Dallas • Lagos • São Paulo • Singapore • Auckland COURAGE • STRENGTH • PRESENCE morning prayer for courage and strength • trusting God through difficult days • Christian prayer for confidence and peace • finding hope when life feels overwhelming Isaiah 43:2 (NIV) “When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you.” Some mornings begin with excitement and expectation. Other mornings begin with responsibilities already waiting at the door. There may be conversations ahead that feel difficult, decisions that feel important, or situations that remain unresolved. Before the day has fully started, it is possible to feel the weight of everything that lies ahead. Many people are waking up with that feeling today. Yet the promise of God is not that we will never face challenges. The promise is that we will not face them alone. Isaiah reminds us that when we pass through deep waters, God remains with us. When life feels uncertain and circumstances seem larger than our strength, His presence remains steady and His faithfulness remains sure. The Lord who carried you yesterday has not changed overnight. The God who helped you through previous seasons is still walking beside you today. Before you reach the challenges ahead, He is already there. Before you speak a word, He understands. Before you take the next step, He is already guiding your path. Father, thank You that Your presence goes with me into every part of this day. Thank You that I never walk alone and never carry life's responsibilities without Your help. Jesus, when I feel overwhelmed, remind me that You are near. When uncertainty tries to steal my peace, help me trust Your promises. Give me courage for every conversation, wisdom for every decision, and confidence for every step I take today. Holy Spirit, fill my heart with peace and strengthen me where I feel weak. Help me focus on Your presence rather than my worries and trust that You are leading me forward with grace and wisdom. Across the world, from Dallas to Lagos, from São Paulo to Singapore and Auckland, may hearts be strengthened by the assurance that God is with them and will carry them through this day. Jesús, camina conmigo hoy. Jesus, caminha comigo hoje. Jesus, samahan Mo ako ngayong araw. Father, thank You that whatever this day holds, You are already there. Amen.

The Day God's Patience Ran Out. One day the Sun will set on this Day of Grace. Someone's non-decision for Christ will be crystalized as a decision against Christ. Unbelievers will have to lament with Jeremiah that "Harvest is past, Summer is ended, and we are not saved." Today our study of the book of Revelation takes us to the last of the Last Judgments. And there's an announcement about the future of the program coming, after we hear from Jim.

Hebrews 12 talks about a "great cloud of witness" who were slain and horribly persecuted for their faith who are in heaven watching us. Pastors killed for preaching what others today are afraid to mention. People who have watched their children slaughtered for teaching them the Lord's prayer while they won't even read the Bible to them. May God wake up this generation.
Sarah Brown teaches on waiting on God because He knows best!
When you can sin without conviction, ignore God without discomfort, and rebel without restraint, you are in a dangerous place. In this message, I'm breaking down what it means when God “gives people over,” how repeated disobedience hardens the heart, and why the silence of God is one of the scariest judgments in Scripture.This is a warning for anyone who has been resisting conviction, playing with sin, or drifting from the voice of the Holy Spirit. There comes a point where people no longer feel the check, the sorrow, or the weight of conviction—and that is not freedom, that is judgment.To sow into this stream Monthly/ONE time/ https://bit.ly/2NRIBcM PAYPAL https://shorturl.at/eJY57www.Isaiahsaldivar.com www.Instagram.com/Isaiahsaldivar www.Facebook.com/Isaiahsaldivar www.youtube.com/IsaiahsaldivarOrder My New Book, “How To Cast Out Demons,” Here! https://a.co/d/87NYEfcTo sow www.Isaiahsaldivar.com/partner

The Day God Was Only Found Outside The Camp
Quote of The Day: “God is not honored by ignorance. To love Him well, we must learn diligently.” — R.C. Sproul Hosts: Kanyinsola Omojola, Goodness Ezeh
Quote of The Day: “God's presence is not discovered by effort, but by surrender.” — Andrew Murray Hosts: Kanyinsola Omojola, Goodness Ezeh
The sermon centers on the profound moment when Jesus wept at Lazarus's tomb, revealing not only His deep emotional connection to human suffering but also His sorrow over the spiritual blindness and unbelief that permeate humanity. Through the lens of John 11:35, it emphasizes that Jesus' tears were not merely for Lazarus but for the broader tragedy of people who hear God's voice yet fail to believe, trapped in despair, religious routine, or self-reliance. The message underscores that God's timing is perfect, His power is sufficient, and His call to life is always available—even when circumstances seem hopeless. It calls listeners to respond in faith, to reject the voices of despair and unbelief, and to embrace the transformative power of Christ's resurrection life, which is both present and eternal. Ultimately, the sermon invites a personal, heartfelt response: to admit spiritual death, believe in Christ's sacrifice, and declare Him Lord, trusting that God will unwrap and set free those who hear His voice.
Few things help us grow in our trust in Jesus like knowing that our lives “under the sun” will be full of wars within and without until the day we go to glory. These oppositions and failures and setbacks will plague us to a certain degree, until the day of our inheritance. Far from reaching some supposed state of Christian perfection in this life, we seek to live as faithfully, deliberately and sinlessly as possible until the sure perfection of eternity. We are free now, but only in part. Final freedom comes the Day God becomes ours in sight.

Alec and Nick discuss the algorithm as a mysterious force within the production and consumption of music. Despite being used daily in our various contendings with digital platforms and culture, the term is often misunderstood. The conversation loosely defines the term as "some kind of procedure," embarking on a survey of chance (Cage), serialism (Schoenberg), Bach & Hindustani classical music, scales and modes, The League of Automatic Music Composers, Laurie Spiegel, newer electronic music, and more—as well as philosophical debates between form and process. Is an algorithm a dialectic? Do algorithms produce form, or does form precede an algorithmic process? Ultimately, the discussion draws latent comparisons to the idea of musical truth and an algorithm itself, and outlines a reversal of algorithm as a set of procedures that would create and bring music into a being, to a process that now entraps and contains it. The episode concludes with a discussion of algorithms that bring us to a contemporary visual culture of music, tying in The Velvet Underground & Warhol, Rosalía, Björk, and more.
Quote of The Day: “God is too good to be unkind and He is too wise to be mistaken. And when we cannot trace His hand, we must trust His heart.” — Charles H. Spurgeon Hosts: Kanyinsola Omojola, Goodness Ezeh
In this raw and convicting conversation, Omar Eltakori joins Kap Chatfield to expose the war between calling and clout. From building one of YouTube's biggest creator communities to facing the breaking point of burnout, Omar opens up about how God interrupted his hustle to redefine success through surrender.Together they unpack what it means to create with God instead of for approval diving deep into identity, obedience, and the tension between ambition and assignment.If you've ever felt the pull between building your platform and obeying your purpose, this episode will shake your perspective and show you how to build with heaven's blueprint.

Quote of The Day: “God wants you to come to a point in life where you live to make a difference and not just make a living.” Hosts: Kanyinsola Omojola, Goodness Ezeh
Ever wonder how long God's patience lasts? Ezekiel chapters 20-21 reveals that pivotal moment when divine patience reached its limit with ancient Israel.The imagery is striking—God drawing His sword against His own people after centuries of disobedience. "Behold, I am against you," He declares, words that stand in stark contrast to His earlier promises to be with them. This reversal marks one of the most significant turning points in biblical history.We explore the vivid metaphors God uses to communicate His impending judgment: a consuming fire in the forests of Negev and a polished sword "flashing like lightning." These aren't just poetic figures but prophecies that found literal fulfillment. The once-lush landscape described in Joshua's time as "flowing with milk and honey" transformed into the arid desert we see today—physical evidence of divine judgment that has endured for millennia.Most significantly, this judgment permanently altered Israel's national identity. The Babylonian captivity ended the line of Jewish kings, and even after their return from exile, they would never again enjoy true independence under their own monarch. The scepter departed, fulfilling ancient prophecies and setting the stage for the future Messiah—the only one who can legitimately claim David's throne.This episode challenges popular notions of God's character. Yes, He is loving, merciful, and patient, but these passages reveal He will not tolerate persistent rebellion forever. When judgment finally comes, it arrives with the speed of lightning, comprehensive and inescapable.What does this mean for us today? God's patience remains vast but not endless. His love doesn't negate His justice. This sobering reality calls us to examine our own lives and recognize that, sooner or later, all accounts must be settled with the divine King.Support the showThank you for listening!!

The doctor said, “The vision in your bad eye has gone from 20/100 to 20/10. And the other eye has gone from 20/40 to 20/20.” Stunned, he asked, “How did this happen?” ---------- I've known Ginny Pippin for nearly 20 years, but nothing prepared me for the story she shares in this episode. While attending a training class at the Encounter School of Ministry, Ginny sat before the tabernacle as her classmates practiced prayers for inner and physical healing. One student, simply following a script, asked if she wanted prayer for anything else. Ginny quietly said, “Yes—my vision.” What her classmate didn't know was that a botched cataract surgery had left Ginny with severely compromised eyesight. In this episode, Ginny explains the dramatic moments that followed. This miracle is only part of Ginny's story. Years earlier, while teaching the Ignatian Exercises, she endured a dark night of the soul—believing there was no God. She shares the powerful moment that lifted her from that despair, and how the same God later restored her sight. Our God is still healing today.

This episode of Wretched Radio looks at the true meaning of the cross and its pivotal role in Christianity. Todd Friel examines the agony and purpose of Jesus' sacrifice, exploring why it pleased God to have His Son endure such brutal suffering. It's not about feeling good or finding happiness—it's about recognizing the immense cost of salvation and the incredible love God has for sinners. Tune in to reflect on the cross, examine your relationship with Christ, and discover why understanding His death is key to transforming your life today. ___ Thanks for listening!

The shepherds visit the family and report these wonderful things. After eight days, Jesus' family takes Him to Jerusalem to present Him to the Lord at the temple. A righteous man named Simeon prophesies that Jesus would be a light even to the Gentiles. Twelve years later, the family comes to Jerusalem for the Passover. When they leave for home, Jesus stays behind and astonishes the teachers in the temple. His parents return for Him, but He explains He must be in His Father's house. Jesus returns to Nazareth with his parents after the Jerusalem event. His parents did not understand what was coming, but His mother treasured all of this in her heart. She knew how special He was. This chapter is filled with prophecy and proclamations about the greatness of Jesus. We should treasure all of this in our hearts as well. The angels appear and praise God for the “peace on earth” that Jesus would bring. In the temple, Simeon holds Jesus in his arms and says to God, “My eyes have seen Your salvation.” They believed He was God's gift to change the world. We know of His birth, His death, and His resurrection. We should openly proclaim His glory even more! Heavenly Father, world history has two halves: before Jesus was born, and after. Thank You for blessing us to live in the days after Jesus came. So much anticipation and hope were tied to the coming of the Messiah. And by Your grace, He has come. May His worthiness dominate our hearts, and may He be “good news of great joy” every day of our lives. As a child, He wowed the teachers. His wisdom exceeds all men, including us. Help us to humbly be in awe of Him, to study His teachings, and to surrender our lives to follow Him. Thought Questions for the Day: - God's only Son was birthed in a barn. What does that teach you about where and how God might begin wonderful things? - Simeon prophesied Jesus would be the Light for Jews and Gentiles. How has God had your salvation in mind since the beginning? - In His youth, Jesus prioritized the temple over traveling with His family. How does this foreshadow the message of the kingdom?
