Behind Every Good and Perfect Gift “Behind every good and perfect gift are the favours of God.” Every good thing we receive in our lives has God as its source. People may help us, opportunities may come, and doors may open; but behind them all is the hand of God. Sometimes, we rejoice over the blessing we have received, but forget the One who gave us that blessing. Don’t just look at the gift; look to the Giver. Be thankful not only for what God has given you, but also for the things He has withheld from you. For He knows better than we do what is truly good for us. “Every good gift is a reminder that God continues to be good to us.” James 1:17 “Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights…” Hepsi Sam ✍️

Paul carefully planned his journey because he desired to reach Jerusalem by the Day of Pentecost. Although he deeply loved the believers in Ephesus, he recognized that God's calling required him to stay focused on the mission before him. His decisions reflected wisdom, discipline, and a commitment to making the best use of the time God had given him. This verse reminds us that living for Christ requires intentional choices. Paul understood that not every good opportunity could be pursued if it distracted him from God's greater purpose. He remained focused on the mission the Lord had entrusted to him, even when doing so meant making difficult decisions. For believers today, this passage encourages us to use our time wisely and keep Christ at the center of our priorities. There are many good things competing for our attention, but not everything deserves the same place in our lives. As we seek God's direction, He helps us recognize what truly matters and make decisions that honor Him. A purposeful life is not necessarily a busy life. It is a life surrendered to God's will and intentional about using every opportunity for His glory. When our priorities are aligned with Christ, our time, energy, relationships, and resources can all become instruments for advancing His kingdom. Reflection Questions 1. Are my daily priorities aligned with God's purpose for my life? 2. What distractions keep me from focusing on what matters most? 3. How can I better use my time to serve the Lord? Prayer Lord God, thank You for giving me each day as a gift. Help me to use my time wisely and to keep my focus on the purpose You have for my life. Guide my decisions so that everything I do brings honor and glory to You. Give me wisdom to recognize distractions and courage to prioritize what truly matters. In Jesus' name, Amen. Practical Application Begin each day by committing your schedule to the Lord. Focus on activities that strengthen your relationship with Christ. Make time to serve others and share God's love. --- Takeaway Thought A life focused on God's purpose is a life that leaves an eternal impact. ``` *DAILY DEVOTION* Check it out!: Shared from https://lordsbook.com download the app on IOS https://apps.apple.com/ug/app/lordsbook-app/id6670486435 ANDROID https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.himfirstapps.lordsbookapp

What I learned today, August 23, from Brother Rodney The will of God is expressed in 1 Timothy 2:4: that all will be saved. This does not fit with the narrative of most churches because they transform God's will into merely a desire for people to be saved. But a desire may or may not happen; a will is different. By doing this, they place salvation in human hands, teaching that we have to do something and/or say something in order to obtain it. But faith comes simply by hearing. By hearing, we can believe, and eventually everyone will believe. God is omniscient. He knows everything from the beginning, and His plan has already been established. As Isaiah 46:10 says, God declares the end from the beginning. Therefore, His will does not depend on human beings making it happen. God already knows and has declared the end. All will be saved. This is His will, and it has been part of His plan from the beginning.
