Inside Out Devotionals

Then Joseph had another dream,  and he told it to his brothers:  “I had another dream, and this time the sun and moon and eleven stars  were bowing down to me."  Genesis 37:9 Much of what we dream as we sleep results from our daily routine, thoughts and worries. But d reams can also be another form of heavenly language.  Dreams prepare our hearts to things that will come to pass in our future.  The bible is full of examples of people who were told about future situations through dreams as they slept.  Joseph, one of the sons of Jacob, at the age of 17 started having some dreams. The content of all those dreams were basically that he was in a position of authority- even over his own family. That was definitely something not reasonable to think of or likely to happen considering that he was the youngest in the family. Joseph became hated by his brothers and was called a "dreamer". But his dreams came from God and God doesn´t know boundries, nor i

"His divine power has given us everything we need  for a godly life trough our knowledge of him  who called us  by his own glory and goodness."  2 Peter 1:3 The bible tells us the story of how God delivered his people, Israel, from slavery in Egypt through a young guy called Moses. Moses had some traumatic experiences in Egypt that caused him to flee to a desert and dwell there for 40 years after killing an egyptian.  From the beginning of Moses life, God already had a plan for him! I mean, Moses was already IN God´s plans of deliverance for his people and the fact that Moses killed someone didn´t cause God to change his plans.  But as for Moses, he was the one hesitating to say a straight yes to God´s mission for him. Moses was primarily aware of his lacks instead of God´s provision. He would say that he wasn´t qualified for the "job" for he could not speak right, people would doubt he was commissioned for that, he wasn´t sure in his heart

"Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him and gave him the name that is above every name :  that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth ..."  Philippians 2:9-10 The Reputation Institute (www.reputationinstitute.com) is responsible for the largest global study of corporate reputations. This study is released every year and its result is a list of the most reputable companies in the world. For instance, in 2016, the TOP 1 company in the globe was: Rolex. In 2015, BMW topped list. Ok, my point is: whenever we HEAR any of these NAMES, we KNOW that HIGH QUALITY is related to it. We KNOW that having any product made by these companies is a sign of STATUS, besides guaranteed SATISFACTION. The bible says that God has given his son Jesus A NAME that is ABOVE ALL NAMES. If we think highly of such natural human brands, how much high should we THINK about this name: JESUS.  If the NAME OF JESU

"Therefore in anyone is in Christ,  he is a new creature:  old things are passed away;  behold,  all things are become new"  2 Cor 5 :17 Most of people have a list of new year´s resolutions but changes in our lives do not come out of our own decision and effort to make things different. Changes in our life come from the TRANSFORMATION that happens within which is only possible through FAITH IN JESUS who is ABLE to change things we can´t. Things around us start to change when we begin to SEE things in a different perspective.  "The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are healthy, your whole body will be full of light" Matthew 6:22 This goes beyond thinking positive. It is thinking and seeing things the way JESUS thinks and sees them. Jesus himself did that! He once said "I speak that which I have seen with my Father" (John 8:38).  As we spend time with Jesus, reading His Word, speaking to Him throughout the day, etc
