Saturday is review day on The Daily Promise. Every Saturday, we review the promises of the week so we can allow them to go deep into our hearts and lives. Here are the promises we covered this week. John 15:11 – Your Joy is Full. Romans 8:26 - The Holy Spirit Prays for You. Isaiah 41:10 – I Will Not Fear Because God is With Me. Matthew 10:29-31 - God Knows and Cares About Me. Psalm 119:11 – God's Word Gives Victory Over Sin.
Read OnlineHe appointed the Twelve: Simon, whom he named Peter; James, son of Zebedee, and John the brother of James, whom he named Boanerges, that is, sons of thunder; Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus; Thaddeus, Simon the Cananean, and Judas Iscariot who betrayed him. Mark 3:16–19Though Jesus called many disciples, He chose Twelve, representing the Twelve Tribes of Israel, and entrusted them with a unique mission. He named them Apostles, meaning “one who is sent” or “messenger,” and gave them His authority as the first bishops of His Church. Among them was the betrayer, Judas Iscariot. Did Jesus make a mistake when He called Judas to be an Apostle? Certainly not. Jesus' actions were perfect in every way and fully in accord with the Father's will. Why did He pick Judas, even though He knew he would betray Him?Saint Thomas Aquinas teaches that Jesus possessed the Beatific Vision and infused knowledge from the moment of His conception (Summa Theologiae, III.9.2&3). Therefore, He comprehended all things with God's eternal knowledge, including the future role each Apostle would play. When He chose Judas Iscariot, He knew the path Judas would take, yet He called him anyway.An important theological principle to understand is that God's foreknowledge of our future does not interfere with our free will. Some philosophers have argued that God's foreknowledge means the path we walk is predetermined and cannot change. While it is true that what God knows will not change, it is also true that His knowledge does not force or determine what we freely choose. God's knowledge simply transcends and encompasses all time.When pondering the sorrowful betrayal of one of Jesus' intimate friends, there are important lessons we can learn from this permissive act of evil. God permits evil because He permits good. If He were to prohibit evil—an act of free will—He would be prohibiting the use of free will itself, thwarting our ability to freely love. This reveals the incredible gift that God has given us: the ability to love or not. This gift is essential to who we are, enabling us to share in God's abundant and overflowing love and mercy, freely bestowed and freely received.God's permissive will also reflects the mysterious relationship between Divine Providence and human action. God, Who is All-Powerful, can bring good even out of the gravest sins. This is not a credit to us but to God's might. In the case of Judas, God used his betrayal to set in motion the very act of redemption. The same is true in our lives.When we experience betrayal, or betray another, God is able to bring good out of that act. If we are guilty of betrayal and fail to repent, God's justice will prevail, and we will be condemned. Though our sins against others are damaging, God can use even our sins for good in their lives. He can foster mercy and forgiveness in others' hearts and unite them more fully with Himself, Who was betrayed.When another sins against us, the impulse to judge and condemn is a common temptation. Yet, the lesson we must learn from Judas is recorded beautifully by Saint Paul: “We know that all things work for good for those who love God, who are called according to his purpose” (Romans 8:28). Even injustice and sins committed against us are not reasons for despair but for hope—hope in the sinner's repentance and hope that God will transform evil into good for those who love Him and unite themselves with Jesus' betrayal by Judas. Reflect today on God's almighty power to work all things for good in your life, even sin. Though the sinner who refuses to repent will experience the fullness of God's justice, profound good can come from our repentance and from imitating Jesus, Who endured cruel betrayal. Trust in His power and allow Him to bring good out of evil in your life. Doing so not only lifts the heavy burden of anger, it also infuses God's perfect charity into any and everything we encounter or endure in life. My triumphant Lord, You were cruelly treated by one of Your closest companions, yet in Your almighty power You transformed that evil, bringing from it the greatest good ever known—our redemption. Please give me the grace to repent when I sin, and when I am sinned against, help me to unite that injustice to the betrayal You endured so that Your grace will triumph. Jesus, I trust in You.

Today's Promise: Matthew 10:29-31 Have you ever felt lost in the crowd, wondering if God really sees you or cares about the details of your life? With billions of people in the world, it's easy to feel small, overlooked, or insignificant. In this hope-filled episode, we lean into one of Jesus' most reassuring promises from Matthew 10:29–31 and discover a powerful truth: you are fully known and deeply loved by God. Jesus reminds us that not even a sparrow falls to the ground without the Father's notice. God has every hair on your head numbered. If God cares about something that small, how much more does He care about your worries, struggles, and unanswered questions? This episode will encourage you to bring not only life's big decisions to God, but also the everyday details you may think don't matter. Be reminded today that nothing about your life is insignificant to your Heavenly Father. You are seen, valued, and treasured by the Lord of Glory.

God supplies every believer's true needs through grace, doctrine, and faith-rest. This episode explains how God faithfully supplies every legitimate need in the believer's life. Drawing from Philippians 4:19 and many supporting Scriptures, it clarifies the difference between needs and wants, the priority of growing in the grace and knowledge of Jesus Christ, and the importance of prayer under the filling of the Holy Spirit. You'll also learn the danger of inaccurate faith and false teaching, why God's Word—not emotion or legalism—is the only reliable source of truth, and how the faith-rest drill stabilizes the soul. Discover how God already knows your needs before you ask, why His compassion is renewed every morning, and how trusting His perfect plan brings strength, clarity, and peace.Download Transcript: https://rhem.pub/1059-transcript

December 8, 2025 Hag. 1:1-15; Ps. 139:1-12; Prov. 29:15-17; Rev. 11:1-14
In Luke 16:14-18, Jesus rebukes those whose love of money leads to playing fast and loose with the law as they justify themselves in the sight of men rather than please God. I. Jesus rebukes those who scoff at His teaching because they are lovers of money (v. 14). Application: If you love money more than Jesus, you will scoff at his teaching. II. Jesus rebukes those who justify themselves before men who see only the external, with acts that are detestable to God, who see the heart (v. 15). Application: Don't fear men or seek their favor. Live your life Coram Deo, "before the face of God," so you pursue what pleases Him. III. Jesus reminds those who love money and justify themselves before men that: A.The Old Testament is fulfilled in Him, and they must enter in through the proclamation of the good news of His kingdom (vs. 16–17). B. Christ, the King of His kingdom, has the authority to interpret and apply the law as well as demand righteous obedience to it (v. 18). Application: Pursue righteousness as you seek to understand and obey what Christ commands.

Today’s Bible Verse:"For he knows how we are formed, he remembers that we are dust." — Psalm 103:14 Psalm 103:14 reminds us that God understands our limits better than we do. He isn’t shocked by our weaknesses, our exhaustion, or the moments we fall short. Instead, He responds with compassion, knowing exactly how fragile and human we are. This verse lifts the pressure to be perfect and invites us to rest in a God who meets us with mercy, not disappointment, every time we reach the end of ourselves. Meet Today’s Host: Carol Ogle McCracken
When life feels heavy and you've done all you can — give it to God. He sees your pain, He hears your cry, and He's already working behind the scenes. Sometimes the greatest act of faith is to leave it in God's hands and trust His timing.If you're struggling, remember this Joe Kirby wants to remind you in his cup of Joe podcast that you free your mind, when you give it to God.

Saturday is review day on The Daily Promise. Every Saturday, we review the promises of the week so we can allow them to go deep into our hearts and lives. Here are the promises we covered this week. Isaiah 54:10 – God's Love Never Changes. 2 Peter 1:4 – God's Promises are Precious and Great. Jeremiah 17:7-8 – Trusting the Lord Brings Blessings. 1 Peter 5:6 – Humble Yourself and God Will Exalt You. Matthew 6:7-8 – God Knows Your Needs Before You Ask.
Today's Promise: Matthew 6:7-8 Jesus paused during the Sermon on the Mount to teach an essential lesson: how to pray. In Today's Promise, we'll explore Matthew 6:7-8, where Jesus reveals God knows your needs before you ask. So, if God already knows, why pray? Because prayer isn't about informing Him, but it's about inviting Him into your life. In this episode, you'll discover two simple keys to effective prayer: Keep your prayers simple. God isn't moved by long or fancy words. He listens to a sincere heart. Keep your prayers sincere. Talk to God as your loving Father, not as a distant deity. God knows your pain, your needs, and your desires. As a good Father, He delights in giving good gifts to His children. When you come before Him, speak honestly, open your heart, and trust that He hears you. Tune in to be encouraged, strengthened, and reminded that prayer is not a ritual; it's a relationship.

Believing for More | #5 | Belonging: God Knows the Heart | 10/5/25
Passage: John 2:23-25 Speaker: Stephen Chen
As we continue our "The Word Speaks" series, Susan is joined in the studio by Brand Franklin, executive director of Fresh Roots Family Counseling, to talk about his two favorite scriptures and how they remind him that GOD KNOWS.
This week on the podcast, Pastors Bobby and Jeremy dive deeper into Sunday's message. They share some of their favorite moments, unpack a few details that didn't make it into the sermon, and talk about what it really means that God knows our names—and how that truth can shape our everyday lives.
This Sunday, Pastor Blake reflected on a turning point in Israel's story: their cry for help in the midst of deep suffering. As the Israelites groaned under oppression, God heard, remembered His covenant, and saw their pain. These verses remind us that even when God feels silent, He is not absent. He hears, He remembers, and He is already moving toward redemption. Want to watch a version of this message? Check out our live broadcast archive at www.declarationchurch.net/live.
In the Bible, God sometimes tests his people to see how they will respond. Why does he do this if he already knows every heart?
JayyRobb – The Voice of Triumph, Truth, and Transformation! From surviving the impossible to inspiring a generation, JayyRobb is not just an artist, he's a movement. Hailing from Kissimmee, Florida by way of Brooklyn and North Carolina, JayyRobb defies every label that tried to define him. He's an Inspirational Rap Artist, dynamic public speaker, and spiritual storyteller who uses his voice to turn pain into purpose, tragedy into triumph, and lyrics into lifelines. JayyRobb's music is built on a foundation of faith and resilience. He's not your typical Christian rapper—he's a bold, truth-telling voice for those walking through fire, fusing hard-earned wisdom with gritty beats and raw, unfiltered testimony. His style is uniquely his own, driven by a deep walk with God and a passion to uplift, not preach. Whether he's on stage or in the studio, JayyRobb brings healing, honesty, and hope. Born James Robert Wexler, JayyRobb is a living miracle. Pronounced dead six times before the age of two, he beat medical odds, overcame street violence (including being shot at age 10), survived the loss of loved ones, and battled deep depression and homelessness. Each chapter of pain only sharpened his purpose. After surrendering his life to Christ, JayyRobb chose music and ministry over the streets, and now pours his experiences into every verse with authenticity and purpose. With powerful singles like “God's Got Me” ft. LeeLee, “Tame Da Tongue,” and new releases “Take A Step Back” and “My Past Life,” JayyRobb's highly anticipated album “Blessed” is set to solidify his place as a transformative artist. No stranger to the spotlight, JayyRobb has also showcased his talent as an actor, appearing in major productions such as Deep Blue Sea, American Gladiator, Sharknado 3, and classic Nickelodeon shows. His natural charisma and presence light up every screen, making him a standout both in music and film. But through it all, his mission remains the same: As JayyRobb says: “If I can change just one person's world, that's enough to make it all worth it.” JayyRobb is proof that broken pieces can build powerful legacies. His life, his music, and his mission are all testaments to the power of perseverance, faith, and fire-forged destiny. The world needs more artists like JayyRobb—unapologetic, unfiltered, and unstoppable.

We all have friends and acquaintances. Some acquaintances may be a friend of a friend, so we don’t know them very well.
