Today's Devotional

Believe that God Does the Impossible

Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with God.
- Mark 10:27

This passage immediately follows the famous interaction between Jesus and the rich young man, a boy who wanted to know how to inherit eternal life. After Jesus demanded things of the boy that challenged his heart, the boy went away saddened, wanting the solution to be easier.

If he had stayed a little longer, he would have heard these words and left with some hope. Neither he nor we have earned our salvation, God has! Yes, The Lord has opened the way of salvation between Himself and us.

If God has done this, the impossible and unimaginable, imagine him tackling your daily problems! Nothing is impossible for the Lord, he just decides where and when he will work his miracles.

Seek the impossible

  • Knock and the door will be opened, ask and it will be given to you. Pray for what you need most!
  • Thank the Lord for everything he has already done in your life.
  • Realise that your faith can move mountains, just believe!

Pray:

Lord God, I thank you for opening the way between us, only you can do the impossible. Today I ask you to work in my life, I need your blessings and your help, come and meet me, Father! I ask this in the name of Jesus, amen!

Word of the Day: Find peace in all situations!

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:6-7

In the passage above Paul hands us advice on what we can do in every situation to find peace. His solution is through prayer and petition. when we do this we receive the peace of God, which we are told will guard our hearts.

Later in the same passage, we see a little more of the character of Paul and how his peace is manifested:

I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. 12 I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. 13 I can do all this through him who gives me strength.

Philippians 4:11-13

The Apostle Paul witnessed great miracles and had great success as a preacher, but he also suffered much pain, sadness, and persecution. Paul had many ups and downs, but he learned how to have peace and contentment in all circumstances.

He trusted in Jesus. When you trust in Jesus, you can find peace even in the most difficult times!

How are you feeling today? In all situations, pray and trust in God.

Word of the Day: Use the internet wisely

15 Be very careful, then, how you live - not as unwise but as wise,16 making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.
Ephesians 5:15-16

The internet is a powerful tool for sharing the message of Christ, but it also presents challenges. We should be wise when using it: avoiding harmful content, practicing discernment, using it to cultivate healthy relationships, and guarding our hearts.

If we don't control ourselves, we can end up wasting a lot of time that could be invested in our relationship with God or with others. In the Bible, we are called to use our time wisely, which we should also apply to internet use.

The beginning of wisdom is this: Get wisdom.
Though it cost all you have, get understanding.
Proverbs 4:7

Just because something appears on the internet doesn't mean it's good or true. Ask God for wisdom and discernment to know what builds you up and what does not. Guard your heart so that you remain pure before the Lord.

On the other hand, you can use the internet to spread the message of Jesus. It is a tool that can be a blessing to many people who have not heard of the Lord. Ask God how you can be a light and become a witness for Him online.

Read content that draws you closer to God and share it with your friends and family. Let the light of Christ shine through you.

In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
Matthew 5:16

What is the Daily Devotional

The Daily Devotional is a special moment of your day that you dedicate to having a precious time of intimacy with God. It is very simple to establish an exciting routine of discovery and spiritual growth. You will achieve this by setting aside a moment each day to draw near to the Lord. During the Devotional, you will read a Bible verse with a meditation on the text. Then, you will meditate on the teachings and how to apply them in your life. In the end, you can pray.

How to do your Daily Devotional

Here are some tips for making the most of reading the Bible message during the Daily Devotional:

  1. Set aside a moment and choose a specific place: your devotional time will be more beneficial if you set aside the hustle and bustle and invest in a pleasant time alone with God.

  3. Read the daily meditation: reflect and try to understand God's purpose for your life through the comments.
