It All Points to Jesus

Day 345 · December 11

A devotional for today

Today’s readings

Old Testament

Israel ignores repeated warnings. Amos exposes comfortable religion that sings worship songs while neglecting justice and refusing to return to God.

New Testament

Jesus warns Thyatira and Sardis against tolerated sin and spiritual deadness. He calls His people to wake up, repent, and hold firmly to what remains.

Psalm

From the depths, the psalmist cries for mercy and waits for the Lord, whose forgiveness and redemption give hope. Proverb Summary Anger and entitlement produce conflict and sin. Discover Jesus Jesus does not settle for appearances. He searches hearts, forgives repentant sinners, and calls spiritually sleepy people to wake up. Reflect

Where might I look alive spiritually while actually becoming sleepy inside? Fellowship Pray for spiritual awakening in your own heart before asking for it in anyone else.

Prayer

Lord Jesus, wake me up. Search my heart, forgive me, and make my worship genuine. Amen.

Live

Choose repentance over appearance.
