Devotional Reflection

Morality and holiness are not temporary or short-term requirements because they reflect the nature of our holy God, who is also eternal. They don't change based on what a culture wants but are the same in all places, times, and circumstances. We don't change God's will to fit our times; instead, we change ourselves to fit His truth.

Prayer

God is righteous and almighty. May my actions show compassion, holiness, and justice as examples of Your nature. I want to invest my life in things that will last because I know You are eternal. Give me the discernment to resist today's fleeting temptations and act in a way that will honor You long after I am gone. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.
