WHAT SHALL IT PROFIT A MAN? (2)

TIMES OF REFRESHING ONLINE DAILY DEVOTIONAL www.thefountspring.org

DATE: FRIDAY, 8 SEPTEMBER 2023

So, beloved, as we continue to reflect on this timeless subject, let us look at “the incomparable value of our Soul.” In the hustle and bustle of life, it is easy to lose sight of the true essence of our existence—the soul. You see, our souls are eternal, created in the image of God. They are beyond price, and no earthly treasure can match their worth. Therefore, the question reminds us that our souls are of immeasurable value.

Bottom of FormSCRIPTURE: “For what shall it profit a man if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul?” – Mark 8:36 (NIV)

REFRESHING FOR THE DAY: So, it’s a tragic and profound loss for us to gain the whole world and lose our souls. Gaining the world’s riches and losing the eternal joy, peace, and connection with our Creator is an ultimate loss. Thus, as we contemplate this question, let us commit to investing in the eternal– our relationship with God, our love for one another, and sincere acts of kindness. These investments not only enrich our souls but also impact the world around us. Stay Refreshed!

NOTE THIS: Gaining the world’s riches and losing the eternal joy, peace, and connection with our Creator is an ultimate loss.

RESPONSIBILITY: So, dearly beloved, let us seek to invest in the eternal.

PRAYER: Oh GOD, help us to invest our time, energy, and resources in the eternal, and in nurturing our souls, and in strengthening our connection with You, in the name of Jesus’ Amen!

PROPHETIC WORD: May our lives be a testament to the true profit found in the richness of our spirits, in the name of Jesus’ Amen!

BIBLE TEXTS: Mark 8:36
