Today's Devotional

Boldness and Courage in God

For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline.

2 Timothy 1:7

Having boldness is not easy, but when we have the presence of God in our lives, we can be bold and confident in the face of challenges that arise before us. In God, we can find the courage necessary to confront the trials that arise, knowing that God is faithful and is always by our side.

If you are going through a difficult time, do not despair; trust in God and have the courage to move forward with faith. He will help you overcome everything that seemed insurmountable and give you the strength you need to conquer.

Believe, God is your protective shield, and nothing is impossible for Him!

Have faith and boldness

  • Seek God in prayer. Read the Bible to strengthen your faith and confidence in Him.
  • Remember that the Holy Spirit is within you, giving you the boldness necessary to face whatever problems arise.
  • Put your trust in God and not in circumstances, knowing that He can accomplish the impossible!

Let's Pray:

Lord, give me strength and boldness to put your Word into practice. I know that you make the impossible happen, and I want to see your wonders happen in my life. Stretch my faith! In Jesus' name, Amen.

Yesterday's Devotional

God is the strength of your heart!

"My flesh and my heart may fail,
but God is the strength of my heart
and my portion forever."

Psalm 73:26

By accepting our limitations, we recognize everything God has done for us. When we understand that everything comes from the Lord, we realize how much he cares.

Recognizing our weakness is not an excuse for sinning, but a reason to pursue God even more. When we don't recognize God's power, we have this false impression that we conquer all things with the strength of our two arms, when everything we receive is through the Father's grace.

God's grace gave the inheritance of Salvation and no amount of effort could repay the price paid on the cross. The strength of our arm is limited, but the strength that comes from God propels us to accomplish great things!

With God, we do more!

  • Recognize your limitations, and respect yourself. Understand that everything good comes from God.

  • Seek strength in the Word of God. It is effective in cooling our souls and invigorating our strength.

  • Don't feel weak, your strength comes from God. Seek the source, pray.

Pray:

Lord, you are my strength. When I feel weak, your Word invigorates me. I am grateful to You, because I know that Your hand has sustained me. Thank you Father, amen!

Day Before Yesterday's Devotional

Obedience resulting from love

This is what love for God consists of: obeying his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome.

1 John 5:3

How challenging it can be for parents of a newborn to tend to all the needs and demands of their little one! For those who haven't experienced parenthood yet, they might envision the array of tasks: from waking up in the dead of night to changing diapers, breastfeeding, bathing, bottle-feeding, preparing baby food, lulling them to sleep, soothing colic with massages, offering comfort, and so much more... and doing it all over and over again. But certainly, following this journey is not burdensome for parents. It is a tiring challenge, but it is totally rewarding and exciting. And why? Because they love their little baby...

Likewise, if we love God, His commandments aren't burdensome to us. Following them isn't stressful because of our love for the Lord. Jesus once told His disciples that they would be His friends if they did what He commanded (John 15:14). Obedience is the primary proof that we love the Lord. When we fulfill His commandments, we reveal that we truly love Him. The most wonderful thing is that this obedience does not harm us. On the contrary, it is beneficial for us and yields peace and comfort in our hearts.

Love and obey God more!

  • Pray to God and thank Him for the lightness and grace of His commandments.
  • Reflect for a moment: Do you love God? Have you been obeying His commandments?
  • Before you obey, you need to understand and have faith. Make it a habit to read and listen to sermons from the Holy Bible every day.
  • Ask God to help you learn and obey His commandments.
  • Instead of just hearing, try doing what God says. It's all about loving Jesus and loving others.
  • Has something been weighing you down? Read Matthew 11:25–30. Share your burden with Jesus. Share God's love with those around you.

Let’s Pray:

My gracious God, I'm grateful that You don't overwhelm us with burdens beyond our capacity. Instead, Your commandments are straightforward and genuine. Guide me to follow them daily, openly, and confidently. I'm thankful because You loved me first and showed me how to love sincerely and faithfully. May my love for You, God, shine through in everything I do, in my faith, and in how I obey Your teachings. 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.
  2. Read the verse or Bible passage attentively: develop a lifestyle committed to the Word of God every day and avoid distractions.
  3. Read the daily meditation: reflect and try to understand God's purpose for your life through the comments.
  4. Practical application: jot down your findings and don't forget to put into practice everything you have learned through the Bible.
  5. Share what you learned: try to share with people around what God has been teaching you in your moments of daily devotion as you go about your daily conversations and interactions.

Don't forget the importance of living a life fully committed to the Word of God!
