Devotion Week - Day 2


Heart of a Champion Devotional

Day 2: Teacher

 When he went ashore he saw a great crowd, and he had compassion on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd. And he began to teach them many things.” Mark 6:34

Definition of Teacher: one who instructs

How did you learn to throw a football or shoot a basketball? How do you know what plays to run? How do you understand the rules of the game?

Someone has to teach you. Your parent or coach showed and helped you. You may have watched an older sibling or perhaps a friend explained the rules. In order to play a sport, there’s a lot you need to learn. The same is true in life and thankfully, we have Jesus, the greatest teacher, to help us.

Jesus will teach us how to love (John 13:34), serve (John 13:5), obey (Philippians 2:8) and so much more. He will instruct us about right and wrong. He will guide us with His words. He will coach us through life. Learn from Him today.

Who has been your favorite teacher/coach? Why?



What would you like to learn? Who can you ask to be your teacher?



Jesus, thank you for teaching me. Help me to never stop learning. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

Work-Out – Read Matthew 5:1-12. This is a teaching of Jesus. Share what you learn.
