December 16th 2025 – Awakening to His Wisdom

Leave a reply

Scripture Reading:

“For my people are foolish; they do not know me; they are stupid children; they have no understanding; they are wise in doing evil, but how to do good they know not.” (Jeremiah 4:22)

Reflection:

In this poignant verse, God, through Jeremiah, highlights a profound truth about human nature: our tendency to stray from the path of wisdom and understanding. The Israelites, despite being His chosen people, had turned away from knowing God, leading to folly and destruction. This passage serves as a mirror reflecting our own lives.

Foolishness vs. Wisdom:
It’s easy for us to become entangled in the ways of the world, becoming wise in doing evil rather than pursuing righteousness. We may find ourselves justifying actions that stray from God’s commands, prioritizing our desires over His will. This verse prompts us to examine our own hearts—are we actively seeking to know God, or are we complacent, relying on our own understanding?

The Call to Know God:
To combat this foolishness, we must cultivate a deeper relationship with God. This involves prayer, studying His Word, and seeking His presence. As we grow in our knowledge of Him, we begin to understand His heart, His ways, and, ultimately, His goodness. Knowing God equips us to discern right from wrong and empowers us to act justly.

Encouragement:
In moments of confusion or moral ambiguity, remember that God desires to guide us. He invites us into a deeper relationship where we can learn to do good. Let us commit to pursuing understanding, leaning not on our own wisdom but on His everlasting truth.

Take a moment to reflect on how you can deepen your relationship with God this week. Consider specific steps you can take—whether through prayer, reading Scripture, or serving others—to align your understanding with His wisdom.

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, Thank You for Your unfailing love and guidance. We come before You, recognizing our tendency to stray from Your ways and the foolishness that sometimes clouds our judgment. Forgive us for the moments when we prioritize our desires over Your truth, and for the times we become wise in doing evil rather than seeking Your goodness.

Help us to cultivate a deeper relationship with You, Lord. Ignite a burning desire in our hearts to know You more intimately. As we immerse ourselves in Your Word, grant us understanding and discernment to recognize Your voice amid the noise of the world. Teach us to seek Your wisdom in every decision we make, so that our actions reflect Your love and grace.

Lord, empower us to act justly and to be vessels of Your goodness in our communities. May our lives shine brightly as testimonies of Your transformative power. We ask for Your help in overcoming the distractions that lead us away from You, and we trust that You will guide us back to the path of righteousness.

Thank You for Your patience with us, and for the promise that when we seek You, we will find You. May we always be hungry for Your presence, eager to learn, and ready to serve. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

Invitation to Accept Jesus:

If you find yourself yearning for hope, love, and a purpose that transcends your current circumstances, I invite you to take a transformative step today. Jesus offers you a relationship filled with grace, understanding, and the promise of everlasting life.

In moments of waiting and uncertainty, know that you are not alone. He is ready to walk with you through every trial and triumph. Embrace the assurance that your story is not finished, and God is eager to reveal His plans for you.

April 11th 2025 – Unlimited Resource

Leave a reply

“He who scatters has come up before your face. Man the fort! Watch the road! Strengthen your flanks! Fortify your power mightily.” (Nahum 2:1)

Tests and trials are a part of life and often push us to our limits in so many ways. During these times, what do you turn to? Do you first run to others seeking those who feel the same way you do? Do you find yourself to be anxious because you are constantly looking down the road of life waiting for the next attack? Maybe you run to your money or addiction to seek answers or comfort. Whatever the case may be, the truth is, when we do not run to God first, we will not last long.

As followers of Christ, we have the unlimited resource of wisdom and power available to anyone. He is our Father God and He desires to help us in times of need. We may be able to limp along on our own wisdom and strength for a time, but when we trust in the Lord’s strength and His infinite wisdom, we will never grow weary. Today you will encounter difficult situations. Don’t be surprised by them but simply use them as an excuse to draw closer to God. Need wisdom? Ask the Father. Desire strength? Find it in Jesus.

“When you aew faced with a problem, seek God first before relying on your own wisdom or strength.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, Thank You for Your generous love for me. I am so grateful that I can run to You in times of need and You will hear my cry. Father, I ask for Your strength and wisdom today. No matter where I find myself I ask that You would guide my steps and use me for Your purposes. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

January 2nd 2025 – A New Way

Leave a reply

“Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.” (Isaiah 43:18-19)

In these powerful verses, God calls us to release our hold on the past. The Israelites were reminded of their struggles and the weight of their history, yet God offers a profound promise: He is making something new. This same invitation is extended to us today.

Holding onto our past—both the pain and the glory—can often prevent us from experiencing the fullness of what God wants to do in our lives. When we dwell on former things, we risk being stuck, unable to move forward into the new horizons God has prepared for us.

God’s Creative Power:

God’s declaration, “I am making a way in the wilderness,” reminds us that He is always at work, even when we find ourselves in barren or difficult places. The wilderness represents our struggles, doubts, and uncertainties. Yet, God promises to bring forth streams of hope and renewal in those very wastelands.

Awakening Awareness:

The phrase “Do you not perceive it?” encourages us to sharpen our vision. Are we aware of the new things God is doing around us? Sometimes, our focus on the past can blind us to the present and future opportunities God is crafting.

“Take a moment to sit quietly and reflect on the areas of your life that you may still be holding onto. Ask God to reveal the new things He is doing, and listen for His guidance.“

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, help me to let go of the burdens of my past. Open my heart and mind to the new things You are doing in my life. Teach me to trust in Your guidance as You create paths in my wilderness. May I find joy and hope in the streams You are providing amidst my challenges. In Jesus’ Holy name, Amen.

November 17th 2024 – Open Our Eyes to Truth

Leave a reply

“Jesus said, ‘For judgment I have come into this world, so that the blind will see and those who see will become blind.’ Some Pharisees who were with him heard him say this and asked, ‘What? Are we blind too?’ Jesus said, ‘If you were blind, you would not be guilty of sin; but now that you claim you can see, your guilt remains.” (John 9:39-41)

Spiritual blindness is a profound condition that many individuals experience, often without being aware of its presence. It signifies an inability to grasp essential spiritual truths and to recognize the active work of God in our lives. In the passage from the Gospel of John, Jesus addresses the Pharisees, who were self-assured in their understanding of the Scriptures yet remained oblivious to their spiritual shortcomings. Their extensive knowledge did not equate to a genuine comprehension of God’s heart and intentions.

When we become overly confident in our ability to see and understand, we risk falling into complacency, relying solely on our own insights and experiences rather than earnestly seeking God’s guidance. This arrogance can lead to a form of spiritual blindness, where we fail to perceive the richness of God’s grace and the depths of His mercy.

The challenge lies in acknowledging that spiritual insight does not come from human wisdom alone; it is a gift from God. The more we claim to possess clarity, the more we must examine whether we are truly in touch with divine truth or merely living in the shadows of our presumption.

Take a few moments of quiet reflection, inviting God to reveal to you any areas of your life where you may be experiencing spiritual blindness. Consider how you can actively seek His wisdom and guidance in your journey, fostering an openness to the transformative truths He wishes to unveil.

“When we rely on our own wisdom, we risk pride and spiritual blindness, missing the depth of God’s grace and mercy.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I come before You seeking illumination for my soul. Open my eyes to the areas of my life where I may be spiritually blind. Grant me the discernment to recognize the powerful truths embedded in Your Word, and help me to sense Your presence in every aspect of my daily life. Instill in me a humble heart that acknowledges my need for Your wisdom, and the grace to pursue a deeper understanding of Your ways. May I never reach a point of self-assuredness that blinds me to the beautiful revelations You desire to share with me. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

If you do not know Jesus personally, Give yourself the greatest gift you could possible ever receive. I encourage you not to pass up the precious gift of His love and eternal life. Jesus died on the cross for you and me. He loves us and wants to help us. If you have not asked Jesus to be your Lord and Savior, please click here

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.

Please listen to an original song I recently wrote called “You Are My Anchor”
