Make Room 2026 - Day 2

Scripture: Colossians 3:1–4

EXAMINE
In this passage, Paul wants us to understand that we are to set our minds “on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God.” He then goes on to remind us of our new identity in Christ. “For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.” As Christ followers, we should shift our focus to have a heavenly perspective regarding how to live here on earth.

APPLY
We are faced with a never-ending stream of decisions from the moment we wake up each morning. Most of the decisions are as simple as deciding to get a cup of coffee, checking our phone notifications, or even suppressing a yawn at work. These decisions don’t take much thought, and some have become daily habits. As for the bigger decisions we make in our lives, we are called to live and make decisions from a heavenly perspective. We must focus and renew our minds (Romans 12:2). When we can shift our focus, we will make decisions from a kingdom mindset.

PRAY
Take some time today to make a list of big decisions you and your family will be
facing this week or even this month. Spend time reading God’s Word to renew
your mind, focus on a heavenly perspective, and pray for discernment this week.
