Navigating Modern Technology

Modern technology moves fast, influencing our habits. It can connect us, inform us, and serve good purposes, yet it can also crowd our thoughts and fragment our attention. God is not opposed to progress, but He cares deeply about what shapes our hearts. Wisdom asks not only what technology can do, but what it is doing to us.

There is a prophetic call to remain led rather than driven. When we submit our screens, schedules, and platforms to God, technology becomes a tool instead of a master. Discernment grows when we pause, pray, and choose intention over impulse. God’s Spirit helps us use modern tools without losing ancient truths.

We are reminded to: “Look carefully then how you walk, live purposefully and worthily and accurately” (Ephesians 5:15 AMP). God invites us to walk thoughtfully in every age. When we let Him lead, clarity replaces confusion and peace governs progress.
