Daily Devotional - July 7, 2025

7/7/25 

Good morning, Friends, 

Matthew 7:24-25 -  [24] “Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine and does them, may be compared to a wise man who built his house on the rock. [25] And the rain descended, and the rivers came, and the winds blew and fell against that house; and yet it did not fall, for it had been founded on the rock.

Those who are wise build on a strong foundation. A foolish person builds on a weak foundation, caring more about what the establishment looks like, instead of ensuring the foundation would stand against all elements. 

Friends, Jesus Messiah was instructing the people to understand that by hearing his words and putting them into "action" is the same as being wise builder. A wise builder understands that the rain will fall, storms will come, and opposition will arise,  but they wholeheartedly trust in the foundation built on Jesus to hold it down. There's no fear of the outcome of the storm, no anxiety about the length of the storm,  nor stress about the devastation it may leave behind, because we are fixed on the Word of God. Our allegiance is to Him, not just in word only, but in ACTION!

The world system has lied to us, deceived us into believing our lives are all about our comfort and peace. This system has spread lies to enslave us to be individualistic, void of biblical obedience, lacking in theological understanding, seekers of riches, unconcerned about scriptural integrity and character. This is the foundation of the foolish, building on everything except Jesus Messiah and his teachings. 

Build on a firm foundation. 
Don't be deceived.
The winds will come. 
The floods will rage. 
The storms will be fierce. 
But all those who put their trust in Jesus Messiah will be saved!

HAND ME THE HAMMER 🔨 ,  it's time to build our lives on the Word of God!!!!!

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

- Grace & Peace

    That's our problem. We say we have built the house on a solid foundation on the rock. But soon as the Storms comes, we start getting scared. Where's our trust in God our solid foundation whom we say we have built on. Amen 🙏

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...
