Devotion Title: Only God Can Satisfy
Scripture:
“Why spend money on what is not bread, and your labor on what does not satisfy? Listen, listen to me, and eat what is good, and you will delight in the richest of fare.”
—Isaiah 55:2 (NIV)
Reflection:
We live in a world full of noise, ambition, and endless striving. We chase success, relationships, recognition—believing these things will finally fill the emptiness inside. But no matter how much we accumulate, something still feels missing. Why? Because our souls weren’t created to be satisfied by temporary things.
Only God can fill the void in our hearts. His love, His peace, His presence—these are the things our spirits truly hunger for. When we turn away from the world’s empty promises and lean into Him, we find lasting joy and deep rest.
Prayer:
Lord, I’m tired of striving for things that don’t satisfy. Fill me with what only You can give. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
Takeaway:
Pause today and ask yourself: What am I chasing that’s leaving me empty? Surrender it to God and let Him be the source of your satisfaction.
