This devotion begins with humans being called to reflect the rule and reign of God. But people turned away, seeking to build their own Kingdoms. This quickly turned to violence and oppression.

Our word for today is procrastination. It means the act or habit of putting off or delaying, especially something requiring immediate attention. Are you putting something off that needed to be done a few hours, days, weeks, months or even years ago? This something could be as serious as your health, finances, family, relationships, work, […]

Perseverance
Have you ever put energy into a relationship, but it didn’t work out? What about a new business venture but you are still struggling with finances? Sometimes, people get discouraged in life because things didn’t turn out the way they hoped. Now they think it’s never going to happen. But one thing we must learn […]
We pray because we want something to change in our lives. Every day, we are attacked by many different circumstances — financial insecurities, health problems, or even relationship issues. Most of us find prayer “a remedy” to these problems. But what if the answer is different from what we expected? That’s probably why God used […]
One of my favorite songs starts out by saying, “I can only imagine.” When was the last time you imagined God doing something supernatural in your life? Is there a relationship that needs restoration? Is there a business you’ve wanted to start, but are holding back? If there were no limitations on your life if […]
Repetition Deepens Impression
Notice in today’s verse, God’s people were commanded to go around saying continually, “Let God be magnified.

When Paul in Scripture wrote he was in chains, arrested for preaching the gospel, everything in his surroundings was “limited.” But instead of looking at his surroundings, Paul kept his eyes on the limitless God. Paul, kept looking for […]
Words Have Life
Anytime we speak something, either good or bad, we are giving life to what we are saying. Too many people go around saying negative things about themselves, their family and their future. Things like, “I’ll never be successful. This sickness is going to kill me. Business is so slow I will have to close it. […]
It’s All About Your Perspective
After one of the biggest revivals in Preston and many people giving their heart to the Lord, I find myself focused on what’s wrong in life, what I don’t have, and how big my obstacles are. If we’re not careful, we’ll lose sight of all the good things God has done. We’ll take for granted […]
