on January 22nd, 2025
"He has made everything beautiful in its time." - Ecclesiastes 3:11 Waiting is never easy, especially when we are waiting on God to deliver on His promises. As we wait, we must remain expectant, grounded in prayer, and anchored in faith. But above all, we must trust in God’s timing. His timing is perfect, even when it doesn’t align with our own expectations or desires. The truth is that what we ul...  Read More

"Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful." - Hebrews 10:23 As we wait for God to fulfill His promises, one of the most crucial things we can do is remain grounded in faith. It’s easy to lose heart as time passes, and the waiting becomes long. We may begin to wonder if God will actually do what He has said. But this is where our faith must be ro...  Read More

God’s Priority
on January 20th, 2025
"For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son." - Romans 8:29 When God gives us promises, especially those that are conditional, it’s important to remember that His ultimate priority isn’t just to fulfill those promises for us. While we often focus on the blessings we believe are coming our way, God is more concerned with something far deeper: our transfor...  Read More

God's Conditional Promises
on January 19th, 2025
"And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, if you obey the voice of the Lord your God." - Deuteronomy 28:2 Not every promise God gives us is unconditional. While many of His promises are completely up to Him, where He assures us of His love, His presence, and His grace, there are other promises in Scripture that come with conditions. These are the "if ____, then _______" promis...  Read More

"Let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up." - Galatians 6:9 When God gives us a promise, it's easy to be excited, motivated, and fully focused on the future He has planned for us.

Patience Through Prayer
on January 17th, 2025
"But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait for it with patience." - Romans 8:25 Waiting is never easy. Whether you're waiting for a job, a relationship, a breakthrough, or any promise God has given you, that waiting period often feels like the hardest part. God has a purpose in the waiting, but in those moments, our patience can wear thin. Without prayer, our patience often fades, and we’re l...  Read More

Strength in Prayer
on January 16th, 2025
"But he said to me, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.'" - 2 Corinthians 12:9 It’s easy to think that we have to face life’s challenges on our own. We often believe that the strength to overcome temptation, trials, and struggles comes from within us. But the truth is, without prayer, your strength will fail. You cannot stand against the enemy or navigate lif...  Read More

Grounded in Prayer
on January 15th, 2025
"Pray without ceasing." - 1 Thessalonians 5:17 Waiting is hard. It can feel like you're standing still while the world moves around you, and it’s easy to believe that you can hold on through sheer willpower. But the truth is, waiting isn't something you can do on your own. You need prayer. You need to remain grounded in prayer as you wait for God’s promises to unfold. Without prayer, your strength...  Read More

Waiting with Expectancy
on January 14th, 2025
“For all the promises of God find their Yes in him.” - 2 Corinthians 1:20 Waiting can be difficult. In a world that thrives on instant gratification, waiting often feels like a burden. But for those who trust in God’s promises, waiting isn’t passive. It’s an active process that involves both hope and expectancy. As you align yourself to receive God’s promise, you should wait with expectancy, knowi...  Read More

“There was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon…” - Luke 2:25 In life, sometimes it’s not just about having a promise, it’s about being in the right position to receive it. Think about some of the greatest catches in NFL history—like Plaxico Burress's touchdown in the Super Bowl or Franco Harris's “Immaculate Reception.” What made these moments so incredible wasn’t just the athletic ability o...  Read More

Get in the Right Position
on January 11th, 2025
“There was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon…” - Luke 2:25 Simeon’s journey to meeting the Messiah didn’t just start with a promise from God.

In Possession of a Personal Promise
on January 10th, 2025
“It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not see death before he had seen the Lord’s Christ.” - Luke 2:26 Simeon’s story in Scripture is powerful not only because of what he experienced but because of what he held onto.

A Long-Awaited Reunion
on January 8th, 2025
"For my eyes have seen your salvation that you have prepared in the presence of all peoples." - Luke 2:30 Some of the most moving videos are those of soldiers coming home, surprised by a reunion with their families.

Let God Handle the Guest List
on January 7th, 2025
"And I have other sheep that are not of this fold. I must bring them also, and they will listen to my voice. So there will be one flock, one shepherd." - John 10:16 Have you ever been to a party or event where you were asked to help decide who could come? You know, the guest list?

Stop Talking So Loud
on January 6th, 2025
"Whoever has ears, let them hear.” - Matthew 11:15 Jesus understood the struggle of those who needed to hear His voice but couldn’t because His followers were talking too loud. The “other sheep” (that we referenced a few days ago) who need to hear His voice are struggling because we, as Christians, often dominate the conversation and drown out the voices of those who are searching for truth. Somet...  Read More

We Do Not Have a Monopoly on God
on January 5th, 2025
"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life." - John 3:16 Too many times, Christians can fall into the trap of thinking that they have exclusive rights to God’s love, truth, and blessings. It’s easy to think that God belongs only to those who look like us, believe like us, or live like us. We may even start to believe...  Read More
