Today’s devotion explores one of the most powerful influences in your life: your friendships. Scripture teaches that the people you walk with shape who you become. Proverbs tells us, “As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.” God designed friendships to strengthen our character, sharpen our faith, and draw us closer to Him.

In this message, we look at four essential truths:

1. Godly Friends Sharpen Your Character
Wise friends challenge you to grow, correct you with love, and help you walk in righteousness.

2. Godly Friends Strengthen Your Faith
True friends lift you when you fall, pray for you when you’re weak, and encourage you when your faith feels low.

3. Godly Friends Speak the Truth in Love
Honest correction from a loving friend protects your spiritual growth and helps you stay on the right path.

4. Godly Friends Point You Toward Jesus
The best friendships are Christ-centered — encouraging you toward love, purpose, and spiritual maturity.

Memory Verse:
Proverbs 27:17 — “As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.”

May this devotion inspire you to choose friendships that help you grow and to become the kind of friend who strengthens others in Christ.

Today’s devotion reminds us of one of the greatest comforts in the Christian life: you never pray alone. Prayer can feel overwhelming when you don’t know what to say, when you feel weak, or when your heart is too heavy to form words. But Scripture teaches that the Holy Spirit steps in, strengthens us, and intercedes on our behalf.

In this message, we explore four powerful truths:

1. The Spirit Helps Us in Our Weakness
He strengthens us, lifts us, and joins us in prayer when we have no strength of our own.

2. The Spirit Gives Us Words When We Have None
Prayer is not about sounding impressive — the Spirit expresses the cry of our hearts perfectly before the Father.

3. The Spirit Aligns Our Prayers With God’s Will
He shifts our focus from “my will” to “Thy will,” shaping our desires to match God’s heart.

4. The Spirit Intercedes for Us
Even when you feel unheard, heaven is listening. The Holy Spirit and Jesus Himself intercede for you continually.

Memory Verse:
Romans 8:26 — “The Spirit helps us in our weakness…”

May this devotion strengthen your prayer life and remind you that the Holy Spirit is always near, always guiding, and always praying with you.

Today’s devotion is titled Keep Your Eyes on Eternal Things, based on Colossians 3:1–2. We live in a world filled with distractions, pressures, and constant noise. Yet Scripture calls us to lift our focus from the temporary and fix our hearts on what is eternal.

In this message we explore four key truths that help us live with heaven’s perspective:

• Eternal focus begins with a changed heart.
When Christ makes us new, our desires and priorities must shift toward what God values.

• Eternal focus requires a renewed mind.
God transforms our thinking through His Word, helping us rise above the world’s noise and confusion.

• Eternal focus helps us live with purpose, not pressure.
Earthly troubles feel lighter when we see them through the lens of eternity.

• Eternal focus keeps Christ at the center.
Fixing our eyes on Jesus brings clarity, direction, and peace, even in difficult seasons.

Memory Verse:
Colossians 3:1–2 — “Set your hearts on things above… Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.”

May this devotion encourage you to walk through each day with eternity in your heart and Jesus at the center.
