Reading: Romans 1:8-12; 1 Thessalonians 5:11

Devotional: The believers in Rome were known throughout the world—not for their buildings or programs, but for their faith. What defines your reputation as a believer? Paul's example teaches us that authentic faith is visible and worth celebrating. He didn't just admire their faith from a distance; he prayed for them constantly and longed to strengthen them further. Today, consider how your faith impacts those around you. Are you known for your trust in God? Take time to encourage a fellow believer today. Send a message, make a call, or pray specifically for someone in your church family. Remember, we are called not only to celebrate faith but to help others grow stronger in theirs.
