Joyce Meyer: Promises for Your Everyday Life - a Daily DevotionalSample

Carnal Christians and Spiritual Christians There are two kinds of Christians, and you have to choose which one you will be. Will you be a carnal Christian or a spiritual Christian? A carnal Christian is a people-pleaser who cares more about what people think than about obeying God. They are immature, operating out of their emotions and doing whatever they feel like saying and doing. They are usually in strife, discontent, easily offended and lacking peace. There are far too many Christians living this way today. But you can be different. You can be a spiritual Christian who diligently follows after the desires of the Spirit. You can be that Christian who will feed their spirit with the Word every day. You can be the Christian who will let God into every area of your life, not just church on Sundays. I urge you today to make a full-time commitment to follow Christ. Let the Lord into everything you do. Walk with integrity, humility and peace. Get along with others. Display the fruit of a spiritual Christian and enjoy the favor of God. Make the choice today. Will you be a carnal Christian or a spiritual Christian? Prayer Starter: God, I don't want to be a carnal Christian, always led by the flesh. Instead, I want to be led by the Holy Spirit, living a life that pleases You. I choose today to be a spiritual Christian, not a carnal one.
