Living With Eternal Perspective
Open by taking 2-3 minutes to pray and ask God to speak to you today through your devotional time.
Read 2 Corinthians 4. 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.
Paul encourages us not to lose heart, reminding us that our present troubles are achieving an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. This aligns with the sermon's call to live with an eternal perspective, understanding that our lives are limited but have eternal consequences. Today, consider how your current priorities reflect an eternal perspective. Are you investing in things that will last beyond this life?
Now, take 10 minutes to seek God in prayer…

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).
- Ask God to help you see your circumstances through His eyes and to live in light of eternity.
- Close by taking 5 minutes to sit in silence, asking God if there is anything else He wants to speak to you today.
