January 9
Introduction
Paul uses the images of darkness and light to contrast a former way of life with new life as God’s people. People who belong to the light are encouraged to live in a way that pleases God.
Scripture Reading
Ephesians 5:1-20
Today’s Key Verse: Ephesians 5:2
Your life must be controlled by love, just as Christ loved us and gave his life for us as a sweet-smelling offering and sacrifice that pleases God.
Reflect
What are your reactions or thoughts to what Paul says in these verses? Is there anything that you find particularly hard to do? If so, why? What does becoming one of the “Lord’s people” (verse 8) mean to you? What is your understanding of what it means to “live like people who belong to the light” (verse 8)?
Pray
Almighty God, I want to live in the light and walk in the pathway of goodness, righteousness, and truth. Thank you for leading me out of darkness, teaching me how to live in a pleasing way, and reflecting your love. Amen.
Tomorrow’s Reading
Ephesians 5:21-33: The apostle Paul discusses the relationship between wives and husbands.
