This is the sign for you ~ ✨

Do not be afraid to face the unknown and follow God's direction by making every step through faith, because where God leads, He provides. ⭐

So your goal is to figure out what God wants you to become and where He wants you to go, and do not be afraid to face the challenge for this year remember 1 Corinthians 10:13 KJV. "There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it."

Challenges are the reasons why we become stronger and wiser so don't be afraid to face it for God will provide everything we need to learn from it and overcome it. another verse says "But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus." Phillippians 4:19 KJV

May the Lord Find us Faithful

According to Google, praise is the act of expressing approval or admiration; commendation; laudation. The offering of grateful homage in words or song, as an act of worship, is a hymn of praise to God. We know that Job is very familiar in the Bible, and I believe that some of you think Job is everyone's favorite Bible character. If you read the 1st chapter of the Book of Job, you can see that Job is a rich man; he has many servants, has numerous wealth, and has a family. But when the great trial comes, all he has in his life is gone, especially his family. But there's only one thing that he has, and that is his faith in God.

We, as Christians, do praise Him in our church services because we worship God, singing gospel songs and listening to the preaching of God's word. But the question here is, how often do we praise God in our lives? Do we praise Him in good and bad times? Or have we forgotten to praise Him in our lives? We are guilty sometimes; instead of praising God, we used to praise our favorite famous celebrities because of their fame, like NBA basketball players, international or local singers, Korean pop singers, etc.

In our main text, as you read in Job 1:20-22 there are three things on how Job praises God despite his trials:

1. HIS CHARACTER.
Job was not just a rich man; he is also a righteous man. He always manages to obey God in his life. With this character, we may see first his righteousness in verse 1: he rose up early and burnt his offering to God, and with that, we may see his reverence to the Lord; he deeply respects God in his life as he served God with his family. But when the great trial comes, he loses everything he has; he never turns his back to God because he lost everything, but he learns to be humble because he only depends on God alone, not himself.

2. HIS CATASTROPHE.
In verses 13-19 of Job chapter 1, God allowed Satan to bring destruction into Job's household in order to prove that Job's faithfulness is not just because of God's blessings. He may have lost everything especially his family, but he never lost God in his life. Brethren, let me tell you that no one can be exempted to face trials or challenges. Because we are all humans, but as we have Christ in our hearts, we must experience trials to prove that our faithfulness is only by Him or by ourselves. Many people are afraid of losing money, friends, houses, jobs, expensive cars or cellphones, but they are not afraid of losing God in their lives. My friend, this world is not our home, we are just passing through, our true home is in heaven where He prepares a place for you (John 14:2).

3. HIS COMPOSURE.
Despite everything that has happened, Job kept his composure. He kept his faith in God, having no malice in his heart, only love for God. His trust is only to God, he may feel down but he never put his anger in his heart because he lost his family, his servants, his home, his flocks. He only depends on his trust in God. And in verse 21, he truly said "blessed be the name of the Lord".

We may have different trials in our lives; either good or bad, we still praise God. because there's always a reason to praise God. Remember in Romans 8:28: "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose."

"All things work for our good
Though sometimes we don't see
How they could
Struggles that break our hearts in two
Sometimes blind us to the truth.

Our Father knows what's best for us
His ways are not our own
So when your pathway grows dim
And you just don't see Him,
Remember you're never alone.

God is too wise to be mistaken
God is too good to be unkind
So when you don't understand
When don't see His plan
When you can't trace His hand
Trust His Heart"

DEVOTION BREAK | PRAISING GOD ALL THE TIME
Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshipped, [21] And said, Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: the LORD gave, and the LORD hath taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD. [22] In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly.
Job 1:20-22 KJV

May the Lord find us faithful

Claiming that we are a follower of Christ requires an evidence.
anyone can say:

"Nagsisimba naman ako"
"Nagmiministry naman ako"
"Nagooffering naman ako"

But the real evidence is our lives, not perfect, but sincere life.
remember this:
- We cannot serve the Lord and keep sinning in secret,
- We cannot serve the Lord while treating other people like trash,
- We cannot give tithes and offerings and judge the homeless people on the streets.

Whatever ministry we have placed in, it is by grace and a privilege for us to have it, so let us serve with all honesty in our hearts. Surrender in prayer all secret sins we hide unto the Lord, and do not bend the scriptures and doctrines to justify our faults just to make an excuse; let the word of God rebuke us and acknowledge our mistakes.

Because being saved by grace through faith doesn't mean you're always right, yes, we might be attending church services, taking care of our ministry, and giving our tithes, but without all honesty in our hearts, it is all just in vain.

This verse is a good reminder for us "2 Corinthians 4:1-2"
Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint not;
But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.

A pleasant reminder this 2025. ⭐

never insult anyone in any circumstances.
Do not let the typical crab mentality take over you because the root cause of it are wickedness, envy, and insecurity.

Psalms 37:32 KJV "The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him."

1. The wicked person will never prevail over a righteous one.
Always remember that there is no destruction in God's Protection. No words or any devices can pull a man of God down, we all have seen and read from the word of God that He protects the faithful one.

"No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord." - Isaiah 54:17 KJV

2. Do not revenge and let the wicked people be destroyed by their own wickedness.
To make a judgment and to take revenge is not the action of a righteous, just let the Lord handle the people who seek to destroy you.

"Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass. Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil. For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the Lord, they shall inherit the earth." - Psalms 37:7-9 KJV

3. Overcome evil with good, that is always the best thing we can do for the wicked people, in Tagalog we say: "Hindi mo mapagtatagumpayan and kasamaan kung gagantirin sa masamang paraan."

"Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell for evermore. For the Lord loveth judgment, and forsaketh not his saints; they are preserved for ever: but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off." - Psalms 37:27-28 KJV

The National Baptist Day celebration that happened yesterday showed the significant impact on many Baptist brethren all over the country, and I would like to use this opportunity to congratulate you all in the glory of God. I thank God for this great inheritance of faith that He has given to us since the 1900s. Today, in this devotion, I, by the grace of God, would like to be a blessing and encouragement for all in the light of God's Word.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗿𝗲

Our text verse shows the Apostle Paul's utmost desire for his people to be saved. We all know, by their biblical historical background, that Israel was a God-centered nation in a sense that they zealously followed every commandment with all diligence. The Philippines is not different; in fact, many Filipinos just as well celebrated their "Black Nazarene" feast yesterday. Just like the Israelites, Filipinos are very devoted to this kind of religious activity in line with the tradition passed out to them. As the ones who hold the truth, let's continue to desire and pray for the salvation of our own compatriots so that this nation may become a fruitful field where God's Word and truth are more recognized than the human traditions.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻

Brethren, as the people who are saved by the grace of God, the Lord gave us a duty to preach the gospel. As Baptists and Christians, it is our primary objective to let the people know Christ and receive Him as their Lord and Savior (Matt. 28:18-19; Mark 16:15) and to stand as His witnesses wherever we are (Acts 1:8). Brethren, this is the great commission that only we can do by the power of God in us.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗩𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻

God doesn't want us to live our lives without vision for the future, and as Christians, we shouldn't lose our vision for our country. In the light and guidance of God's Word, let's be instruments for nation-building by bringing the people to know Christ. This is the greatest vision and mission that God wants us to carry out, because His Word says, "Where there is no vision, the people perish:" (Prov. 29:18).

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗔𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻

Of course, our service to God and to the country shouldn't remain a vision; God wants us to put all things into action. It is great to know how God moves through His saints in a different way, but it is greater to know that those actions that we make as the servants of God became avenues for others to know Christ, 𝗯𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗚𝗼𝗱 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲𝘀 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗼𝘂𝗹𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘄𝗲 𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗱 𝗮𝘀 𝗕𝗮𝗽𝘁𝗶𝘀𝘁𝘀.

Finally, once again, I would like to glorify God for what He has done during the National Baptist Day celebrations yesterday. Our history, sound doctrine, and faith were all the greatest gifts that we received from Him. Brethren, let us move forward; let us have a 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗿𝗲 for the people to get saved; let's have a 𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 for the future, and let's put all things into 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. Keep sharing the gospel, and 𝗱𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘄𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗵 𝗶𝘀 𝗴𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗚𝗼𝗱.

As Christians, as humans, every one of us aims for some great and promising goals in this life. We want to be better on the things that we already possess and desire something more. In this devotion, by the grace of God, I will once again share with you another valuable truth from God's Word concerning the importance of keeping ourselves in God's presence as we go throughout our life-long journey here on earth.

𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝘅𝘁
For context, Exodus 33, where our text verses were taken, God showed His presence to Moses and to the Israelites, where God saw the murmuring and hardheaded spirit with the people as they went through their long journey towards the promised land (V. 1-4), that God showed His presence before them in the form of a cloudy pillar before their eyes (V. 7-9), where Moses stood and spake before Him (V. 10-15).

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝘄𝗲 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻?
Like the Israelites, sometimes, we tend to find our own way, without understanding everything. The Israelites during that time always murmured against God and against Moses, their God-given leader, to the point that God wanted to destroy them all, so He was tended to send an angel before them. But Moses recognized the importance of God's presence and even said that if His presence is not with him, they'd rather not get there. In our lives, Christians, let us have the kind of spirit like Moses, who desired the presence of God rather than the blessings before them.

Brethren, this year is like a long journey towards a way that God wants us to reach, the way of life where His will and commandment is the greatest objective of living. Finally, let us not forget that God set us free from Egypt (a type of the world) and is now guiding us towards the land of promise (Christ-likeness). Let us not set ourselves apart from His presence, because only in Him can we find comfort and strength.

This is our faith that Jesus Saves

When Jesus said, “I will build my church;
the gates of hell will not prevail”
He fulfilled His promise &
the prophecy had never failed

So when all of our God's claimed people
Went and did the Lord’s commission
They stood firm upon His word
and they told the world

This is our faith, that JESUS SAVES
and there’s no other name
He is our LORD, our only LORD
so we tell the world..

We are Christians by conversion,
Baptists by conviction
The faith that we have
is the faith that we love

We will/must contend for it.
We’ll fight and stand for it
And when the end comes
like that Apostle may we say…

“I have kept the faith!”

During those times, criticisms and
the persecutions were so great
But even death did no threat; Christians had withstood
the test of faith

Despite of that cruel end dark ages,
the light of truth shone with clear brightness
They held on to the Word of God
even with their blood

And nowadays, many groups appeared, they’re claiming to be God’s true church But we believe in our heart there’s no place for debate
or for research

Because the Word of God is sure,
His authority is assured
What we believe & what we do & what we are, are just what is true

Tips on how to live long on this earth. ~ ✨

According to the Bible in Exodus 20:12 KJV "Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee."

First, recognize that your parents are a blessing and gift from the Lord so appreciate the gift you have received. dahil alalahanin mo hinahangad ng marami yung bagay na meron kapa, kaya habang nandiya sila mahalin mo sila. 🤍

Then Love them and obey them, in Ephesians 6:1 KJV says "Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right." Kung mahal mo susunod ka at kung alam mong tama magpapasakop ka want to live long? then Obey your parents as maraming pagkakataon sa buhay napatunay ko na that "Mama Knows best" listen to them
- Sabi nila wag ka mabibisyon masama yan sa kalusungan hindi astig.
- Sabi nila wag mong ligawan masasaktan at madedepress ka lang.
- Sabi nila wag mong sagutin walang magadang kinabukasan sa ganyan.

Appreciating your parents means you honor them, but then yes, not all parents are the same and some of us may be mistreated by our parents so the best thing we can do is to respect them but not to follow their bad actions or behavior, take a look of this, there is still a benefit from it because you gain a strong personality. ✨

Remember "Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good." Romans 12:21 KJV so even though hindi sila naging mabuting magulang hindi it reason para hindi ka maging isang mabuting anak. 🤍

May the Lord Find us Faithful

Isang bagay na kahit kelan ay hindi ko ikakahiya because I praise God I have you mama.✨
mention your mom and appreciate her this 2025

Call me a mama's boy or mama's girl but it doesn't matter, dahil walang makakatumbas na pagmamahal na galing sa isang ina. I'm grown up but then still hindi nagsasawang asikasuhin ka, gabayan ka, at ipinalangin ka sa Panginoon. 🤍

Life is so bright because of the endless love of our mothers so this year 2025 let's prioritize, appreciate, and love our mothers more than in the past and previous years

"Honour thy father and mother; which is the first commandment with promise; That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth."Ephesians 6:2-3 KJV"

Nowadays, there are some Christians who are not doing and living a Christ-like attitude in their lives because they are still enjoying worldliness. The saddest thing here is some people used to mock God sometimes in expressions like they said, "Oh my God!" and they used to mock like they were angry at Him because of their great storms that they faced; even some Christians did that, and sometimes they used to mock God on social media like they used the word "God" in vain.

I got curious to myself why people mocked God instead of other gods. That is one of my questions that I want to answer. But when we read in our main two verses, this is a great assurance to those who know Him by faith. Remember in the Book of Matthew where the devil (Satan) tempts Jesus to prove that he is a Son of God? But in the end, the devil loses, but he never holds back because he can use people to destroy some Christians, and he used people to mock Him. The answer to why people mocked God instead of other gods is that the devil knows that Jesus Christ is a true Son of God.

If you know the movie entitled "Titanic," I believe that everyone is popular in this movie. I watched a history about a titanic ship, and there was a woman who had an interview with a captain ship named Edward John Smith. The woman asked her a question, "How is the Titanic ship so strong?" The captain answered, "Not even God Himself can't sink the ship." Through that statement, he mocked God. On April 14, 1912, at 11:40 pm, the Titanic struck an iceberg, and at 2:20 am on April 15, 1912, the Titanic sank, and 1,500 passengers died out of 2,200.

Sometimes we trust a faulty sense of intuition and an inappropriate guide to get us to heaven too. But Jesus assures us that there is only one way—through faith in Him. It may interest you to know that most of the religions of this world were established to find God, but Jesus remains the only way to God, and there is no other.

Man was created in the image of God. The very life that runs in our veins is the life of God, and our bodies are but dust. At death, the body returns to dust, while the soul and spirit go back home to the owner. In looking for our way home, we must first know where home is.

We belong to God, and He is our home. Unless we get to know and acknowledge Him, there is no home for us. Jesus is not one of the ways to God. He is the only way. Affirm your faith in His Word and trust His death on the cross as the only acceptable payment for sin.

There are 10,000 religions in this world. But there is an empty tomb that is found and risen from the dead after 3 days, whom He bore our sins in His own body on the tree, and by His stripes we are healed; that person is none other than the Lord Jesus Christ.

DEVOTION BREAK | THE GREAT I AM STILL IS
John 14:6 KJV
[6] Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
1 Timothy 2:5 KJV
For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus.

Not this year satan.

The Devil will never stop on his full-time job to tempt and distract you, so let us all keep our presence with the Lord and proclaim His word "Galatians 5:16-26 KJV"

"This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would. But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law. Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another."

In Jesus' name, I rebuke any temptation, distraction, and evil doings of enemies. I pray that this year may be filled with Christ's presence and leading to His will. ⭐

and together let us say "Get thee behind me, Satan"
- Matthew 16:23 KJV

God has given us another year of opportunity to give our best and achieve our success, so let us set a goal to give God the double honor He deserves.💯

Another year means another blessing
Another year means another challenges
Another year means another opportunity to learn

"But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus." (Philippians 4:19 KJV) Everything we have is a supplication and provision from God, we become strong and wise because God has given us these three things, so then it is our chance this year to give back a double honor for all He has done for us.
Don't just grind for success, grind to give God the Glory and Honor He deserves.

Before I go through this devotion, let me greet you all a Happy and Blessed New Year; may our hearts be full of thanksgiving and praises to God as we walk through this new chapter of our lives.

The year 2024 surprised us with so many blessings and challenges. Of course, it is in accordance with God's will and purpose, even though we don't understand it, but God works on the things around us to teach us precious lessons as we live in this life.

Going back to our text verses, God's Word through Apostle Paul reminds us of the things that are not new to us, but as this year ends, let's take a look at these things once again and bring them forth as we face the year 2025.

𝐈. 𝗔 𝗟𝗶𝗳𝗲 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝙂𝙤𝙚𝙨 𝙁𝙤𝙧𝙬𝙖𝙧𝙙 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗶𝘀𝘁

Our text verses contain such powerful statements that bring forth important lessons including forgetting the unnecessary things of the past, reaching the valuable things of the future, and pressing onward to God's calling. This is the kind of life that we ought to have in the sight of God, if we have conflicts in the past, it's time to forgive, if we have sin in the past, it's time to truly confess it, and if we are chained by our resentments in the past, let's get free from it. Of course, we can only do these things by the grace of God.

𝗜𝗜. 𝗔 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝙆𝙚𝙚𝙥𝙨 𝗔𝗯𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗟𝗼𝗿𝗱

As servants of God, the year 2025 is another God-given opportunity for us to continue our service to Him, not in a routine way but in an abounding spirit. God doesn't look after our abilities and talents; He looks after our hearts in serving Him. This 2025, let us take another step of faith and serve the Lord faithfully, because He is worthy of it and our labor is not in vain in Him.

"Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord." 1 Corinthians 15:58 (KJV)

𝗜𝗜𝗜. 𝗔 𝗦𝗽𝗶𝗿𝗶𝘁 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗕𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿

The year 2024 undeniably brought us stressful circumstances that drove our emotions to be troubled and worried, even causing us to change our attitude towards the things and the people around us. However, this is not what God wants us to behave, as Christians, the Word of God is full of helpful advice for us to be right in spirit or in attitude which includes our use of words (Eph. 4:29), our treatment to other people (Matt. 7:12; Lk. 6:31), and our desire to draw ourselves before God (Jas. 4:7-8). Brethren, God wants us to change for the better, so that we can serve Him with the right spirit that makes a great testimony in the near future.

Finally, going forward to the will of God is more than a New Year's resolution; it is a life that should last not just for a year, but for our entire life here on earth. Let us go forward, serve the Lord bountifully, and have a better spirit for the year 2025. Let us continue in walking with Him, not just for the coming year, but until the day of His great coming.

Be ready always to give an answer ✨

02/01/2025

Sometimes we used to remember or rewind our memories back then of every new year celebration when the new incoming year was approaching. Like happy moments from your family and friends, even in our achievements or successful events that you finally accomplished in your job, like you got promoted, even in school you graduated in elementary level, high school, and college level with flying colors. But above all, with those achievements, success, and victory are not always by our strengths and pride, but it's always by our God's amazing grace. Without Him, we cannot experience victory in our lives.

I believe that there are always new achievements that need to be unlocked. But it doesn't matter if you don't want to experience the challenges or tests. It is also a sign of process, so if you don't want to experience challenges, then you will not obtain victory. But because of His Love, His Faith is greater than a mustard seed if you put your trust in Him. This year, 2025, we just do not always recall our memories from our family and friends, especially our events in every aspect of our lives. But we must recall our minds and hearts to the Lord always, because He gave us a new day and in our lives.

There are 3 things that we must recall in our mind:

I. THE MERCY OF OUR GOD IS UNENDING.

His mercy is ultimately expressed through the gift of salvation, according to Ephesians 2:4-5 and Romans 9:15-16. The gift of salvation is free for all of us as sinners and extends to forgiving sins and transgressions, just like David asks God for forgiveness and mercy. If the phone battery is consumed when you use it every hour, His Mercy cannot be consumed because He still loves us. As the song says:
"Great is thy faithfulness, O God, my Father;
There is no shadow of turning with thee.
Thou changest not, thy compassions, they fail not;
As thou hast been, thou forever wilt be."

II. THE COMPASSION OF GOD IS UNCONDITIONAL.

In 1 John 4:8, the Bible tells about His Love toward us. God sent His Only Begotten Son, Jesus Christ; He came to love and forgive. He died on the cross and shed His precious blood to save us from eternal death, and whosoever believeth in Him will not perish; but have everlasting life. And the Bible is clear that salvation is by grace through faith, not by good works, according to Ephesians 2:8–9 and Titus 3:5.

III. THE FAITHFULNESS OF GOD IS UNFATHOMABLE.

Faith has no limits; we cannot see with our naked eye, but we can feel Him by faith, as Hebrews 11:1 says. The Psalmist mentioned that his faith in God endures forever, as he said in Psalms 23:6, "Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever." If you put your faith in Him, you will know His will to you, you will know His plan for you, and the hope was found in Him.

We had great moments in 2024. Now, we are faced with a new year: 2025. Let's recall to our minds that His Mercy is unending, His Compassion is unconditional, and His Faith is unfathomable. Great is Thy Faithfulness, Lord unto me!

THE GRACE OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST BE WITH YOU ALL. AMEN.
(Romans 16:24)

DEVOTION BREAK | THIS I RECALL TO MY MIND
Lamentations 3:21-23 KJV
This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope.
22 It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.
23 They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.
