EVENING #DEVOTIONAL AND REFLECTIONS WITH ISAIAH-PHILLIPS AKINTOLA. EPISODE 1.

It’s all too common to become overwhelmed by the chaos of daily life and to lose sight of our fundamental purpose; nurturing a deep and meaningful devotional life. While dedicating our lives to Christ is essential, understanding how to embody that commitment in a way that fosters daily spiritual growth in the presence of the Father is an entirely different challenge.Devotion is the key to maintaining and developing our spiritual life. When we don't have a solid, continual devotional lifestyle, we cannot grow in the way and manner that God intended for us. Hence, devotion is a point and a place where we get to understand and experience the transforming power of our relationship with the Lord.It is a privilege to be daily invited to share in the glorious experience around and within the throne of God. To me, devotion is far more than a time of prayer or worship, though these are vitally important. Devotion is an opportunity to go deeper into the things of God, to measure my place and position in terms of spiritual development.The place of devotion is where I see myself in the light of Christ. It is the point where all that I am is weighed and measured on the scale of authenticity. Devotion is where I am refined, transformed, and empowered in the light of the Spirit. It is the place where everything required to carry out God's intentions is given, renewed, and refined. It is also where I am launched out for the day.
