Proverbs 4

In today's reading from Jeremiah, Fr. Mike points out how God rejoices in doing us good, and wants to pour out his grace and mercy upon us. As we begin reading from Judith, he explains that, while it might not be historically accurate, the story is there to convey truth. The readings are Jeremiah 32, Judith 1-2, and Proverbs 16:25-28.

Caller Questions & Discussion: Dr. Sheri explains why ambiguity can make us anxious and how a frightening choking incident reminded her that control is an illusion. All we have is right now. Taking life moment by moment can help us manage anxiety and uncertainty. When I read Proverbs 3:5-6, why do I have to trust anyone? It says to trust in the Lord with ALL of your heart. Am I using this verse to protect myself? God didn't command us to trust in anyone but Him but to love others. I've been separated from my wife for over 3 years, and my 18-year-old son with ADHD and learning disabilities lives with me. How do I help him launch? A fear always comes over me at sundown. I emigrated from Mexico when I was 7 and left my grandfather. I think my fear became worse because I always waited for someone to come home as I looked out the window.

Greater Glory – Episode Description The Dawn of a Fresh Anointing – Part 2 In the powerful conclusion of this two‑part series, Apostles Bill & Cara Nordeen guide viewers deeper into the walk, weight, and responsibility of the fresh anointing God is releasing. Part 2 focuses on how believers steward the dawn once it breaks—how to cultivate the oil, protect the light, and move in the authority that comes with a new season. This episode highlights the supernatural evidence of fresh anointing: sharpened discernment, accelerated obedience, divine opportunities, and a renewed boldness to confront darkness with the light of Christ. The Apostles teach how the dawn becomes day—how revelation becomes action, and how impartation becomes influence. Viewers will be empowered to carry the fresh anointing into every sphere of life, releasing the light of God wherever they go. "The path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day." (Proverbs 4:18) A new day has begun—and you are anointed to walk in it.

What does it mean to “sin against wisdom”? In Proverbs 8:35–36, Solomon says that whoever finds wisdom finds life, but whoever sins against wisdom injures himself. Dr. E explains what that means and why biblical wisdom is something we cannot afford to miss. The conversation also takes a closer look at Proverbs 31. Rather than presenting an impossible standard for women, Proverbs 31 gives us a picture of what a life shaped by wisdom looks like. And what does wisdom ultimately teach us about the future? We can smile at the future because we know who is in control. In This Episode: -What it means to “sin against wisdom” -The Hebrew meaning behind “sin” or “miss the mark” -Why Proverbs presents two ways of living -How Proverbs 31 personifies wisdom -What Proverbs 31 really teaches about a wise woman -How wisdom shapes work, marriage, family, and speech -Why wisdom allows us to face the future with confidence Chapters: 00:00 — Why We Can Smile at the Future 00:38 — Can You Sin Against Wisdom? 00:57 — Proverbs 8: Finding Wisdom and Finding Life 01:30 — What “Sin” Means: Missing the Mark 02:32 — When We Miss Wisdom, We Hurt Ourselves 03:19 — What Proverbs 31 Really Means 04:13 — Wisdom Is More Than a Checklist 05:16 — What Happens When We Pursue Wisdom 05:36 — Smiling at the Future 06:06 — Don't Miss Wisdom If you've got a question for Dr. Easley, call or text us your question at 615-281-9694 or email at question@michaelincontext.com.

Fr. Mike takes us through the last chapter of Daniel and explains how Daniel models for us on how to live in exile and still be faithful to the Lord. We also see in Jeremiah the Lord promise a new covenant that will ultimately be fulfilled in Jesus Christ. Today's readings are Jeremiah 31, Daniel 14, and Proverbs 16:21-24.

Proverbs 2

Welcome to Day 2940 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2940 – Wisdom Nuggets – Proverbs 3:29-35 Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2940 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2940 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. The title for today's Wisdom-Trek is: The Curse on Oppression and the Honor of the Humble – Walking in Friendship with the King On our previous podcast, on Day Two Thousand Nine Hundred Thirty-Eight, we explored Proverbs chapter three, verses twenty-one through twenty-eight. We discovered how hanging on to common sense and discernment brings unshakeable peace, sound sleep, and divine security during unexpected storms. We also learned the vital mandate of neighborly integrity—refusing to delay when we have the power to do good to someone in need today. Today, as we step onto Day Two Thousand Nine Hundred Forty of our ongoing trek, we arrive at the conclusion of Proverbs chapter three, focusing on verses twenty-nine through thirty-five. In these seven closing verses, Solomon completes his royal instructions on social ethics and divine covenant reality. He shifts our gaze from doing good to our neighbors, to actively refraining from harm, violence, and contentious conflict. Then, he pulls back the cosmic veil, showing us how the supreme King of heaven evaluates human pride and humility! Having spent over fifty years focusing on and studying Biblical wisdom, and having accumulated seventy years of life experiences—watching reputations built and destroyed, seeing family lineages thrive or crumble, and observing the ultimate end of arrogant oppressors—I am eager to walk through these powerful verses with you today. Let us open our hearts to the first logical pair of prohibitions regarding our daily human interactions, as recorded in the New Living Translation, grouping together the connected thoughts found in Proverbs chapter three, verse twenty-nine, and verse thirty. Don't plot harm against your neighbor, for those who live nearby trust you. Don't pick a fight without reason, when no one has done you harm. Look at the solemn ethical boundaries Solomon sets around our daily relationships! In verse twenty-nine, he commands, "Don't plot harm against your neighbor, for those who live nearby trust you." The Hebrew word for plot is charash—which literally means to plow or manufacture! Solomon warns against secretly manufacturing evil schemes against those who live right next door in quiet vulnerability and trust. Then, in verse thirty, he addresses contentious behavior, warning: "Don't pick a fight without reason, when no one has done you harm." The Hebrew word for picking a fight is riv—referring to legal disputes or aggressive verbal warfare. Solomon exposes a dark flaw in human nature: the temptation to exploit a trusting neighbor or stir up unnecessary drama simply to exert power. This connects directly back to what we studied in Proverbs chapter three, verse twenty-seven and verse twenty-eight, where we were commanded not to withhold good when it is in our power to act. Here, Solomon shows us the opposite side of the coin: a wise person never weaponizes their power to harm those who trust them! Over my seventy years of living, I have observed that trust is a fragile, sacred currency. Once you betray the trust of a neighbor, a business partner, or a friend, you fracture a relationship that may take decades to repair. The narrative now deepens, moving from covert scheming to the temptation of envying open oppression, weaving together the logical thoughts found in Proverbs chapter three, verse thirty-one, and verse thirty-two. Don't envy violent people or copy their ways. Such wicked people are detestable to the Lord, but he offers his friendship to the godly. Look at the urgent warning in verse thirty-one: "Don't envy violent people or copy their ways." The phrase "violent people" translates as ish chamas—a man of ruthless, predatory aggression! This links us right back to the warning we examined in Proverbs chapter one, verses ten through nineteen, where a gang of violent men tempted the youth to join their predatory ambush for quick riches. Culturally, ruthless people often appear to win in the short term. They cut corners, intimidate others, seize power, and amass wealth. Solomon commands us: do not envy them, and under no circumstances copy their methods! Look at the staggering cosmic reality Solomon reveals in verse thirty-two to explain why: "Such wicked people are detestable to the Lord, but he offers his friendship to the godly!" In the Hebrew text, a person who is "detestable" is an to'evah—an abomination, something utterly repulsive that cannot exist in the holy presence of God. Now, consider this through the Ancient Israelite divine-council worldview! In the heavenly court, where Yahweh sits enthroned surrounded by His celestial council, the ruthless oppressor who builds an empire through violence is viewed not as a successful leader, but as a repulsive outcast whose ways violate cosmic order. But look at what Yahweh offers to the "godly"—those who walk in integrity! He offers them His sod—His intimate friendship and secret counsel! In ancient royal courts, to be admitted into the king's sod meant sitting in his private cabinet. The ruthless man gets temporary plunder, but the humble, godly trekker is admitted into the divine council room, walking as an intimate friend of the King of the cosmos! In my fifty years of studying wisdom, I can assure you that no amount of worldly wealth or power can ever compare to walking in friendship with Almighty God. Solomon now expands this cosmic verdict from individual lives directly into the family home, as recorded in Proverbs chapter three, verse thirty-three. The Lord curses the house of the wicked, but he blesses the home of the righteous. Consider the long-term contrast presented in this single verse! The text contrasts the bayit—the house or household—of the wicked with the home of the righteous. The curse of Yahweh is the spiritual reality of divine opposition resting upon a household that builds its foundation on violence, deceit, and oppression. That house may look like a luxurious mansion on the outside, but its foundation is rotting from spiritual decay. In stark contrast, Yahweh "blesses the home of the righteous!" The word for "home" here is naveh—which refers to a peaceful dwelling, a meadow, or a resting place where a shepherd leads his flock. In my seven decades of life, having raised a family and watched generations grow, I have seen this spiritual law proven time and again. A home built on the fear of the Lord, covenant loyalty, and daily integrity becomes an oasis of peace, safety, and joy, passing down a rich spiritual legacy to children and grandchildren. But a home built on ruthless ambition and covert wickedness eventually collapses under the weight of its own curse. The narrative reaches its ultimate climax as Solomon contrasts how God responds to human pride versus human humility, combining the logical thoughts in Proverbs chapter three, verse thirty-four, and verse thirty-five. The Lord mocks the mockers, but is gracious to the humble. The wise inherit honor, but fools are burdened with disgrace. Look at the divine irony in verse thirty-four: "The Lord mocks the mockers, but is gracious to the humble!" The "mockers"—the letzim—are those arrogant scoffers who laugh at moral boundaries, mock the fear of God, and look down on others. Solomon reveals that Yahweh turns their own arrogance back upon them! This verse is so crucial that both Peter and James quote it directly in the New Testament, declaring that "God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble!" When a person walks in pride, the Almighty King sets Himself in active opposition against them; but when a person bows in humility, Yahweh pours out an endless river of unearned favor and grace. Solomon closes the entire third chapter of Proverbs with verse thirty-five: "The wise inherit honor, but fools are burdened with disgrace!" In the Hebrew language, the word for honor is kavod—which means heavy, weighty, enduring glory! The wise person, who walks in the fear of the Lord, inherits a heavy, lasting legacy of dignity that withstands the test of time. But the fool, who relied on self-conceit and violent shortcuts, ends up carrying a crushing burden of disgrace—qalōn—a shameful memory that blows away like dust. As we complete our trek through Proverbs chapter three today, take time to reflect on the two paths set before you. Are you maintaining integrity in your...

What if the ache within us is not something to push through alone, but an invitation toward healing? Stasi welcomes her son, counselor Sam Eldredge, for a tender conversation about loneliness, vulnerability, relationships, and the courage to face our stories honestly. Wherever we feel stuck or alone, Jesus is near—gently inviting us to open our hearts, receive the care we need, and follow him into freedom, restoration, and more life than we imagined possible.…..SHOW NOTES:…..VERSES: Revelation 1:18 (NIV) – I am the Living One; I was dead, and now look, I am alive for ever and ever! And I hold the keys of death and Hades.Genesis 2:18 (NIV) – The Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.”Proverbs 27:17 (NIV) – As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another. Isaiah 61:1 (NIV) – The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me, because the Lord has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners.…..SAM ELDREDGEWebsite: https://www.nobleworkshops.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nobleworkshopsSAM'S BIOSam Eldredge has spent his career in the space where psychology and faith meet. Trained in the modalities that form the backbone of Noble's work such as Internal Family Systems, experiential therapy, somatic practice, attachment theory, and EMDR-informed movement, he has spent over two decades watching what happens when people are given the right conditions to do the work they have been carrying.Noble Workshops grew out of that watching.Sam grew up immersed in the world of the heart. His formation was shaped deeply by the work of Wild at Heart, an organization that has spent decades helping people recover their inner lives and understand the story they are living. That foundation shaped his understanding of what people are actually hungering for: genuine movement, not just information. The freedom that comes when something long stuck finally begins to shift.Noble was Sam's response to a gap he kept seeing: people who had done meaningful work, who had language for their pain and faith in the possibility of change, and who still couldn't find a structure that allowed that change to actually take root. Weekly therapy sessions, however skilled the guide, have limits. Immersion changes what is possible.He founded Noble to offer something different. A week held with clinical rigor and genuine care, set apart from ordinary life, where the work can finally build on itself rather than reset on longer timelines.…..ADDITIONAL RESOURCESPainting: The Harrowing of HadesAndSons Podcast Archives: https://wildatheart.org/podcasts/and-sons…..Don't Miss Out on the Next Episode—Subscribe for FreeSubscribe using your favorite podcast app:YouTube – https://wahe.art/4h8DelLSpotify Podcasts – https://wahe.art/496zdfnApple Podcasts – https://apple.co/42E0oZ1 Amazon Music & Audible – https://amzn.to/3M9u6hJ

Gen. 1 Creation / Curse John 1 Jesus is the creator / came to break the curse The REZ is framed as a “Re-creation” not just resuscitation  2 Cor. 5:17 anyone in him is a new creation The curse and redemption are bookend in OT-NT Rev. 21,22 speak of a New Heaven and New Earth   CREATION IS STAMPED ALL OVER THE BIBLE!      …And we are called to emulate that trait of our Father!    HOW DID DAD CREATE God creates through His word, not raw material (ex nihilo creation) Genesis 1 repeatedly uses "and God said" — He speaks reality into existence       Proverbs 8:30 describes wisdom as being beside God "like a craftsman" (or "constantly" depending on translation), rejoicing in His presence and rejoicing in the inhabited world. Some translations render this as wisdom being God's "delight" day by day. This has strong creative/imaginative overtones — a Creator who delights in the process of creating, not just the outcome.     Psalm 104: 24 "How many are your works, LORD! In wisdom you made them all; the earth is full of your creatures." The sheer variety of creation (over 350,000 known species of beetles alone, if you want a modern illustration)     God does not expect perfection - just creation!  THERE IS NO 1 PERFECT BEETLE     True creativity does not focus on one perfect solution… one perfect beetle. But rather numerous solutions   **How to get great ideas by Jack Foster:  They asked students to come up with on great idea for a Swiss knife, they had all week to do it. They stumbled, its hard, its frustrating… they wrecked seeking perfection. So they changed their strategy. You have to come up with at least 10 and you only have your lunch break to do it. THEY ENJOYED IT MORE CREATIVE  MANY CAME UP WITH WAY MORE THAN 10 IDEAS     HOW DO WE CREATE - AS SEEN IN SCRIPTURE We create what's in us… **Remember when people hate you - they don't hate you, that just what's in them.   When people gossip When people attack your character When people steal When people posture above you When people feel insecure around you When people judge you ITS NOT YOU - THAT IS WHATS IN THEM   When we create - we create what is in us.  So make sure you are IN CHRIST!    The most successful people are not the smartest - they are the most creative… proven!    YOU DON'T NEED ANYTHING OTHER THAN THE HOLY SPIRIT.    WHY DO WE CREATE Its what we were made for…   In any activity that we find ourselves aligned/focused/flow **it is because we are operating something we were created for. AND WHEN WE CREATE - IT IS A DOUBLE BONUS - because we are creating - which is what we were created for.      NOW WATCH THIS Exodus 31:1-5 — God tells Moses He has called a man named Bezalel by name, and then says this: "I have filled him with the Spirit of God, with wisdom, with understanding, with knowledge, and with all kinds of skills — to make artistic designs for work in gold, silver and bronze, to cut and set stones, to work in wood, and to engage in all kinds of crafts.”   Stop and let that sink in. The first time scripture explicitly says someone was "filled with the Spirit of God," it's not a prophet, a king, It's not a warrior. It's a craftsman. An artist. A designer. God fills a man with His Spirit specifically to carve, engrave, and build beautiful things for the tabernacle.     NOW - here is the trifecta: We were created to create to bring attention to the creator!      **Lou Little, a football coach at Georgetown and later Columbia University tells the story of a young player. Not very gifted, but always tried hard. He sat on the bench most every game, but the coach was fond of him. This young mans father came to every game… one day the coach gets a telegram that this young mans father had passed away in the night. He tells the young man to take that game off - The boy refuses. Their team in the middle of the 3rd quarter is getting killed, the boy kept asking to go in, at this point the coach says… what can it hurt. The young man goes in and plays like he is an NFL superstar. After the game the coach asked him the difference. The young man said even though my dad came to every game he was blind - so today was the first day my dad could actually see me play.    What if we looked at creativity this way: God is watching us create so that we can bring him attention.   In business In art In technology In agriculture In social sciences In finance In music In sport What if we looked at it as if we are creating attention to the father.     EVERYONE WANTS TO MAKE THEIR DAD PROUD. How? By being creative in how we perform.

David Johnson discusses Proverbs 15:14—“The heart of him who has understanding seeks knowledge, but the mouth of fools feeds on foolishness.”

Presented by Julie Busteed Are you the kind of person who would rather do everything yourself than delegate or ask for help? I can be that way sometimes. It’s not because I think I can do everything better than everyone else. Sometimes it’s a control issue. Other times it simply feels like more work to explain the task, ask for help, and trust someone else to follow through. As I’ve thought about that, I’ve realized I sometimes treat my relationship with God the same way. Without even realizing it, I start acting as though everything depends on me and my effort, my planning, my ability to keep checking things off the list. And before long, I’m exhausted because I’m striving in my own strength instead of depending on his. As I’ve been learning to develop healthier rhythms that aren’t centered only on work and productivity, God has been showing me something. I wasn’t created to carry everything myself. More than anything, I need to trust him. I’m finite. He is not. I have limits. He doesn’t. One of my favorite passages is maybe a familiar one to you—Proverbs 3:5–6: Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. Those verses raise some honest questions for me. Do I really trust him in every area of my life? Or am I quietly depending on my own abilities, my own plans, my own resources? Do I truly believe he will lead me? That he has good purposes for today and for my future? Notice what the passage doesn’t say. It doesn’t tell me to figure everything out or make every path straight myself. It simply says to trust him and submit to him. That’s incredibly freeing. When I humble myself before God, remember his promises, and surrender my plans to him, I don’t have to carry the weight of being in control. I can rest in him. He already knows my limitations. He never expected me to do everything or carry every burden on my own. So how do we live this out? It’s one day at a time. Really, one moment at a time. It’s choosing to seek him throughout the day instead of relying only on ourselves. And it’s choosing to set aside one day each week to stop striving. To let go of the unfinished work. To trust him with everything waiting for us next week. Sabbath rest becomes an act of trust. It’s where our minds, emotions, and bodies are refreshed. It’s where we stop toiling long enough to remember that God is still at work, even when we aren’t.

What does it really mean to "trust in the Lord with all thine heart" when life looks nothing like you expected? In this Come, Follow Me episode, Heather talks with LDS life coach Jenn Zingmark about the wisdom found in Proverbs and Ecclesiastes and how these teachings can help us navigate uncertainty, difficult relationships, fear, grief, and unexpected seasons of life. Together, they explore: Why trusting God doesn't require knowing how everything will work out How focusing on your "next right step" can calm overwhelm and help you move forward Why faith and fear can coexist, and which one we can choose to act from How a "soft answer" can change difficult conversations without requiring us to ignore our real feelings Why grief deserves to be honored rather than rushed What Ecclesiastes teaches us about accepting the different seasons of our lives These scriptures remind us that life is not always perfect when we follow God, but it is better when we trust and follow Him. Heather and Jenn bring a coaching perspective to that invitation, showing what trust, intentional communication, and acceptance can look like in everyday life. Listen in and discover how these ancient words of wisdom can become practical tools for whatever season you are navigating right now.

You had the best intentions. You picked your words carefully. So why did it still go sideways? In this episode of Continuing the Conversation, Craig Smith and Colin McFarland dig into one of the most practically useful ideas from Sunday's message in the Proverbs series — the difference between knowing a truth and knowing when and how to speak it. They unpack a framework of three Ms: motive, manner, and moment. Get one wrong and even the most important truth can land like a grenade. Craig shares a real and surprisingly difficult example — what should a pastor's wife say when her husband genuinely isn't a strong preacher? — to show just how layered these situations get in real life. Colin pushes back with a great observation: most of us check one or two boxes and convince ourselves that's enough. It's not. All three have to be in place. This episode also goes behind the scenes of sermon prep — including the rare week Craig had to trash a nearly finished message and start over days before Sunday, and why single-verse preaching makes him more anxious than almost anything else. 

In this episode of Wake Up, Look Up, Pastor Zach explores the growing tendency for teenagers to self-diagnose mental and emotional struggles and the challenge this creates for parents. He encourages parents to look beyond the labels their children use and instead take time to listen, ask questions, and draw out what is really happening in their hearts and minds. Drawing from Proverbs 25, Pastor Zach reminds us that wisdom means learning to navigate the deep waters of the heart and creating a culture where honest conversation can flourish.Have an article you'd like Pastor Zach to discuss?

The Messenger of the {New} Covenant {Jesus} Is Coming – Is He Coming to Purify You or to Judge You? MESSAGE SUMMARY: The people, in God's Judgment articulated in Malachi 3:5, are the people of God. These people are not the unbelievers; these are the people that say they are following God. Malachi 3:5, articulates those transgressions, including the absence of a “fear of the lord”, in which God: “will draw near to you for judgment. I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, against the adulterers, against those who swear falsely, against those who oppress the hired worker in his wages, the widow and the fatherless, against those who thrust aside the sojourner, and do not fear me, says the LORD of hosts.” To this end, Paul reminds us again in Romans 2:4-5 of a pathway to or away from God's Judgment: “Or do you presume on the riches of his kindness and forbearance and patience, not knowing that God's kindness is meant to lead you to repentance? But because of your hard and impenitent heart you are storing up wrath for yourself on the day of wrath when God's righteous judgment will be revealed.". Additionally, in Proverbs 1:7 we find that the “fear of the Lord” provides us with “wisdom”. On the other hand and in the absence of our “fear of the Lord”, Proverbs 1:7 tells us that we are “foolish”: “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction.”. The messenger of the Covenant is coming – He is coming to either purify you or to judge you.   TODAY'S PRAYER: Father, I confess that when difficulties and trials come into my life, large or small, I mostly grumble and complain. I realize the trials James talks about are not necessarily “walls,” but they are difficult to bear, nonetheless. Fill me with such a vision of a transformed life, O God, that I might actually consider it “pure joy” when you bring trials my way. I believe, Lord. Help my unbelief. In Jesus' name, amen.     Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 94). Zondervan. Kindle Edition.

ALL IN Pt. 2 |  AUGUST 30, 2026Pastor Wes MorrisMatthew 14:22-32 (NLT) Immediately after this, Jesus insisted that his disciples get back into the boat and cross to the other side of the lake, while he sent the people home. After sending them home, he went up into the hills by himself to pray. Night fell while he was there alone.Meanwhile, the disciples were in trouble far away from land, for a strong wind had risen, and they were fighting heavy waves. About three o'clock in the morning Jesus came toward them, walking on the water. When the disciples saw him walking on the water, they were terrified. In their fear, they cried out, “It's a ghost!”But Jesus spoke to them at once. “Don't be afraid,” he said. “Take courage. I am here!”Then Peter called to him, “Lord, if it's really you, tell me to come to you, walking on the water.”“Come,” Jesus said.So Peter went over the side of the boat and walked on the water toward Jesus. But when he saw the strong wind and the waves, he was terrified and began to sink. “Save me, Lord!” he shouted.Jesus immediately reached out and grabbed him. “You have so little faith,” Jesus said. “Why did you doubt me?”When they climbed back into the boat, the wind stopped. Then the disciples worshiped him. “You really are the Son of God!” they exclaimed.1. JESUS SENT THEM ACROSS THE LAKE KNOWING A STORM WAS COMING.Being in a difficult season doesn't mean I'm in the wrong place.2. THE STORM WAS STILL HAPPENING WHEN PETER LEFT THE BOAT.Don't wait for perfect conditions to obey God.3. OUT OF THE TWELVE DISCIPLES, ONLY PETER STEPPED OUT.Faith is personal. I have to know what Jesus is asking of me.4. PETER ASKED FOR A WORD BEFORE HE TOOK A STEP.Matthew 14:28 (NLT) Then Peter called to him, “Lord, if it's really you, tell me to come to you, walking on the water.”God's calling gives me the confidence to keep going.TAKE THE STEPI. TRUST JESUS MORE THAN YOUR FEAR.Matthew 14:30–31 (NLT)But when he saw the strong wind and the waves, he was terrified and began to sink. ‘Save me, Lord!' he shouted. Jesus immediately reached out and grabbed him.”Psalm 56:3 (NLT) When I am afraid, I will put my trust in you.II. DO WHAT GOD IS ASKING YOU TO DO.Proverbs 3:5-6 (NLT) Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Wednesday morning, the 2nd of September, 2026, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We go to that very well-known scripture, Isaiah 40:31: ”But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.” The Lord often uses the eagle as an example of how you and I should live. The eagle is a solitary bird, he is an amazing bird. He doesn't hang around on the power lines with the crows and gossip and talk about all the unsavoury things. No, no, no! He is a solitary bird. You will never see a flock of eagles flying around. No, they are solitary birds. He is majestic in his habits. Yes, he flies alone, and he flies at a very high altitude. They tell me that the eagle has incredibly powerful vision. He can see something like 3 miles away, that is over 5 kms, from where he is flying, and I am just thinking of Proverbs 29:18 - where there is no vision, the people perish. Some of us need to lift up our eyes. We are looking too low, folks. We really need a vision from God. If you have no vision, that means you have nothing to look forward to, nothing to get up for in the morning, nothing to study about, nothing to work on. We need to be like the eagle. He has got vision. He is also a bird that has got freedom. He is not confined in a space. If you put an eagle in a cage, he will die. He was not designed to be in a cage, neither were you and I. The Lord has set us free. If the Lord sets you free, you will be free indeed. He has also got incredible strength for his size. I have seen some of those eagles. They will tackle a fox, pick it up with their talons, and destroy it. They have got power and are very bold. He doesn't spend time eating dead, rotten prey. We, as Christians, we must have a faith that is alive and healthy. He loves storms. The other birds have to shelter in the storms. He loves the storms. He locks his wings, he catches those thermals in the air and he screams out when the storms get bigger. He doesn't fly away. As Christians, we need to know that Jesus is with us. He continually renews himself, pulls out his old feathers and allows new ones to grow. He has a personality, leadership abilities, mental habits, sharp focus, and emotional resilience. Today, let us be like that eagle and make the Lord Jesus proud that we are His children. God bless you and have a wonderful day.Goodbye.
