Day 5: Made Holy by Truth

5-Day Devotional: Living in Unity Through God's Love

Day 5: Made Holy by Truth

Reading: John 17:17-19; 2 Timothy 3:16-17

Devotional: "Make them holy by Your truth. Teach them Your Word, which is truth." Holiness isn't achieved through religious performance—it comes through encountering God's truth. As you study Scripture, the Holy Spirit illuminates your mind, transforms your thinking, and conforms you to Christ's image. This is the living Word at work. Jesus consecrated Himself—set Himself apart as a holy sacrifice—so that you could be made holy. Your sanctification is both immediate (you are declared righteous through Christ) and progressive (you are being transformed daily). The key is consistent engagement with God's Word, inviting the Holy Spirit to deposit divine truth into your heart. Don't just read the Bible—ask God to teach you, to change you, to reveal Himself through it. Let His truth reshape your perspective, your values, and your life.

Reflection Question: What specific area of your life needs to be transformed by God's truth right now? Will you invite the Holy Spirit to work in that area today?

Closing Prayer: Father, thank You that Jesus prayed for me before I ever knew Him. Help me to live as one who belongs to You, not to this world. Send me into the world with Your message of hope. Create unity in Your church through supernatural love. Make me holy through Your truth. I surrender my life to Your mission. In Jesus' name, Amen.
