Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for July 18, 2026

Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla — July 18, 2026. "Until I Went into the Sanctuary of God" opens Psalm 73:16-18 (ESV) with the turning point of the entire psalm — not a better argument, not harder thinking, but a single phrase that changes everything: until I went into the sanctuary of God. In this Lutheran daily devotional, Pastor Balla explores how the psalmist's fog lifted not through isolated reasoning but through going to where God had promised to be found — among His gathered people, under His Word — and how that same promise holds for you today in the Word read and preached, the water of Baptism, and the bread and wine where Jesus gives His true body and blood to ordinary people through ordinary means. When your own reasoning runs out and doubt won't budge, the answer isn't to think harder alone — it's to go where Jesus promised to meet you. He's still there, still giving Himself away. This Bible devotion speaks directly to anyone stuck in wearisome, circling doubt. Perfect for morning devotion, personal prayer, or daily Bible study.
