THE SURROGATE JOURNEY: BIRTHING PURPOSE THROUGH OTHERS.  PART 3: THE WEIGHT OF THE WOMB — WHEN CARRYING GETS COMPLICATED Genesis 16:5–6 Then Sarai said to Abram, ‘You are responsible for the wrong I am suffering. I put my servant in your arms, and now that she knows she is pregnant, she despises me.’ Then Sarai mistreated Hagar; so she fled from her.” (NIV) šŸ” Quick Recap: In Part 2 , we met Hagar, the Egyptian servant chosen by Sarai to carry her child. Though not her dream, not her plan, and not her baby—she became the carrier of a promise she didn’t initiate. We learned how sometimes we are called to be the “other woman” in someone else’s destiny story—carrying, serving, interceding, and pushing someone else’s dream forward. šŸ¤° The Blessing that Brought Bitterness Hagar became pregnant. She was carrying the long-awaited seed. She should have been celebrated. But instead… she was mistreated. The one who chose her now chased her. The one who needed her now neglected her. The woman...

THE UNSTAINED GARMENT: CHOOSING PURITY OVER COMPROMISE PART 19 - FINAL LAP

THE UNSTAINED GARMENT: CHOOSING PURITY OVER COMPROMISE PART 19 - FINAL LAP 

Revelation 3:4-5

4. “Yet there are some in the church in Sardis who have not soiled their clothes with evil. They will walk with me in white, for they are worthy.

5. All who are victorious will be clothed in white. I will never erase their names from the Book of Life, but I will announce before my Father and his angels that they are mine


Welcome to Part 19 of our series, The Unstained Garment: Choosing Purity Over Compromise.

In this final lap, we focus on Jesus Christ: The Ultimate Example—the perfect model of purity, perseverance, and unwavering faith. His life, sacrifice, and victory over sin inspire us to follow His example and live a life pleasing to God.


Jesus Christ: The Ultimate Example

Jesus valued obedience to the Father above all, enduring the cross for the joy set before Him (Hebrews 12:2). His life reflected perfect holiness, complete submission to God’s will, and unwavering love for humanity.


Jesus Christ is the ultimate standard of purity and faithfulness. He faced the greatest trials, endured rejection, and overcame temptation, yet remained without sin (Hebrews 4:15). His sacrificial love and obedience to God’s will, even unto death, set the perfect example for believers.


Just as the ermine guards its spotless coat, Jesus kept His spiritual “garment” pure, securing our salvation through His righteousness. His life calls us to pursue holiness, trust in God’s plan, and stand firm in our faith, no matter the cost. His victory over sin reminds us that we, too, can overcome through His power at work within us.


Jesus’ life shows that true purity comes from complete dependence on God and a heart set on His will. By following His example, we can live a life that honors Him, even in a world filled with challenges.


REFLECTION:

In what areas of your life do you feel tempted to compromise? What would it look like to follow Jesus’ example more closely in those areas? Take time to reflect on how His unwavering purity and obedience challenge and inspire your own walk.



Choose one specific action today that mirrors the example of Christ—whether it’s extending forgiveness, resisting temptation, or obeying God in a difficult area. Let His life shape your decisions as you pursue an unstained walk with God.


PRAYER: 

Lord Jesus, thank You for being the perfect example of purity and faithfulness. Help me to follow in Your footsteps, living a life that reflects Your love and truth. Amen

THE STORY: A FRIEND FACED WITH A HARD DECISION Romans 1:11-12 (NIV) "I long to see you so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to make you strong—that is, that you and I may be mutually encouraged by each other’s faith. Welcome to Part 8 of our Series, Jumpstarting Your Life: The Power of Divine Connection.  In Part 7 , we saw how my landlady’s son, who had once been stranded, later became a helper to another driver stuck in the mud . We learned that helping others after receiving help is a key principle of life , and sometimes, we must recognize when we need assistance instead of struggling alone. But what if the real issue isn’t about getting help but knowing when to move on? PART 8: WHEN IT’S TIME FOR AN UPGRADE—LETTING GO OF THE OLD TO EMBRACE THE NEW THE STORY: A FRIEND FACED WITH A HARD DECISION I have a friend named Kwame who had been driving an old car for years . It wasn’t just any car—it had been his first car, filled with memories. One day, after heavy rain, he...

JUMPSTARTING YOUR LIFE—THE POWER OF DIVINE CONNECTIONS PART 1: WHEN LIFE REFUSES TO START

THE STORY: A CAR THAT WOULDN’T START Romans 1:11-12 (NIV ) "I long to see you so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to make you strong—that is, that you and I may be mutually encouraged by each other’s faith." One early morning, I was in my room when I noticed my landlady’s son struggling with his car. No matter how many times he turned the key, it refused to start. Minutes later, a co-tenant arrived with a car battery, connected it to his, and in seconds— boom ! The engine roared to life. It hit me: Sometimes, we need external help to restart what isn’t working in our lives. HAVE YOU EVER FELT STUCK? Just like that dead battery , life can sometimes feel like it just won’t start: Spiritually – Your passion for prayer and the Word feels drained. (“ Apart from Me, you can do nothing.” – John 15:5) Physically – You’re constantly exhausted, no matter how much you rest. (“Even youths grow weary, but those who wait on the Lord renew their strength.” – Isaiah 40:30-31...

DEALING WITH DIABETIC WOUNDS – A BALANCED DEVOTIONAL SERIES PART 1: RECOGNIZING THE WOUND – THE FIRST STEP To HEALING Revelation 2:4-5 "You have forsaken your first love. Remember the height from which you have fallen! Repent and do the things you did at first."  Not every wound bleeds. Some deteriorate quietly beneath the surface—unseen, unfelt, and unspoken—until it's too late . Just like a diabetic wound that looks minor at first but spreads when ignored , many of life's deepest issues— spiritual, emotional, physical, and even national—start small . But delay is dangerous . Healing begins when we are humble and honest enough to recognize the wound. Key Scripture: " You have forsaken your first love. Remember the height from which you have fallen! Repent and do the things you did at first." – Revelation 2:4-5 LIFE APPLICATION: Two years ago, a friend called me, asking for blood donation for his father-in-law, who was scheduled for a leg amputation at the 3...
