The Bible Speaks - God Where Are You?
Send us Fan MailNot everything painful experience that touches your life was specifically sent to you. We live in a fallen world. People make sinful decisions. Systems are broken. Bodies fail. Hearts break. Sometimes you suffer because of the ripple effects of life in a world that is far from God’s design.
-
999
The Bible Speaks - The Kingdom Entrepreneur 2.0
Send us Fan MailA Kingdom entrepreneur must understand that excellence is spiritual too. Character matters. Integrity matters. Skill matters. Because many times, what God wants to send to someone else is going to be delivered by you.
-
998
The Bible Speaks - Why Trials Come
Send us Fan MailBecause our intellect is strong. Our flesh is persuasive. Our experience tells us we already know what to do. We convince ourselves that logic alone is enough, that hustle will fix it, that one more plan will save us. And when we keep pushing past what God is trying to show us, sometimes He allows a trial to get our attention back.
-
997
The Bible Speaks - Angels
Send us Fan MailIn a world filled with uncertainty, delays, accidents, spiritual warfare, and situations we do not fully understand, God reminds us that we are never moving through life alone. When we are walking in His will, and even while He is leading us into greater understanding of that will, He has angelic protection working on our behalf in ways we can see and in ways we may never know.
-
996
The Bible Speaks - Kingdom Entrepreneurs
Send us Fan MailDo not separate your faith from your work. Let the Word guide your decisions. Let the Holy Spirit shape your leadership. Let Jesus be seen in your standards, your service, and your stewardship. Because when God’s people do business God’s way, business becomes ministry.
-
995
The Bible Speaks - Fellowship
Send us Fan MailFor some people, your fellowship may be their first real encounter with the character of God. Before they ever believe a sermon, they may first experience His love through your patience. Before they trust Scripture, they may first see His kindness through your care. Before they enter a church, they may first encounter His peace in the safety of your presence.
-
994
The Bible Speaks - Filled With Power
Send us Fan MailMany of us are trying to carry spiritual assignments with natural strength. We want to help people, love people, lead people, build stable homes, restore broken relationships, and walk in peace, but we keep trying to do it out of our own energy. That is why we get overwhelmed.
-
993
The Bible Speaks - The answer is the Word of God
Send us Fan MailIf you are searching for answers today, start where the answer has always been. Open your Bible. Sit with the Lord. Ask the Holy Spirit for understanding. Read slowly. Read prayerfully. Read expecting God to speak. Because He will.
-
992
Words of Inspiration - Because He Got Up
Send us Fan MailBecause He got up, we inherited power. We inherited access. We inherited authority. Not because we are Jesus, but because His Spirit now lives in us and equips us for such a time as this.
-
991
The Bible Speaks - Why You Are Struggling
Send us Fan MailYou were not brought to earth merely to pay bills, survive pressure, and protect your small circle. You were brought here for God’s glory. And in that purpose, He has given you gifts to serve others.
-
990
The Bible Speaks - Is It Worth It?
Send us Fan MailThis is a moment of clarity about how God's provision works and what's required to position yourself for it
-
989
The Bible Speaks - Who are you listening to?
Send us Fan MailWhose voice is shaping your decisions? Whose philosophy is guiding your path? Whose definition of success are you chasing? Make sure it's Christ. Because every other voice, no matter how convincing, will ultimately lead you somewhere you don't want to go.
-
988
The Bible Speaks - Uncertain Times
Send us Fan MailIf all we have to do is study the word of God, allow the Holy Spirit to give us clarity and understanding, model Jesus's life as a servant leader, and trust the process, then "uncertainty" is no longer anything to fear.
-
987
The Bible Speaks - The State of the Union
Send us Fan MailThe state of the union for believers is awesome. Not because circumstances are perfect. Not because politics align with our preferences. Not because the economy is strong or the culture is friendly. The state of our union is awesome because we're connected to Christ, we're heirs with Him, and we're guaranteed an inheritance that can't be shaken.
-
986
The Bible Speaks - What else do you need?
Send us Fan MailYou have Jesus, the truth that anchors you, the way that guides you, the life that empowers you. That's sufficient for every trial, every question, every challenge. Stop looking for answers outside of Him. He is the answer.
-
985
The Bible Speaks - Modern Day Prophets
Send us Fan MailYou don't have to be a Bible scholar because the Lord uses the experiences we have and His deliverance as our tools for reaching others. Your story of God's grace, healing, provision, or deliverance is a prophetic message to someone facing what you've already survived.
-
984
The Bible Speaks - Do You Know Who You Are?
Send us Fan MailYour identity isn't just for your benefit, it's for God's glory through blessing others. When you walk in who you are, people see God's power. When you operate in your calling, they witness His faithfulness. When you use your gifts to serve, they experience His love.
-
983
The Bible Speaks - It's Cold Outside
Send us Fan MailThe cold outside isn't just weather. It's the chill of a society retreating into selfishness. But believers don't have to participate in that cold. We can be the warmth. We can be the hand that reaches out when everyone else is pulling back. We can be proof that even in the hardest economic times, love doesn't freeze.
-
982
The Bible Speaks - The Seasons of Life
Send us Fan MailDon’t measure your season by how it feels—measure it by what God is forming in you. And don’t fear the new thing—ask God for spiritual perception to recognize it. Because the same God who brought you through your last season is already standing in your next one.
-
981
Words of Inspiration - Trust the Process
Send us Fan MailToday, we’ll explore what it means to trust God’s process, why it’s worth it, and how to rest in the assurance that He is shaping you for His purposes and glory.
-
980
Words of Inspiration - A Dedicated Life (revisited)
Send us Fan MailAs believers, we, too, have a responsibility to live lives dedicated to pleasing God and serving others. When we do, we become vessels for modern-day miracles—bringing change to our homes, workplaces, and communities.
-
979
Words of Inspiration - Wonders and Signs
Send us Fan MailThis verse captures the miraculous power at work in the early church, demonstrating that miracles were not just extraordinary events, but purposeful acts of God. Today, we’ll explore the purpose of miracles in Scripture and how we too can bring miraculous change into the world around us.
-
978
Words of Inspiration - Foreshadowing Jesus (revisited)
Send us Fan MailThroughout the Bible, we see incredible examples of how God, in His divine wisdom, foreshadowed the coming of Jesus Christ, showing us that He is the solution for all that we need. Today, we’ll explore five powerful examples from Scripture that point directly to Jesus, and we’ll conclude by discussing how we can reflect Jesus in our lives today.
-
977
Words of Inspiration - Indivisible (revisited)
Send us Fan MailGod’s love is so deeply intertwined with His character that it cannot be undone. This spiritual indivisibility is what gives us the confidence to move forward boldly in life, knowing that we are secure in Him.
-
976
The Bible Speaks - It's Okay to Ask God Why (Revisited)
Send us Fan MailWhen we ask God why in our suffering, it’s not wrong. Like Job, we may not get the exact answers we want, but God offers His presence, reminding us that He is still in control, even in the chaos.
-
975
Words of Inspiration - Well Doing
Send us Fan MailI want to speak directly to those of you who are pouring into difficult situations or relationships when helping someone feels overwhelming. I want to remind you that God sees your efforts, and He will bless you for your faithfulness.
-
974
Words of Inspiration - For God, With God
Send us Fan MailThis discussion reminds us of the limitless power of God when we align our lives with His will. Today, we’re going to explore what it means to live for God and with God—how the things we desire in life can be achieved far easier when our purpose is centered on Him.
-
973
Words of Inspiration - Dedicated
Send us Fan MailThere are people right now praying for solutions, breakthroughs, and hope. God often answers those prayers through us. But to be used by God, we must be fully committed to becoming the vessels He can work through. Let’s explore what it means to live a life of dedication.
-
972
Words of Inspiration - Empowerment
Send us Fan MailEmpowerment is not just about giving people the tools to succeed—it's about helping them draw out the God-given gifts, wisdom, and potential already placed inside them. But before we can empower others effectively, we must first be empowered ourselves.
-
971
Words of Inspiration - Guiding
Send us Fan MailWhen we think of guiding others in the context of relationships, we often think of giving advice or pointing people in the right direction. But biblical guidance goes much deeper. It’s about commitment—laying down your life, not in a literal sense but through selfless sacrifice. Putting your plans aside for God’s purpose and the service of others.
-
970
The Bible Speaks - Accountable
Send us Fan MailYou are accountable—to your family, your workplace, your community, and most importantly, to God. When you live with accountability, you not only grow personally but also become a powerful example of Christ’s love in action.
-
969
Words of Inspiration - The book of Nahum Introduction
Send us Fan MailAs we study Nahum together, we'll see God's righteous anger against systematic cruelty, His defense of the vulnerable, and His ultimate sovereignty over all nations. We'll be reminded that no evil is too powerful to escape His judgment and no oppressor too mighty to face His wrath.
-
968
Words of Inspiration - True Forgiveness
Send us Fan MailMicah ends where we all need to end: marveling at a God whose mercy triumphs over judgment, whose forgiveness is thorough and complete, and whose delight is in loving us despite what we've done.
-
967
Words of Inspiration - What God expects from you
Send us Fan MailSo stop being overwhelmed by lifestyle expectations. Simplify. God's not measuring your success by your house size or bank account. He's watching whether you act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly. Do those three things consistently, and everything else falls into place. Your assignment gets accomplished. Disciples get made. The gospel spreads. And when your time on earth is complete, you'll hear, "Well done."
-
966
Words of Inspiration - Looking in the wrongplaces
Send us Fan MailWhere is God actually working? In faithful small churches nobody notices. Through believers praying in obscurity. In missionaries serving without platforms. Through ordinary people loving their neighbors. In humble acts of obedience that don't trend on social media. That's where God's kingdom advances. That's where deliverance emerges.
-
965
Words of Inspiration - Religious Hypocrisy
Send us Fan MailReligious position provides no immunity from judgment. In fact, it guarantees greater accountability. The disaster they said wouldn't come? It's already on the way for those who exploit God's people while claiming God's protection.
-
964
The Bible Speaks - A Warning from God
Send us Fan MailWe must remember, God sees it all, the midnight scheming, the morning violence, the calculated cruelty. You might execute your schemes under legal cover. You might justify your exploitation with business language. But God sees the heart behind the transaction. And He holds perpetrators accountable.
-
963
Words of Inspiration - The book of Micah Introduction
Send us Fan MailAs we study Micah together, we'll be challenged to align our lives with what God actually requires. We'll confront our own participation in unjust systems. We'll examine whether our religion produces righteousness or just religious routine. But we'll also discover a God whose mercy triumphs over judgment, whose forgiveness is deeper than the sea, and whose requirements—though demanding—lead to life.
-
962
Words of Inspiration - A New Thing
Send us Fan MailGod is making a way in your wilderness. Rivers in your desert. Breakthroughs in your barrenness. But you have to choose the path that leads there. Choose wisely. Choose obediently. Choose surrender. And watch what God does with a life fully yielded to Him in 2026.
-
961
Words of Inspiration - Confession
Send us Fan MailNone of us deserved the grace we received. Nineveh didn't. Jonah didn't. We don't. But God is faithful. And that faithfulness means everyone is worth His mercy—including you, including your enemies, including the people whose salvation makes you uncomfortable.
-
960
Words of Inspiration - God's Heart
Send us Fan MailWhen you face God's warnings in your own life—conviction of sin, consequences looming, spiritual alarm bells ringing—remember Nineveh. Those warnings aren't death sentences. They're opportunities. God is giving you forty days, forty minutes, forty seconds to turn. He's not hoping to judge you. He's hoping to save you.
-
959
Words of Inspiration - Being Accountable to God
Send us Fan MailWe love thinking we can earn our way out. Pray enough—maybe God will respond. Fast long enough—perhaps He'll notice. Quote enough Scripture—surely that will move Him. But Jonah learned what we must: God responds to humility, not productivity.
-
958
The Bible Speaks - Deliverance
Send us Fan MailGod's love for you is so strong that He'll use whatever it takes to rescue you from destruction and restore you to purpose. Trust His methods, even when they're uncomfortable. His deliverance is always worth it.
-
957
Words of Inspiration - Who are you really running from?
Send us Fan MailWhen you disobey God's call, you're not just avoiding the assignment—you're running from God Himself. You can't separate God from His will. You can't say, "I love God, but I refuse His mission." Rejecting His call is rejecting Him.
-
956
Words of Inspiration - The Greatest Gift
Send us Fan MailAs we spend time with friends and family this Christmas Day, make sure you take time to truly thank the Father for the greatest gift ever given. Not just the gifts under the tree, but the Gift from the tree—the cross. Not just the celebration of His birth, but gratitude for His life, death, and ongoing intercession.
-
955
Words of Inspiration - The Book of Jonah Introduction
Send us Fan MailAs we study Jonah together, we'll discover that this isn't just an ancient story about a prophet and a fish. It's a contemporary challenge to embrace God's mission even when it makes us uncomfortable, to extend mercy even to our enemies, and to recognize that sometimes the greatest work God needs to do is in us, not through us.
-
954
Words of Inspiration - With God we win
Send us Fan MailObadiah teaches us that judgment is real, consequences are unavoidable, and sin is serious. But it also teaches us that God's kingdom triumphs, His people are restored, and His rule is eternal. So hold on. Stay faithful. Keep believing. Because with God, we win.
-
953
Words of Inspiration - You reap what you sow
Send us Fan MailExamine your life today. What seeds are you planting? Are you showing mercy or practicing cruelty? Are you defending the vulnerable or exploiting them? Are you lifting the oppressed or adding to their burden? Because whatever you're sowing, you will reap. It's not if—it's when.
-
952
The Bible Speaks - Looking the other way
Send us Fan MailWhen a family member is struggling with addiction, you intervene. When a coworker is being mistreated, you speak up. When a church member is falling away, you reach out. When injustice unfolds in your community, you act. When someone's reputation is being destroyed, you defend them. You don't look the other way and justify your silence.
-
951
Words of Inspiration - Betrayal
Send us Fan MailHave you betrayed family? Have you harmed those you should protect? Have you celebrated when a brother or sister fell? Repent now. Make it right. Because the same God who judged Edom forever still judges family betrayal severely.
