Day 23

In Job 36-37, Elihu describes God’s greatness and purity,
emphasizing His power and holiness. He reminds Job of
God’s might and the awe we should have for Him, a God
who controls the skies and the seasons. In Matthew 15, Jesus
teaches that what defiles a person is not what goes into the
mouth, but what comes out of the heart, for our words and
actions reveal our true nature.

The Holy Spirit works within us to cultivate this purity of heart
that Jesus speaks of, transforming our desires and aligning
them with God’s character. When we surrender to the Spirit,
He cleanses our hearts and enables us to live lives that reflect
God’s holiness and love.

Today, ask the Spirit to reveal any areas in your heart that
need cleansing. Invite Him to purify your intentions, so that
your words and actions reflect the purity and holiness of God,
drawing others closer to Him.

Today’s Readings:
Job 36 • Job 37
