June 21 Play to win

Play to Win

Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?

- 1 John 5:5

I’ve often heard people say, “It’s not whether you win or lose, it’s how you play the game.” That’s nonsense. If you play the game right, you’ll win!

Any coach will tell you that part of playing the game right is having a winning attitude. That’s what God wants us, as believers, to have. He wants us to have so much faith in Him that we expect to whip any obstacle t

Know God's Will

Except the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it.

- Psalm 127:1

What a time of monumental decisions and changes we’re living in. If there ever was a day when you and I must know God’s will and purpose for our lives, it’s now.

In fact, nothing else is going to work! God is changing and rearranging things, lining them up for the end-time move of the Spirit. If you’re going to keep up, you must know God’s perfect plan for your life—and how to car

June 19 Love

Develop the Love

And what this love consists in is this: that we live and walk in accordance with and guided by His commandments (His orders, ordinances, precepts, teaching). This is the commandment, as you have heard from the beginning, that you continue to walk in love [guided by it and following it].

- 2 John 1:6, The Amplified Bible

Quite simply, God says love is keeping His commandments. That brings love out of the indefinite into something explicit. But God has done mor

June 18 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. - Colossians 3:2

As the material blessings of God come your way, remember, God has not trained you in His Word so you can consume it on your own lusts. He has revealed His Word to you so you can walk in the spirit and do the job He’s called you to do.

Don’t let the things of this world cause you to miss out on the glorious things of the spirit. Get your priorities in line with God’s Word. Set your mind on things above, and you’ll discover just how heavenly life was really meant to be!

June 17 Never Alone

Some mornings in ministry, I walk in carrying more than I let on. The pressure of leading well. The needs I don't have answers for.And then I come back to this: "For you, O Lord, are good and forgiving, abounding in steadfast love to all who call upon you. Give ear, O Lord, to my prayer; listen to my cry for help. In the day of my trouble I call upon you, for you answer me." —Psalm 86:5-7God isn't bothered by your need. He's leaning in, attentive, ready to answer.Whatever

June 16

Have you ever looked back on a moment and realized God was working long before you ever saw the answer?

Before the breakthrough came, He was preparing it.

Before the direction became clear, He was arranging the steps.

Before the encouragement arrived, He was already at work.

That's why anticipation is such a powerful part of faith. We don't have to wonder if God is moving; we can trust that He is.

He is faithful to meet those who seek HimHe is already working on your behalfHe...

June 15 Pray for Peace

Over the past several months, my heart has been increasingly burdened for Israel.

Like many of you, I've watched the events unfolding in the Middle East and the growing hostility toward Israel and the Jewish people around the world. What concerns me even more is that many believers are becoming unsure how they should respond.

But I want to encourage you to step back from the noise for a moment and remember something important:

Our relationship to Israel as believers is not ul

June 14 PROMISES His Gifts

PROMISES His Gifts

"Whereby are given unto us great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the Divine Nature." — 2Pe_1:4.

PRECIOUS FAITH and precious promise are necessarily linked together (2Pe_1:1-4). The promises excite the faith, and faith reckons upon the fulfilment of promise. One is sometimes asked why it is that God's Word seems to fail, and that the righteous do appear to be forsaken! But surely the reason is, not that there is any failure on

June 13 Addicted to the Word

Addicted to the Word

Ye know the house of Stephanas...and that they have addicted themselves to the ministry of the saints.

- 1 Corinthians 16:15

I want you to begin to develop an addiction today—an addiction to the Word of God. That may sound odd to you, especially if you don’t have much of an interest in the Word right now. But, believe me, it’s possible. I’ve done it myself and I’ve seen others do it, time and again.

All you have to do is make a decision to give yourself to

June 12 God’s Rx

Repeat these Confessions 3x a day *no harmful side effects.

Confessions for All Immune Systems

My immune system functions perfectly in the way God created it to function. It is fully developed and balanced. Wisdom is imparted to my immune system today to reject all pathogens and accept all that is good. (Amos 5:14-15, Deuteronomy 30:15 & 19)***

I am immune to sickness and disease. I recognize and accept that which is good. I am able to stand in the presence of sickness and in

June 11 High Priest of Your confession

High Priest of Your Confession

Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession [or confession], Christ Jesus.

- Hebrews 3:1

Very few believers today understand the mystery of the apostleship and priesthood of Jesus. We think that an apostle is some kind of supersaint. But apostle actually means “sent one.” So, Jesus has been sent from God to do something for us.

He’s been sent to serve as our High Priest. Agai

June 10 Strength Made Perfect

Strength Made Perfect

And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

- 2 Corinthians 12:9

When you run into an impossible situation, a situation you simply don’t have the strength or the ability to handle, are you often tempted to simply give up and accept defeat? Don’t! Instead shout, “Glory!” because the Word says God’s

June 9 ‌ ‌ Free From Fear

‌

Free From Fear

For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.

- 2 Timothy 1:7

What would you think if I told you that you could live without fear? Would you believe me if I said that despite what you saw on the news tonight, you could be perfectly at peace? Impossible? Unrealistic? No!

You see, fear isn’t just a reaction to external circumstances. It’s a spiritual force. It begins inside of you. And it is totally destructive. In

June 8 The Great Escape

The Great Escape

Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

- Proverbs 3:5-6

Once you start stepping out in faith and walking in the spirit, the devil will see to it that you have ample opportunity to fall flat on your spiritual face. He’ll try to get you into some jams where there appears to be no way out.

But take it from me as one who’s been there, if you’ll look to God a

June 7 RE-SET

Start With a Spiritual Realignment

Before you revisit your goals or restructure your calendar, begin by resetting your heart. Scripture calls us to bring our entire lives before God—not just the spiritual parts, but the everyday moments too:

Romans 12:1 says, “So here’s what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday, ordinary life… and place it before God as an offering” (MSG).

This kind of surrender isn’t a one-time decision; it’s a daily habit. A midyear reset i
