Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla — June 28, 2026. "I Have Been as a Portent to Many" reflects on Psalm 71:7-8 (ESV), a powerful Christian devotional on standing out as a believer in a world that doesn't understand faith through suffering. In this Lutheran daily devotional, Pastor Balla explores how the psalmist's puzzling life of faith points directly to Christ — rejected, crucified, yet risen — and how our identity rests not in the opinions of others but in God's declaration that we belong to Him. This Bible devotion encourages anyone who has felt misunderstood for their faith, reminding us that God is our strong refuge and that praise flows not from easy circumstances but from knowing who God is and what He has done. Perfect for morning devotion, personal prayer, or daily Bible study. Subscribe for daily devotionals, confessional Lutheran teaching, and Scripture reflections grounded in God's Word.
