Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for July 6, 2025. Today’s meditation on Psalm 2:1–3, titled “Nations Rage Against God’s Plan,” explores humanity’s tragic and futile rebellion against the Lord and His Anointed. The psalmist exposes the vain plots of rulers and nations who see God’s gracious rule as bondage to be broken. Yet no human scheme can overthrow Christ, the true King, whose reign is secure and eternal. Even in the face of violent opposition, God’s plan of salvation stands unshaken, fulfilled perfectly through Jesus’ death and resurrection. As believers, we find true freedom in God’s loving cords — His Word, forgiveness, and grace.

Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for July 5, 2025. Today’s meditation on Psalm 1:4–6, titled “The Wicked Shall Not Stand,” contrasts the fate of the righteous and the wicked. While those rooted in God’s Word flourish like a fruitful tree, the wicked are like chaff blown away by the wind, with no foundation or endurance before God’s judgment. Scripture warns that those who reject the Lord cannot stand among the righteous, for their path leads to destruction. Yet God knows the way of the righteous — those redeemed by Christ, rooted in His grace, and preserved by His mercy. Find encouragement to hold firm to Christ, whose saving work secures your place in God’s congregation forever.
