Sermon: Joy- Tuesday's Devotional

God's Upside-Down Kingdom
Reading: Isaiah 55:8-9; 1 Samuel 16:7; 1 Corinthians 1:27-29

God's ways consistently challenge our assumptions about power, importance, and value. He chose a feeding trough over a palace, shepherds over scholars, obscurity over prestige. This pattern runs throughout Scripture—God looks at hearts, not appearances. He chooses the lowly to shame the proud. This Christmas story confronts our cultural obsession with status, wealth, and recognition. Where are you seeking significance? God invites you to find true worth not in worldly measures but in His perspective. The Messiah came humbly because true power is found in surrender, not dominance. Let this reality reshape how you view success, influence, and what truly matters in life.
