Today's Devotional

Don’t count on tomorrow, live today!

Do not boast about tomorrow,
for you do not know what a day may bring.
- Proverbs 27:1

“Tomorrow I will do this or that…” This is a false assumption we all make: taking tomorrow for granted. But the truth is that the future whether near or far, is something we do not control. Believe it: you are incapable of knowing whether tomorrow will even exist! We can make plans, organize schedules, arrange simple tasks or big projects, but the one who determines whether these things will happen is God.

This does not mean that we should not plan, have organized goals, or envision future projects. But it requires humility and faith from us so that we trust the Lord of time. “If God wills,” He will fulfill everything according to His sovereign will.

Today is a gift from God to all of us. Therefore, make the most of it, doing everything as if it were for the Lord. Smile, love, work, rest, serve, forgive, seek forgiveness… Whatever comes to your hand to do today, do it! Because tomorrow does not belong to us; we do not know if we will have that time.

Enjoy God’s gift: today!

  • Enjoy the gift of life by being your best and doing your best today.
  • Pray and entrust your future projects and dreams to the Lord.
  • Do not put off until tomorrow what you can do today.
  • Make a list of things you would like to do, learn, or have by the end of your life. Start today and take a step toward making those dreams a reality.
  • Read James chapter 4. Write down the principles you learn from that passage.
  • Include in your phrases: “If God wills,” I will do this or that… (James 4:15)
  • Live the present with Jesus, and have hope for the future, always trusting that God will do what is best according to His perfect purpose.

To Pray:

Lord God, help me to trust in You and surrender all my life and my plans to You. Teach me to live today with love, dedication, and faithfulness, for this is the day You have made for me to live fully. Tomorrow belongs to You, Father. May I not become anxious or presumptuous about the future, but may I rest and trust that You are the Lord of time, sovereign over all things. If You allow it, I will live tomorrow and in You I will be able to accomplish my dreams. And may everything be for Your glory and praise. In Jesus’ name, Amen!

Yesterday's Devotional

You are God’s house!

Yes, the Bible affirms that we, His people, are the dwelling place of the Most High God! What a wonderful privilege! Reflect on this:

Don’t you know that you yourselves are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in your midst?
- 1 Corinthians 3:16

God does not dwell in temples made by human hands. Although we are imperfect, He chose to live within us. That is, all His children, redeemed by Jesus Christ, are no longer merely visited by God, but inhabited by Him. This means you are never alone. God is with you, inside you!

It is true that we are a work under continuous construction. We need Christ to shine His light within us, make the necessary changes, clean every area and every hidden corner. In short, He works to make our lives a pleasant home for Him to dwell in.

Become a beautiful sanctuary dedicated to God!

  • Let God feel at home in your life. Seek His holiness daily.
  • God is not a stranger visiting your house, do not push Him away from your life.
  • Pray and allow God to remove all hidden “trash” and to organize the mess within you.
  • Give God full authority in this house, give Him the throne of your heart.
  • Only the work of the Spirit of God can bring true and lasting transformation, the kind you truly need.

To Pray:

Lord my God, thank You for choosing to dwell among Your people. Help me to be a good home for You. I know You know my imperfections and that You are working on each of them. Remove all the debris of the past, clean me! Make me consecrated to You. Shine Your light within me and feel completely at home in every area of my life! You are my Lord. Govern and guide my entire being, in Christ’s name. Amen!

Day Before Yesterday's Devotional

You have been so good to me, Lord!

You have been good to your servant,
Lord, according to your word.
Teach me good judgment and knowledge,
for I believe in your commandments.
Before I was afflicted, I went astray,
but now I keep your word.
You are good and you do good;
teach me your decrees.
- Psalm 119:65–68

God’s goodness has no limits. He shows His grace even though we are not deserving of His favor. When we face difficulties as a consequence of our failures, He teaches us with love. Through His Word, He shows us how we should live. His faithfulness goes beyond the heavens; that is why we need Christ to learn more about God’s character and to imitate Him.

In this Psalm, the goodness of God, which brings blessing, is contrasted with human disobedience and pride, which lead to humiliation. But when we become aware of our errors and recognize the need to be truly faithful, God treats us with kindness.

Through meditation on the Scriptures, the Holy Spirit convicts us of our errors and helps us change our mindset and attitude so that, with wisdom, we may obey the Word of the Lord.

Recognize God’s Goodness

  • Pray and thank God for His goodness and faithfulness toward you.
  • Ask God to teach you His Word and transform your heart so you can leave behind what is wrong and remain faithful.
  • Keep God’s teachings in your mind and heart so that you will not sin against Him.
  • Remember: by the Lord’s GRACE and MERCY, you receive blessings you do not deserve and you are spared the punishment you did deserve.

Prayer:

Loving Father, thank You so much! I have no words to express my gratitude for all Your goodness! I did not deserve it, yet You grant me immeasurable blessings, Lord! I thank You, for in so many ways You take care of my life and of those I love. Thank You for bringing me back into Your presence, where there is light, renewal, and truth. I acknowledge that I am flawed, God, and that I need to grow. I need Your help to live according to Your will, Jesus. Transform me according to Your Word! In Jesus’ name I pray, grateful. 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!
