Daily Devotional - July 3, 2025

 

7/3/25

Good morning, Friends, 

Matthew 7:13-14 -[13] “Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. [14] For the gate is narrow and the way is constricted that leads to life, and there are few who find it.

It's easy to follow the path other people are on. There's a such thing called "groupthink", where people tend to follow the direction of the crowd, whether it's in action, thinking, direction, or passions. Jesus Messiah is teaching that wide is the way that leads to destruction. This is a way of the world system, a way that opposes Christ, a way that seeks its own path,  a complete waste of time and energy. This is not a path of Peace, this is not a path Holiness, this is not the path of Almighty God. 

Unfortunately, this wide road leads to people finding themselves and discovering their "true self-value". Sounds harmless? NAH, Nope, Negative!!!! This thinking is the hardcore embodiment of self-worship, pure exaltation on the pedestal of self-divinity. 

Friends, don't be fooled by false teachers and false prophets speaking for a world system that has been dominated by sin and completely submerged into depravity. Jesus Messiah is the way, the truth, and the life, and his way is narrow. The world system hates everything that is godly. Sanctify yourself by throwing yourself on the mercies of God, embracing the grace of God, and obeying the revealed word of God through Jesus Messiah. 

If many people are going in that direction, turn around and head the other way! The wide gate looks fun, but the narrow gate is life! 

Live bold, my friends!

    Amen! It's truly comforting to know that we have a merciful God who guides us back to the right path, even when we stray. The allure of the world can be tempting, but there's always a sense within us that signals we're on the wrong path, even before we come to know Jesus. Thankfully, the door of mercy remains open.

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...

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...

Daily Devotional - December 5, 2025

  12/5/25 Good morning, Friends,  Hebrews 11:13-16 -13 [13] All these people died still believing what God had promised them. They did not receive what was promised, but they saw it all from a distance and welcomed it. They agreed that they were foreigners and nomads here on earth. [14] Obviously people who say such things are looking forward to a country they can call their own. [15] If they had longed for the country they came from, they could have gone back. [16] But they were looking for a better place, a heavenly homeland. That is why God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them. These verses talk about people in the Bible who trusted God but never got to see all His promises come true while they were alive. Abraham didn’t see the whole nation God promised. Moses never stepped foot in the Promised Land. They believed, even when they didn’t get the results they hoped for. That’s real faith, trusting God not because life works out, but be...
