Discerning Truth

“Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.”  Romans 12:2

All you see isn’t real and all you hear isn’t true, which is why all must be checked against the word of God. The Bible gives you the plain reality of the world and it is the standard of everlasting truth. God gave us a brain to discern error and to judge motives, so don’t listen to worldly minded people who have no sense of righteousness.

Keep your mind fixed on the Lord and upon His kingdom so the temptations of this world will lose its appeal to your soul. By beholding what’s good and true the mind will be transformed to follow suit.

Let’s pray today that the Spirit of God may guide us in discerning truth from error.

Living God’s Word

“Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ.”  Romans 10:17

The message of the saving gospel convicts our sinful hearts to exercise faith in living out God’s word. The testimony of the Bible stands as evidence that Calvary is our only hope of a new life, a new way, and reason to repent and follow Jesus. Like a bride and a groom, we say I do to Jesus and we live that out, through faith, each new day.

Our faith is not built on motivation or on an ability to work up to some level of emotionalism. Instead, our faith is based on the clear written promises of God’s Word, it is dependent on what God says not what we feel.

Let’s pray today that every decision in our life will be one that lives out the teachings of the Bible.

Deserving of Hell

“Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” Romans 10:13

Man can not be saved by his own character, nor by his devotion to a religion, but only by Jesus Christ. Without confessing Jesus as Lord and Savior we are doomed and deserving of hell. No other name under heaven is capable, qualified, or purposed for redemption from humanity’s eternal separation in hell, but Jesus the Son of God.

We pray in Jesus’ name because we claim His character, not our character, as the righteousness that makes our forgiveness from sins and our eternal salvation even possible. It is only because of Jesus that we escape hell.

Let’s pray today that we may claim the blood of Christ for our sins.

Faith that Saves

“If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.”  Romans 10:9

Saving faith goes in your life from hearing the gospel and out to others by confessing the gospel. You can not live as a follower of Jesus Christ by containing any type of private belief no more than one can get legally married and expect to keep it private. It is in confessing Christ as our personal Lord and Savior that we personally partake in a faith that saves.

There can be no denial through conversations or behavior if the Savior is Lord of your life. You can not hide the light from being seen and not be surprised when the lack of oxygen sniffs that hidden light out.

Let’s pray today for opportunities to confess our faith in Jesus before others.

No Separation

“For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”  Romans 8:38-39

Nothing, not even Satan himself, can separate the Christian from the hand of the Lord Jesus Christ. The weight of wicked one may seem overwhelming to bear. The devil may try his evil best by tempting you, he may assault, accuse, harm, and even kill you, but that will not separate you from the gift of eternal life offered by faith through the grace of Calvary’s cross.

Having moved all Heaven to send the Lamb of God as the sacrifice for man’s sin, just know that our God will not abandon the world now. The Lord Jesus Christ is returning soon and where He is so will we be, forever.

Let’s pray today in assurance of God’s irrevocable and unconditional love.

It’s God’s Plan

“He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things?”  Romans 8:32

Do not error in thinking that God the Father is uninterested in your salvation, because it is His plan. God the Father is the initiator of Jesus’ work of salvation and it’s His will that we are saved. He is not about to forsake you now, He has not lost interest, He has not changed His mind, and He certainly is not going to allow those who trust in His Son to be left behind.

Do not think that the plan of redemption ended with Calvary. The atonement is powerful enough to save. Holy angels are among us, the Holy Spirit is with us, all Heaven is involved in working out our salvation to the Lord’s return.

Let’s pray today that we believe in Jesus even as we are tested by tough times.

Walk with Jesus

“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.”  Romans 8:28

As a believer in Jesus Christ you will have life stories that will turn out better than you thought possible. When you purpose in your heart to love God and seek to bring glory to Him, there is no circumstance of life that His grace will be unable to work with. The valleys of sorrow can lead to the heights of joy when you walk through it with your Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Like waking to our old age and realizing that time is gone with all its troubles, we will have a day to praise the Lord for working His glory through circumstances with glorious unexpected outcomes.

Let’s pray today to allow our Lord to mold us and our circumstances to His glory.

Prayer Beyond Words

“In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans.” Romans 8:26

The Spirit of God bridges our prayers with Heaven making our faith known beyond our actual words. Words are limited by our education or experiences but God doesn’t hold those limits against us when we approach Him in prayer. His Spirit communicates our very heart’s desire with clarity when sorrow, grief, or pain prevents utterances.

The Spirit of God knows our sincerity, even if we are unable to voice that into words, and He translates our conviction and beliefs into the incense of prayer that moves the arm of the Omnipotent.

Let’s pray today with the depth of our soul in pleading Christ’s grace for our needs.

Spirit of Adoption

“The Spirit you received does not make you slaves, so that you live in fear again; rather, the Spirit you received brought about your adoption to sonship. And by him we cry, “Abba, Father.” Romans 8:15

The spirit of man enslaves with fear but the Spirit of God empowers with an adoption commitment. An adoptee no longer fears being rejected or orphaned once adopted. Likewise, you do not need to fear being abandoned by God because in Jesus you have been adopted by God. Do not fear losing your salvation, because Jesus is your salvation.

In Christ we have a forever family that extends beyond this age and through all eternity. There is no reason to fear rejection or any kind of conditional acceptance when we are part of the family of God.

Let’s pray today in thanksgiving and faith that our God has adopted us and will not orphan us.

No Condemnation

“Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus” Romans 8:1

The believer in Christ’s grace is legally freed from the penalty of their sins – past, present, and future. There is absolute freedom in Jesus Christ, but His grace doesn’t motivate us toward greater sin, instead it inspires us toward a greater obedience to Calvary. Grace compels us ever closer in a daily walk with Him, not further from Him.

There is no condemnation for you as you seek to follow your Lord because He was tempted as man and is familiar with the battle you fight. Jesus Christ is full of compassion and endless grace for those who seek, follow, and obey Him.

Let’s pray today in praise and gratitude for forgiveness and mercy that is ours in Jesus.

Under Grace

“For sin shall no longer be your master, because you are not under the law, but under grace.” Roman 6:14

Living under the law as a means of salvation is a sure way to condemnation, but life under grace is freedom from sin. If we live our lives consumed with avoiding the breaking of the law, we are beholding our own imperfection. If we live our lives beholding the grace of Christ, we are consumed with His perfection.

We love Him most when we know His grace most. When we realize that the Creator of all has freely given Himself as the sacrifice for our sinful choices, we can’t help but to want to follow Him in obedience.

Let’s pray today that we may find freedom from sin through the covering grace of Christ.

Awaken to Eternity

“Do not be amazed at this, for a time is coming when all who are in their graves will hear his voice and come out—those who have done what is good will rise to live, and those who have done what is evil will rise to be condemned.” John 5:28-29

Jesus referred to death as a sleep because the resurrection awakens us to our eternal destiny. For the believer who dies in Jesus, they will awake in the resurrection at His return of eternal life in Heaven. For those who have willfully rejected Jesus as the Savior, they will awaken in the resurrection of eternal judgment.

Death is not the end and grief is not forever, but we can take hope that our loved ones who worshiped the Lord Jesus will rise to an eternity in Heaven. We can look forward to embracing them again when we all awaken to eternity.

Let’s pray today we may face death with the hope that is in the resurrection, because Heaven awaits.

Redeemer of the Dead

“Very truly I tell you, a time is coming and has now come when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God and those who hear will live.” John 5:25

Jesus is the resurrection, the life, the Redeemer of the dead – before and after the funeral. He gives life to the one seeking a resurrection for a spiritual death, when we’ve walked away from God and His abundant life. He’ll give life to the one who dies before the Lord returns, but at the resurrection all who sleep in the dust of the ground shall come forth when Jesus calls.

There are a thousand voices clamoring for our attention but only our Lord’s has authority over death. There is hope in knowing that the voice of the Lord will one day call forth from the grave every follower and believer who will hear Him.

Let’s pray today that in our grief we will find comfort in Jesus’ promise to live again.

Humble for Heaven

“Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.” Matthew 5:5

Our society doesn’t always recognize meekness as a quality to be cherished, but our Father in Heaven does. No one wants to spend eternity with boisterous proud people, but rather with those who humbly recognize the high cost of salvation, which is why God rewards those who stand faithful to heavenly principles above earthly gains.

Heaven will be filled with those who lived quiet lives, like the faithful mother who lived mostly unknown outside her family and the steadfast father who labored without worldly ambition. Thankfully, the Lord sees the humble and the new earth is their reward.

Let’s pray today that we will not become hardened by others but stand for truth, humbly.

July 12, 2026

No More Grief

“Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.” Matthew 5:4

Grief is a very lonely feeling that leaves the mourner wondering if things will ever be normal again. Jesus knows your grief and with the story of the death Lazarus we saw that he knows the tears that grief brings. The day is coming when mortal shall put on immortal and sorrow will be replaced with eternal peace and the empty void of loss will end in the comforting arms of God in Heaven.

Comfort does not always come as we may expect because family and friends may stay at a distance, but the Lord is always near. Allow our times of mourning to drive us to find comfort from the Lord, in His promises, and in the blessed hope.

Let’s pray today for those who miss loved ones and that we will all long for Heaven.

July 11, 2026

Broken for Heaven

“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” Matthew 5:3

Being heartbroken, deeply saddened, in the depths of despair can sometimes seem like a prerequisite for Heaven. It’s hard to feel like we actually have a future when we feel broken, but Jesus says that the future belongs to such. This world may reward the ambitious confident go-getter, but the Kingdom of Heaven is about rewarding redemption to the broken-hearted.

It is hard to be prideful and feel self-sufficient when our heart’s are shattered with sorrow or our attitude is depressed of any positivity. However, it is in these times we can turn to the Lord and appreciate His sacrifice that we have the hope of Heaven.

Let’s pray today that when we feel our life is in pieces we will go to Jesus and find healing.

Merciful God

“Give ear, our God, and hear; open your eyes and see the desolation of the city that bears your Name. We do not make requests of you because we are righteous, but because of your great mercy.” Daniel 9:18

We do not pray to God because of our importance to Heaven, but because of God’s mercifulness to us. We are nothing without Him and when we pray it has nothing to do with what we can offer or what we have done in order to be heard. The God of the Bible offers His hearing ear because He is love, He is righteous, and He is merciful toward us.

Our prayer life should be marked with a constant gratefulness to our God for His grace, mercy, and compassion toward us as fallen sinful humanity. We do not pray to God because we are eloquent with our words, but because we are earnest for Him.

Let’s pray today knowing that our God is the God of mercy and that is why we pray to Him.

June 10, 2026

Kingdom of Saints

“Then the sovereignty, power and greatness of all the kingdoms under heaven will be handed over to the holy people of the Most High. His kingdom will be an everlasting kingdom, and all rulers will worship and obey him.” Daniel 7:27

Every knee shall bow and every soul confess that Jesus is Lord and only His saints shall rule then. Acknowledge His Lordship now and reign with Him then or wait until it’s too late. God sent His Son into the world to show you the way to eternal life and to influence you to willfully reserve our place in His Kingdom to come, so have you?

The saints of God will reign with the Lord in the everlasting Kingdom of Christ. No longer will there be those who oppose the followers of the true God, or who oppress them, because in those days all will worship before King Jesus.

Let’s pray today to accept the Lordship of Jesus Christ now and in everything we do.

June 9, 2026

King of Kings

“In the time of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed, nor will it be left to another people. It will crush all those kingdoms and bring them to an end, but it will itself endure forever.” Daniel 2:44

The time will come when earth’s leaders will cease their rule and yield to the Kingdom of Christ Jesus. The King of Kings will rightly take His eternal throne and He will justly rule with righteousness. His kingdom will come and His reign will stand forever. This ought to give us hope as we observe the blindness of immorality and the rampage of violence that is swiftly controlling our globe.

The Kingdom of our Lord will not be like kingdoms of this world, because no other will come after Him or try to succeed Him. The righteous Lord Jesus will never be replaced and His policies of governance will never be subverted.

Let’s pray today in the assurance that the kingdom’s of this earth will be subject to King Jesus.

June 8, 2026

A Heart for God

“I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh.” Ezekiel 36:26

Don’t be afraid of failure in your new Christian walk because God gives you a heart after Him. Don’t worry about past habits catching up to you and destroying any spiritual progress you are making. Your Lord has promised not only eternal life, but a new life, because the Holy Spirit is transforming your heart of stone with a heart that hears His call and stands resolute in biblical faith.

Jesus called the decision to follow Him, being born again, so don’t give your old man too much credit. The Spirit of God is more powerful than any bad habit or old vice that may have had a hold on you, but as a new creation your strength is in His constant leading.

Let’s pray today that by faith we will accept our new heart for God and His life for us.
