Tasuta lugemisplaanid ja palveraamatud seoses Romans 7:18

Our faith isn’t a one-time moment of acceptance and salvation—it’s a continual walk with God as we seek to be more like Jesus. And we’re not alone on this journey! Hebrews 12 says that not only has Jesus walked the same path before us, but centuries of fellow believers who have faced every kind of challenge, sin, and peer pressure have run this race before us and are cheering us on. There are many things in our world that hinder our race. Our own sin, the sin of others, or even the good things we put in our life ahead of following Jesus. But we are empowered by the Holy Spirit to shatter every chain and sin and take our next steps in faith! What is holding you back? What’s keeping you trapped in fear and frustration? What is that thing in your life that you need to shatter to continue following hard after God?

In these devotionals, Texas pastor “JP” Pokluda leads us in looking at some of the modern-day vices that we find ourselves giving into (even when we know deep down that we shouldn’t). The goal is not to make us feel guilty. It is to help us see where we may have given the enemy (Satan) a foothold in our lives and, by looking to God’s Word, to pursue the life-giving virtues that Jesus has called us to.

What does it mean to be free? In this Plan, we will explore the meaning of true freedom in Christ. “For the one who was a slave when called to faith in the Lord is the Lord’s freed person; similarly, the one who was free when called is Christ’s slave” (1 Corinthians 7:22, NIV).

This book is a daily devotional filled with inspirational stories about Marines, vividly demonstrating how our warriors have been sustained by faith through the violence and dangers of war.

Making good decisions is paramount in managing what the Lord has placed in our hands. He is expecting a return on His investments in our salvation and restoration. It is not advisable to present ourselves empty-handed on “that day” when we will be accountable to Him. The Yellow Balloons team gives us a new perspective on one final key to the puzzle of choosing well. What will it be?

Loving others is hard. It goes against our heart's natural tendency to live for ourselves. It challenges us to put the needs of others above our own and model Christ's compassion. It calls us to give up our desires, resources, and time. This devotional shows our need for Christ's equipping to develop a servant's heart. Based on the book "Neighborology: Practicing Compassion as a Way of Life" by David Apple.

Shame is the feeling that you are no good. It makes us feel unloved and unlovable, and it sucks the life out of us, demotivating a man completely with its hopelessness. Shame is a heavy weight, and as strong as men are, we aren't meant to carry it. But God promises that shame is not meant to be a part of the Christian man's life. This week, we will grapple with the weighty topic of shame and learn how God sets men free from its grip. Written by Chris Walker

Over these seven days, this devotional will invite you to look at Jesus not only as an example of power, but as a model of surrendered humanity. You will learn that feeling fear is not sin, that experiencing anguish is not weakness, and that prayer is the bridge between fragility and purpose. The Son of God fully embraced our human condition to show us that the path to transformation does not come through denying what we feel, but through offering it to the Father.

Over these seven days, this devotional will lead you to confront your nature with honesty, but also with hope. Because when we bring our weakness to the point of origin—to God—what once seemed like defeat becomes a process of transformation. Fragility ceases to be shame and becomes the space where grace operates with greater power. We are not strong by denying our weakness. We are transformed when our fragility is surrendered to Absolute Value.

More than likely you have seen or experienced conflict among Christians, even to the point of people leaving the church.
