1-minute devotion for Monday, 8/25/25
“Then He said to them, “Pay attention to what you hear. By your own standard of measurement [that is, to the extent that you study spiritual truth and apply godly wisdom] it will be measured to you [and you will be given even greater ability to respond]—and more will be given to you besides. For whoever has [a teachable heart], to him more [understanding] will be given; and whoever does not have [a yearning for truth], even what he has will be taken away from him.” Jesus, Mark 4:24-25 AMP
Commentary: “People reap what they sow, even in their reception to the Word. Those who apply Jesus’ words to their lives are given even more spiritual truth, making their lives richer. Those who do nothing with His words lose what little spiritual understanding they already possess.” Jeremiah Study Bible Notes
In His Love, Cindy
