God’s Word For Today

When God gives a promise, do we respond with faith—or with doubt like Zechariah?In this episode, we explore how even a faithful priest struggled to believe the impossible, and how God turned his silence into a powerful testimony of grace.Let this passage remind us that God's Word will be fulfilled in His time, even when we cannot yet see how.

Luke 1:15–17 (ESV)15 for he will be great before the Lord. And he must not drink wine or strong drink, and he will be filled with the Holy Spirit, even from his mother's womb.16 And he will turn many of the children of Israel to the Lord their God,17 and he will go before him in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just, to make ready for the Lord a people prepared.After years of praying and waiting, Zechariah and Elizabeth were blessed with a son — John. He was chosen by God to prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah, Jesus Christ. Even before his birth, John was filled with the Holy Spirit, showing that God had set him apart for a special purpose.His life reminds us that true greatness is not measured by human success but by faithfulness and obedience to God's calling. Like John, may we also live lives that prepare others to know and follow Christ.

Luke 1:5–14 (ESV)5 In the days of Herod, king of Judea, there was a priest named Zechariah, of the division of Abijah. And he had a wife from the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elizabeth.6 And they were both righteous before God, walking blamelessly in all the commandments and statutes of the Lord.7 But they had no child, because Elizabeth was barren, and both were advanced in years.8 Now while he was serving as priest before God when his division was on duty,9 according to the custom of the priesthood, he was chosen by lot to enter the temple of the Lord and burn incense.10 And the whole multitude of the people were praying outside at the hour of incense.11 And there appeared to him an angel of the Lord standing on the right side of the altar of incense.12 And Zechariah was troubled when he saw him, and fear fell upon him.13 But the angel said to him, “Do not be afraid, Zechariah, for your prayer has been heard, and your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you shall call his name John.”14 “And you will have joy and gladness, and many will rejoice at his birth.”In this passage, Pastor Nazario Sinon reflects on Zechariah and Elizabeth — two faithful servants who waited long for God's answer. Though they were righteous and obedient, they remained childless for years. But in God's time, their prayer was finally heard.Through this story, we are reminded that God's delays are never denials. He hears every sincere prayer, even when the answer seems late. His timing is perfect, His promises sure, and His purpose greater than we imagine.If today's message encouraged you to keep trusting in God's timing, follow and rate God's Word for Todayon Spotify!

Luke 1:1–4 (ESV)1 Inasmuch as many have undertaken to compile a narrative of the things that have been accomplished among us,2 just as those who from the beginning were eyewitnesses and ministers of the word have delivered them to us,3 it seemed good to me also, having followed all things closely for some time past, to write an orderly account for you, most excellent Theophilus,4 that you may have certainty concerning the things you have been taught.In this episode, Pastor Nazario Sinon introduces the Gospel of Luke — the most detailed and historically grounded of the four Gospels.Luke, a physician and Gentile follower of Christ, carefully compiled eyewitness testimonies to give us a reliable, Spirit-inspired record of Jesus' life and ministry.

Proverbs 31:12–31 (ESV)12 She does him good, and not harm, all the days of her life.13 She seeks wool and flax, and works with willing hands.14 She is like the ships of the merchant; she brings her food from afar.15 She rises while it is yet night and provides food for her household and portions for her maidens.16 She considers a field and buys it; with the fruit of her hands she plants a vineyard.17 She dresses herself with strength and makes her arms strong.18 She perceives that her merchandise is profitable. Her lamp does not go out at night.19 She puts her hands to the distaff, and her hands hold the spindle.20 She opens her hand to the poor and reaches out her hands to the needy.21 She is not afraid of snow for her household, for all her household are clothed in scarlet.22 She makes bed coverings for herself; her clothing is fine linen and purple.23 Her husband is known in the gates when he sits among the elders of the land.24 She makes linen garments and sells them; she delivers sashes to the merchant.25 Strength and dignity are her clothing, and she laughs at the time to come.26 She opens her mouth with wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue.27 She looks well to the ways of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness.28 Her children rise up and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her:29 “Many women have done excellently, but you surpass them all.”30 Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain, but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised.31 Give her of the fruit of her hands, and let her works praise her in the gates.In this episode, Pastor Nazario Sinon concludes the study on Proverbs 31 — celebrating the character, strength, and faith of a woman who fears the Lord.Her beauty shines not from outward appearance but from a heart that honors God through diligence, kindness, and reverence.

Proverbs 30:29–31 paints a picture of confidence, order, and dignity — seen in a lion, a rooster, a goat, and a king.Pastor Nazario Sinon unpacks what it means to walk with spiritual strength and composure. True greatness isn't loud or boastful; it's calm, steady, and rooted in the Lord's authority.The lion roars with courage, the rooster struts with confidence, the goat leads with purpose, and the king walks with assurance because his people stand with him. So should we, as followers of Christ, carry ourselves with faith, humility, and quiet confidence in God's presence.29 Three things are stately in their tread;four are stately in their stride:30 the lion, which is mightiest among beastsand does not turn back before any;31 the strutting rooster, the he-goat,and a king whose army is with him.-Proverbs 30:29-31 ESV
