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!

Yesterday's Devotional

The role of trials

Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.

James 1:2-3

Often, we feel scared, weakened, and even lost, without understanding the purpose of trials in life. But it's precisely in these moments that our faith must rise, leaning on the greatness of the Lord Jesus, who supports us through all trials.

Trials, among many meanings, have an educational role in the lives of Christians. They teach us to depend solely and exclusively on our Heavenly Father. They also help us see how great God is, how fragile we are, and how much we need to change. These experiences of faith point upward and to inner struggles we face in real-life situations, as in a real test of our sincerity and love for God.

Persevering through trials:

  • Rejoice in God. It may seem difficult, but your joy will strengthen you in the battles.
  • Overcoming trials produces perseverance. Stand firm and do not be discouraged!
  • Read and internalize the Word of God, make it your daily sustenance.
  • Pray, ask for Christ's help in trials. The Lord is with you always!
  • Your faith will be confirmed if it is rooted in the Lord Jesus. Trust with all your heart.

Let's Pray:

Lord our God, please help me remain steadfast in the midst of life's trials . Though many challenges may be difficult, Father, let them not shake my faith and hope, but instead, strengthen them in Christ. May Your name be glorified in my life, today and always. Amen.

Day Before Yesterday's Devotional

He does infinitely more!

"Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, 21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen."
Ephesians 3:20-21

Even if we think of something big for our lives, God has an even bigger plan! Even according to His Word, what we ask for is still little compared to what He has already prepared for us. So don't worry about what you want to receive, because God already knows what we want and has prepared something greater than what we dream of.

Now, to have access to what God has prepared for us, we need to obey and submit to Him. When we put His Kingdom first, he blesses us in every area of our lives.

He already knows what we need and dream of, so don't worry about how to achieve your dreams, think first about how to serve God in the best way and all the other things will be supplied by Him.

Being surprised by God

  • Change your focus, put your expectations on God and not on earthly things. That way, we are focusing on what really matters, and when we least expect it, we are surprised by Him.
  • Allow God to be part of your dreams and plans. He wants to be with you at every moment of your life.

Pray:

Lord God, I know that my plans are small compared to what you have prepared for me. I want to experience Your blessings, I want to serve You and focus on expanding Your Kingdom. For I know that all other things will be provided for by You. In Jesus' name, amen!

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.
