HOPELESS WITHOUT CHRIST (4)
TIMES OF REFRESHING ONLINE DAILY DEVOTIONAL www.thefountspring.org
DATE: SUNDAY, 13 AUGUST 2023
So, beloved, life without Christ is hopeless. Yes, this is true. The world may offer temporary solutions and fleeting distractions, but true and lasting hope can only be found in Christ. Think of a puzzle missing a crucial piece. No matter how intricate and well-crafted the rest of the puzzle might be, that one missing piece leaves it incomplete and unsatisfying. Similarly, when we attempt to navigate life without Christ, we are incomplete and left yearning for something more. Any wonder, the Bible says in 2 Peter 1:2-3,
Bottom of FormSCRIPTURE: Do you want more and more of God’s kindness and peace? Then learn to know him better and better. For as you know him better, he will give you, through his great power, everything you need for living a truly good life… (2 Peter 1:2-3 TLB)
REFRESHING FOR THE DAY: Life in Christ is the gateway to discovering the most profound and transformative hope we could ever imagine. Without Christ, we are like empty vessels, striving to find purpose, peace, and fulfillment in life. So, as we walk this journey, let us remember that our hopelessness can be transformed into hopefulness through the power of Christ. And in surrendering our weaknesses and insecurities to Him, we invite His strength to take root within us. Stay Refreshed!
NOTE THIS: Christ is the anchor of our souls, grounding us even in the most turbulent times. When everything else fails, His promises remain constant, serving as beacons of light in the darkness.
RESPONSIBILITY: So, dearly beloved, go to God in prayers, ask Him for the grace to seek Him daily and continue to lean on His promises.
PRAYER: O LORD JESUS, I need You in my life. Help me to abide in You daily, seeking Your guidance and leaning on Your promises, in the name of Jesus’ Amen!
PROPHETIC WORD: As you abide in Christ, may the Lord cause you to find strength, purpose, and unwavering hope, in the name of Jesus’ Amen!
BIBLE TEXTS: 2 Peter 1:2-3
