In today's episode, we delve into 2 Corinthians 5:20, exploring the profound role we play as ambassadors for Christ. Dr. Pete emphasizes that God is making His appeal through us, urging us to reflect on this powerful truth.

We discuss the Greek word "parakleo," which means to call someone to come closer, highlighting that our mission is a personal and urgent invitation to others. As ambassadors, we carry the authority of Christ and are tasked with proclaiming His message through both our actions and words.

Join us as we unpack the significance of being a good ambassador for Jesus, and remember, God is making His appeal through you. Tune in tomorrow for another uplifting episode of The Daily Devo, and visit PastorPete.org for more insights.

Today we are in 2 Corinthians chapter 5.

Welcome to another edition of The Daily Devo with Dr. Pete. In today's episode, we continue our exploration of Isaiah 30:1, diving deeper into the theme of rebellion and the lessons we can learn from Judah's experience.

Dr. Pete outlines five key lessons to help us navigate our own struggles with rebellion: trusting in God's plan, avoiding rebellion, seeking God's counsel, being wary of worldly alliances, and preventing sin from compounding. Each lesson is rooted in the context of Judah's alliance with Egypt and their deviation from God's will.

Join us as we unpack these insights and learn how to apply them to our lives, fostering obedience, peace, and hope. Don't forget to share this episode with friends and connect with Dr. Pete at PastorPete.org.

Let's talk about rebellious children! Welcome to The Daily Devo with Dr. Pete Pawelek. In this episode, Dr. Pete delves into Isaiah 30:1, focusing on the rebellious nature of Judah as they seek alliances against God's will. Instead of turning to God, they rely on Egypt for protection, highlighting their misguided plans and misplaced trust.

Dr. Pete draws a parallel to our own lives, asking if we, too, have ever acted independently from God's guidance. He emphasizes the importance of placing our faith, hope, and trust in God alone rather than in worldly entities like politics, leaders, or doctors.

Today, I reflected on Deuteronomy 31:8, where Moses reassures Joshua that the Lord will always be with him. This powerful message is a reminder that even in moments of loneliness, we are never truly alone because God is always with us.

Throughout the Bible, many leaders felt alone—Jacob, Joseph, Elijah, Jeremiah, Nehemiah, Christ, and Paul. Feeling alone is a common experience, especially for leaders. However, Moses' words remind us to not be afraid or discouraged because God's presence is a constant.

Amy Weatherly's words offer further encouragement, reminding us that not everyone will like or include us, but it's essential to focus on those who uplift and support us. Your energy and heart are precious, and it's okay to protect them.

If you're feeling lonely, remember Moses' reassurance: "The Lord is the one who will go before you. He will be with you. He will not leave you or abandon you. Do not be afraid or discouraged." God is with you, and you are precious to Him.
