Morning Devotions, Meditations, Spiritual Direction, and Motivating Insights with your host Pastor Eddie B. Woodard. Praying a Blessing over God’s People

Psalm 55:22 “Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.” There are moments in life when the weight of things becomes more than we can carry. Responsibilities pile up. Worries seem to haunt in the back of our minds. Some Decisions linger longer than we expected. And before long, we find ourselves carrying burdens that God never intended for us to hold alone. The Psalmist gives us a simple invitation: “Cast thy burden upon the LORD.” The word cast means to throw or release something from your hands. It suggests a deliberate act so it's not just wishing a burden away, but actually handing it over to God. Intro Music By: Mike Outland

Trusting In God's Plan Psalm 37:5 “Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.” As the week comes to a close, it's a good time to take inventory of all we have come through this week. We think about the prayers we prayed, the struggles we faced, the people we tried to help, and the moments when we simply tried to walk faithfully with the Lord. But the beauty of the Christian life is that it was never meant to make it through in our strength. God simply asks us to commit our way to Him. Intro Music By: Mike Outland

When Christ gave up the ghost on the cross. It is written that the veil in the temple tore from the top to the bottom. And this was a powerful symbol that we now have accessed directly to God. But we must understand that this morning. That that access only comes through his son Jesus Christ. God's will, his direction, his wisdom, his power, and so much more. It's all available to everyone who approaches him, through faith, in his son Jesus.

A Life That Matters 1 Thessalonians 4:11-12 “And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you; That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing.” In a world that constantly measures success by comparison, it can be easy to feel like we are failing to meet the expectations of others. Someone always seems to have more, accomplish more, or be recognized more. But the Bible reminds us that a life that truly matters is not built on comparison, it is built on contentment and faithfulness. Intro Music By: Mike Outland

The Freedom of Forgiveness Scripture Colossians 3:12-13 12 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; 13 Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye. Forgiveness is one of the most powerful gifts God has given to us. Yet for many people, it is also one of the hardest things to truly embrace and understand. We often understand forgiveness as a command, but we sometimes miss the beautiful freedom that comes when forgiveness is received, accepted, and then shared. Intro Music By: Mike Outland

Rebuilding What Is Broken Nehemiah 2:17 – “Then said I unto them, Ye see the distress that we are in, how Jerusalem lieth waste, and the gates thereof are burned with fire: come, and let us build up the wall of Jerusalem, that we be no more a reproach.” The Picture of This Broken Wall When Nehemiah looked upon the city of Jerusalem, he saw ruins where strength used to stand. The walls were down, the gates were burned, and the people were living in shame. The city without walls was vulnerable to every enemy, it was exposed to danger, and unable to stand with any dignity. But, Nehemiah's words were not just about stones and mortar, they were about restoring identity, honor, and hope to God's people. Music By: Mike Outland

Proverbs 27:17 “Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend.” There is something powerful about the way God designed relationships. None of us were meant to walk this journey alone. Just as iron tools were sharpened in Bible times by rubbing them against another piece of iron, our lives are strengthened, refined, and sharpened through the influence of others. Iron sharpening iron is not always a quiet or effortless process. When metal meets metal, there is friction. Sparks may fly. But the purpose is not harm—it is improvement. The result is a sharper, stronger instrument. In the same way, God often uses faithful friends, mentors, and fellow believers to shape us into better people. Intro Music By: Mike Outland

Strength In The Stillness Isaiah 30:15 “For thus saith the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel; In returning and rest shall ye be saved; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength: and ye would not.” Life has a way of filling every moment with noise. Responsibilities, worries, schedules, can make us feel like we are always running toward the next thing. Even when we slow down physically, our minds can still be racing with concerns about tomorrow. Yet God often reminds us of something very different from the pace of the world. He reminds us that real strength is found in stillness. Intro Music By: Mike Outland

Growing In The New Life Colossians 2:6–7 “As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.” Spring reminds us that life has returned. The buds appear on the trees, the grass turns green, and flowers begin to bloom again. It is one of the most beautiful reminders in creation that God is a God of new beginnings. But spring also teaches us something else. New life is only the beginning. Growth must follow. Intro Music By: Mike Outland

The Promise of Spring 2 Corinthians 5:17 “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.” Every year, spring quietly reminds us of one of God's most beautiful promises—the promise of new life. All through the winter months the trees stand bare, the ground seems lifeless, and the cold winds make everything feel still and dormant. It can almost appear as if life has disappeared. But dormant does not mean things are dead. Beneath the surface, something is happening that our eyes cannot see. Life is preparing to return. Intro Music By: Eddie B. Woodard

I SHALL NOT BE AFRAID Psalm 27:1 “The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?” We often face situations we do not fully understand, times where the future seems unclear, and there are circumstances that try to stir up fear in our hearts. In those moments, David's words here in Psalm 27 remind us of a truth: and that is that our confidence is not found in circumstances, it's found in the Lord Himself. Intro Music By: Mike Outland

THE WAY GOD PROVIDES You've probably heard the phrase, “The Lord will provide.” It's often said with hopeful assurance in moments of uncertainty—when the bills are piling up, when the job offer hasn't come, when the path ahead looks foggy at best. But what does it truly mean when we say, “God will provide”? And how can we trust in that promise when the evidence around us seems scarce? Philippians 4:19 is one of the most comforting verses in Scripture: “But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.”

He's Been There All Along There are often places in our lives that mean more than they seem at the time. For me, it's an old cedar tree nestled down in the rocks behind our home. It's stood there longer than I have been alive. Its roots are wrapped tight around the rocky hillside. When I was younger, I would sit against that tree and just talk. I talked about dreams. I talked about fears. I talked about things I didn't even understand yet. At the time, I thought I was just finding a quiet place to think, write, and dream. But now I know better. It was never just me and the old tree, God was always there with me. Jacob had a moment like that in Scripture. After a long journey, he laid his head down to sleep and dreamed of a ladder reaching into Heaven. When he woke up, he said: Genesis 28:16 “And Jacob awaked out of his sleep, and he said, Surely the Lord is in this place; and I knew it not.” Think about that; “Surely the Lord is in this place… and I knew it not.” How many times could we say the same thing? Intro Music By: Mike Outland

Stronger Than Before James 1:2–4 “My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.” There is a different kind of strength that only comes after a struggle. Not the kind of strength that boasts or draws attention, but the quiet kind. The kind that has been tested, stretched, and refined and pressurized. James tells us to “count it all joy” when we face various trials. Intro Music By: Mike Outland

This Is The Life Psalm 90:14 “O satisfy us early with thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.” There is something sacred about a quiet porch in the early morning. I realize that everyone may not have a front porch, but it is a very scared place for my wife and I. Before the noise begins. Before responsibilities start to press in. Before the world starts demanding my attention. It is in those gentle moments — where the cool morning meets the day, that the heart often hears the clearest whispers of God.

After The Storm Mark 4:39–40 “And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm. And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?” There is something about the silence after a storm. A time to exhale and observe what has happened. One moment the wind is howling or the waves are crashing. The next moment everything is calm. In Mark chapter four, Jesus stepped into the chaos and spoke three simple words: “Peace, be still.” Immediately the storm ceased. But then He asked a question that reaches beyond the wind and into the heart or our issues: “Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?” It seems the storm had stopped, but the lessons had just begun. Intro Music By: Mike Outland

Steady In The Storm This time of the year, people begin to think about and talk about “The Storm Season”. Just like storms in our area are very unpredictable, the storms of our lives can be as well. Isaiah gives us a promise that feels almost impossible in turbulent times: perfect peace. Not partial peace. Not temporary relief. Perfect peace. Isaiah 26:3 “Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.” Storms have a way of revealing what we are anchored to. Intro Music By: Eddie B. Woodard

Ready For What's Coming Ecclesiastes 3:1 “To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.” We are all aware that Life moves in seasons. Some are bright and full of promise. Others feel like long winters where nothing seems to grow. But Scripture reminds us that every season carries a purpose. Nothing is random in the Hands of God. Intro Music By: Mike Outland

Unexpected Favor Psalm 106:46 “He made them also to be pitied of all those that carried them captives.” There are moments in life when we feel like we have being held captive to circumstances we did not choose. Doors close without explanation and Opportunities seem to fade for no apparent reason . We may even wonder if we have somehow stepped outside of God's will. But Psalm 106:46 gives us a powerful and comforting reminder that even in the midst of the captive mindset, God can cause favor to rise up in unexpected places. Intro Music By: Mike Outland

The Potter Knows Jeremiah 18:2-4 2 Arise, and go down to the potter's house, and there I will cause thee to hear my words. 3 Then I went down to the potter's house, and, behold, he wrought a work on the wheels. 4 And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter: so he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to make it. It's so important to know that our lives are not random moments spinning without a purpose. These verses remind us that God is the Potter and we are the clay, formed by His hands with intention, vision and purpose. The message behind “The Potter Knows” is to remind us that even when life feels uncertain, pressured, or even painful, the One who is shaping us understands the final design. Intro Music By: Mike Outland SONG: “THE POTTER KNOWS” By: Eddie B. Woodard

Keep Moving Forward Philippians 3:13–14 13 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, 14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. There is something powerful and important about the word press. It implies resistance and It suggests something that takes effort. It seems to acknowledge that moving forward is not always easy. Yet Paul said, “This one thing I do.” Not ten things, Not some kind of divided focus. One thing keeps him moving forward, and that is the constant mark set before him in Jesus. Intro Music By: Eddie B. Woodard

Getting To The Root Matthew 7:17-18 17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every fruit starts in the root. If You walk into an orchard and see that the apples are all bad, you don't blame the apples, You look at the tree. The fruit simply reveals what is really going on beneath the surface. Yet in our spiritual lives, we often spend years trying to deal with the fruit of our behavior, without ever examining the root system that is causing the behavior. Intro Music By: Mike Outland

Acceptance by God is settled through Christ. It is not fragile. It does not rise and fall with opinions or circumstances. It is rooted in a relationship through the Blood of Jesus Christ. That truth alone can steady your heart that perhaps has grown tired from trying to always measure up to others expectations. Many believers quietly struggle with this. We say we trust God, yet we still measure ourselves by the reactions of others. Their praise, their silence, their agreement, their disapproval. Intro Music By: Mike Outland

Your Response Matters James 1:19 — “Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:” Each Sunday morning some of us gather for prayer before the days Worship service begins. In those moments we often ask the Lord for something simple but very powerful: that He would help us see with Spiritual eyesight, hear with Spiritual ears tuned toward Truth, and respond wisely to whatever the day brings. That prayer lines us up with the instruction in James which is to be swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to wrath. Intro Music By: Mike Outland

Learning To Fly Learning to fly is not about trying to escape life, it is about rising above the challenges of life. Long before a bird ever leaves the nest, it learns to trust the strength it was given and the air that will carry it once it Learns to fly. In much the same way, our walk with God is a daily lesson in trust. Not once. Not occasionally. But moment by moment. Intro Music By: Mike Outland Song: “LEARNING TO FLY” written and composed by: Eddie B. Woodard

God's Plan For You – Deliverance Our key verse in this week has been: 1 Peter 5:8 — “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.” This reveals the enemy's intentions, but the very next verse reveals the believer's response and God's direction. 1 Peter 5:9 — “Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.” What we see is God never points out a threat without also giving us a strategy. His plan for us is never defeat, it's deliverance. Intro Music By: Mike Outland

The Enemy's Plan For You – Pt. 4: Destruction Scripture warns us that the enemy never stops at simple doubt or discouragement. His path, if left unchecked, always moves toward destruction. Jesus made this plain in John 10:10 10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. That is not just some poetic type saying, it is a spiritual reality. The enemy's goal is not merely to make life difficult; it is to tear down what God is building. The destruction I am speaking of has nothing to do with your Salvation, which is secure in Christ, but refers to the constant attempt to destroy your purpose, your reputation, and your ability to serve the Lord. Intro Music By: Eddie B. Woodard

The Enemy's Plan For You – PT. 3: Depression In this series we've looked at how the enemy often works in stages, first doubt, which if left unchecked will lead to discouragement. If those seeds are left unattended, they can grow heavier, sometimes settling into what the Bible refers to as Spiritual heaviness or becoming “Dismayed”, or to become depressed. Our verse for this series remains: 1 Peter 5:8 — “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.” But in the context of this subject, God encourages Joshua to guard against becoming depressed or dismayed; Joshua 1:9 9 Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest. Intro Music By: Mike Outland

The Enemy's Plan For You – Part 2: Discouragement 1 Peter 5:8 — “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.” Discouragement is often the second step in the enemy's plan against us. As we said yesterday, first comes doubt, that quiet whisper that questions what God has said. Then comes discouragement, a heavy feeling that makes you question whether it's even worth it to keep going. Intro Music By: Eddie B. Woodard

The Enemy's Plan For You — Part 1: Doubt 1 Peter 5:8 “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:” It is important for us to know that The enemy rarely begins with open attack. He begins with a question. A whisper. A seed of uncertainty. His first step is not destruction — it is doubt. Intro Music By: Mike Outland

HOW YOU SEE IT 2 Corinthians 4:17-18 17 For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; 18 While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal. Every day arrives with a mixture of moments. Some are very encouraging. Others are inconvenient, frustrating, or even heavy. Most of the time, Before noon, most of us will have already been given multiple opportunities to choose what we focus on. That choice quietly shapes the tone and direction of the whole day. Intro Music By: Mike Outland Song: “HOW YOU SEE IT” written and composed by: Eddie B. Woodard

What Will Remain John 15:16 (KJV) “Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.” It is humbling to know that we are chosen on purpose for a purpose. Jesus tells His followers that their calling is not accidental, not random, and not temporary. It is intentional in order to be fruitful, and not just fruitful for the moment, but fruitful in a way that remains. Intro Music By: Mike Outland Song: “Make Memories” written and composed by: Eddie B. Woodard

FEELING OVERWHELMED Matthew 6:33 Our Focus should not be on the Problem but on the Provider. When life feels overwhelming and the weight of the world presses hard on your shoulders, Matthew 6:33 offers a calming reminder: “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” This verse invites us to shift our focus from the chaos around us to the God who holds everything together. Instead of letting anxiety rule the moment, Jesus teaches us to realign our priorities—His presence first, His peace first, His purpose first.

Painful Positions Genesis 50:19–21 19 And Joseph said unto them, Fear not: for am I in the place of God? 20 But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive. 21 Now therefore fear ye not: I will nourish you, and your little ones. And he comforted them, and spake kindly unto them. There are seasons in life when we find ourselves standing in a place we never would have chosen. A painful position. A place that seems unfair, unwanted, and even undeserving. A setback that you just don't understand. In those moments, it's easy to believe something is wrong in your walk with God. But Scripture shows us again and again that some of God's greatest work is done through the positions we would often have tried to avoid. Intro Music By: Mike Outland

The Key To Self Control Galatians 5:22–23 “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.” There are moments in all our lives when the biggest battles we fight are not with other people, but within ourselves. Maybe it's a quick reaction, or a sharp word. It could be an impulsive decision made too fast without prayer or wise counsel. Most of our regrets don't come from what we've carefully thought through, they come from what we rushed into. That is why two of the fruit mention here in these verses are so powerful when they work together: longsuffering and temperance. Intro Music By: Mike Outland

WHERE ARE YOU GOING Life is always moving forward, and whether we realize it or not, we are constantly making choices that shape our direction. Along the way, we are met with options. Some are meant to help us. Others are placed in our path to slow us down, distract us, or pull us away from where God is leading. John 16:12-13 12 I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. 13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. Intro Music By: Mike Outland

WHO ARE YOU There's a question that quietly follows us through life, whether we realize it or not: Who are you? Not just the name you answer to, or the roles you fill, but the person you've become along the way. The truth is, none of us arrive at who we are on our own. We are shaped—slowly and steadily—by people, moments, and environments that leave their fingerprints on our hearts. Intro Music By: Eddie B. Woodard

Miracles To Me When we hear the word miracle, our minds often think about the extraordinary, the seas parting, the blind seeing, the impossible suddenly becoming possible. And God still does those things. But as I've walked with Him over the years, I've come to realize that many of His greatest miracles don't make the headlines or shake the ground, They simply show up quietly in the ordinary moments of everyday life. Intro Music By: Mike Outland Song: “Miracles To Me” Written and Composed By: Eddie B. Woodard Miracles To Me was written because I believe that we are all miracles in our own way, but also everything around us is proof that God is still doing miraculous things today.

YOUR TRUE IDENTITY Romans 8:16–18 “The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together. For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.” There's something deeply reassuring about belonging to God. We all want to know where we come from, where we're going, and who we truly are. In Romans 8, Paul gives us one of the most powerful reminders of our spiritual identity and our future: we are not just God's creation, we are His children. Intro Music By: Mike Outland

DOES IT FEEL IMPOSSIBLE The beauty of faith is not that it removes the difficulty, but that it introduces us to the possibility of the impossibile. The same God who split the Red Sea, raised Lazarus from the dead, and turned water into wine hasn't changed. His power hasn't weakened with time. The same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead now lives in us. Romans 8:11 11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. Intro Music By: Mike Outland Song: “Impossible” written and composed by : Eddie B. Woodard

ARE YOU PREPARED We seem to panic and prepare for storms or other situations of life, but are you prepared to meet the Lord? Mark 13:31-33 31 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away. 32 But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father. 33 Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is. Intro Music By: Mike Outland

HE'S WAITING FOR YOUR CALL Jeremiah 29:12–13 “Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you. And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.” I love how these verses show how personal God makes the relationship. He doesn't begin with commands or conditions, He begins with a simple conversation. “Then shall ye call upon me…” God invites us to start by simply calling His name. Not with perfect words or polished prayers…. Just a call from your heart. Intro Music By: Mike Outland

JUST STAY ON THE PATH Psalm 119:105 “Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.” This is a verse that speaks tome because it speaks of real life, not the life where everything is planned out perfectly, but the life where we're often taking one step at a time, and many times unsure of what's coming next. God's Word is described as both a lamp and a light, and those two words carry slightly different meanings that matter more than we sometimes realize. Intro Music By: Mike Outland

HE'S STILL DOING THAT FOR ME Hebrews 13:8 — “Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.” This morning in sour time with the Lord, He reminds us that not everything changes. Life certainly does, Seasons come and go. People grow up, drift away, life brings Joy one day, and disappointment the next. Even we change—our perspectives, our confidence, and at times our faith even has different levels. But Hebrews 13:8 reminds us of a truth: Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

Well Done For Right Now Matthew 25:21 21 His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. When we hear Matthew 25:21, our minds often go straight to heaven. We picture the end of life, standing before the Lord, and hearing those words we all long to hear: “Well done.” And one day, that will be a glorious and very real moment. But this verse isn't only about the end of the journey. It's also about the middle of it. It's about right now. Intro Music By: Mike Outland

THE PATH GOD PLANNED FOR YOU Psalm 16:11 “Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.” Spiritual freedom is not found in escaping responsibility, avoiding pain, or finally getting our way. True freedom is found when God shows us the path of life. Not a shortcut. Not a detour. But a path that's steady, intentional, and guided by His hand. Intro Music By: Eddie B. Woodard

The Boldness We Need Boldness is often misunderstood. In our world, boldness is usually associated with being loud, forceful, or confident in oneself. But biblical boldness is something altogether different. True boldness does not rise from ego or self-assurance, it flows from the quiet confidence that God is with us. Scripture reminds us this morning in Psalm 27:1, “The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?” . Boldness begins when fear no longer has the final word in our situations. Not because we are strong, but because our Gos is, and He is always with us. Intro Music By: Mike Outland

UNLESS GOD GOES WITH ME Exodus 33:15 reminds us that true direction, peace, and purpose are found only in God's presence. When Moses declared, “If thy presence go not with me, carry us not up hence,” he acknowledged a powerful truth: progress without God is empty. This verse speaks to every believer who desires to walk in obedience rather than self-reliance. It teaches that success, movement, and even good intentions mean nothing if God is not leading the way. Exodus 33:15 calls us to pause, seek God's presence, and refuse to move forward unless He goes with us. In a world driven by speed and ambition, this scripture anchors the heart in surrender, trust, and spiritual dependence—choosing God's presence over every opportunity, plan, or promise. Intro Music By: Mike Outland

A SPIRIT GOD NEVER GIVES YOU 2 Timothy 1:7 “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” One of the most misunderstood things in the Christian life for many at least, is Spiritual Warfare. Here we see that a spirit is being offered, but it is not from God. That is the entire concept of Spiritual Warfare. Daily we are offered certain things that will dictate the direction of our day. Here we see it is the spirit of fear. Intro Music By: Mike Outland
