Acts 2:42-47 Jerusalem after the death, resurrection and ascension of Jesus was marked by the explosion of a new religion. Jesus' disciples sparked a revolution unlike any other in history as people from all over the Middle East, North Africa and Eastern Europe witnessed the events of pentecost, and heard the gospel in their own languages. About 3,000 people became followers of "the way" that day and became new creations in Christ Jesus. Their faithful lives as the early church was marked with trials and persecution, but nothing could stamp out the movement of God's Kingdom. So what made these radicals so effective? And how can we learn from their way of being an unstoppable worshiping community?
In this episode of The Encourager Podcast, I share a vulnerable story about a Monday when I got everything done—but missed one of the most important moments of my week. That moment led to a heart shift: from serving efficiency as a god, to seeing it as a tool that should support (not replace) my values and mission. This episode invites you to pause, reflect, and realign how you approach productivity—through the lens of intentionality, connection, and grace.

Big Idea: Worship your God Who will bring you home in peace.
Pastor Will Hatfield - John 12 & 14
In this message from Pastor Chris, we're invited to consider what it means to truly trust God, not just with our beliefs but with our survival. As the Israelites journey through the unknown, God provides in unexpected ways and calls them into rhythms of rest that challenge everything they've known. What if stopping is actually a test of faith? This ancient story uncovers the deep connection between trust, provision, and the practice of Sabbath, and it asks whether we're ready to let God be enough.

*Listen to the Show notes and podcast transcript with this multi-language player. INTRODUCTION: Worship is a state of heart, not a program. A true believer has lost a lot of his interest in “things.” He puts his focus on the realm that is higher than the senses—the realm of spirit. What emerges in a believer's spirit is the seeking to be in the Lord's presence. He learns that the real thing the Father is seeking is a people who worship in spirit and truth. SHOW NOTES: Believers are coming to know by revelation that their main purpose in life is to worship the Lord. Worshiping the Lord means walking away from a love of the world that exalts itself above Christ and enthroning Him in all that you do. The Lord brings forth the worship in a believer who has a relationship with Him' It's important to be diligent to break out of ruts and develop an awareness of the Holy Spirit leading each day. Drawing His presence into everything you do is freeing and can be creative. A big part of the heart of worship is being thankful. Christ was worship to the Father; the Body of Christ is to follow His example. QUOTATIONS: Worship is not singing songs; it is absolutely coming into His presence with that in our hearts and giving Him the honor, giving Him the glory, giving Him the praise. When you worship, or you respect somebody, you usually lay down your thoughts and your ways when you come in their presence, because you're honoring them. You can get up in the morning, set your spirit in worship, and it will affect everything you do all day long. I believe that as spiritual beings, if we start our day the way that He intends for us to start it, we will live in the Spirit continually throughout the day. When you're crazy in love, who do you talk about? The one you love! Worship is who I am, not what I do, and so, if that 's true as we go through our days, everything can be worship. We have the true worship residing within us. REFERENCES:
Is God worthy of our worship and praise? If so, how can help lead our hearts into genuine worship of Him in times where we may not feel particularly worshipful? Learning how to lead our hearts according to the gospel rather than to be led around by how we feel in a particular moment is an important part of our discipleship. Learning to present our bodies as a living sacrifice (Romans 12:1) and to love God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength (Mark 12:30) are part of that process. As we explore our value of being 'a worshiping people,' we talk about the choice to engage our minds, mouths, and even our physical bodies in praising God, and the promise that accompanies Christ's invitation to do this.

(Ephesians 2:4-7) God's perfect salvation takes care of your past, your present, and your future! The eternal Son of God has worked for our salvation. He continues to work at this very moment, and He will finish His work in us! Salvation is more than an event - it is God's perfect work in his children. (0959250307) ----more---- Salvation by Grace Through Faith Will you permit me one more day? Just one more day to talk to you about what the Bible says about salvation? Honestly, I'm just having a good time in the word of God, having a good time talking to you about what it means to be saved. Because I know what Jesus Christ has done for me, and I'm starting to see more and more of what God says about this in scripture. And it's thrilling. It's thrilling to talk about. I hope you'll talk about it to someone else. I hope you'll get so excited. You'll wanna pass this along and share it with others. What does the Bible say about salvation? The last time we talked, I read you from Ephesians chapter two, verse eight and nine, famous verses, "For by grace you saved through faith. And that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God, not of works, lest any man should boast." And we learn that it's all of grace and it's a gift. It's received by simple faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. But let's return to Ephesians two, to the verses that precede those verses. The Bible says in Ephesians two, verse four, "But God who is rich in mercy for his great love wherewith, he loved us even when we were dead in sins, have quickened us together with Christ By grace, you're saved. And it raised us up together and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus that in the ages to come, he might show the exceeding riches of his grace and his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus." Do you hear again, the past, present, and future tenses? One of the things I want you to see is that we think in time, but God who's eternal is not in time. He's working in our lives in a way that is continual, that there's no end to. He began his work of redemption in the very beginning of time. In Genesis chapter three, that's where we started our study. He promised Messiah was coming. All of scriptures, really the story of redemption. And when the Lord Jesus Christ came, he paid for the send debt of every man. When you come to the Lord Jesus Christ by faith, that work of salvation begins in your life. And there's so many things connected to that. Key Bible Terms About Salvation There's so many Bible words that you should study. For example, a substitution. Did you know when Jesus died on the cross? He took your place. He literally died for your sins, and he died as you. That's part of the doctrine of salvation. What about redemption? Redemption is to pay a price, to buy something back by paying a price. Did you know that's what he did for you when he died on the cross? He redeemed you with his own precious blood. How about the Bible word propitiation. He is the propitiation for our sin. That's a big word. What does it mean? It means to satisfy. Did you know when Jesus Christ paid the sin, debt on the cross? He satisfied a holy God. He satisfied the justice of God so that you could go free, so that you could be saved. What about the word reconciliation? It means that Jesus Christ took a holy God in one hand and sinful humanity in the other, and made a way to bring the two together. He reconciled us to God. When you come to the Lord Jesus and you take Him as your savior, what happens? How about this Bible word regeneration? It means new birth. Remember, Jesus said, you must be born again. To be regenerated is to be redeemed, made new. He doesn't make you a little better. He makes you a totally new person. He gives you a new nature. He comes to live inside of you himself. How about the word justification? Someone said that means just as if I'd never sin. Oh, it's better than that. No, it's not just that he deals with a negative. He declares you righteous. He puts his righteousness on your account. So now it's not just as if you had never sinned, it's just as if you had never even been a sinner. Did you know when you receive Jesus as your savior, all of his righteousness goes on your record. So when God looks at you, he no longer sees you as a sinner, though you have a sin nature, he no longer sees you as a sinner. He sees you as his own son. How about this word, the word adoption. We've been adopted, made part of the family of God. We've been given the spirit of adoption. Isn't that glorious? It means the Holy Spirit brings us into the family conversation. That's what we have in prayer. That's how we can come boldly to God and pray because we've been given that spirit. I'm just simply saying all of these words reveal great truth about what happened at Calvary and what happens in us when we receive the Lord Jesus as our personal savior.How about this word? It's a little scary to some people. Sanctification. Did you know sanctification is in the Bible? It's found 31 times in the New Testament. It has to do with God setting us apart setting us apart to himself. Did you know that started on the day you got saved on that day, you were saved on that day. The Lord Jesus Christ set you apart from the penalty of sin. That means God's never gonna turn his back on you. Never gonna pour out his wrath on you, never gonna send you to hell. Positionally, you are saved. You have been set apart to God. You are now viewed as holy. You are viewed as one with Jesus Christ. He dealt with a penalty of your sin, but sanctification is still going on in your life. That's what I mean when I say salvation is continuing in me. I have been saved from the penalty of sin, but I'm being saved today from the power of sin. God is working in me right now, continuing to sanctify, continuing to work in me, to set me apart to himself to get wicked things out of my heart and out of my mind and out of my life. Jesus Christ died on the cross so that I could be saved, but he sits to the right hand of the Father at this moment praying for me. Do you know why he's doing that? Because I need this continual work of sanctification done in my life. And someday, oh yes, someday He's gonna perfect it. The Future of Salvation When the Lord Jesus comes back and I go to be with him, I'm gonna be saved on that day from the very presence of sin. I'm looking forward to that day. How about you? You won't have this sinful world to live in. You won't have the devil to deal with. You won't have sinful flesh, and those old sin, nature urges to contend with and battle with every day. Isn't that gonna be glorious? You see your salvation, you've received it completely. There's some things that you've not yet fully realized. For example, your body's not yet saved. Have you figured that out yet? You're still dealing with that old body, aren't you? But you're going to receive a new body someday, and you're going to be with the one who saved you. The Lord Jesus Christ has already bought and paid for all of this, and someday it's going to be complete. Isn't that gonna be wonderful? And then we're gonna spend all of eternity with the one who saved us. Worshiping him, serving him, and just enjoying him forever. I have been saved. I am being saved, and I shall be saved. Listen to Ephesians two again, but God who is rich in mercy for his great love where they loved us, even when we were dead and sins of quickened us together with Christ, by grace, you are saved and have raised us up together and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. That's where I'm at right now. I'm living here on earth, but spiritually speaking, I'm seated with Jesus Christ at the right hand of the Father. I have access to all of heaven's resources. I have access to God himself through the Lord Jesus Christ. That's present tense, but there's more to come. Verse seven says that in the ages to come, he might show the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness tortoise through Christ Jesus, friends, the Lord Jesus Christ is going to perfect everything he set in motion in your life. That's why salvation truly is so great. Only God could do something so wonderful in the lives of such sinners. Personal Salvation I'd like to challenge you as we conclude this study about what the Bible says about salvation today. Don't let it be academic. Oh, make it personal. Would you do two things today in application? Number one, would you take a moment when this broadcast is done and just sit quietly somewhere and just thank the Lord. Just thank him for saving you. Thank you, Jesus, for not letting me go to hell. If it wasn't for Jesus, we'd all be in hell or on our way there. Praise God for salvation. But number two, don't keep it to yourself. Tell somebody else today how you came to know the Lord Jesus as your personal savior, what he means to you now that you're saved what you have to look forward to and how they too can know the only savior, the Lord Jesus Christ. Repeating what other people have said about the Bible is not enough. Outro and Resources We must know the biblical reason behind what we believe. We hope you will visit us at etj.bible to access our Library of Bible teaching resources, including book-by-book studies of scripture. You'll also find studies to watch, listen to, or read. We are so grateful for those who pray for us, who share the biblical content and for those who invest to help us advance this ministry worldwide. Again, thank you for listening, and we hope you'll join us next time on enjoying the Journey.

The blood represents the application of that truth—the active embodiment of desire into reality. Neville emphasizes that knowing the truth is not enough; one must apply it through assumption and persistence.Key ConceptsThe Birth of Christ WithinEvery natural birth is accompanied by the flow of water and blood.This symbolizes the process of spiritual rebirth—the transition from passive to active consciousness.The birth of Christ is the awakening of the creative power within man.Something from Nothing: The Mystery of ManifestationCreation is bringing life out of seeming death, something out of nothing.The world sees cause and effect in the external, but true causation is internal.The assumption of a desired state, though unseen, will externalize as reality.Water as Truth, Blood as ApplicationWater represents knowledge of the law: imagining creates reality.Blood represents the active assumption of the imagined state.Only by embodying the assumption can desires be brought into the world.The Death of the Old StateTo manifest a new reality, one must die to the old state of mind.This means completely abandoning previous beliefs and assumptions.The world calls this process irrational, but it is the path to creation.Faithful Persistence Brings the Incarnation of DesireImagining vividly and living in the assumption crystallizes it into fact.The world will try to trace changes back to visible causes, but all change originates within.Every person lives in an infinite world of invisible states—what we dwell in determines our reality.Key ThemesThe incarnation of Christ is the awakening of man's imagination as creative power.The death of God is complete forgetfulness of his divine nature to become man.The resurrection of Christ is man's realization that he is God in expression.Worshiping idols (external gods) is a misunderstanding—God is within.Every assumption, if persisted in, will harden into fact.Practical ApplicationIdentify your desire clearly and see it vividly in your mind's eye.Assume the feeling of already possessing it.Persist in that assumption until it externalizes in reality.Do not seek external validation—creation happens within.Understand that all transformation requires death—the shedding of old beliefs. ***Download the free Neville Goddard PDF Guide at manifestwithneville.com - Discover the transformative power of Neville Goddard's wisdom with this FREE 60-page guide on his 12 timeless principles of manifestation and reality creation.★ Follow the podcast for daily lectures from the mystic Neville Goddard ★FREE RESOURCES:• Join the FREE Neville Goddard newsletter• Join the FREE Telegram Channel• Feeling is the Secret • Full Audiobook* * *The James Xander Trip Podcast:• Listen on Spotify• Listen on Apple Podcasts• Listen on YouTubeDIVE DEEPER:• The Unlock God Mode Course• The Infinite Wealth Guided Meditation* * *ABOUT NEVILLE GODDARD:Neville Goddard (1905-1972), was an English writer, speaker and mystic. He grew up in Barbados and moved to the United States of America as a young adult. Neville Goddard was perhaps the last century's most intellectually substantive and charismatic purveyor of the philosophy generally called New Thought. He wrote more than ten books under the solitary pen name Neville, and was a popular speaker on metaphysical themes from the late 1930s until his death in 1972.Possessed of a self-educated and uncommonly sharp intellect, Neville espoused a spiritual vision that was bold and total: Everything you see and experience, including other people, is the result of your own thoughts and emotional states. Each of us dreams into existence an infinitude of realities and outcomes. When you realize this, Neville taught, you will discover yourself to be a slumbering branch of the Creator clothed in human form, and at the helm of limitless possibilities.Neville's thought system influenced a wide range of spiritual thinkers and writers, from bestselling author Dr. Joseph Murphy to Rhonda Byrne and Wayne Dyer.He has inspired and continues to inspire millions of readers around the world.* * *SOCIALS:• Neville Goddard Newsletter• Neville Goddard Telegram• Neville Goddard Instagram• Neville Goddard Threads• Neville Goddard Twitter• Neville Goddard YouTube* * *ABOUT THE COURSEUnlock God Mode is a transformative 30-day course designed to accelerate your journey towards greater wealth, love, and success through a deeper understanding and manipulation of your reality.

Stephanie engages in a heartfelt conversation with renowned worship leader Darlene Zschech, who likes to remind us that learning to trust God is a superpower! Darlene invites us into a life of authentic worship. She challenges us to cultivate a heart rooted in humility, to pursue genuine connection with God, and to understand the profound impact of living a life centered around worship. Darlene emphasizes the necessity of approaching worship without pressure or performance. She underscores that God's love is unconditional and is not influenced by our achievements or failures. This invites us to worship and create from a place of freedom, where we can focus on building a sincere relationship with God rather than seeking approval or validation from others. Darlene shares her own journey, highlighting how she learned to adore God not for His gifts or as a task to check off, but simply to be in His presence. God's delight in us is not contingent upon our accomplishments, but is inherent to our relationship with Him. Engaging with God without any agenda other than presence leads to an authentic worship experience. Darlene's wisdom reminds us that trusting God is a superpower. Her personal experiences, including battling cancer, illustrate God's faithfulness and the necessity of discerning His voice. Humility in worship is non-negotiable. Darlene speaks to the trap of self-sufficiency, particularly for those naturally inclined to leadership and capability. She insists on the importance of shedding self-reliance and embracing humility to fully trust and depend on God. In a world craving attention, Darlene values the hidden life and the importance of remaining true to worship's essence. Her journey reminds us to fight for a culture of truth and humility. Darlene's experiences illustrate the significance of nurturing deep roots in God's Word and maintaining accountability in our faith walk. She cautions against the allure of fame and the pressure to create commercialized versions of worship, advocating instead for a focus on genuine expression that aligns with God's heart. Darlene's testimony of God's faithfulness during her battle with cancer is particularly moving, as she reminds us to trust both God's whisper and shouts alike. Nurturing a close relationship with God prepares us to discern His guidance during pivotal moments. Stephanie asks Darlene about the church's role in cultivating worship leaders. Darlene stresses the importance of mentoring and discipleship within worship teams, encouraging leaders to uphold a culture of truth, confidence, and humility. This environment ensures that the focus remains on facilitating worship towards God rather than self-glorification. Darlene's experience with Christians in India teaches us about true devotion and reliance on God. When comfort isn't an option, desperation calls out to God, showcasing His incredible faithfulness. Here are some of the key insights Stephanie will remember from her conversation with Darlene. Make them your own, or add some more! 1. Embrace Your Identity in Christ: God loves you unconditionally, regardless of your actions or achievements. 2. Delight in God's Presence: Prioritize spending time with God, not just for what you can gain, but for simply being with Him. 3. Practice Humility and Confidence: Strive for the combination of these qualities in your faith and life. 4. Cultivate a Life of Worship: Lead others to focus on God's worth, not your own abilities. 5. Seek to Align Desires with God's Will: Spend time in His word to align your heart with His plan. 6. Nurture a Hidden Life: Value your private relationship with God over public recognition. 7. Be Anchored in a Sure Foundation: Start each day with devotion and prayer, positioning yourself for what the day brings. 8. Serve with Excellence: Honor God through high standards in your work, recognizing Him as the source of your abilities. 9.

CONNECT WITH DARLENE ZSCHECH https://www.darlenezschech.com/ “First and foremost, I am a woman who simply and wholeheartedly loves Christ, and serves Him through loving my family, serving the church, and speaking up for those who cannot speak for themselves.” – Darlene Zschech Darlene Zschech is an award-winning Australian singer-songwriter, worship leader, pastor, author, and speaker. With three GMA Dove Award nominations, the winner of GMA's International Award for influence in praise and worship, and the achievement of 16 Gold and one Platinum ARIA album, her songs have reached many nations around the world. However, Darlene's success simply stands as a testimony to her life's passion for serving God, her family and people with all her heart. Alongside her husband Mark, they are the Senior Pastors of Hope Unlimited Church (HopeUC) on the Central Coast of New South Wales, Australia, which now has churches in the US and India. Darlene is perhaps most famous for the worship anthem “Shout to the Lord,” a song that has been sung by millions and translated into multiple languages. In addition to “Shout to the Lord,” Darlene's catalog includes “In Jesus Name,” “Victor's Crown”, “Worthy is the Lamb,” and over a hundred others which have greatly contributed to the worship in the contemporary Church worldwide. Darlene is passionate about raising and training other worship pastors, leaders, teams, and writers. To this end, she has penned six books which have been translated internationally. Darlene and Mark live in the beautiful Central Coast of New South Wales with their family: Amy and her husband Andrew, Chloe and her husband Hosanna, Zoe and her husband Matthew and their six beautiful grandchildren Ava, Roman, Ruthie, Thea, Elias and Nora. MORE ABOUT “TESTAMENT”, DARLENE'S LATEST ALBUM New album "Testament" is not just about memories, it's a statement that worship leads to encountering Christ afresh in every moment. Australian worship leader Darlene Zschech unveils her highly anticipated studio album, “Testament.” The new release marks the milestone 30-year anniversary of “Shout to the Lord,” a song that became an anthem for the church worldwide. It is also a stake in the ground to the faithfulness of God, as the title track declares: “My testament is you.” Stirred by friends and family, Zschech crafted a collection of 25 reimagined legacy songs and five brand-new tracks. From iconic songs such as “Cry of the Broken” and “Victor's Crown,” to fresh offerings like “Spirit of the Living God” and “Yes Again,” each song carries a powerful sound that is just as vibrant today. It also features many artists like Martin Smith, SVRICINA, Mitch Wong, and Michael W. Smith among others, as well as various choirs and the Australian Christian Orchestra, creating an expansive and eclectic project filled with the sound of praise, thanksgiving, and rich collaboration. This album embodies Zschech's story and her experience of God's unfailing love, not only in worship ministry but in each intricate details of her life too. It's a family project, described by the artist as “songs that have deep meaning to my family, that have helped shape me and kept my focus heavenward.” “Testament” weaves together songs that have been the soundtrack to her children's lives, her battle with cancer, and her adventures planting churches and starting non-profits alongside her husband. It also features multiple family members, including Zschech's daughter, Zoe Cameron, on “Shout to the Lord.” Commenting on this central song, which was penned before Zoe's birth, Zschech said: “I wrote it quickly while crying out to God about our future, saying that no matter what, we will follow him. I was young in age and young in God. ‘Shout to the Lord' changed things around us, but the things that really matter never changed and never will: God is faithful and attentive to our prayers.” Harnessing this central theme of faithfulness, “Testament” communicates its close relationship to obedience and thankfulness. It's the sound flowing out of a lifetime lived with the Lord, the very meaning of worship. Zschech is adamant that worship is not a genre but the whole of one's life poured out for the glory of God: “I'll always find it hard to wrap my head around the miracle of worship, music, and song. There's really no other vehicle available to us on earth that has the ability to bring to attention our mind, auditory senses, resting our hearts, moving the soul and spirit to a point when your whole self is pointed in the one direction. Such is the power of worship as the Holy Spirit leads our heart heavenward, Jesus-ward, through the magnificent sound of sacred song.” “Testament” is not just about memories, but it's a statement that worship leads to encountering Christ afresh in every moment. Zschech's prayer is that this collection of songs would play a part in people's story as they too are reminded of God's incredible faithfulness.

Message from Brad Wheeler on February 23, 2025
We live in a world bombarded by unrealistic portrayals of relationships, often fueled by rom-coms, influencers, and reality TV. These portrayals can create unhealthy expectations, leading to disappointment and relationship struggles. Today, we're diving into these unrealistic expectations and how to shift to a healthier, God-centered perspective.The "Fixer-Upper" Fallacy: The idea that a woman will magically solve all your problems is a dangerous myth. She's a person with her own needs, dreams, and struggles, not a solution to your life's issues.Happiness is an Inside Job: While a relationship can bring joy, a woman is not responsible for your happiness or entertainment. True happiness stems from within and is rooted in our relationship with God. The honeymoon phase is temporary; real life requires more.The Myth of "Easy Street": A relationship, even a great one, doesn't automatically make life easy. It requires effort, communication, and a willingness to work through challenges together.The Call to Die to Self: Marriage, as a sacred covenant before God, involves dying to our selfish desires and putting our spouse's needs before our own. It's a call to sacrifice, not a free pass to a life of ease.Beyond Romantic Love: A woman cannot fulfill all your relational needs. Men need strong friendships, mentors, and above all, a deep connection with God. We address the common scenario of guys who abandon their friends once they enter a relationship.The God Factor: A healthy relationship starts with a healthy individual. When our identity and fulfillment are rooted in God, we can approach relationships with realistic expectations and give our wives the love and support they deserve.No One is Perfect: Remember, no one, including the "best" woman, is perfect. She is a partner, not a savior. Expecting perfection sets the relationship up for failure.The Power of Healthy Expectations: Entering a relationship with realistic and God-centered expectations is crucial for its success. It allows for grace, understanding, and genuine connection.Key Takeaway: When you have God as your foundation, you can approach relationships with healthy expectations, leading to stronger, more fulfilling partnerships.Share this episode with someone who could benefit from it!For more resources to help you succeed in the areas that truly matter, visit thrivingman.com.
Why does it always feel like there's more to do? No matter how hard you work, how much you accomplish, or how successful you become, there's always another task, another goal, another expectation. It's like running on a treadmill that never stops. And if you're not careful, you'll spend your life chasing significance through your work—only to find that it never truly satisfies. But what if work was never meant to carry that weight? What if the meaning you're looking for isn't something you achieve, but something you receive? Welcome to The Daily. We go through the bible verse-by-verse, chapter-by-chapter, every single day. Our text today is Ecclesiastes 3:14-15. I perceived that whatever God does endures forever; nothing can be added to it, nor anything taken from it. God has done it, so that people fear before him. That which is, already has been; that which is to be, already has been; and God seeks what has been driven away. — Ecclesiastes 3:14-15 Solomon's wisdom explains something that most fail to understand, which is why so many are exhausted by work. God's eternal work overpowers all human attempts. Not only that—it exposes our aspirations to become eternally significant through our work. In our attempt, the only correct response is to be subject to the One who works all things. Otherwise, we will find ourselves exhausted, frustrated, and disappointed because, deep in our souls, we have been trying to play God or make ourselves into a god through our work. Solomon isn't saying work is meaningless—he's warning against making it the source of our meaning. God gives purpose to your work, not the other way around. When we expect our careers, accomplishments, or legacy to define us, we're placing a burden on work that it was never meant to carry. That's why so many men feel restless, always striving but never satisfied. But when we flip the script and let God define our purpose, work becomes what it was meant to be—a way to glorify Him, serve others, and steward what He's given us. We no longer labor for identity, security, or significance, because those things are already secure in Christ. Instead, we work with excellence and faithfulness, knowing that what truly lasts is what God is doing through us. So today, take a deep breath. Work hard, but don't worship work. Let go of the pressure to prove yourself and trust in the eternal work of God. Because at the end of the day, only what He does will last forever. #PurposeOverProductivity, #EternalWork, #FaithAndWork ASK THIS: How have you tried to find meaning in your work instead of in God? What pressures are you carrying that God never asked you to bear? How can you shift your perspective to see work as a way to glorify God? What would change if you truly believed your identity is secure in Christ? DO THIS: Pause today and ask yourself: Am I working to glorify God, or am I seeking identity in my work? Adjust accordingly. PRAY THIS: Lord, help me release the burden of finding my worth in work. Teach me to trust in Your eternal purpose and rest in Your plan. Amen. PLAY THIS: Purpose.
