Why do human philosophies keep promising freedom—yet leave people more anxious, confused, and broken?
In today’s MY Devotional, Dr. Michael Youssef traces the root of our modern spiritual crisis back to the first temptation in the garden: Adam and Eve believed Satan’s lie and chose rebellion over God’s perfect wisdom. That same pattern still drives every ideology that elevates human desire above God—and it’s why man-made “solutions” always fail.
But there is real hope: only God’s wisdom can repair what sin has destroyed. And God hasn’t left us guessing. Through the Holy Spirit, believers have access to the mind of God—yet Dr. Youssef reminds us that the Spirit’s guidance isn’t experienced through information alone, but through surrender.
You’ll hear why:
daily yielding to the Holy Spirit is essential for clarity and spiritual strength,
ignoring the Spirit grieves Him—and persistent disobedience can quench His voice,
many can read the Bible and still miss its meaning without the Spirit’s illumination, and
it’s never too late to invite the Spirit back into the “driver’s seat” of your life.
