Battle Drill Daily Devotional (Video) | Christian 5-Minute Bible Devotions

Friday 15 August 2025

Scripture Reference: Luke 12:38 (NLT)

Even when you feel late, distant, or distracted, God’s grace is already at your door - waiting, knocking, and still calling your name.

#BattleDrillDevotional #GodsGrace #FaithInRealLife

In this episode of the Battle Drill Devotional, we reflect on Jesus’ parable in Luke 12:38, where he describes servants staying ready for their master’s return - even in the middle of the night. But this is not just a call to spiritual alertness. It’s a picture of God’s relentless, never-tiring grace. You may feel like you’ve missed the moment - too busy, too ashamed, too far gone - but Jesus reminds us that it’s never too late. His grace still shows up. Again and again.

The gospel is not about climbing a ladder to reach God - it’s about the God who comes down, who keeps showing up, even in the quiet hours when we feel we’ve missed our chance. In The Salvation Army’s daily work - from food banks to street outreach - we see this grace meet people right where they are. It finds the exhausted, the angry, the addicted, the lonely - and says, “I’m still here.”

You don’t need to come perfectly. You don’t need all the answers. You only need to open the door.

Call to Action:

Pause today and ask: where is God’s grace already meeting you? Let this episode help you recognise it - and respond with a simple yes.
