  • Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for July 21, 2025
    2025/07/21

    Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for July 21, 2025. Today’s reflection, “O Lord, Rebuke Me Not,” is drawn from Psalm 6:1–3, a powerful cry for mercy amid suffering and sorrow. In this penitential psalm, David pleads for God’s discipline to come not in wrath, but in grace. We hear the aching of a weary soul — “my bones are troubled… my soul is greatly troubled” — yet it is a soul that still turns to God and dares to ask, “How long, O Lord?”


    This devotion offers comfort to all who feel the weight of sin, illness, or silence from heaven. You are not abandoned. In Christ, God’s wrath is satisfied, and His discipline becomes restoration. Bring your groaning to the Lord, for He hears and heals.

    Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for July 20, 2025. Today’s devotion, “Their Throat Is an Open Grave,”reflects on Psalm 5:9–12, where David contrasts the corrupt speech of the wicked with the joyful refuge of the righteous. Describing the deep depravity of sin, David laments the flattering lies and destructive counsel of those who rebel against God — words so empty they are likened to “an open grave.”


    Yet the psalm doesn’t end in judgment. It lifts our eyes to the joy of those who take refuge in the Lord. While the deceitful fall, the righteous — those who trust in God’s mercy — rejoice, sing, and dwell under His shield of favor.


    Through Christ, the grave is emptied and replaced with protection, peace, and everlasting joy.

    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.

    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.
