DEVOTIONAL:

MAIN SCRIPTURE: Acts 16:31 (NLT) 31 They replied, “Believe in the Lord Jesus and you will be saved, along with everyone in your household.”

Salvation is not just a religious term or a concept. It's the ultimate lifeline, a beacon of hope that outshines any darkness you might face. When the prison guard in Acts 16 asked Paul and Silas what he must do to be saved, the answer was extremely simple: "Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved." Not only was the prison guard saved, but his entire family experienced this transformative hope as well. Isn't that amazing?

You see, the gift of salvation is like a seed of eternal life planted in your heart. And the more you nurture it with faith, the more it grows, blossoming into a life filled with love, peace, and purpose. That's the kind of contagious hope we are called to share with others. Each one of us has a part to play in extending this incredible gift to those around us, whether it's our friends, family, or even strangers.

PRAYER:

Heavenly Father, I am beyond grateful for the gift of salvation. A gift so wonderful that words cannot fully describe. Fill me with Your Holy Spirit, empowering me to be a living testimony of Your amazing love and hope. Use me as Your instrument to share this priceless gift with others, that they too might experience the joy and peace that comes from knowing You. In Jesus' name, Amen.

ACTION STEP:

This week, make it a priority to share your faith with someone close to you. Extend an invitation to join you for a church service, or maybe share a Bible verse that has recently touched your heart and explain why it's meaningful to you.

Sometimes, the simplest actions can lead to the most profound changes in someone's life. Take that step today.
