Strength for Today: Daily Readings for a Deeper Faith
Overview
Draw Strength for Today from your time with God! Combining Scripture, reflections, and in–depth exposition from one of today’s best–loved Bible teachers, John MacArthur’s daily devotional gives you a firmer grasp of great passages from God’s Word, encourages you to apply them to your life, and helps you journey through each day of the year with wisdom, grace, integrity, and joy.
What a wonderful opportunity you have as a Christian in this modern age to open up the Bible and, with the leading of the Holy Spirit, glean its rich truths for yourself. Your vitality as a Christian depends on doing just that. For only through consistent Bible study and prayer do you gain the spiritual strength to navigate each day with wisdom, grace, and integrity.
Offering significantly more than the typical thematic or topical anecdotes of some other devotionals, the in-depth Bible exposition of this daily study gives you a firmer grasp on many of the great passages of Scripture--passages that speak at length of Christian character, the meaning behind Christ's death and resurrection, and how we benefit from life's trials.
After a year in God's Word with this book as your companion, you will find that both your walk with Christ and your faith have grown stronger--all because you committed yourself to a daily, in-depth study of the Scriptures, and to learning more about the God who is your Strength.
Wait! You could get a better deal by purchasing this resource in the MacArthur LifeWorks Library 2.0.

Top Highlights
“How does mercy compare with grace? Mercy has respect to man’s wretched, miserable condition; grace has respect to man’s guilt, which has caused that condition. God gives us mercy to change our condition; He gives us grace to change our position. While grace takes us from guilt to acquittal, mercy takes us from misery to glory.” (source)
“Doctrine and duty are inseparably linked; duty always flows out of doctrine. Right living is based on right principles.” (source)
“Without knowledge, we are defenseless and vulnerable. Knowing God’s truth—by study and by application—enables us to say no to sin and yes to righteousness. Anyone who puts his faith in Jesus Christ but who does not keep God’s Word constantly at the forefront of his mind will find himself entrapped in sin again and again.” (source)
“There is no single characteristic of unredeemed man more obvious than his pride. And there is nothing more characteristically evident of a redeemed person than his humility.” (source)
“If you are truly a Christian, you will also revere God in your devotional life and obediently persevere in His will daily. You will rejoice and be aware of God in every detail of life.” (source)
