God’s love is constant, though it may feel different to us in different seasons.

Jesus’ death on the cross allows us to embrace the soul-gripping freedom of eternity that we are invited to share in as Christians.

“But for all who did receive and trust in Him, He gave them the right to be reborn as children of God” (John 1:12, VOICE).

Humanity is born into a curse of sin we cannot control, but we serve a God who has made a way for us to escape it. This Biblical promise guarantees that “every ear will have a chance to hear,” and Jesus will not come back until then. But He will be back. For those who have accepted Him as our Savior, we will get to gaze into the face of Peace and embrace the King of Kings.

There will be no sickness, death, pain, or suffering in Heaven (Revelation 21:4). We will be reunited with believers who have gone before us (1 Thessalonians 4:17). All of the questions that we have stored up will fall away in the midst of the glory that will surround us when we finally arrive home.

Though we aren’t likely to hear the audible voice of God through a burning bush as Moses did, or in the midst of a dream as Joseph experienced, the One who spoke the earth and the heavens into existence still speaks to us today. When we seek to understand the character of our Creator, our lives will begin to reveal His protective hand.

A foundational relationship with our Father in heaven can be established because of Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross. With His death, the temple curtain was torn, and we were all granted access to the One True God. In the think of life’s unfairness, He stands by our side. Through our mistakes and missteps, His back never turns on us. In our triumphs, He awaits the first high-five of praise. We don’t have to fix or become better versions of ourselves to start hearing from God. He loves each of us for who we are, right now. Though some of the ways He speaks to us today are incomprehensible, here are ten that we can trust expectantly.

Discover how Joshua, facing the immense challenge of leading Israel after Moses, received a powerful divine mandate for unwavering strength and courage. Uncover the timeless principles of faith, obedience, and divine presence that promised him success, and explore how these profound lessons can empower your own journey through life's most daunting tasks.

Faith over fear does not mean believers never feel afraid. It means we learn to bring fear under the authority of God’s truth. This article shares five practical ways to grow stronger faith through confidence in God, endurance, prayerful perspective, godly relationships, and biblical self-care when fear, anxiety, or uncertainty threatens to take over.

When fear feels close, Psalm 27 points you back to the One who is your light and salvation. This devotional invites you to seek God’s face, trust His sheltering care, and rest tonight in His steady presence.

When anxiety starts to take over, Psalm 34 calls you back to praise, peace, and refuge in God. This devotional reminds you that the Lord hears your cries, stays close to your heart, and helps you rest in His presence.

Jabez isn’t like us. He doesn’t live amid our modern materialism. And his prayer can’t be directly applied to us without seeing how it relates to his own situation first and then to Jesus Christ.

Discernment, defined by the English dictionary, means “acuteness of judgment and understanding.” Chapter 3 of Proverbs begins, “My child, never forget the things I have taught you. Store my commands in your heart. If you do this, you will live many years, and your life will be satisfying.” (vv1-2) Discernment allows us a choice. Each day, we choose what to conclude about the Scriptures we have digested and the prayers we have prayed. “Never let loyalty and kindness leave you!” chapter three continues, “Tie them around your neck as a reminder. Write them deep within your heart. Then you will find favor with God and people, and you will earn a good reputation.” (vv3-4)

Prayer is powerful. We hear this a lot, but how often do we pray like we believe prayer has the power to affect our daily life? 

Going back to the basics of our faith is a great way to reset when we are in a downward spiral, but we can’t stay there. We can’t go back and act like the hand of God hasn’t redirected our steps the way He has.
