Take Me Higher
Reading: Matthew 28:16-20; Acts 1:6-11
Devotional: Jesus called His disciples to the mountain, elevated their perspective and commissioned them as messengers. He didn't leave them comfortable in their newfound peace rather He sent them back down with purpose.
This is the pattern, God calls you higher personally so you can go lower collectively, reaching those still trapped in darkness. You cannot take someone where you haven't been. If you remain in your low place, you have no testimony of God's delivering power. But when you climb higher through worship, prayer, and pursuing God's presence, you gain a view of the harvest field. That field is full of souls waiting for someone to show them the way up.
Today, recognize that your elevation has a purpose beyond your personal comfort. Don't go to higher ground alone, bring others with you. Let your worship become a witness, your peace a testimony, your joy an invitation to come higher. Ask today, “Lord, Take Me Higher!”
Reflection: Who needs to hear your story? Who's watching your life, waiting to see if God is real?
