Přísloví 27:4-6

Why are hurtful, untrue words so tempting for us?

Jealousy is a silent thief that steals joy, poisons relationships, and blinds us to God’s goodness in our own lives. This 3-day devotional will help you, through the power of the Holy Spirit, to recognize and overcome jealousy, embrace contentment, and walk in the freedom of love. Each day includes Scripture, reflection, declarations, and Spirit-led prayers that bring healing, deliverance, and renewal in Christ.

The apostle Paul described contentment as a “secret” that he had to learn. The Puritan Jeremiah Burroughs called it a “rare jewel” that one must seek out. One thing is certain: in a competitive, prideful, materialistic world, we will never stumble into contentment. The Bible teaches us that we will find it only as we turn our eyes to God, our Provider, trusting Him to give us what we need and thanking Him for what He has given.

How many times a week do you feel jealous? Either a quick thought about your neighbor’s cool car, the raise your co-worker got, or wanting a loving spouse like all of your friends have… Whatever it is, it’s a struggle that can lead to sin. This week let’s delve into the meanings of jealousy and plan our attack to beat it, embrace it, or use it for God’s glory.
