    1. Jesus is the kind Savior who will also love us when we are not loveable. We ask for forgiveness for doung and being wrong and He. ALWAYS can and will give His peace!
      Ask Him to forgive your sins and to be your Savior but remember we are not to remind ourselves ever of those sins. The one who does not want us to be friends with Jesus, the devil,wishes us to be condemned; to feel sad with self condemnation. THAT is not from Jesus! Conviction forgiveness and peace and love ARE from Jesus!
      Pray with me Cecile “Jesus, I know that I have done wrong. I do wrong (sin). Please forgive me and help me to know right from wrong;when my feelings tell me to sin.
      I love you Jesus and want to be in the family of Christians!
      In Jesus name I pray,amen.
      Now Cecile if you have a Bible read the books of John Romans Acts and Hebrews. If you do not have a Bible go to Our Daily Bread (odb.org) and look for these books.
      The Bible Gateway app on the computer is very good!
      In Him who saves us from our sinful life and teaches us how to have peace and be loving,

      1. I’m encourage by your message the devil didn’t want me to message you Anna to thank you for your words of encouragement. My first message I was getting ready to send went out so I’m sending another one just to let satin know he didn’t win. Continue in your walk with the Lord Jesus I truly enjoyed them was very encouraging to me in my with the Lord. I pray God peace continue to be with you. Blessings!

      2. So Awesome – to feel genuine concern for the next person is a kind of love planted by the Lord and it’s our duty to water that seed an to share our God givin Love with others … to strive to be like our savior is the goal. HALLEJUHA

    1. Everything we need to do is in the Bible, we need to put it heart and do it! The Lord Jesus has equipped us with a Helper, the Holy Spirit if one is saved. Everything that the Lord Jesus is, resides in you/us. We are a new creation in Him.

    1. Samuel, I rarely get this far into Our Daily Bread, but for some reason I was moved to read some of the replies. Your request hit me with its simplicity and heartfelt need. I have prayed that the Lord would meet the needs of your request in miraculous ways and in ways that you would never expect. We serve a God that is all powerful and is still in the business of working miracles for his children.

    2. Samuel I don’t know what your needs are .. I am not on this site usually, but Jesus knows your needs and I asked Him to provide for you. If you need to feel the presence of God just ask Him to reveal Himself to you and help you to feel His presence. He is faithful!

  1. I need to get back to jesus. I’m very grateful god doesn’t turn me away when I come back with my tail tucked between my legs saying how much I need Him in my life

  2. This story shows how God can use us wherever we are planted. We often look for other ways of being used by Him that we think are more suitable but never arriving. He will lead and guide us with His still small voice…just follow His call! In Jesus name. 🙂

  3. God’s word according to the bible is so true in all aspect of our lives.
    I was using a different devotional and recently added ODB. It has given me an expanded insight about what God is saying.
    I’m praying that God should make and keep me faithful to the very end. Amen!

  4. Yes , I want to enrich my knowledge of Jesus Christ. I.believe these teachings from Dennis is going to be a great help in my walk with the Lord. Keep up the good work Dennis.

  5. I have been using ODB devotional material for a number of years now. I am so amazed and grateful at how these notes are the very thing I need for each day. My life would be otherwise difficult, even impossible, as I look after my 43 year old daughter at home who is extremely disabled and her needs are constant and very demanding. But with the help of these notes and daily bible reading I truly know what Jesus means when he says “Come unto me all who are weary and heavy laden and I will give you rest. Take my yolk upon you and learn from me……….”. Thank you to all who work so hard to deliver these notes of encouragement and to all who give to support the work. It truly is ‘Daily Bread’.

  6. What would JESUS say to a lost world today? HE would tell them HE died for them on the cross, that HE wants them to be born again by believing HE is the Savior of any and all who put their trust in HIM because HE loves them and wants them to be with HIM forever.
