Day 5 – Cleansed for a Purpose
Theme: Consumed by Purpose
Scripture Focus: Romans 12:1–2
Bible Passage: Nehemiah 13:23–29
📖 Please open your Bible and read the full passage.
Historical Background
Sa huling bahagi ng kanyang mission, nakita ni Nehemiah na ang ilan sa mga Israelita ay nag-asawa ng mga dayuhang hindi sumasamba sa Diyos.
Ang epekto?
- Nawawala ang purity ng worship,
- Nabubura ang spiritual identity,
- At naaapektuhan ang susunod na henerasyon.
Hindi nanahimik si Nehemiah. Kumilos siya.
👉 He confronted. He cleansed. He restored.
Ang focus niya ay hindi hate—kundi holiness.
Hindi ito tungkol sa legalism—kundi alignment sa layunin ng Diyos.
Devotional Reflection
When you’re consumed by God’s purpose, you won’t allow anything—no matter how “harmless” it seems—to weaken your devotion.
🔥 Holiness isn’t about being “better” than others.
It’s about being aligned with your calling.
What you tolerate will eventually shape your heart.
So if something (or someone) is pulling you away from full obedience, maybe it’s time to cleanse the compromise.
Let go of what contaminates.
Keep what fuels the fire.
Panalangin
Panginoon,
Linisin N’yo po ako mula sa anumang nagpapahina sa aking debosyon.
Tulungan N’yo akong mamuhay nang may kabanalan—hindi para magpakitang-tao, kundi para masunod ang Inyong layunin.
Amen.
Reflection Question
May bagay o relasyon ba sa buhay mo na unti-unting humihila sa’yo palayo sa buong pagsunod sa Diyos?
Will you let it go, or let it grow?
Faith Declaration
I will guard my heart and relationships.
I am called, chosen, and set apart for God’s purpose.
