Daily Bible Study with Pastor Mark

But to Israel he says: “All day long I have stretched out My hands To a disobedient and contrary people.”

So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

“And how shall they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace, Who bring glad tidings of good things!””

How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?

“For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.””

that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.

But indeed, O man, who are you to reply against God? Will the thing formed say to him who formed it, “Why have you made me like this?”

For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?

What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?

And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.

Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.

For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.

For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father.”

But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.

There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.

O wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death? I thank God—through Jesus Christ our Lord!

For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh) nothing good dwells; for to will is present with me, but how to perform what is good I do not find.

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace.

Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts.

Likewise you also, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

knowing this, that our old man was crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves of sin. For he who has died has been freed from sin.
