Good evening, brethren. 1. Evening devotional for today. *DAILY WALK WITH CHRIST* (COCIN DEVOTIONAL) *DATE:* WEDNESDAY 14TH JANUARY, 2026. *SUB-THEME:* THE AMAZING GRACE OF GOD. *TOPIC:* GRACE STRENGTHENS. *TEXT:* 2 CORINTHIANS 12:7-10. 7. or because of these surpassingly great revelations. Therefore, in order to keep me from becoming conceited, I was given a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me. 8. Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. 9. But He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. 10. That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong. *TOPIC:* GRACE STRENGTHENS. *THE MESSAGE:* God's grace provides strength in times of difficulty. Paul was going through some physical pains and wished God would heal him. But God said, "My grace is sufficient for you." This declaration emphasises that God's grace is enough to sustain us through our struggles. It further suggests that God's power is most evident when human strength fails. Your situation may be critical like facing a death sentence, imprisonment, or terminal illness, and you may be thinking of giving up. Be encouraged that God's grace is available to enable you to overcome. Brethren, lay your burdens on Christ, He is faithful and empathises with you in your weakness (Heb. 4:14-16). Therefore, it is an error to depend on your strength while God's grace is available. Appropriate it! *REFLECTION:* Come to Jesus for renewed strength. *PRAYER:* Father, strengthen me for I am weak. Amen. *MEMORY VERSE FOR THE MONTH:* EPHESIANS 2:8-9. "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith - and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God - not by works, so that no one can boast." *TODAY'S BIBLE READING PLAN:* GENESIS 37-40. 2. Evening prayer for today. Evening Prayer If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us [our] sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. ⏤ 1 John 1:9 Prayer will make a man cease from sin, or sin will entice a man to cease from prayer. ⏤ John Bunyan O God, our Father, we come to You now at the close of this day with our evening prayers. Please accept us and our worship, and grant us Your mercy. We placed ourselves in Your care this morning, and You’ve kept us through all the experiences of the day. We bring our day’s work to You. It’s not what it should have been. We haven’t lived as well as we knew we should. We’ve done many things we didn’t mean to do, and we’ve failed to do many things we intended to do. Our own hearts condemn us, and You, who are greater than our hearts, have seen even more of our sins today than we have noticed. We plead with You for forgiveness. Yet, we ask You to accept what we bring to You, imperfect and stained as it is. You know how frail we are. You remember that we are made of dust. Have pity on our weakness and teach us how to grow strong. Accept the mere fragments of our living that we bring to You tonight, and use them for Your glory and the blessing of the world. Whatever has been good and acceptable in our life and work today, please take it from our hands and use it to bless others. Bless the influence we’ve had on others today. If we’ve hurt any of Your children, please forgive us and heal the wounds we’ve caused. If we’ve discouraged others by our words, actions, or example, making life harder for them, we ask for Your forgiveness, and we pray that we may live in a way that is always a help and inspiration to others. We ask all this in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Redeemer. Amen. https://www.youdevotion.com/daily-prayer/miller/10/evening #taptapstudio #youdevotion.
