Today’s Bible Verse – Proverbs 3: 5-6) (NIV) “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;6 in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.” Feeling uncertain about your next step? Proverbs 3:5–6 reminds us to let go of control and trust God completely. When we surrender our plans and lean on His wisdom—not our own—He promises to direct our paths with clarity, purpose, and peace. This verse is a timeless reminder to seek God first in every decision.

Trusting God to Guide Us Through Painful UnknownsWhen life feels like a dark, uncertain path, Isaiah 42:16 reminds us that we are never walking it alone. In this deeply personal devotional, Jennifer Slattery shares how God restored her marriage and led her and her husband through a season of brokenness they couldn’t fix on their own. Through Scripture and raw testimony, we’re reminded that God will guide you, even when the road ahead is unfamiliar and painful. His promises hold firm—even when we can’t see what’s next. ✨ Highlights: God lights the way in darkness – Isaiah 42:16 offers hope for those feeling lost or stuck. Faith in hard times leads to spiritual healing – God doesn’t just show the way, He walks with us. Healing in marriage is possible – Even toxic patterns can be restored by divine intervention. We don’t have to have it all figured out – Trusting God through uncertainty brings peace and direction. God’s promises are personal – He meets us in our pain and leads us forward with grace.

Title: From Emptiness to OverflowSeries: The Miracles of Jesus (Message 26)Date: Sunday, July 27, 2025Speaker: Pastor Verna DeHartWhen you feel exhausted, empty, or stuck—Jesus shows up.In this moving message, Pastor Verna dives into the second miraculous catch of fish, revealing how God transforms failure into overflow when we simply obey His word. Through Scripture, you'll discover how Jesus steps into our disappointment, provides beyond our imagination, and restores us before ever confronting our mistakes.

The God we serve is able to deliver us. [NIV]

In today's prayer and devotional, Jaime Hampton, host of Praying Christian Women, guides listeners into the freeing practice of confession and repentance. Using Psalm 32, she illustrates the emotional and spiritual toll of unconfessed sin and the relief that comes when we bring our transgressions into the light. Jaime encourages regular confession, both to God and in a trusted Christian community, as a powerful path to healing and renewed purpose. Today's Bible Verse: Psalm 32:3–5 (NIV) – “When I kept silent, my bones wasted away... Then I acknowledged my sin… and you forgave the guilt of my sin.”

Have you ever felt distant from God? Have you ever experienced not hearing from Him or sensing His presence like you use to? Seasons like this can cause us to question where God is, what happened, and if we did anything wrong. In today's episode, I want to explore a few reasons why you may feel distant from God and how to respond to restore and grow your intimacy with the Lord.

768 Our Gospel Did Not Come To You In Word Only, A Guided Christian Meditation on 1 Thessalonians 1:4-6 with the Recenter With Christ app The purpose of this podcast is to help you find more peace in  and connect with the true source of peace, Jesus Christ.  Outline: Relaxation, Reading, Meditation, Prayer, Contemplation and Visualization. Get into a place where you can sit comfortably and uninterrupted for about 20 minutes.You should hopefully not be driving or anything tensing or unrelaxing.  If you feel comfortable to do so, I invite you to close your eyes.   Guided Relaxation / Guided Meditation:   Breathe and direct your thoughts to connecting with God. Let your stomach be a balloon inflate,  deflate. Scripture for Meditation 1 Thessalonians 1:4-6 NIV 4 For we know, brothers and sisters loved by God, that he has chosen you, 5 because our gospel came to you not simply with words but also with power, with the Holy Spirit and deep conviction. You know how we lived among you for your sake. 6 You became imitators of us and of the Lord, for you welcomed the message in the midst of severe suffering with the joy given by the Holy Spirit. ESV 4 For we know, brothers loved by God, that he has chosen you, 5 because our gospel came to you not only in word, but also in power and in the Holy Spirit and with full conviction. You know what kind of men we proved to be among you for your sake. 6 And you became imitators of us and of the Lord, for you received the word in much affliction, with the joy of the Holy Spirit, Meditation on Scripture: You are beloved and chosen of God. Raw intellect is not the complete package in terms of faith. How is it that a testimony of God grows and develops? Is it expressly because a person acquires the right facts? I would suggest that knowledge is an element of faith but it is far from the most important. It is more important to experience God's spirit. Sometimes we can say that we understand that then we live as though it is true.Through that spirit we receive faith. Through that spirit we are transformed. I think this means that it is important for us to focus on welcoming the Gospel and that Spirit into our heart. I certainly don't claim that our effort dictates the activity of God's spirit but if we look past God speaking to our hearts we miss much of what he would say to us individually. As God speaks to our heart, this becomes the foundation of our faith.  So I think it is incredibly important that we prioritize our focus on the way God's spirit speaks to us. A couple days ago I was praying for someone I love. I was praying that they could experience peace. In my heart I felt the answer from the Lord is that this was the phase of life they were in. I then had this distinct answer that any words of comfort would need to come from me. This inspired me to try and be even more thoughtful about my answers to this person. I certainly don't think this sets any systemic theology. In some ways the objective truth of this inspiration doesn't matter, it blessed my life, and as a result blessed the life of the person I was praying for. I think for me, this represented a connection with God's spirit. The still small voice. It is both subtle but also power.  So in moments of meditation focus on listening to the Spirit of God. Also in moments of prayer and quiet that don't quite ascend to the depth of what we would call mediation, focus on listening also. It is not by words only that God through the gospel came to you and continues to transform your life.  Meditation of Prayer: Pray as directed by the Spirit. Dedicate these moments to the patient waiting, when you feel ready ask God for understanding you desire from Him. Meditation of God and His Glory / Hesychasm: I invite you to sit in silence feeling patient for your own faults and trials. Summarize what insights you have gained during this meditation and meditate and visualize positive change in your life: This is a listener funded podcast at patreon.com/christianmeditationpodcast Final Question: If you consider the invitation and command to persevere in the faith, what change in your life does that bring to your mind?  FIND ME ON: Download my free app: Recenter with Christ Website - ChristianMeditationPodcast.com Voicemail - (602) 888-3795 Email: jared@christianmeditationpodcast.com Apple Podcasts - Christian Meditation Podcast Facebook.com/christianmeditationpodcast Youtube.com/christianmeditaitonpodcast Twitter - @ChristianMedPod

Have you ever wondered why money is such a persistent problem for so many of us? Both national and personal debt are at an all-time high, and most Americans don't have reserve funds to cover a $400 emergency. Financial experts believe the solution is teaching people how to manage money, but I believe the real problem runs much deeper. After 45 years of working with all kinds of people, I've witnessed how both rich and poor can be enslaved by money. And whether you're a Christian or not, the major reason people don't know how to manage money is because they have never mastered their money; their money has mastered them. The apostle Paul understood our timeless struggle with money when he wrote to young Timothy about the spiritual principles of money. In 1 Timothy 6:6–10, Paul reveals God's formula for true financial success: “But godliness with contentment is great gain” (v. 6, NIV). The only way to manage money correctly is to master money spiritually, and that requires three essential steps that will transform your relationship with money forever.

Preacher: Jason Min Title: Wisdom for Anger Sermon Series: God's Wisdom for Everyday Life Scripture: Proverbs 14:29 (NLT), Proverbs 19:19 (NLT), Proverbs 22:24-25 (NIV), Proverbs 29:22 (NLT)

QUOTES FOR REFLECTION “This hill, though high, I covet to ascend;The difficulty will not me offend.For I perceive the way to life lies here.Come, pluck up, heart; let's neither faint nor fear.Better, though difficult, the right way to go,Than wrong, though easy, where the end is woe.”~Pilgrim's Progress, John Bunyan, 17th Century English writer and preacher “Everything is needful that He sends; nothing can be needful that He withholds.”~John Newton, 18th Century English hymnwriter and preacher “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”~John 16:33 (NIV) “The Bible is profoundly realistic because it tells us suffering is inevitable. No one escapes it. We shouldn't be surprised and shocked by it. The Bible is terribly matter-of-fact about the reality that the world is filled with misery. Yet, it offers not merely a spiritual afterlife but the hope of a renewed creation, the resurrection, and a material world wiped clean of decay and suffering and death. No other religion promises such a thing."~Tim Keller, 21st Century American pastor and author “Though Satan should buffet,though trials should come,let this blest assurance control,that Christ has regarded my helpless estate,And hath shed His own blood for my soul.”~“It Is Well With My Soul,” Horatio Spafford, 19th Century American hymnwriterSERMON PASSAGEHebrews 12:3-17 (ESV) 3 Consider him who endured from sinners such hostility against himself, so that you may not grow weary or fainthearted. 4 In your struggle against sin you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood. 5 And have you forgotten the exhortation that addresses you as sons? “My son, do not regard lightly   the discipline of the Lord,     nor be weary when reproved by him. 6 For the Lord disciplines the one he loves,     and chastises every son whom he receives.”7 It is for discipline that you have to endure. God is treating you as sons. For what son is there whom his father does not discipline? 8 If you are left without discipline, in which all have participated, then you are illegitimate children and not sons. 9 Besides this, we have had earthly fathers who disciplined us and we respected them. Shall we not much more be subject to the Father of spirits and live? 10 For they disciplined us for a short time as it seemed best to them, but he disciplines us for our good, that we may share his holiness. 11 For the moment all discipline seems painful rather than pleasant, but later it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it. 12 Therefore lift your drooping hands and strengthen your weak knees, 13 and make straight paths for your feet, so that what is lame may not be put out of joint but rather be healed. 14 Strive for peace with everyone, and for the holiness without which no one will see the Lord. 15 See to it that no one fails to obtain the grace of God; that no “root of bitterness” springs up and causes trouble, and by it many become defiled; 16 that no one is sexually immoral or unholy like Esau, who sold his birthright for a single meal. 17 For you know that afterward, when he desired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, for he found no chance to repent, though he sought it with tears.

"Therefore there is now no condemnation for those in christ Jesus....." (Romans 8:1 NIV)

James 1:19 (NIV)Malachi 2:1 (NIV)Colossians 4:6 (NIV)Proverbs 14:29 (KJV)Ephesians 4:26 (NIV)

What is truly at the center of your life?In this powerful message, Sam McKern challenges us to examine our focus in a culture obsessed with self. Drawing from Ephesians 1:20-23(MSG) and 1 John 2:15-17(NIV), he reminds us that the world is not the center of God's plan—Jesus is.If we're not careful, we begin chasing a counterfeit version of life: one that looks fulfilling but leaves us empty. A self-focused life pulls us away from our need for God and drains our faith. But when we make Jesus the center of it all, everything changes.

Today’s Bible Verse – 2 Timothy 1:7 (NIV) “For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline.” Struggling with fear or insecurity? 2 Timothy 1:7 reminds us that God hasn’t given us a spirit of fear—but one of power, love, and self-discipline. This verse offers truth and encouragement for anyone facing anxiety, self-doubt, or spiritual hesitation. In Christ, you are divinely equipped for courage, clarity, and peace.

Bible Reading: Romans 12:6-8"I heard the kids' choir at church is holding auditions next week," Mom said as Milo set the table for dinner. "Why don't you try out? I know how much you love to sing, and they could sure use you." Milo shrugged. "I'm sure those kids are way better than me, so why bother? I'll just stick to singing in the shower." "I found out more about badgers!" Anna announced when they sat down to dinner. "Have you ever heard of a honey badger?" "No, but I'm guessing it's called a honey badger because it likes honey," said Milo."Right!" said Anna. "The honey badger has a bird friend called a honeyguide. When the honeyguide finds a beehive full of honey, it leads the way to it. Then the honey badger uses its claws to break open the hive and eat the honey.""Does the honeyguide get some of the honey too?" asked Milo. Anna shook her head. "Well, that doesn't seem fair!" said Milo. "The honey badger should share the honey.""But the honeyguide doesn't want the honey," said Anna. "It wants the beeswax and the bees' eggs and larvae in the honeycomb, and that's what the honey badger leaves behind.""Interesting," said Dad. "So each one helps the other, and by helping each other they both benefit.""You know, we're supposed to do the same thing as Christians," said Mom. "Just like the bird is able to locate honey and the honey badger has claws to open the hive, God has blessed us with different talents and abilities. He wants us to use them to help others and point them to Jesus. When we keep our gifts to ourselves instead of sharing them with others, everyone misses out--both us and the people who would have benefited from them." Milo sighed. "You're talking about me trying out for the kids' choir, aren't you?" He put down his fork. "Okay, maybe I'll give it a try--I wouldn't want to keep a gift God gave me all to myself when I could use it to help others. I might make new friends and learn more about music too.

You can pay your taxes, you can pay off your mortgage, but there's one debt that can never be settled. Fortunately, the inexhaustible debt to love others is a happy burden. Yes, it's very difficult sometimes, but the end result can be peaceful and pleasant. In the section of Romans 13 that we've been looking at, Paul charges his readers to love "one another," and then again, to love "your neighbor." So the circle widens. Here's Jim to finish a sermon called, Love's Truest Test.

Dr. Brian Hill (Senior Pastor), "Principles of Faith - What We Believe:  Stewardship".       10.  Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God's grace in its various forms.       (I Peter 4:10 NIV)

by Dr. MaryAnn Diorio July 26, 2025 Hello and Happy Day! This is Dr. MaryAnn Diorio, Novelist and Life Coach, welcoming you to another episode of Winning with the Word. Today is Saturday, July 26, 2025, and this is episode #10 in Series 2025. This episode is titled, “Sounding the Alarm." For the past few years, watchmen all over the world have been watching for the return of Jesus Christ in the cataclysmic event known as the Rapture. But not only have they been watching, they have been warning the world as the Lord has been revealing more and more signs of His soon return.In the Old Testament Book of Daniel, chapter 12, verse 9, the prophet Daniel inquired of the angel as to how the end of the world would transpire. The angel replied, “Go now, Daniel, for what I have said is kept secret and sealed until the time of the end."Well, my friend, we are now in that time of the end! And the Lord is revealing to His watchmen, day by day, the meaning of the signs the world is experiencing.Perhaps the most significant of these signs is what is happening in the Middle East. Keep your eyes on Israel. Israel is God's timepiece. As goes Israel, so goes the world.Let's take a look at some of these endtime signs that were sealed up in Daniel's day but are now being revealed in ours. These signs indicate our Lord's return in the Rapture is at hand.1. MASS DECEPTION. When the disciples asked Jesus what would be the signs of the endtimes, the first thing Jesus listed was deception. Let's read the passage in Matthew 24: 23-24:"As Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately. 'Tell us,' they said, 'when will this happen, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?' Jesus answered: 'Watch out that no one deceives you.'" (Matthew 24: 23-24 NIV).We are living in a day when it is becoming more and more difficult to distinguish the truth from the lie. With advances in Artificial Intelligence, we are now able to manipulate images, voices, faces, and everything else in such a way as to distort who or what they really are and make them into what we want them to be. We create avatars, pictures of ourselves as we would like to look, not as we truly look. I find it very disturbing that one of the chief definitions of avatar is the Merriam-Webster Dictionary definition that calls an avatar "the incarnation of a Hindu deity" A false god. This is DECEPTION.We are witnessing an increasing number of people claiming to be the Messiah and offering solutions to the problems of the world. In a desperate attempt to find answers, people are turning to spiritists, mediums, mystics, psychics, New Age leaders, and other occultists, not realizing that they are playing with fire and opening their lives to the demonic realm. 2. WARS AND RUMORS OF WARS. To my knowledge, there is currently a war or a threat of war in each of the four corners of the earth. Jesus warned us that this would be the case in the end times. Each day we hear increasing threats of a third world war, and, from the looks of things, we wonder if World War III has not already begun. 3.WIDESPREAD LAWLESSNESS. If you've watched the news lately, you've seen incidences of rioting in the streets, explosions on private property, and acts of arson that ignited widespread forest fires. Recently, a gang from a major nearby city invaded my small town and raced down one of our main streets on motorcycles. There were about 100 of them, and their exhibitions of lawlessness were beyond the pale. Their belligerent, rebellious actions forced other drivers off the road. The gang went through red lights, while doing flips, spins, and twirls with their motorcycles that would defy the most experienced stunt man. But as if obstructing traffic and endangering lives was not bad enough, the gang also assaulted an elderly couple who own a convenience store in our area, robbed their beverage case, and destroyed their property.

*This episode mentions suicide and may be triggering for some listeners.* This week, we hear from Niki Hardy—a writer, speaker, and coach who brings honesty and hope to life’s most difficult moments. Niki has weathered seasons of cancer, grief, burnout, and questions of faith. After transitioning from a corporate career into nonprofit and ministry work, she came to believe that life doesn’t have to be pain-free to be full. Later in the episode, we’ll hear from Danette Crawford, founder of Joy Ministries. Danette shares her journey through heartbreak, single motherhood, and the challenges of starting over. She reflects on how joy is more than a feeling—it’s a deep-rooted strength—and encourages listeners to embrace service to others as a path to a more fulfilling life.

And through all that, I’ve come to believe God loves a cheerful doubter.” - Niki Hardy “It’s possible to experience the full, abundant life right in the midst of all we’re enduring and to thrive, not just survive. Life doesn’t have to be pain-free to be full.” - Niki Hardy “If I chat with God, I might not find the answers that I’m looking for, but I will find the relationship and the intimacy that I am really after.” - Niki Hardy “When we are going through times when either life isn’t going as we hoped or expected and it’s just annoying and frustrating or when it’s deeply painful and life-altering, it’s in that place of walking and talking and chatting with God that we find peace in our hard moments.” - Niki Hardy “We love that God is knowable, but we also have to reconcile and live in the mystery that He’s also unknowable.” - Niki Hardy “I had to make the choice to forgive. I had to make the choice to go forward. I had to get up out of my mess.” - Niki Hardy “We need to realize that when things change—because things will change fast—we can hang on to the truth of God’s Word. And we can hang on to our deep-rooted faith and trust.” - Danette Crawford “It’s when we go through situations and circumstances that really shake us and test our faith and test our joy that we are faced with a decision. And I made a decision that I was going to get my happy back.” - Danette Crawford “When you are determined to get your eyes off of yourself and go minister to others, trust me, joy will spring up in you. Focus forward, and go be a blessing to somebody else.” - Danette Crawford ________________________ Enjoy watching these additional videos from Jesus Calling YouTube channel!

As Christians we are free! - but we have obligations. At some point in our journey toward adulthood we figure out that grownups have to pay bills. And those who don't pay what they owe will have a difficult time of it. It's the same on our road to Christian maturity. Along the way, we learn that we have debts. Jim will talk about what those are, in the opening segment of his sermon, Love's Truest Test.

Today’s Bible Verse – Isaiah 43:19 (NIV) “See, I am doing a new thing!Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?I am making a way in the wildernessand streams in the wasteland.” God specializes in the unexpected. In Isaiah 43:19, we’re reminded that He’s not only present in the wilderness—but He’s making a way through it.

"Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good." That simple scripture, Romans 12:21, is sparking some thought in us. How do we respond when someone injures our reputation, or our career - or our body? It takes some faith and imagination to believe that my "enemy" might one day be my brother or sister in Christ.

Have you ever felt trapped in a cycle you just couldn’t break—where freedom feels promised but not lived out? In today’s devotional, Jennifer Slattery shares her deeply personal journey through disordered eating and emotional wounds. But more than that, she reveals the key to lasting freedom: learning to rely not on our own strength, but on Christ's Spirit within us. 2 Corinthians 3:17 reminds us, “Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.” This isn’t just a feel-good verse—it’s a declaration of the abundant life we’re meant to walk in every day.
