5-Day Devo (Based on 6.15.25 Sermon)

Here's a 5-day Bible reading plan and devotional guide based on the June 15, 2025 Sermon.

Reading: John 14:15-26

Devotional: Jesus promised us a Helper, the Holy Spirit, to be with us always. As we begin this journey of opening ourselves to the Spirit, reflect on how aware you are of His presence in your daily life. Have you been trying to live the Christian life in your own strength? Take time today to acknowledge the Spirit's presence and invite Him to guide your thoughts and actions. Ask God to heighten your awareness of the Spirit's gentle promptings throughout your day.

Reading: Genesis 1:1-2, 2 Corinthians 5:17

Devotional: From the beginning, the Holy Spirit has been active in bringing order out of chaos and beauty out of formlessness. Just as He hovered over the waters at creation, He hovers over our lives, seeking to bring spiritual order and beauty. Consider areas of your life that feel chaotic or disordered. Invite the Holy Spirit to move in those areas, trusting in His power to re-create and renew. How might you cooperate with the Spirit's work of making you a new creation in Christ?

Reading: Acts 1:8, 1 Corinthians 12:4-11

Devotional: The Holy Spirit empowers us to live out God's calling on our lives. He equips us with gifts and abilities that go beyond our natural talents. Reflect on how you've experienced the Spirit's empowerment in your life. Are there areas where you feel inadequate for the task God has given you? Ask the Holy Spirit to fill you afresh today, trusting that His power is made perfect in our weakness. How can you step out in faith, relying on His strength rather than your own?

Reading: Galatians 5:16-25

Devotional: As the Holy Spirit works in our lives, He produces fruit that reflects God's character. This transformation is not something we can achieve through willpower alone, but through yielding to the Spirit's work in us. Examine your life in light of the fruit of the Spirit. Which aspects of the fruit do you see growing? Which areas need more cultivation? Ask the Holy Spirit to continue His transformative work in you, replacing the acts of the flesh with His fruit.

Reading: Romans 8:5-17

Devotional: Living in harmony with the Holy Spirit is the key to experiencing the abundant life Jesus promised. It involves a daily choice to set our minds on the things of the Spirit rather than the things of the flesh. Reflect on your thought patterns and decision-making processes. Are they aligned with the Spirit's leading or with worldly desires? Ask the Holy Spirit to help you discern His voice more clearly and to give you the courage to follow His guidance, even when it conflicts with your natural inclinations.
