This blessing is not just a prayer or wish...

Leave the “when” and “how” and “where” up to your commander-in-chief...

People will reject you because they reject Christ, but Jesus will never reject you.

Galatians 3:26,27 reminds us that even though we are baptized into a battlefield—where we are constantly bombarded by the attacks of the devil—we are also baptized into Christ. Jesus doesn't leave us alone.

Today we hear about the most important rescue operation in history.

Do you feel that you are right where you need to be?

In Luke 3, John the Baptist says to you and to me, “Repent for the forgiveness of your sins.”

During this week of Thanksgiving, what are you thankful for? How has God blessed you?

Wait for that day when Jesus comes from the skies in his love and mercy to bring you home to eternal life in heaven.

You already know the outcome of what's going to happen to you.

The sword of God—his powerful Word, which pierces to the depths of our souls and reveals the darkness inside....

Duty. Honor. Loyalty. Sacrifice. Discipline. For those of you who serve or have served in our nation's armed forces, you know the importance of these values...

Jesus says, “Anyone who wants to be first must be the very last, and the servant of all.” Humility, then, seeks forgiveness for the sin of pride. Humility looks to Christ for that forgiveness.

What do we eat when our souls and our hearts growl, reminding us of this aching hole that longs to be filled with the bread of forgiveness for that guilt?

You are surrounded. You are surrounded by people who don't necessarily share your morals, values, or faith in Jesus. And yet our Lord Jesus says to you and me today, “Do not be afraid, for those who are with us are more than those who are with them.”

God has generously given us all that we need. We will now be generous to others in every way.

Are you tired? I'm sure that you are. You need rest—not just physical rest but spiritual rest.

So, what is it that qualifies us to share Jesus with other people?

Focus on the commanding officer's orders and share the gospel. Endure any hardship that may come as a result of sharing that message.

Sometimes, in God's wisdom, he allows us to suffer because it is necessary for us so we repent. When we repent and turn to the Lord, our God of compassion faithfully forgives our sin every single day.
