Instead of overthinking faith, we are invited to embody the simple, life-giving practices Jesus and Paul laid before us.

I want to remind you that drifting doesn’t happen because you set out to abandon your faith—it happens when you fail to anchor yourself in Jesus’ words and let them shape your life.

God delights to bless His people, but that blessing often follows confession, correction, and faithful work. Let His goodness be seen in us.

Like Daniel, we serve a living God whose kingdom endures forever. When the heat turns up, let’s remind one another: Our God still delivers.

God’s commands aren’t complicated—love, obey, and walk with Him. Jesus echoed this truth. As we pray and say “Amen,” may we live with purpose, showing His love in everyday ways.

True strength comes from standing firm in God's ways and reflecting His image, even in our weaknesses.

The Israelites' repeated failures to obey God’s commandments serve as a backdrop to Jesus’ obedience, where He exemplifies the power of doing God’s word, even in the face of temptation.

The world may seem dark, but just as Noah found favor in God's eyes during a corrupt time, we too are chosen for assignments that allow God's grace to shine through us. Our response should be one of obedience, trusting that God equips us for the work He calls us to.

Just as Jesus called his first disciples and sent them out after his resurrection, he calls us today to be obedient in sharing the good news with others. He can and will do that through us in our businesses, our friendships, and in our communities. 

The story of Elijah’s wilderness experience, where ravens brought him food, serves as a powerful reminder of God’s ability to meet our needs, no matter the situation.

As Elijah experienced worsening conditions despite his obedience, God’s provision for both Elijah and the widow demonstrates that faithfulness and trust in God’s promises can lead to miraculous outcomes.

Drawing from the story of Abraham and his willingness to sacrifice his son, Paul emphasizes that true faith involves presenting our lives to God, trusting in His provision and embracing His perfect will.

Despite his pivotal role as a leader, Moses is not often immediately associated with prayer in popular perception, yet his journey reveals a consistent pattern of intimate dialogue and supplication with God.

Through the Holy Spirit living in us we experience God taking us by the hand and keeping us. We watch daily as our former ways of sin fade and our new life in Christ emerges as we submit each day to the lordship of Christ.

Isaiah's assurance of victory over adversaries resonates with the psalmist's words, reminding believers of God's promise to preserve and deliver them from trouble.

When we trust in the promises of God and heed to the prompting of the Holy Spirit, we will see evidence that the words of the prophet are true and reliable even today.

Our obedience matters.

Aim to practice servanthood today and every day.

God will never abandon us.

There is a moment when each of us must consider if at the words of Jesus, we would be willing to shift our focus to the kingdom work of Jesus over and above anything else we might be trained to do.
