Daily Devotionals

Much has changed from the old to the new covenant, including the way God deals with us. Before Jesus, God dealt with the people based on their deeds; now, He deals with us according to Jesus’ deeds and our faith in them.

Jesus told this parable to illustrate what happens when we listen to the religious leaders and philosophers of the world, who are blind to God’s truths. Without God’s Word to give us true spiritual vision and illuminate our spiritual walk, we’ll stumble along and eventually fall.

We don’t have to be limited by what the world says is impossible. Our faith in God’s ability to

work miracles helps us to see the spiritual realities the world can’t see. In Him, there are no boundaries.

God wants us to experience such deep joy and happiness in Him that there are no words to describe it. When we make a request through prayer in the name of His Son, He promises to grant that request. This is true for the big things in life as well as the little things, because there’s nothing in our lives too little or insignificant for God to care about.

As believers, we must remember that whatever line of work God calls us to is our way of serving Him. He provides the talent, the ability, and the motivation to get the job done. To others, work is simply a job, but we can accomplish the task He sets before us with joy.

God has blessed us with intellect as well as speech, and we can use these gifts to either bless or curse ourselves and others. Studying the Scriptures, we see that there’s a clear connection between what we think and what we say. If we think something long enough, we’ll speak that thought.
