The Beauty of Secret Giving
on May 4th, 2025
But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. - Matthew 6:3–4When you give to the needy, don’t let your left hand know what your right hand is doing. That means—don’t applaud yourself. Don’t keep a record of what God allows you to give. Don’t giv... Read More

Jesus Wants You

In you, Lord, I have taken refuge; let me never be put to shame; deliver me in your righteousness. Turn your ear to me, come quickly to my rescue; be my rock of refuge, a strong fortress to save me. Since you are my rock and my fortress, for the sake of your name lead and guide me. Keep me free from the trap that is set for me, for you are my refuge. Into your hands I commit my spirit; deliver me,... Read More

Seek God First
on May 1st, 2025
But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. (Matthew 6:33) In God’s perfect timing, He will use every detail of your life for His Glory. Anything you have gone through, God can use. You can say, “I'm so broken. I'm so ruined. I'm so damaged.” That doesn’t mean God can’t redeem you. Do you feel like damaged goods? Is there something you ... Read More

Breaking Through Self-Absorption

"Praise the Lord. Praise God in his sanctuary; praise him in his mighty heavens. Praise him for his acts of power; praise him for his surpassing greatness." (Psalm 150:1-2) Have you ever caught yourself thinking more about how you look during worship than about who you're worshiping? I sure have. Last Sunday, I was leading worship and caught myself wondering if people noticed the new guitar I was ... Read More

Come and See
on April 28th, 2025
“Nazareth! Can anything good come from there?” Nathanael asked. “Come and see,” said Philip. – John 1:46When Jesus called Philip, he followed—and then immediately went to his friend Nathanael. He said, “We have found the one Moses wrote about… Jesus of Nazareth.” Nathanael responded skeptically, “Nazareth! Can anything good come from there?” But Philip didn’t argue. He simply said, “Come and see.... Read More

The Power of Your Platform

Look, the Lamb of God! – John 1:36John the Baptist was a teacher and prophet who helped cast a vision that swept across Israel. He preached a message of repentance and prepared the way for Jesus.

Patient Endurance
on April 26th, 2025
This calls for patient endurance on the part of the people of God who keep his commands and remain faithful to Jesus. (Revelation 14:12) In other words, don't give up, walk on, and trust God and His timing. All of “God's saints need to be patiently enduring.” As believers, we are called to trust God, even when we don't understand it. Do you see God doing things that you don’t understand? Does i...

Steps and Stops
on April 25th, 2025
The steps of a godly man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way. (Psalm 37:23) I love the story of A.T. Pearson, who was a great preacher of yesteryear. He had the privilege of opening the Bible of George Mueller, a great man of faith. In the early days of our country, Pearson raised millions of dollars to underwrite the care of orphans in his care. When Pearson opened the Bi... Read More

An Amazing God
on April 24th, 2025
Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us. (Ephesians 3:20) This is one of my all-time favorite verses in Scripture, because it reminds me how God works in ways above and beyond what my human mind can comprehend. Anything we could think up, dream up, or make up in our heads; He can surpass with His goodness and His g... Read More

Giving God’s Way

“Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.” (Luke 6:38) Our giving to God should be described in several different phrases: From your heart, of your resources, through the church, to the Lord.
