David's exclamation—“O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!”—is not mere repetition. It is a reaffirmation of the one truth that grounds all others: the glory of God revealed in His name.Join Pastor Balla as he unpacks the power of God's name, the personal nature of the phrase “our Lord,” and how lifting our eyes in praise brings clarity in a chaotic world.

Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for August 1, 2025. Today's message, “Crowned with Glory and Honor”from Psalm 8:5–8, explores the astonishing truth that God, in His majesty, has crowned humanity with purpose and dignity.Even though we feel small beneath the stars, Scripture tells us we were made “a little lower than the heavenly beings,” given dominion over creation, and crowned with glory. In this Christ-centered devotion, Pastor Balla reflects on how this passage not only recalls humanity's original calling in Genesis but also points us to Jesus, the perfect fulfillment of Psalm 8. Where Adam failed, Christ reigns. Where we fell, He lifts us up.Join us for this biblical devotion to rediscover your God-given worth and responsibility in Christ, the true image of God who wore a crown of thorns to restore us.#Psalm8 #CrownedWithGlory #DailyDevotion #PastorBalla #ChristOurKing #ImageOfGod

The God who set the heavens in place is mindful of you. He cares for you. He sent His Son for you.Join us in this Scripture-based devotion as we find comfort and humility in God's personal care for humanity.

Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for July 30, 2025. Today's devotion, “How Majestic Is Your Name,” is drawn from Psalm 8:1–2, a breathtaking celebration of God's glory in creation and in the voices of children.David's psalm begins with awe: “O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth!” But the glory of God isn't limited to the stars. It is also revealed through the humble strength of children. Their praise silences the enemy and reveals a truth the world often forgets—God's majesty is both infinite and intimate.Join Pastor Balla as he reflects on the surprising ways God displays His power: in the heavens above and in the trusting voice of a child.

Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for July 29, 2025. Today's reflection, “He Who Digs a Pit Will Fall Into It,” is based on Psalm 7:14–17, a sobering yet hopeful meditation on the self-destructive nature of sin and the steadfast righteousness of God.David illustrates how evil backfires—wickedness conceived in secret returns upon the perpetrator. The liar falls into his own trap; violence crashes back upon the violent. Yet amid this reality, David gives thanks—not because the wicked suffer, but because God is just. His justice is active, not passive. He sees what the world overlooks.Join Pastor Balla as he explores the dual call of this psalm: a warning to the unrepentant and a call for the faithful to trust in God's justice. And most importantly, rejoice in Christ, who rescues us from the pit we have dug.#Psalm7 #DailyDevotion #PastorBalla #GodsJustice #RepentAndRejoice #ChristOurRescue

Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for July 28, 2025. Today's devotion, “My Shield Is with God,” draws from Psalm 7:10–13, where David proclaims God as the righteous Judge and faithful Defender of the upright in heart.This powerful passage contrasts God's mercy and judgment. He is a shield for those who trust in Him, yet He also prepares for judgment against the unrepentant. His fiery arrows are not idle threats but warnings calling sinners to repentance. For those who reject God's mercy, there awaits holy indignation; but for those who believe in Christ, there is sure defense.The Gospel shines through: Jesus took the arrows of God's wrath so that we may be shielded by grace. Our safety is not in our own strength but in the righteousness of Christ.Join Pastor Balla as he unpacks the comfort and warning in God's justice.#Psalm7 #DailyDevotion #PastorBalla #GodOurShield #RighteousJudge #GraceAndJudgment

Today's devotion, “Arise, O Lord, in Your Anger,”reflects on Psalm 7:6–9, where David calls upon God to rise in holy anger against wickedness and to vindicate the righteous.David's appeal is not for revenge, but for justice—that evil would be restrained and the righteous upheld. He places his case before the divine Judge who tests minds and hearts, trusting in God's perfect and active righteousness. His prayer becomes our own as we long for justice in a world marred by sin.Yet we approach this judgment through the cross of Jesus Christ. There, the wrath of God was poured out, not on sinners, but on the sinless Son for our sake. In Him, we are declared righteous.Join Pastor Balla as we explore the comfort of God's justice fulfilled in Christ.#Psalm7 #DailyDevotion #PastorBalla #GodsJustice #JesusOurAdvocate #RighteousJudgment

Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for July 26, 2025. Today's devotion, “If There Is Wrong in My Hands,” is drawn from Psalm 7:3–5, where David boldly appeals to God's justice, declaring his innocence in the face of false accusation.This psalm challenges us to walk in godly integrity—not claiming perfection, but seeking a clean conscience before the Lord. David invites divine judgment, not in pride, but in trust. When wrongly accused, he does not retaliate, but entrusts himself to God. When guilty, he turns to mercy.As Christians, our righteousness comes not from our hands but from Christ's pierced hands. Jesus bore the curse we deserved and stands as our perfect Advocate. In Him, we may live free of guilt and full of peace.Join Pastor Balla for this powerful reflection on living with humility, truth, and trust in God's justice.#Psalm7 #DailyDevotion #PastorBalla #GodsJustice #ChristOurRighteousness #BiblicalIntegrity

Today's meditation, “In You Do I Take Refuge,” draws from Psalm 7:1–2, where David cries out, “O Lord my God, in you do I take refuge.” Pursued by enemies and threatened like prey before a lion, David turns not to earthly defenses but to the Lord alone.This powerful psalm reminds us where true safety lies — in God's unfailing protection. In Jesus Christ, we find our perfect refuge. He conquered the roaring lion of Satan and now shelters us from every assault of the evil one. Whether you're facing fear, temptation, accusation, or distress, take comfort: your Deliverer hears, sees, and saves.Join Pastor Balla for a Word of strength and encouragement.

In Jesus Christ, who bore our griefs and intercedes for us, we have the assurance that our prayers are received and our enemies — sin, death, and the devil — will be defeated. Even when the storm rages, our confidence rests in the Lord's steadfast love and justice.Join us for a Word of encouragement rooted in Scripture.

Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for July 23, 2025. Today's meditation, “I Am Weary with Moaning,” is drawn from Psalm 6:6–7, where David pours out his soul in tearful lament: “I flood my bed with tears… My eye wastes away because of grief.” In these raw verses, Scripture gives voice to deep suffering — not hidden or sanitized, but faithfully laid before the Lord.If you've ever experienced sleepless nights, aching hearts, or sorrow that lingers, this devotion is for you. David's tears point us to Christ, the Man of Sorrows, who took on our griefs and sanctified our suffering through the cross. In Jesus, your cries are not ignored — they are heard, known, and answered with enduring mercy.

Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for July 22, 2025. Today's reflection, “Turn and Deliver My Life,” draws from Psalm 6:4–5, where David pleads, “Turn, O Lord, deliver my life; save me for the sake of your steadfast love.” In these verses, we hear the cry of a heart not appealing to merit, but clinging to God's covenant mercy — His ḥesed, His faithful love.David longs to live not for his own sake, but to be a voice of praise among the living. Death silences song, but God's salvation revives it. This devotion centers on the unbreakable promise of God's love, ultimately fulfilled in Jesus Christ, who delivers us from sin and death by His cross and resurrection.

Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for July 21, 2025. Today's reflection, “O Lord, Rebuke Me Not,” is drawn from Psalm 6:1–3, a powerful cry for mercy amid suffering and sorrow. In this penitential psalm, David pleads for God's discipline to come not in wrath, but in grace. We hear the aching of a weary soul — “my bones are troubled… my soul is greatly troubled” — yet it is a soul that still turns to God and dares to ask, “How long, O Lord?”This devotion offers comfort to all who feel the weight of sin, illness, or silence from heaven. You are not abandoned. In Christ, God's wrath is satisfied, and His discipline becomes restoration. Bring your groaning to the Lord, for He hears and heals.

Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for July 20, 2025. Today's devotion, “Their Throat Is an Open Grave,”reflects on Psalm 5:9–12, where David contrasts the corrupt speech of the wicked with the joyful refuge of the righteous. Describing the deep depravity of sin, David laments the flattering lies and destructive counsel of those who rebel against God — words so empty they are likened to “an open grave.”Yet the psalm doesn't end in judgment. It lifts our eyes to the joy of those who take refuge in the Lord. While the deceitful fall, the righteous — those who trust in God's mercy — rejoice, sing, and dwell under His shield of favor.Through Christ, the grave is emptied and replaced with protection, peace, and everlasting joy.

Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for July 19, 2025. Today's devotion, “Through Your Abundant Steadfast Love,” is based on Psalm 5:7–8 and focuses on God's gracious invitation to draw near to Him. David reminds us that we enter God's presence not by our merit, but through the abundance of His steadfast love — His covenantal mercy that forgives and restores.This devotion points to Christ, the true and greater temple, through whom we boldly approach God in worship and prayer. David's prayer for guidance — “Lead me, O Lord, in your righteousness” — reflects the believer's daily need to be led in God's truth amid the trials and temptations of life.Find encouragement today in God's unchanging love and His faithful direction. Begin your day with reverent worship and a heart set on walking in His righteousness.

Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for July 18, 2025. Today's meditation is titled “You Are Not a God Who Delights in Wickedness” based on Psalm 5:4–6. In these powerful verses, David confesses the holiness of God — a God who takes no pleasure in wickedness, deceit, or bloodshed. Unlike the world, which often tolerates or excuses sin, the Lord is pure, righteous, and just.We reflect on how pride, lies, and violence stand condemned before His throne — not as distant sins of others, but as realities that call each of us to repentance. Yet this sobering truth is not without hope. In Christ Jesus, God has dealt fully with sin, offering forgiveness and righteousness to all who believe.Let this devotion lead you into a deeper reverence for God's holiness and a renewed trust in His mercy through Christ.

Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for July 17, 2025. Today's reflection, “Give Ear to My Words” from Psalm 5:1–3, teaches us the posture of faithful, honest prayer. David cries out with urgency and trust, not offering polished words but the groaning of a burdened heart. He calls on the Lord as “my King and my God”, acknowledging God's sovereign rule over every part of life.David begins his day with prayer — laying out his requests like a morning sacrifice and watching with hope for God to act. His prayer is not a ritual but a living sacrifice, offered in expectation and trust.Through Jesus Christ, our perfect King and Intercessor, we too may come boldly to the throne of grace. Start your day with this devotion and be reminded that the Lord hears, considers, and answers.

Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for July 16, 2025. Today's reflection, “You Have Put Gladness in My Heart” from Psalm 4:6–8, draws our hearts toward the true source of lasting joy and peace. In a world that anxiously asks, “Who will show us some good?”, David turns not to possessions or prosperity but to the presence of the Lord.When God lifts the light of His face upon us, He gives a joy that surpasses abundance — a gladness deeper than any harvest of grain or overflow of wine. This joy is not earned, but given — placed in our hearts by the God who redeems and sustains us.In Christ, we find rest that the world cannot offer. Join us in this devotion and discover peace that allows you to sleep in safety, knowing you are held in the hands of your Savior.

Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for July 15, 2025. Today's reflection, “Be Angry and Do Not Sin” from Psalm 4:4–5, speaks directly to our hearts in a world filled with tension and emotional unrest. David acknowledges the reality of anger — even righteous anger — but warns us not to be ruled by it.We are called to pause, ponder in silence, and respond with faith. In Christ, we are given a better way: holy restraint, genuine repentance, and trust in the Lord's justice. This devotion unpacks how prayer, silence, and right worship flow from hearts made new by grace.Whether wrestling with anger, sorrow, or frustration, let the Word of God lead you into peace and renewed trust. In Jesus, our sacrifice and righteousness, we are free to lay down wrath and take up faith.

Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for July 14, 2025. Today's reflection, “Answer When I Call” from Psalm 4:1–3, reminds us that prayer is not just ritual — it's communion with the God who hears, loves, and acts.David cries, “Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness!” — not based on his merit, but on the Lord's mercy. Though scorned and slandered, he holds fast to this truth: “The Lord has set apart the godly for Himself; the Lord hears when I call.”This devotion explores how faith clings to God's promises even when surrounded by lies and shame. Christ is our righteousness, and in Him, we are heard, set apart, and never forsaken.Be encouraged today: your prayers do not fall into silence. The Lord hears. Call on Him with confidence!

Surrounded by enemies and abandoned by many, David lifts his eyes and confesses the truth: “But You, O Lord, are a shield about me, my glory, and the lifter of my head.”God surrounds His people with His protecting grace, lifting up those bowed down by fear, shame, or sorrow. Even when earthly status is lost, the believer's glory remains in being known and sustained by the Lord. From His holy hill — the place of His dwelling and reign — the Lord hears and answers.This devotion points us to Christ, who lifts our heads from the cross to the empty tomb.

Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for July 10, 2025. Today's devotion, “Many Are My Foes” from Psalm 3:1–2, reflects David's honest cry in the face of overwhelming adversity. As he fled from Absalom, his own son, David was surrounded by enemies and slander. His foes not only threatened his life but also questioned his salvation: “There is no salvation for him in God.”But David turns not to despair—but to prayer. In the midst of betrayal and fear, he cries to the Lord who hears. This psalm reminds us that even when the voices of doubt rise, God remains faithful. And ultimately, it points us to Jesus, who was surrounded by enemies on the cross yet triumphed over sin and death for us.

A Karlovy Vary-i filmfesztiválon versenyez Fliefauf Bence démonos áldoksija, a Jimmy Jaguár. A helyszínen beszélgettünk a film két női főszereplőjével, Jakab Julival és Balla Eszterrel, illetve a producerrel, Mécs Mónikával. Juli elmesélte, hogy milyen volt kilenc hónapos terhesen kocsivezetés közben húsz percig ordibálni, illetve megtudtuk tőle, hogy a filmkészítés nagyon komoly dolog, de a gyerekszülés még egy hajszállal annál is komolyabb. Eszterrel egy 40 perces életútinterjút rögtönöztünk, amiben természetesen szó esett a Moszkva térről és a Kontroll Macilányáról is, meg arról, hogy mi az, amit csak Fliegauf tud kihozni belőle. Mónikával is végigvettük karrierje nagy pillanatait, például, hogy milyen érzés volt megnyerni az Arany Medvét a Testről és lélekrőllel, illetve aztán nem megnyerni az Oscart ugyanezzel a filmmel.Készítette: Varga FerencZene: Hegyi OlivérJó szórakozást az adáshoz, és ha tetszik, kérlek⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠támogasd a Filmklub podcastot a Patreonon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, egy dollár is nagy segítség!

Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for July 9, 2025. Today's reflection, “Kiss the Son: Finding Refuge in Christ” from Psalm 2:10–12, presents God's gracious call to a rebellious world.

All who take shelter in Him are blessed, for His wrath and love meet at the cross. Let us rejoice in this gift and proclaim it boldly.

Christ's rule is not limited to Israel but extends to the ends of the earth, with every people and nation as His inheritance.

Though the kings and rulers of the world rage against the Lord and His Anointed, the Lord remains unmoved, seated in heaven, and even laughs at their foolishness. His holy derision reveals the futility of rebellion against His eternal authority. God has set His King — Christ Jesus — on Zion, His holy hill, and no earthly power can overthrow Him. This is our firm confidence: Christ reigns unchallenged and gathers, preserves, and defends His people with His unshakable Word and promise.

Today's meditation on Psalm 2:1–3, titled “Nations Rage Against God's Plan,” explores humanity's tragic and futile rebellion against the Lord and His Anointed.

As believers, we find true freedom in God's loving cords — His Word, forgiveness, and grace.

Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for July 5, 2025. Today's meditation on Psalm 1:4–6, titled “The Wicked Shall Not Stand,” contrasts the fate of the righteous and the wicked. While those rooted in God's Word flourish like a fruitful tree, the wicked are like chaff blown away by the wind, with no foundation or endurance before God's judgment.

Yet God knows the way of the righteous — those redeemed by Christ, rooted in His grace, and preserved by His mercy. Find encouragement to hold firm to Christ, whose saving work secures your place in God's congregation forever.
