Wednesday, September 23 2026 | Pastor Jason Wallace | “You do not have to leave your God-given assignment to answer every person who criticizes it!” - Pastor Jason WallaceI sent messengers unto them, saying, I am doing a great work, so that I cannot come down: why should the work cease, whilst I leave it, and come down to you? Nehemiah 6:3 KJV
It's easy to get complacent in our relationship with God knowing that he loves us unconditionally. But in 1 Thessalonians 4, Paul encourages us to live in a way that pleases God more and more.

How can you truly please God every day? In this Words From The Word daily devotion, Pastor Roderick Webster of Good News Baptist Church in Sint Maarten opens up Scripture to show us what it really means to live a life that is pleasing to God, drawing from 2 Corinthians 8, Romans 8:8, 1 John 3:22, Psalms 147:11, Hebrews 11, and more, all from the King James Version.You might be asking... Does God actually notice how I live? Can someone like me really please God? What does it mean to fear God in today's world? Is my faith strong enough for God to be pleased with me?In this devotion, Pastor Webster walks through several practical keys to pleasing God:- You must be saved first - those in the flesh cannot please God (Romans 8:8)- Obedience to God's Word brings answered prayer (1 John 3:22)- Fearing God brings Him pleasure and opens the door to His mercy (Psalms 147:11)- Faith is essential - without it, it is impossible to please God (Hebrews 11:6)- Praise and thanksgiving please God more than outward religious gifts (Psalms 69:30-31)You are His ambassador, placed here to represent heaven on earth. Whatever you do today, do it to please God.If this devotion encouraged you, please like, leave a comment, share it with someone who needs it, and subscribe so you never miss a message.#WordsFromTheWord #KJV #BibleDevotion #ChristianLiving #GoodNewsBaptistChurchStay connected with GNBC:
Week 3: Is It Possible to Please God?9/13/2026Main Passage: Colossians 1:9–14 We often assume we are too flawed to ever please God, but Scripture teaches that pleasing Him is both possible and expected. God is already at work in us, and we please Him as we grow, not only when we are perfected.

From great potential to great disaster! That in a nutshell is the story of King Saul, and very sadly it's a story that's been repeated through the ages. We hope and pray today's message from pastor Ed Taylor will encourage you in a much different direction… and that is a life that is lived for the glory of God, rather than the flesh. We're watching the downfall of a man and King as we open 1st Samuel chapter fourteen here on Abounding Grace.

Pastor Ed Taylor is teaching from the book of First Samuel right now. Find your place in chapter fourteen. Lately we've been observing the life of Saul, and it's not a pretty picture. And things go from bad to worse as we look at this chapter of his life. We could sum it up by describing him as a fleshly, carnal man! Not something you want to be known for, so let's see what we can learn from it. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/302/29?v=20251111
Welcometo Pastor's Chat. Today we begin 1 Thessalonians chapter 4. The first threechapters have been very personal. Paul has talked about his ministry among theThessalonians, his love for them, his concern about their faith, Timothy'svisit, and the wonderful report that they were standing fast in the Lord. Now,beginning in chapter 4, Paul turns his attention more directly to howChristians should live. He writes: “Finally then, brethren, we urge andexhort in the Lord Jesus that you should abound more and more, just as youreceived from us how you ought to walk and to please God; for you know whatcommandments we gave you through the Lord Jesus.” Iwant you to notice Paul's expression: “How you ought to walk and to pleaseGod.” The Bible often uses the word walk to describe the Christian life. Ourwalk is the way we live every day. Christianity isn't merely something webelieve on Sunday morning. It affects Monday morning. It affects our marriage. Itaffects our family. It affects our work. It affects our finances. It affectswhat we watch, what we say, where we go, and how we treat people. OurChristianity should affect our entire walk. ButPaul gives us the great goal of that walk: “To please God.” That raisesa very important question: Who am I trying to please with my life? Most of usnaturally want people to approve of us. We want our family to be pleased withus. We want our friends to like us. We want people to think well of us. But thehighest ambition of the Christian should be: “I want my life to please God.”Paul said in Galatians 1:10: “For if I yet pleased men, I should not bethe servant of Christ.” There will be times when pleasing God means wecannot please everyone around us. Sometimes obeying God will be unpopular. Sometimesstanding for truth will cost us something. But when this life is over, theopinion that will ultimately matter is God's. Andnotice something else. Paul tells these believers that they were alreadywalking in a way that pleased God, but then he says they should “abound moreand more.” We keep seeing this theme in Thessalonians. Paul doesn't say,“You're doing well, so you can stop growing.” He says, in effect: “You're doingwell—now keep growing.” That is spiritual maturity. No matter how long we haveknown Christ, there should always be an “abound more and more” in our lives. Wecan pray more. We can love more. We can know God's Word more. We can serve morefaithfully. We can become more like Jesus. I have been walking with the Lordfor many years, but I still need to grow. And so do you. None of us hasarrived. Thenverse 2 reminds us that Paul's instructions were not merely his personalopinions: “For you know what commandments we gave you through the LordJesus.” Paul's authority came from Christ. That is why the Word of God mustbe the standard for our lives. Our culture constantly changes its ideas aboutwhat is right and wrong. Public opinion changes. Social standards change. ButGod's Word does not change. So today, perhaps we should ask ourselves a simplequestion: “Is the way I am walking pleasing to God?” Not, “Does everybodyapprove?” Not, “Is this popular?” Not even, “Does this make me happy?” But: “Lord,does this please You?” Whata wonderful way to begin every morning: “Lord, today I want to walk in a waythat pleases You.” And when tonight comes, may we be able to look back over ourday and know that, by God's grace, we sought to honor Him. Let'spray. Heavenly Father, thank You for reminding us that the Christian life is adaily walk. Help us not merely to profess our faith with our lips but todemonstrate it by the way we live. Lord, deliver us from living for theapproval of people and give us a sincere desire above everything else to pleaseYou. Help us to abound more and more in faith, love, obedience, andChristlikeness. May our decisions, words, relationships, and actions todaybring honor to Your name. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
We are masters of rationalization We have an innate ability to justify ourselves. We have a natural tendency to excuse selfishness and stubbornness and sinfulness. We do wrong and make it sound like we did right. The Bible says, "Woe to those who call evil good and good evil." This is exactly what Saul does in the passage we are investigating in this episode of Wisdom from Above. Don't miss tis episode.

This sermon explores the nature of genuine faith as defined in Hebrews 11, emphasizing that true worship requires a transformed heart rather than mere external ritual. Using Abel as the primary example, the text contrasts his righteous devotion with Cain's hollow religiosity to illustrate that God looks at the inner motives of the worshipper. The message asserts that without faith, it is impossible to please God, and that only those justified by faith in Jesus Christ can offer acceptable sacrifices. It warns against legalism and sin, urging believers to maintain enduring trust in God's promises despite persecution or hardship. Ultimately, the sermon calls for a wholehearted commitment to God, where faith becomes the foundation for a life of obedience and hope.

Are You Trying to Please God the Wrong Way? Hebrews 11 is an invitation to fix your eyes on Jesus. In this message, Andrew Farley shows how the famous "Hall of Faith" points beyond human heroes to God's finished work in Christ. Discover why it's not really about the size of your faith and how everything God promised is already yours through the finished work of Jesus. Discussion Questions for Hebrews 11: Read verses 1–3. How does faith help us trust the unseen God when our visible circumstances seem to tell a different story? Read verse 4. Why was Abel's sacrifice "better," and how does Jesus give us a far better sacrifice than anything we could offer? Read verses 5–6. What does this passage reveal about pleasing God, and how can we stop trying to impress Him through religious performance? Read verses 8–12. Where might God be inviting you to trust His character even though you cannot yet see the outcome? Read verses13–16. How can remembering our better, heavenly country bring peace when this world feels disappointing, unstable, or unfair? Read verses 32–38. Why can both deliverance and endurance be expressions of faith, and how does this correct outcome-based ideas about trusting God? Read verses 39–40. What "something better" do we possess in the New Covenant that these faithful Old Testament believers never experienced?

How can we live in a way that pleases God? In this message from 1 Thessalonians 4:1-12, we explore what it means to make pleasing God our highest priority. The Apostle Paul reminds us that following Jesus is not just about believing the right things, it's about allowing God to transform the way we live.
If you can hear the whales through your glowing foot roots, then stand up. Open your mouth. Let their aria rip through you. Let it pound up and out so the others can find you. Burrrp! Now's not the time for politeness, my love. We're staring down mass extinction. We don't have time to be cool. Care! It's fine! There's a rumbling in your belly. Can you feel it? An inner ocean, still teeming with luminescent jellyfish, dulled by a thin coat of plastic, immortal but dying anyway. For so many their foot roots have withered away somewhere in between an Uber shift and a Door Dash, and besides, their heart, rick-roll racketed by rent scam subscriptions, beats too loud and fast to hear any stupid whales. Exhausted bodies hosting ghosts running on foodless food and godless gods, too sick and tired to look up to see, to know what's happening in our name, to understand that the cold blue eyes of the empire of whiteness stamped on our every dollar bill that we are forced to pray for fervently each night, “Please God please God Please may I pay my bills God Please may I feed my children God Please may we keep this roof God Please may you give me more money God Please oh money God Please oh please I don't want to die Please give me your demon dollars Made from the bones of African child slaves Pressed from the meat of the babies of Gaza Printed with the oil made from the blood sacrifices of Chevron Paper gods every one I know not where they come from Or how they are made And I might die of grief if I did Just give me some more of your green demon prayer cards So that I might live Another day, Amen.” That is not you. You pray of course (we all must), but you, you hear the whales. And there are others. You can tell us by the flowers of light sprouting from our eye stalks and noggin crowns, from our bellowing war cries roaring through us giving voice to our blue mama, her rainforest hair slick with oil but beautiful still.

Featuring: Judah Thomas, David LaManna, Lenny Salgado, Johnny V., Mike McHugh, and James GowellEdited by: Tim NicholsonIn this episode of Thriving in the Word, we continue The Hall of Faith series and we stop at a man who spent his whole life living inside someone else's story and still found a way to pass the promise forward.We walk through Genesis 25, 26, and 27 and trace it into Hebrews 11:20, where Isaac, by faith, followed Father Abraham up the mountain, how two generations gave away their "smokin hot wives" and even touch on Isaac blessing Jacob and Esau concerning things to come. Isaac is the miracle baby who grew up knowing he was almost the sacrifice. He inherited a covenant he didn't ask for, lived in the shadow of one of the greatest men of faith who ever walked, and spent decades digging wells in foreign land, only to have them stolen. And at the end of his life, nearly blind and days from death, he spoke a blessing over his sons a blessing rooted not in what he could see, but in what God had promised.That's not passive faith. That's inherited faith tested and proven.We talk about what it looks like to carry a promise that was handed to you, to keep believing when your circumstances look like setback after setback, and to speak blessing over a future you won't live to see. Isaac's faith didn't make headlines. It was quiet, costly, and generational.That leads us into some honest questions: What do we do with the faith we inherited? Are we stewarding it or just coasting on it? And when we're at the end of our days, what kind of blessing are we speaking over the people who come after us?Topics include: Hall of Faith, Hebrews 11, Isaac, Genesis 25, Genesis 26, Genesis 27, faith and inheritance, blessing by faith, trusting God's promises, generational faith, wells in the wilderness, Jacob and Esau, covenant promise, living in the shadow of greatness, what is faith, faithfulness in obscurity, passing the torch, speaking blessing, faith-based living, tested faith, believing the impossible, God's faithfulness, Christian podcast, Bible teaching, Bible study on Isaac, endurance, walking with God.More Info: https://www.thrive.church Give: https://www.thrive.church/give/ Need prayer? prayer@thrive.church This is a presentation of Thrive.Church. © All Rights Reserved.

I Will Take Refuge In The Shadow Of His Wings Psalms 57:1 “Have mercy on me, my God, have mercy on me, for in you I take refuge. I will take refuge in the shadow of your wings until the disaster has passed.” What struck me about this passage when I first read it was the last line. “I will take refuge in the shadow of your wings until the disaster has passed.” The thought that came to my mind was, “Wouldn't it be nice to just rest in God's shadow until the disaster has passed?” I thought about all the people I know right now who are in situations that feel like they are a disaster. I have a friend who is in a legal battle with a family member over money. Tony has a co-worker who is in intensive care, fighting for his life. I have a family member who just found out she has cancer. Another friend's husband found out he is going blind. I got a text from a friend today who asked for prayers for her brother, who went to the ER today because he was having seizures. I could go on and on. It seems to be never-ending. When I think of all of them, I can see how this verse applies to them. The beginning says, " Have mercy on me, my God, have mercy on me, for in you I take refuge. I can see them crying this out to the Lord. I am crying it out for them in my prayers. I am begging God to have mercy on them. I am begging God to please not let Tony's co-worker pass away. Please have mercy on him. Please don't leave his kids without a dad and his wife without a husband. Please let my family member's cancer be stage one and easily removable. Please have mercy on my friend's husband and miraculously cure his eyesight. Please stop the seizures my friend's brother is having, and please heal any damage that might be a result of the seizures. Please God, have mercy on my loved ones and me. Please God, have mercy on them and their loved ones. The verse says, “For in you I take refuge.” To take refuge means to go to a safe place. When we are struggling, as so many of us are today, we can go to the Lord; He can be our safe place. He can be the place we go to, and we rest. The ending of the verse says, “I will take refuge in the shadow of your wings until the disaster has passed.” When I hear this, I get two images. The first one is of a giant eagle. This eagle is taller than any person, but not so giant that we are tiny in comparison. This eagle is standing up tall and proud, and we are tucked under its giant eagle wing. It is as if he is hugging us, and we feel warm and safe there. The second image is us just falling asleep under the protection of His wings until the disaster has passed. When something awful is happening in our lives, a lot of times we want to pretend it isn't happening. Life is easier that way. We wish we could just stay in bed until the bad parts of our lives are over. Technically, we could do this, some people do this, and yet, I don't think any of us would be happy with those results. Unfortunately, avoiding the disaster and trying to sleep it away will not change the fact that you are going through something really hard right now. I have a friend who is really struggling because her daughter is not talking to her, and her daughter is about to turn 18. Her daughter is going to graduate, and she doesn't get to watch her walk across that stage. My friend does not even want to get out of bed in the morning some mornings, and who can blame her? I wouldn't either. However, my friend does get up, and she does still do the things that are required of her. Not because she wants to and not because she has to, but because she has taken refuge in the Lord. She knows where her strength comes from, and no one can take that away from her. She is strong, and she knows she is a beloved daughter of God, and that makes all the difference in the world. When we are going through a really difficult time, we can take refuge in God. We can hide under his wings, and He will protect us. I like the image I get when I hear this verse because we are asleep in the Father's arms/wings and He is just holding us there until the disaster goes away. How great would that be? How great would it be to just hide away in a safe place until all this mess was over? While we can't literally hide until the mess goes away, we can place our troubles in the hands of our Lord and then give Him permission to take care of them for us. We can hide in His shadow while we wait for the miracle that He has planned for our loved ones and for us. We just have to hold on. We just have to turn towards the Lord instead of away from him when we need him. We just need to rest in his shadow and continue to say, “Have mercy on me, my God, have mercy on me.” If you are going through a disaster right now, I want you to know you are not alone. There are so many of us who are struggling right now. I also want you to know that I am praying for you and your family. I am praying God has mercy on you and your loved ones. I am praying you are able to find refuge in God our Savior. I am holding onto hope for you. Take refuge in the shadow of His wings until the disaster has passed. This disaster will pass, I promise you that. You will make it through this. God is there with you, even when you can't feel Him. He is there, right there with you. Rest in Him! Dear Heavenly Father, I ask you to bless each person listening to this episode today. Lord, we want to rest in you. Please help us. Lord, have mercy on our loved ones and on us. Please do this miracle for us. The one we keep asking for, the one we really, really, need right now. Yep, that one, the one that seems impossible. We know you are the God of the impossible. We know you are the Way-maker, and you make a way where there isn't one. We know these miracles would be simple for you, and so we are begging for your mercy, Lord. Please help us. We love you, Lord, and we ask all of this in accordance with your will and in Jesus' holy name, Amen! Thank you so much for joining me on this journey to walk boldly with Jesus. I look forward to meeting you here again on Monday. Remember, Jesus loves you, and so do I!

Obedience is not a transaction with God. It is not a lever you pull to manipulate His pleasure, nor a means of earning divine approval. Obedience flows from a heart that the gospel has radically transformed. It rises not from a place of fear or striving but from a settled gratitude—a soul that knows it has been loved and accepted fully in Christ. To obey God rightly is to respond to His love, not to attempt to earn it. That distinction changes everything.

Keith Rohrer | May 10 2026 Ask 20 people what they think God is looking for in them, and you'd probably hear at least 10 different answers. Things like faithful church attendance, not getting angry, staying married to your spouse, refusing to steal even small things, volunteering at church or places like The Factory Ministries. None of those things are bad—all good actually. But what He's really looking for is, “Do you have faith?” It's not just important, the Bible insists it's impossible to please God without it. During Jesus' ministry, He only saw “great faith” in two people. Neither was a disciple, neither was a Jew. On Sunday, we'll look at one of them and try to figure out what Jesus saw in her. And why was He originally so harsh with her?

We continue the conversation on how true transformation starts from the mind And by being deeply rooted in our spiritual position in Christ. Knowing this life is temporary makes a great difference in how we show up each day- in our attitude and actions. This is not to bring fear or have a YOLO mentality. In fact, from a biblical perspective, it does the complete opposite. It helps us to live lighter, more freely. Since we know to be absent from this body is to be eternally present with the Lord.
