When tragedy strikes or life unravels, support often comes in waves. In the early days, friends gather, meals are shared, prayers pour in. But as weeks pass, the calls and check-ins fade, leaving many feeling forgotten. Rachel Wojo, host of Untangling Prayer, reminds us that while human support has limits, God’s love and presence are limitless. His promise — “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you” — is written with the strongest possible assurance. Unlike people, who may forget or move on, God remains constant. His faithfulness is not tied to our performance, our circumstances, or even our doubts. When you feel abandoned, remember: God’s presence never fades. He is your Helper, your steady companion in the lonely moments, the midnight tears, and the quiet struggles. Today's Bible Verse: "Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, 'Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.' So we say with confidence, 'The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?' Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever." – Hebrews 13:5-8 Key Takeaways People may fail you, but God never will. His love is permanent and unchanging. God’s promise in Hebrews 13 is emphatic. In the original text, it’s a double negative — “no way, not ever” will He leave you. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. His presence and love remain constant through every season. Your confidence rests in God’s help, not human approval. Let’s Pray Heavenly Father, thank You that Your love never fades. When human support weakens or disappears, remind me that You are always near. Help me to trust that Your presence is steady, unchanging, and more than enough. May I say with confidence, “The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid.” In Jesus’ name, Amen. Calls to Action Subscribe to Your Daily Prayer for daily encouragement.

The New Zealand First convention took place at the Distinction Hotel in Palmerston North over the weekend. And all these silver fern, pin-wearing NZ First faithful gathered, along with a few wannabes, like Stuart Nash, he spoke. Just a few formalities to go through and it looks like Stuart Nash will be a signed-up member of NZ First and one of their high-profile names going forward at the next election. I don't know how the coalition government decided who would go first in the Deputy Prime Minister's role. If they said how they did it, it's escaped me, I'm sorry. They might have tossed a coin. They might have played paper scissors rock. They might have put their names in a hat and Christopher Luxon drew out one. Might have been done on seniority - oldest and most experience goes first. You just know that Winston Peters, leader of NZ First, would have totally gamed the system to ensure he served first as Deputy Prime Minister because after a good stint of being Foreign Affairs Minister, which he still is and which he still works hard at, and a good stint of standing in for the Prime Minister when he was out of the country and fulfilling his obligations admirably, it free's him up now, now that David Seymour's in the role, to really get the campaigning underway for NZ First well before 2026 rolls around. To be fair, ACT are not far behind. David Seymour's State of the Nation speech at the beginning of the year was a rallying cry to the party faithful. But at NZ First's convention over the weekend, you heard speeches that sounded more like promises. Promises that would normally be made on the hustings. It wasn't a convention per se, it was more of a, "Let's get going, brothers. Let's start promising," the kind of glorious kind of promises that NZ First voters are looking for when it comes to political parties. Things like making KiwiSaver compulsory, contributions being raised to 10%, offsetting that raise with tax cuts. What's happened here is you've got thousands and thousands of people, hundreds of thousands have signed up, but they're not contributing. They're not saving. And so it's not as easy as some of the journalists thought, just to work out what's going on. But we're going to make it compulsory and we're going to ensure this is phased in at a level which you'll see comprehensively is followed overseas. We need to turn this into a super, super saving fund and a super investment fund at the same time, but not in the control of politicians. And when you talked about yesterday tax cuts, that's literally a tax cut for a person who's contributing to KiwiSaver, or is it a rebate or how would it work? That's a tax cut for the person contributing to Kiwi Saver and also for the employer. Right, so I would pay less tax if I'm contributing to Kiwi Saver. You still with us? Yes, I said exactly, yeah. I think there must have been a drop out on the line. That was Winston Peters talking to Mike Hosking this morning. There was more preaching to the converted. Winston Peters called for new migrants having to sign a Kiwi values document, incorporating respect for the flag, respect for democracy, one person, one vote, that sort of thing. I imagine it'd be much like the Australian values statement that migrants to Australia must sign. And Peters said the party was responsible for getting cabinet to agree to bring legislation to the House very shortly, making English an official language of New Zealand. As is generally the case with election campaign promises, there wasn't a great deal of specific detail. No costings from Peters on how much the Kiwi Saver policy would cost or how it would be implemented, other than to say the rise in contributions would be staggered, first 8% then 10%. But let him be perfectly clear, there is life in the old boy yet and he is determined to get himself and NZ First back into Parliament and back into government with even more sway than he had this time around. As far as Winston Peters is concerned, ‘25, as in 2025 is done and dusted. It is 2026, baby. NZ First is on the road, looking to win over voters who are unimpressed and underwhelmed by National and Labour. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

When time has its effect on food, it begins to ferment. And the fermenting in the stomach can create an ache within. The scroll that John is given to eat is sweet. But the promises that are sweet can take time to be fulfilled. More time than we want. And this waiting can create an ache within. We are pained with the desire for fulfillment of the sweet promise of God. We are sick with desire for an end to evil, pain, war, abuse, injustice, and all that's wrong with this broken world. We are aching for deliverance. Like a mother who's delivering a child, the excruciating pain will give way to something new and beautiful. The sweet taste in our mouth is a reminder of the sweet promise of life. But there will be a long ache before it breaks forth into completion. This is not the last time we see God giving food to his servants. There is a feast in store. Revelation 19:7 tells us, Let us be glad and rejoice, and let us give honor to him. For the time has come for the wedding feast of the Lamb. Waiting will be over and we will ache no more. The sweetness of God's promise will prove to be true. We will see with clarity like never before that his life is a sweet gift. And we will be honored to come and sit at his table. See the sweet promises of God. Taste and see that they are good even though the ache for our deliverance comes. And the prayer of my own heart today is that I will take and eat, that I will wait with expectant and joyful hope for that day to come. That's the prayer that I have for my family, for my wife, my daughters, my son. And that's the prayer that I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose  through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen.   Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.   And now Lord,  make me an instrument of your peace.  Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon.  Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope.  Where there is darkness, light.  And where there is sadness,  Joy.  Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love.  For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life.  Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ.  Amen.  OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.   Leave us a voicemail HERE: https://www.speakpipe.com/dailyradiobible Subscribe to us at YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Dailyradiobible/featured OTHER PODCASTS: Listen with Apple Podcast DAILY BIBLE FOR KIDS DAILY PSALMS DAILY PROVERBS DAILY LECTIONARY DAILY CHRONOLOGICAL

Michael Hughes is a biochemist, water researcher and friend of the podcast with a passion for philosophy, mythology, and esoteric traditions. In this conversation, we explore the historical tension between priesthood and prophecy, the way science has replaced religion as a cultural authority, and ask why no society has ever thrived without a shared mythos. The discussion touches on mythology as a guiding force, Rudolf Steiner's spiritual dualism, the balance between materialism and mysticism, the promises and failures of technology, transhumanism, and AI. We also dive into the rise of UFOs and alien narratives as new messianic myths, the enduring metaphor of Atlantis, and the possibility of building a functional metaphysical framework for chaotic times.PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-showOUR HOMEBREWED MUSICCheck out our band's new album:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-hereVinyl pre-orders available now: https://buy.stripe.com/14A5kC3Od5d21Ms7zPdEs0900:00 Go!

Episode Summary: Jesus told us to go into all the world and share the gospel. Yet many Christians admit they struggle with the confidence to do so. In this episode, my son, Blake, joins me to talk about how to start natural conversations that open the door to sharing your faith with others. Together we share practical ways to make those conversations genuine and meaningful. Quotables from the episode: God tells us to go to all the ends of the earth. And he says that it's his desire that none would perish, not even one. So we have a responsibility to share our Christian faith with others while we still have the time. My faith really became my own when I went off to college. One of the big focuses of our church’s college ministry was evangelism. We were practicing evangelizing towards students who maybe didn't have a worldview set in stone yet. Lots of students who were leaving the home and flying the nest for the first time and looking for an explanation for the world around them. Something to cling to as they looked for hope and as they looked for something to identify themselves with. Since graduating college, handful of years ago, I have moved into a job in the professional workforce where I am around adults who now have a set worldview. And my practice of evangelism has had to change from inviting people who are seeking a worldview to adopt the worldview of Christianity and pursue our loving God and Savior, while they were just looking for a way to identify themselves. And that was an easy invitation to now discussing with strangers and coworkers who have set worldview and who have set opinions on Christianity, which has definitely been a shift. It is important to ask people about themselves and to ask people about their beliefs and even when people aren’t comfortable talking about themselves, people are generally willing to talk about their hobbies and their beliefs about the world and how the world operates and how the world should operate. Efforts to evangelize with people can be difficult because even if it’s true that you were sinful and there’s a solution to sin and we can be forgiven for it, people don’t care about the sin if they don’t think that the God that says these things are sin exists or they don’t think that God has any impact over their life or over what happens after their life and so it’s not until you get people to a place where they recognize this God is real and he does have an impact on our life and what happens after our life that they care about what he says is sin and what he says is wrong. We all start with questions of “who am I?” “Where did I come from?” “Why and I here?” “How am I supposed to treat other people while I’m here?” and “Where am I going?” Two important questions are “what do you mean by that? Why do you believe that?” People don’t care what you have to say, until they know you care. even just asking the question, what do you mean by that, it shows that you have interest, you care about their beliefs and where they came from. Right. And I think that that question is powerful and it serves multiple purposes because when people have legitimate hurts, you don't want to just immediately jump to the Bible and go, well, you shouldn't have been hurt by that because that's not how God is. - Or God works all things together for good. Right, which is true. And that's a helpful response for Christians who you're close to and you know that that will hold some value to them. But for someone who's not a Christian, that response will necessarily feel insensitive. - Yes. - And so to ask, what do you mean by that when you're discussing with someone who has legitimate hurts from the church or legitimate hurts from people who are Christians, further clarifies what their beliefs are, which is helpful for you because you get an understanding of what you're actually responding to.

The Security for God's Promises Part 2 Hebrews 6

Have you ever wondered if you’ve pushed God too far, if His love for you could ever run out? Maybe you’ve walked through a season of loss, made mistakes you feel are too big to forgive, or questioned whether God really cares about your pain. In today’s devotional, Rachel Wojo, host of Untangling Prayer, reminds us of the unshakable truth found in Romans 8:35-39 — that nothing in all creation can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus. Not our past mistakes, not our present struggles, not even our doubts. God’s love is unbreakable, unchanging, and relentless. Main Takeaways God’s love is not dependent on your performance, feelings, or circumstances. Paul declares with absolute certainty that nothing—life, death, angels, demons, fears, failures—can separate us from His love. When we’re tempted to believe otherwise, we must anchor our hearts in God’s Word, not our emotions. God’s love is pursuing you right now—stronger than your doubts and greater than your fears. Bible Verse References Romans 8:35-39 – Nothing can separate us from the love of Christ. Ephesians 3:18-19 – To grasp how wide, long, high, and deep is the love of Christ.

“How do I trust God’s heart when His ways and delays are breaking mine?” That’s the question on the table for this week’s episode. It’s probably not a question you’ve asked aloud, but anyone who’s ever been heartbroken, hurt, overwhelmed, or confused by life’s circumstances has pondered the question in her heart. In this episode, I sit down with Kelly Hall—mom of four, Bible teacher, podcaster, and author—whose story of resilience will inspire you. Kelly and her husband, an Air Force fighter pilot, have walked through extraordinary challenges as they raised their four children, three whom are deaf. Kelly is full of real life wisdom about how to hold onto hope when you can barely hold on. Through disappointments, devastation, delays, and seasons of isolation, Kelly has learned how to anchor her heart in God’s promises. She shares practical ways to shift your focus from circumstances to Christ, along with her acronym for HOPE: holding tight to God’s Word, opening your eyes to His work, and embracing His possibilities. If you’ve ever felt like you were drowning and needed someone to throw you a life preserver—this episode is it!

One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on 'The Daily Radio Bible' for a daily 20-minute spiritual journey. Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible, where each day we journey through the pages of Scripture together. In today's episode—September 2nd, 2025—your Bible Reading Coach Hunter guides us through Ezekiel chapters 17 to 19 and Revelation chapter 7. Together, we explore the vivid riddles and prophetic songs of Ezekiel, reflecting on Israel's history, covenant, and the profound call to personal responsibility and transformation. Then, we move into Revelation, where a powerful vision unfolds: multitudes clothed in white, a symbol of those who have washed their robes in the blood of the Lamb and now worship before God's throne. Hunter unpacks the hope within these passages, reminding us that God's love brings newness, healing, and belonging for all who turn to Him. Along the way, Hunter invites listeners from around the world to share in prayer and encouragement, and offers a thoughtful reflection on God's enduring grace—no matter what joys or challenges a new month may bring. Settle in as we read, reflect, and discover what it means to be loved and renewed by the God who is love. TODAY'S DEVOTION: Who are these people dressed in white? And why does John take such care to describe them for us in Revelation 7? These are questions worth lingering with today. The scene John describes is breathtaking: a vast crowd, too great to count, from every nation, tribe, people, and language, standing before God's throne and before the Lamb. They are clothed in white robes, holding palm branches, and their voices ring out with one mighty shout: “Salvation comes from our God who sits on the throne, and from the Lamb.” But where did these people come from? The answer comes from one of the elders around the throne: “These are the ones who died in the great tribulation. They have washed their robes in the blood of the Lamb and made them white.” They stand where they stand—not because of what they've done to cover themselves, but because of what Christ has done for them. They once were hungry and thirsty; now they are satisfied. They knew tears and sorrow; now every tear is wiped away. They once felt exposed and alone; now they are sheltered, known, and loved. Why them? Because they were willing to let go of their old garments—their efforts to cover shame, clothe themselves in reputation or piety, or hide their brokenness. Instead, they came before God as they truly were, and the Lamb did what only he can—he washed them clean, gave them new life, and clothed them in his righteousness. All their striving was set aside. They rested in Christ's finished work. That is why they are dressed in white, and that is why they shout with joy. This is a vision of hope for us, too. Wherever we come from, whatever burdens or brokenness we may carry, the invitation is the same: to let go of hiding, to wash our lives in the grace of the Lamb, and to receive the new song of his salvation. You, too, are invited to put on these clean, white robes and stand in the joy and freedom of being fully seen, fully loved, and fully forgiven. Let us step into this new life today. Let us discard the old clothes of shame and fear, and be robed in the love and acceptance of Christ. May the song of salvation rise within us—a song strong enough to carry us through every trial, every sorrow, every joy. That's the prayer I have for my own soul today. That's the prayer I have for my family: for my wife, my daughters and my son. And that's the prayer I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Jesus is my shepherd. You have called me by my name into the life of the Beloved. Here in the stillness, I remember that I am not alone. I belong to you and to the great communion of saints and sinners held together in your love. Remind me, Lord, that every breath is grace, every encounter is a chance to give what I have received—mercy without measure. When I forget who I am, when I lose my way, lead me again to still waters. Restore my soul, renew my hope. Reroute me in the joy of simply being yours. Amen. And now, as our Lord has taught us, we are bold to pray: Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever.

For me, mastering the art of no-strings-attached sex was a total accident. Since I first wrote about dating Mexican men, I've been looking for a boyfriend on Bumble (i.e., a long-term, monogamish relationship). While my profile says I'm looking for “a fun, serious relationship with someone who lives in Mexico City,” that endeavor has proven to be very difficult. So I've been making casual pit stops into random men's pants to maintain my sanity and have a little fun.Today I'm going to share my very pseudo-scientific logic on how women aren't destined to be bonded forever to every guy we fucked.Come back for more…

Jason Murray—CEO & co-founder of Shipium and 19-year Amazon vet—joins Everything Is Logistics to unpack what really moves the needle for shippers: accurate delivery promises, multi-carrier execution, and where AI agents add real value today. We get into the “coordination layer” most retailers are missing across OMS/WMS/TMS, building a digital twin of your network, and why faster can actually be cheaper when your method mix and lanes are modeled correctly. Favorite line: Shipium's role is a “super-sophisticated calculator” for decisions the human brain (and spreadsheets) simply can't keep up with.Key takeawaysThe coordination gap is costly. Most enterprises make siloed decisions in OMS/WMS; the win is a horizontal optimizer that weighs transportation, inventory, and cost together. Promise precision beats blanket speed. Customers want confidence in “by Thursday,” not generic “2-day.” Model ship dates and probability of arrival—and constantly backtest your predictions. Digital twins drive smarter choices. Shipium models lanes, cutoffs, and costs in real time to choose carrier/method, where to ship from, and what to promise. AI agents = productivity multipliers. Early wins: a “what happened to this shipment?” chat workflow, and agents watching network signals (the old Amazon “little red button”) to trigger reroutes. Money on the table. Method optimization and delivery-promise installs have driven multi-million-dollar annual savings for large retailers. LINKS:Shipium's WebsiteJason's LinkedInWATCH THE FULL EPISODE HEREFeedback?

Promises get broken all the time. Maybe by a parent, a friend, or someone who said “forever” but didn't mean it. No wonder so many people question whether God is any different. But here's the good news: God always keeps His promises. And one of His greatest promises is this—when you cry out for help, He hears your voice. In this week's message, Pastor Shannon shows us from Psalm 18 why prayer matters and gives us five reasons we can trust God when we pray: God hears. God responds. God rescues. God strengthens. God turns our cries into praise. As we continue through 21 Days of Prayer & Fasting, let this message encourage you to lean into God's promise that prayer makes a difference.

Hope Church - Promises Made Promises Kept - The New Covenant in Ezekiel - 8_31_25 by Hope Church Utah

In these chapters we see two different kinds of people: one type of person takes God at his word and aims to fully possess all that God has promised. The other type sees all the reasons it won't work, all the reasons to be afraid, all the reasons to feel sorry for themselves. As we compare these examples, we are to hold a mirror up in front of ourselves and ask which type of person we most resemble.Sermon Outline:I. We Must Take Hold of God's Promises by FaithII. We Must Not Forfeit God's Promises Through Fear or CompromiseSermon Discussion Questions:1. In what ways might we, as Christians, fail to “claim” the spiritual inheritance that is ours in Christ? What keeps us from living in the fullness of God's promises?2. Caleb, Othniel, Achsah, and the daughters of Zelophehad demonstrated faithful boldness. How do their stories challenge the way you approach prayer, obedience, or decision-making today?3. What forms of fear, compromise, or self-pity do you see most commonly hindering Christians from whole-hearted discipleship today?4. How does remembering God's faithfulness in the past strengthen our faith for present challenges? What are some practical ways we can cultivate this kind of biblical memory in our daily walk with God?5. If you were to take inventory of your own walk with Christ, where do you see faithful boldness at work, and where do you see tendencies toward half-heartedness? What steps could you take this week to walk more fully in God's promises?

Life is full of “what ifs”, and often they are negative, right? They are usually full of fear and worrisome imaginations. And when you focus on all those “what ifs,” when you allow your mind to go to those negative possibilities, you become discouraged and frankly, miserable. So, let me ask you: How much time do you spend in the “what ifs” of life? In fear and worry, thinking about what could or might happen? Here's another “what if”: What if you changed “what if” to “even if”? Even if I lose my job, even if I get a bad health report, even if I'm robbed, even if someone I love dies. If you're born from above through faith in Jesus Christ, what if you faced your “what ifs” with truth from God's Word—truth that would set you free from the fear and worry and despair that your “what ifs” have caused? We have promises from God's Word we should throw in the face of our “what ifs.” Promises like: Isaiah 43:2: When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze. Hebrews 13:5: Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.” So, when you're facing a “what if,” stop and talk to yourself. Seriously, you need to talk to yourself—out loud if possible—and remind yourself of God's promises. Remind yourself of these truths. Bring those “what if” thoughts into captivity and make them obey the Lord. You remember the story of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, three Jewish young men who were forcibly taken from Jerusalem to Babylon to serve in King Nebuchadnezzar's court (Daniel 3). Shortly after they were forced into the service of this pagan king, they were faced with a direct affront to their faith in Jehovah God, as the king set up a golden image and ordered everyone to worship this pagan image or else be thrown into a fiery furnace. Talk about a “what if”! What if they continued to serve the true God, Jehovah, and refused to bow down and worship that golden idol? They would perish as young men in the prime of their lives. This was a serious what if; there was no question that refusing to obey the king's order would result in death. So, what was their decision? Here it is from Daniel 3:16-18: Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego replied to him, “King Nebuchadnezzar, we do not need to defend ourselves before you in this matter. If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God we serve is able to deliver us from it, and he will deliver us from Your Majesty's hand. But even if he does not, we want you to know, Your Majesty, that we will not serve your gods or worship the image of gold you have set up.” They went from “what if” to “even if” and declared their trust in their God to deliver them. Even if they were burned to death in the furnace, they would not bow to any other god. Maybe you're facing a fiery furnace of your own—something that could destroy you or so it seems. Maybe it's a financial furnace, or a health furnace, or a relationship furnace. You're in the “what if” stage as you face the furnace. Can you replace your “what if” with an “even if,” declaring that even if your fears are realized, even if the worst happens, you will trust in God to deliver you, to go through it with you, and to rescue you? Can you say with Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, “Even if he does not, I will trust him”? That is walking by faith and not by sight, and even if your faith seems small or weak, God will be pleased with your “even if,” and you can be sure he will get you through. I pray you will place your trust in the same God who delivered these young men and who will deliver you. Then there's the story of when God confronted Moses and told him he had a job for him to do—to face Pharaoh and deliver his people from bondage. Moses had a bunch of “what ifs.”
