May 28 – Don’t Stop Trusting Him

In today’s episode, Pastor Cory Barnes shares a devotion from Romans 9, where Paul addresses the tension between Israel pursuing righteousness through the law and the Gentiles receiving righteousness through faith. Paul explains that many in Israel stumbled because they relied on their own efforts rather than trusting in Jesus, the very One sent to save them. This message reminds listeners that the Christian life does not begin by grace and then continue by human striving. Just as salvation comes through faith in Christ, every step of our walk with God must continue through trusting dependence on Him. Pastor Cory encourages believers to examine whether they have started relying more on their own strength, discipline, or performance than on Jesus Himself. As we continually surrender our efforts and place our trust fully in Christ, we remain grounded in the grace that brought us into relationship with Him in the first place.Today’s Reading:May 28 – Isaiah 58–62; Romans 9
