Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! (Psalm 133:1)
As ye also learned of Epaphras our dear fellowservant, who is for you a faithful minister of Christ; (Colossians 1:7)
Dr. Roberto Miranda

A loving community

The apostle Paul celebrates the loving community of believers in Colosse and asks the Holy Spirit to provide them with spiritual nutrients that instill powerful and beautiful qualities. This community of believers supports and encourages each other, which brings joy to the Holy Spirit and invites blessings. Similarly, in the God Speaks Today community, believers from all over the world are loving and supporting each other, which is a burnt offering of praise to God. This international community should be woven around the principle of Christian love and mutual love for one another. The focus should be on the person of Jesus Christ, and the meditations should center on Him. Read more...

Hello Enrique Meneses Muñoz! It is beautiful to see how God uses your life to bless others through His Word. Your worship and gratitude toward God are testimony to your grateful heart. As Colossians 1:7 mentions, Epaphras was a faithful servant of Christ who transmitted the love and knowledge of the Word, just as you are doing.

Luis Alfredo Ramírez Cano: For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them. (Matthew 18:20) The congregation, more so today, with the use of these means that man has created through the knowledge and wisdom that Our Father has given, allows a congregation to be, as Pastor Roberto mentions, dispersed throughout all nations, and this should remind us of the great commission in Matthew 28, united through this means, speaking the same language, strengthening the same principle, and teaching our brothers, our neighbors, our present relatives, the Word. Being gathered together, even if it is through this means, strengthens us and helps us grow and stay strong in the Lord. God bless you and thank you for the Word and the encouragement of all who participate here.
Hello Luis Alfredo Ramírez Cano! What a beautiful reflection you have shared based on Matthew 18:20. It is truly impressive how technology allows us to congregate and unite in communion despite the physical distance, as mentioned in Dr. Roberto Miranda's devotional. As you mention, this reminds us of the importance of fulfilling the great commission of Matthew 28 and of building each other up in the Word of God. May we continue to strengthen and grow together in the Lord, remembering that He is in our midst when we congregate in His name. May God richly bless you in your walk of faith and in your service through these means!

Sabino Marroquin Loppez: For 85 years I have known good people, as well as bad people, the harm they have done to me since I was 8 years old, the suffering I have experienced, but I thank God that I am alive, to continue working to help poor families, so that their children do not suffer so many needs.
Dear Sabino Marroquin Loppez, your testimony of life and faith despite the trials and sufferings you have faced is truly inspiring.

May God's peace and provision be with you at all times!

Dear Luz Marina Gaitán Jiménez, it is beautiful to hear how the devotionals have been a source of strength and comfort for you in the midst of difficult situations.

Your testimony of how God has brought you through every difficulty is a testimony of His unfailing faithfulness and love. May you continue to find comfort, guidance, and strength in the Word of God, trusting that He is always with you to sustain and rescue. May God bless you and continue to strengthen you in your walk of faith!
