March 23rd 2025 – Safe and Secure with Jesus


“I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand.” (John 10:28)

I want you to fully understand the safety and security you have in God’s presence. If you have invited Jesus into your life, you are on the path to heaven, and nothing can hinder you from reaching that glorious destination. When you leave this life, you will have the incredible joy of seeing Him face to face, a joy that surpasses all earthly experiences. Even now, you are never separated from Him, even if you must see Him through the eyes of faith. He will walk with you until the end of time and beyond into eternity.

There may be moments when we don’t always feel His presence. Here are just a few of God’s promises to remind you:

“Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; He will never leave you nor forsake you.” (Deuteronomy 31:6)

“The LORD himself goes before you and will be with you; He will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.” (Deuteronomy 31:8)

“No one will be able to stand up against you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will never leave you nor forsake you.” (Joshua 1:5)

“May the LORD our God be with us as he was with our ancestors; may He never leave us nor forsake us.” (1 Kings 8:57)

“Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, ‘Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.’” (Hebrews 13:5)

While we may choose to turn away from God, He will never abandon us. Regardless of how bleak a situation may seem or how empty you might feel, remember that God is always with you! His promises are unwavering, and His word stands above all else. We can move forward with confidence, knowing He goes before us. And if God is for us, who can stand against us?

When you forget His presence, you may experience feelings of loneliness or fear. It is through the awareness of His presence that peace can replace negative emotions. Make it a practice to walk consciously with Jesus each day.

“God’s promise: Safe and Secure in His Presence”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, thank You for walking with me and providing peace. I surrender each day to You, asking that You use me to help others come to know You. Continue to shape me into the person You have destined me to be. I love You, Lord. In Jesus’ name, 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. He loves us and wants to help us. If you have not asked Jesus to be your Lord and Savior please click here Click here

March 22nd 2025 – Right Where We Are

“For if I am an offender, or have committed anything deserving of death, I do not object to dying; but if there is nothing in these things of which these men accuse me, no one can deliver me to them. I appeal to Caesar.” (Acts 25:11)

What does God see when he looks at you? He sees you clearly right where you are. God knows your potential. He created you. He knows the gifts and talents that He has given you. God knows how He wants to use you to love and serve Him and others. Sometimes God will use things in our lives that we least expect Him to use. In Acts 25, we see God using Paul’s Roman citizenship to give him the opportunity to preach the Gospel before King Agrippa and a huge audience in the amphitheater at Caesarea. Like Paul, God is able to use you to do incredible things right where you are. No gift or talent is too big or too small. No circumstance too dire, God can use it.

Do you want to be used by God? You can start right where you are in your home, workplace and in your church. How are you serving God today? How will you be serving God a month from now or even a year from now? I want to encourage you to start serving God right where you are. God has got an awesome adventure planned for you; a miraculous mission lies waiting for you if you choose to accept your mission. God will use you in ways you never thought possible.

“God wants to work through you right where you are with what you have right now.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, Open my eyes so that I can ask the tough questions in my life. Give me understanding on how to live out the Truth I believe. Shower me with Your grace when I stumble, and fill me with Your Spirit so that I can live for You. Thank You for loving me. Thank You for the gifts, talents and circumstances You have given me. I commit to using my gifts to glorify You… starting today. I pray this in Jesus’ name, Amen.

March 21st 2025 – Live and Abundant Life

“So I sent messengers to them, saying, ‘I am doing a great work, so that I cannot come down. Why should the work cease while I leave it and go down to you?’” (Nehemiah 6:3)

In the midst of our daily struggles, it’s essential to recognize that the enemy is always lurking, seeking to distract and deter us from the important work God has called us to. Satan thrives on chaos and despair; his aim is to drag us down into misery. He may present fleeting joys that ultimately lead to heartache, but we must remember that God offers a path filled with true joy and eternal hope.

“The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.” (John 10:10)

To resist the devil effectively, we need to invite Jesus to transform us from within. Merely going through the motions of faith isn’t enough; it’s about allowing Christ to renew our hearts and minds. If we cling to our old ways, we risk missing out on the fullness of life that God desires for us. Don’t let the enemy take hold—surrender to God and rely on His Spirit to guide you along His path.

“God can bless you, wherever you are.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, forgive me for the times I’ve let the enemy lead me astray from Your purpose. Open my eyes to Your truth and my ears to Your voice through Your Word, the Holy Spirit, and the community of believers around me. I desire Your ways above all else! In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

March 5th 2025 – In Your Peace, I will Find My Way

“You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in You.” (Isaiah 26:3)

In the midst of life’s storms, it is easy to feel overwhelmed, especially for those grappling with addiction or burdens that weigh heavily on the heart. The world often throws distractions and temptations our way, leaving us feeling lost and unsure of our path. Yet, in these moments of struggle, we can find solace in the promise of God’s peace.

Isaiah 26:3 reminds us that perfect peace is reserved for those who keep their minds steadfast and trust in the Lord. Trust is not merely a passive acceptance; it is an active decision to lean on God’s understanding rather than our own. When we place our faith in Him, we invite His peace to wash over us, soothing our anxious thoughts and guiding us on our journey.

Imagine walking through a dense fog, where every step feels uncertain and treacherous. But then, a light pierces through the gloom—a beacon of hope showing the way. This is what God’s peace does for us. It illuminates our path, allowing us to navigate through our struggles with clarity and strength.

When we surrender our worries and addictions to Him, we create space for His serenity to fill our hearts. This doesn’t mean that challenges will vanish; rather, it signifies that we do not face them alone. God walks with us, offering His guiding hand.

Take a few moments to sit in silence. Reflect on what burdens you are carrying today. Breathe deeply, and as you exhale, visualize releasing those burdens into God’s hands. Allow His peace to envelop you, reminding you that in His embrace, you will always find your way.

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, thank You for the gift of Your peace that surpasses all understanding. In moments of doubt and fear, help me to trust in You fully. I lay down my struggles and addictions at Your feet, knowing that with You, I can find my way. Fill my heart with Your serenity, and let it guide me in every step I take. May I always remember that in Your presence, I am safe and loved. In Jesus’s name, Amen.

February 19th 2025 – Faith Over Fear

“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 lives, we often find ourselves standing at the crossroads of faith and fear. The world around us can be overwhelming, filled with uncertainties, challenges, and the unknown. Fear can grip our hearts, cloud our minds, and lead us to doubt the very promises God has given us. Yet, amid these storms, we are reminded of the profound truth that faith is our anchor.

Consider the story of Peter walking on water. When he stepped out of the boat, his faith propelled him toward Jesus. However, as the winds howled and the waves crashed around him, fear crept in, causing him to sink. In that moment of desperation, Peter cried out, and Jesus reached out to save him. This story illustrates a critical lesson: faith and fear can coexist, but it is our choice to focus on faith that enables us to rise above fear.

Take a moment today to identify a fear that has been holding you back. Write it down, and then write a corresponding promise from Scripture that counters that fear. Spend time in prayer, asking God to help you replace that fear with faith. Consider sharing your experience with someone who may also be struggling, and encourage them to embrace faith over fear.

As you navigate life’s uncertainties, remember that with God, you are never alone. Let your faith rise above your fears, and embrace the beautiful future He has prepared for you.

Trust that even in the midst of challenges, His plans for you are filled with hope and purpose.

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, thank You for the incredible plans You have for us. Help us to remember that when fear rises, we can cling to our faith in You. Teach us to look to You as our source of strength and courage. May we trust in Your love and guidance, knowing that You are always with us, even in the darkest days. Let our hearts be filled with the assurance that faith overcomes fear. In Jesus’ name, we pray, Amen.

February 5th 2025 – Kairos (In God’s Perfect Time)

“But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman…” (Galatians 4:4)

In our fast-paced world, waiting is often seen as a burden rather than a blessing. Yet, in the biblical context, the concept of “Kairos” reminds us that there are moments in life that are filled with divine significance. “Kairos” refers to the opportune time set by God—a moment when His purposes intersect with our lives in profound ways.

As we reflect on the lyrics of the song “Kairos,” we are reminded that every day holds promise in God’s perfect timing. In the stillness of dawn, when the world is quiet, we can hear His gentle whisper guiding us through the uncertainties of life. Just as the dawn brings light after the night, God’s timing brings clarity and hope amid our struggles.

When we encounter challenges—mountains that seem insurmountable or moments of doubt—it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. However, the assurance of God’s presence reminds us that we are never alone. Every tear we shed is collected with tender care, and every moment of fear can be transformed into a testimony of faith.

In the chorus of the song, we sing, “Kairos, in Your perfect time, every season has a rhyme.” This serves as a powerful declaration that God has a purpose for every season of our lives, even when we cannot see it. Waiting may be difficult, but it is in those times that we grow stronger in faith and learn to trust Him more deeply.

As you go through your day, remember that every moment is an opportunity to experience God’s love and grace. Trust in His perfect timing, knowing that you are held in His embrace. Allow the beauty of Kairos to unfold in your life, and watch for the divine moments that shape your journey.

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, thank You for the gift of Kairos—Your perfect timing in my life. Help me to embrace the seasons of waiting with a hopeful heart. May I trust that You are working all things for my good, even when I cannot see the bigger picture. Teach me to find peace in Your presence and to recognize the moments You have ordained for me. Strengthen my faith, so I can wait with anticipation for the good You have in store. 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.

January 4th 2025 – The Depth of Jesus’ Love

“Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.” (John 15:13)

In a world often marred by division and misunderstanding, the love of Jesus stands as a beacon of hope and unity. Reflecting on His sacrifice, we are reminded of the profound depth of His love for us. Jesus didn’t just preach love; He embodied it through His actions and ultimate sacrifice on the cross.

Consider the moments when Jesus walked among us. He reached out to the marginalized, healed the sick, and offered grace to the sinner. Each act was a testament to His unwavering love. When He dined with sinners, He didn’t just tolerate them; He celebrated them, showing us that love knows no boundaries.

As we reflect on His love, let us remember that it is unconditional. Jesus loves us not for what we can do but simply because we are His creation. This love invites us into a relationship where we can be vulnerable, bring our burdens, and find solace in His embrace.

Spend a few moments in silence, reflecting on how Jesus’ love has impacted your life. Think about ways you can share that love with others this week. Whether through acts of kindness, words of affirmation, or simply being present for someone in need, let your heart be moved to action.

“Jesus’ love is not just a feeling; it’s a call to action. As we go forth, let us carry His love in our hearts and share it with the world, knowing that in doing so, we fulfill His commandment to love one another.”

Prayer:

Dear Jesus, thank You for Your incredible love that surpasses all understanding. Help me to comprehend the depth of Your sacrifice and to reflect that love in my daily life. May I be a vessel of Your grace and compassion, reaching out to others as You reached out to me. Teach me to love without conditions, just as You have loved me. In Your heavenly name, Amen.

Put your faith and trust in Jesus! If you do not know Him personally, please read below.

Jesus Christ says, “Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him” (Revelation 3:20).

The Bible promises eternal life to all who receive Christ: “God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life” (1 John 5:11-13).

November 20th 2024 – Coming Home to You

Please watch this first

“Jesus answered, ‘I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.’” (John 14:6)

The song “I’m Coming Home to You” beautifully encapsulates the journey each of us takes as we navigate through the complexities of life. In the first verse, we find ourselves wandering in the silence of the night, chasing after fleeting desires and earthly pursuits. This imagery resonates with our human experience—times when we feel lost or distant from God. Yet, the comforting reminder is that His love shines like an unwavering light, guiding us back home.

As we move into the chorus, we declare our intention to return home to God. This act of coming home signifies more than just physical location; it represents a spiritual return to the heart of our Creator. We acknowledge that true peace and release are found only in His embrace. It’s a recognition that, in the warmth of His love, our restless souls can finally find rest.

The second verse reminds us that even in our darkest valleys of doubt and fear, we are never truly alone. God’s gentle whisper calls to us, inviting us to lay down our burdens and seek solace in Him. It’s in these moments of surrender that we discover the depth of His grace, leading us back to our rightful place in His presence.

In the third verse, with the dawn of a new day, we are reminded of God’s unending grace and the fresh start it offers. How beautiful it is to envision Him welcoming us back with open arms, filling the voids that life may have created in our hearts. This image of restoration is a powerful reminder of God’s faithfulness.

Finally, final verses evokes a sense of commitment and belonging. No longer do we need to run or hide from our struggles; in His love, we find our true identity. His mercy flows abundantly, and in His presence, we discover our true home.

The journey of life often leads us to feelings of being lost or distant from God, but His unwavering love guides us back home. Return to God for the source of true peace and rest, even in times of doubt and fear. Remember that in God’s embrace, we can find our true identity and restoration.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, thank You for being my safe haven and guiding light. Help me to recognize when I’ve wandered away and give me the courage to return to You. May I find peace in Your arms and grace in Your presence. Let me always remember that I am coming home to You, where my heart finds rest and my soul is renewed. In Jesus’ Holy name, Amen.

Spend a few moments in silence, reflecting on your journey to God. Are there areas where you feel distant? Invite Him to draw you closer, knowing that He is always waiting with open arms.

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. He loves us and wants to help us. If you have not asked Jesus to be your Lord and Savior, please click here

November 13th 2024 – Embracing the Light of Christ

“When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, ‘I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.'” (John 8:12)

In a world frequently shrouded in uncertainty, turmoil, and shadows, the assurance that Jesus is the Light of the World offers us a profound sense of hope and direction. His radiant light serves as a guiding beacon, helping us navigate the complexities and challenges of life. When we choose to follow Him, we not only accept His guidance but also invite His transformative presence into our hearts, renewing our spirits and illuminating our minds.

Think back to moments in your life when you felt adrift or burdened by the weight of your circumstances. How did seeking solace in Jesus alter your view of those challenges? His divine light does more than merely dispel the darkness; it equips us with the strength to shine brightly for others. As we reflect His love and grace, we become sources of hope and encouragement for our families, friends, and communities.

“His light illuminates our path, guiding us through life’s uncertainties. When we choose to follow Him, we invite His presence into our lives, transforming our hearts and minds.”

Prayer:

Heavenly father, we thank You for being our unwavering light, guiding us through the fog of uncertainty. Help us to walk confidently in Your illumination and to share that light with those around us. May our lives radiate Your love and hope, shining brightly in a world that is often desperate for bFather, 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
