God's Glory for our Good

Devotional: As we begin this journey, let's focus on the revelation of God's glory through Jesus Christ. The apostle John beautifully describes how the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth.
Just as the song lyrics state, "I have seen my Father's glory revealed in Jesus Christ," we too are invited to behold His glory.
Today, spend time meditating on how Jesus reveals God's character and love. How does gazing upon Christ's beauty satisfy your soul?
Consider ways you can intentionally "lift your eyes upward" throughout the day, focusing on God's glory rather than earthly distractions.

Devotional: Paul's words to the Corinthians challenge us to consider how our actions impact others and bring glory to God. The principle "All things are lawful, but not all things are helpful" invites us to examine our choices through the lens of love and edification.
Today, reflect on areas of your life where you might need to exercise restraint for the sake of others or for God's glory. How can you align your eating, drinking, and daily activities with the goal of glorifying God?
Ask the Holy Spirit to guide you in making choices that honor God and build up your neighbors in faith.

Devotional: The song reminds us, "There is hope in every trial, for I can trust the Lord." Paul echoes this sentiment in Romans, explaining how suffering produces endurance, character, and hope.
As you face challenges today, remember that God is working even in difficult circumstances to draw you closer to Him. How have past trials strengthened your faith?
Take time to thank God for His faithfulness in those moments. If you're currently in a season of struggle, ask God to reveal the lessons He wants you to learn and to help you trust His goodness amidst the pain.

Devotional: Today we focus on the profound truth that our sins were nailed to the cross with Christ. The song poignantly describes, "For the charge that was against me, it was nailed into the wood."
Meditate on the enormity of what Jesus accomplished on your behalf. How does the reality of your forgiveness and redemption impact your daily life?
Take time to confess any areas where you've been holding onto guilt or shame, and receive anew the freedom Christ purchased for you.
Let gratitude for your salvation fuel your worship and obedience today.

Devotional: Our journey concludes with a call to seek God's kingdom above all else. The song asks, "Would I seek the only kingdom that far outweighs them all?" Jesus teaches us not to worry about earthly concerns but to prioritize God's kingdom and righteousness.
Today, examine your priorities. Are there areas where worldly pursuits have overshadowed your devotion to God? How can you practically seek God's kingdom in your daily decisions and interactions?
Commit to living this day with an eternal perspective, trusting that as you seek His kingdom first, He will provide for all your needs.
