Daily Devotional

Verse of the Day
Joshua 4:24 (KJV): “That all the people of the earth might know the hand of the Lord, that it is mighty: that ye might fear the Lord your God for ever.”


Devotional
Israel had just crossed the Jordan River on dry ground. Twelve stones were taken from the river and set up as a memorial, so that future generations would ask, “What mean ye by these stones?” God explains why He did this in this verse: so that all the earth would know His mighty hand, and His people would live in holy fear before Him. The miracle was not just for that moment, it was a witness for all time.

In Christ, God has worked a greater crossing for us. By His death and Resurrection, He has brought us from death to life, from slavery to sin into the freedom of the children of God. The Cross and the empty tomb are our “stones of remembrance.” When we are tempted to doubt, to fear, or to grow careless in sin, we look again at what God has done in Christ and remember that His hand is mighty and His mercy is everlasting.

Let the fear of the Lord in this verse be not a terror that drives you away, but a holy reverence that draws you near in love, obedience, and trust.


Reflect
Lord, let me never forget what You have done for me in Christ; teach me to walk today in reverent fear and thankful confidence in Your mighty hand.

Why We Exist

RisenCause exists to worship the Living God and proclaim Jesus Christ, risen from the dead. Our first work is to share the Gospel, strengthen believers in daily faith, and invite seekers to turn to Christ.

We create reverent designs and simple resources that spark real conversation and point hearts to Scripture and the life of the Church. A portion of every purchase supports care for abused children, help for persecuted Christians and their families, and building funds for local parishes.

Christ is risen. May our work and our words bear witness to Him.
