Have you ever experienced a power outage? You pull out your favorite flashlight, only to discover the batteries are dead. Bummer, am I right?How about light bulbs? For some reason, they all seem to go at the same time, leaving you in the shadows and looking for that flashlight—you know, the one with the dead batteries!Light bulbs burn out, tires go flat, umbrellas turn inside out on a windy day, and batteries die. Many of the things we use on a frequent basis are designed to be temporary—and sometimes they let us down when we need them most.Lamentations 3:22–23 says, “Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning, great is your faithfulness.”God's Holy Word, the Bible, promises that His compassion never fails. Each day is a new opportunity to experience God's love and benefit from His grace, and His faithfulness to us that will never end. Not because we've earned the Lord's favor—simply because He loves us.Let's pray.Heavenly Father, your mercy is new every morning, and your steadfast love for us is amazing. Thank you for loving us so much, and thank you that we can depend on you, always. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world!

December 28, 2025 Recounting the Mercies of God - Isaiah 63:7-14 by Sermons of Pastor Paul Kaldahl

“Come now, let us settle the matter,” says the LORD. “Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool." Isaiah 1:18 Morning by morning, the frost of yesterday melts in the warmth of Your compassion. The stains and shame of the past do not survive the sunrise. Though my sins were scarlet, You whisper “Come,” and the crimson fades to white as snow. Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me. As Naaman stepped down into Jordan's waters in humble obedience and rose restored, so I step into Your Word and Your will — simple, trusting, and expectant. The Jordan is a threshold, the night a passage, and the dawn Your mercy's announcement. What I could not cleanse by effort, You cleanse by grace. What I could not silence by striving, You quiet with the snowfall of mercy. Psalm 51:7 says, "Cleanse me with hyssop, and I will be clean; wash me, and I will be whiter than snow." Let the old year release its grip; let every accusation be hushed under fresh grace. Roll away reproach as at Gilgal; dress me in the robe of righteousness; crown me with steadfast love and mercy. Order my steps in Your word. Make Your lamp a fire to my path. Teach me to leave only grace-shaped footprints across the day You set before me. Because, Morning by morning new mercies I see: New patience for the unfinished places.Morning by morning new mercies I see, new strength for the unseen battles.Morning by morning new mercies I see; New joy that sorrow cannot steal.Morning by morning new mercies I see; New peace that outlives the storm.Morning by morning new mercies I see; New holiness born not of resolve alone, but of Your Spirit within. Lord, before the year 2025 ends, let me emerge clean — thoughts rinsed, motives sifted, hands made ready for good works. As we cross into 2026, set my footprint on grace. Let forgiveness be my trail, gratitude my pace, compassion my companion. Establish my goings. Keep my heart soft, my tongue gentle, my eyes lifted.  Lamentations 3:22–23 says, "Because of the Lord's great love, we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; Great is your faithfulness." Prayer for the Day!Heavenly Father, thank you for the daily mercy you release. I receive Your mercy at daybreak and Your faithfulness by night. I renounce every old stain and take hold of the new song You place in my mouth. May my life be a quiet field after snowfall — pure, expectant, unmarked — awaiting the adventures of Your leading. In the name of Jesus — Lamb who washes me, Shepherd who guides me, Morning Star who heralds my day by day — amen.

Moga - Mercies Of God Association with Dr. Peter Nortier, Ultimate End Of Christianity As Portrayed In Esther

Her neighbors and relatives heard that the Lord had shown her great mercy, and they shared her joy. — Luke 1:58 The story of Jesus' birth is intertwined with another miraculous birth—that of John, who was born to Elizabeth and Zechariah in their old age. Though Zechariah did not believe at first that this could happen, God fulfilled his promise. And when Zechariah named the child John, as the angel had instructed, he was able to speak again (see Luke 1:11-20; Dec. 4). The name John means “God is gracious.”While we might be used to thinking of God's grace in the birth and life of Jesus, we may also ask about other ways we see God's grace at work in this season. Maybe you have seen a strained relationship restored, or an illness healed. Maybe you have seen temptations lifted, or fears relieved. Can we name such gifts as illustrations of God's grace?Not only did Zechariah and Elizabeth receive God's mercy; they invited their neighbors and relatives to share in their joy in what God had done for them. During the Christmas season, many of us have opportunities to gather with family and friends. Do we also take time with others to share with them our experiences of God's mercy to us?Christmas is a season for reflecting on God's grace and mercy to his people. May you name, and celebrate, that mercy today. Holy God, you surprise us again and again with your grace. Open our eyes to what you are doing, and loosen our tongues to speak of your faithfulness. For Jesus' sake, Amen.

In Romans 15:14–33, Paul shows that God's mercies don't just forgive us—they notify us of our mission. In this message we explore how God's grace shapes our purpose in writing, serving, and praying, and how you can live on mission right where you are.

Let's open to the Psalms as we join our teacher in The Truth Pulpit.

How we begin our mornings shapes the rest of our day. In our daily prayer and devotional, we are encouraged to reflect on our morning rhythms: Do we tumble out of bed overwhelmed and already anxious, or do we begin the day aware of God’s mercies—fresh, new, and waiting for us at sunrise? Amanda Idleman challenges us to welcome God into our day before anything else. Simple steps—pausing to pray, kneeling beside the bed, reading Scripture before checking messages—invite God’s presence into the earliest moments of our morning. Establishing small but intentional rituals in our homes, such as praying with family before leaving the house, sets a foundation of gratitude and connection with God. God’s mercy meets us daily, but we experience it most fully when we slow down and make space for Him. From the breath in our lungs to the gift of another sunrise, our lives are miracles sustained by His grace. Creating sacred rhythms—prayer, Scripture meditation, meaningful family practices—helps us see His goodness woven into each new day. Today's Bible Reading:“The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.” – Lamentations 3:22-23 Takeaway Truths God offers new mercies every single morning—fresh grace for every new beginning. Morning habits rooted in prayer and Scripture awaken our hearts to God’s goodness. Intentional rhythms help us recognize that each day is a miracle sustained by His love. Let’s Pray Father, we thank You that You promise to provide new mercies for us every single morning. Help us to grab onto Your mercy and bring it into our everyday lives. Show us the best rhythms and routines we can implement to allow our souls and homes the best chance to connect with You each new day. Grant us the wisdom we need to succeed in embracing Your joy and relishing Your mercy. Let gratitude be a part of our morning routine. Help us not to take for granted the gift that each new day is. Nothing about our lives is an accident. Help me to embrace the purpose You have for my life. Help me to share Your love and grace with those around me. Allow me to be a model of Your mercy to those in my home who watch me start my day. Let my words be ones that point them to You and remind them that You are good. Show us Your ways, Jesus, and teach us Your path. We need You every day. Amen.

Text: Romans 12:1-2   The Mercies of God is the Basis For the Challenge of Total Commitment GRACE, is when we get what we don't deserve. MERCY, is when we don't get what we DO deserve. Total Commitment Means Being Totally Transformed. The word we get transformed is where we get the word metamorphosis. It's continual and gradual. We should allow the Holy Spirit to help. (2 Corinthians 3:18) In order to know the will of God, we must surrender to that will.

Overview: This week invites a deep turning inward. The New Moon in Libra opens a portal for recalibrating relationships and restoring inner balance after months of disruption. As Neptune re-enters Pisces, we begin the final chapter of a 14-year collective dream cycle—time to dissolve what's illusion and harvest what's true from our spiritual and creative evolution since 2011. The Sun's move into Scorpio and a cascade of aspects between Jupiter, Chiron, and Pluto intensify the alchemical work—shadow integration, emotional honesty, and soulful truth-telling. By the weekend, Mercury trines Saturn, grounding the revelations of the week into practical wisdom.Tuesday, October 21 – New Moon in Libra This New Moon at 28° Libra invites you to seed new relational patterns founded on authentic harmony, not people-pleasing. Libra's evolutionary task is to balance the dance between self and other—how to stay centered in your truth while staying connected. After recent Pluto-Venus shifts, this lunation renews your capacity for grace under transformation. Reflection: What new relational agreement—inner or outer—wants to be born from truth, not habit?Wednesday, October 22 – Neptune re-enters Pisces; Sun enters ScorpioNeptune's return to Pisces (through January 2026) completes the vast oceanic cycle that began in 2011. This is the closing dream—time to discern which visions still hold soul truth and which dissolve into mist. The Sun's shift into Scorpio deepens this inquiry, illuminating what must be released for renewal. The veils thin, inviting compassionate surrender and courageous descent.Reflection: What illusions are ready to dissolve so your truer vision can emerge?Thursday, October 23 – Jupiter in Cancer square Chiron in Aries Expanding beyond old emotional defenses, this tension invites healing around belonging and self-protection. Jupiter amplifies the need for emotional security, while Chiron exposes the wounds that prevent full self-trust. Growth arises from vulnerability—learning to nurture without over-giving.Reflection: Where does your growth now require tenderness instead of toughness? Friday, October 24 – Sun in Scorpio square Pluto in AquariusThis potent square exposes the power dynamics in your relationships and your psyche. Transformation accelerates when you face control, fear, or resistance with honesty. Pluto in Aquarius asks for collective evolution; the Sun in Scorpio demands emotional integrity. Together, they burn away falseness so something new can be born from the ashes.Reflection: What truth wants to surface, no matter how uncomfortable, to set you free?Saturday, October 25 – Mercury in Scorpio trine Saturn in PiscesAfter an intense week, this trine grounds insights into words and form. Deep communication and intuitive clarity become available. Saturn helps you translate the ineffable into structure—journaling, ritual, or commitments that honor your truth.Reflection: What truth or insight is ready to be named and anchored into practice? Podcast poem: For Those Who Have Far to Travel by Jan RichardsonSupport the showGo to Sheila's website for information for transformational resources: https://www.ontheedgesofchange.com/home-page This episode was co-created with generative AI, engaged as a soul-aligned ally in service of transformation.

Great Is Thy Faithfulness: Morning by Morning, New Mercies #RTTBROS #Nightlight"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." — Lamentations 3:22-23Some of the most beautiful songs come from the darkest places. Take the hymn "Great Is Thy Faithfulness." You'd think it was written during some mountaintop experience, some season of overwhelming blessing. But the scripture it's based on, Lamentations 3, was written by Jeremiah while watching Jerusalem burn.Let me paint you the picture: Jeremiah had spent forty years warning God's people to turn from their sin. Nobody listened. Now he's sitting in the rubble of his destroyed city, everything he'd known and loved reduced to ashes. And in the middle of that absolute devastation, he writes these words about God's faithfulness.Thomas Chisholm, who wrote the hymn in 1923, understood something of life's difficulties. He struggled with poor health most of his life and wasn't writing from a place of prosperity or ease. He was writing from lived experience, from having watched God prove faithful morning after morning, year after year, even when circumstances were hard.Here's what I love about this hymn: it's not about dramatic miracles or huge interventions. Look at the words: "Morning by morning new mercies I see." Not once in a lifetime. Not occasionally when things get really bad. Morning by morning. Every single day. It's the faithfulness of God in the ordinary moments, the daily provision, the steady presence that never wavers.I think sometimes we're looking for God to show up in the earthquake, the fire, the mighty wind, and we miss Him in the still small voice. We're waiting for the Red Sea to part when God's already providing manna for today."All I have needed Thy hand hath provided." That's a testimony to God's faithful provision of exactly what we need, when we need it. Not always what we want. Not always what we ask for. But what we need.I'm reminded of God's promise to the Israelites in the wilderness. He gave them manna every morning, enough for that day. God was teaching them to trust Him day by day, morning by morning. That's hard for us, isn't it? We want next week figured out, next month secured, next year planned. But God says, "Trust Me for today."Jeremiah was right when he wrote those words in Lamentations, and Chisholm was right when he turned them into this hymn, and it's still true today. God's faithfulness hasn't diminished one bit. His mercies are still new every morning. His compassions still don't fail. And great, truly great, is His faithfulness.So whatever you're facing today, remember: you don't need strength for next week's trial. You just need what God has for you this morning. And guess what? It's already there, fresh and new, waiting for you like manna on the ground.Prayer:Father, thank You that Your faithfulness never wavers, never fails. Help us to see Your mercies new every morning, to recognize Your provision in the ordinary moments, and to trust Your faithfulness even when circumstances are hard. Give us eyes to see all You've already given, and hearts that rest in Your unchanging nature. In Jesus' name, Amen.Be sure to Like, Share, Follow and subscribe it helps get the word out.https://linktr.ee/rttbros

In this episode of The GoodKind Podcast, hosts Clayton Greene, Amy Kavanaugh, and Chris Pappalardo talk about something every family faces — getting sick. From sniffles to stomach bugs, they explore how illness disrupts routines, work, and family rhythms — and what it reveals about rest, responsibility, and our human limits.The conversation moves from hilarious sick-day stories to deeper reflections on how the Bible talks about illness, what it means to truly rest, and how to balance care, community, and calling when someone is under the weather. They even debate whether sickness is spiritual, physical, or just part of being human. With a mix of laughter and insight, this episode reminds listeners that slowing down — even when forced to — can be a gift.TakeawaysThe “how sick is too sick” question is universal — and complicated.Our attitudes about illness often reflect how we view work, identity, and responsibility.The Bible doesn't ignore sickness — it connects physical and spiritual wholeness.True rest sometimes means letting go of control and trusting others to carry on.Parenting teaches triage — knowing what's urgent and what can wait.Caring for a sick child can become a moment of unexpected connection and grace.It's okay to actually enjoy a sick day if it helps you rest and recover.Learning to pause reminds us: we're not indispensable, and that's freeingResourcesThe Anxious Generation by Jonathan HaidtThe Hidden Genius of the Life We're Looking For by Andy CrouchChatter by Ethan KrossFranz Anton Mesmer (the origin of “mesmerize” — yes, really)

Pastor Darrell preached a second in a sermon series on Luke 21:5-38. He encouraged us to trust what God's Word says He accomplishes through severe mercies and the divine providences of the Lord. 

Weirdly, amazon added the subtitle "A Detective Mystery" to Small Mercies. When one of the best things about this book is that it's NOT a detective at the center. You all know this genre isn't my usual fare, but Lehane's historical focus, together with his excellent prose, and dialogue (plus plot, duh) made this so satisfying to dive into.

This week, Pastor Robby reminds us that yesterday is not today. The things that defined us yesterday don’t have to define us today, and the things that were bad yesterday can be used for good today. In Lamentations 3:22-23, we read that God’s mercies begin afresh each morning. One second is all it takes for the clock to flip from 11:59:59 p.m. to 12:00:00 a.m. and for our lives to change forever. This encouraging word uses two different healings from the New Testament — the blind man in John 9 and the lame man in John 5 — to point us back to the source of these changes: Jesus. Encountering “That Man” is what causes the clock to flip, and it’s not just a one-time occurrence. He will meet us over and over, showing up when we need Him most and revealing different aspects of His character.
