  • Telling It Like It Is – March 19, 2026

    https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260319dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion Then they turned again to the blind man, “What have you to say about [Jesus]? It was your eyes he opened.” The man replied, “He is a prophet.” . . . To this they replied, “You were steeped in sin at birth; how dare you lecture us!” And they threw him out. John 9:17,34 Telling It Like It Is The Pharisees were not wrong when they said to the blind man we meet in John chapter nine that he was “steeped in sin at birth.” They were simply telling it like it is. The Bible is clear on this point. What King David confessed about himself is most certainly true about all of us: “Surely, I was sinful at birth, sinful from the time my mother conceived me” (Psalm 51:5). This man was no different. He was indeed “steeped in sin at birth.” The problem with the Pharisees’ assertion, however, is that they were likely not willing to make the same confession about themselves. Like Jesus’ own disciples, these haughty religious leaders assumed that this man had been born blind because of some terrible sin his parents had committed in the past or some sin God foresaw in the blind man’s future. Surely, they thought, this kind of serious birth defect signaled some sort of divine punishment for wrongdoing! But the wrongdoing revealed in these verses was committed by the Pharisees, not the blind man. And the blindness on display is not the physical sort; it’s spiritual. And it’s alarming. It’s not as if Jesus never showed the Pharisees that he was the long-promised Messiah, the very Son of God. He proved it over and over again. But their seething hatred for Jesus and his Word—yes, for the gospel itself—prevented them from acknowledging the truth. It prompted them to fight against it and to fall further under God’s judgment into spiritual blindness. It was left to the formerly blind man to tell it like it is. When they asked him who he believed Jesus was, he answered plainly, “He is a prophet,” one who faithfully proclaims the very Word of God; one who tells it like it is. And what message does Jesus have for sinners like you and me? Two words: “You’re forgiven.” Prayer: Dear Jesus, give me the strength to hear your Word and follow you always.

  • Military Devotion – Welcomed Light – March 13, 2026

    Watch the Devotion Based on Isaiah 42:16 Welcomed Light I have a love—hate relationship with light. Some mornings, when that sunlight blasts through the shades of my bedroom window, I’m just not having it. I know the day’s work schedule, the difficult conversations that need to be had, and that light exposes my unwillingness to face the day. On the other hand, I love the light. My travels take me to places around the country where the skies are cloudy and gloomy every single day I’m there! Then I fly home to Southern California – and I admit, we’re a bit spoiled here – and the sunshine is a welcomed light. This is true for our spiritual life. Light is unwelcomed intruder, like a drill instructor rolling through the barracks exposing contraband, the things that are not supposed to be there. The light of God’s law, what he demands from us as his people, exposed the things that are not supposed to be in our hearts. We are to love him with all our heart, soul and mind. We are to use our bodies to his glory. We are to love our neighbor, whomever they may be, to act and speak with attitudes that best serve them… ouch. Just saying those words is like light that exposes the unwanted attitudes in my heart. How about you? In the darkness of our sin, we do not see clearly how we are to love God and love our neighbor, or why we love God and neighbor. That’s where light of God’s gospel is a welcomed light. Listen as God speaks through the prophet Isaiah: “I will lead the blind by ways they have not known, along unfamiliar paths I will guide them; I will turn the darkness into light before them and make the rough places smooth. These are the things I will do; I will not forsake them” (Isaiah 42:16). Do you see the light? God promises you that he will not forsake you, that is, he will not leave you in the dark, leave you to your sins. Instead, he shines his light and illuminates the path that leads to forgiveness, to Christ, who is your light. Earlier in the chapter the LORD looked ahead to the promised Messiah and said of him, “I will keep you and will make you to be a covenant for the people and a light for the Gentiles” (Isaiah 42:6). Jesus is your light. When you find yourself stumbling around in the darkness of your guilt over your lack of love for God and neighbor, look for the light of Christ. He is right here in these words of promise. Go to church! He will not cast you out because of darkness in your heart. Instead, he will shine his light of forgiveness upon you. Create a battle plan to read about God’s light for you this week by doing a bible search for the word “light”. Read as many of them as possible this week and soak in those promises. Let God’s light be a welcomed light in your heart. Prayer: O Lord Jesus Christ, by your almighty power you opened the eyes of the blind and showed yourself to them. Turn our eyes away from worthless things and lead us to love you sincerely. We entrust to your care all who are deployed. Guide the members of our military to carry out their vocations safely. Enable them to return home to their families and friends unharmed. Continue to bless the training of our United States Armed Forces to bring justice, establish peace and bring aid to those affected by disaster. In your name we pray. Amen.
