My God shot is Titus 3:5. "Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost." My prayer is that I would always know that I didn't change myself but that God has done a great work in me (and continues to) to continually sanctify me.
Tara Leigh is right. I’ve read this verse but never stopped to consider it. I ran by it quickly in the greeting. “In hope of eternal life,which God, who never lies, promised before the ages began…”. Wow! That just says it all, doesn’t it!
Cultural change comes from personal humility, self-control, wise instruction through the church (this includes TBR), and the washing by the Holy Spirit with the Gospel in our hearts. I need to trust God that when I follow Him, “in love and good works,” He is capable of cultural transformation by advancing His kingdom.
We often look to James as the book that preaches good works for believers is evidence of salvation, but Titus is as well. Paul mentions good works at least 6 times in this short book. It shows God places high value on us living lives as people "zealous for good works" (2:14). 👍🏾
"That we haven't always known it all as we currently do, right?" - I love the humor in this recap. Thank you Tara-Leigh. 😂 May God bless everyone reading his word today!
”But avoid foolish controversies and genealogies and arguments and quarrels about the law, because these are unprofitable and useless.“ Titus 3:9 NIV I was guilty of this. My husband would say, “You’re on your soapbox again!” Or I would engage in political arguments on social media. Self pride, thinking that my insignificant comments would really make a difference!!? Now, to look at it from God’s perspective, shows me how very foolish I had been. Now, I know that He is in charge of it ALL! The war in Israel is the latest social media tinder box. We should not take a side against each other, but instead, do exactly what Paul is writing about right here! Pray for our faithful brothers & sisters in Christ, on either side, that are caught up in that terrible, worldly, evil driven war! Isn’t it amazing how nothing changes? Isn’t it glorious that a God who is consistently good is our Father!!? Rejoice! Rejoice! For He will return!
Wow - "which God, who never lies, promised" (1:2) Jackie Hill Perry states, since God cannot sin, He cannot sin against us, and that makes Him the most trustworthy Being in the universe. Amen.
Some of the instructions Paul gives Titus are similar to what he told Timothy in yesterday's reading, like being submissive to authority and qualifications for elders. Two passages were my God shot. 1.) Titus 2:11-14 says, "For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation for all people, training us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in the present age, waiting for our blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, who gave himself for us to redeem us from all lawlessness and to purify for himself a people for his own possession who are zealous for good works." 2.) Titus 3:4-7 says, "But when the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior appeared, he saved us, not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit, whom he poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior, so that being justified by his grace we might become heirs according to the hope of eternal life." Yes and Amen. Praise God for doing His work in me and all who believe!
Set the example. Pray to set a good example. Acknowledge those who set a good example. Listen to Holy Spirit as He leads individually to transform and be the example of Jesus living, growing, and seeking the will of the Father. Engage culture by portraying how Jesus would live.
My God shot is found in the introduction of Titus: We are told God, who does not lie, promised before the beginning of time, eternal life. God knew what would be needed for me to have eternal life with Him, my Creator, to worship and honor Him…the sacrifice of His Son. Amen!
Usually, you read the verses by yourself and then watch the daily video recapping/ explaining what the chapters were on. There aren’t videos with Tara-Leigh Cobbel reading the chapters that I know of.
I caught that verse myself but it started in verse 1 for the sake of the faith of God's elect and their knowledge of the truth which accords with godliness That's me I thought. I better underline and highlight that. That I've never caught before.
Isn’t it amazing how the Holy Spirit opens our spiritual eyes at a verse we may have read previously a dozen times it more??!! I love this comment, bc I’ve had the Holy Spirit awaken my mind to different aspects of God many times, in this process of His washing and regeneration through the Word. Hallelujah Hallelujah!! Amen. He’s where the Joy Is!!
Praise the MIGHTY LIVING GOD

I noticed that verse today for the first time, also. It does say it all!
Great reminder! 🙋🏻♀️
Good morning Bible family ❤❤ Almost there 🎉 enjoying the journey ❤ Have a blessed day in His Presence He's where the Joy is ❤❤❤

Sometimes a reputation is well deserved. The fact is, God is in the business of changing lives.
”But avoid foolish controversies and genealogies and arguments and quarrels about the law, because these are unprofitable and useless.“

I have been seeing so much of this amongst believers lately. It’s sad to see.
Amen

Amen Tara-Leigh Cobble! Preach Sister!
To rebuke, " "To reprimand; strongly warn; restrain." It's easy, but to do it with humility is very difficult.
Set the example. Pray to set a good example. Acknowledge those who set a good example. Listen to Holy Spirit as He leads individually to transform and be the example of Jesus living, growing, and seeking the will of the Father. Engage culture by portraying how Jesus would live.
These books were written to US, not THEM! The WE, not they THEY!
So glad He has instructed US!

Hey Bible Readers!😅
The Trinity in Titus 3:4-7

Thank you
Have you downloaded the UVersion Bible App with audio? It has the daily readings wirh audio
@@DebbieMartin-pc6vb no I haven't. I'm not very tech savvy. Thank you
I found an app that reads the verses. I follow along that way I’m engaging 2 of my senses and that makes the words stay in your brain better
@@kimbright4935 I guess I will keep looking. I had hoped that was what this was. I'm not very techy.
I caught that verse myself but it started in verse 1 for the sake of the faith of God's elect and their knowledge of the truth which accords with godliness
That's me I thought. I better underline and highlight that. That I've never caught before.

Learn to discern if YOU are
a superficial church.

What happened to II Timothy?
It will be a few days from now. Not all letters were written back to back. There was time between them. This is a chronological study.
Hi, I'm new here. Was there a video reading the verses that I missed or was I suppose to do that myself? 😊
I sent you instructions above your comment.
@@angieallen134thank you. I'm looking for a sight that reads the bible. 😊
The Bible app will read aloud
On the upper right of the Biblical text, there’s a sound icon that reads the Bible to you.
I use the Life Bible app to read and listen to the Bible and the Bible Recap
