You Cannot Change YourselfScripture: Jeremiah 13:23“Can an Ethiopian change his skin or a leopard its spots? Neither can you do good who are accustomed to doing evil.”ExplanationThis verse reminds you of an uncomfortable truth: you cannot transform yourself. Your problem is not merely behavior but nature. You do wrong things because you are a sinner by nature. That is why you need more than advice or motivation. You need salvation. You need God to change you from the inside out.Personal ReflectionI see how often I rely on willpower and determination to improve myself. Yet I fall into the same patterns again and again. This verse humbles me and reminds me that I need God’s power, not my effort.Personal Application (You)Stop trying to fix yourself today. Admit to God that you cannot change without Him. Surrender your efforts and ask Him to do what only He can do.Closing LineContinue reflecting on how God restores your heart in this week’s devotional journey. Hosted on Acast.
