The Wall Rose Because the People Did Not Quit
by Ministry Support on January 31st, 2026
“So the wall was finished in fifty-two days.” - Nehemiah 6:15 Restoration rarely happens in ideal conditions. Most rebuilding starts while pressure is still present. Fear hasn’t left. Fatigue hasn’t lifted. Problems haven’t magically resolved. Many people assume progress depends on circumstances improving first. Scripture shows something different. Sometimes restoration comes simply because people... Read More

Taking Off Armor That Does Not Fit
by Ministry Support on January 16th, 2026
“David said to Saul, I cannot go with these, for I have not tested them.” - 1 Samuel 17:39 Most people learn early how to wear what is expected of them. Titles get handed out. Roles settle in. Labels stick. Over time, you start carrying assumptions that never really belonged to you, but you wear them anyway because they seem safer than standing exposed. Expectations can feel like protection, espec... Read More

You Were Trained for This Moment
by Ministry Support on January 15th, 2026
“He trains my hands for battle.” - Psalm 144:1 It usually does not feel like training when you are in it. Struggle feels pointless while it is happening. Pressure feels random. Loss feels unfair. Most people look back at hard seasons and label them as wasted time, chapters they would erase if they could. In the middle of those moments, very few think, this is preparing me for something ahead. Thin... Read More

Prepared in the Field Before the Giant Appears
by Ministry Support on January 14th, 2026
“The Lord who delivered me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine.” - 1 Samuel 17:37 Nobody sees the field seasons. They are quiet, repetitive, and easy to overlook. Days blend together when you are doing the same small tasks without an audience. Progress feels slow. Recognition feels nonexistent. Many people assume those seasons are ... Read More

Getting In Your Bag When Life Feels Unfair
by Ministry Support on January 11th, 2026
“David put his hand in his bag, took out a stone, and struck the Philistine.” - 1 Samuel 17:49 In the NBA, people argue all the time about who has the best bag. They’re not talking about a backpack or a designer pouch. They mean skill. Handles you can trust. Footwork that holds up under pressure. Counters that work when the defense knows what’s coming. When the game tightens, great players don’t a... Read More

Before Circumstances Change
by Ministry Support on January 10th, 2026
“He gives power to the faint, and to him who has no might he increases strength.” - Isaiah 40:29 There are seasons when you keep waiting for something outside of you to shift. You expect relief to come first. Pressure to ease. Circumstances to finally cooperate. When none of that happens, discouragement settles in fast. It feels backward to hear that God renews strength when the situation stays he... Read More

Steady Under Pressure
by Ministry Support on September 5th, 2025
"Be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain." – 1 Corinthians 15:58 Life has a way of revealing what we are made of when the pressure turns up. Anyone can be pleasant when things are going their way, but the real test of character is how you respond when the bottom drops out. Do you stay steady, or do you let the storm cont... Read More

Do I Have To Have It All Together?
by Ministry Support on January 25th, 2022
“Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.” - 1 Peter 5:7 In July 2021, gymnast Symone Biles announced that she was withdrawing from the Olympic finals. She reached full capacity and couldn’t handle the amount of pressure she was feeling. That high-stress and anxiety led her to conclude that for her own well-being, the well-being of the team, and the Olympic ambitions of the country,... Read More
