Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla

Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for July 18, 2025. Today’s meditation is titled “You Are Not a God Who Delights in Wickedness” based on Psalm 5:4–6. In these powerful verses, David confesses the holiness of God — a God who takes no pleasure in wickedness, deceit, or bloodshed. Unlike the world, which often tolerates or excuses sin, the Lord is pure, righteous, and just. We reflect on how pride, lies, and violence stand condemned before His throne — not as distant sins of others, but as realities that call each of us to repentance. Yet this sobering truth is not without hope. In Christ Jesus, God has dealt fully with sin, offering forgiveness and righteousness to all who believe. Let this devotion lead you into a deeper reverence for God’s holiness and a renewed trust in His mercy through Christ. 🙏 Like, share, and subscribe for daily Scripture encouragement. #Psalm5 #GodIsHoly #DailyDevotion #PastorBalla #ChristOurRighteousness #FearOfTheLord

Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for July 17, 2025. Today’s reflection, “Give Ear to My Words” from Psalm 5:1–3, teaches us the posture of faithful, honest prayer. David cries out with urgency and trust, not offering polished words but the groaning of a burdened heart. He calls on the Lord as “my King and my God”, acknowledging God’s sovereign rule over every part of life. David begins his day with prayer — laying out his requests like a morning sacrifice and watching with hope for God to act. His prayer is not a ritual but a living sacrifice, offered in expectation and trust. Through Jesus Christ, our perfect King and Intercessor, we too may come boldly to the throne of grace. Start your day with this devotion and be reminded that the Lord hears, considers, and answers. 🙏 Like, share, and subscribe to receive daily encouragement in God’s Word. #Psalm5 #DailyDevotion #PastorBalla #MorningPrayer #ChristOurKing #PrayerLife #TrustInGod

Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for July 16, 2025. Today’s reflection, “You Have Put Gladness in My Heart” from Psalm 4:6–8, draws our hearts toward the true source of lasting joy and peace. In a world that anxiously asks, “Who will show us some good?”, David turns not to possessions or prosperity but to the presence of the Lord. When God lifts the light of His face upon us, He gives a joy that surpasses abundance — a gladness deeper than any harvest of grain or overflow of wine. This joy is not earned, but given — placed in our hearts by the God who redeems and sustains us. In Christ, we find rest that the world cannot offer. Join us in this devotion and discover peace that allows you to sleep in safety, knowing you are held in the hands of your Savior. 🙏 Like, share, and subscribe! #Psalm4 #DailyDevotion #PastorBalla #JoyInChrist #PeaceInGod #ChristianRest #LCMS

Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for July 15, 2025. Today’s reflection, “Be Angry and Do Not Sin” from Psalm 4:4–5, speaks directly to our hearts in a world filled with tension and emotional unrest. David acknowledges the reality of anger — even righteous anger — but warns us not to be ruled by it. We are called to pause, ponder in silence, and respond with faith. In Christ, we are given a better way: holy restraint, genuine repentance, and trust in the Lord’s justice. This devotion unpacks how prayer, silence, and right worship flow from hearts made new by grace. Whether wrestling with anger, sorrow, or frustration, let the Word of God lead you into peace and renewed trust. In Jesus, our sacrifice and righteousness, we are free to lay down wrath and take up faith. 🙏 Please like, share, and subscribe to grow in Christ daily. #Psalm4 #DailyDevotion #ChristianAnger #PastorBalla #TrustInTheLord #LCMS #FaithNotFury

Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for July 14, 2025. Today’s reflection, “Answer When I Call” from Psalm 4:1–3, reminds us that prayer is not just ritual — it’s communion with the God who hears, loves, and acts. David cries, “Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness!” — not based on his merit, but on the Lord’s mercy. Though scorned and slandered, he holds fast to this truth: “The Lord has set apart the godly for Himself; the Lord hears when I call.” This devotion explores how faith clings to God’s promises even when surrounded by lies and shame. Christ is our righteousness, and in Him, we are heard, set apart, and never forsaken. Be encouraged today: your prayers do not fall into silence. The Lord hears. Call on Him with confidence! 🙏 Don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe for more Christ-centered devotions. #Psalm4 #DailyDevotion #GodHearsPrayer #PastorBalla #ChristOurRighteousness #LCMS #GraceAndPeace
