Daily Devotional - June 21, 2025


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

  2. 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.

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...

8/21/25 Good morning, Friends,  1 Thessalonians 4:11 -11 and to make it your ambition to lead a quiet 🤫 life and attend to your own business and work with your hands, just as we commanded you, Everybody these days wants to shine. Social media has people chasing likes, clout, and attention, trying to be seen instead of just being faithful. But the Word of God cuts through all that noise: “Lead a quiet life. Mind your business. Work with your hands.” That’s not flashy. That won’t go viral. But that’s the grind God respects. See, real strength isn’t in being loud, it’s in being steady. Paul’s saying, stop being thirsty for the spotlight, stop running your mouth in other people’s affairs, and stop leaning on folks when you could be putting in your own work. Truth is, mooching off others while you got the ability to grind is lazy, and laziness is sin. God gave you gifts, skills, and breath in your lungs so use them. Don’t be that person always asking but never giving, always watching b...

Daily Devotional - September 10, 2025

9/10/25 Good morning, Friends, Psalm 69:1 LSB [1] Save me, O God, For the waters have threatened my life. Have you ever felt like life was drowning you? Like problems kept piling up 📈, bills, stress, health, relationships, and no matter how hard you tried, you just couldn’t keep your head above water? That’s exactly how David felt when he wrote ✍🏾 this verse. He wasn’t talking about actual water 🌊, he was describing the feeling of being overwhelmed and sinking fast. Instead of trying to fight 🥊 through it on his own, David cried out to God: “Save me, O God.” That’s the turning point. When we reach the end of ourselves, God is still strong enough to lift us up. Let's keep it 💯 with God. You don’t have to fake it with Him. If you’re struggling, tell Him straight up. He can handle your honest prayers. Depend on Him!! You don’t have to do life alone or in your own strength. God is able to rescue, comfort, and steady you when you feel like you’re going under. If you fee...
