Inspire Within Devotion


Scripture

“Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad in the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.”

Matthew 7:13-14, NIV

Encouragement

Believing in Christ and following Him is the only way to eternal life. This Scripture describes the way to eternal life as small and narrow. It does not mean that it is hard to become a Christian. Instead, it means that there is only one way to eternal life with God, and few will follow that way. Because Jesus lived a pure life and died for our sins, we can have eternal life with God, the Father! Let’s follow the way of Christ and not the popular way of the world.

Reflection

Do you know that the only way to eternal life with God is through Christ? Read John 14:6 and Romans 10:9-10. For further study about Salvation, read these verses in Romans: 3:23, 5:8, 10:9-10, 6:3-4. Are you following the ways of God or the ways of the world? God’s way does not follow the ways of the world. 

Quote

"Believing in Christ and following Him is the only way to eternal life."
