Reading: Philippians 2:12-13
12 Dear friends, you always followed my instructions when I was with you. And now that I am away, it is even more important. Work hard to show the results of your salvation, obeying God with deep reverence and fear.
13 For God is working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases him.
DEVOTIONAL:
On day three, let's dive into the relationship between our actions and God's will. While we are called to 'work out our salvation with fear and trembling,' it is ultimately God who works within us. As you meditate on these verses, consider how you can actively show your faith while acknowledging that it is God who empowers and directs your path.
Question for Reflection:
How does the understanding that God works in you change the way you approach your daily tasks and spiritual disciplines?
