A Summer To Remember: The Cup of Sanctification - Day 1

Reading: Exodus 6:6-7; John 8:34-36

Devotional: God's first promise to His people was liberation: "I will bring you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians." Many of us carry invisible yokes—addictions, unforgiveness, toxic patterns—that control our lives. We know these things aren't good for us, yet we feel powerless to break free. The good news is that salvation isn't about cleaning yourself up first; it's about coming to Jesus so He can clean you up. You don't get out of Egypt by your own strength. Jesus said anyone who sins is a slave, but whom the Son sets free is free indeed. Today, identify one yoke you've been carrying. Confess it to God and ask Him to begin the process of bringing you out from under it. Remember: you can't save yourself, but He already has.
