11 18.25 Devotion from the Bible You App

I am a work in progress, y'all! And so are you.

We are saved in an instant.
But what God is doing and will do in us is a lifetime process.

Our thought processes don't change overnight, our bad habits don't just go away and self discipline and control don't just happen. He empowers us with the tools (His Word, prayer, the Holy Spirit and self discipline) but we have to TRAIN and PRACTICE with these tools consistently which takes time, dedication and even endurance. In doing so we will see a shift in our mindset, habits and so much more.

Power, Love, and Discipline

One of the miracles of salvation is that when we have faith in Christ, God not only saves us—He also gives us the power to live according to His will. Your life in Christ is one that is empowered by the Holy Spirit living within you.

This is a great gift, but a big shift. It often takes time to change how we think and act. We may have bad habits that take hard work to correct, or patterns of thought that are challenging to break.

Thankfully, God promises to be with us and to empower us to make these changes in our life. When Paul is writing to his mentee Timothy, he encourages him to continue to develop the gift that God has given to him. While we are saved in an instant, it takes a lifetime to develop and work out what God is doing inside of us.

Paul reminds Timothy that God’s Spirit does not give us fear or cowardice. Those things are tools of the devil who is trying to keep us from God. But the Spirit of God empowers us with confidence in Him. He gives us the power to live out the purposes of God in our life. This power is one that we need to continually remember as we face challenges.

The Spirit of God also empowers us to love others. It can be difficult to love people, especially those who may have hurt us. But God promises to give us His power and love so that we can be a light to everyone around us.

God’s Spirit also empowers us with self-discipline. We won’t experience spiritual change and growth if we don’t train and practice—but that takes time, dedication, and endurance. We need to be consistent in doing the things that God asks us to do, including reading God’s Word and talking to Him. Thankfully, when we belong to God, He helps us. He gives us the strength, stamina, and soundness of mind to build habits that help us become more like Him.

So take some time today to talk with God. Ask Him to empower you by His Spirit toward confidence, love, and self-discipline. Consider how God is leading you to change the way you live. As you do that, remember that God doesn’t give us fear. He fills us with love because He wants us to experience a confident relationship with Him.

Bees Hold a Hidden Wisdom
When a beehive loses its queen—the one life-giver and unifier of their intricate society—it faces a quiet catastrophe. The rhythm of the colony slows. No new eggs mean no future, and within weeks, extinction looms.
But the bees don’t fall into chaos. They don’t wait for rescue.
Instead, they act—swiftly, intelligently, instinctively. What follows is one of nature’s most remarkable responses to crisis.
It begins with an unexpected decision.
From among the countless ordinary larvae—destined to become ordinary worker bees—a few are chosen. They aren’t special. They weren’t born different. But their destiny is about to change.
These chosen few are fed something extraordinary: royal jelly—a potent, nutrient-rich secretion from specialized nurse bees. It’s more than food; it’s a signal. A biological switch.
Fed exclusively on this substance, one larva’s body begins to transform. It grows larger, stronger. Its lifespan extends nearly twentyfold. It will no longer serve. It will reign.
The queen is not born. She is made.
This isn’t about superior genes. It’s about nourishment, care, and environment. If humans could do the same—take any child and, with the right support, cultivate greatness—imagine the possibilities.
Crisis doesn’t end life. It creates leaders.
The larva’s transformation doesn’t just save her. It rescues the entire hive. As a new queen, she restores the colony’s order, fertility, and rhythm. A future once threatened is rebuilt—stronger, more resilient.
A quiet lesson in resilience
In their silence, bees teach us: when everything seems lost, what’s needed isn’t panic. It’s vision. Choice. Compassion. Leadership.
Their world reminds us that greatness isn’t born—it’s nurtured. That even in the darkest times, with the right support, someone ordinary can become extraordinary.
Because sometimes, the most powerful leaders rise from the most uncertain moments.
