April 25 – Devotion on Ephesians
Eph 5:17: Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is.
In Vs 17, Paul then tells his audience that they must not be foolish. This is again another exhortation to be wise in how they live each day. Paul was aware of the fact that he could lose his life at any moment and how harsh life was at his time. He was also aware of how wasting time and pursuing the wrong things could mean we could miss the will of God. In Romans 12:1-2, Paul had exhorted people to present every part of their life to God and being transformed in the renewing of their mind to know what the will of God was. Today the Bible is God’s compass and guidebook for our lives. It shows God playbook and will for our lives. We are to bring Christ into our world and show love through our lives. To do any else is considered foolish. Prayer is the avenue in which we talk to God. When we read the bible and pray we will not be foolish but understand God’s will.
