Empowered for Life: Introduction to the 21-Day Devotional Summary
Welcome to Firm Foundation Inspiration Minute #156! This is a special edition as we prepare for a 21-day devotional on Principles of Empowerment, beginning February 7th.
The Power of God’s Word
Psalm 119:11 – "Your word have I hidden in my heart, that I might not sin against you."God’s Word is a source of strength, guidance, and empowerment.In an age of overwhelming information, discerning God’s voice is crucial (John 10:27).Jesus, as the Word of God, strengthens us when His Word abides in us.Understanding Sin and the Need for Direction
Sin means "to miss the mark" (from archery).Without God’s direction, we lack aim and purpose.True empowerment comes through aligning our lives with God's truth.Introducing the 21-Day Devotional
