*Good morning partners, friends and well-wishers. Happy Saturday!*

*Will You Come?*

*TODAY’S SCRIPTURE:*

_So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most._
*Hebrews 4:16, NLT*

*TODAY’S WORD:*

Many times, we get our image of God from our natural father. If he was loving and kind, it will help you have the right perception of God. But if he was harsh, condescending, and wasn’t around much, don’t let that negative image distort who your heavenly Father is. God is loving and forgiving. He is for you. He has a great plan for your life. He’s not focused on your failures. He has mercy for every mistake. He’s waiting to gladly welcome you as the father did the prodigal son (Luke 15). All you have to do is take a step toward Him and He comes running toward you with arms wide open. No more living condemned, feeling unworthy. Come boldly to His throne and receive this mercy. You won’t receive it if you go around thinking, “I don’t deserve it. I’m unworthy.” God is calling your name today, saying, “Come to Me.” Will you come? Will you shake off the guilt, the condemnation, the past, and put your shoulders back and see yourself as God sees you—forgiven, redeemed, cleansed, without fault, worthy, and righteous?

*PRAYER FOR TODAY:*

*Father, thank You so much for allowing me to see another blessed day and for the gift of life. Let today be a day of miracles. May Your Holy Angel protect my family not for today but for every day. Please also take care of all my friends every day. Today I surrender to You. We may have plans in mind, but let Your will be done in our lives. Thank You that I can come boldly before You, knowing that as Your child this is my rightful place. Thank You that I don’t have to earn Your favor or be good enough to come into Your presence. I am coming to pray bold prayers and to dream bold dreams. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.*

Good morning partners, friends and well-wishers. Happy Friday!

Last Days? Why Fear?

Today's Scripture
And anyone whose name was not found recorded in the Book of Life was thrown into the lake of fire.
(Revelation 20:15, NLT)

Today's Word
Friend, most people tend to be caught up into achieving every possible thing available in this world other than Salvation. Hardly anyone ever stopped for a moment to realize what's happening in the world. There are wars and talks about war. Crisis crippling the economy of various countries. Sicknesses and diseases rising all over, and less people sharing their faith or beliefs in God. There are failed relationships and indeed, the love of many has grown stone cold.

Anything familiar here? It's time we take thought as to why these things are happening. Scripture tells us what will happen in the last days, also where we would spend eternity. God gave us a choice: love Him, or serve Satan. By accepting Salvation, the result will be eternal life in joy and peace with the Lord (John 3:16). Those who reject the Lord and choose evil, will be cast into the "Lake of Fire" for eternity (Revelation 20:15).

We all may face various challenges in this life. These challenges are there to cement our beliefs and determination to follow the Lord. What matters most is to have our name written in the "Book of Life." Let no sickness, no failed relationship, or no financial loss deter the hard fought faith built up over time. No need to fear when the world seems to be falling apart. As long as you ensure that your name is safely recorded, and you know where you are going, your duty in these terrible times is to remain faithful and steadfast, because the Lord will be waiting with His arms open wide, ready to welcome you into His Kingdom.

Prayer for Today
Father, I thank You for Your plan to save me. I renounce my stubbornness, my foolish pride, and my fears. I give You my heart, my soul, my life, as nothing is permanent in this world but Salvation. I walk humbly in faith trusting You, so I may not lose my grip on You, and end up where I don't belong. In Jesus' Name, Amen

*Good morning partners, friends and well-wishers. Happy Thursday!*

*Huddle Up and Pray*

*TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:*

_And when he had said these things, he knelt down and prayed with them all.….._
*Acts 20:36*

*TODAY'S WORD:*

Earlier this year an EF-2 tornado tore through the north Texas community of Runaway Bay. What did the people do in the path of the storm? According to the newspaper, they “huddled up and prayed.”

Have you had an experience like that, when some kind of storm was bearing down on you or affecting the lives of those you loved? What a time to huddle up and pray! In the stomach of the huge fish, Jonah had to huddle up with himself because he was far from any other living soul. It was a lonely prayer, but God heard it.

We are so blessed to have brothers and sisters in Christ who will pray with us and for us and who will bear our burdens to the throne of grace. Though the Lord already knows our circumstances, He wants us to tell Him, to lay out our problems for Him so that He can lighten our load.

Cast your cares upon the Lord today. Pray about your own needs, pray about the needs of others, and pray with others for God’s fresh grace amid every unexpected storm.

*What if we converted every problem, every opportunity, into a prayer?*

*PRAYER FOR TODAY:*

*Father, thank You for loving me and caring for me daily. I come asking for peace in my own heart. When I feel weak, give me strength. When my mind is restless, calm my anxieties and grant me clarity. Help me to walk in ways that are pleasing to You, as I grow closer to You each day. Father, I also lift up the people around me. Please watch over my family, my friends, and my neighbors. I pray that the ones who don’t know You as Lord and Savior of their life will do so before it’s eternally too late. Comfort those who are hurting, provide for those in need, and bring healing to the sick. Give wisdom to our leaders and peace to our communities. Make me an instrument of Your love. In Jesus’ precious name. Amen.*

*Good morning partners, friends and well-wishers. Happy Wednesday!*

*Repentance and Rededication*

*TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:*

_When my soul fainted within me, I remembered the Lord; and my prayer went up to You, into Your holy temple.…_
*Jonah 2:7*

*TODAY'S WORD:*

Though Isaac Watts was the Father of English Hymnody, he was first and foremost a local pastor. On the subject of prayer, he encouraged his congregation to include repentance as a part of their habit in coming to the Lord. He wrote, “We should confess our sins under the sense of the guilt of them, as well as under the deep and mournful impressions of the power of sin in our hearts.”

Jonah’s prayer in chapter 2 is essentially a prayer of repentance and of rededication. Though Jonah was deep in the heart of the ocean, the Lord heard every word. If God listened to Jonah from the depths of the sea, don’t you think He will listen to you no matter where you are or what you’ve done?

Let’s learn to include repentance and rededication in our prayers. The Lord is more willing to forgive us than we are to ask for forgiveness. But we should confess our sins so as to have fresh joy in our daily walk with God.

Thus I abandon every thing that would divide me from God, to whom I have made a surrender of myself.

*PRAYER FOR TODAY:*

*Father, I come to You to thank You for Your new mercies and endless grace. Thank You for keeping me safe and giving me a new day. Lord, please search my heart and shine Your light into any hidden place. I am sorry for the wrong things I have thought, said, or done. Forgive me. I choose to walk closely by Your side and follow Your Word. Take away anything that pulls me away from You. Give me the strength to resist temptation and do what is right. Guide my actions and let my life bring glory to Your name. In Jesus’ precious name. Amen.*

*Good morning partners, friends and well-wishers. Happy Tuesday!*

*He Will Deliver You!*

*Today's Scripture:*

_A righteous man may have many troubles, but the Lord delivers him from them all...._
*Psalm 34:19, NIV.*

*Today's Word:*

No matter what “troubles” you may be facing today, God has promised to deliver you! Notice today’s verse doesn’t say He’s going to deliver you from “some” of your troubles as long you say and do everything perfectly. No, if you are righteous today, then God promises to deliver you from all of your troubles.

How do you know if you are righteous? When you receive Jesus as your Lord and Savior, when you accept His forgiveness and choose to believe that He is working in your life, then you are righteous. The Bible says in Romans 4, that “Abraham believed God and it was counted to him as righteousness.” Your faith in the goodness of God is His righteousness at work in your heart!

If you are facing troubles today, expect that God has a way of escape for you. Expect that He is working behind the scenes on your behalf. Meditate on this verse and let it sink down deeply into your heart. Know that God is good, and He is your Deliverer today!

*Prayer for Today:*

*Father, I come before You acknowledging Your supreme power and Your endless mercy. Thank You for making me righteous by the blood of Jesus. Lord, Your Word promises that when the righteous cry out, You hear them and deliver them from all their troubles. You are my refuge, my fortress, and the shield that surrounds me. I ask for Your divine intervention. Whenever there is anxiety, or spiritual bo***ge in my life, I pray for Your mighty hand of deliverance. Silence the voices of doubt and fear. I surrender my worries, my battles, and my future into Your hands. In Jesus’ name. Amen.*

*Good morning partners, friends and well-wishers. Happy Monday!*

*Two Gates, Two Ways*

*TODAY’S SCRIPTURE:*

_13 “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it..._
*Matthew 7:13-14 NIV*

*TODAY’S WORD:*

Have you ever been accused of being a narrow-minded Christian? Those who level such accusations against us certainly mean it as an insult. According to Jesus, however, that’s the only way to walk if we want to experience abundant life now and eternal life with Him in heaven. But it will require a deliberate choice on our part, because no one automatically drifts onto this pathway.

The broad way is easy to find. In fact, unless you make a conscious choice to avoid it, you’ll find yourself on it. Most people like this wide path because it encompasses all philosophies and belief systems. Everything is acceptable, and everyone’s “truth” is valid. It even seems like the loving path because no one is left out. There are no restrictions, and freedom is unlimited. Or is it?

What those who travel this road fail to realize is that it’s a downward descent into destruction. All the promises it gives of satisfaction and fulfillment end in disappointment because it’s a path without God. But those who enter by the narrow gate of faith in Christ find the peace and joy of a relationship with Him that satisfies the heart. The gate is small because truth guards the entrance. The way is narrow because the Lord protects us with wise boundaries.

Which path are you traveling? You can’t have one foot on each, because they’re going in opposite directions. When you tolerate everything, you’re headed for destruction. But when you choose the narrow way, your life truly begins. You’ll walk with Christ day by day until He walks you home to heaven.

*PRAYER FOR TODAY:*

*Father, thank You that You are Almighty God. Your unfailing love is greater than my failures. Help me to trust You with my decisions and my future. Give me clear directions in my life. Help me to choose the narrow gate where I will find the peace and joy of a relationship with You, that satisfies the heart. I know that You will direct my paths and I can have confidence that Your direction is always the best way to go. Help me be guided in all things by You, and not by my own imperfect judgement. In Jesus' precious Name, Amen.*

09/06/2026

*Good morning partners, friends and well-wishers. Happy Sunday!*

*Times of Shaking*

*TODAY’S SCRIPTURE:*

_Then he brought them out and asked, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” They replied, “Believe in the Lord Jesus and you will be saved, along with everyone in your household.”_
*Acts 16:30–31, NLT*

*TODAY’S WORD:*

In Acts 16, Paul and Silas had been arrested for sharing their faith in the city of Philippi, then beaten with rods and put in prison with chains around their feet. It was unfair, disappointing, and looked like a setback to their ministry. But at midnight, as they were singing and praising God, a great earthquake shook the prison, their chains fell off, and they were given the opportunity to lead the jailer and his household to salvation.

We may not like times of difficulty and shaking, but as with Paul, they are going to shift you to fulfill your destiny. They are not going to stop you. There’s going to be a shift in your finances, in your career, in your health, in your marriage. Out of the shaking, new doors are going to open, new opportunities, and new relationships. Chains of depression, chains of lack and struggle, chains of addiction that have held you back are about to be unfastened. Don’t complain about the shaking. It’s serving a purpose. God is using it to thrust you where you couldn’t go without it.

*PRAYER FOR TODAY:*

*Father, thank You for this new day and the opportunities it gives. Please guide me and direct my steps today. Help me to remember Your presence throughout the day, and to seek Your wisdom and guidance in all that I do. Fill me with Your love, joy, and peace, and help me to share those blessings with others. Give me the strength and courage to face any challenge that may come. Thank You that You, the all-powerful Creator of the universe, are with me, just as You were with Paul and Silas. In the difficult times, when I don’t know how a situation is going to turn out, help me to offer You a sacrifice of praise. I believe You will work out Your plan for me. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.*

09/05/2026

*Good morning partners, friends and well-wishers. Happy Saturday!*

*Stand Still*

*TODAY’S SCRIPTURE:*

_Moses said to the people, “Do not be afraid. Stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which He will accomplish for you today. For the Egyptians whom you see today, you shall see again no more forever.”_
*Exodus 14:13, NKJV*

*TODAY’S WORD:*

Two million Israelites who had escaped slavery in Egypt were trapped by Pharaoh and his army at the Red Sea. When they began to panic and cry out to Moses for a battle plan, Moses’ reply was for them to stand still and watch God fight for them. In those moments, the angel of the Lord, who had been leading the Israelites, and the pillar of cloud moved to a position behind them, cutting them off from Pharaoh. After the Israelites passed through the sea on dry land, Pharaoh’s entire army tried to follow but drowned.

It’s easy to get frustrated with difficulties and try to straighten people out, to force a door to open, to defend yourself against what was said. But that’s when you have to hold your peace, remain at rest, and let God fight that battle. Sometimes the best strategy is to do nothing. Leave it alone. It can also be the hardest strategy, but you have to stand still to see the salvation of the Lord. If you’ll not take matters into your hands, you’ll see God do things that you could never do.

*PRAYER FOR TODAY:*

*Father, this Saturday morning I lift my heart to You, grateful for Your endless love and faithfulness. Thank You for carrying me through the challenges of the week and for the hope You pour into each new day. Fill me with wisdom, courage, and a spirit that seeks Your will above all else. Let Your presence bring comfort to my heart, strength to my soul, and light to those around me. Watch over my family and loved ones, surrounding them with Your peace and protection. May today inspire me to live fully for Jesus and trust completely in Your perfect plan. Thank You that You have power over what I cannot control. When I face problems that seem overwhelming, help me learn to stand still, hold my peace, and remain at rest. I am believing that You will fight my battles and get me to where I’m supposed to be. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.*

09/04/2026

*Good morning partners, friends and well-wishers. Happy Friday!*

*Unprecedented Favor*

*TODAY’S SCRIPTURE:*

_And [so that you can know and understand] what is the immeasurable and unlimited and surpassing greatness of His power in and for us who believe…_
*Ephesians 1:19, AMP.*

*TODAY’S WORD:*

Every one of us can say that, in our lives, God has been good to us. We’ve all seen God’s favor at work. He has protected us, promoted us and opened doors for us. That’s God’s favor. But I believe that in the coming days, God wants to show us unprecedented favor—that’s favor like we haven’t seen before.

In today’s verse, Paul said that in the “ages to come” we would see “the immeasurable, unlimited, surpassing, greatness of God’s favor.” What’s interesting is that Paul wrote this passage ages ago. I believe that we are now living in the “ages to come” that Paul was talking about. I believe you and I are going to see this unprecedented favor!

The word “unprecedented” means “unmatched, unparalleled, for the first time.” In other words, you may have seen God’s favor in the past, but you need to get ready. You haven’t seen anything yet. What God has in your future is going to be bigger, better, greater—unprecedented! He is going to show you His goodness in ways you've never seen before. Keep standing, keep praying, keep putting Him first and watch His unprecedented favor come on every area of your life!

*PRAYER FOR TODAY:*

*Father, I come before You with a heart full of awe and gratitude. You are Almighty God, the Creator of the universe, and the One who holds all times and seasons in Your hands. Thank You for Your great love, Your mercy, and the unmerited grace that surrounds me each day. Thank You for this day and age I’m living in. I believe that You created me for such a time as this. Lead me to the right place at the right time, and let Your goodness speak on my behalf. By faith, I receive Your unprecedented favor as I serve You with my whole heart. In Jesus’ precious name. Amen.*

*Good morning partners, friends and well-wishers. Happy Thursday!*

*Rest and Refresh*

*TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:*

_Jesus stood and cried out, saying, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink.”......_
*John 7:37*

*TODAY'S WORD:*

They were nuns, monks, hermits, and ascetics, and were known as the Desert Fathers (or Desert Mothers, for nuns). Beginning with Anthony the Great who moved to the Middle Eastern desert around A.D. 270, thousands of others followed in his footsteps seeking spiritual purity, enlightenment, solitude, and perfection.
Their pattern of “retreating” contributed to today’s practice of taking a “retreat” to refresh oneself spiritually. Thankfully, it’s not necessary to retreat to the desert or a mountaintop, either temporarily or permanently, to find spiritual refreshment. Jesus said if we would but come to Him—for living water or for rest (Matthew 11:28-30)—we would find it in abundance. We can create that place of rest in a place of prayer or Bible study or meditation or worship—anywhere we can retreat from the cares and busyness of life. When we turn over those cares to God in prayer through Christ, His peace will guard our heart and mind (Philippians 4:6-7).

If you can retreat to a serene spot in nature—wonderful! If that’s not possible, retreat with Jesus wherever you can. He will meet you there.

*You made us for yourself, O Lord, and our hearts are restless till they rest in you.*

*PRAYER FOR TODAY:*

*Father, thank You for the good plan You have for my life. Even when I don’t understand things, I choose to put my hope and trust in You. Father, for those of us that are stressed, tired, spent, and exhausted, from what's going on in this world today, give us mercy and grace to continue on. Help us to rest in Your perfect peace. Teach us the beauty of resting in You, for Your forbearance is remarkable, and Your patience is inexhaustible. Also, resting securely in You forms a peace that goes beyond understanding and provides true refreshment. I give You all the praise that belongs to You. In Jesus’ precious name. Amen.*
