6/21/25

Good morning, Beloved of God,

Acts of the Apostles 20:24 NLT

[24] But my life is worth nothing to me unless I use it for finishing the work assigned me by the Lord Jesus—the work of telling others the Good News about the wonderful grace of God.

Paul communicated a glaring truth, so integral it bears repeating "but my life is worth nothing to me unless I use it for finishing the work assigned me by the Lord Jesus..."

Not only was it a  major declaration but Paul stood on business!!! He knew that he would never see the saints in that region again. He knew the road ahead of him led to incarceration and ultimately, death. But....he only seems concerned about whether he finished the assignment the Lord Jesus gave him. 

Friends, this is a bold message. A message of deep encouragement that transforms our will to the Holy, magnificent will of God. 

Imagine what your life would be like if lived solely according to the direction we received from the word of God. Imagine a life so intense, so fired up for God, that we are not ashamed, nor silent about the Holy Scriptures, nor  consumed by the world system,  nor any other hindrance or distraction. Instead we are bold as the apostles, consumed with Word of God like the prophets, willing to sacrifice it all, like the men and women of faith so passionately did. 

Emphatically consumed! Fully, locked and loaded. Raging with purpose. Bubbling over with anticipation . Immersed with the mission. 

THIS, RIGHT HERE!!!! 

Yo, Paul was on another level, he was sure of the mission. Are you also someone who is absorbed with doing God's work, for God's glory, for God's kingdom, in God's name?

Remember friends," Your life speaks so loudly, people can hardly hear what you're saying"

OVER AND OUT,  SOLDIER! 🪖


Maranatha (The Lord is coming)  
Soli Deo Gloria (Glory to God Alone)

- Grace & Peace
Pastor Trent

    Just to know the work that you have been placed on this earth to do is a blessing, but to actually walk in ones purpose knowing you will face persecution is faith on a whole other level, and its faith that much of this western world lack. No exclusion here, unfortunately.

      I agree! Purpose and Persecution walk together!

Devotional Reading - December 16, 2025

12/16/25 Good morning, Friends,  Acts 4:12 - [12] And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved. BOLDNESS! In the chapter before this, Peter heals a man who had been disabled his whole life. The crowd is amazed. Everyone’s staring at Peter and John like they’re the heroes. But Peter shuts all that down immediately. He tells them straight up: “This wasn’t us. This was God working through Jesus Christ.” Peter refuses the spotlight and points all the credit where it belongs. That’s the same bold truth behind this verse, Jesus Christ alone saves. No exceptions. No substitutes. No backup plans. Peter is standing in front of religious leaders who believed they were right with God because of rules, traditions, and family history. And Peter doesn’t sugarcoat it. He tells them clearly: none of that saves you. Not religion. Not good behavior. Not being sincere. Not choosing another spiritual lane. Only J...

Daily Devotional - October 29, 2025

  10/29/25 Good morning, Friends,  Luke 22:33–34 (LSB) — “But he said to Him, ‘Lord, with You I am ready to go both to prison and to death!’ But He said, ‘I say to you, Peter, the rooster will not crow today until you have denied three times that you know Me.’” Peter really meant well. His heart was full of passion and loyalty when he told Jesus he’d follow Him anywhere,  even to prison or death. But when the pressure hit, fear took over, and Peter did exactly what he swore he wouldn’t: he denied Jesus three times . This moment reminds us that good intentions aren’t the same as strong faith. Sometimes we’re like Peter, real quick to say, “Lord, I’ll never turn my back on You,” but then life gets real. The heat rises, the crowd’s watching, and suddenly we shrink back. Jesus wasn’t trying to embarrass Peter; He was exposing Peter’s weakness so He could strengthen 💪 him later. God still does that with us today. He lets us see how fragile our confidence is when it’s built on...

Devotional Reading - January 1, 2026

  01/01/26 Happy new year and O' happy day! Good morning, Friends,  Luke 17:5 - And the apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith! In this passage Jesus was teaching His disciples about forgiveness, not the easy kind, but the kind that keeps forgiving even when it’s hard, frustrating, and painful. He was calling them to be patient and long-suffering with people who mess up again and again. The disciples realized real quick that they didn't have enough faith to carry this out on their own. They could've complained, threw a tantrum, got an attitude with Jesus, but the radical part about it is they didn't act fake or make excuses. They went straight to Jesus and said, “Increase our faith.” That’s a powerful moment right there! The disciples understood that following Jesus isn’t just about trying harder. Sometimes it’s about admitting, “Lord, I don’t have what this requires.” They saw a spiritual gap in themselves and knew only Jesus could fill it. Check it out, incr...
