Our Morning Prayer of Surrender Each new day begins best when we place our hearts, our hopes, and our plans into the hands of the Lord. “Our Morning Prayer of Surrender” is a reminder that life works better when we stop trying to control everything and simply trust God. Laying down worries, burdens, and expectations, and inviting the Holy Spirit to guide each step of the day.

MORE THAN THE LILIES Reflecting on Matthew 6:28-29, this devotion encourages us to release worry, trust God's provision, and rest in the assurance that we are valued far beyond anything in creation. Through calm faith, simple surrender, and quiet confidence, we discover that God knows our needs, sees our struggles, and faithfully provides in His perfect time.

JUST BE FAITHFUL Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.” —1 Corinthians 4:2 There's a simple truth tucked into this small verse that can reshape the way we view our lives: God isn't looking for flashy. He's looking for faithful. When Paul says, “It is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful,” he's reminding us that we are stewards of all that God has given us—our time, our talents, our voices, our influence, our opportunities. None of it is truly ours. It's all on loan from Heaven, and one day, we'll give an account for what we did with what we were given.

This song reminds us that what is impossible for us is never impossible for Him, and that surrender is often the doorway to miracles. It's a simple, honest declaration that even when we can't see the way forward, God already has one prepared. Song: “Impossible” written and composed By: Eddie B. Woodard.

There are moments when life feels finished—when the door seems shut, the dream looks broken, or the road ahead fades into uncertainty. But what looks like the end to us is often where God is still at work. Scripture reminds us that “He which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ” (Philippians 1:6, KJV). God is not bound by our timelines, our failures, or our fears. He writes beyond the last chapter we think we see.

SONG: THEY GROW UP FAST Written By: Eddie B. Woodard

Mat 14:28 And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water. Mat 14:29 And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus. Jesus said one word: Come. And Peter stepped out of the boat and walked on water. This wasn't a calm sea. The wind was still roaring, the waves were still high. But Peter wasn't focused on the storm—he was focused on the Savior. Music Compiled By: Mike Outland

Psalms 46:4 There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High. There is a river. It's not just any river, it's the river of God. Psalm 46:4 tells us, “There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High.” This is no ordinary body of water. It's the very flow of life that comes from the heart of God Himself. It's a picture of grace, joy, peace, and provision, all flowing freely from the Source, who is our loving Father.

THIS IS THE LIFE PODCAST Habakkuk 2:3 “For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.” Waiting can feel like the hardest part of our faith. There's something about a prolonged season of “not yet” that tests our hearts in ways we don't realize. But if you've been holding onto a promise, a dream, or a word from the Lord, I want to encourage you today: the wait is almost over. Music Composed By: Mike Outland

What Are You Looking For? John 1:38-39 “Then Jesus turned, and saw them following, and saith unto them, What seek ye? They said unto him, Rabbi, (which is to say, being interpreted, Master,) where dwellest thou? He saith unto them, Come and see. They came and saw where he dwelt, and abode with him that day…” There's something beautiful about a simple question that goes deeper than it first appears. When Jesus turned and saw two men following Him, He didn't ask for their names. He didn't inquire about their backgrounds or even their motives. He asked a question that still echoes in every soul that reaches out to Him: “What seek ye?” What are you looking for? Intro Music By: Mike Outland

The Heir's Promise 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

Discover the true meaning of courage through Joshua 1:9: “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” Learn how faith in God empowers us to overcome fear, embrace challenges, and walk boldly in His purpose. Explore biblical insights, inspiring stories, and practical ways to live with unwavering courage in your daily life. Let God's presence be your strength! Music Composed By: Mike Outland

GOD ALWAYS 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.”

DEVOTION AND MEDITATION 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.

In a world that often measures worth by status, talent, and achievement, “Using Ordinary People” brings us back to the truth that God's Kingdom operates differently. He calls the unlikely. He equips the humble. He transforms the broken. And He takes what the world dismisses and turns it into a testimony of His power. Whether you feel unqualified, unseen, or unsure of your purpose, this message will remind you that God has always done His greatest work through people just like you.

THIS IS THE LIFE PODCAST Joy is a choice! In John 15:11, Jesus reminds us that His joy is meant to remain in us, making our joy complete. Discover how choosing to be joyful, even in difficult times, can transform your life and strengthen your faith. Read more for encouragement and biblical wisdom!

“Everlasting” is a song that grew out of those quiet moments when your heart drifts toward the people you've loved and lost, and you find yourself wondering what they're seeing on the other side. It's a reminder that faith gives us a kind of vision the eyes can't provide—a way of seeing beyond the horizon of this life. Writing this song feels like standing at the edge of time, sensing that this world is only part of the story, and that somewhere ahead there's a place where every voice you miss is waiting in perfect peace. The chorus becomes a promise we cling to: that one day, in one accord, we'll join those we love and sing the only song that lasts forever. “Everlasting” is more than a song, it's a reminder that nothing in God's Hands is ever truly lost.

Focused on a New Direction – Galatians 1:13-14 Some people possess an unstoppable drive, pouring their passion, energy, and determination into everything they do. But what happens when that relentless pursuit is aimed in the wrong direction? In Galatians 1:13-14, Paul reflects on his own misguided zeal before encountering Christ. This devotional explores how God can redirect even the most fervent hearts, transforming misplaced ambition into a powerful force for His purpose. Discover how to realign your focus and follow God's true path for your life. #Faith #Galatians #SpiritualTransformation Music Composed By: Mike Outland

WHERE DO YOU RUN The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe. Proverbs 18:10 When children are afraid, they know instinctively where to run. They look for a parent, a grandparent, an older sibling or someone who makes them feel safe. God designed us the same way. We were created to know where to run when life overwhelms us. To know who to call on when fear and danger close in. Proverbs 18:10 gives us this simple, powerful truth: Music By: Mike Outland

“And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.” — Romans 8:28 We all have those moments that we replay in our minds like old movie reels. Perhaps wishing you could go back and do things differently. A conversation you could have handled with more grace, or path you would avoid if we had only known where it led. But here's the honest truth: even if we could go back and do some things over, we'd likely just make different mistakes. Different choices might lead us to different people or places, but they wouldn't make us perfect. We would likely just trade one set of regrets for another.

The Greatest Blessing “And I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing.” (Genesis 12:2 When we think of blessings, we often picture what we receive: health, family, daily provision, and answered prayers. We thank God for these gifts, as we should, But have you ever considered that the greatest blessing of all is to be a blessing? Music By: Mike Outland

ACCEPTING EACH OTHER Romans 15:7 7 Wherefore receive ye one another, as Christ also received us to the glory of God. There is something beautiful about the diversity of God's family. If you look around in your church, your community, or even your own family, you'll see a it in the different personalities, backgrounds, cultures, and life stories. Each of us carry our own set of experiences that shape how we think, speak, and act. Some grew up in loving, safe homes; others learned to survive in harsh and harmful environments. Some were taught patience and gentleness, while others had to fight just to be heard. Yet in the middle of all this diversity, and sometimes tension, the Word of God calls us to this clear command: “Receive ye one another, as Christ also received us to the glory of God.” Music By: Mike Outland

WHY YOUR POSITION IS IMPORTANT “But the Lord is faithful, who shall stablish you, and keep you from evil.” – 2 Thessalonians 3:3 There's something powerfully important about being in position. If a soldier is out of position it compromises the entire line of defense. A lighthouse moved even slightly from its fixed point can no longer guide ships safely. If a wheel is slightly off center it will vibrate the entire car, and in the same way, when we step out of the place God has established for us,whether it's our position of faith, calling, or obedience, we open ourselves up to unnecessary battles, confusion, and vulnerability. But God, in His faithfulness, doesn't leave us to drift alone. Intro Music By: Mike Outland

Life is full of challenges. There are moments when obstacles seem too big, setbacks feel overwhelming, and opposition comes from every direction. It's easy to feel discouraged when things don't go as planned. But in those moments of uncertainty, there is a powerful truth that provides strength and reassurance: “What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?” — Romans 8:31 Music Composed By: Mike Outland

A New Thing For You Isaiah 43:19 – “Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.” There is something powerful about the word “Behold.” It means stop, look, and pay attention. God is calling us to see something in this verse. Something we may have missed because you've been too caught up in the past or too worn down by your present situation. He says, “I will do a new thing.” Not might or maybe, but “I Will”. Music By: Mike Outland

A Shield Around Us For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.” (Psalm 5:12 What a promise this verse holds! Imagine God Himself promising to bless the righteous, to surround them with favor as with a shield. It's a beautiful, comforting picture of divine protection. Music By: Mike Outland

THIS IS THE LIFE PODCAST THY WILL BE DONE. --- There's something powerful about what happened in the garden of Gethsemane. It seems to be late in the evening, and Jesus knew what was coming—suffering, betrayal and the cross. He walked a little farther into the garden, fell on His face, and prayed, “O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.” In that moment, we see Jesus fully engaged in His humanity. He felt the weight and the pain of what was ahead. He wasn't rushing toward the cross. He was honest. He didn't want to suffer. He asked the Father if there was another way.

A PATH JUST 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.” There have been moments in my life, when the path seemed clear and easy, while other times felt like walking through fog, unsure of what's ahead. But here in Psalm 16:11, David reminds us of something important: God Himself is our Guide. He doesn't just point us in a direction and leave us, He shows us the path of life. 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

Are You Filtering God's Word Too often, we read God's Word through the lens of our opinions, traditions, or emotions—filtering out what doesn't align with our comfort zone. This message reminds us that the Holy Spirit, not human reasoning, should be the only filter through which we understand truth. When we allow the Spirit to guide us, the Word becomes alive, clear, and transforming. Music By: Mike Outland

A PRAYER FOR WISDOM DEVOTION AND MEDITATION Psalm 111:10 - Psalm 90:12 Philippians 4:6-7 Today we seek the heart of God for His Wisdom and Peace.

Sometimes, God has to take something away to give us something better. Blinded That I Might See explores this powerful truth through the story of Paul's conversion in Acts 9. Saul was struck blind on the road to Damascus, but through his loss of sight, he gained a deeper spiritual vision and a new purpose. This inspiring message reminds us that God's plans often require surrender, transformation, and trust. When we let go, He replaces what we lose with something far greater. Perfect for faith-based reflection, devotionals, and Bible study. Building A Better Life, Starts With Building A Better You. Music composed by: MIKE OUTLAND MUSIC

Isaiah 49:16 – “Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands; thy walls are continually before me.” There are few things more personal than our hands. They carry the fingerprints of our identity. They bear the scars of our life story. Hands are where work is done, where comfort is given, and where love is shown. When we hold something or someone dear, we hold them close, often, in our hands. So when God says in Isaiah 49:16, “Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my Hands,” He isn't just offering poetic comfort. He's declaring something sacred, something Eternal. He's showing us how deeply and permanently we are connected to Him. Music By: Mike Outland

Not Until God Says You Are Exodus 3:1–4 1 Now Moses kept the flock of Jethro his father in law, the priest of Midian: and he led the flock to the backside of the desert, and came to the mountain of God, even to Horeb. 2 And the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush: and he looked, and, behold, the bush burned with fire, and the bush was not consumed. 3 And Moses said, I will now turn aside, and see this great sight, why the bush is not burnt. 4 And when the LORD saw that he turned aside to see, God called unto him out of the midst of the bush, and said, Moses, Moses. And he said, Here am I. Hidden in this familiar story of Moses and the burning bush is a truth about identity and timing. For years, Moses had lived in obscurity, tending sheep on the backside of the desert. He wasn't leading armies or standing before kings. He wasn't preaching or performing miracles. He was just watching over another man's flock. To most people, Moses was simply a forgotten fugitive from Egypt. Perhaps it appeared that he was a man who had failed to fulfill his purpose. But God was not finished with him yet. Music By: Mike Outland

GETTING AWAY FROM THE ENEMY James 4:6–8 6 But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8 Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. There's a powerful simplicity in these three short verses. They form a roadmap for victory over spiritual battles—clear steps that don't depend on our strength, but on our surrender. James gives us three commands that work together like links in a chain: submit, resist, and draw near. When these are followed in order, the result is unmistakable—“the devil will flee.” Music By: Mike Outland
