Like you, they were living in an era of great discontentment and division, yet this was Jesus’ command.

    Loving like Jesus requires living like Jesus. He did everything by the leading of the Holy Spirit. Adopt Jesus’ approach as you attempt to bridge the divides in your life. Wait for the Holy Spirit to lead you in what to say. Wait for God to guide you in what to do. Remember, like the restorers of the scrolls, sometimes you can do more harm than good by moving forward in well-meaning ignorance.

    Pray that the people of the U.S. would receive God’s loving comfort. Actively seek His instructions, as you wait for His direction. Then do everything He leads you to be a part of the Lord’s restoration on Earth.

    Today’s Verse: 2 Corinthians 13:11

    Finally, brothers, rejoice. Aim for restoration, comfort one another, agree with one another, live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you.

    Create in me a clean heart, O God,
        and renew a right spirit within me.
    11 Cast me not away from your presence,
        and take not your Holy Spirit from me.
    12 Restore to me the joy of your salvation,
        and uphold me with a willing spirit.
    13 Then I will teach transgressors your ways,
        and sinners will return to you.
    14 Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God,
        O God of my salvation,
        and my tongue will sing aloud of your righteousness.
