(Purchase book at Amazon. Not Required for the Devotional, but Recommended)
Welcome to Firm Foundation Inspiration Minute #156! This is a special edition as we prepare for a 21-day devotional on Principles of Empowerment, beginning February 7th.
The Power of God’s Word
Psalm 119:11 – "Your word have I hidden in my heart, that I might not sin against you."
• God’s Word is a source of strength, guidance, and empowerment.
• In an age of overwhelming information, discerning God’s voice is crucial (John 10:27).
• Jesus, as the Word of God, strengthens us when His Word abides in us.
Understanding Sin and the Need for Direction
• Sin means "to miss the mark" (from archery).
• Without God’s direction, we lack aim and purpose.
• True empowerment comes through aligning our lives with God's truth.
Introducing the 21-Day Devotional
• Begins February 7th – short daily readings with scripture and reflection questions.
• Day 1 Theme: "Free Indeed – The Beginning of Empowerment" (John 8:31-32).
• Key thought: “In Christ, I am free indeed and free forever.”
• Reflection question: "What have I substituted for the true freedom that only Christ can give?"
• True freedom is a treasured inheritance through Christ.
• Sin means "to miss the mark" (from archery).
• Without God’s direction, we lack aim and purpose.
• True empowerment comes through aligning our lives with God's truth.
