Becoming stronger in the grace of Christ

2 Timothy 2:1 – You then, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.

The apostle Paul’s counsel to Timothy is imperative to all Christians: to sow we need to be supplied.

We can not sow what we do not have. It is useless to prepare the earth if there are no seeds in our hands.

As we strengthen ourselves in the grace of Christ, he renews us and empowers us for an abundant harvest. This is a continuous process because we do not strengthen ourselves once, but we must fortify our faith daily and we need to appropriate the manna, as in the experience of the people of Israel in the desert, when God made a daily portion of bread come down from heaven.

Pray that the Lord will strengthen you and empower you in all areas of your life.

The right place

Throughout life, we are constantly called to make choices. Some seem obvious, attractive, and full of opportunities. Others require faith, patience, and trust in God. The problem is that not everything that looks good to our eyes is truly what is best for our future. The Bible shows us this through the story of Abraham and Lot, a narrative that remains extremely relevant for everyone who desires to live according to God’s will.

To avoid conflict, Abraham proposed that they separate and gave Lot the opportunity to choose first where he would go. Lot saw a place that, from a human perspective, seemed like the perfect choice. The plain was fertile, abundant, and promising. Everything pointed to prosperity. But Lot evaluated only what he could see. He observed the appearance of the land but ignored […]

Prayer: Running from religious fear

Prayer: Running from religious fear

In the previous text, we talked a little about religious OCD and how it takes our focus away from what Christ truly expects from us. Today, I want to invite you to pray with me about this subject, so that we may feel free in the Father’s presence, seeking Him with love, gratitude, and true peace. You do not need to pray exactly as I will write here. Open your heart genuinely to God. But it will be a pleasure to accompany you in this moment of prayer and seeking. Prayer Father, I know that many times my mind is filled with fear, guilt, and thoughts that steal the peace of my faith. I know that You do not want me to live imprisoned by spiritual anxiety, constantly trying to earn a love that was already given to me on the cross. Teach me to rest in You and to remember that Your love is not sustained by my performance, but by Your infinite grace. When intrusive thoughts come, when the fear of condemnation tries to dominate my heart, and when I feel spiritually overwhelmed, help me remember Your truth. Your Word says that I was not given a spirit […]
