Devotional: Ted Lasso and the wisdom from the Word

 Day 2: Believe

Ted Lasso Quote: “Believe.”


Proverbs 3:5–6 (NIV): “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.”


Observation: Genuine belief is rooted in trust. Faith looks beyond what is seen and rests in God’s wisdom and direction.


Challenge: Identify one area of uncertainty in your life and choose to place it fully in God’s hands today.


Prayer: Father, give me the courage to believe even when I can’t see, and to trust Your guidance over my own. Amen.

Devotional: Ted Lasso and wisdom from the Word

Day 1: Be Curious, Not Judgmental

Ted Lasso Quote: “Be curious, not judgmental.”

Proverbs 18:13 (NIV): “To answer before listening—that is folly and shame.”


Observation: Curiosity opens doors to understanding. People like to know they are being heard. When listening takes priority over quick conclusions, relationships grow deeper and richer.


Challenge: Slow down in one conversation today and ask at least two genuine questions before offering your own opinion.


Prayer: Lord, help me to listen with patience and approach others with curiosity, rather than judgment. Amen.

Devotional: God’s Fire: Judgment, Truth, and Urgency of Now.

Day 5 – The Urgency of Now

Read: Luke 12:49–56; Psalm 82

“The fire has already come — it began at the Cross.”

Observation:

The fire Jesus spoke of has already been lit — at the Cross. He bore God’s judgment so we could walk in freedom.

Now He calls us to respond with urgency. Psalm 82 shows that those with influence and power are accountable. Those who don’t act for justice or truth will fall.

Jesus isn’t calling us to a passive faith — but to an active, courageous walk that recognizes the spiritual urgency of our times.

Challenge:

What step of obedience or boldness have you been delaying? What is God asking you to act on today?

Prayer:

Lord Jesus, thank You for enduring the fire of judgment for me.

Let me not waste the mercy You’ve given.

Awaken my heart. Strengthen my resolve.

I choose to follow You today — not for comfort, but for truth.

Amen.

Devotional: God’s Fire: Judgment, Truth, and the Urgency of Now

Day 4 – Let the Fire Clarify Your Loyalty

Read: Luke 12:49–56; Jeremiah 23:29

“Is not my word like fire...?” – Jeremiah 23:29

Observation:

God’s Word tests us — not to harm, but to reveal what’s truly there.

In a world filled with competing loyalties and diluted convictions, Jesus’ fire clarifies who belongs to Him.

It's not enough to believe in Him culturally — following Jesus will cost you something: comfort, approval, maybe even relationships.

The fire separates the committed from the casual.

Challenge:

Where is your loyalty being tested right now? How are you responding?

Prayer:

Jesus, You are the fire that purifies and the truth that divides.

Help me choose You — not once, but daily.

Refine my loyalty until I’m fully Yours.

Amen.

Devotional: Fire, Judgment, Truth and Ugency for Now.

Day 3 – Discern the Times

Read: Luke 12:54–56; Psalm 82

“You know how to interpret the appearance of the earth and the sky. How is it that you don't know how to interpret this present time?” – Luke 12:56

“How long will you defend the unjust and show partiality to the wicked?” – Psalm 82:2

Observation:

Jesus calls out a dangerous spiritual blindness: people could predict the weather, but couldn’t see the signs of God’s movement in their time.

Psalm 82 highlights the failure of leaders to uphold justice — they were called “gods” because of their authority, yet they abused it. They should’ve discerned the times and acted justly, but they were corrupt and blind.

Jesus invites us to recognize the moment — not just politically or culturally, but spiritually.

Challenge:

Are you aware of what God is doing in this generation? Are you spiritually awake, or distracted by the world’s noise?

Prayer:

Father, open my eyes to the times I live in.

Awaken me from apathy.

Help me walk in Your justice and see with Your wisdom.

Amen.
