Victory is Yours in Christ

The closer our relationship with God, the clearer His voice becomes. The clearer we hear His voice, the more sensitive we become to people’s needs and His desire for us to help them. As we grow spiritually, our Christian maturity is evidenced by our ability to hear God and act on what He's asking us to do.

God has blessed us with much. He's given us time, abilities, and resources. What we do with His blessings is determined by our willingness to walk in obedience to 1 Timothy 6:18-19. Are we selfish with His gifts, or do we share them with others? Do we stay inside and watch the game, or obey God and help our neighbor cut down a tree? When God reminds us of a friend who is sick, do we pick up a meal for the family or brush it off?

What is our response when God asks us to invest in others? When we share the abundant blessings God gave us, we create a legacy that outlives us. A wonderful treasure is stored in our heavenly account. Plus, we get to experience true happiness.

How can you live beyond yourself and bless someone else? Is God speaking to you to serve someone close to you—a family member, someone in your small group, or a friend at work? How will you share God's blessings with others today?

As you engage with God’s word:

● What is God saying to you?

● What does it mean to you?

● What action step do you need to take?

After you reflect on these questions, bring everything to God in prayer. Also, if you’re looking for more faith-building resources like this, I want to personally invite you to sign up for my weekly devotional email today!
