Praying To Remind Yourself
on February 19th, 2026
Prayer is an ongoing conversation with God. Praying without ceasing should be the default position for every believer as they live moment by moment. Many of our prayers are more self-reminders than news flashes for heaven. This prayer is the same. The psalmist is verbalizing in prayer a fresh commitment to the Lord to live a certain way. We could learn a great deal from him today, if we would simply implement the same kind of prayer. Read More

Praise the Lord
on February 18th, 2026
Whether you are a morning person or an evening person does not matter. The words that come out of our mouths every day do matter. The psalmist is calling on himself to engage with praise and we should consider doing the very same thing ourselves every day. Notice the self-talk here and in other passages of Scripture. Surely, like the writer of this Psalm, you have talked to yourself at times. A man once said, “This is how I am assured of having an intelligent conversation.” If you need motivation, tell yourself to get up, get awake and get actively praising the Lord. Read More

It’s All About Jesus
on February 17th, 2026
I accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior when I was 12 years old. The moment I turned from sin and placed my faith in Jesus Christ, I rode my bicycle home singing and praising God. Filled with joy, I made up words to a new song. (I wish I had written the words down because I thought they were pretty good at the time.) Read More

Walking Humbly with God
on February 16th, 2026
This verse is very familiar, a verse which we should be applying to our everyday lives. However, we need to take a deeper look at the end of the verse and define what it means to walk humbly with our God. Read More

Never Stop Worshiping
on February 15th, 2026
The angels never stop worshiping. Night and day, they continue to worship the Lord; they never stop. That needs to apply to us; because they don't stop, we shouldn't stop. That doesn't mean you sing songs all the time, but you are honoring God all the time. Nothing is more important than for you to stay lined up with Him when you worship Him. If you are having a difficult time aligning and looking at the throne, you need to worship until you are aligned with the throne, and then stay right there. Read More

Forgetting Your First Love
on February 14th, 2026
The first step to apostasy is falling out of love with Jesus. The church at Ephesus had lost the passion and the fire for Christ. Now they are living on the fumes of what they once had. Jesus said, “I have a big concern. You have fallen out of love with Me. You have left your first love.” Read More

Truth Over Applause
on February 13th, 2026
Who are you trying to please?
Here's a real problem many of us face: We think we need to please people. When that happens, one of two things occurs. Either we stay silent and uninvolved because we're afraid of saying the wrong thing, or we get manipulated into only telling people what they want to hear.

Trust over Worry
on February 12th, 2026
I read a quote that said, “Once you become a parent, you never stop worrying for the rest of your life.” If you have children, I’m sure you can identify with this statement. We worry about our children. We worry about how they are doing in school. We worry about the decisions they make and the friends they have. We worry about making sure they stay well fed and decently clothed. We worry about making enough money so we can buy them the things they need. We worry about everything when it comes to our children’s lives. Read More

A Safe Person
on February 11th, 2026
My definition of a safe person is an individual who can see and listen to your pain without passing judgment. They don’t offer trite recipes for “the fix you need,” and they trust the work of the Holy Spirit in your life. That’s a friend…a real friend. Does that mean they will always agree with you or justify your sinful choices? Of course not! As “truth speakers,” they know “when,” “how” and in “what tone” to speak truth to you. Read More

Seek God First
on February 10th, 2026
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. Read More

Do Your Words And Your Actions Matchup?
on February 9th, 2026
There’s an age old saying that goes like this, “Don’t just talk the talk, but walk the walk.” We’ve all heard this statement at one time or another. People say this phrase when they want action. They don’t want to just hear what someone has to say. They want to know that the person talking can back their words up with their behavior. Read More

Don’t Abuse Your Free Will
on February 8th, 2026
One gift that God has given you as a human being is free will. Because He has given you free will, God will never make you do something. He will not force you to do something, even if the thing you’re going to do is not what He wants you to do. He will abide by your personal will. Read More
