There is only one way to God
 
Today’s devotion is based on Romans 10:1-4, “My friends, how I wish with all my heart that my own people might be saved! How I pray to God for them! I can assure you that they are deeply devoted to God, but their devotion is not based on true knowledge. They have not known the way in which God puts people right with himself, and instead, they have tried to set up their own way; and so they did not submit themselves to God’s way of putting people right. For Christ has brought the Law to an end, so that everyone who believes is put right with God.”

We live in a time where the common belief is that many paths lead to the same God. Please don’t believe a word of it. Paul’s urgent tone today confirms that many people are misled and on the path to destruction rather than the narrow path to God.

The truth is that Jesus is the only way to God. He is the only path because he forgives the sins of sinners and imparts God’s righteousness to all who believe in him. He has placed you on this path. Pray for those who have yet to be enlightened. Point them by your words and actions to Jesus, the only path.

Please pray with me the prayer for today: Spirit of God, lead me on the path Jesus has prepared for all people. Please help me to be bold in proclaiming his promises to others. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
