It’s Worth Fighting For
by Ministry Support on November 1st, 2025
"When Abram heard that his kinsman had been taken captive, he led forth his trained men, born in his house, 318 of them, and went in pursuit as far as Dan." - Genesis 14:14 Sometimes life hits you with a loss you didn’t see coming. A relationship you poured yourself into ends. A dream you’ve been working toward feels like it’s slipping away. The peace you once had is now buried under anxiety. When... Read More

Go Get Your Stuff Back
by Ministry Support on October 31st, 2025
"And he divided his forces against them by night, he and his servants, and defeated them and pursued them to Hobah, north of Damascus." – Genesis 14:15 If you want your stuff back, you’re going to need more than emotion. You’re going to need a strategy. Abram did not rush into battle blindly. He didn’t act out of panic or pride. He developed a plan. The text says he attacked at night, catching the... Read More

You’re Not Meant to Fight Alone
by Ministry Support on October 30th, 2025
"When Abram heard that his kinsman had been taken captive, he led forth his trained men, born in his house, 318 of them, and went in pursuit as far as Dan." – Genesis 14:14 When Abram lost Lot, he didn’t try to rescue him alone. He had 318 trained men already within his household, ready to move when the time came. That one detail in the story holds more weight than most people realize. It means th... Read More

Get It Back
by Ministry Support on October 29th, 2025
"When Abram heard that his kinsman had been taken captive, he led forth his trained men, born in his house, 318 of them, and went in pursuit as far as Dan." – Genesis 14:14 Abram had every reason to grow bitter in the book of Genesis. He had invested so much into Lot. Raised him like a son. Given him land. Helped him build a future. And Lot still made choices that got him caught up in a situation ... Read More

Worth the Fight
by Ministry Support on October 28th, 2025
"When Abram heard that his kinsman had been taken captive, he led forth his trained men, born in his house, 318 of them, and went in pursuit as far as Dan." – Genesis 14:14 Before Abram picked up a sword, before he strategized a rescue, before he risked everything to chase after what was taken, he had to make one simple but powerful decision. He had to decide that Lot was worth fighting for. Lot w... Read More

Reclaim What Was Taken
by Ministry Support on October 27th, 2025
"When Abram heard that his kinsman had been taken captive, he led forth his trained men, born in his house, 318 of them, and went in pursuit as far as Dan." – Genesis 14:14 There are seasons in life when something gets taken from you. Not physically kidnapped like in a movie, but emotionally, mentally, spiritually. Peace, joy, security, clarity, maybe even someone you loved or trusted. And when th... Read More

Step Outside the Walls
by Ministry Support on October 26th, 2025
"And he said to them, 'Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation.'" – Mark 16:15 Sometimes we assume that ministry only happens inside the walls of a church. That people have to come to us, at the time we’ve decided, on the terms we’ve set, in the building we’ve labeled sacred. But God has never been confined to buildings. He moves where people are, and He calls us to do ... Read More

Break the Bias
by Ministry Support on October 25th, 2025
"Truly I understand that God shows no partiality" - Acts 10:34 Bias is subtle, but it is powerful. It is easy to believe that your way is the right way, your background is the standard, and your preferences are God’s preferences. But that is not how the Kingdom works. God is far bigger than our categories, and if we want to move with Him, we have to be willing to confront the assumptions that shap... Read More

Will You Respond?
by Ministry Support on October 24th, 2025
"And if it is evil in your eyes to serve the Lord, choose this day whom you will serve" - Joshua 24:15 This is your moment. You can feel it. Something in your spirit knows that God is stirring, prompting, calling. The question is, will you respond? Or will you stay where it feels safe, predictable, and under control? It is easier to stay in what you know. It is easier to stay in the comfort of rou... Read More

Becoming Who God is Forming
by Ministry Support on October 23rd, 2025
"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come." - 2 Corinthians 5:17 Moving with God is not just about doing something different. It is about becoming someone different. This journey of obedience is not just meant to shift your surroundings. It is designed to transform your soul. Too often, we think change is external. We believe that i... Read More

When He Speaks, You Move
by Ministry Support on October 22nd, 2025
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths." - Proverbs 3:5-6 To move with God means you trust Him more than your surroundings. It means you are willing to follow His voice even when your environment tells you to stay still. You don’t let the noise around you drown out the nudge within yo... Read More

Move Before You Understand
by Ministry Support on October 21st, 2025
"Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path." - Psalm 119:105 We live in a world obsessed with clarity. We want the full picture, all the answers, and guaranteed outcomes before we make a move. But faith does not work that way. Faith moves first and understands later. God reveals more as you obey more. If you are waiting to understand everything before you move, you may be waiting for t... Read More

Step Into the Deep
by Ministry Support on October 20th, 2025
"For he was astonished, and all who were with him, at the catch of fish that they had taken" - Luke 5:9 There is a moment in Luke 5 when Jesus tells Peter to launch out into the deep and let down his nets for a catch. Peter is hesitant. He explains that they’ve worked all night and caught nothing. From a fisherman’s perspective, the timing is off, the location is questionable, and the command does... Read More

Comfort is Not the Goal
by Ministry Support on October 19th, 2025
"And he said to them all, 'If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.'" – Luke 9:23 There’s nothing wrong with comfort. It feels good to settle into what’s familiar, predictable, and manageable. But if you follow Jesus long enough, you’ll find He rarely leads you where comfort is king. That’s because comfort is not His goal. Transformation is. We... Read More

God’s Plan Doesn’t Wait for Your Preferences
by Ministry Support on October 18th, 2025
"And he said to all, 'If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.'" – Luke 9:23 God is always moving. His plans are unfolding. His purpose is advancing. And the truth is, He’s not stopping to ask what you’re most comfortable with. When God moves, He doesn’t pause to consider whether the direction feels ideal to you. He doesn't call a meeting to re... Read More

The Middle is Where it Matters Most
by Ministry Support on October 17th, 2025
“Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you preserve my life” – Psalm 138:7 It’s easy to trust God when something begins. New beginnings feel exciting and full of promise. It’s also not too hard to trust Him at the end, when everything has worked out and you can see how it all came together. But what about the middle? The middle is where your faith gets tested. It’s where things take longer than y... Read More

Where Are You Willing to Walk?
by Ministry Support on October 16th, 2025
“By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to a place that he was to receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going.” – Hebrews 11:8 Following God will take you into places that look unfamiliar. It might be a new job, a new city, a new calling, a new level of responsibility, or even a new version of yourself. Whatever it is, unfamiliar ground requires uncomfo... Read More

What Are You Still Holding on to?
by Ministry Support on October 15th, 2025
“Indeed, I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord.” – Philippians 3:8 Movement always costs something. When God calls you forward, He also calls you to let go. The more you want to follow Him, the more you’ll have to lay down. That is not always sin. Sometimes, the heaviest things to release are the ones that have brought you comfort, identity, and... Read More

Called Out of Comfort
by Ministry Support on October 14th, 2025
"Jesus said to him, ‘Follow me.’ And leaving everything, he rose and followed him." – Luke 5:27-28 Comfort is not always sinful, but it is always limiting. It keeps you warm and still. It lulls you into inaction. And if you are not careful, comfort will become your master, not your reward. God is not in the business of building soft lives. He is building strong people. That often starts with break... Read More

One Step at a Time
by Ministry Support on October 13th, 2025
"But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves." - James 1:22 Faith always walks. It never stays still. The people God used throughout Scripture all had to take a step. Noah had to pick up the hammer. Abraham had to leave home. Moses had to walk back into Egypt. Peter had to step out onto the water. None of them got the full plan. What they got was an instruction, a moment, ... Read More

A New Way to Think
by Ministry Support on October 12th, 2025
"Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind" - Romans 12:2 When God calls you forward, the first thing He often changes is not your location but your mindset. Before your feet move, your thoughts have to. The battles you face, the fears you carry, and the things that keep you stuck usually don’t come from the outside. They live in your thinking. If your minds... Read More

Will You Move with Him?
by Ministry Support on October 11th, 2025
"But as for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good" - Genesis 50:20 Every time God does something new, He calls someone to move. That move may not always be geographic, but it is always spiritual. It is a shift of mindset, a step of obedience, a break from comfort, and a stretch into faith. The question is not whether God is working. He always is. The question is, will you move ... Read More

Bigger Than the Building
by Ministry Support on October 10th, 2025
“But as for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good” – Genesis 50:20 We all get attached to the spaces we worship in. The sanctuary, the stained glass, the gathering of people who feel like family. But the longer you walk with God, the more you realize His presence isn’t locked inside a building. He moves beyond our traditions, our routines, and even our comfort zones. In the boo... Read More

New Methods, Same Mission
by Ministry Support on October 9th, 2025
“What God has made clean, do not call common” – Acts 10:15 The entire tenth chapter of Acts tells the story of two very different men. Peter, a Jewish follower of Jesus, and Cornelius, a Roman centurion. One man was raised under strict tradition and religious law. The other was seen by Peter’s people as an outsider and an enemy. But in this powerful moment, God stepped in and shattered every human... Read More

Don’t Overlook Your Blessings
by Ministry Support on October 8th, 2025
"In him we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to the purpose of him who works all things according to the counsel of his will" – Ephesians 1:11 There was a young man who used to spend time with a friend’s family often enough that he almost became like one of their own. They would take him to dinner, buy him things at the mall, and even gift him a leather jacket once. Y... Read More

The Blessing of Reward
by Ministry Support on October 7th, 2025
"In him we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to the purpose of him who works all things according to the counsel of his will" – Ephesians 1:11 God never asks you to live for Him without promising that something is waiting on the other side. As Paul continues his letter to the Ephesians, he points to one final spiritual blessing from God the Son that must not be overlo... Read More

The Blessing of Responsibility
by Ministry Support on October 6th, 2025
"Making known to us the mystery of his will, according to his purpose, which he set forth in Christ" - Ephesians 1:9 There’s something powerful that often gets overlooked when we talk about blessings. And that is that blessings always carry responsibility. God never blesses just to bless. He blesses so that you and I can steward what we’ve been given. That’s exactly what Paul is getting at when he... Read More

The Blessing of Revelation
by Ministry Support on October 5th, 2025
"Making known to us the mystery of his will, according to his purpose, which he set forth in Christ" - Ephesians 1:9 When you think of blessings from God, revelation might not be the first thing that comes to mind. But Paul wants you to understand that one of the greatest gifts you’ve been given in Christ is the ability to see. To see what? To see the will of God for your life. To see with clarity... Read More

Back in Right Standing
by Ministry Support on October 4th, 2025
“In him we have…the forgiveness of our trespasses” - Ephesians 1:7 One of the most beautiful truths about our relationship with Jesus is that we are not only redeemed, we are also reconciled. Redemption paid the debt. Reconciliation restored the relationship. Paul says that in Christ, we have the forgiveness of our trespasses. That means God not only saw the offense. He also made the first move to... Read More

Redeemed and Set Free
by Ministry Support on October 3rd, 2025
“In him we have redemption through his blood” - Ephesians 1:7 Before you ever tried to get your life together, before you ever made a decision to follow Jesus, before you even realized how lost you were, He had already made the move to redeem you. The first blessing we have from God the Son is redemption. That word isn’t just church language. It means something real. It means to be bought back, re... Read More

More Blessed Than You Think
by Ministry Support on October 2nd, 2025
“In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace” - Ephesians 1:7 You really are more blessed than you realize. Maybe you don’t feel it because your bank account is low or your dreams are still sitting on the shelf. Maybe you’ve convinced yourself that being blessed means being visibly successful, but God sees blessing differentl... Read More

Count the Right Blessings
by Ministry Support on October 1st, 2025
“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places.” - Ephesians 1:3 There’s an old hymn that says, “Count your many blessings, name them one by one, and it will surprise you what the Lord has done.” It’s a song we’ve heard before, but one that hits different when you’re under pressure. When life gets heavy and... Read More

Equipped in Motion
by Ministry Support on September 30th, 2025
“The Lord will fight for you, you need only to be still.” – Exodus 14:14 We often assume that before God calls us into something, He will hand us everything we need upfront. We picture Him stacking our toolbox with every skill, resource, and connection we could possibly require before we take the first step. But in Scripture, that is rarely how God works. More often, He equips us in motion. Think ... Read More

Equipped for the Call
by Ministry Support on September 29th, 2025
“The one who calls you is faithful, and he will do it.” – 1 Thessalonians 5:24 When God calls you to something, He never leaves you to figure it out on your own. He does not hand you an assignment and then step back to see if you can handle it by your own strength. If He calls you to it, He will equip you for it. That’s a promise we can hold on to, even when the journey feels overwhelming. Equippi... Read More

Never Canceled
by Ministry Support on September 28th, 2025
“For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable.” – Romans 11:29 If God has placed a calling on your life, no one else gets the final say about whether or not you can walk in it. People may try to slow you down. They may question your qualifications, criticize your approach, or even bring up your past to discredit you. But the truth is, they don’t have the authority to cancel what God has al... Read More

“But when God, who set me apart from my mother’s womb and called me by his grace, was pleased to reveal his Son in me so that I might preach him among the Gentiles, my immediate response was not to consult any human being.” – Galatians 1:15-16 Paul never tried to hide his past or pretend he had always been a follower of Jesus. He admitted openly that he once persecuted the church and tried to dest... Read More

“It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.” – Galatians 5:1 Some people spend their whole lives trying to fit into boxes that were never meant for them. Boxes made of cultural expectations, family traditions, or even church rules that God never required. These boxes can be subtle or obvious, but they all have ... Read More

Stop Trying to Fit Their Box
by Ministry Support on September 25th, 2025
“Am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ.” – Galatians 1:10 The apostle Paul knew what it was like to be put in a box. People had a long list of reasons why they thought he was unqualified to be an apostle. He was not one of the original twelve. He never walked side-by-side with Jesus li... Read More

Get Out of the Box

“Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind…” – Romans 12:2 You may not be able to fold yourself into a tiny glass box like a contortionist, but many people spend their lives doing something similar. They twist and bend themselves into shapes that were never meant for them, trying to fit into boxes that God never designed them for. For some, it is the career ... Read More

In the Middle of the Mess
by Ministry Support on September 23rd, 2025
“And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.” – Romans 8:28 The Bible is full of examples. Abraham was old, Joseph was abused, Moses stuttered, Rahab had a sinful past, David failed morally, Elijah battled despair, and Paul struggled with poor health. None of them had flawless circumstances, but all of them were used... Read More
