Be Like Salt of the Earth | Matthew 5:13 | Our Daily Bread Video Devotional

What does being “the salt of the earth” mean? Today adding salt makes something taste better, but in the first century, salt preserved things from decay. Our lives should look different from our neighbors. Watch today’s video and discover how you can be the good in this world.

Lord please take away this anger from me...take me back to the passion I had for you once and heal my heart help me to be strong in you🕊

Eternal God, let our conversation be always full of grace seasoned with salt, so that we may know how to answer everyone. May we live in such a way that others will thirst for You Lord. Help us to be more salty so that others will want to taste of Your flavor. In Jesus' name. Amen.

I had not thought of this Scripture in these terms but it makes a lot of sense. I learned quite a lot from this. Thanks for sharing this message from Christ.

My Mother has all kinds of degrees and certificates from various Ministries. In the past I have encouraged her to do something with those. There was much pushback from a few local men. Now after Daddy's death, and the new year, she finally did her first video. (She was camera shy, so you see me.) She is now prepping for her next video.

PRAISE GOD,
she is becoming the salt that I know that she can be.

Thnx Samer, as we watch the shenanigans going on in D.C. now we need to be salt. This old world is rotting on the vine. Praise God...He knows from ancient times the things that are not yet done (Isaiah). May we be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power.🙏📖🎶
