Start here if you’ve ever felt like religion gets too loud to hear the heart of God. We open Isaiah 42:1–9 and sit with the Servant who brings justice without shouting, carries truth without crushing the bruised, and invites us into a life that heals instead of hurries. This is a tender, steady vision of Jesus—delighting the Father, anointed by the Spirit, and committed to making things right with a strength the world often overlooks. We walk through the text in three movements. First, we ex...

Power, Love, And A Sound Mind
Fear is loud right now, but it doesn’t have to be in charge. We open Scripture to Malachi and face a difficult situation; God is confronting careless leadership. But not to crush his people, rather to restore life and peace. The language is strong, the warning is clear, and the purpose is love. From there we see Paul’s reminder of power, love, and a sound mind. These help us see God in the noise rather than be shaped by it. We walk through Malachi 2:1–9, where priests drift from reve...

When the world shakes - stand firm in your faith.
Panic spreads fast, but peace moves faster. We open the door to a calm, steady way of living by tracing a clear line from Scripture to the choices we make when pressure rises. Drawing from Micah 3 and 6, we face the hard truth about corrupt leadership, false spiritual confidence, and the harm done when people become tools for personal gain. Then we turn to what God actually wants from us—not showy offerings or performative faith, but a life shaped by justice, mercy, and humility. While stri...

What We Hold Can Hold Us: Turning From Clay Idols To Lasting Hope
A single word from an ancient prophet can unmask the stories we tell ourselves about success. We open Habakkuk 2:6–14 and confront three devastating “woes” that speak to our age; wealth taken at the expense of others, security propped up by pride, and cities built on injustice. The imagery is unforgettable; possessions are thick clay, clinging to our lives, burdening our minds, and isolating us from God and neighbor. When comfort becomes a god, the upkeep never ends, and the conscience never...

Where is God when I'm hurting
Ever looked at the chaos around you and whispered, “How long?” Today we walk with Habakkuk through raw questions about evil, silence, and the strange mercy of God’s correction—and we find a sturdier peace than circumstances can offer. We open the text where the prophet names violence, crooked judgment, and fear that grips communities, then we follow his turn toward remembrance: God is everlasting, holy, and unwavering. That shift from complaint about God to conversation with God become...

God doesn’t want your songs if He doesn’t have your heart
Together we unpack two unforgettable images: a man fleeing a lion only to meet a bear, another resting at home who is then bitten by a serpent. Those scenes expose two modern traps—keeping God at arm’s length and mistaking familiar routines for spiritual safety. Then comes the piercing center: God rejects songs and feasts when the heart is far away. Not because God opposes music or celebration, but because He loves integrity—worship that overflows into fair dealings, compassion for the...

The scripture presents a fascinating contrast between human friendship and divine relationship. While even our closest friends may disappoint us in times of desperate need, God remains steadfastly present. We delve into the meaning of "importunit...

The Names tell the story
Genesis Chapter 51 This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him;2 Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created.3 And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, and after his image; and called his name Seth:4 And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were eight hundred years: and he begat sons and daughters:5 And all the...

Good Fruit
What is Jesus saying in John 15:1-6 when He refers to branches being taken away?=========John 15:1-6 King James Version (KJV)=========1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.3 Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.4 Abide in me, and I in you.

Consequences
The verses for today are a warning for us as well as a great hope. The Chaldeans here are described as a lawless people who do not care about the weak nor the poor. They are probably happy in their day to day lives taking care of themselves and their families. Working and living their lives with no concern for those around them on whom their ease heavily sits. Can this be said of us? Are we enjoying our lives while intentionally ignoring those who make our lives ...
