God’s power is not limited

The Lord answered Moses, “Is the Lord’s arm too short? Now you will see whether or not what I say will come true for you.”
- Numbers 11:23

On the journey to the promised land, the Hebrew people complained constantly. At a certain moment, when they complained about the lack of meat because they were tired of the manna, God told Moses that He would provide them with meat for an entire month.

Faced with such an extraordinary promise, Moses doubted that this could be possible. Not even if all the cattle of Israel were slaughtered would it suffice. It is at that moment that God confirms His power, He is not limited by anything and He did exactly as He had said.

Many times we act like Moses and doubt the extraordinary power of God working in our lives. In fact, we act both like Moses, who doubted, and like the people, who complained. While we journey through life, we complain about everything and doubt that God will supply our needs. But rest, the Lord’s power is not limited.

See whether His word will be fulfilled!

  • Bring all your doubts, longings, and problems to Him in prayer; let Him hear what you are going through.
  • Trust that God’s power is not limited, He can work in your life and intervene where you need Him.
  • But be obedient, not a complainer who forgets the wonderful works God has already done.

To pray:

Lord God, I thank You for everything You have already done for me, for the salvation You have given me through Your Son Jesus Christ, and for all else. I ask forgiveness for the times I complain, forgetting Your power. I also bring before You my concerns; I want to trust in Your mighty hand to meet my needs. In Jesus’ name, amen!

Yesterday's Devotional

Only God grants us the victory

I put no trust in my bow,
my sword does not bring me victory;
but you give us victory over our enemies,
you put our adversaries to shame.
In God we make our boast all day long,
and we will praise your name forever.
- Psalm 44:6–8

We may be strong and persistent, but only God can give us victory. The psalmist, when writing these words, knew this very well. Without God, our strength, and our will is not enough to achieve victory.

In fact, we must continue to praise God even in the worst moments, because only He can turn a difficult situation around. It is God who determines all things, and through Him we obtain victory. Seek growth, strengthen yourself, but above all, trust in God!

When we direct our efforts toward seeking God, we focus on what truly matters. In this way we grow in grace, from faith to faith and from glory to glory.

Trusting in God

  • We trust more in God when we learn more about His works. Read the Bible regularly.
  • Life is an exercise of faith. Exercising faith is an act of trust in God.
  • As we seek God, we know our limitations. This leads us to trust Him more than our own abilities.

Prayer

God, all ability comes from You. Even in the most difficult moments, only You can grant victory. Guard my life and strengthen me according to Your Word. In the name of Jesus, amen.

Day Before Yesterday's Devotional

Fearing is not the same as being afraid!

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom,
and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
- Proverbs 9:10

The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom! Disrespect, on the other hand, is a step toward destruction. To fear God is not to be afraid, it is to have reverence and devotion.

Respect begins when we recognize that He is sovereign: omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent. God knows everything, even what is in our hearts. That is why the fear of the Lord must be genuine.

The greatest proof of respect we can show to God is by obeying His Word. Those who truly respect Him listen to and keep His Word in their hearts. Whoever does this is wise and reaps all the good that God has to offer.

Do not be afraid of God, but understand that He is love and justice (Psalm 9:8).

Keeping the Word

  • Do not treat the Word of God as a puzzle to figure out, but see it as a manual for eternal life!
  • Develop intimacy with God’s Word, read it daily and meditate on what you’ve read.
  • Ask the Holy Spirit to give you understanding. When we understand what we see, we learn to respect what we receive.

Prayer

Lord, You are powerful; You are love and justice!
Obeying Your Word is my delight, it is food and comfort for my soul.
Only Your Word leads to eternal life.
Amen.

What is the Daily Devotional

The Daily Devotional is a special moment of your day that you dedicate to having a precious time of intimacy with God. It is very simple to establish an exciting routine of discovery and spiritual growth. You will achieve this by setting aside a moment each day to draw near to the Lord. During the Devotional, you will read a Bible verse with a meditation on the text. Then, you will meditate on the teachings and how to apply them in your life. In the end, you can pray.

How to do your Daily Devotional

Here are some tips for making the most of reading the Bible message during the Daily Devotional:

  1. Set aside a moment and choose a specific place: your devotional time will be more beneficial if you set aside the hustle and bustle and invest in a pleasant time alone with God.
  2. Read the verse or Bible passage attentively: develop a lifestyle committed to the Word of God every day and avoid distractions.
  3. Read the daily meditation: reflect and try to understand God's purpose for your life through the comments.
  4. Practical application: jot down your findings and don't forget to put into practice everything you have learned through the Bible.
  5. Share what you learned: try to share with people around what God has been teaching you in your moments of daily devotion as you go about your daily conversations and interactions.

Don't forget the importance of living a life fully committed to the Word of God!
