Our culture constantly tells us: get more—more money, more influence, more security, more success. But in today’s MY Devotional, Dr. Michael Youssef flips that message with Scripture’s radical Truth: the key to a faithful life isn’t acquiring—it’s giving God your all.

When you truly grasp the price of your salvation, generosity stops feeling like duty and becomes gratitude. Dr. Youssef points to Paul’s words in 2 Corinthians 5:14–15, reminding us that Christ didn’t die so we could continue living for ourselves—He died and rose again so we would live for Him. Paul held tightly to two life-changing realities: Jesus took his place at the cross, and God called him as an ambassador to announce the cure for sin. That same Gospel motivation belongs to every believer today.

You’ll also hear why Paul urges Christians to offer themselves as living sacrifices—surrendering heart, mind, time, comfort, and resources to the Lord who is worthy of everything. If you’ve been chasing “success” the world’s way, this episode will recalibrate your priorities and reignite your passion for Christ-centered living.

Prayer: God, You have done so much for me. I want to give You all of me as a living sacrifice. Help me to keep these Truths about Your love for me and Your call on my life at the forefront of my mind so that I honor You rightly. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen.
