Devotion 4/17, Talk To The Lord This Morning!
God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love, and of self-discipline.
2 Timothy 1:7
Philip Ware-“Power! We like that concept. Power! But if it is to be godly, power alone does not make us right. Godly power must be accompanied by love and self-discipline. These three together make a person’s life effective, constructive, and godly. Live life to its fullest: not as a closet Christian afraid of standing true and firm, but as a disciple who lives by God’s power, shares God’s love, and displays God’s virtues through a disciplined life of love, grace and power.”
Holy Father, you are without compare in your majesty and might. I have no right to come into your presence, and yet you have invited me here by your love and your grace. You are my Rock, my Fortress, and my Strength. I depend upon you for guidance and mercy to sustain me through my storms in life and reclaim me from my stumbles. Holy God, I want to be strong in you, to be like you in my love, and to reflect your character through my self-discipline and graciousness. I ask for this balanced grace in my life to be more like Jesus, in whose name I pray. Amen. https://youtu.be/neQgu5hBOVQ?si=TfInHdpYm6EkMY1a
