206 devotionals in Purpose & Calling
- Identity
Perfect in His Eyes
Are you being who God wants you to be, or who others think you should be? We don't need to impress God, He loves you just the way He made you. Once you belong to Him first, rejection isn't so scary.
- Identity
He Knew His Name
Jesus didn't know Zacchaeus by his labels, cheat, sinner, tax collector. He knew his heart. He knows us the same way. You are uniquely made in His image, loved, and most importantly, forgiven.
- Security
A Blueprint Especially Designed for You
There are no guarantees we'll get our hearts' desires, but Jesus Christ is a rock on which to stand secure. He has a perfect plan for each one of us, a blueprint especially designed for you.
- Identity
What Are You Reflecting?
The stuff we chase never reflected who we really are. What matters is who we reflect now, ourselves, our culture, or God's loving light. Who are you reflecting?
- Restoration
Always, Always Doing Us Good
You are not defined by your mistakes. God works all things together for good, our problems, hardships, addictions, and grief. He doesn't need goodness to do us good. He makes beauty from ashes.
- Freedom
No Condemnation
Your habits, good or bad, are not who you are. There is no condemnation for those in Christ. An heir inherits all that came before, in Christ we own freedom, it's our right and our God-given legacy.
- Calling
More Than Enough
Jesus doesn't need the sharpest tool in the shed. Two fish and five loaves, a shepherd's stick, whatever you've got, is more than enough. The Lord specializes in turning failures into successes.
- Humility
Reluctant Heroes
No hero in the Bible ever set out to be one. Mary, David, Abraham, they just did what was in front of them. Walk humbly with your God. That's the whole thing, isn't it?
- Trials
Fixing Our Eyes
Life can feel like shoveling sand with a pitchfork, one problem after another. But God works all things together for good. The only way out of the trenches of pain is through Him.
- Kingdom
Vagrant Faith
Standing apart means you never get to stand with someone. Christ offers a new lifestyle, the vagrant faith, having everything and owning nothing. That's something you can buy into, at no charge.
- Hardship
For My Good and His Glory
Why would God allow extended weakness and pressure? Paul learned it taught him to rely not on himself but on God. God is bigger than our failures and the enemy's efforts. It's for our good and His glory.
- Gifts
If You Want to Keep It
You have a gift to share, whether you know it or not. Sometimes it's a skill, sometimes it's just an ear to listen. If you want to keep it, you gotta share it. Look for one small way today.
- Courage
Not a Suggestion
God gave us a spirit not of fear, but of power, love, and self-control. Courage isn't something you work up on your own, it's your inheritance. Fear was never part of the package.
- Witness
The Only Bible They'll Read
If someone followed you around all day, would they find Jesus? Not church, not rules, not your favorite preacher, would your life lead them to Jesus? You might be the only Bible some people read.
- Purpose
To Live Is Christ
Are you living in Christ, or for the pleasures of the world? If Paul is right, even death is gain. What do we really have to lose?
