ACTS 2:38

A desire to preach is commendable, but desire alone is not enough. Faithful preaching is born not only from passion but from disciplined preparation. God has not called ministers to entertain an audience but to rightly handle His Word (2 Timothy 2:15).

The preacher who neglects study, prayer, and careful exposition risks performing rather than proclaiming. The pulpit is not a stage for personalityβ€”it is a sacred place where God's truth must be faithfully declared. Every sermon should be shaped in the study before it is delivered from the pulpit.

As H.B. Charles Jr. wisely said, "A desire to preach without a discipline to prepare is just a desire to perform." Let every preacher labor in private before speaking in public, knowing that diligent preparation is an act of worship and love for Christ's church. Faithful preaching begins long before the first word is spoken.

Somewhere along the line, we started treating exhaustion like a spiritual badge of honor.

Being busy for God is not the same thing as being fruit-bearing.

Jesus lived a perfectly impactful life, yet He never rushed, was never panicked, and frequently stepped away from the crowds to pray and rest.

To every pastor, leader, and volunteer in the Alabama District: your soul needs quiet.

Don't sacrifice your connection with the Creator on the altar of constant activity. Take a breath today.

"Be still, and know that I am God..." β€” Psalm 46:10

When people applaud you, give God the glory.

When lives are changed through your ministry, give God the glory.

When prayers are answered through your faithfulness, give God the glory.

When the Holy Spirit moves through you in ways you never expected, stay humble enough to remember who made it possible.

You are the vessel.

He is the power.

You are the instrument.

He is the source.

You may plant.

You may water.

You may serve.

You may speak.

But God is the One who gives the increase. β€” 1 Corinthians 3:6

Never allow spiritual gifting to become spiritual pride.

Never let the platform become more important than the presence of God.

Never let people celebrate you so much that you forget to bow before Him.

The same God who can use you greatly can also remind you how desperately you need Him.

That’s why humility matters.

Because the moment we start believing that the work is happening because of us, we’ve forgotten that it was always happening because of Him.

So stay teachable.

Stay prayerful.

Stay grateful.

Stay dependent.

And whenever God does something amazing through your life, don’t take the credit.

Point people back to Jesus.

Let your greatest testimony never be,

β€œLook what I can do.”

But,

β€œLook what God can do through a surrendered life.”

Because without Him, we have no power.

Without Him, we have no purpose.

Without Him, we can do nothing.

All the glory belongs to God.

Spiritual dryness rarely begins with rebellion.

It usually begins with neglect.

One missed prayer.

One skipped devotion.

One church service taken lightly.

One compromise that seemed harmless.

Nothing dramatic.

Nothing obvious.

Just small decisions repeated over time.

And little by little, the fire that once burned brightly starts to fade.

The passion weakens.

The conviction softens.

The desire for God's presence becomes less urgent.

Until one day, you realize you feel far from the God you once felt close to.

Not because He moved.

But because you slowly stopped pursuing Him.

Distance from God rarely happens all at once.

It happens one neglected prayer at a time.

One postponed moment in His presence.

One day of spiritual hunger ignored after another.

And what once felt like a flowing river becomes a dry riverbed.

Busy, but empty.

Religious, but thirsty.

Active, but disconnected.

"Come back before your soul gets thirsty."

The enemy doesn't always try to destroy your faith overnight.

Sometimes he simply distracts you long enough for your relationship with God to weaken.

Because a dry soul becomes vulnerable.

Vulnerable to temptation.

Vulnerable to compromise.

Vulnerable to believing that God is distant when you've simply stopped drawing near.

But the good news is this:

The same God who filled your life before can fill it again.

The stream can flow again.

The fire can burn again.

The passion can return again.

Revival does not begin with better circumstances.

It begins with repentance.

With prayer.

With a decision to return to the Source.

"For my people have committed two evils; they have forsaken me the fountain of living waters..."
β€” Jeremiah 2:13

If your soul feels dry today, don't ignore it.

Return to the well before the thirst becomes your normal.

Sometimes, the old ways return not because we want them to, but because we’ve slowly drifted from the One who keeps us grounded.

Intimacy with God is not a β€œnice to have” it is where our strength, discernment, peace, and transformation flow from. When we stop seeking Him, old habits can quietly find their way back.

Today, ask yourself: Am I still intentional about my relationship with God?

Go back to the place of prayer. Go back to the Word. Go back to intimacy.

Stay close to God. There is a version of you that only flourishes in His presence. 🀍

23/08/2026

Maybe you've been asking God to restore your old life.

The old relationship.
The old confidence.
The old version of yourself.

You keep saying,
"Lord, I just want things to go back to how they were."

But what if God doesn't want to take you backward?
What if He wants to make you new?

Sometimes restoration isn't about getting everything back. It's about becoming someone different because of what you've been through.

God didn't bring you through the fire just to return you to the person who walked into it.

He wants to transform you.

Your pain can deepen your faith.
Your failures can teach you humility.
Your losses can teach you dependence.
Your brokenness can become the place where God builds something stronger.

So stop asking God to make your life look like it did before.

Maybe the old version of you was comfortable, but God has called you to become more.

You don't need your old life back to have a beautiful future.

Let God create something new.
Let Him change your heart.
Let Him reshape your priorities.
Let Him rebuild your identity around Him.

Because sometimes God doesn't restore the old version of you.

He makes you into someone new.

-

If you're in a season where God is breaking old patterns and transforming you into someone new, Break Me to Make Me may be the book you need.

A devotional journey about brokenness, transformation, surrender, and allowing God to make something new out of the life you thought was falling apart.

Bago tumaas yang kilay mo at questionin, "Bakit naman ako iiwas sa ka church mate ko?"

Kapatid, nais kitang ingatan sa mga taong maaring maging dahilan ng pag hina ng pananampalataya at pag back slide mo.

Tandaan: Na ang ka-Church Mate mo bagama't Kristyano ay tao pa rin, Hindi perpekto at nag kakamali. Kaya bago ka nila mahatak sa mali, dapat makilala mo ang 4 na π—žπ—” 𝗖𝗛𝗨π—₯𝗖𝗛 π— π—”π—§π—˜ 𝗑𝗔 𝗗𝗔𝗣𝗔𝗧 π—œπ—ͺ𝗔𝗦𝗔𝗑 𝗠𝗒.

1. π—–π—›π—œπ—¦π— π—’π—–π—žπ—˜π—₯𝗦 | Kawikaan 26:20-22
β€’ Ito yung mga taong nag sasalita ng mga hindi magagandang Salita patungkol sa ibang tao tapos out of knowhere ikekwento sayo. BAKIT? Chismis Yarn?

β€’ Yung hindi mo naman kilala yung kinekwento maya maya nasasalinan ka na ng galit kahit walang ginawa sayo yung taong kinekwento. IMPARTATION ang tawag dyan!

β€’ Para sa taong mahilig mag kalat ng Chismis: Tandaan mo na hindi mo lang naibaba ang taong kinekwento mo, Naibaba mo din ang SARILI MO, Dahil pinapakita mo sa mga taong kinekwentuhan mo ang tunay na ugali na meron ka, Time will come ikaw na ang iiwasan nila dahil kilala ka nilang mapanirang puri.

β€’ Kung minsan, Napag uusapan talaga ang sablay ng isang tao, Ok ito kung ang motibo ay matulungan ang taong nagkamali o sumablay, Ngunit kung pag uusapan nyo lang pero wala naman kayong ginawa para tulungan syang maitama ang mali o makabangon, Aba Ka-Churchmate, Chismis lang yan!

2. 𝗖𝗒𝗠𝗙𝗒π—₯π—§π—˜π—₯ | 1 Corinthians 5:11
β€’ Akala mo Partner in Christ, Yun pala Partner in Crime!

β€’ Ito yung mga taong pag wala kang devotion sasabihin sayo "Ayos lang iyan!" O kaya tinamad ka sa responsibility mo sa ministry at sasabihing... "Tao lang tayo napapagod din, pabayaan mo na muna yan."

β€’ Kung minsan sila yung TAMAD sa ministry or HYPOCRITE Na kayang kaya pag sabayin ang KABANALAN at KASALANAN at nag hahanap sila ng KAMUKHA nila. Ka church mate, Iwasan mo sila at wag kang turulad sakanila.

β€’ Imbis na encourage ka sa TAMA mas lalo ka pang ni-Encourage gumawa ng MALI!
β€’ Yun pala, Nag hahanap lang ito ng ka-Partner gumawa ng kasalanan! Kaya ka kinakampihan sa Mali!
β€’ Pag may ganito kang ka-Church mate, ABA! Natagpuan mo ang Demonyo sa mukha ng Kaibigan mo.
β€’ Yung akala mong COMFORT Yun pala ay TOLERATION.

3. π—–π—’π— π—£π—Ÿπ—”π—œπ—‘π—˜π—₯ | 2 Timothy 4:14-15
β€’ Bagay na tawag din sakanila ay CONTRACTOR, Kasi sila yung mahilig mag KONTRA at mag REKLAMO.

β€’ Hindi sila mahilig sumunod at sumuporta sa mga mission at gawain ng church, Gusto lang nila ay Manilip ng mali, Sumita ng sablay ng iba, Kung minsan pati sa Pastor ang dami nilang sinasabing hindi maganda. At kapag kasama mo sila, maari kang mahawaan ng Espiritu ng hindi pag sunod sa church.

β€’ Mga kapatid, Naligtas tayo through faith, at napapatibay natin ang ating faith through church. Kaya kapag napapasahan tayo ng Espiritu ng palareklamo, makakaapekto ito sa ating pag lago sa pananampalataya. Ka-Church Mate, Layuan mo ang mga tulad nila!

β€’ But what if may mali naman talaga? Na ayon mismo sa Bible ay hindi tama na sundin ang pinapagawa? Ang tanong ko sayo kapatid, Bakit kaanib ka pa sakanila? So instead na mag kalat reklamo simulan mo ng mag hanap ng simbahan na "TAMA" para sayo.

4. π—–π—’π— π—£π—˜π—§π—œπ—§π—’π—₯ | Filipos 2:3
β€’ Ito yung mahilig mag kumpara o makipag paligasahan o pagalingan sa loob ng church. My friend, ang simbahan ay hindi paligsahan, Kung sino pinaka magaling o hindi.

β€’ Dito pumapasok ang insecurities, Hindi tayo nagiging masaya sa tagumpay ng ating ka-Church Mate. Naiinis o nalulungkot kapag ang ating Kapatid ay may nagagawang mabuti para sa simbahan. Kapag gusto mo sayo ang spotlight, Aba ka-Church Mate, Baka "GLORY TO ME" ang gusto mo hindi "GLORY TO GOD"

β€’ Iwasan ang mga ganitong tao, Kung pumasok ka sa church na mabuti at malinis ang puso, baka mahawaan ka ng karumihan at maling puso.

Lesson: Kahit believer ang isang tao, kung palagi siyang nagdadala ng negativity, compromise, gossip, pride, rebellion, o doubt, maaari nitong maapektuhan ang spiritual life natin.

Hindi lahat ng tao ay dapat magkaroon ng malalim na access sa buhay, isip, at spiritual journey natin.

Love everyone, but don't trust everyone equally.
May mga taong maaari nating mahalin at ipanalangin, pero hindi nangangahulugang kailangan nating maging malapit sa kanila.

bilang Christian:
Love people. Pray for people. Help people. But be wise about who influences you.

Ang goal ng separation ay hindi rejection; ang goal nito ay protection.
Hindi para sabihin na β€œMas mabuti ako sa kanila,” kundi β€œAyaw kong mawala ang faith na ipinagkatiwala sa akin ng Diyos.”
