Daily Success Audio Devotional
Daily devotionals for Scripture meditation
Overview
The daily messages included in this series were developed to help you establish the discipline, as well as experience the rewards, of meditating on God’s Word day and night. They are not meant to take the place of your own personal meditation but are intended to accompany the verses/commands that you will be meditating on each week.
The entire commentary covers 49 general commands that Christ gave during His earthly ministry. A 7-day commentary on each command is presented in the series. These messages also are intended to give you a broader understanding of each command, whereby enabling you to more effectively carry out your part in the Great Commission given by Jesus Christ: “All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations . . . Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen” (Matthew 28:18–20).
