Charles Stanley Daily Devotional TOPIC: Walking Wisely
Today’s Scripture: Ephesians 5:15-17
In today’s passage, the apostle Paul is teaching how to develop a lifestyle of righteousness. He gives three instructions about making godly choices. He says to …
- “Be careful how you walk” (Eph. 5:15). Unless we deliberately choose to guard ourselves, we will simply do what comes naturally without thinking through our actions.
- “Make the most of your time” (v. 16). God has entrusted each of us with the time and opportunities to participate in His plans for us. But we are tempted to squander our time and energy on other pursuits without considering what our heavenly Father may have in mind for us.
- “Understand what the will of the Lord is” (v. 17). In its broadest sense, God’s will for us is that we would each become the person He created us to be and that we’d do the work He has planned specifically for us to carry out (Ephesians 2:10). Knowing this, we should evaluate our choices through a spiritual “filter” and ask ourselves if they’ll further our Father’s purposes.
The Lord wants us to walk wisely so we can enjoy all the marvelous benefits that He’s promised in His Word and longs to give us. Let’s commit to make each and every day count for Jesus Christ instead of merely living for ourselves.
Bible in One Year: Deuteronomy 21-23
Thought for Today: The Lord wants us to walk wisely so we can enjoy the blessings He longs to give us.
