  • The Shroud – October 13, 2026

    https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20261013dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion On this mountain he will destroy the shroud that enfolds all peoples, the sheet that covers all nations. Isaiah 25:7 The Shroud For thousands of years, people have used a shroud to bury their dead. A shroud is a type of cloth that covers the body. There are practical reasons for using a shroud. Wrapping a body in one helps stabilize it, making it easier to carry. A shrouded body is more sanitary to handle. Most important, however, is that the shroud is a way by which family members could give the body of their loved one a level of dignity and respect. From time immemorial, therefore, the shroud has been a symbol for death. In paintings, literature, poetry, and song, artists have used the word “shroud” to describe things that are dark, foreboding, tragic, inevitable. But then along comes the Lord Almighty, through the prophet Isaiah. He sees our world—the world our sin has ruined. He sees our world of decay, our world of disease, our world of injury and broken bones and violence and accidents and natural disasters and old age and decline and death. He sees it all. Then he makes a stunning promise. He promises to destroy the shroud. He promises to ensure that the shroud of death does not have the final word. Seven centuries after Isaiah’s words, God himself came to this earth in the person of Jesus Christ. He came to destroy the power of death. To do so, he lived a sinless life on our behalf. Then he took the cause of death—our sin—and paid for it on the cross. Then he died. After his death, loving hands covered his body in a shroud and placed it in a tomb. But the cross, the tomb, and the shroud did not have the final word. Three days later, the tomb was empty, and so was the shroud. And so let the world around us continue to speak of the finality of the shroud, the casket, and the cremation urn. You and I know better. Jesus lives. And in him, we will too. Prayer: Lord Jesus, you are the death of death. Praise be to your holy name. Amen.   Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

Military Devotions

  • Military Devotion – Honored to Wear It – October 9, 2026

    Watch the Devotion Based on Romans 1:16,17 Honored to Wear It  I’m going to apologize in advance. If I see you in a restaurant or at the store or out in our community or at an airport and you’re wearing your uniform, I will probably stop and talk to you.  Not because it’s my job, but because I care very deeply for those who serve in our nation’s military. And your uniform says something about you. It’s going to tell me which branch you serve; your rank insignia will tell me whether you’re enlisted or officer and maybe how long you’ve been serving. The patches on your arm will tell me a little bit about your MOS or your rate, your job in in the military. Your uniform says something about you.  The apostle Paul talks about this when he writes, “I am not ashamed of the gospel” (Romans 1:16). The gospel is the good news about Jesus. Paul is not ashamed of that good news about Jesus. He wears it like a uniform. Anybody that came into contact with the apostle Paul knew that he was a Christian because of the way he carried himself, the way he answered questions, the way he forgave people, the way he loved them, the way he was so selfless; he wasn’t so much concerned about what people thought about him but that people knew about Jesus.  When you put on your uniform and go to work, you work alongside people in a religiously pluralistic environment. There are people that work alongside you who come from all sorts of different faiths and beliefs, even people who say they don’t believe anything about God. Sometimes this can make sharing your faith a little uncomfortable. Senior NCO and officers have shared with me that this is hard for them to do because they don’t want to project that their faith is the faith of their command or unit.They have to be very careful about that. There are war fighters who have shared that they are a little bit shy about sharing the gospel because they want to fit in with those around them.   Paul says, “I am unashamed. I am honored to wear the gospel as a uniform.” Why? He goes on to say, “I’m not ashamed of the gospel because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes” (Romans 1:16). Paul wanted everyone to know that he wore the uniform of the gospel so that other people might know Jesus.   When you wear the gospel as your uniform people will know that you are a Christian. They will know it because of the way you talk to people, the way that you are service-minded and not self-centered, the way that you forgive and are patient and loving. Wearing that uniform builds bridges with people. As you build those bridges, God is going to open doors so that you can build a bridge to Jesus. Jesus is what they need.  Paul goes on to say in the very next verse that this righteousness that they need to know is not a righteousness of their own. They are righteous before God, not because of things that they have done, but because of what Jesus has done for them. Behonored to wear that righteousness which God has given you, for righteous is what he has declared you to be in Christ Jesus.    Be honored to wear the uniform of the gospel, that good news of Jesus, so that others may wear this uniform, too.    Prayer: Jesus, you have called us to serve others and to live as your people wherever you place us. Give our military members courage to be unashamed of your gospel. Help them reflect your love in the way they speak, serve, forgive, and care for those around them. When they work alongside people of different beliefs or no faith at all, give them wisdom and humility. Let their lives point others to you without fear or embarrassment. May their uniforms identify whom they serve in this world, while their words and actions show whom they serve eternally. Amen.  Written and recorded by Rev. Paul Horn, WELS National Civilian Chaplain to the Military, San Diego, California.
