Some people in Paul's day (and even now) thought that you needed more in your life than just Christ. Paul on the other hand, was having none of that. For Drew's devotional tonight, he talked about Paul's message to the Colossians about the completeness that Christ brings to out lives, allowing us to continue our spiritual growth int the knowledge of God.
1st John is a great mix of straightforward information about the nature of Jesus and well as uplifting and encouraging words of comfort. For Colton's message tonight, he talked about Jesus's directive to live our lives as he did, and also encourages us that when we invariably fall short, we also have an advocate in Him to provide us forgiveness and strength.
Jesus died for our sins but what does he actually do with those sins? For Drew's devotional tonight, he talks about the complete destruction of our sins and past mistakes at the loving hands or our Lord and savior.
The Bible reminds us that we are to run the race of life as someone who wants to win, but not to win an earthly prize, we should strive to win the prize of everlasting life with Christ. For Eric's devotional tonight, he talked about the satisfaction that comes with victory over challenges in our lives but for us, the greatest victory is already won in Christ. We have only to represent Him who gave his life for us.
Ananias had a very small mention in the bible when God asked him to go to Saul and heal his blindness, but there is much we can learn from him. For Matt's devotional tonight he talked about Gods desire to work with the everyday you and me. God doesn't need us to be famous or accomplished, he only needs us to listen and respond with a hearty "Yes Lord, send me" when called.
