This seven-day devotional will teach you the art of praying through Scripture as you address the subject of anxiety.

According to the Gallup Poll millions of people have had near-death experiences. Those who glimpsed the afterlife knew there was a boundary they could not cross and still return, so their stories should never form our theological framework of eternity. But these testimonies help us answer God’s command to imagine Heaven—to set our minds on the magnificent promises of eternity in a way that changes how we live today.

What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. Or not? In this Plan, we will explore how our own will and imaginary strength often stand in the way of God’s power. “Each time He said, ‘My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness’” (2 Corinthians 12:9, NLT).

This week, we will journey through an overview of the book of 2nd Corinthians, looking at what it can teach us about who God is and who we are in Him as He makes us into people who are completely new!

Pain, fear, sin... these don't have to run your life. Discover who God made you to be with practical steps and empowered encouragement, because hope changes everything. (This plan adapted from the book Hope Changes Everything by Lance Lang.)

Most people don't like to feel weak. Physical and mental strength are reassuring because they give us the feeling of being in control of our life. But unfortunately, every person faces weakness from time to time. How does that work in the life of a follower of Jesus? Paul, a believer we meet in the Bible, has something to say about that. We are going to listen to his thoughts in this reading plan.

Sometimes we pray for something and feel there are no answers from God. There are things in our lives and hearts that may cause God to not hear our prayers.

The Bible commands us to care for the poor and oppressed. Come and explore the depth of God’s concern for them, and how you might answer the call yourself. Each day includes a real-life story or anecdote, Scripture and meditation, challenge, and prayer.

Jesus told the Apostle Paul, “My grace is sufficient for you.” Do you know the story behind that promise? Paul’s life was marked by extreme difficulty. This devotional by David Guzik is a verse-by-verse commentary of 2 Corinthians 12:7-10. Find comfort and hope in God’s Word, following Paul’s example of how to trust God in times of suffering. Be encouraged that God’s grace is sufficient for you!

Is our life progressively changing after encountering Christ? How can we build assets that last beyond life? How can we radiate joy, contentment, and peace in all situations? This, and much more, is addressed in Paul’s letters. Not only does he teach, he leads by example. As false teachings and leaders are fast penetrating, these letters rock churches into strong defense and action. Their undiluted truths continue to transform lives.

In his second letter to the church at Corinth, Paul encourages believers to live in the identity Christ has provided for them. Although as fragile and mundane as jars of clay, God’s people hold the inestimable treasure of the gospel in their lives (2 Corinthians 4:7). 2 Corinthians reminds us that we are ambassadors for Christ, tasked with showing and sharing God’s good news of reconciliation for all who believe (2 Corinthians 5:20).

“It’s complicated”—that is probably an apt way to describe the relationship between Paul and the church in Corinth. His first letter was met with resistance: some rejected his criticism and even questioned his authority. Paul traveled to Corinth in person—a painful visit. After he returned, he wrote a severe letter in tears. The church responded: many repented. Paul heard about this from Titus and wrote again—our Second Letter to the Corinthians. It is a testimony to genuine reconciliation, to love that has been hurt, and to the divine power that can heal even broken relationships, even today.

It doesn’t matter if you have been downsized, laid off or outsourced, let go or fired. The pain is real, and the terrible toll of fear, anger, confusion, and uncertainty that happens when a person’s world collapses around him or her is much more than a statistical reality. It is just real. We pray that these devotionals will be used by Him to bring you hope and encouragement.

Jesus provided healing for us just as much as forgiveness through His finished work of the Cross. God has not made this difficult to receive but a simple faith that focuses on seeing Jesus and what He has already done for you, positions you for the power of God that is enough to heal 'every kind of sickness and every kind of disease'.

This meditative reflection on 2 Corinthians 12:7-10 about Paul’s thorn in the flesh, starts and finishes with a celebration of God’s abundant grace. In between, we explore the enigma of human suffering. What should our response be to the agony of our painful thorns? This plan will help you set your sails to receive the wind of God’s lavish grace.

Let’s explore how we can influence the culture with the truth of God’s word through 1 and 2 Corinthians! These two letters are a powerful message from the Apostle Paul to a church that was passionate about its mission but needed direction to remain true to its Christian faith and doctrines. Those priorities make his letters important teaching for every Christian.
