Come and Start Your Day with Christ. He Loves You
A daily devotional is one of the most powerful habits you can build because it keeps you spiritually grounded and it will help you start your day with Christ. Every single day brings new challenges, new decisions, and new pressures, but each time you start your day with God, the one who controls everything, you’re reminded that you’re not facing any of it alone, that He has your back. He said in His word, “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble” (Psalm 46:1 KJV), and that truth hits differently when you meditate on it consistently. He has and is still helping me, and He will help you too.
Devotionals will remind you to slow down, breathe, and hear God's voice always, so that even on a busy day or one of those days when everything doesn't seem to go your way. Life can get overwhelming pretty fast, and sometimes your mind tries to pull you in a thousand directions. But when you open the Scriptures, you’re reminded to “Trust in the LORD with all thine heart… and he shall direct thy paths” (Proverbs 3:5-6 KJV). That means that you don’t have to lean on your own strength or earthly knowledge, because God shows you where to go or how to do it when you give Him your attention.
Another reason daily devotionals matter is that they will help renew your strength when life drains you of everything you have. We move fast, we work hard, we face pressure — but the Scripture says, “They that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength... they shall run, and not be weary” (Isaiah 40:31, KJV). This isn't just another verse; that’s a promise. When you give God your time, He empowers you in all areas, including mentally, emotionally, spiritually, and even physically.
And maybe this is one of the most important things about daily devotionals: they remind you that you’re not in this journey called life on your own or by your own power; He loves you so much, there's this illustration I like: God created the game, i.e., the Earth, and He gave us the manual, i.e., the Bible, and He came down to show us how it's played, that is when Jesus came down to earth to die for our sins. See, God desires that we live a good and healthy life full of joy in Him; He so much loves you that He said that He will give up nations for you, as He said in His word in Isaiah 43:4 (KJV), "Since thou wast precious in my sight, thou hast been honourable, and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life". You don’t need to have everything figured out. You don’t need to be perfect. With Christ, you are strengthened daily. “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me" (Philippians 4:13 KJV). That verse becomes your mindset when you meditate on it regularly.
I pray that these devotions draw you closer to God because without Him, we are nothing; He's the bread and butter in our bread and butter. If you ever need prayer, encouragement, or spiritual guidance, feel free to reach out. May the Lord bless you and guide you every step of the way.
