BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Psalm 18-19; Acts 20:17-38
FIRE SCRIPTURE: 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18

Topic: Avoid Strife [Andrew Wommack Devotional 17 July 2019]
Luke 12:58 ‘When thou goest with thine adversary to the magistrate, as thou art in the way, give diligence that thou mayest be delivered from him; lest he hale thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and the officer cast thee into prison.’
Luke 12:56-59
Jesus had just spoken about relationships before He gave this parable of delivering ourselves from the judge. The warning is clear that we should do everything within our power to avoid strife (Rom. 12:18). However, the consequences of failing to settle the differences are more than just physical prison or punishment.
Strife can produce spiritual and emotional prisons. James 3:16 says, ‘where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.’ Depressions, fears, loneliness, bitterness, sicknesses, financial problems, and many other things can become prisons from which we will not be delivered until we reconcile.
Topic: Jesus to the Rescue [Billy Graham Devotional 17 July 2019]
God is our refuge and strength, a tested help in times of trouble. — Psalm 46:1 (TLB)
Scripture tells us that God tempts no one. Temptation always comes from the devil. God will test us and allow us to endure the temptation, but the devil does the tempting.
Topic: Make Hell Tremble [Kenneth Copeland Devotional 17 July 2019]
For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. – 1 John 3:8
Is the devil giving you fits today? Is he causing trouble for you at every turn?
If so, turn the table on him. Start making him miserable for a change. You have the power to do it, you know. You have the power residing in you to destroy his works, to heal, to deliver, to set the captives free. You have so much power in you that every time your alarm clock goes off, the devil should wail, “Oh no! That troublemaker is up again!”
