September 6th 2025 – I Trust You Jesus

Leave a reply

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding.” (Proverbs 3:5-6)

In a world filled with uncertainty and chaos, the invitation to trust in Jesus stands as a beacon of hope. Proverbs 3:5–6 reminds us to trust in Jesus with all our heart and not to depend on our understanding ot the situation. These words resonate deeply, encouraging us to release the burdens we often carry and to lean into His wisdom rather than our limited perspectives.

Trusting Jesus means surrendering our need for control and allowing Him to guide our steps ahead. It’s easy to look back, to dwell on past mistakes or missed opportunities, but Jesus calls us to look forward with faith. John 14:1 reassures us, “Don’t let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust also in me.” In moments of doubt or fear, we can find peace in His presence, knowing that He holds our future.

Faith is not merely an intellectual agreement; it’s a profound relationship built on trust. As Galatians 2:16 states, “Yet we know that a person is made right with God by faith in Jesus Christ.” This faith liberates us from the weight of the law and invites us into a life defined by grace. When we put our trust in Him, we are made right with God, not by our own efforts, but through His unending love.

Consider the areas of your life where you may be struggling to trust Jesus completely. What fears or doubts are holding you back? Take a moment to pray, inviting God to strengthen your faith and to help you release those burdens.

As you go about your day, remember that trusting Jesus is a daily choice. Each step forward is an opportunity to embrace His guidance and to leave behind what weighs you down. In Him, you can find strength, hope, and a future filled with promise. Trust in the Lord, for He is faithful!

“Trusting in Jesus means embracing the unknown with faith, knowing that every step I take is guided by His unwavering love.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, As I come before You today, I want to thank You for Your unwavering presence in my life. I acknowledge that trusting You fully can be a challenge, especially when the path ahead seems unclear. Yet, I am reminded of Your promises and the assurance that You have a plan for me. Help me to let go of my fears and anxieties, and to place my trust in You completely.

Lord, I pray for the strength to surrender my understanding and to lean solely on Your wisdom. Teach me to seek Your will in every aspect of my life—my relationships, my work, and my dreams. May I find comfort in knowing that You are guiding my steps, even when I cannot see the way forward.

I ask for Your peace to fill my heart, especially during times of uncertainty. Remind me that I do not have to carry my burdens alone; I can lay them at Your feet. Help me to trust that You are always working for my good, even when circumstances seem overwhelming.

As I navigate the challenges of life, may I be a reflection of Your love and grace to those around me. Equip me to encourage others to trust in You, just as I am learning to do. Let my faith be a testament to Your goodness and faithfulness.

Thank You, Lord, for the gift of faith in Jesus Christ, through whom I am made right with You. Help me to remember that my worth is not defined by my achievements or failures, but by Your unconditional love.

In moments of doubt, remind me of Your promise, that I should not let my heart be troubled. Instead, let me find peace in trusting You and in Your perfect plan for my life.

I place my trust in You today and every day, knowing that You are with me every step of the way. Thank You for loving me, guiding me, and for the hope I have in You. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.

August 22nd 2025 – Trusting God With Our Children

Leave a reply

“Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it.” (Proverbs 22:6)

As parents, we often bear the weight of our children’s choices, especially when those choices lead them away from the faith we hold dear. It can be disheartening to see adult children embrace worldly values or distance themselves from us, fearing judgment for their decisions. In these moments of heartache, we must remember God’s promise: He is faithful, and His love knows no bounds.

When our children choose paths that diverge from the teachings of Christ, it can feel like a personal loss. However, we must remind ourselves that God loves them even more than we do. Our role as parents is to love unconditionally and to pray fervently for their return to faith. Just as the Prodigal Son found his way back home, we can trust that our children will also seek the Lord when they are ready.

Every prayer is a seed planted in faith. Trust that God is working in the hearts of your children, even when you cannot see it.

Consider writing a letter to your child expressing your love, your hopes, and your prayers for them. Avoid any mention of judgment; instead, focus on your unconditional love and support. This can be a tangible reminder of your heart for them, one that they can revisit when they are ready.

“Though the path may seem distant, my love and prayers for you my child will always bridge the gap. In faith, I trust that God will guide you home.” (Love, Dad)

Prayer:
Heavenly Father, Today, I come before You with a heavy heart for my children. I feel the distance that has grown between us, and I worry for their souls. I ask for Your divine intervention in their lives. Please soften their hearts and open their eyes to Your truth. Help me to be a light in their darkness, a source of love and hope, rather than judgment.

Grant me patience as I wait for them to come back to You. May I always exhibit Your love in my words and actions, showing them that the door is open for them to return home, both to me and to You. I pray for their salvation, for the day they recognize their need for You and turn away from the world’s distractions.

In Your grace, remind me that my role is to nurture them in prayer and love, trusting in Your perfect timing. I hold on to the promise that they will not stray forever, for You are faithful to fulfill Your promises. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

April 26th 2025 – Restoring Joy

Leave a reply

“The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” (John 10:10)

Have you ever felt robbed of your joy? No locks were broken, no alarms triggered; yet, you sense that your joy has been taken. Was it a sudden loss, or a slow descent into despair that you barely noticed until it was too late?

The enemy is that relentless thief, attempting to rob us of the good things that Jesus has sacrificed so much for us to enjoy.

Through the blood of Jesus at His crucifixion, we gain complete authority over the enemy. No matter what schemes he devises, we are assured of victory! Scripture tells us that Jesus died so we could live blessed, full, and joyful lives.

The enemy has no rightful place in our lives; he is beneath us, under our feet. When we feel our spirits sinking into sadness, frustration, or fear, we must be prepared for battle. It is essential to know the Word of God, equipping ourselves with the necessary defenses against attacks on our joy.

“God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” (Philippians 2:9-11)

This scripture makes it clear: at the name of Jesus, every knee will bow, including that of the enemy. He must submit to Jesus and will ultimately flee!

So, how do we reclaim what the enemy has stolen? How do we restore and maintain our joy? The wonderful truth is that God specializes in restoration. He promises to return to us double for our troubles and beauty for our ashes!

The story of Job in the Bible serves as a profound testament to God’s unwavering kindness and faithfulness. The enemy stripped Job of everything: his family, home, wealth, joy, and health. Yet throughout his trials, Job praised God and held onto his faith. As a result, God restored everything to Job, giving him even more than he had lost. Job allowed his faith to overshadow his fears, leading to the return of his joy and complete restoration.

The Bible assures us that though we may experience pain during the night, joy comes in the morning. We are called to embody the mind of Christ and be transformed into God’s image. God fights our battles for us, often without us lifting a finger in our own defense! The great I AM is never too preoccupied or on a break; He is always ready to stand with us. Call on Jesus! He will never abandon you or forsake you. He rescues us in times of trouble and promises to honor and deliver us from all evil. With Him, we are destined to triumph, and we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us. In God, we are always more than conquerors!

“You make known to me the path of life; you will fill me with JOY in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand.” (Psalm 16:11)

“When you feel your joy and peace slipping away, enter into God’s presence and boldly declare that the joy of the Lord is your strength. Pray continuously and trust that God is capable and willing to perfect all that concerns you. He will fight for you always… in every way!”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, grant us the royal gift of inward happiness and the serenity that comes from living close to You. Renew within us a daily sense of joy, allowing Your eternal spirit to dwell deep within our souls and bodies, filling every corner of our hearts with light and grace. Continue to fill us with all that is good so we may reflect You in our daily lives. I give praise to You for all the blessings You have bestowed upon me. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

March 27th 2025 – Sharing Jesus in a Lost and Hateful World

1 Reply

“Did I commit sin in humbling myself that you might be exalted, because I preached the gospel of God to you free of charge?” (2 Corinthians 11:7)

Imagine having the apostle Paul as your pastor. He’s often viewed as the “ideal pastor,” beloved by all, yet 2 Corinthians 11 reveals a different reality. In this poignant chapter, Paul finds himself defending his ministry against those within the church who question his motives.

Some in the Corinthian church accused Paul of seeking monetary gain, despite his choice to preach without charge. Others regarded him as a lesser teacher simply because he didn’t solicit financial support. Ultimately, Paul faced an uphill battle. Why did he refrain from accepting funds? Because the congregation projected an unwillingness to give, portraying themselves as unable or undeserving of contributing. They missed a transformative opportunity to support Paul’s ministry and share in its blessings due to their selfishness. Yet, Paul continued to love them deeply, striving to speak the Truth in love, hoping they would eventually recognize it.

Our own lives mirror this experience. There are moments when we share the Truth in love, and it may fall on deaf ears. But even when others resist, we must persist in love, allowing the Lord to use our gentle witness to create lasting change in their lives.

“Some people won’t hear; some won’t recognize the sacrifice and gift; some may slander you while others may wish to harm you. Yet, don’t stop trying, for some will hear and be transformed.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I find myself struggling with certain individuals in my life. No matter how much love I extend, they leave me questioning why. Help me to be a true reflection of Your love to them. Grant me opportunities to share the truth with grace, remaining sensitive and patient as Your Holy Spirit works. If I am part of the challenge, please make me aware, so I can bring it to You. Thank You for allowing me to serve in this ministry without seeking compensation or donations. I am grateful to support others with what I’ve earned through hard work. Lord, open their eyes to see that blessings are gifts, not entitlements. Thank You for sustaining me through trials when I face negativity, judgment, or attacks for sharing Your truth in love. Please continue to bless me with a job that fulfills me. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

God has made it possible for you to know Him and experience an amazing change in your own life. Please read the prayer below to ask Jesus into your life!.

Jesus,

I know I haven’t been living for You, but I want that to change. I need You in my life. I believe that You died on the cross to pay for my sins, and I ask for Your forgiveness. Come into my heart, Lord—be my King, my Savior, and my guide. From this day forward, I choose to follow You. My life is in Your hands.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.

December 8th 2024 – The Gift of Patience

Leave a reply

“Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.” (James 1:2-4)

In our fast-paced world, patience can seem like a rare virtue. We live in an age of instant gratification, where waiting for anything—be it a response to a text, a promotion at work, or even answers to our prayers—can feel frustrating. However, Scripture teaches us that patience is not merely about waiting; it is about how we wait.

James encourages us to view trials and challenges as opportunities for growth. When we face difficulties, our faith is tested, and through this process, we develop perseverance. This perseverance is essential for spiritual maturity. It helps us rely on God, deepening our trust in His timing and His plans for our lives.

Think about areas in your life where you are struggling to be patient. Perhaps you are waiting for healing, a job opportunity, or restoration in a relationship. Instead of succumbing to frustration, consider how you can cultivate patience in these moments.

God’s timing is perfect, and He is working behind the scenes even when we cannot see it. Embrace the journey of waiting as a chance to grow closer to Him and to strengthen your character.

Take a few moments to reflect on a situation in your life that requires patience. Ask God to give you strength and wisdom to wait with grace and faith. Consider journaling your thoughts and feelings about this experience.

 Prayer:

Heavenly Father, thank You for the lessons learned through patience. Help me to trust in Your timing and to find joy even in the waiting. Teach me to lean on You during difficult times and to remember that every trial is an opportunity for growth. May Your peace fill my heart as I navigate the challenges before me. Amen.

November 25th 2024 – Beautifully Broken

Leave a reply

After Job had prayed for his friends, the Lord restored his fortunes and gave him twice as much as he had before. All his brothers and sisters and everyone who had known him before came and ate with him in his house. They comforted and consoled him over all the trouble the Lord had brought on him, and each one gave him a piece of silver and a gold ring. (Job 42:10)

In the midst of our struggles and heartaches, we often find ourselves questioning our worth and purpose. We may feel shattered and lost, struggling to see how God can use our brokenness for His glory. Yet, it is in these very moments of vulnerability that we can encounter the profound grace of Jesus, who specializes in restoration.

The story of Job serves as a powerful reminder of this truth. Job experienced unimaginable suffering—loss of family, health, and wealth. His world was turned upside down, and in his deep despair, he asked God why. But through his trials, Job clung to his faith, and in the end, God restored him. Not only did He bless Job with double what he had before, but He also deepened Job’s understanding of His sovereignty and love.

Just as God restored Job, He desires to mend our broken pieces, transforming our pain into purpose. Jesus invites us to bring our brokenness to Him, to lay it at His feet. In Matthew 11:28, He says, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” When we surrender our wounds to Him, He begins the beautiful process of healing and restoration.

Imagine a broken vase, its pieces scattered and seemingly useless. Yet, when placed in the hands of a skilled artisan, those fragments can be transformed into a stunning mosaic. Our lives, too, can become a masterpiece of God’s grace. He takes our shattered dreams and turns them into a beautiful testimony of His faithfulness.

“Remember, in Christ, we are beautifully broken, yet perfectly whole.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, Thank You for the reminder that my brokenness is not the end of my story, but a part of your perfect plan. In moments of pain and struggle, help me to trust in Your restoring love, knowing that You have a purpose for every tear I shed. Open my eyes to see the beauty in my scars, understanding that they are not marks of defeat but testimonies of Your grace and healing.

Lord, I ask that You guide me through this journey of restoration. Fill my heart with hope and remind me that Your strength is made perfect in my weakness. Teach me to embrace my vulnerabilities, knowing that they allow me to connect with others and share the hope I have found in You. May I be a vessel of Your love, reflecting Your light in a world that often feels dark and broken.

I pray for those around me who are also experiencing pain and hardship. Help me to extend the same grace and compassion to them that You have shown me. Use my story to encourage others, so they may also find comfort and healing in You.

As I walk this path, may I continually seek Your presence, trusting that You are with me every step of the way. Thank You for the promise that You will never leave me nor forsake me. I place my brokenness in Your hands, knowing that You can create something beautiful from every fragment of my life. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.

“Beautifully Broken”

Are there past hurts, regrets, or disappointments weighing you down? Jesus is inviting you to trust in His restorative power. Allow Him to work in your heart, knowing that He can turn your scars into stories of hope.

October 30th 2024 – You Are My Anchor

Leave a reply

“We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure.”  (Hebrews 6:19)

As the waves of life crash around us, we often find ourselves in tumultuous seas. The uncertainties of tomorrow can feel overwhelming, and the weight of our struggles can pull us under.

Life can often feel like a turbulent sea, tossing us about with waves of uncertainty, fear, and doubt. In these moments, it is easy to feel adrift and lost, struggling to find our footing. However, as believers, we are reminded of the profound truth found in Hebrews 6:19: “We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure.”

Imagine a ship in the midst of a raging storm. The waves crash against it, and the winds howl ferociously. Yet, despite the chaos around it, the ship remains steadfast, held fast by its anchor. This is the hope we have in Christ—a hope that is not just wishful thinking but a firm assurance that He is with us, guiding us through the storms of life.

When we face challenges, we are encouraged to cast our hopes and fears onto Him. In prayer, we can release our burdens, trusting that He knows our struggles and will provide the strength we need to endure. Just as an anchor secures a ship, so too does our faith in Jesus stabilize us amidst life’s tempests.

In moments of doubt and fear, let us cling tightly to the hope we have in Him. He is our anchor—firm and secure—holding us steady when everything else feels uncertain.

As you navigate your journey, may the truth of this devotion remind you that in every circumstance, you can find stability and peace in the love of Christ. He is, indeed, your anchor.

“It is vital to remember that we have an anchor—Jesus Christ, who holds us steady amidst the storms.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I come before You with a grateful heart, acknowledging Your unwavering presence in my life. Thank You for being my anchor in the storms that rage around me. When the winds howl and the waves crash, I find solace in knowing that You are my steadfast support, grounding me in Your love and grace.

In moments of uncertainty and fear, help me to trust in Your promises. Remind me that Your Word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path, guiding me through the darkest valleys. Teach me to cling to the hope that You provide, even when my circumstances seem overwhelming. May I find peace in Your presence, knowing that You are always with me, watching over me with a love that knows no bounds.

As I face the trials and tribulations of life, help me to remember that no storm is too great for You to handle. You are the Creator of the universe, and nothing is beyond Your power. I pray for the strength to surrender my worries and fears to You, trusting that You are working all things for my good. May I lean into Your embrace, allowing Your peace to wash over me like a gentle tide, calming my anxious heart.

Lord, I also pray for those around me who may be struggling in their own storms. Use me as a vessel of Your love and encouragement, so that I can share the hope I have found in You. Help me to be a source of strength and support to others, reminding them that they too can find refuge in Your arms.

Thank You for the promise of Your presence, which brings comfort and reassurance. May I always remember that no matter how fierce the storm may be, You are with me, guiding and supporting me through every trial. I place my trust in You, knowing that You are my anchor—firm and secure. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.

October 23rd 2024 – Staying True in the Face of Abandonment

Leave a reply

“For Demas, because he loved this world, has deserted me and has gone to Thessalonica.” (2 Timothy 4:10)

In this heartbreaking moment, the Apostle Paul reflects on the painful reality of abandonment. Demas, once a close companion in ministry, chose the allure of the world over the call of God. This verse resonates deeply with many of us who have experienced moments when friends, or loved ones such as family, spouses or adult children drift away, drawn by the distractions and temptations of the world.

Paul’s words remind us that following Christ often requires perseverance, especially when faced with loneliness or betrayal. It’s easy to feel discouraged when those we love and trust abandon us or when our path feels isolated. Yet, in these moments, we are called to remember that our worth and purpose are not defined by those who leave, but by our steadfast relationship with Christ.

Abandonment can be painful, but it also presents an opportunity for growth in our relationship with Christ. Let us cling to Him, the ultimate source of our strength, and trust that He is with us, even when others are not.

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, help me to remain faithful to You, even when those around me falter or choose a different path. May I seek strength in Your presence and find comfort in Your promises. Teach me to love others as You love me, and to remain anchored in my faith, no matter the circumstances. Thank You for being my constant companion. In Your precious and glorious name, Amen.

“Take a moment to reflect on your own relationships. Are there those who have drifted away? Instead of dwelling on the loss, consider how God has remained with you, offering love and support. How can you reach out to others who might be feeling abandoned or alone, drawing them back into community and fellowship?”

If you have not accepted Jesus Christ as your Savior, Don’t wait! In a flash of a second it could be too late!” Click Here to read Four Simple Steps to Jesus.

July 24th 2023 – Navigating Crossroads

Leave a reply

Psalm 25:4 – “Show me your ways, Lord, teach me your paths.”

In our journey of faith, we often find ourselves at crossroads, unsure of which path to take or what decisions to make. It is during these times that we can turn to the Lord, just as the psalmist did, and cry out, “Show me your ways, Lord, teach me your paths.”

The psalmist’s plea is a humble admission that we, as human beings, can easily become lost and confused without the guidance of our Heavenly Father. We acknowledge that God’s ways are higher than our ways and His thoughts than our thoughts (Isaiah 55:9). Therefore, the first step towards finding direction in our lives is to surrender ourselves to Him and seek His wisdom.

Our God is not a distant deity who is uninterested in our affairs. On the contrary, He desires to be intimately involved in every aspect of our lives. He longs for us to seek His guidance and rely on His wisdom. When we come before Him with an open heart, ready to receive His instruction, He will not disappoint us.

As we meditate on this verse, let us consider the ways in which God can guide us. Firstly, He can show us His ways through His Word, the Bible. The Scriptures contain timeless truths that provide us with principles for living a godly life. By studying and meditating on His Word, we gain insight into His character and His desires for us.

Secondly, God guides us through His Holy Spirit. When we invite the Holy Spirit into our lives, He becomes our counselor, teacher, and guide. He speaks to our hearts, giving us nudges, promptings, and convictions that lead us on the right path. Our part is to cultivate a sensitive spirit and listen attentively to His gentle whispers.

Lastly, God guides us through the wise counsel of fellow believers. He places people in our lives who can offer godly advice and perspectives. Seeking wisdom from trusted mentors, pastors, or friends who are grounded in the Word can provide clarity and direction when we are facing difficult decisions.

As we pray the psalmist’s prayer, let us approach God with humility, recognizing our need for His guidance. Let us open our hearts and minds to His teachings, eagerly desiring to follow His ways and walk on His paths. May we surrender our own plans and trust in His perfect plan for our lives.

Let us commit to seeking God’s guidance in every area of our lives. Let us lean on His Word, the Holy Spirit, and the wisdom of fellow believers. As we do so, we can have confidence that He will lead us on the right path, even when it may be difficult or unclear. Trust in His faithfulness, knowing that His ways are always good and perfect

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I come before You today seeking Your guidance and wisdom. Show me Your ways, Lord, and teach me Your paths. I recognize that without You, I am lost and confused. Help me to trust in Your leading and surrender my own desires to follow Your perfect plan. Speak to me through Your Word, Your Holy Spirit, and the wise counsel of fellow believers. Guide my steps, Jesus, and may I walk in Your truth. I pray in Your precious name, Amen.

March 13th 2020 – God, I Got This On My Own

Leave a reply

“And after eight days His disciples were again inside, and Thomas with them. Jesus came, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, ‘Peace to you!’ Then He said to Thomas, ‘Reach your finger here, and look at My hands; and reach your hand here, and put it into My side. Do not be unbelieving, but believing.’” (John 20:26-27)

We have all heard the comments, “get it together,” “straighten up,” or the ever classic, “as the good book says, the Lord helps them that help themselves.” Eventually, we heard it enough that we believed it. First, I have read the good book from cover to cover several times and let me assure you, it does not say that. Second, the Lord helps those that ask for His help.

If you are still determined to make it on your own, or get yourself cleaned up, or fly right or that you can fix the problem, whatever term you want to use, the Lord will let you try. The moment you realize you need the Lord’s help, He will be there to help, though not when you are over the trial, but while you are in the trial. To think that He comes to us after we get through the tough stuff is to paint Him as a fair weather friend. Beloved of God, it is you that the Lord longs to walk with through the storms of life. Call out to Him right where you are, just as you are and He will become even more real to you. The Lord loves you enough to take you just as you are, and thankfully He loves you too much to let you stay that way.

“Jesus will come to us right where we are and as we are.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I’ve tried it my way and my way doesn’t work. I need Your help in my life. Whatever things I’m trying to do on my own outside of You, I completely surrender to You. Please help me. Thank You for being the here for me always. Forgive me for not listening to You when I have heard the answer to my situation many times. Forgive me for choosing my way over Yours. I confess that am just a sinner and do not know more then You Lord. Please strenthing my faith and trust in You. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
