Poor in Spirit

The biblical concept of being poor in spirit is foundational to every aspect of the Christian life. Foundational to salvation is a heart-level acknowledgment of our need for a Savior. Foundational to experiencing God’s love is acknowledging our great need of love. Foundational to heavenly peace and joy is an acknowledgment that this world truly offers us neither. If we want all that God in his grace offers, we must pursue a lifestyle of being poor in spirit. May you experience more of the depth of God’s love this week as you discover God’s heart to minister to those desperate for him. Our Scripture for today comes from James 4:6 , and today's worship is Changing Me by Anna Golden. First15 is a daily devotional written and recorded by Craig Denison.

And I need your help. I ask you to prayerfully consider what you are able to give today to help us reach more people with First15. For every $1 you can give today, we can bring a real person into consistent connection with God. That’s a real person spending time daily in worship, reading, and prayer. That’s a real person going into their day with love to give, because they’ve met with Love himself. CLICK HERE TO GIVE Thank you for your continued generosity and prayers. We cannot do this without you. Craig Denison - Author & Founder, First15
