Home Altar for September 27, 2026

Reflect: If God’s Word of Law and Gospel is from heaven and not man, then we should live it and believe it!

Share: The Gospel isn't a human idea. It came from heaven, and that makes it the most reliable thing there is.

Practice: Ask yourself this week: am I treating God's Word as from heaven or handling it like a human idea?

Pray: Lord, Your Word is from heaven. Forgive me for treating it like a human idea. Let it be certain to me. Amen.
