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.

August 19th 2025 – Fruit of the Spirit – Part 7 of 9

Leave a reply

We are on the 7th day of a 9-day journey to learn about all of the Fruit of the Spirit – the gifts of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control that come from God.

Faith (faithfulness) – “O Lord, thou art my God; I will exalt thee, I will praise thy name; for thou hast done wonderful things; thy counsels of old are faithfulness and truth” (Isaiah 25:1). “I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith” (Ephesians 3:16-17).

It is increasingly difficult to find someone whose love or loyalty can be counted on. So many people are fickle and faithless. It’s sad to read the apostle Paul’s prophecy of wretched attitudes and habits “in the last days”  “For men will be lovers of themselves …blasphemers…unloving…slanderers…traitors…” (2 Timothy 3:1) He continues “The consequences to society are disastrous.” ( 2 Timothy 3:2-4)

Marriages and families are a major casualty. Fewer and fewer people are willing to make lifelong commitments. And a great many who do make wedding vows (even “before God”) later on break those vows in one way or another. When someone cheats on or deserts his or her mate, God says “you have dealt treacherously [with]…your companion by covenant” (Malachi 2:14-16) God hates these forms of unfaithfulness.

All good relationships are built on the foundation of faith and faithfulness, of mutual trust born out of trustworthiness. A good marriage is largely defined as a faithful wife and faithful husband. A good friend is a true friend or a faithful friend, not a “fair-weather friend,” but one who “loves at all times” (Proverbs 17:17) Paraphrased. A good employee is a trustedand dependable employee.

Although all people sometimes fail at faithfulness, we can always count on God. That is what enables us to have complete faith and trust in Him. It’s vital that we respond to the faithfulness of God the Father and Jesus Christ with deep and abiding faith, so that we will then give Them our very best—our utmost allegiance, fidelity, obedience and devotion.

Do you trust God completely? So much so that you live accordingly—to the point that He is able to trust you? When Jesus Christ returns, wouldn’t it be wonderful to hear Him say approvingly, “Well done, good and faithful servant”?

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, If I have been without faith to you or others, I ask that You would forgive me. Lord, You remain faithful to us regardless of how unfaithful we are. I thank You for this and ask that You would give me the strength to remain loyal to my family, friends and church. Use me to display Your faithfulness to a world that needs it. Thank You for Your steadfast love. Thank You that Your Word has stood the test of time and remains the source of truth and light for every situation in our lives. Please continue this work of opening my heart up to the amazing faithfulness of Your Bible. I pray this in Jesus’ name, Amen.

August 16th 2025 – Fruit of the Spirit – Part 4 of 9

Leave a reply

We are on the 4th day of a 9-day journey to learn about all of the fruit of the Spirit – the gifts of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control that come from God.

Patience (Longsuffering) — We are “strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness” (Colossians 1:11)

“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. (Galatians 5:22-23)

“Patience” in Galatians 5:22-23 literally means “long temper,” in the sense of “the ability to hold one’s temper for a long time.” The NKJV translates it “longsuffering.” A patient person is able to endure much pain and suffering without complaining. A patient person is slow to anger as he waits for God to provide comfort and punish wrongdoing. Since it is a fruit of the Spirit, we can only possess patience through the power and work of the Holy Spirit in our lives.

God is patient with sinners. (Romans 2:4) says that God’s patience leads to our repentance. (Romans 9:22) points out that only God’s patience prevents Him from destroying “the objects of his wrath.” Paul glorifies the Lord for His “unlimited patience” that saved him, “the worst of sinners” (1 Timothy 1:16). Peter highlights the patience of God in (1 Peter 3:20), pointing out that God had immense patience with the evil people of Noah’s day, delaying judgment as long as possible

The opposite of patience is agitation, discouragement, and a desire for revenge. God does not want His children to live in agitation but in peace (John 14:27). He wants to dispel discouragement and replace it with hope and praise (Psalm 42:5). We are not to avenge ourselves; rather, we are to love others (Romans 12:19; Leviticus 19:18).

God is patient, and His Spirit produces the fruit of patience in us. When we are patient, we leave room for God to work in our hearts and in our relationships. We lay down our schedule and trust in God’s. We thank the Lord for what and whom He’s brought into our lives. We let God be God.

“With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love” (Ephesians 4:2).

“Today, our Lord’s patience gives people time to be saved” 

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, Thank You for Your grace and for being so patient with me. Father, help me to walk with patience and grace and to share Your love and mercy with others. In this world of pain, help me to trust in You even when I may not understand all that is happening around me. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

August 15th 2025 – Fruit of the Spirit – Part 3 of 9

Leave a reply

We are on the 3rd day of a 9-day journey to learn about all of the fruit of the Spirit – the gifts of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control that come from God.

What is the Fruit of the Peace?

“If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men.” (Romans 12:18)

We are born at war. At birth, our sinful nature has already declared war on God and His truth. Our heart’s desire is to be separated from Him, and if we persist in this desire until death, He will give us what we want.

But God’s methods of warfare are not what we expected. Instead of a battle, He sent us the Prince of Peace (Isaiah 9:6). Jesus’ goal in coming to earth was more than simply to cease hostilities; He came to bring about a full and abiding relationship of restoration and love. The cost of this peace was His life (Isaiah 53:5).

But, just as we cannot force another to be at peace with us, even Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross did not ensure that we would accept His terms of peace. Romans 3:10-11 explains, “There is none righteous, not even one; there is none who understands, there is none who seeks for God.” None of us can accept Jesus’ offer of peace through our own will and power. Our natural selves do not want it. Only God can lead us to want peace with Him; the Holy Spirit leads us to want Jesus and His message. Once the Spirit draws us, we believe in Jesus, and the peace comes. “Since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ” (Romans 5:1).

The Spirit-filled Christian has a peace that is abundant, available in every situation, and unlike anything that the world has to offer.

“Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” (John 14:27)

“May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit” (Romans 15:13).

The alternative to being filled with the Spirit and His peace is to be filled with alarm, filled with doubt, filled with foreboding, or filled with dread. How much better to let the Spirit have control and perform His work of growing fruit to the glory of God!

“Do all that you can to live in peace with one another.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, Thank You for the work done on my behalf. Beacuse of Your sacrifice on the cross and my acceptance of You in my heart, I do not have to be anxious about my salvation. I place my faith in the grace of Christ. Please give me rest and an abundance of peace in my life. Help me to continually seek You in my life, because it is in You where I will find true peace. Help me live by Your word and draw on Your love so that I can be at peace with others when they annoy me. I Love You Lord, and I choose Peace. Today open up opportunities to share this truth with the world. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

August 7th 2025 – From Foolishness to Faith: Embracing God’s Wisdom

Leave a reply

“People ruin their lives by their own foolishness and then are angry at the Lord.” (Proverbs 19:3)

In our journey through life, it’s easy to point fingers when things go wrong. We often find ourselves frustrated and questioning God’s plans, especially when we face the consequences of our own choices. Proverbs 19:3 serves as a poignant reminder that our missteps can lead to ruin, and yet, rather than taking responsibility, we sometimes direct our anger toward God.

This verse invites us to engage in self-reflection. It challenges us to consider how our decisions—rooted in impulsivity, pride, or a lack of discernment—can lead us down paths of disappointment and heartache. When we ignore wisdom and guidance, we may find ourselves entangled in situations that bring pain, not only to ourselves but also to those around us.

However, this isn’t just a message of warning; it’s also a call to grace. The beauty of our faith lies in the understanding that God is always ready to meet us where we are. When we acknowledge our mistakes and bring our frustrations to Him, we open the door to healing and restoration. He invites us to learn from our foolishness, to seek His wisdom, and to trust in His unfailing love.

As you go through your day, take a moment to reflect on your choices. Are there areas where you may be acting foolishly? How can you invite God into those situations to bring about change and understanding? Consider journaling your thoughts and prayers, allowing space for God’s wisdom to guide you moving forward. Remember, it’s never too late to seek His direction and embrace the grace He offers.

“True wisdom begins when we acknowledge our missteps, embrace God’s grace, and choose to learn from our foolishness rather than blame Him for our choices.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, thank You for Your Word that guides us and for the wisdom found in Proverbs. Help us to recognize our own foolishness when we stray from Your path. Teach us to take responsibility for our choices and to seek Your guidance in every decision we make. When we feel angry or frustrated with our circumstances, remind us of Your grace and the mercy You offer. May we learn to lean on You, trusting that You can bring good out of our mistakes. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

August 2nd 2025 – Jesus, The Great Physician

Leave a reply

“And the LORD will take away from you all sickness, and will afflict you with none of the terrible diseases of Egypt which you have known, but will lay them on all those who hate you.” (Deuteronomy 7:15)

God is not the author of sickness and disease; He is the source of health and well-being. Our Father is constantly seeking ways to bring healing to His children, not to take it away. A thorough study of the scriptures reveals that our God is a God who heals. The Bible affirms that Jesus and the Father are one, and everywhere Jesus walked on this earth, He never inflicted sickness upon anyone.

As Acts 10:38 states, Jesus “went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil.” This illustrates that sickness originates from the devil, a consequence of the fall. When Satan entered the world, he introduced fear and all its destructive works, but God sent Jesus to eradicate them for us. What a loving Father we serve! He is the “Great I Am,” not the “I Want To Be.” He is actively at work in us, guiding us toward healing and restoration.

If it were up to the devil, he would keep us in a state of sickness and despair. Do you truly believe that the devil would provide us with doctors, nurses, and healers? No, he would not. Our Heavenly Father has graciously given us His Word for healing and provided us with skilled professionals because of His immense love for us.

So today, reject any lies from the enemy. Embrace all that is good and comes from God, your Heavenly Father. He loves you deeply and has given everything for you. Learn His ways, and the illuminating truth will always expose the darkness of the devil.

“Let Dr. Jesus heal your soul.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I come before You with a heart full of praise, acknowledging Your goodness in every circumstance I face. I trust that You desire nothing but the best for us, and when sickness and disease from the enemy intrude upon our lives, You provide paths to healing. May this healing encompass not just our bodies, but our spirits as well.

Today, I stand in faith and receive Your healing in my body and soul in the mighty name of Jesus. I declare that I am healed, for Your Word promises that You do not give sickness. In this moment, I choose to immerse myself in Your love and grace, knowing that You are my refuge and strength.

Lord, help me to recognize Your presence in my life amidst challenges. May Your healing touch restore every part of me—physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Surround me with Your peace and guide me in Your ways, illuminating the path ahead. I will share this healing with others, testifying to Your goodness and mercy.

Thank You, Father, for Your unfailing love and for the healing that is already manifesting in my life. In Jesus’ precious name, I pray, Amen.

forgivenall-1

Facing a serious illness without Jesus will get very overwhelming, you may even feel all alone.  If you do not know Him personally, 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. Jesus loves us and wants to help us through the storms. If you have not asked Jesus to be your Lord and Savior please click here 4 Simple Steps to Jesus

August 1st 2025 – Spiritual Pride

Leave a reply

“Therefore you are inexcusable, O man, whoever you are who judge, for in whatever you judge another you condemn yourself; for you who judge practice the same things.” (Romans 2:1)

In Romans chapter one, we learn about the unrighteousness of man. In chapter two, Paul addresses our self-righteousness; our desire to consider ourselves better than everybody else. Nobody wants to be labeled self-righteous, yet we are often quick to judge others. It’s essential to be aware of our own weaknesses and sinfulness. If you think that upon becoming a Christian you ceased to sin, consider this passage:

“If we say we have no sin, we are only fooling ourselves and refusing to accept the truth. But if we confess our sins to him, he is faithful and just to forgive us and to cleanse us from every wrong. If we claim we have not sinned, we are calling God a liar and showing that his word has no place.” (1 John 1:8-10)

Examine yourself. If you spend more time contemplating the sins of others than acknowledging your own, you risk developing spiritual pride, which is an offense to God. Have you ever looked at someone and thought there was no hope for them? In doing so, you imply that God’s mercy is limited. You are pridefully asserting that your sins can be forgiven while another’s cannot. Every person, regardless of how we perceive them, is in need of God’s saving grace.

Pause and reflect: How much have you been forgiven? Does this mean we should refrain from speaking into others’ lives? Not at all. We can and should, but our approach must be one of love, not condemnation. Just as God has generously poured His grace upon you, allow that same grace to inform your interactions with others. Offer insights from your experiences with a heart full of compassion. Remember, you cannot condemn someone while simultaneously offering hope. The moment we slip into condemnation is the moment we lose sight of our true mission: to share the love of Jesus.

“Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall.” (Proverbs 16:18)

“Pridefully seeing the sin in others does not root out the sin in us.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I thank You for the boundless grace and forgiveness You extend to me, even in my moments of weakness. I am deeply grateful for the cleansing power of Your love. Please forgive me for the times I have allowed pride to cloud my judgment, leading me to condemn others in my heart. Help me to see them through Your eyes, recognizing that we all stand in need of Your mercy. Grant me the courage and compassion to share the message of Jesus with those I encounter, extending the same grace I have received. May my words reflect Your love and truth, and may I never lose sight of the mission You have entrusted to me. Thank You for Your constant presence in my life. In Your precious name, I pray, Amen.

July 31st 2025 – Echoes of Grace

Leave a reply

“But he said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.’ Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.” (2 Corinthians 12:9)


In the hustle and bustle of life, it’s easy to forget the gentle whispers of grace that surround us. “Echoes of Grace” invites us to pause and listen to the soft, reassuring calls of God’s grace in our everyday moments.

Grace is not merely a concept; it is an active presence in our lives. It is the quiet assurance that even in our struggles and weaknesses, God’s strength is magnified. Each echo of grace reminds us that we are loved, forgiven, and supported by a God who knows our hearts.

Think of a time when you felt overwhelmed or unworthy. How did God’s grace manifest in that moment? Perhaps it was through a friend’s encouraging words, a sudden moment of peace, or an unexpected blessing. These are the echoes of grace that remind us we are never alone.

Spend a few moments in silence, reflecting on the echoes of grace you have experienced. Write them down or share them with someone who might need to hear about God’s grace in action.

This week, look for opportunities to be an echo of grace in someone else’s life. Offer a kind word, lend a helping hand, or simply be present for someone in need. Let your actions reflect the grace you have received from God.

“Grace is the gentle whisper that assures us we are never alone, even in our moments of greatest weakness.”

Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You for the grace that flows through my life. Help me to recognize and appreciate the echoes of Your love and strength in my weaknesses. May I become a vessel of Your grace to others, sharing the hope and comfort I have received. In Jesus’s name, Amen.

July 28th 2025 – The Power of God’s Grace

Leave a reply

“His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and goodness.” (2 Peter 1:2-3)

Knowledge is a remarkable gift. It empowers us to build towering structures, create innovative machines, and even find cures for diseases. Through knowledge, we gain insights into the universe around us. However, knowledge can yield both positive and negative results, depending on how we apply it. Yet there is one kind of knowledge that stands above the rest—a knowledge that, when embraced, grants us eternal life. This is the knowledge found in the Gospel.

Throughout history, many scholars have studied the Bible, grasping the words on the page. Yet, only a few have truly experienced the transformative power of those words. The Gospel is not merely a narrative; it is the very power of God that leads to our salvation.

“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God.” (Ephesians 2:8)

The truth of Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection offers us a pathway to a relationship with God. What we choose to do with this truth can either bring us closer to Him or lead us away. God’s powerful, life-changing grace is woven throughout the Scriptures, inviting us to trust in it. When we do, we begin to experience the profound grace that is so often celebrated in song. This grace brings peace to our souls and hope for our future. Have you embraced that grace?

“Only God could reach so low and lift us so high.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, thank You for the incredible gift of grace that You freely offer to us. I come before You with a humble heart, asking for Your forgiveness for my sins. Cleanse me and make me new, Lord. I believe in the work that Jesus accomplished for me through His life, death, and resurrection. I trust in Him for my salvation and invite Your Holy Spirit to fill me. Strengthen me to live a life that honors You and reflects Your love to others. Guide my steps and help me to share Your message of hope and grace with those around me. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.

In order to experience the power of Christ, we must first trust Him. If you are seeking Jesus in your life or want to recommit your life to Him. Click here to learn more.

July 24th 2025 – Look To Jesus And Believe

Leave a reply

“Looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith…” (Hebrews 12:2)

In the first church I attended, we often sang an old hymn that resonates deeply with me: “Look to Jesus and believe, look to Jesus and receive.” How true this is! When we set our sights on Jesus and place our trust in Him, everything begins to fall into place. My desire is for my life to reflect Him, much like a mirror reflects our image.

This scripture reminds us to focus on Jesus, the One who initiated the work within us and the One who will see it through to completion. The Bible expresses it beautifully: “…fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith.” I find comfort in this; my role is simply to keep my eyes on Him, allowing Him to handle the rest. He began this work in my life long ago, and whether you’ve known Him for years or just a few days, it’s reassuring to know that He is committed to perfecting the work within us.

I often say, “It’s all about Jesus.” When I step aside and let Him reign as Lord and King of my life, everything seems to align. Conversely, when I place myself on the throne, that’s when chaos ensues. After all, He created us, and He is more than capable of finishing the good work He started.

Today, take heart. Your life is in the palm of His mighty hand, and He will not let you down. What a relief to know that He began this journey with you and will bring it to a perfect conclusion. Isn’t that a wonderful promise?

“God proved His love on the Cross. When Christ hung, and bled, and died, it was God saying to the world, ‘I Love You.’”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, today I come before You with a heart full of gratitude. I am encouraged, for I know that what You have started in my life, You will bring to completion. This journey is not about my strength or ability; it’s about You, Jesus, shining through me by the power of the Holy Spirit. Help me to keep my focus fixed on You, trusting that You cannot fail. As I navigate the challenges of life, may I always remember that my hope is anchored in You. Thank You for loving me so deeply that You gave Your life for me. In Your precious name, I pray, Amen.
