Daily Devotional - November 26, 2025

Good morning, Friends, 

Matthew 17:20 - "You don’t have enough faith,” Jesus told them. “I tell you the truth, if you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it would move. Nothing would be impossible.

When Jesus told the disciples they lacked faith, He wasn’t telling them to try harder or dig deeper into their own strength. In that moment, they failed because they were depending on themselves instead of depending on Christ Jesus, the One who has all power. And here’s the truth sitting right inside this verse, even the smallest faith is powerful only because Christ is the One who gives it, sustains it, and works through it. A mustard seed ain’t big at all, but when Christ is behind it, that tiny seed becomes unstoppable. Jesus isn’t calling you to be strong in yourself; He’s calling you to trust His strength, His authority, His Word, His power.

Check it out, have you ever been in a moment where you felt empty, drained, confused, or overwhelmed and all you could manage was a simple “Lord, help me”? Guess what? That little faith wasn’t something you produced. That was Christ Jesus holding you up, giving you the strength to pray, keeping you from quitting, and empowering you to stand. You didn’t move the mountain, Christ did. He’s the mountain-mover, the chain-breaker, the burden-lifter.

So, let's stop measuring faith by how we feel. Start measuring it by the One your faith is in , Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, the Savior who never fails. The disciples learned that faith that has no power, is faith that trusts in itself, but powerful faith is faith that leans completely on Christ.

Even if your faith feels small today, if Christ Jesus planted it in you, it’s enough. He grows it. He strengthens it. He uses it. Mountains don't move because you’re great, but because Christ is the Mighty One.

You know what time ⏰ it is!!!

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...
