For indeed the gospel was preached to us as well as to them; but the word which they heard did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in those who heard [it]. ... again He designates a certain day, saying in David, "Today," after such a long time, as it has been said: "Today, if you will hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts."

Hebrews 4:2, 7 (NKJV)

Today’s Devotional 📖

Good Morning,

2025 is your year to thrive. Being able to hear from God is a key element to you being able to thrive this year. He leads us all in our hearts.

Proverbs 20:27 says, “The spirit of man [is] the candle of the LORD, searching all the inward parts of the belly.” (KJV)

If the power went out in your neighborhood, maybe you would light a candle to see around the house while you waited for the power to be restored. However, these days, most of us would either use a flashlight or the flashlight app on our phone. When we turn on our light of choice, it allows us to navigate in a dark environment. Your spirit is God’s candle, flashlight, flashlight app. It is the primary way He leads you day to day.

Psalm 18:28 (KJV) says, “For thou wilt light my candle: the LORD my God will enlighten my darkness.

In this dark world, God will enlighten your darkness by leading you through His Spirit. This is why we have to keep our hearts in the right condition so that we are consistently sensitive to His leadings. Next week, we will continue along these lines and share the different ways God leads you in your heart.

Remember, you are a believer. Not a doubter. Choose to believe God today. Keep depositing His Word in your heart. He is leading you! I want to share more about this with you in today’s podcast. You can stream today’s podcast on YouTube, Apple Podcast or Spotify.

Today’s Prayer 🙏

Pray this prayer with me today, “Father, I believe you love me extravagantly and you have great plans for my life. I pray that you will help me ponder the path of my feet. Grant me wisdom for all the decisions I have to make today. Show me the adjustments that I need to make. I ask for eyes that see and for ears that hear. Help me to guard my heart and have a soft heart before you. Thank you for leading me and guiding me. I will thrive in 2025! In Jesus’ name. Amen.”
