Pauline Epistles Bible Reading Plan

Prayer

Lord Jesus, Thank You for the gift of the true Gospel and for calling me by Your grace. Quiet every competing voice that distorts Your truth, and help me to live for Your approval above all else. Open my heart to receive Your Word today with humility and boldness. In Your name, Amen.

Introduction

What Voices shape the way you live and what you believe? In a world full of opinions, influences, and pressures, it’s easy to drift sometimes even unknowingly from the core truth of the Gospel. Galatians 1 meets us with clarity and conviction. Paul passionately reminds the believers in Galatia that the Gospel isn’t something we adapt or rework to fit in. It’s a message from God, revealed through Jesus Christ, full of grace and power.

His own story is proof: God called him, transformed him, and sent him not based on his résumé, but by grace. Paul’s journey reminds us that we, too, are called not to please people but to live from the approval of the One who called us. When we hold fast to the Gospel and God’s calling over our lives, we find clarity, boldness, and freedom. This chapter is a challenge but also a Beautiful invitation: return to what is true, and live with your heart anchored in God’s grace.

Key Takeaways

• The Gospel is not created or shaped by people — it comes from God alone.

• Our calling is rooted in God’s grace, not in our past or in others’ validation.

• Seeking human approval can compromise our faithfulness to Christ.

• God delights in transforming unlikely people for His purposes.

Question for Reflection

Am I living to reflect the true Gospel of Christ, or have I allowed the desire for human approval to shape what I believe and how I live?
