What are you clinging to that’s keeping you from peace?
#BattleDrillDevotional #LetGoAndLive #JesusWay
Today’s Battle Drill Daily Devotional asks a tough but freeing question: What are you holding too tightly? Drawing from Philippians 2, we reflect on Jesus’ example of surrender - how he let go of privilege to embrace humility. When we cling to control, comfort, or image, we end up carrying burdens we were never meant to bear.
Jesus invites us to lay it down. To trust his way of downward movement. This devotional offers a pastoral challenge: real life starts when we stop grasping and start trusting. That’s where freedom begins.
Scripture: Philippians 2:5–7 (NLT)
Call to Action: What can you release today that would make more room for God?
