Daily Dose of Hope January 7, 2026 Scripture: Galatians 3 Prayer: Lord Jesus, We belong to you! How often we forget that. We become selfish and consumed with the things of this world. We don't spend enough time with you and so we drift. Lord, please forgive us. Help us not to be self-consumed and disobedient. We want to know you more. In fact, we yearn for your presence in our lives. How we need you! Jesus, as we enter into our devotional time, we ask for you to speak to us in a new way today. We yearn to hear your voice. In Your Name, Amen. Welcome back to the Daily Dose of Hope, the devotional and podcast the goes along with the daily Bible reading plan at New Hope Church in Brandon, Florida. We have started on a journey through the letters of Paul. We are starting with what scholars believe is Paul's very first pastoral letter to his churches – Galatians. Today, we are walking through Galatians 3. We've talked about how Paul is expressing disappointment that the Galatians have so quickly believed the false teaching that one must become a Jew before they become a Christ-follower. The Galatians, swayed by Jewish Christians, have begun to drift away from the Gospel that Paul preached to them. Paul was clear – we are saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ alone. Adding elements of the law, such as circumcision, is simply wrong. The Gospel of Jesus needs nothing added to it or subtracted from it. To do so is to corrupt the Gospel. In today's passage, Paul speaks of the law being our guardian until Jesus arrived. The promise was given to Abraham but the people needed more boundaries so God gave them the law through Moses. But with Jesus, we can be justified by faith. Paul is pointing out that we no longer live "under the law" but are "in Christ" despite our inability to keep the law. We are no longer condemned by God because of our sin. Rather, because we now live in Christ, God is our father. Because of the forgiveness and salvation that we have in Christ, we don't have to approach God with fear of punishment, but rather we know that God loves us. We are his sons and daughters and we have the privileges that children have with their father. This isn't because of anything we've done but because of what Jesus Christ has done for us. In verse 27, Paul writes that those who have been baptized into Christ are now clothed in Jesus. What does that mean? Well, baptism is a visible sign of the union we have with Jesus. Our salvation is NOT dependent on baptism (remember Paul is making a point that salvation is by faith alone and nothing else). But baptism is an outward and visible sign of what Christ has done within us. Through the inward faith in Christ, we are now sons and daughters of God. Belief in Jesus is the great equalizer. As sons and daughters of God, we not only belong to God but we also belong to one another. Thus, we are brothers and sisters and there is no distinction of race, rank, or sex. Paul says that whether we are Greek, Jew, male, female, slave, or free, we are all one in Jesus. You could add any variable to this list. We are equal in the eyes of Jesus and thus, we should be equal in the eyes of one another. Over thousands of years, this is a doctrine that has been twisted and or ignored. Forgive us, Lord. We are all equal and we belong to one another. Period. Blessings, Pastor Vicki
"What does Abraham have to do with justification by faith—and with the salvation of the nations?In Galatians 3:6–9, Paul turns from the Galatians' experience of the Spirit to an even more foundational authority: the testimony of Scripture itself. After showing that the Triune God bore witness to justification by faith (Christ crucified, the Father giving the Spirit, the Spirit working powerfully), Paul demonstrates that this gospel is not new. It is the consistent message of God from the beginning—already preached in the Abrahamic promises.Paul begins where Moses begins: “Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness” (Genesis 15:6). Abraham was not justified by works, lineage, or law-keeping. He received righteousness as a gift—counted to him by faith. And from that truth Paul draws a decisive conclusion: those who are “of faith” are the true sons of Abraham.That would have landed with force in Galatia. The Judaizers boasted in physical descent and circumcision, but Paul says sonship is determined by faith, not flesh. Believing Gentiles are not second-class citizens in God's kingdom; they are the very fulfillment of what Scripture promised all along.Paul then goes further: Scripture foresaw that God would justify the Gentiles by faith and preached the gospel beforehand to Abraham—“In you shall all the nations be blessed.” This promise is not an obscure detail. It is the backbone of the Abrahamic narrative and God's answer to the curse that fell upon the nations. The blessing promised to the nations is inseparable from justification, because blessing and curse correspond to justification and condemnation.The result is Paul's climactic statement: “So then, those who are of faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.” We are living in the days Moses longed to see—the worldwide blessing promised to Abraham, fulfilled in Christ, and received by faith alone.The question for every hearer is therefore simple and searching: Are you a true son or daughter of Abraham? Are you walking in the footsteps of Abraham's faith—resting in the righteousness God gives freely in Christ?If you found this sermon helpful, consider subscribing and sharing.For more teaching through Galatians and the doctrine of justification by faith alone, explore the channel's sermon playlist.#Galatians #JustificationByFaith #Abraham #Gospel #ReformedTheology #SolaFide #BibleTeaching #ChristianSermon #NewTestament #BiblicalTheology #CovenantTheology #JesusChrist #GraceAlone #ScriptureAlone #ProtestantReformation"

"How do we know that justification is truly by faith alone?Paul's answer in Galatians 3 is striking: the Holy Spirit Himself bears witness to it.In this sermon, we examine Paul's argument in Galatians 3:1–6 and see how the doctrine of justification by faith is confirmed by the testimony of the Triune God. Paul does not appeal first to church authority or human reasoning, but to what God Himself has done—through Christ crucified, the giving of the Spirit, suffering for the gospel, and even signs and wonders.Paul reminds the Galatians that Christ was proclaimed to them as crucified through the preaching of the Word, and that the Spirit was given to them not by works of the law, but by the hearing of faith. The same Spirit who began the Christian life must also be the one who perfects it. To turn back to works is not progress—it is regression.This passage also teaches us how justification and sanctification are inseparably connected. Having begun by the Spirit, we are not perfected by the flesh. Growth in holiness comes through faith, union with Christ, and diligent use of the means of grace—not through self-reliant striving.Paul's argument reaches its climax by pointing to the Spirit's miraculous work among the Galatians as God's own confirmation of the gospel they received. To reject justification by faith is therefore not merely to reject a doctrine, but to resist the testimony of God Himself.This sermon calls us to hear the witness of the Father who gives the Spirit, the Son who was crucified for sinners, and the Spirit who confirms the truth of the gospel—so that we might stand firm in justification by faith alone."

As we listen to Paul present this beautiful defense of Christ and His gospel, it will be very important to remember that sometimes a false doctrine can be presented with great confidence and emotion, but that doesn't make it right.
At Christmas we celebrate the wondrous birth of Christ, but less noted is the divine timing of His arrival on Earth. Jesus was born at the perfect moment, fulfilling God's plan to adopt us into His family. In Galatians, the Apostle Paul encouraged his readers to cast off the law and live fully as God's heirs, reflecting the generous fruit of their freedom and inheritance. It's an apt reminder for us today, particularly at Christmas, to know that God has given us the gift of everlasting salvation through Christ. Join Horizon at the Equipping Services for CHRISTMAS HEIRS, a verse-by-verse study of Galatians.
When God redeems us through Christ, He adopts us into His family.

Big Idea: You share the promises of Abraham through faith in his Son.Galatians 3:14-16The purpose was that the blessing of Abraham would come to the Gentiles by Christ Jesus, so that we could receive the promised Spirit through faith. Brothers and sisters, I'm using a human illustration. No one sets aside or makes additions to a validated human will. Now the promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. He does not say “and to seeds,” as though referring to many, but referring to one, and to your seed, who is Christ.I. The blessings of Abraham are yours through faith.Galatians 3:14II. The family treasure is yours through adoption. Galatians 3:15III. Covenant promises are yours through Christ. Galatians 3:16Next Steps: Believe: Today, I offer my soul to Jesus.Become: I will put my relationship with Jesus first this holiday season.Be Sent: I will share God's love in Christ this Christmas.Discussion Questions: If you were the child of the world's richest man, what would you ask for this Christmas? How would Christmas feel if you were an orphan?How can you keep your family close even if you live far apart during Christmas?How does being part of the family of Abraham strengthen your faith?What's one practical step you can take to deepen your faith this Christmas?How can you show God's love to someone far from Jesus this season?Thank God for His gifts to you today.
