Are You Seeking God Above All Else?
Knowing about God and following Him are two very different things. Many people hear the gospel, understand what it means to be a Christian, yet fail to live it out. A life fully surrendered to Christ means actively practicing faith, obedience, and devotion—not just knowing about Him, but pursuing Him in everything.
Today, reflect on how you are living out your faith. Is there a gap between what you know and what you practice? Ask God to deepen your commitment, so that your walk with Him is not just in word but in action. Let your life reflect your devotion to Him.
"But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves."
— James 1:22
Brief Biographical Summary
George Whitefield (1714–1770) was a powerful preacher during the Great Awakening, known for his passionate evangelism. His sermons reached thousands across England and America, calling people to true, active faith in Christ.
Fun fact: Whitefield’s voice was so strong that he could preach to crowds of 20,000 people without amplification, and even Benjamin Franklin marveled at his ability to project his words so clearly.
