With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.”- Ephesians 6:18 (NIV)When Paul finishes describing the armor of God, he doesn’t end with a dramatic flourish or a heroic charge.

12/02/2025“A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed.”- Proverbs 11:25 (NIV)There is a quiet but powerful rhythm woven into the Kingdom of God. One that moves against the grain of a world that teaches us to hold tightly, protect ourselves, and store up whatever we can. Yet Scripture paints a radically different picture. In God’s economy, giving isn’t loss, it’s gai...  Read More

In ancient Israel, the right hand represented one’s...  Read More

11/30/2025“Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come."- Matthew 24:42 (NIV)In today’s verse, Jesus’ words have a certain holy heft to them. He isn’t attempting to scare us,He’s calling us to be ready. “Keep watch,” He says. Why? We don’t know the day. The uncertainty is not supposed to create anxiety; it’s intended to evoke being on the brink of something.It rem...  Read More

11/28/2025“Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” — John 8:32 (NIV)There is a deep longing in every human heart for freedom, real freedom, not the kind the world advertises. The world equates freedom with doing whatever you want, whenever you want, however you want. But Jesus speaks of a freedom that doesn’t come from unrestrained living; it comes from truth.And not just t...  Read More

11/27/2025“I will give thanks to you, Lord, with all my heart; I will tell of all your wonderful deeds.”— Psalm 9:1 (NIV)Gratitude is more than a polite response to God’s goodness it’s an intentional act of remembering.

11/25/2025“Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap.”— Luke 6:38 (NIV)There’s something beautiful about the way Jesus describes generosity, not as a loss but as an overflow. Yet for many of us, giving doesn’t begin in abundance. It begins in a moment when we’re painfully aware of what we don’t have.A pastor frie...  Read More

11/24/2025“For it will not be you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.”— Matthew 10:20 (NIV)Earlier this year, I sat in a hospital waiting room next to a woman who was visibly nervous. I didn’t know her, didn’t know her story, and honestly didn’t feel like striking up a conversation. I was tired. Mentally drained. Not in “pastor mode.” I just wanted to sit quietly with my ...  Read More

11/22/2025“Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful.”- Colossians 4:2 (NIV)A few months ago, a pastor friend of mine told me about an experience he had while on a trip in the mountains.
