Open by taking 2-3 minutes to pray and ask God to speak to you today through your devotional time.
Read Philippians 3 and 4:10-13. Be sure to highlight or note anything that stands out to you while you read.
After reading the passage, take the next 5-10 minutes and spend time reflecting on what you read. You can write these things down in a journal or record them in your phone. Be attentive to both what you highlighted in the passage and what is going on in your life.
How can a love for Jesus and contentment change how you think about happiness?
Now, take 10 minutes to seek God in prayer…
- Begin your time in prayer by taking 1-3 minutes to sit in silence (You can take longer if you sense the Spirit already beginning to speak to you).
- Take time to ask God to increase your love and dependence on Him.
- Thank God for specific areas where He has been faithful.
- Close by taking 5 minutes to sit in silence, asking God if there is anything else He wants to speak to you today.
