Read Our Daily Bread Devotional for Sunday 21st September 2025
Topic: Peace with God
Bible in a Year: Ecclesiastes 7-9; 2 Corinthians 13
Bible Verse: Since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Romans 5:1
Today’s Scripture: Romans 5:1-11
Insight: Paul begins Romans 5 with the word therefore. He highlights what he’s already said—“we have been justified through faith” (v. 1)—and then points to its practical implications. Those who’ve been justified by their faith in the promises of God through Jesus (see 4:13-25) can enjoy peace with God (5:1), endurance through suffering, growth in character, and the overwhelming love of God (vv. 3-5).
Peace with God is a gift we receive through faith in Christ and is just the beginning of our new life. It forms the foundation from which we can grow through suffering as we cling to the hope of future glory. It teaches us to live like Jesus lived, who offered His life out of love for others and provides the peace we need. By: Jed Ostoich
Our Daily Bread Devotional for Sunday 21st September 2025 Message
When I accompanied my friend to the salon on her birthday, we were delighted by the pampering we received. Soothing music and a personal attendant welcomed us to the tranquil, dimly lit spa. The whole experience was calm, quiet, and restful. I had to suppress a giggle, however, at a sign displayed on a table proclaiming, “This organic hair-care line gives you more than beautiful hair—it gives you peace of mind.”
We know hair products don’t bring lasting peace, yet we often settle for temporary relief when our world is stressful. In reality, true peace comes not from something but someone.
While encouraging the believers in Jesus in Rome, Paul reminded them, “Since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ” (Romans 5:1). Sin separates us from God, but Christ’s atoning sacrifice makes a way for us to have a relationship with Him (5:9-10). Jesus offers peace for today and peace for eternity (v. 1)—providing “access by faith into this grace,” “the hope of the glory of God” (v. 2), and hope despite earthly suffering (vv. 3-4). Peace with God is more than simply a feeling; it’s a gift we receive through faith in Jesus. Whether we feel close to God or not, His peace is available to us—at a salon or a hospital, in times of serenity and times of chaos. By: Karen Pimpo
Reflect & Pray
When are you tempted to seek a peaceful circumstance more than peace with God? How does the reminder of Jesus’ sacrifice allow you to rest in Him today?
Dear Jesus, thank You for providing peace through Your own sacrifice.
