[Jesus continued,] "I tell you the truth, everyone who acknowledges me publicly here on earth, the Son of Man will also acknowledge in the presence of God's angels. But anyone who denies me here on earth will be denied before God's angels."

Luke 12:8-9 NLT

Key Thought​



Confessing Christ is crucial! Confessing Christ can be costly in human terms. Christians in generations before us were sometimes put to death for saying, "Jesus Christ is LORD" rather than calling some other ruler "Lord." Still today, many Christians are suffering terrible things and even dying for their faith. However, the significance of our confessing Christ is revealed most clearly by Jesus' own words. He promised that he would claim us — "acknowledge" us as his — before the angels and before the Father [1] if we "acknowledge" him now while we are here on earth!

[1] Matthew 10:32-33.

Today's Prayer​


O LORD, my Father in heaven, you are holy. I know that, just as I have acknowledged Christ as my LORD and called on his name in baptism, he will acknowledge me before you and the holy angels and will call my name as your child on the day he returns. Holy God, I gladly confess that Jesus Christ, your Son, is my Savior and my LORD. It is in his precious name that I am saved and that I pray. Amen.
