Day 2: Withered Hearts Need Healing
Reading: Jeremiah 17:9-10; Ezekiel 36:26-27
Devotional: The man with the withered hand was visible to all, but the Pharisees' withered hearts remained hidden beneath religious performance. Jeremiah reminds us that the heart is "deceitful above all things." We are skilled at masking our brokenness with busyness, our emptiness with activity. Yet Jesus didn't come to applaud our religious efforts; He came to heal what sin has corrupted. The same power that restored that withered hand can restore your withered heart. God doesn't want your polished exterior; He wants your broken interior. Will you stretch out your heart to Jesus today? Acknowledge the areas where sin has left you crippled. Confession isn't weakness—it's the pathway to supernatural strength and restoration.
