In Matthew 5:13–14, Jesus said, “You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men. You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden.” There's a call on our lives to be fishers of men and followers of Jesus. By that high calling, we become leaders. Jesus said that we are the salt and the light in this world. He gives us the power to have an impact a...

Psalm 71:16–18 says, “I will come and proclaim your mighty acts, Sovereign Lord; I will proclaim your righteous deeds, yours alone. Since my youth, God, you have taught me, and to this day I declare your marvelous deeds. Even when I am old and gray, do not forsake me, my God, till I declare your power to the next generation, your mighty acts to all who are to come.” Let's keep moving in God's strength until we've shown the next generation who He is. God’s power lets us be a demonstration through...

Psalm 119:122 says, “Be surety for Your servant for good; Do not let the proud oppress me.” Trusting in God's surety brings peace. He is our guarantor, providing strength and provision when ours runs out. By surrendering our worries and fears to the Lord, we can experience His guidance and unfailing love. Today, cultivate trust through prayer. Meditate on and study God’s Word. Choose to release control and find the peace you need in His unwavering care. Join us every Wednesday at 7:00 PM EST at ...

In 1 Thessalonians 1:5, Paul emphasizes that the gospel is not just about words but also the power of transformation. In this generation, people are unlikely to read the Bible or even have the attention span to comprehend it. Your life and mine become a living testimony of God at work. We are this generation's show-and-tell. If we allow the Spirit of God to work in us, people will witness our transformation and recognize that only God could have brought about such a transformation. Let's strive ...

In Exodus, Aaron spoke all the Lord's words to Moses and performed signs before the people. When they heard that the Lord had seen their affliction, they believed in God and worshiped Him. They acknowledged that God was coming to rescue them and bring them freedom. Today, God is speaking directly to you, saying, “I will take you out of where you are and remove the foreign powers that have no right to be there. I will bring you into your inheritance and shape you into the person that I destined y...

In Philippians 3:12, the apostle Paul says, “Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me.” He who received such a rich revelation of Christ and even wrote most of the New Testament, said, “I haven't arrived.” Paul wasn't ashamed to admit it. Sometimes, as Christians, we can get discouraged when old passions rise again and we question ourselves. We think I dealt with that already. By now, I ...

In Romans 7, Paul acknowledges the human struggle with sin and our inability to do good consistently. He recognizes the presence of sin within the human race and the battle between our desire to follow God's law and the influence of wrongdoing. Paul finds hope in Jesus Christ as the one who can rescue us from sin and expresses gratitude to God for our deliverance. He acknowledges that while he serves God's law, in his mind, his sinful nature remains a slave to the law of sin. He then shares the ...

Luke 13:4–5 says, “Or those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them, do you think that they were worse sinners than all other men who dwelt in Jerusalem? I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.” We remember the suddenness of the day that the towers fell in New York City. Sunshine turned to sorrow, and clear skies to a dust-filled gray. I'm thankful I had the chance to share the way of salvation with some people in the towers. Before people face that ...

In Exodus 4, God gave Moses and Aaron two signs. The first was facing their fears, and the second was a symbolic representation of the human heart's corruption. Moses and Aaron faced their fears, not relying on their strength or wisdom but on the power of God. They boldly approached the leader of the most powerful army in the world at that time and demanded freedom for their people. They became a sign of hope for those in captivity, proving that God was with them. It's time to take control of yo...

In Exodus 4, Moses expressed his fear and doubt, questioning whether the people would believe him. God asked Moses what he had in his hand. When Moses threw it on the ground, his rod turned into a serpent. Moses ran away in fear like we often run from our fears. God needed someone who wouldn't run and could face their fears. He told Moses to reach out and grab the serpent by the tail. When Moses did, it turned back into a rod. This story symbolizes that we should walk by faith, not by fear. We s...

If you're at a point where your life is clearly on the wrong track, I have good news for you. Jesus can save you from your sin and change you from the inside out if you decide to turn towards Him and away from what is wrong. God wants us to know what it is like to be fully accepted. He wants our darkness to be turned to light. He wants us to know what living at peace with God is. It can happen to you today. Simply say, “Lord Jesus, I want you to be my Lord and Savior. Make me your child. Change ...

In 2 Corinthians 12:10, Paul the apostle declares, “That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.” When we let go of our strength and start relying on God, His power shines through us. When we rely on ourselves, we tend to boast and dictate how things should be done. We start acknowledging our need for God when we recognize our weaknesses and depend on Him. In doing so, we discover that t...

In Mark 5, a man with an unclean spirit lived among the tombs, and nobody could control him. This man represents people trapped in a place of death and painful memories. It's a bleak future if that's where you're heading. You may have sought help from counselors, friends, or even doctors, but nothing has tamed the deep pride of your heart. I want you to know there is hope. Turn to God, who can genuinely understand and heal your pain. Trust in His love and forgiveness. Don't let your past continu...

Not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were influential; not many were of noble birth. But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong.

Everything seems to be broken down in this nation. It's time to call out to God; we shouldn't wait until it's too late. I pray that God would help us move beyond our natural thinking and what our eyes can see. Let's not settle for mediocrity when God wants to do miraculous things around us. Let's ask God for the grace to believe in Him. Our children can be set free from captivity in our school systems. Our families can be restored, and our marriages can be rebuilt. We need to pray that immoralit...

The heart of this nation is sick, and we need God to heal our country. He can bring healing, not just to individuals but to whole nations. There may be reasons why we think God shouldn't intervene, but there is no reason why He can't. Lately, my prayer has been to appeal to God's mercy, knowing it will endure forever. I know He's a God of justice and judgment, but mercy is at the heart of everything He does. I encourage you today to call out. Jesus is near, and now is the time to lift our voices...

The book of 1 Corinthians 1 tells us God chooses the weak, the nobodies, and the nothings of this world. He transforms us, gives us power over our fears, and sends us a message of redemption. The power of Hell was destroyed when Jesus Christ rose from the dead. The good news is that the Devil cannot hold you anymore. Your freedom begins the moment you believe. Despite challenging circumstances and strong addictions, God declares that you will be set free. Choose to believe Him and His words. Sur...

In Acts 27, even though the ship was sinking, Paul's unwavering confidence in God inspired others to hold on. Amidst the chaos, the waves threatened to destroy the boat, and the odds of survival were almost zero. As others witnessed Paul’s faith, they found courage and held onto whatever they could as the ship fell apart. In our generation, when lives seem to be crumbling, your trust in God can inspire others to cling to the cross. The cross remains trustworthy and capable of guiding us to safet...

I want to tell you today that in Christ, nothing is lost. He restores everything life and Hell have tried to take away from you. He formed you and knew you before you were conceived in your mother's womb. God said through the prophet Jeremiah, I know my plans for you. These plans are for good, not evil, to bring you to a desired end. God knows what He can do in your life. He can place a song of joy, beauty, and praise in you. You won't be able to contain it!

Since my twenties, I believe there will be a great turning to God in a calamity, fear, and crisis season. The Lord spoke this to my heart, assuring me that countless people would turn to Him in such vast quantities that they couldn't even be counted.

It doesn't matter our age, wealth, or ethnicity; the call ...

A man of God named Leonard Ravenhill once wisely said, “Instead of running all over the country, chasing after something happening somewhere else, we can simply go into our prayer closet and be in the presence of the same God.” He reminded us that not everything we encounter is truly from God.

So many people are afraid of allowing God to touch them. They’re scared to be disappo...

James 4:6 says: “But He gives more grace.

It's only in Christ that this can be done. Left to ourselves, we'd spend our whole day thinking about ourselves. It takes the grace of God and a humble heart to say, “God, I can't break free from the chains of this mind of mind that want to govern me. My...
