12/22/2025 “One person considers one day more sacred than another; another considers every day alike.” — Romans 14:5  God is far more invested in your success, prosperity, and health than you may realize. Heaven pours into your day so that you can function in victory. You are not merely trying to have a good day—you are God’s child, a possessor of His life and nature. Scripture declares, “Now are we the sons of God.” That truth alone should shape your expectation for every si

12/21/2025 “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   Most people want progress in life, but progress does not happen by accident. Success must be planned for and intentionally pursued. Many believers wait for God to do something extraordinary while neglecting the responsibility to prepare. Yet hoping for increase without planning for it only leads to frustration

12/20/2025 “As it is written: ‘I have made you a father of many nations.’ He is our father in the sight of God, in whom he believed—the God who gives life to the dead and calls into being things that were not.” (Romans 4:17)   It is often said, “If you don’t stand for something, you will fall for anything.” This is especially true in a world filled with counterfeits—many of which closely resemble the real thing. Counterfeits are not always obvious; they often look convincing

12/19/2025 “Wealth attracts many friends, but even the closest friend of the poor person deserts them” —  Proverbs 19:4 Poverty is a painful and dehumanizing reality, and Scripture does not romanticize it. While God deeply loves the poor, lack itself was never His design for His children. Through Christ, God has made provision for a life marked by dignity, sufficiency, and peace. One of the great tragedies in the world is when people are consumed by anxiety over food, shelter

12/18/2025 “And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sarah's womb. He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God.” (Romans 4:19–20)   It is impossible to live for God without faith, because faith is the oxygen of the Christian life. Scripture tells us repeatedly that  the just shall live by faith  (Habakkuk 2:4; Romans 1:17;

12/17/2025 “If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer” (Matthew 21:22 NIV) An attitude of faith is essential to living in the victory Christ has secured for us. Faith determines whether we rise or fall, overcome or give in, remain strong or grow weary. To live victoriously, your mindset must be rooted in God’s Word and in what Jesus has already accomplished on your behalf. When faith governs your heart, the fruit of the recreated human spirit becomes evi

12/16/2025 "No unbelief or distrust made him [Abraham] waver concerning the promise of God, but he grew strong and was empowered by faith as he gave praise and glory to God" — Romans 4:20 (AMPC) Child of God, no matter how things may have unfolded up to this point, I have good news for you: you will end well . The enemy may have tried to knock you down, but here you are—still standing. That alone is proof of the grace of God at work in your life. Every trial, every challenge,

12/15/2025 “I want you to excel also in this gracious act of giving.” —  2 Corinthians 8:7   As the year draws to a close, God is calling us to demonstrate our faith and love for Him through giving. Giving is never about God trying to take something from us; it is always about Him positioning us to receive more. Scripture tells us that without faith it is impossible to please God, and giving is one of the clearest expressions of faith (Hebrews 11:6). Giving is not determined

12/14/2025 “Jesus said to the woman, ‘Your faith has saved you; go in peace.’” — Luke 7:50   We are very familiar with expressing love through giving. We give gifts to our children because we love them. We bless our spouses, parents, neighbors, and colleagues as tangible expressions of our affection. Giving as an expression of love is natural to us—and it is not foreign to God. In fact, it began with Him. John 3:16 declares, “For God so loved the world that He gave His only b

12/13/2025 MUCH FORGIVENESS PRODUCES MUCH LOVE   “I tell you, her sins—and they are many—have been forgiven, so she has shown Me much love. But a person who is forgiven little shows only little love.” —  Luke 7:47   Do you have anything to be thankful for? Of course you do. Take a moment and reflect on your life from the beginning of the year until now—surely, there is something for which you can thank God. And if you still find it difficult to identify one thing, here is an

12/12/2025 "A new commandment I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so also you must love one another. By this, all men will know that you are My disciples, if you love one another.” —  John 13:34–35   Love is the hallmark of the Christian life. Scripture tells us in 1 John 4:8,  “Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.”  Love is not only who God is—it is also what God does. Love is active. Love expresses itself. Love gives. John 3:16 reveal

12/11/2025 "Among the other nations, Judah and Israel became symbols of a cursed nation. But no longer! Now I will rescue you and make you both a symbol and a source of blessing. So don't be afraid. Be strong, and get on with rebuilding the Temple!" —  Zechariah 8:13 The blessing of God is expressed through generosity. Yesterday, we saw that the Lord Jesus said,  “It is more blessed to give than to receive.”   (Acts 20:35). God blesses us not just so we can enjoy His goodnes

12/10/2025 “In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus Himself said: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive’” (Acts 20:35). Many of God’s people are eager to receive, but far fewer are excited to give. We all love receiving—no one becomes upset when a blessing comes their way. Yet, in so many churches today, the mindset of receiving dominates, while the consciousness of giving is often sec

12/9/2025 “All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ” (Ephesians 1:3).   What you see in the natural realm is not the full story. There is a greater realm—the spiritual realm—that governs and influences the physical. The physical realm only exists because of the spiritual, and for that reason, you must not accept everything you see around you as final. As a

12/8/2025 “I have glorified You on the earth; I have finished the work which You gave Me to do” (John 17:4). Many people go through life hustling and striving, constantly chasing the next big thing. It becomes an endless pursuit—seeking value, relevance, and fulfillment in external things. Yet, no matter how much they attain, they remain unsatisfied. The issue is not what they lack; it is their lack of understanding of what has already been DONE for them. When you truly under

12/7/2025 “And He has put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the Lord.” (Psalm 40:3)   When God puts a new song in your mouth, He is announcing a shift—a divine intervention, a fresh operation of His grace. This new song is not based on musical gifting or vocal ability. Even if you cannot hold a note, the Spirit-given song in your heart is powerful and acceptable in His sight. And this month of gratitude, God has

12/6/2025 “I will praise the name of God with song and magnify Him with thanksgiving” (Psalm 69:30 There is a secret to living far above adversity—a divine strategy that confuses the enemy and disarms every challenge of life. That secret is thanksgiving . Not the ordinary kind that responds to blessings already seen, but the kind that makes no sense to the natural mind. The kind of thanksgiving that causes others to look at your situation and wonder, “How can he be thankful i

12/5/2025 “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God” (Philippians 4:6).   Even when life doesn’t make sense—when situations contradict your expectations and you have no earthly explanation—you can still trust God. His faithfulness is not defined by the circumstances you face. Malachi 3:6 declares, “For I am the Lord, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.” He is the unc

12/4/2025 “And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the Name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him” (Colossians 3:17).   A heart full of thanksgiving cannot be a heart full of complaints. The two cannot coexist. Complaining is a contaminant—it pollutes the spirit, darkens the mind, and destroys the atmosphere of faith. This is why Scripture continually urges us to maintain an attitude of thanksgiving. “In everything give thanks, for

12/3/2025 “But for you who revere My name, the Sun of Righteousness will rise with healing in His rays. And you will go out and frolic like well-fed calves” (Malachi 4:2).   Malachi 4 gives us a prophetic picture of what happens on the day of salvation. Verse 1 declares, “Surely the day is coming; it will burn like a furnace. All the arrogant and every evildoer will be stubble… not a root or a branch will be left to them.” The “arrogant” and “evildoers” represent all who rej
