Good Morning: A Minimal DevotionalSample

Accountability

Good morning.

We all need to answer to our choices. We all need to open up about our struggles. We all need to be honest. We’re better for it. When we are honest with ourselves, someone trustworthy, and the Lord, we will experience His grace, healing, comfort, and freedom. I assure you that God will heal your hurts if you reveal them. I’m reminded of Namaan in the Bible. It says he was a “...man of valor but a leper.” In other words, a powerful leader on the outside, but under the armor, he was sick and decaying. He was broken in a hidden place. It was only when he was honest with himself, someone else, and the Lord that was he healed.

My prayer today is that we admit our weak areas to ourselves, we choose at least one person who will know everything, and we ask God for His healing touch. Let’s not believe the lie that we have to stay in hiding. I promise you that you’re not alone.

In this moment, what specific area will you reach out for accountability in?
