Daily Devotional - October 15, 2025


10/15/25

Good morning, Friends,

James 1:5-6 - [5] If you need wisdom, ask our generous God, and He will give it to you. He will not rebuke you for asking.  [6] But when you ask Him, be sure that your faith is in God alone. Do not waver, for a person with divided loyalty is as unsettled as a wave of the sea that is blown and tossed by the wind.

Let’s it real, life can get confusing fast. You’re trying to make the right moves, but the answers aren’t always clear. James reminds us that when we don’t know what to do, we can go straight to God for wisdom. He’s not stingy or annoyed when we ask. In fact, He wants us to come to Him. God gives direction freely, but He wants us to trust Him completely.

When we ask God for help, we can’t halfway believe. Some of us pray for answers but already have a backup plan in case God doesn’t move fast enough. That’s what James calls having “divided loyalty or double-minded.” It’s like trying to walk in two directions at the same time, and we know you’ll never get anywhere trying to do that. God is calling us to stand firm and believe that His way is best, even when we don’t understand it yet.

Think about it like being out on a boat when the water’s rough. If you keep shifting your weight, you’ll keep losing balance. But when you plant your feet and trust the anchor, you stop being tossed around. That’s what faith does, it steadies you when life starts rocking.

Friends, don’t just ask God for wisdom, believe He’ll give it, and be ready to follow where He leads. The peace you’re looking for isn’t found in knowing every answer; it’s found in trusting the One who does.

You know what time ⏰ it is!

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

- Grace & Peace

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 - August 21, 2025

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...
