Keep Showing Up Even When You Are Confused
by Ministry Support on January 21st, 2026
“Then he said to Thomas, Put your finger here, and see my hands.” - John 20:27 Confusion has a way of making people disappear. When answers are missing, and clarity feels out of reach, the instinct is to pull back. You stop talking as much. You skip the room where faith conversations happen. Distance feels safer than staying present when you are not sure what you believe anymore. Most people assum... Read More

When You Feel the Urge to Go Through God’s Phone
by Ministry Support on January 19th, 2026
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding.” - Proverbs 3:5 Anxiety has a funny way of changing how you relate to God. Trust starts slipping, and suddenly, you want answers right now. You look for signs everywhere. You replay conversations, scan circumstances, and read into silence. Faith feels uncomfortable when you cannot verify what God is doing, so the in... Read More

Formed in the Field, Not on the Stage
by Ministry Support on January 17th, 2026
“The Lord who delivered me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear will deliver me.” - 1 Samuel 17:37 Visibility gets most of the attention. People notice the platform, the moment, the result. What they rarely see is the long stretch of quiet that came first. The field is where life feels ordinary and repetitive. Days pass without applause. Progress feels slow. Still, Scripture shows... 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

Winning With a Bad Hand
by Ministry Support on January 12th, 2026
“In this world you will have trouble. But take heart. I have overcome the world.” - John 16:33 Most people know what it feels like to get dealt a hand they never would have chosen. You start life without the advantages others seem to have. A family situation limits you. An early setback reshapes your confidence. Circumstances pile up before you ever feel ready. When that happens, it is tempting to... 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

Waiting on God is Not Doing Nothing
by Ministry Support on January 9th, 2026
“But they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength.” - Isaiah 40:31 Waiting has a bad reputation. It feels like being stuck. Progress slows. Answers take longer than expected. Days start blending together, and the silence can make you wonder if anything is happening at all. Most people assume waiting means inactivity, like life has been put on pause until God finally moves. Scripture paint... Read More

When Hope Feels Gone
by Ministry Support on January 6th, 2026
“Fear not, for I am with you. Be not dismayed, for I am your God.” - Isaiah 41:10 Hope usually doesn’t disappear in a dramatic way. It wears down. One disappointment lasts longer than expected. Waiting stretches past what felt reasonable. Answers never come when you thought they would. Somewhere along the way, the confidence you used to have starts thinning out, and you can’t point to the exact mo... Read More

When Your World Falls Apart After You Did Everything Right
by Ministry Support on January 3rd, 2026
“Why do you say, O Jacob, and speak, O Israel, My way is hidden from the Lord.” - Isaiah 40:27 Sometimes everything falls apart at the exact moment you thought you were doing things right. You prayed when it would have been easier not to. You stayed steady when shortcuts were available. Obedience felt costly, but you chose it anyway. Then the bottom dropped out. Nothing lined up. Loss showed up wh... Read More

How to Rebound After a Crushing Letdown
by Ministry Support on January 2nd, 2026
“The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.” - Psalm 34:18 Disappointment hits differently when it feels final. A plan collapses. A promise falls apart. A season you believed in ends without warning. When that happens, the weight is not just emotional; it is disorienting. You start asking questions you never planned to ask. Confidence takes a hit. Hope feels fragile. In... Read More

When God Feels Silent but is Still at Work
by Ministry Support on January 1st, 2026
“Why do you say, O Jacob, and speak, O Israel, My way is hidden from the Lord, and my right is disregarded by my God?” - Isaiah 40:27 There are seasons when God feels distant, not because you stopped believing, but because nothing seems to be happening. Prayers go unanswered. Progress feels stalled. Days pass without clarity. In those moments, a quiet thought starts forming in the heart. Maybe God... Read More

You Can Make It Even with What You Come From
by Ministry Support on December 31st, 2025
“From his fullness we have all received grace upon grace.” - John 1:16 New Year’s Eve carries a strange blend of reflection and hope. People look back at where they came from and wonder what the next year might hold. For some, that reflection brings pride. For others, it brings a quiet ache. Not everyone comes from a steady home. Not everyone grew up with support, peace, or a clear example to foll... Read More

Finding God in Your Trouble, Not After It
by Ministry Support on December 30th, 2025
“God is our refuge and strength, an ever present help in trouble.” - Psalm 46:1 Trouble has a way of making you feel alone. The moment pressure rises, your mind starts imagining that God must be standing somewhere outside the situation, waiting for you to push through so He can step in later. It is easy to think He helps after the storm clears, after the problem settles, after you pull yourself to... Read More

When Life Does Not Look Like the Picture You Imagined
by Ministry Support on December 29th, 2025
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.” - Proverbs 3:5 Most people carry an unspoken picture in their mind of how life was supposed to look. Certain dreams feel so clear that you assume they will unfold exactly the way you imagined. Then real life shows up with twists you never planned for. A path you expected to be smooth becomes uneven. A timeline you thou... Read More

Letting God Tear Down the Fences
by Ministry Support on December 25th, 2025
“He himself is our peace.” - Ephesians 2:14 Christmas morning carries a different kind of excitement. The world slows down, and even for a few minutes, the heart feels a hint of peace it has been craving all year. Moments like this make it easier to notice the things inside you that have been closed off. Fences go up slowly. A disappointment pushes one board into place. A painful conversation adds... Read More

Emotional Self Awareness
by Ministry Support on December 23rd, 2025
“Teach me your way, Lord, that I may rely on your faithfulness.” - Psalm 86:11 Spiritual growth is often described in terms of prayer, Scripture, and obedience, but there is another layer that many people overlook. God also calls His children to know what is happening inside their own hearts. Emotional awareness is not a modern idea. It is part of maturity. You cannot surrender to God what you ref... Read More

When Trauma Follows You into New Seasons
by Ministry Support on December 21st, 2025
“He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.” - Psalm 147:3 New seasons feel exciting on the surface. You step into a fresh opportunity, a new relationship, a different environment, or a clearer direction. Everything around you says this should be a new beginning. Yet something from your past keeps showing up in the present. Old emotions creep into new conversations. Familiar fears rise ... Read More

The Hidden Bruises Shaping Your Reactions
by Ministry Support on December 20th, 2025
“Search me, God, and know my heart. Test me and know my anxious thoughts.” - Psalm 139:23 Some conflicts seem bigger than the moment that triggered them. A small comment turns into a sharp response. A simple misunderstanding becomes a heavy argument. Initially, it feels like the issue is right in front of you, but something deeper may be stirring beneath the surface. Old pain has a way of showing ... Read More

Stop Building Fences Around Your Heart
by Ministry Support on December 19th, 2025
“Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.” - Proverbs 4:23 People build emotional fences for all kinds of reasons. Something hurt them. Someone disappointed them. A moment caught them off guard, and the safest response seemed to be closing the gate and keeping everyone at a distance. At first, the fence feels like protection. It gives you a sense of control. It helps ... Read More

Your Destiny Is Bigger Than Your Difficulty
by Ministry Support on December 18th, 2025
“Forget the former things. Do not dwell on the past.” - Isaiah 43:18 Some seasons leave you staring at what happened instead of where you are going. A memory lingers. A disappointment hangs around longer than you expected. A setback keeps replaying in your mind. When that becomes your focus, the future starts to feel smaller than it really is. God speaks into moments like that and reminds you that... Read More

Seeing God’s Hand in What Tried to Break You
by Ministry Support on December 17th, 2025
“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him.” - Romans 8:28 Some chapters of life leave a mark so deep that you wonder if anything good could ever come out of them. Pain changes your breathing. Disappointment alters your confidence. Wounds shape the way you see the world. It is natural to look back and only remember what hurt. Yet Scripture invites you to take anot... Read More

How to Stop Resentment from Taking Up Residence in Your Heart
by Ministry Support on December 14th, 2025
“Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you.” - Ephesians 4:31Resentment does not arrive all at once. It drifts in slowly, almost like a cloud that begins as a thin layer in the distance. Initially, it seems harmless. A moment hurt you. A comment stung. An expectation was not met. You brushed it off and kept moving. But over time, that small cloud begins to ... Read More

Remembering What God Already Brought You Through
by Ministry Support on December 13th, 2025
“Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits.” - Psalm 103:2 Life moves fast, and when pressures rise, it is easy to focus only on what is hard right now. You see the problem in front of you. You feel the weight of the moment. You wonder how things will work out. But Scripture invites you to pause and look back. Not to relive old pain, but to remember the faithfulness of God in your... Read More

The Cost of Harboring Feelings
by Ministry Support on December 11th, 2025
“Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.” - 1 Peter 5:7 Every person carries feelings that are hard to talk about. Hurt that lingers. Disappointment that hangs in the background. Frustration that you try to ignore. At first, it feels easier to hold those emotions inside. You tell yourself that staying quiet keeps the peace. You tell yourself that time will take care of it. You tell ... Read More

Seeing From God’s View Instead of the World’s View
by Ministry Support on December 7th, 2025
“Those who look to him are radiant. Their faces shall never be ashamed.” - Psalm 34:5 There are times in life when all you can see is what is right in front of you. You see the problem. You see the pressure. You see the part of the story that hurts. When that happens, it is easy to draw conclusions based on what your eyes can measure. But God never intended for you to live only by what you see. He... Read More

Choosing Joy When You Do Not Feel Joy
by Ministry Support on December 3rd, 2025
“Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice.” - Philippians 4:4 There are seasons when joy feels natural. Life settles into place, prayers get answered, and your heart lifts without much effort. But there are also seasons when joy feels completely out of reach. You wake up tired, you carry more weight than you want to admit, and nothing in your situation feels joyful at all. It is in th... Read More

Getting Your “But” Out of the Way
by Ministry Support on December 2nd, 2025
“For nothing will be impossible with God.” - Luke 1:37 When you look through Scripture, you find a pattern that shows up in almost every story. God speaks, invites, and calls. And people respond with faith that sounds confident at first, but then comes the word that stops everything. The word but. It is one small word that has kept many people from seeing what God was trying to show them. It is of... Read More

Grace Is Still the Invitation
by Ministry Support on November 27th, 2025
"For from his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace." - John 1:16 There are moments in life when the distance feels too wide. Maybe it has been weeks, months, or even years since you’ve truly felt close to God. Whether it was failure, shame, apathy, or just a slow drift, something happened. And now you wonder if the door is still open. Let me tell you, it is. Grace is still the invitatio... Read More

Healing Happens in His Hands
by Ministry Support on November 26th, 2025
"He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." - Psalm 147:3 When life feels shattered, the natural instinct is to run. Run from the pain, run from the past, run from the things you can’t fix. But the truth is that healing is not found in your escape route. It’s found in the hands of the One who knows how to restore what has been broken. You might be tempted to numb the pain, distract you... Read More

Pray Like You’re in a Battle
by Ministry Support on November 20th, 2025
"Pray without ceasing." – 1 Thessalonians 5:17 When you are in a spiritual battle, prayer cannot be a side note. It is not a nice option or a religious habit you squeeze into your morning. It is your lifeline. Your weapon. Your strategy. The battle you are facing is not just physical, emotional, or mental. It is spiritual. And if you are going to win a spiritual war, you have to fight with spiritu... Read More

Spiritual Boldness in the Battle
by Ministry Support on November 19th, 2025
"Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go." – Joshua 1:9 When the enemy attacks, he doesn’t play fair. He strikes in your moments of weakness. He throws lies when you’re already low. He uses fear to make you freeze. And if you’re not careful, you’ll spend your days on the defensive, just trying to survive. But God did not call you to... Read More

God Will Back You Up

"If God is for us, who can be against us?" – Romans 8:31 There’s a kind of courage that only shows up when you take the first step. Not the kind of courage that feels invincible, but the kind that moves forward even while you're shaking. Maybe you’re standing in front of something that feels too big for you. You know it needs to be done. You know God is nudging you to move. But fear keeps whisperi... Read More

Not a physical one, but a real battle for your peace, your purpose, your growth, or your future.

The Promise Is Greater

"What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?" – Romans 8:31 When Abram found out that his nephew Lot had been taken by enemy kings, he could have assumed the story was over. The opposition was too strong. The loss too great. The situation too far gone. But instead of shrinking back, Abram stepped forward. He went to battle with confidence because he believed so...

Is It Worth the Fight?

"But when Abram heard that his kinsman had been taken captive, he led forth his trained men… and went in pursuit." – Genesis 14:14 Every now and then, you come to a moment that demands a decision.

That’s what Abram faced when he found out his nephew Lot... Read More

He had to decide that Lot was worth fighting for. Lot w... Read More

Step Outside the Walls

"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
