My intro
When God called Ezekiel, He told him to eat the scroll — to let the Word become part of him before he could speak it. Even though the people wouldn't listen, God made his face strong like flint and His hand was strong upon him. Sometimes, obedience feels bitter, but the Spirit that lifted Ezekiel will strengthen us too. Let His Word fill you, and speak what He gives — whether they listen or not.
The Call of Ezekiel”, Mercy takes us into Ezekiel chapter 2, where the prophet is called and strengthened by the Spirit of God. From the moment Ezekiel hears the words, “Son of man, stand on your feet,” we see how God empowers an ordinary man to carry an extraordinary message.
Ezekiel's vision rises higher — from the living creatures to the wheels full of eyes, and finally to the throne of God surrounded by fire and a rainbow of mercy. A reminder that God's throne still moves, His eyes still see, and His glory still reigns — even in our exile.
Even in exile, Ezekiel saw the glory of God — fire, light, and living beings moving by the Spirit. A reminder that God's presence isn't bound by place; His glory can appear even in our lowest moments.
After His resurrection, Jesus appears among His fearful disciples, speaking peace and revealing the truth of the Scriptures. He opens their understanding, reminds them of the mission ahead, and promises the power of the Holy Spirit. Then, leading them gently from Jerusalem to Bethany, He lifts His hands in blessing and ascends to heaven in glory.
Two disciples walked the road to Emmaus, confused and heartbroken — and Jesus Himself came alongside them. They didn't know it was Him, yet He listened, taught, and rekindled their faith. When He broke the bread, their eyes were opened.
In this episode, we journey through Luke 24:1–12 — the morning when sorrow turned to joy and death was defeated forever. The women at the tomb came seeking the Lord but found something greater — an empty grave and the message of life: “He is not here; He is risen!”
"In this episode, we reflect on the final moments of Jesus on the cross — the darkness over the land, the torn temple veil, and His death. We witness the devotion of the women who faithfully watched from a distance, and Joseph of Arimathea's courageous act of burial. Join us as we explore the meaning of these events, the faithfulness honored by God, and the hope we have in Jesus' sacrifice."
In Luke 23:26–43, Jesus walks the road to Calvary — bruised, yet full of mercy. Along the way, He comforts the weeping women, prays for His enemies, and offers eternal life to a dying thief. Even on the cross, His grace shines brightest. This message reminds us that salvation is not earned but received by faith — the same promise Jesus gave that day: “Today you will be with Me in paradise.”
In Luke 23:1–23, Jesus stands before Pilate and Herod — falsely accused, mocked, and rejected. Though both rulers find Him innocent, the crowd demands His crucifixion and chooses Barabbas instead. Through this painful injustice, God's perfect plan of salvation unfolds. The innocent Son of God takes the place of the guilty — so we could be forgiven and free.
In the quiet night at the Mount of Olives, Jesus faces His greatest trial — not the cross yet, but the surrender before it. As He prays in agony, His disciples sleep, His betrayer approaches, and darkness seems to reign. Yet in that darkness, the light of obedience and mercy shines brighter than ever.
In this episode, we walk through Luke 22:1–19, where Jesus shares His final meal before the cross.Even as betrayal and suffering drew near, His heart was filled with love and mercy.Here, He gave new meaning to the Passover — offering His body and blood for our salvation.
A reflection on Luke 21:20–38 — the prophecy of the Tribulation, cosmic signs, and Jesus' urgent warning in verses 34–36 about hearts distracted by the world. A call to stay awake and prayerful as His return draws near.
From Luke 21:1–19 — Jesus speaks about the widow's faith, the fall of the temple, and the coming signs before His return. This episode calls believers to stay grounded and steadfast, even when the world begins to shake.
In Luke 20:41–47, Jesus reveals the true identity of the Messiah and warns about religious leaders who misuse their authority. He challenges the idea that status and appearances define leadership, and calls out hypocrisy—those who seek honor, exploit the vulnerable, and pray for show. This episode explores timeless lessons for discerning true leadership, genuine faith, and the responsibility that comes with influence.
In Luke 20:20–26, spies try to trap Jesus with a question about paying taxes to Caesar. His response carries a timeless truth: earthly duties have their place, but our ultimate allegiance belongs to God. The coin may bear Caesar's image, but our lives bear the image of God
In Luke 20:9–19, Jesus tells the parable of the wicked tenants — a story that exposes the rejection of God's prophets and ultimately His Son. He warns that the stone rejected by the builders has become the cornerstone: those who stumble over Him will be broken, and those on whom He falls will be crushed. The religious leaders understood the parable was about them, but instead of repenting, they hardened their hearts. This episode reminds us that understanding the truth is not enough — we must surrender to Christ, the only true foundation.
In Luke 20:1–8, the religious leaders question Jesus' authority, but His wise response exposes their hypocrisy and fear of man. Even today, many avoid answering the real question: Who is Jesus to you? This episode calls us to acknowledge His authority and submit to His Lordship before it's too late.
In this episode, we look at Luke 19:45–48, where Jesus cleanses the Temple. Discover how this powerful act is also a picture of what He wants to do in us today—driving out distractions, sins, and pride, so that our lives can become a true house of prayer and a dwelling place of His Spirit.
In Luke 19:28–44, Jesus enters Jerusalem as King, but the crowd welcomes Him for the wrong reasons—seeking political freedom instead of spiritual salvation. This message reminds us that Jesus sees beyond outward praise to the heart, calling us to lay down our cloaks in surrender, lift our palms in true worship, and welcome Him as the true King of our lives.
In today's devotion, we explore the parable of the minas in Luke 19 and the parable of the talents in Matthew 25. Though similar, they carry two powerful truths: every believer has a shared responsibility with the Gospel, and each believer has unique gifts entrusted to them. The question is—are we faithful with both?
Today's message based on Luke 19:1–10 explores why Jesus called Zacchaeus a “son of Abraham”. This passage reminds us that being God's child is about faith, repentance, and obedience—not just heritage or status.

In Luke 17:20–37, Jesus reveals two truths about the Kingdom of God—first, that it is already within us through faith, and second, that one day it will be revealed suddenly, like lightning across the sky. In this episode, we look at the warnings of Noah's days, the example of Lot's wife, and the words ‘one shall be taken, the other left.' Are we living ready for that moment? Join me as we prepare our hearts for the coming of the Lord. Maranatha!
In Luke 17:11–17, Jesus heals ten lepers, but only one—a Samaritan—returns to give thanks. This episode reflects on the power of gratitude, the mercy of God that reaches both Jews and Gentiles, and the call for us to live daily with thankful hearts that glorify Him.
In this episode, we dive into Jesus' sobering story of the rich man and Lazarus from Luke 16:19–31. A tale of earthly riches, eternal reversal, and the great chasm that no one can cross. What does this mean for us today? How does it point to the coming Rapture and the final separation between those taken and those left behind? Join me as we uncover the warning, the hope, and the call to be ready before it's too late. Maranatha!
In Luke 16:14–18, Jesus exposed the Pharisees for their love of money and their outward show of righteousness.

In this episode, discover how these verses connect to the rapture and why pressing into the kingdom today is the only way to be ready when the trumpet sounds.
Many believers wonder: If I accepted Jesus once, am I guaranteed to be taken in the Rapture?

Discover the difference between outward profession and true new birth — and the assurance that those sealed by the Spirit are ready for the trumpet call.
In this episode, we explore Jesus' powerful teaching from Luke 17:1–10. He warns us to guard our influence, calls us to forgive without limits, reminds us that even small faith in a great God can do the impossible, and teaches us to serve with humility. A timely message for today's world—where offenses are many, faith is tested, and pride often overshadows true service.
In Luke 16:1–13, Jesus tells the story of a shrewd steward who planned ahead for his future. While his actions were dishonest, his foresight is praised. Jesus turns this into a powerful lesson: use temporary riches wisely for eternal purposes. In this episode, we explore what it means to be faithful in little things, how money tests our hearts, and why no one can serve both God and mammon.
Luke 15 holds three parables—the lost sheep, the lost coin, and the lost son. Each reveals the heart of God toward the sinner: He seeks, He finds, and He rejoices. In this message, we reflect on how heaven celebrates when even one soul turns back to God.
In Luke 14:26–35, Jesus calls His disciples to a love that puts Him above family, possessions, and even life itself. He speaks of carrying the cross, counting the cost, and staying salty for God's kingdom. In this episode, we explore what it means to truly follow Christ, with modern-day examples of choosing Him over family pressure, career gain, or personal dreams. The cost is great, but the reward—Christ Himself—is greater.

What does this mean for the church today? And how can we avoid repeating the same mistakes?
Luke 13:22–30 reminds us that salvation is not about religion or heritage, but about entering through the narrow door — Jesus Himself. The door is open now; let us walk in before it closes.
In this episode, we explore how Jesus connects the healing of a bent woman with the parables of the mustard seed and the yeast. The kingdom of God may start small and hidden, but it grows into something vast and life-transforming. Learn how God's quiet work of freedom and restoration spreads until it touches the whole world.
“In this episode, we dive into Luke 13:10–17, where Jesus meets a woman who had been bent over for eighteen long years. With just a word and a touch, He sets her free from her infirmity, and she rises to glorify God. But while the crowd rejoices, the synagogue ruler objects—choosing rules over compassion.This passage reminds us that Jesus not only heals but restores our dignity and identity. The Sabbath is revealed as a day of freedom, not restriction; of release, not burden. Join me as we reflect on what it truly means to be set free in Christ and to live a life that glorifies God.”
In Luke 13:1–9, Jesus reminds us through two real-life tragedies and the parable of the barren fig tree that life is uncertain and repentance cannot be delayed. Death can come suddenly—through violence, accident, or disaster—not because people are worse sinners, but as a warning for all to turn back to God. Like the gardener pleading for the fig tree, Jesus gives us extra time to repent and bear fruit. But God's patience is not endless. The call is urgent: repent today and live a fruitful life for Him.
Jesus warned the crowds—they could predict the weather but failed to see the signs of God's kingdom. In this episode, we learn how to read the times we live in and why it's urgent to settle matters with God before judgment comes. A call to repent, reconcile, and be ready.
In Luke 12:49–53, Jesus speaks of bringing fire, undergoing a baptism of suffering, and the division His message would cause—even within families.

A reminder that trials are not signs of abandonment, but the refining work of God shaping us to stand firm in Christ.
A reflection on Luke 12:35–48. Jesus calls His disciples to keep their lamps burning, to remain watchful even through the long night watches, and to live as faithful stewards until His return. Readiness is not passive waiting but active service, and to whom much is given, much will be required.

From the ravens and the lilies to the tender words, “Do not be afraid, little flock,” we are reminded that God delights to provide for our needs and has already given us His kingdom.
A teaching from Luke 12:13–21, where Jesus warns against greed through the parable of the rich fool, reminding us that true life is found in being rich toward God, not in possessions.
In Luke 12:8–12, Jesus calls us to boldly confess Him before people, warns us against rejecting the Holy Spirit, and promises that the Spirit Himself will give us words when we face opposition.

This episode is a reminder to stand firm for Jesus, trust the Spirit's leading, and live unashamed of the gospel.
From Luke 12:4–7, Jesus teaches us not to fear people who can only touch the body, but to fear God who holds eternity in His hands.
