Devotional: Moses' story reminds us that God takes our obedience seriously. Even as He was preparing to use Moses mightily, God confronted him about an area of compromise in his life. Are there areas in your life where you've been compromising God's commands? Today, reflect on any "small" disobediences you've been justifying. Remember, God's love for us is perfect, but it's also holy. He desires our full obedience not to restrict us, but to bless us and use us effectively. Pray for the courage to confront these areas and the strength to align your life fully with God's will.

Devotional: Moses tried to lead in his own strength at 40, but God had a 40-year preparation plan for him in the wilderness. Often, we try to force doors open or make things happen in our timing. Today's passage reminds us that God has appointed times for everything. Reflect on situations where you may be trying to rush ahead of God's timing. Are there areas where you need to trust His process more? Remember, what looks like a delay to us might be God's perfect preparation. Ask for patience to wait on His timing and wisdom to recognize the seasons He's placed you in.

Devotional: The pastor in the sermon shared his journey of doubt and eventual assurance of salvation. Many believers go through seasons of questioning their faith. Today's reading emphasizes the simplicity and power of confessing Jesus as Lord and believing in His resurrection. If you've been struggling with doubt, take time today to verbally confess your faith in Christ. Remember, our salvation is not based on our feelings or performance, but on Christ's finished work. Thank God for the gift of salvation and the assurance we can have through faith in Jesus.

Devotional: The transcription emphasized the importance of fully surrendering to Christ, letting go of compromises and distractions. Today's passage challenges us to take up our cross daily and follow Jesus. What does "taking up your cross" look like in your life right now? Are there things you're holding onto that are hindering your walk with Christ? Reflect on areas where you need to die to self – maybe it's a habit, a relationship, or a source of pride. Ask God for the grace to surrender these areas fully to Him, trusting that His plans for you are better than anything you could hold onto.

Devotional: The pastor shared how God provided for every step of his ministry journey, even when he felt unqualified. Today's verse reminds us that God, who begins a good work in us, is faithful to complete it. Reflect on your own journey with God. Where have you seen His faithfulness in preparing and equipping you? Are there areas where you feel inadequate for what God is calling you to do? Remember, God doesn't call the qualified; He qualifies the called. Thank Him for His ongoing work in your life, and ask for faith to trust Him in the areas where you feel weak or unprepared.
