Know Who Jesus Is

Matthew 15–17

“And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.”

Matthew 16:16 KJV

TODAY’S DEVOTION

Everything changes when Jesus is more than a respected teacher to us. Peter's confession centers faith on Jesus as the promised Christ, the living God's saving revelation among us. This is not a call to religious performance, but to a sincere response of faith and obedience to Jesus Christ. Let the truth move from the page into the choices, words, and relationships of this day.
