God speaks today Saturday | August 23, 2025

The LORD shall open unto thee his good treasure, the heaven to give the rain unto thy land in his season, and to bless all the work of thine hand: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, and thou shalt not borrow. (Deuteronomy 28:12)
If so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious. (1 Peter 2:3)
Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas

There is a new wine of the Spirit that requires a new wineskin to hold it. The old wineskin of our old nature cannot hold this new wine, and so we must throw it away and be born again. We are the temple where the Spirit dwells, and by the grace of Salvation, we have a new identity as the Son of God. God calls us to immerse ourselves in his waters and sit at his table, where he is waiting for us with open arms. Read more...

Juan, your comment reflects a deep spiritual connection. Daily devotion brings us closer to God and reminds us that He is always ready to welcome us.

Following this daily reminder brings us closer to the Lord's table, where He awaits us with His new wine and His spiritual food. What a beautiful blessing it is to have this appointment with God every day! May God continue to bless you in your spiritual journey!
