DEVOTIONAL

Your creativity is not something you perform to earn approval. It is something you offer to honor God. Colossians 3:23 teaches you to work wholeheartedly as though you were doing it for the Lord Himself. When your creativity is surrendered to God, the pressure to impress people begins to break. You no longer create for applause. You create from presence.

God cares deeply about what you create, not because He needs your art but because He values your heart. When you dedicate your creativity to Him, He shapes your motives, guards your process, and guides your impact. Your art becomes an offering instead of an obligation. Your work becomes worship.

When your creativity belongs to God, you become free from the weight of perfection, the fear of rejection, and the desire for validation. You create from confidence instead of insecurity. You follow His leading rather than chasing trends. You let Him define success rather than relying on numbers.

Today, dedicate your creativity to God again. Open your hands and release the pressure, the expectations, and the self imposed standards. God can do more with surrendered creativity than you could ever do with controlled creativity. Your art belongs to Him, and that is where it has always belonged.

Scripture: Colossians 3:23 TPT

Put your heart and soul into every activity you do, as though you are doing it for the Lord himself and not merely for others.
