CONNECT 20

    Wednesday

    INTRO

    We want you to CONNECT with God through His Word, Prayer, & Worship.


    Today, call out to Him in prayer. Ask Him to "open your eyes" as you read through the scripture.


    As you observe the scripture, we encourage you to take notes.


    Notice the emotions, reasons, and context. Make sure to note what God wants you to know or do after reading the scripture.

    SCRIPTURE

    For it is all for your sake, so that as grace extends to more and more people it may increase thanksgiving, to the glory of God.

    - 2 Corinthians 4:15

    DEVOTIONAL

    Imagine trying to pour water from a container with no opening at the bottom. No matter how much you pour in at the top, nothing flows out to refresh others. This is what happens when we make ourselves the center of God's story—we become spiritual containers instead of fountains. God's blessings in your life were never meant to stop with you. Every grace you receive, every answered prayer, every moment of His faithfulness is designed to flow through you to others. When gratitude fills your heart, it naturally wants to overflow and bless those around you. But here's where many of us get stuck: we think God blesses us because we're special, because we deserve it, or because we're the main character in His story. This kind of thinking creates spiritual constipation—all the blessing flows in, but nothing flows out. We become bloated with God's goodness but ineffective in sharing it. True gratitude recognizes that we are blessed to be a blessing. When you understand that God's grace toward you is meant to multiply through you, everything changes. Your testimony becomes a tool in His hands. Your gratitude becomes a gateway for others to experience His goodness. The most grateful people are often the most generous people—not just with their money, but with their encouragement, their time, and their stories of God's faithfulness. They understand that gratitude is not a destination but a distribution center.

    PRAY

    Explore & examine the areas of your life that God needs to come under the truth. Take a moment to commit & surrender these areas in prayer.

    SHARE

    After, tell and share with others what God is teaching you! Try this:

    *Share your encouraging takeaways with others on your social media, or share your story with us. We want to celebrate with you!


    Memory Verse

    I have stored up your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you.

    - Psalm 119:11

    Bible Reading Plan

    Bible in 3 Years

    Most believers have a goal to read the entire Bible, but the goal can seem daunting at first. In this plan, you can read the entire Bible over a 3-year period as you commit to just one or two chapters a day. This plan is located within the YouVersion Bible App, and you can begin at any time.
