Standing Firm in Faith

Oct 24, 2025    Dr. Calvin M. Hooper

Today's Reading: Ephesians 6:10-18; Hebrews 11:1-6


Devotional: Faith is the foundation of our relationship with God. It's not just belief in God's existence, but trust in His character and promises. The author of Hebrews reminds us that without faith, it is impossible to please God. Yet faith is not just a passive quality; it's an active stance that equips us to stand firm against the challenges and temptations of life.


Reflect on the "armor of God" described in Ephesians. Which pieces of this spiritual armor do you need to strengthen in your life? Consider the heroes of faith mentioned in Hebrews 11. What can you learn from their examples of trusting God in difficult circumstances? Today, identify one area where you need to exercise greater faith and take a step of obedience in that direction.
