Daily Devotional for May 12
“For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.” (2 Timothy 1:7)
Find Strength in Faith
There are days when the challenges and obstacles seem overwhelming, and the urge to give up grows strong. It’s in these moments that you must remember: God has endowed you with the power to hold on.
Like Timothy, you might feel worn out or that circumstances are too much to bear. Yet, remember the transformative power of the Holy Spirit that resides within you.
Paul’s Encouragement to Timothy
Apostle Paul’s words to Timothy ring true for us today. When you feel like quitting, recall the calling upon your life.
Remember the spirit of power, love, discipline, and self-control that God has given you. This spirit is designed not just to help you survive but to thrive even amidst trials.
Stability Through Faith
The stability of your faith allows you to do what is right, even when it is hard and doesn’t feel good. Faith provides the steadiness you need to continue your journey in alignment with God’s will.
Be encouraged today. Because of Christ in you, you have what it takes to face whatever comes your way.
