Christ Church Daily Devotion Nov 24 2023

In today's Daily Devotion, the focus is on letting Jesus Christ rule your heart and making God the number one priority in your life. Living a God-focused life brings purpose, joy, and love. Even on difficult days, God provides guidance and peace. The goal is to show others a different way to live and bring them closer to Jesus through our words and actions. Welcome to Christ Church's Daily Devotion for November 24th, 2023. Today we will be reading from 1 Peter 3, verse 15. But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect. Focus on the first part of this verse today. What does it mean to let Jesus Christ rule your heart, your mind, or whole life? In other words, we are to make God the number one priority and influence in our life. The purpose of living a God-focused life is to show others that there is another way to live. A life that loves God and loves others is filled with purpose, joy, light, and love. Not to say there are not difficult days, but when those come, God provides guidance, comfort, and peace. He is always with us, so we strive to choose awareness of His presence and to follow His leadership in our life. Today's personal worship option. Holy God and loving Father, please use my influence and the quality of my life to bring others to Jesus. Please give me wisdom as I seek to bring the following friends to Christ. May my words and actions lead them closer to You and show them my respect and love. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
