Grace & Glory Week 3 Devotions (With Scripture)

Monday, November 17, 2025 - Read 1 Peter 5:6 - “Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time.”

As we begin this week’s devotional journey, let us reflect on the importance of humility. When we submit ourselves to God's authority, we acknowledge our need for His guidance. This posture allows us to be lifted and empowered in His perfect timing. Today, consider areas in your life where pride may be holding you back. Surrender those to God, trusting that in your humility, He will elevate you and fulfill His purpose in your life.

Tuesday, November 18, 2025 – Read 1 Peter 5:7 - “Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.”

In moments of uncertainty and worry, we are reminded to cast our anxieties upon God. He is not distant or indifferent; He cares deeply for us. Take time today to identify what weighs heavily on your heart. Write it down and intentionally hand it over to God in prayer, releasing the burden. Remember that you are not alone, and His love is a refuge for your troubled spirit.

Wednesday, November 19, 2025 - Read 1 Peter 5:8-9 - “Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is undergoing the same kind of sufferings.”

Today, we are called to be vigilant and aware of the challenges we face. The enemy seeks to undermine our faith, but we can stand firm. Reflect on how you can strengthen your spiritual resilience. Engage in prayer, immerse yourself in Scripture, and connect with fellow believers. By staying alert and grounded, you can face trials with courage, knowing that you are part of a larger community of faith.

Thursday, November 20, 2025 - Read 1 Peter 5:10 – “And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast.”

God's grace is a powerful force in our lives. No matter the struggles we encounter, we can trust that He is working behind the scenes to restore us. Today, meditate on the concept of grace and how it has manifested in your own life. Consider the trials you have faced and how they have ultimately led to growth and strength. Allow the promise of restoration to fill you with hope and confidence in God’s goodness.

Friday, November 21, 2025 - Read 1 Peter 5:11 - “To him be the power for ever and ever. Amen.”

As we conclude this week’s devotional, let us celebrate the eternal power of God. Our journey may be filled with ups and downs, yet we have the assurance that He reigns over all. Reflect on what it means to trust in His power as you look to the future. Allow this truth to inspire you to live boldly and faithfully, knowing that the God who called you is with you every step of the way. Embrace the hope that comes from being anchored in Him.
