In Jude's closing benediction, we're given one of the most stabilizing promises in all of Scripture: God is able to keep you from stumbling (Jude 1:24). In this episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef explains why saving faith is not only God's gift—but also God's sustaining work. You are not kept by fear-driven performance; you are kept by Christ's faithful power. Dr. Youssef brings this promise to life through the imagery behind Jude's words: Jewish wedding traditions. In betrothal, the groom would seal the commitment with a costly dowry—then return home to prepare a place—then come again for his bride with joyful announcement. In the same way, Jesus—our Bridegroom—paid the highest price with His own blood, returned to the Father to prepare a place, and will come again. And when He does, He will present His redeemed bride without blemish or stain, declaring what His cross and resurrection accomplished. This devotional strengthens believers living in dark seasons of apostasy and pressure: keep your eyes on the future Christ secured. When you feel weak, unstable, or tempted to spiral into “trying harder,” remember the Truth—Jesus is holding you up. He will keep you from falling. Prayer: Father, help me to rest in the Truth that You will never let me go. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen.  “[T]o the only God our Savior be glory, majesty, power and authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord, before all ages, now and forevermore! Amen” (Jude 1:25). Learn more in Dr. Michael A.

Why do New Testament greetings consistently begin with grace and then peace? In today's episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef answers with a Gospel cornerstone: no one can experience the peace of God before receiving the grace of God. Grace is the doorway; peace is the fruit. Anchored in Christ's finished work, believers have peace yesterday, today, and forever. Jesus bore the punishment that brought us peace (Isaiah 53:5), and God made the sinless Savior to be sin for us so we could be declared righteous (2 Corinthians 5:21). That means peace isn't a mood—it's a restored relationship with God. And grace doesn't only reconcile us vertically; it reshapes our relationships horizontally. As we walk in the Spirit, we can extend grace and forgiveness to others, reflecting the peace we've received. Finally, Dr. Youssef lifts our eyes to the future: a day when shalom—complete wholeness—will be perfected forever, with no more tears, pain, or brokenness (Revelation 21:4). Are you resting in Christ's grace—and therefore His peace—right now? Prayer: God, I praise You for the grace and peace You have given to me. Help me to own it in the present in my relationships with You and others as I anticipate my future in the glory of Christ. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen. “But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed” (Isaiah 53:5).

Everyone is created in God's image, but only those who have been called to follow Jesus have become children of God—and that identity changes everything. In today's episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef anchors your heart in the Father's lavish love (1 John 3:1) and the unshakable security that flows from belonging to Christ. Because you are His: you can fight temptation through the power of the Holy Spirit, you can have peace in turmoil, you can contend for the faith with courage, and you can rest knowing no one can snatch you from God's hand (John 10:28–29) and nothing can separate you from His love (Romans 8:38–39). That security also confronts complacency. Dr. Youssef reminds us that true believers cannot habitually live in careless disobedience. We may still struggle with sin, but conviction drives us back to confession and repentance—and gratitude compels us to submit to the whole counsel of God's Word. Finally, this devotional clarifies a vital tension in today's culture: God's love does not muddy Truth. Love does not excuse false teaching or “baptize” sin into the Church. Love speaks the Truth—even when it's unpopular—because the Gospel is the power of God for salvation (Romans 1:16). If you've felt intimidated by accusations of narrow-mindedness, this episode will strengthen you to stand firm, love freely, and contend faithfully. Prayer: Lord, embolden me to proclaim Your Truth in love, that more might come to know eternal life in Christ. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen. “To those who have been called, who are loved in God the Father and kept for Jesus Christ: Mercy, peace and love be yours in abundance” (Jude 1:1-2). Learn more in Dr. Michael A.

By Michael A. Youssef, Ph.D. Read John 19:28-30. Just before He died, Jesus declared, “It is finished” (John 19:30). In English it's three words, but in Greek it's a single, triumphant word: Tetelestai—a perfect passive verb meaning the work has been fully accomplished, and its effects continue on and on. In today's episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef unpacks why that matters for your faith right now. On the cross, Jesus completed everything necessary for salvation—atonement for sin, forgiveness, reconciliation with the Father, and an everlasting place in God's family. And because Christ's sacrifice is sufficient, its life-changing power continues to reach people from every nation as they confess Jesus as Lord and believe God raised Him from the dead. Dr. Youssef also reminds us this has always been God's plan: Old Testament believers were saved by faith in what God would accomplish through the coming Messiah. From Genesis to the prophets to the Psalms, Scripture anticipated the moment the serpent-crushing Savior would declare, Tetelestai—and nothing can separate those in Christ from God's love. This episode calls you to rest in the finished work of Jesus—and to proclaim it boldly to a world still trying to earn what Christ has already completed. Prayer: Lord, I praise You that it is finished! By Your incredible grace, You have redeemed me from the grave. May I lovingly and boldly share Your Good News with those You put in my life. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen. “When he had received the drink, Jesus said, ‘It is finished.' With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit” (John 19:30). Learn more in Dr. Michael A.

Stephen and Sandra Hogue always wanted to start a family of their own. But after struggling with infertility for 7 years, they knew they would need to move adoption to the forefront of their plans. They began their journey into adoption with the foster care program. And that's when they realized how broken it was. In 2013, they felt led to leave their very secure jobs and venture out in the unknown, become missionaries, and be a part of the solution for foster care communities. So, that's exactly what they did. Their vision for OneFamily is to connect local churches and the community to help them become a part of that solution, too. Because when the family flourishes, the community flourishes.

Is it possible to get “unsaved” once you become a believer in Jesus? Did your prayer to Jesus, “take?” Many people have doubts a while after they place their trust in Jesus – it’s normal. Pastor Matthew Anderson helps us wade through the doubts and worries showing us that if the object of our faith is Jesus alone, then nothing can separate us from the love of God. Reassuring.

Why was the Apostle Paul so convinced that nothing could separate us from the love of God? Journey together with the Apostle Paul and receive a greater revelation of God's love for you. As you listen be blessed, empowered and transformed in Jesus' name.
