Joyce Meyer Daily Devotional 28 May 2025 (Wednesday) Message
TOPIC: Choose Obedience
Then Peter and the apostles replied, We must obey God rather than men.
Acts 5:29 (AMPC)
The apostles were being threatened with punishment if they continued to talk about Jesus, but they valued their reputation with God more than their reputation with man. This world is not our home. We are merely passing through, and while we are here it is important that we obey God at all times, even if that means that some people we know won’t like our choice.
We will all face times in life when we must choose between doing what a friend or family member wants us to do and doing what we truly believe God wants us to do. Always choose God and strive to keep a clear conscience. Only do what you have peace about doing and you will have a contentment in your soul that no person can give you. Let God guide you and always do now what you will be happy with later on in life!
Prayer of the Day: Father, when I have to make a choice between listening to You and listening to people, give me the courage to always choose You and Your will.
