Whose Side Are You On? | Daily Devotional 1622

from My Morning Devotional Hosted by Metro Life Studios

Are there areas of your life where you’re trying to please the world more than you’re trying to please God? In today’s episode, Gaby Alessi Calatayud takes us into James 4:4–6 and challenges us to examine where our loyalty truly lies. Following Jesus means allowing God’s truth and values to shape our lives, even when doing so feels uncomfortable or goes against what the people around us believe. We’ll be encouraged to consider where popularity, acceptance, success, relationships, or comfort may be influencing us more than God. Whether it’s at work, at school, on social media, or even within our families, God isn’t asking for part of our hearts. He wants our full devotion. Let’s join in prayer and devotion as a community, asking God for the strength to stand firm in our faith, the wisdom to navigate difficult moments with grace, and hearts that choose Him above everything else.
