Jeeva, Joy and Deva - Verse of the Day - English and Tamil

For His anger is but for a moment, His favor is for life; Weeping may endure for a night, But joy comes in the morning. Psalm 30:5. This verse highlights two key contrasts: God's anger versus His favor and weeping versus joy. It emphasizes the difference between God’s momentary anger and His enduring favor. While God may discipline us, His anger is brief, but His favor lasts a lifetime. Similarly, weeping in the night represents a time of sorrow and hardship, but the morning represents joy. This joy isn’t just relief—it’s a "joyful shout," symbolizing deep praise after enduring struggles. The verse reminds us that pain and suffering are temporary. God's faithfulness ensures that even after the hardest nights, joy will come in the morning and remain with us throughout our lives if we follow Him faithfully and trust in Him. Are you trusting in God's faithfulness to bring joy after your struggles and hardships?   Isaiah 54:7 says: “For a mere moment I have forsaken

To You, O my Strength, I will sing praises; For God is my defense, My God of mercy. Psalm 59:17. This is a powerful promise of strength and protection. In this verse, the act of singing reflects the psalmist's desire to honor and glorify God for His faithfulness and goodness. This psalm is a prayer for deliverance and protection, where King David cries out to God for help while being pursued by enemies seeking to destroy him. In the midst of his distress, David acknowledges God as his strength, stronghold, and fortress, expressing confidence in God’s ability to rescue him from his enemies. By this verse, God reminds us to sing and praise Him in all our situations. Will you sing and praise God, trusting in Him as your strength and protector in all situations? Psalm 28:7 says: “The LORD is my strength and my shield; My heart trusted in Him, and I am helped; Therefore my heart greatly rejoices, And with my song I will praise Him.” என் பெலனே, உம்மைக் கீர்த்தனம்பண்ணுவேன்; தேவன் எனக்கு

Why are you cast down, O my soul? And why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God; For I shall yet praise Him, The help of my countenance and my God. Psalm 43:5. King David often speaks to his soul, encouraging himself to have hope in God and to glorify Him. In this verse, his praise quickly turns to sorrow and then to hope. He knew from past experiences that God would always be available when he needed Him. Aware of God's faithfulness, David speaks to himself, preparing his soul to trust in God. Similarly, the prophet Elijah experienced sorrow when he fled to Horeb to escape Jezebel's wrath (1 Kings 19:1–8). Even Jesus experienced trouble in His soul as He approached the time of His crucifixion (John 12:27–28). Yet, David refused to let his inner struggle win. He told his soul to hope in God and to remain confident that his sorrow would turn to praise. Like David, we should strive to overcome the troubles of this world. Do you speak to your soul and encourage yourself to tru

Let Your mercy, O Lord, be upon us, Just as we hope in You. Psalm 33:22. King David emphasizes the importance of trusting in God's unfailing love and mercy. His prayer expresses a deep longing for God's grace and mercy to help in times of need. One of God's attributes is His mercy, and those who have faith in His promises invite His compassion. The psalmist shows how hope and prayer are intertwined with seeking God's mercy. It celebrates God's sovereignty and righteousness, reminding us to trust Him during difficult times. We should place our hope in Jesus, knowing that seeking God's promises through prayer and worship will lead to victory in our lives. Do you place your hope in Jesus and trust in God's unfailing love and mercy during difficult times? Luke 1:50 says: “And His mercy is on those who fear Him From generation to generation.” கர்த்தாவே, நாங்கள் உம்மை நம்பியிருக்கிறபடியே உமது கிருபை எங்கள்மேல் இருப்பதாக. சங்கீதம் 33:22. தேவனின் மாறாத அன்பு மற்று

Give unto the Lord the glory due to His name; Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness. Psalm 29:2. This verse is a powerful statement that speaks to the themes of worship, giving glory to God, and the beauty of holiness. King David describes the nature of worship and the attributes of God. The word "glory" refers to the honor, praise, and recognition that is due to God. As followers of God, we are called to recognize and acknowledge His glory and to give it to Him as an act of worship. This theme of giving glory to God is echoed throughout the Bible. The beauty of holiness suggests that worship is not just an outward expression but a reflection of an inward state of purity and devotion. It calls us to approach God with a heart that is set apart and dedicated to Him. Do you worship God with a heart that is set apart and devoted to Him in the beauty of holiness? Psalm 96:9 says: “Oh, worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness! Tremble before Him, all the earth.” கர்த்தருட

He who has a generous eye will be blessed, for he gives of his bread to the poor. Proverbs 22:9. The person with "a generous eye" looks on the poor with compassion and responds with kindness. A sincere or good eye represents someone who is generous, imitating God's generosity toward others, while a bad eye symbolizes a self-centered person who takes instead of gives, neglecting the needs of others. In the parable of the Good Samaritan, a priest and a Levite saw a man who had been robbed, beaten, and left half dead, but they passed by on the other side of the road. These two men lacked "good eyes." The Good Samaritan, on the other hand, looked at the wounded man with compassion, went to him, and tended to his wounds. He did even more by transporting the victim to an inn and providing for all his care. This is the attitude of true compassion paired with action. Jesus calls us to be like Him, generously helping those in need. Do you have a generous eye, responding

A wise man is strong, Yes, a man of knowledge increases strength. Proverbs 24:5. King Solomon recognized the power of wisdom and how a person of knowledge increases in strength. In Proverbs 2:6 , he says, "For the LORD gives wisdom; from His mouth come knowledge and understanding." Our God is the ultimate source of wisdom. To become truly wise and strong, we must stay connected to God. When we spend time in His presence daily, meditating on His Word, we grow wiser and gain the knowledge needed to be strong in the Lord. A truly wise person does not rely on their own strength to overcome temptation or triumph over trials. Instead, they trust in the Lord for strength. Folly makes one weak and vulnerable, but walking in relationship with God equips us with wisdom and strength. Do you rely on God's wisdom and strength, or do you trust your abilities to face challenges? Ecclesiastes 7:19 says: "Wisdom strengthens the wise More than ten rulers of the city." ஞானமுள்

Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others. Philippians 2:4. The apostle Paul encouraged the Philippians to live in unity, love, and humility, putting others first. He taught them not to be selfish or try to impress others, but to humbly consider others as more important. This means actively looking for ways to help and care for one another, fulfilling the law of Christ by bearing each other's burdens. While humans naturally prioritize their own needs, Jesus set the perfect example of selfless love. When we care for others' needs above our own, we become a blessing and can transform the world for Christ. Do you put the needs of others before your own, following Christ’s example of selfless love? Romans 12:10 say: "Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honor giving preference to one another." அவனவன் தனக்கானவைகளையல்ல, பிறருக்கானவைகளையும் நோக்குவானாக. பிலிப்பியர் 2:4. ஒற்றுமையோடும் அன்போடும் மனத

The Lord shall preserve you from all evil; He shall preserve your soul. Psalm 121:7. This verse is a promise from God to protect us and our soul from all kinds of evil—such as danger, disease, violence, and natural disasters. It encourages us to trust in God's power to shield us from harm and care for our soul. The soul represents the core of a person's being, embodying their spiritual identity, emotions, will, and eternal connection with God. God’s promise to preserve our soul shows His ongoing commitment to our spiritual well-being. This verse reflects the psalmist's deep trust in God's ability to protect His people, both physically and spiritually.  It also reassures us of His constant care as our Rock, Refuge, Shield, and Fortress. Do you trust in God's promise to protect your soul and shield you from harm? Psalm 34:22 says: “The LORD redeems the soul of His servants, And none of those who trust in Him shall be condemned.” கர்த்தர் உன்னை எல்லாத் தீங்குக்கும் வ

I know that You can do everything, and that no purpose of Yours can be withheld from You. Job 42:2. This is a promise of God for us today. Job declared this timeless truth when he said that God can do everything. Our God is Almighty! He is our Sovereign God, in control of everything. God is always with us, and He is aware of everything that happens to us. While God does not cause difficulties, He does allow them. No purpose of God can be withheld from Him, and no one can stop the blessings He has stored for His children. However, when we go through life's problems, we often forget what God has already done for us. When things are delayed or not happening on time, we may lose faith in God. Yet our faithful God does everything beautifully in His time when we put our trust in Him and wait for His timing. We must believe that our God is all-powerful and that He will do great things. Do you believe that nothing is impossible for our God?  Matthew 19:26 says: “With men this is impossibl

For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus. Galatians 3:26. It is the mercy of God that has marked us as children of God through faith in Christ. Romans 8:14 says, "For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God." Through faith in Christ, we receive forgiveness for our sins and full adoption, becoming sons and daughters of God. See what kind of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God, and so we are. Our privileged position in Christ is based solely on God's grace, not our worth or merit. While we were still sinners, Christ died for us, giving all who believe in Him the right to become sons of God. Do you recognize the mercy of God that allows you to be called a child of God through faith in Christ? John 1:12 says: "But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name." நீங்களெல்லாரும் கிறிஸ்து இயேசுவைப்பற்றும் விசுவாசத்தினால் தேவனுடைய புத

For I will not trust in my bow, nor shall my sword save me. But You have saved us from our enemies, and have put to shame those who hated us. Psalm 44:6,7. In these verses, the psalmist reminds us where our true strength lies. It's easy to rely on our own abilities, resources, or strategies when facing challenges. The 'bow' and 'sword' represent human efforts—things we often turn to for security or success. However, the psalmist declares that victory doesn’t come from these but from God alone. This passage challenges us to shift our trust from ourselves to God. When we face battles, whether physical, emotional, or spiritual, it’s not our strength that secures the victory but God’s power working on our behalf. Just as He delivered His people from Egypt, God is faithful in fighting for us and bringing us out through our life’s struggles. Not only that, but our God is also capable of putting our enemies and those who hate us to shame. When we realize our bow and sword

As the deer pants for the water brooks, so pants my soul for You, O God. Psalm 42:1. This verse beautifully expresses the deep longing of a soul that thirsts for God. Just as a deer urgently seeks water to quench its thirst and sustain its life, our soul, too, craves the presence of God to be spiritually nourished and refreshed. The psalmist compares his desperation for God to the natural, life-sustaining thirst of a deer. He reminds us that only God can satisfy the deepest needs of our hearts. When we experience spiritual dryness and hardships or feel distant from God, we are reminded to come to Him, the source of living water. Nothing else in this world can truly fulfill us or give us lasting peace. As we draw near to God, He fills us with His love, grace, and presence.  Do you thirst for God and seek His living water to satisfy your soul?  Matthew 5:6 says: "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, For they shall be filled." மானானது நீரோடைகளை வாஞ்சித்து
