TODAY’S BRIEFING

VANTAGE POINT DEVOTIONAL

  • Sunday, August 30

    The White House Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) and the Departments of Health and Human Services (HHS) and Housing and Urban Development (HUD) announced the “Treatment First” toolkit this month to address homelessness and addiction.

    HUD stated that the resource “provides communities with practical and proven strategies to help Americans transition from homelessness and addiction to recovery and self-sufficiency.” The strategy prioritizes coordinated and accountability-driven engagement in evidence-based treatment and recovery support services.

    “Under President Trump’s leadership, we will not abandon those in treatment and recovery from drug addiction because every American is worth fighting for,” said ONDCP Director Sara Carter. “This toolkit will present new, evidence-based solutions that offer hope and healing to Americans struggling with drug addiction and homelessness.”

    As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…

    • For wisdom for the president and members of the administration in their efforts to address homelessness and addiction.
    • For President Trump to seek the Lord’s guidance in his actions and decisions.
    • For Director Carter and Secretaries Kennedy and Turner as they collaborate on the strategy to help those struggling with addiction.

PRESIDENT’S SCHEDULE

    If you return to the Almighty you will be built up. – Job 22:23

    As people come to know the Lord, it can be tempting to only think in terms of “if” and “then.” There are many times in the Bible that you read the word “if.” A quick online search says that little word occurs 1,673 times in the English Standard Version, and other versions or translations are similar. That little word can be both a challenge and a puzzle. It may elicit what psychologists call conditional reasoning because it does not stand alone. Generally, when an “if” references a real problem, ”then” will also be true. But is this always the case? Can a relationship with God be so easily defined by a formula? Is God a puzzle to be solved?

    In the passage that precedes today’s verse in Job 22, Job’s friends make a lot of statements about God that sound good at first glance. However, they are actually misunderstandings of God hidden behind half-truths and cliché ideas. Similar to modern platitudes you might hear in church or on social media, these idioms come without context or a real understanding of the dynamic, living relationship we each have with Almighty God.

    Job had not strayed from the Lord, making the call for him to return misplaced. Job’s suffering was for the greater purposes of God, not as a result of sin. While good does come from receiving instruction from the Lord and hiding His words in your heart, it does not prevent every heartache or adversity. Sometimes, you will face trials and tribulations along the way as God works out His good and eternal purposes for your good.

    As long as you are alive, you are under construction, being continually reshaped and built up spiritually by the Lord. The thing for you to do is remain close to Him. Have faith that, as you walk in nearness with Him, no matter what happens, God is at work, He is with you, and He is good.

    Today’s Verse: Job 22:23

    If you return to the Almighty you will be built up;
        if you remove injustice far from your tents,

    11 in God I trust; I shall not be afraid.
        What can man do to me?
    12 I must perform my vows to you, O God;
        I will render thank offerings to you.
    13 For you have delivered my soul from death,
        yes, my feet from falling,
    that I may walk before God
        in the light of life.
