ANGLICAN COMMUNION DAILY FOUNTAIN DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY. Daily Fountain 23rd June 2026. Topic: The Day of The Lord.
Read: Zephaniah 1:10-18
Many prophets in the Bible revealed the events concerning the Lord which they also referred to as the Day of Judgment. Through Zephaniah the prophet, God promised that He would search through Jerusalem and destroy the dishonest merchants; those who thought they had power and authority would become powerless and defenseless in the day of the Lord. The judgment of God would come upon those who cheat others to become rich and powerful.
It is obvious in the prophecy that there would be no hiding place in the Day of Judgment. Walled cities and highly protected camps and strong towers, shall fall. The warning given by God through Zephaniah was as strong and certain as the one given in the time of Noah before the flood (Gen. 6:1ff). God condemned the people of Judah for their overconfidence, believing that God cannot do such to His people.
Beloved, the day of the Lord is certain. God gives grace and hope to those who will turn to Him with a heart of humility and genuine repentance. Those who renounce their sinful acts and determine to walk with God in total obedience will surely escape the divine wrath. Accumulation of wealth by unjust means is an abomination in the sight of God and will attract eternal damnation on those who engage in it. As we look forward to the great day of the Lord, we must not take God for granted by ignoring His warnings. Be honest in your walk with Him and your relationship with men.
PRAYER POINT: Merciful and gracious God, grant me the grace to be ready for your coming Day!
