Over the years I have noticed that there have been a lot of people I’ve known who started living in the things of God and then at some point in time, they walked away and gave up.

In a world where everything seems to shift—circumstances change, emotions fluctuate, and people can disappoint—there is one thing that remains absolutely unchanging:

One of the things that you and I as believers must learn if we want to be faithful servants in the kingdom of God is how to keep our mouths shut.

First, I want to share where I have been for the past month.

Life can feel overwhelming at times—like everything is happening at once and the noise of circumstances grows louder by the day.

Our verse today celebrates the messenger of God — not for personal glory but for the life-changing message they carry.

The above scripture tells one of my favorite stories of the New Testament.

It’s easy to focus on our weaknesses—our limitations, past mistakes, or the areas where we feel inadequate.

A while back I wrote a devotional titled “Going Through the Go-Throughs.” You know—those unexpected, day-by-day challenges that show up uninvited.

Life doesn’t always feel like victory. Some days feel like setbacks, disappointments, or quiet struggles no one else sees.

The question isn’t simply, “Who can be against us?” That’s an easy one to answer: disease, inflation, corruption, exhaustion, calamities, fears, etc.

Life has a way of stretching us to extremes—highs that make us feel invincible and lows that leave us wondering if God is still near.

The 8th chapter of Romans is one of my favorites. This chapter reminds me who I am in Jesus.

The word compare means, to liken, to examine for similarities or differences. To examine the relations of things to each other.

I am so grateful for Paul’s words, which remind me that God’s rescue is not only a past act to admire but also an ongoing reality we can lean on.

Over the years there’s been a lot of teaching about prosperity, and I’ve heard people say, “I don’t like those prosperity preachers.”

This verse reminds us that our true understanding and revelation come from God's Spirit, not from worldly wisdom.

I’m not usually one for New Year’s resolutions, but there are things I want to improve in 2026.
