October 15th 2025 – Unhindered

Scripture Reading:

“If others are partakers of this right over you, are we not even more? Nevertheless, we have not used this right, but endure all things lest we hinder the gospel of Christ.” (1 Corinthians 9:12)

The apostle Paul exemplified what it means to sacrifice for the Gospel. He faced imprisonment, beatings, shipwrecks, and even venomous snake bites, yet his resolve to proclaim Christ remained unwavering. In his correspondence with the Corinthians, we witness a man committed to his mission, unshaken by the trials that sought to deter him. How could he persevere? The answer is profound yet simple: he deeply understood the God he served.

Stepping out in faith often means embracing the unknown. God may call us to share the Gospel with someone whose response is uncertain or to contribute to our church when our own financial situation feels precarious. In every circumstance, one truth stands firm—God is unchanging. He is the same God who provided for Paul in his times of need, who safeguarded him during perilous journeys, and who offered His Son as the ultimate sacrifice for our salvation. Because He is God, we can boldly step out in faith and discover a life filled with purpose and joy. Because He is God, we are free to serve Him wholeheartedly.

Application:

  1. Reflect on Your Sacrifices: Take time this week to identify areas in your life where you may need to sacrifice for the sake of the Gospel. Consider what you’re willing to give up—time, resources, or comfort—to serve God more fully.
  2. Step Out in Faith: Choose one specific action that requires you to step out of your comfort zone. This could be sharing your faith with someone, volunteering in your community, or contributing to your church’s mission. Write down your plan and take action.
  3. Journal Your Journey: Keep a journal to document your experiences as you step out in faith. Reflect on any fears or doubts you face and how God helps you overcome them. This will serve as a reminder of His faithfulness.
  4. Pray for Boldness: Set aside time each day to pray specifically for boldness and clarity in sharing the Gospel. Ask God to open doors for conversations and opportunities to serve others.
  5. Connect with Community: Engage with your church or a small group to discuss your commitment to living out your faith. Share your goals and encourage one another in your journeys. Accountability can strengthen your resolve.
  6. Celebrate God’s Provision: As you take steps in faith, be mindful of how God provides for you. Celebrate the small victories and the ways He shows up in your life, reinforcing your trust in His unchanging nature.

By actively applying these steps, you’ll deepen your understanding of God’s call and experience the freedom that comes from living a life dedicated to Him.

“When we give our lives to God, only then do we discover maximum freedom.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, Thank You for the boundless love and grace You have shown me. I am grateful for Jesus and the incredible gift of salvation that transforms my life. Lord, I recognize that this gift brings me freedom—not just from sin, but to serve You with all my heart and soul. I ask that You remove any fear or doubt that clouds my mind and holds me back. Help me to fully surrender my life to You, to trust in Your plans, and to boldly step out in faith. Use me as an instrument for Your Kingdom, guiding my actions and words to reflect Your love and truth. May my life be a testimony of Your goodness, and may I continually seek to glorify You in all I do. In Jesus’ name, I pray, Amen.

If you haven’t yet invited Jesus into your heart, this moment can change everything. It’s never too late to seek His love, grace, and forgiveness. Jesus is waiting for you with open arms, ready to guide you on a beautiful journey of hope and purpose. Take a step toward a new beginning today. Click here  to begin your journey with Jesus and discover the peace and joy that come from knowing Him. Let today be the day you embrace His love and grace!

September 27th 2025 – The Unfolding of Biblical Prophecy

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” (Jeremiah 29:11)

In our ever-changing world, the Bible stands as a timeless beacon of truth. The prophecies contained within its pages are not merely historical records; they are living truths that resonate with our current experiences. As we witness the tumultuous events unfolding around us—natural disasters, societal upheaval, moral decay and now the recent news of a possible war with Russia—it becomes increasingly clear that the words of Scripture are coming to fruition.

The prophets of old spoke of a time when the hearts of many would grow cold (Matthew 24:12) and when nations would rise against nations (Matthew 24:7). Each day, we see these signs manifesting in ways that stir our hearts and minds. Yet, amidst this chaos, there is a profound message of hope: Jesus Christ is our anchor in the storm, our refuge and strength (Psalm 46:1).

This is a call to action, a divine invitation to draw closer to Him. If you have not yet established a relationship with Jesus, don’t wait until it’s too late. The time to get right with the Lord is now. The Scriptures remind us that today is the day of salvation (2 Corinthians 6:2).

Imagine living in the assurance that you are loved, forgiven, and destined for eternity with Christ. The beauty of the Gospel is that no matter how far we may have strayed, His arms are always open wide, ready to receive us. He wants to transform our lives, offering us not just a way out of our current struggles but a new life filled with purpose and joy.

“Embrace the unfolding of God’s prophecy with an open heart, for in every sign of His promise, there lies the invitation to draw closer to Jesus and experience the transformative power of His love.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, We come before You with grateful hearts, acknowledging Your sovereignty and faithfulness. As we witness the unfolding of Your prophetic word in our world, we are reminded of the urgency to stand firm in our faith. Help us to discern the times and to remain steadfast in our commitment to You.

Lord, ignite a passion within us to share Your truth and love with those around us. May we be bold witnesses of Your grace, reflecting Your light in a world that often feels dark and chaotic. Strengthen our resolve to seek You daily in prayer and in Your Word, growing deeper in our relationship with You.

As we navigate these challenging times, grant us wisdom and courage to hold fast to our hope in Christ. Help us to be a source of encouragement to one another, reminding each other of Your promises and the eternal future we have in You.

Thank You for the gift of salvation and the assurance that You are with us always. May our lives be a testament to Your love and a beacon of hope for those who are lost. We ask all this in the powerful name of Jesus, Amen.

If you feel a stirring in your heart and desire to know Jesus personally, I invite you to pray this prayer.

Salvation Prayer:

“Dear Jesus, I come to You today recognizing my need for You. I acknowledge that I am a sinner in need of Your grace. I believe that You died for my sins and rose again, conquering death so that I might have eternal life. I ask for Your forgiveness and invite You to be my Lord and Savior. Help me to follow You and to grow in my relationship with You. Thank You for Your love and for the gift of salvation. In Your holy name, I pray, Amen.”

August 22nd 2025 – Trusting God With Our Children

“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.

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

“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.

June 19th 2025 – Possessing Faith In the End-Times

“Behold the proud, His soul is not upright in him; But the just shall live by his faith.” (Habakkuk 2:4)

Faith is fundamentally about trusting in God. To have faith means to believe that God will fulfill His promises. This trust forms the core of our Christian journey, shaping both our salvation and our ongoing relationship with the Lord. One of the most challenging aspects of faith often lies in the waiting. God has assured us of many things, including His glorious return, yet the period of waiting can be arduous. It is during these times that we must prioritize trusting God’s promises over the uncertainties we perceive around us.

When we survey the world, we see corrupt leadership, rampant sin, and the enemy causing chaos in lives. In these moments, we may find ourselves crying out, “Lord Jesus, come!” However, as we utter these prayers, we are called to walk in faith. We must believe that God’s plans surpass our understanding. He may be allowing suffering to persist a bit longer to draw others to salvation through Christ. The wonderful truth is that one day, He will return, and when He does, everything will be restored, and our world will be transformed forever. This is not just a comforting fairy tale; it is a profound reality. We hold this truth by faith, anchored in the One who has consistently proven His faithfulness.

“When Christ returns, the world will be renewed, our bodies will be transformed, and evil will be vanquished.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, thank You for the promises found in Your Word. Grant me the faith to trust in those promises, no matter my feelings or the circumstances surrounding me. I wholeheartedly believe that You are God, that Jesus is my Savior, and that He will return one day. Empower me to share this message of hope with everyone around me. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

June 2nd 2025 – It Can Be Forgiven

“He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world.” (1 John 2:2)

Often, people mistakenly believe that God forgives only small sins—like lying, harboring anger, or impure thoughts—while overlooking the so-called “big” sins, such as murder and adultery. This misconception could not be further from the truth. There is no sin too great for God to forgive. When Jesus died on the cross, He paid the penalty for every sin throughout history. When someone repents and seeks forgiveness, placing their faith in Jesus Christ for salvation, all sins—past, present, and future, big or small—are forgiven. Jesus’ sacrifice ensures that once forgiven, they are truly gone.

“In whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins. Everyone has sinned.” (Colossians 1:14)

“All the prophets testify about Him that everyone who believes in Him receives forgiveness of sins through His name.” (Acts 10:43)

We are all guilty of sin (Romans 3:23) and deserve eternal punishment (Romans 6:23). Yet, Jesus died for us to take on that penalty (Romans 5:8). Anyone who believes in Jesus Christ for salvation is forgiven, regardless of their past actions.

While someone who has committed serious crimes may still face significant earthly consequences—be they legal or relational—this does not affect their spiritual standing before God. The moment a murderer, thief, or adulterer believes and places their faith in Christ, they are completely and permanently forgiven.

Everyone can be saved through Jesus.

The key factor is not the magnitude of the sin but the enormity of Christ’s atoning sacrifice. The shed blood of the sinless Lamb of God is powerful enough to cover all the sins of every person who believes in Him. When Jesus proclaimed, “It is finished,” He brought an end to sin, providing complete atonement and satisfaction, granting us pardon, peace, and redemption. This work is full and final; nothing can be added to it, and it is accomplished entirely by God’s grace.

What happens when we repent? (Asking for forgiveness before God)

“If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” (1 John 1:9)

God’s love for us runs deeper than we can comprehend, yet He passionately detests our sin. That’s why He sent Jesus—to remove our sin and the barrier it creates between us and Him. The blood of Jesus is the only force capable of breaking down that wall. When we repent—confessing and turning away from our sins—we unlock the floodgates of God’s blessings and goodness in our lives.

If today’s message resonates with you, I invite you to seek Jesus in prayer and ask for His forgiveness. If you do not yet know Jesus personally, know that your presence here is no coincidence. I encourage you to pray the following prayer with me:

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I acknowledge that I have broken Your laws and that my sins have separated me from You. I am truly sorry and desire to turn away from my past sinful life and toward You. Please forgive me and help me to avoid sinning again. I believe that Your Son, Jesus Christ, died for my sins, was resurrected from the dead, and is alive, hearing my prayer. I invite Jesus to be the Lord of my life, to rule and reign in my heart from this day forward. Please send Your Holy Spirit to guide me in obeying You and fulfilling Your will for my life. In Jesus’ name, I pray, Amen.

If you prayed this prayer, please click here and scroll to the bottom to let us know. If you would like to be contacted, please select “yes,” and I will reach out to discuss your next steps. Congratulations and welcome to God’s family! I am so proud and happy that you’ve made this life-changing decision. Your life will never be the same.

April 10th 2025 – Our Spiritual Journey to Heaven

Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.(James 4:14)

As we traverse this life, it is essential to remember that our time on earth is but a fleeting moment in the grand tapestry of eternity. The brevity of life is a truth echoed throughout Scripture, urging us to make the most of every day we are given. James 4:14 reminds us, “What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.” This profound insight compels us to reflect on how we are living and what truly matters.

Our spiritual journey to Heaven is one marked by choices, growth, and preparation. Each day presents us with opportunities to draw closer to God and to deepen our faith. It is a path that requires intentionality, as we seek to align our lives with His will. The call to salvation through Jesus Christ is not one to be delayed or taken lightly. Hebrews 3:15 encourages us, “Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts.” The urgency of this message resonates deeply, reminding us that tomorrow is never guaranteed.

In our fast-paced world, it is easy to become distracted by the demands of daily life, allowing our spiritual growth to take a backseat. Yet, we are called to be vigilant and proactive in our faith. As we journey, we must ask ourselves: Are we nurturing our relationship with Jesus? Are we living in a way that reflects His love and grace? Ephesians 5:15-16 instructs us, “Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.”

To be prepared for our eternal home in Heaven, we must cultivate a heart that seeks after God. This involves regular prayer, immersing ourselves in His Word, and engaging in fellowship with other believers. It is through these practices that we grow spiritually, equipping ourselves for the challenges we may face along the way. Matthew 7:7 reminds us, “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.” God is faithful to respond to our earnest search for Him.

Moreover, our journey to Heaven is not solely for our benefit but is also a testament to those around us. As we embody the love of Christ, we become beacons of hope to others, drawing them toward the salvation that is found in Him. 1 Peter 3:15 encourages us to “Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have.” Our lives can serve as a living testimony of God’s grace and mercy.

In conclusion, let us not take our time on earth for granted. Life is short, and the call to salvation is urgent. May we strive to be prepared, embracing each day as an opportunity to grow in faith and draw others to Christ.

“As we journey toward Heaven, let us hold fast to the promise of eternal life, living boldly for Him.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, help us to recognize the gift of life and the urgency of our spiritual journey. May we seek You wholeheartedly, preparing our hearts for our eternal home. Guide us to live wisely and to share the hope we have in You. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

April 9th 2025 – Destination Heaven

“My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.” (John 14:2-3)

As believers, our ultimate destination is Heaven—a place of eternal joy, peace, and communion with God. In this earthly life, we often face trials and tribulations that can weigh heavily on our hearts. However, Jesus reassures us that He is preparing a place for us in His Father’s house. This promise brings hope and comfort, reminding us that our struggles are temporary and that a glorious eternity awaits us.

Heaven is not just a distant dream; it’s a reality crafted by our Savior, a home where we will dwell in His presence forever. Consider the beauty and peace of this place, free from pain and sorrow. Let this vision of Heaven encourage you to persevere through life’s challenges, knowing that each step you take brings you closer to your eternal home.

Spend a few moments in silence, imagining what your eternal home in Heaven will be like. Reflect on the joy of being in the presence of God and the loved ones who have gone before you. Let this vision inspire you to live each day with purpose and hope.

This week, share the promise of Heaven with someone who may be struggling. Encourage them to find hope in the eternal perspective that God has promised to those who believe in Him.

Let us not take our time on earth for granted. Life is short, and the call to salvation is urgent. May we strive to be prepared, embracing each day as an opportunity to grow in faith and draw others to Christ.

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, thank You for the promise of Heaven and the assurance that You are preparing a place for me. Help me to keep my eyes fixed on You and to live in a way that honors You as I journey through this life. May I be a light to others, sharing the hope of Heaven with those around me. Strengthen my faith and fill my heart with peace, knowing that I am destined for a beautiful eternity with You. In Jesus’ name, I pray, Amen.

January 28th 2025 – Shipwrecked, Cling to Your Faith

Click to have devotion read by the author.

“Cling to your faith in Christ, and keep your conscience clear. For some people have deliberately violated their consciences; as a result, their faith has been shipwrecked.” (1 Timothy 1:19)

Recently, California has faced devastating wildfires, leaving many communities in distress and uncertainty. As flames engulfed vast areas, families were forced to evacuate, and homes were lost. Our hearts and prayers go out to all those affected, as they navigate the challenges and heartache that come with such a catastrophic event.

In our journey through life, we all desire smooth sailing, yet storms and unforeseen challenges often arise. Unlike storms that can be spotted from afar, disasters strike suddenly and without warning. Life can throw us unexpected trials that leave us feeling unprepared and bewildered.

The apostle Paul faced three literal shipwrecks in his lifetime (see 2 Corinthians 11:25). You might think that would deter anyone from the ocean! Yet, Paul also warned of spiritual shipwrecks—when individuals allow their faith to falter. He urged Timothy to “cling to your faith in Christ, and keep your conscience clear,” noting that some had strayed from this path, leading to their spiritual demise (1 Timothy 1:19–20).

I’ve witnessed people lose their faith in the face of tragedy, often stating, “I’ve lost my faith through this.” However, I believe that true faith is resilient. The faith that cannot withstand trials is not genuine faith at all. The Bible reminds us that “when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow” (James 1:3).

If your faith falters under pressure, perhaps it’s time to reevaluate its foundation. Let go of any fragile faith and embrace a stronger, more authentic belief in God. When crises arise, our faith should not crumble; rather, it should deepen as we cling to the Lord during turbulent times.

“Disasters will come—perhaps not today, tomorrow, or even next week—but they are inevitable. Prepare yourself spiritually.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I am thankful that You are my Rock and a constant source of support in times of need. When I feel adrift and lost, remind me of Your unwavering love and faithfulness. Lead me to trust Your Word over my emotions. I choose to hold tightly to my faith in You. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Is Jesus the Lord and Savior of your life?

Maybe you once followed Him, but feel lost now, consider this prayer of salvation or recommit your life to Him.

Salvation Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I come before You with a humble heart, seeking Your love and grace. I acknowledge that I am a sinner in need of Your forgiveness. I believe that Jesus Christ is Your Son, who died for my sins and rose again, conquering death and offering me eternal life.

Lord, I repent of my sins and ask You to cleanse me with Your precious blood. I invite You into my heart as my Lord and Savior. Help me to walk in Your ways and grow in my faith each day.

Thank You for the gift of salvation and for the assurance of Your presence in my life. I commit my life to You, trusting in Your plan and purpose for me.

In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.

December 20th 2024 – Heed The Warning

“Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come. But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.” (Matthew 24:42-44)

In our daily lives, we often find ourselves captivated by the warnings of the world. The weatherman’s alert about an impending storm sends us scurrying to stock up on supplies, secure our homes, and prepare for the worst. The urgency of his message is tangible; the threat is real. We understand the importance of being ready when nature’s fury approaches.

Yet, when the preacher stands before us, proclaiming that Jesus is coming again, the reaction is often starkly different. The urgency fades, and apathy may seep in. We may nod in agreement or listen politely, but how often do we truly prepare our hearts and lives for His return? The contrast is striking: one warning evokes immediate action, while the other is met with indifference.

In the Gospels, Jesus continually reminds us of His return. He urges us to be vigilant, to keep our lamps filled with oil (Matthew 25:1-13), and to live in a state of readiness. The call to prepare for His coming is not just a suggestion; it is a command. If we believe in the truth of His Word, we must recognize the gravity of His return.

As we reflect on this thought, let us ask ourselves: Are we as diligent in preparing our souls for Christ’s return as we are for a storm? Are we nurturing our faith, engaging in prayer, and actively seeking to live out His teachings? The time to prepare is now, not when the clouds gather or when the trumpet sounds.

As we embrace the truth of His coming, let us strive to live lives that reflect our anticipation and readiness. May we always be found faithful, awaiting our Savior with joy and hope.

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, forgive us for the times we have taken Your return lightly. Help us to be vigilant and ready, living each day with purpose and faith. May we not only heed the warnings of this world but also embrace the truth of Your Word. Fill our hearts with urgency and passion for Your coming, that we may live in a way that honors You. In Jesus’ name, we pray, Amen.

If you do not know Jesus 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. If you have not asked Jesus to be your Lord and Savior, please consider the eternal consequences. Time is running out!

Salvation Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I acknowledge that I am a sinner in need of Your grace. I believe that Jesus died for my sins and rose again to give me new life. I turn from my sins and invite You, Jesus, into my heart as my Lord and Savior. Thank You for Your mercy and love. Help me to follow You all the days of my life. Amen.

If you accepted Jesus or have any questions or concerns you would like help with, please let us know. We’re here to help you understand the love that Jesus is offering you for free, no matter who or where you are.
