Bible Verse for Today
“You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot” (Matthew 5:13).
Jesus called us the salt of the world because He knew the benefits of salt.
It imparts flavor to food and is also used for preservation. We are in Christ and made salt of the world to sweeten and preserve it. People have always been in bitterness; sorrows weigh them down.
Therefore, we as the salt of the world must look into these lives and impact them; we must let them enjoy the full benefits of Jesus. By doing so, we have sweetened their lives and preserved their soul.

Salt can lose its taste, too, and when we sin, we tend to lose our taste. When we are not at peace with people, we can also lose our taste for them. And we must follow Jesus wholeheartedly to preserve the world and not lose our taste for it.
So, in whatever you do today, be at peace with people and follow Jesus wholeheartedly; then, you will not lose your salt.
You will be the reason why everyone is happy, and you will always be number one at your place of work or school.
Prayer for Today
You made us salt of the world, Lord; we should sweeten and preserve it. When salt loses its taste, it becomes invaluable. Lord, I don’t want to lose my taste; I want to impact this world, sweeten it, and preserve it by your power that works in me. I can’t do this on my own; please do it.
Today, Lord, let me be salt to every bitter situation. Amen.
