Podcasts about Arise

Micah 6:1-4, 6-8 - Hear what the Lord says: Arise, plead your case before the mountains, and let the hills hear your voice. Hear, you mountains, the indictment of the Lord, and you enduring foundations of the earth, for the Lord has an indictment against His people, and He will contend with Israel. “O My people, what have I done to you? How have I wearied you? Answer Me! For I brought you up from the land of Egypt and redeemed you from the house of slavery, and I sent before you Moses, Aaron, and Miriam.” … “With what shall I come before the Lord, and bow myself before God on high? Shall I come before Him with burnt offerings, with calves a year old? Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams, with ten thousands of rivers of oil? Shall I give my firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?” He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?

Today on the Evangelism Podcast, I interview David Ro. He has been leading a movement called Arise Asia that is having a massive impact on young people across Asia. We'll hear all about this inspiring work and David's vision for the future of Asian missions. Arise Asia is a movement that has brought together over 11,000 young people from 37 countries across Asia, challenging them to "go where there's no gospel."  This has resulted in over 1,600 commitments from young people to long-term or one-year cross-cultural missions. The goal of Arise Asia is to "catalyze this generation, gen Z" and see the movement spread to other regions like the MENA region and Latin America. The aim is to give young people a "God's heart for the nation" and a sense of purpose. Rather than "softening the gospel", Arise Asia takes the approach of "lifting the bar high" and challenging young people to be willing to give their lives and potentially face martyrdom for Jesus. This bold approach has resonated with young people, with large numbers responding by committing to long-term missions, even to places with difficult or dangerous conditions.

What happens when a weary soul encounters the living Word of God? In this powerful message, we open Psalm 119:25–28 and discover that the Word of God is not merely informative—it is restorative. Scripture reveals that God's Word revives the weary, strengthens the weak, restores the broken, and sustains the believer. As part of our ARISE vision—Awaken. Restore. Invest. Send. Expand.—this service focuses on the truth that awakening is only the beginning. God does not simply wake His people; He restores them, and His Word is the source. In this message, you'll hear how the Word of God: • Restores joy to the weary soul • Rekindles fire, praise, and worship in difficult seasons • Renews strength for endurance • Rebuilds hope for the future • Reawakens purpose in every believer We also proclaim the gospel clearly—restoration begins with reconciliation to God through Jesus Christ. By His blood, we are redeemed. By grace through faith, we are made new. And through the living Word, restoration continues in our lives today. If you are hurting, weary, discouraged, or searching for renewal, this service is for you. Shady Grove Church is committed to being a church of restoration—a refuge church—where the Word is honored and the Spirit moves.

Making Disciples at Arise | Pastor Will Cover

In Acts 3, Peter heals a man lame from birth at the temple gate. Peter and John were going to the temple for the hour of prayer when they encountered the man. The man asked them for alms, but Peter offered him something far greater: healing in the name of Jesus Christ. He commanded the man to rise and walk, and instantly, the man's feet and ankles were strengthened. The man leaped up, walked, and praised God, amazing onlookers who knew him as a lifelong beggar. This miracle, performed under the authority of Jesus, highlights the power of the gospel and God's desire to offer new life and spiritual healing.

A funeral procession leaves the city of Nain, carrying the only son of a widow, but it collides with the Lord of Life. In this episode of The Magnificent 37, we witness a miracle of pure, unsolicited grace. No one asks Jesus to help; His heart simply breaks for the grieving mother. He touches the coffin, making Himself ceremonially unclean, to make the boy clean and alive. This raising of the dead foreshadows the day when Christ will wipe away every tear and death shall be no more.   The Rev. Robert Smith, pastor emeritus in Ft. Wayne, IN, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Luke 7:11–17.   Thy Strong Word kicks off the new year by dedicating our time to study "The Magnificent 37: The Miracles of Jesus." Christ didn't just speak the Word; He demonstrated it with power. From the quiet intimacy of water turning to wine at Cana to the earth-shaking reality of the empty tomb, the Gospels record thirty-seven distinct moments where Jesus suspended the laws of nature to reveal the power of his grace. This isn't just a list of "neat tricks" from history. It is a systematic walkthrough of how God breaks into our broken world to fix it. Why did Jesus curse a fig tree? Why did He need mud to heal a blind man? What does the coin in the fish's mouth teach us about being citizens of heaven and earth?  Host, Pastor Phil Booe and a lineup of guest pastors will take you through each event, verse by verse. We'll move past the Sunday School summary and get into the meat of the text, including the Old Testament connections, the cultural context, and the immediate comfort these signs bring to your life today.   Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations.

On today's program, the pastor of Arise Vineyard in California has resigned after old allegations resurfaced of inappropriate behavior. We'll have details. And, medical debt continues to be a growing burden for many American families—but churches are partnering to help pay it off. We'll take a look. Plus, a Baptist news publication is sued for defamation by a former college professor who says he was falsely accused of sexual abuse. But first, a Florida woman is charged for impersonating the father of a Camp Mystic victim to raise money through a GoFundMe page. The complaint identifies Maitlin White, who used Matthew Childress' name and his daughter's picture to start a GoFund Me campaign to raise money. Childress lost his daughter Chloe during the July 4 floods that swept through Camp Mystic last year, killing 27 campers and counselors. The producer for today's program is Jeff McIntosh. We get database and other technical support from Stephen DuBarry, Rod Pitzer, and Casey Sudduth.

CR18 X2M.240 — Qōm קוֹם (The Standing Pattern · Authority Acts Without Announcement) Authority does not culminate in survival. It culminates in motion that no longer needs permission. Qōm names the moment when endurance becomes action. In its biblical usage, קוֹם does not describe ascent under pressure, but standing into action. It is the verb of arising to speak, arising to judge, arising to move history forward. The strain remains, but the posture changes. What endured now advances.¹ If Yāqûm is authority that refuses collapse, Qōm is authority that no longer waits. CR18 assigns X2M.240 to the phase where coherence stops merely absorbing disturbance and begins shaping the field again. The apparatus is still unreliable. Opposition has not vanished. But the sovereign no longer defines himself in relation to resistance. He stands and acts because standing has become stable. Scripture consistently frames Qōm as the transition from hidden fidelity to visible execution. “Arise, O Lord,” is not a request for proof. It is a declaration that the time for proof has passed.² In narrative terms, this is the shift from Micaiah in prison to Elijah calling fire, from Joseph enduring confinement to Joseph administering famine, from David hunted to David governing. The authority that endured silence now speaks, and the speaking rearranges reality. Qōm does not seek consensus. It does not explain itself. It does not ask whether the field is ready. It stands and by standing, compels alignment. This is not escalation. It is inevitability. The compression here reverses direction: what was previously internalized now externalizes, what was borne now issues, what was tested now governs.³ Here coherence no longer merely survives noise. It imposes structure upon it. In CR18 terms, Qōm marks the first lawful re-extension of authority after total withdrawal. This is not apparatus restoration. Titles are still suspect. Spectacle is still forbidden. But authority is now operative rather than merely recognizable. The Canon treats this as a dangerous moment not because authority might fail, but because it might overreach. Qōm therefore carries restraint. Standing does not mean seizing. Action does not mean domination. Authority moves, but only as coherence permits. This is why Qōm follows Yāqûm and not before it. Only what has refused collapse is permitted to advance. In system terms, this is where coherence recovery becomes coherence projection. The system does not merely return to equilibrium after disturbance; it shapes the trajectory of the field itself.⁴ Noise still exists. Opposition still mutters. But the axis has shifted. Qōm is not glory. It is lawful motion. It is the first step taken without apology. The first word spoken without defense. The first action that assumes continuity rather than risk. This is standing that moves history. And once it occurs, retreat is no longer an option. Glorification | The Final Frontier Going boldly where the last man has gone before!

Subscribers can dive into exclusive, extended conversations from this podcast! To join the adventure, head to BumpInTheRoad.Substack.com. Julie Condliffe was born in Zimbabwe. But early on, she had the dream of becoming a solicitor. Julie's early life was marked by tragedy and hardship. After the death of her father when she was just a baby, her mother struggled to raise eight children in a country rife with poverty and instability. Despite these challenges, Julie made a pivotal decision at a young age: she would become a solicitor to fight for justice and advocate for those in need. In 1998, Julie left Zimbabwe for the United Kingdom, seeking a better life. She recalls nights spent sleeping in payphone booths in London. In spite such difficulties, she ultimately achieved her dream of becoming a solicitor. But Julie's story doesn't end there. After years of successful practice, she faced the biggest bump in her life—a social media hate campaign that led to the loss of her legal career. Despite this setback, Julie found strength in her pain and began to write her book, "Unbreakable." Through this process, she developed the ARISE framework, a powerful tool for navigating life's challenges. ARISE stands for Acceptance, Roadblocks, Intuition, Sacred Vision, and Enjoying the Journey. Each step offers valuable insights into how we can reframe our challenges and view them as opportunities for growth and transformation. Julie emphasizes the importance of intuition and the need to listen to our inner voice, especially in a world filled with external noise and opinions. This is a remarkable story of a remarkable woman. It's a story that just might change your life. It's an Award Winning, Amazon best selling book! What they're saying: "This is a beautiful book about life, its imperfections, its challenges, and its joys. It is a book of hope and wisdom for all of us facing a bump in the road." –Pragito Dove "Pat has woven together beautiful stories of life setbacks that have been transformed into spiritual growth. This book is a gift and a must-read for souls experiencing pain and yearning for growth." –Gary Hensel Learn more at BumpInTheRoad.us Follow Bump on: ➡️ Twitter ➡️ Facebook ➡️ Substack ➡️ Instagram ➡️ YouTube

Dealing with Depression: Finding Hope and Victory in the God of All Comfort    Depression is a profound heaviness of soul that the Scriptures describe with raw honesty. The Bible does not employ our modern clinical term, but it portrays the experience vividly: the spirit overwhelmed, the heart cast down, the bones troubled, the soul in despair, even the wish that life would end. Yet the same Word that records this darkness repeatedly declares that God draws near to the brokenhearted, that He is the lifter of the head, that His comfort abounds in affliction, and that joy comes in the morning. Throughout Scripture we see God's choicest servants pass through seasons of deep discouragement. Their stories are recorded not to magnify their weakness but to display God's faithfulness in the lowest places. By examining these lives, and by listening carefully to the voice of God in His Word, we discover divine principles for enduring and overcoming depression from a thoroughly biblical standpoint. I. Elijah: Despair After Victory The prophet Elijah stands as one of the clearest examples. In 1 Kings 18 he experienced one of the greatest public triumphs in redemptive history—fire falling from heaven on Mount Carmel, the prophets of Baal defeated, the people confessing that the Lord is God, and rain ending a three-and-a-half-year drought. Yet in chapter 19, a single threat from Jezebel sends him fleeing in fear and exhaustion. Hear the Word of the Lord in 1 Kings 19:3-4 (KJV): “And when he saw that, he arose, and went for his life, and came to Beersheba, which belongeth to Judah, and left his servant there. But he himself went a day's journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a juniper tree: and he requested for himself that he might die; and said, It is enough; now, O LORD, take away my life; for I am not better than my fathers.” Elijah, the man who had just called down fire, now prays for death. He feels his labor has been in vain, that he is no better than his fathers, that everything is “enough.” This is the language of depression: exhaustion, hopelessness, isolation, and suicidal ideation. But observe God's tender response. Verses 5-8: “And as he lay and slept under a juniper tree, behold, then an angel touched him, and said unto him, Arise and eat. And he looked, and, behold, there was a cake baken on the coals, and a cruse of water at his head. And he did eat and drink, and laid him down again. And the angel of the LORD came again the second time, and touched him, and said, Arise and eat; because the journey is too great for thee. And he arose, and did eat and drink, and went in the strength of that meat forty days and forty nights unto Horeb the mount of God.” God does not begin with rebuke. He begins with physical care—sleep, food, water—twice. The angel acknowledges the reality of Elijah's limitation: “the journey is too great for thee.” God remembers that we are dust (Psalm 103:14). When Elijah reaches Horeb, he repeats his complaint in verses 9-10: “And he came thither unto a cave, and lodged there; and, behold, the word of the LORD came to him, and he said unto him, What doest thou here, Elijah? And he said, I have been very jealous for the LORD God of hosts: for the children of Israel have forsaken thy covenant, thrown down thine altars, and slain thy prophets with the sword; and I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away.” Depression distorts perspective. Elijah believes he is utterly alone. God gently corrects him in verse 18: “Yet I have left me seven thousand in Israel, all the knees which have not bowed unto Baal, and every mouth which hath not kissed him.” Then God gives Elijah new work and a successor. God meets Elijah in his depression with physical provision, truthful perspective, renewed purpose, and the quiet whisper of His presence (verses 11-13). II. Job: Prolonged Suffering and Overwhelming Grief Few stories portray sustained depression more graphically than Job's. A righteous man suddenly stripped of wealth, children, and health, Job sits in ashes, scraping his sores, wishing he had never been born. Job 3:1-3, 11-13, 20-26 (KJV): “After this opened Job his mouth, and cursed his day. And Job spake, and said, Let the day perish wherein I was born, and the night in which it was said, There is a man child conceived… Why died I not from the womb? why did I not give up the ghost when I came out of the belly? Why did the knees prevent me? or why the breasts that I should suck? For now should I have lain still and been quiet, I should have slept: then had I been at rest… Wherefore is light given to him that is in misery, and life unto the bitter in soul; Which long for death, but it cometh not; and dig for it more than for hid treasures; Which rejoice exceedingly, and are glad, when they can find the grave? Why is light given to a man whose way is hid, and whom God hath hedged in? For my sighing cometh before I eat, and my roarings are poured out like the waters. For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, and that which I was afraid of is come unto me. I am not at ease, neither am I quiet, neither have I rest; but trouble cometh.” Job's anguish is physical, emotional, and spiritual. He cannot eat without sighing; anxiety and dread consume him. His friends' misguided counsel only deepens the wound. Yet through forty-two chapters God allows Job to pour out every complaint. God does not silence him. Finally, in chapters 38–41, the Lord speaks—not with easy answers, but with a revelation of His sovereign wisdom and power. Job's response in 42:5-6: “I have heard of thee by the hearing of the ear: but now mine eye seeth thee. Wherefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes.” Seeing God afresh brings repentance, humility, and eventual restoration. Job's depression lifts not when circumstances immediately improve, but when he encounters the majesty and goodness of God in a deeper way. III. David: The Psalms of the Cast-Down Soul No biblical figure gives us more transparent language for depression than David. The Psalms are filled with his cries from the depths. Psalm 42:1-11 (KJV): “As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God. My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God: when shall I come and appear before God? My tears have been my meat day and night, while they continually say unto me, Where is thy God? When I remember these things, I pour out my soul in me: for I had gone with the multitude, I went with them to the house of God, with the voice of joy and praise, with a multitude that kept holyday. Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted in me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him for the help of his countenance. O my God, my soul is cast down within me: therefore will I remember thee from the land of Jordan, and of the Hermonites, from the hill Mizar. Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of thy waterspouts: all thy waves and thy billows are gone over me. Yet the LORD will command his lovingkindness in the daytime, and in the night his song shall be with me, and my prayer unto the God of my life. I will say unto God my rock, Why hast thou forgotten me? why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy? As with a sword in my bones, mine enemies reproach me; while they say daily unto me, Where is thy God? Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.” Notice David's pattern: honest lament (“my tears have been my meat,” “all thy waves and thy billows are gone over me”), self-exhortation (“Why art thou cast down, O my soul? … hope thou in God”), remembrance of God's past faithfulness, and confident expectation of future praise. Psalm 43 continues the same theme, ending with the identical refrain. Psalm 77 shows Asaph following the same path—remembering God's mighty deeds until hope revives. Psalm 88 is perhaps the darkest psalm, ending without explicit resolution on earth, yet still addressed to “LORD God of my salvation.” Even unresolved sorrow is brought to God. IV. Jeremiah: The Weeping Prophet Jeremiah's ministry spanned decades of rejection and judgment upon Judah. He is called “the weeping prophet” for good reason. Lamentations 3:1-20 (selected verses, KJV): “I am the man that hath seen affliction by the rod of his wrath. He hath led me, and brought me into darkness, but not into light… He hath hedged me about, that I cannot get out: he hath made my chain heavy. Also when I cry and shout, he shutteth out my prayer… He hath filled me with bitterness, he hath made me drunken with wormwood… And thou hast removed my soul far off from peace: I forgat prosperity. And I said, My strength and my hope is perished from the LORD: Remembering mine affliction and my misery, the wormwood and the gall. My soul hath them still in remembrance, and is humbled in me.” Jeremiah feels God has become his enemy, that prayer is blocked, that hope has perished. Yet in the very center of Lamentations comes one of the most hope-filled passages in Scripture, verses 21-26: “This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope. It is of the LORD's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness. The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him. The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him. It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD.” Jeremiah preaches to himself the truth of God's character. Remembering God's steadfast love and faithfulness becomes the turning point. V. Other Examples: Moses, Hannah, Jonah, Paul Moses, burdened with leading a complaining people, cries in Numbers 11:11-15 (KJV): “And Moses said unto the LORD, Wherefore hast thou afflicted thy servant? and wherefore have I not found favour in thy sight, that thou layest the burden of all this people upon me? … I am not able to bear all this people alone, because it is too heavy for me. And if thou deal thus with me, kill me, I pray thee, out of hand, if I have found favour in thy sight; and let me not see my wretchedness.” God responds by sharing the burden with seventy elders and providing meat—practical help and companionship. Hannah, barren and provoked, is “in bitterness of soul” (1 Samuel 1:10). She pours out her soul before the Lord, and though her circumstances do not change immediately, “her countenance was no more sad” (1:18) after entrusting her grief to God. Jonah, angry at God's mercy to Nineveh, prays in Jonah 4:3 (KJV): “Therefore now, O LORD, take, I beseech thee, my life from me; for it is better for me to die than to live.” God patiently teaches him through a plant, a worm, and a wind. Even the apostle Paul knew despair. In 2 Corinthians 1:8-10 (KJV): “For we would not, brethren, have you ignorant of our trouble which came to us in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure, above strength, insomuch that we despaired even of life: But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God which raiseth the dead: Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that he will yet deliver us.” Paul's despair drove him deeper into dependence upon the God who raises the dead. VI. The Lord Jesus: Sorrow Without Sin Our Savior Himself entered into sorrow. In Gethsemane, Matthew 26:38 (KJV): “Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: tarry ye here, and watch with me.” He sweat as it were great drops of blood (Luke 22:44). Yet He submitted: “not my will, but thine, be done.” Hebrews 5:7 speaks of His “strong crying and tears.” Christ identifies with our weakness and intercedes for us as One touched with the feeling of our infirmities (Hebrews 4:15). VII. God's Promises of Comfort and Deliverance The Scriptures abound with assurances: Psalm 34:17-19 (KJV): “The righteous cry, and the LORD heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles. The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit. Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all.” Isaiah 41:10 (KJV): “Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.” 2 Corinthians 1:3-4 (KJV): “Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.” Psalm 30:5 (KJV): “For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.” VIII. How Believers Today Can Deal with Depression and Gain Victory from a Biblical Standpoint The examples and promises above yield clear, scriptural pathways for fighting depression today: Bring every feeling honestly before God. The Psalms model unfiltered lament. Do not hide your despair; pour it out. God invites it and can handle it. Preach truth to yourself. Like David and Jeremiah, recall God's character, past faithfulness, and unchanging promises. Speak Scripture aloud when feelings contradict truth. Care for the body God gave you. Elijah's story reminds us that exhaustion, hunger, and isolation exacerbate depression. Sleep, nourishment, exercise, and medical care when needed are acts of stewardship, not lack of faith. Seek godly community. Elijah felt alone, but was not. Isolation feeds depression; fellowship counters it. Confess faults, bear burdens, receive prayer (James 5:16; Galatians 6:2). Fix your eyes on Christ. He endured the cross for the joy set before Him (Hebrews 12:2). Our light affliction works an eternal weight of glory (2 Corinthians 4:17-18). The gospel assures us that nothing can separate us from God's love (Romans 8:38-39). Wait upon the Lord with hope. Seasons of darkness do not last forever. “They that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint” (Isaiah 40:31). Victory is not always immediate deliverance from the feeling of depression, but it is certain triumph through union with Christ. Even if the night lingers, the Morning Star has risen in our hearts (2 Peter 1:19). One day He will wipe away every tear (Revelation 21:4). Until then, we walk by faith, anchored in the God who has never forsaken His own. The same God who sustained Elijah under the juniper tree, lifted Job from the ash heap, turned David's mourning into dancing, and carried Jeremiah through the furnace is your God. He is faithful. Hope in Him, and you shall yet praise Him, who is the health of your countenance and your God.

Arise And Build • 1-4-26 AM • Pastor Grant Garber

Again, David's Psalms command our attention. All of Psalm 9 is a marvelous overview of God's plan and purpose with human beings and the earth. At times God transports David's thoughts into the future when he, and those God counts as righteous, will say to their Creator, “You have rebuked the nations; you have made the wicked perish; you have blotted out their name for ever and ever. The enemy came to an end in everlasting ruins … the very memory of them has perished.” [v.5,6]On the other side of the picture, in contrast to this vision of annihilation, the next verses say, “But the LORD sits enthroned forever; he has established his throne for justice, he judges the earth with righteousness …” [v.7,8] A marvelous summary of how the kingdom of God will function.Our Genesis reading tells us of Noah and his family in the ark and then stepping out onto a cleansed earth, all the godless having been destroyed. God promises Noah that he will never “again strike down every living creature” despite “man's heart being evil from his youth.” [8 v.21] Not many generations pass before men build the tower of Babel and as a result God “confused the languages of all the earth” and caused men to spread out “over the face of all the earth” [11 v.6-9]So the renewal of belief and faith with Noah and his family did not last. Abraham's father and brother “served other Gods.” [Josh 24 v.2] We can see some comparison between Noah and his sons and the huge spiritual renewal that followed the widespread translation and printing of the Bible 300 to 400 years ago. But that renewal has now faded away and how few have the understanding and faith of Abraham to whom the Gospel was first preached (see.Gal. 3 v8). The blessings to come on the nations through this gospel are David's vision in this ninth Psalm.How marvelous is v.10, “And those who know your name put their trust in you. For you, O LORD, have not forsaken those who seek you” But “the nations have sunk into the pit that they made, in the net that they hid, their own foot has been caught.” [v.15] To “know” is more than to just understanding, it is to have a relationship – read Psalm 95 v.1-7 – John 17 v.3Let us seek the Lord. Those who know God, who truly believe, will make the final 2 verses of this Psalm their prayer. “Arise, O LORD! Let not man prevail; let the nations be judged before you! Put them in fear, O LORD! Let the nations know that they are but men!”Later in Matthew we will read the words of Jesus, “whoever humbles himself will be exalted” [23 v.12] God will humble those who do not humble themselves. Let us not be caught up in the spirit around us, that is that human beings believe they are gaining all the answers to life and its meaning and that there is no need to seek God, or even believe he exists. Let us ponder Psalm 14 and reflect upon it

The Faith of Christians, Churches, and Nations Can Be Tested and Doubts Arise in Today's World; However, God Is Faithful and Will Not Forsake You MESSAGE SUMMARY: God will never leave you or forsake you. Even when difficulties arise and you are tempted to walk away from your faith, God will not leave you. When you are tempted to doubt God, remember that God is faithful. When the Apostles questioned Jesus about faith and prayer, Jesus told the Apostles, in Mathew 21:21-22, that your faith is powerful and that God will respond to your faith: “And Jesus answered them, ‘Truly, I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what has been done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and thrown into the sea,' it will happen. And whatever you ask in prayer, you will receive, if you have faith.'”. Hold, unswervingly, to the hope and faith you profess because God, who promised us, is faithful. While you are endeavoring to hold onto your faith in God and Jesus' Gospel, you need to always remember the faithfulness of God, even in those times in which you may be doubting or questioning your faith. Do not give up your faith!   TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, fill me with the simple trust that even out of the most awful evil around me, you are able to bring great good — for me, for others, and for your great glory. In Jesus' name, amen.     Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 91). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, I affirm that because I am in Jesus Christ, I will entrust to Him my future. I know whom I have believed, and am convinced that he is able to guard what I have entrusted to him for that day.  From 2 Timothy 1:12 SCRIPTURE REFERENCE (ESV): Psalms 91:1-10; Mathew 28:16-20; Mathew 6:25-34; Psalms 18b:11-20.
