- Jude 1:24-25

30th September

Now to him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you blameless before the presence of his glory with great joy, to the only God, our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion, and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen.

- Jeremiah 29:13

29th September

You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart.

- Isaiah 55:8-9

28th September

For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord.

For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.

- James 1:5-8

27th September

If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.

But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind.

For that person must not suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.

- 2 Timothy 2:22-26

26th September

So flee youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who call on the Lord from a pure heart.

Have nothing to do with foolish, ignorant controversies; you know that they breed quarrels.

And the Lord's servant must not be quarrelsome but kind to everyone, able to teach, patiently enduring evil, correcting his opponents with gentleness.

God may perhaps grant them repentance leading to a knowledge of the truth, and they may come to their senses and escape from the snare of the devil, after being captured by him to do his will.

- 2 Corinthians 4:13-18

25th September

But we continue to preach because we have the same kind of faith the psalmist had when he said,

“I believed in God, so I spoke.”

We know that God, who raised the Lord Jesus, will also raise us with Jesus and present us to himself together with you.
All of this is for your benefit.

And as God’s grace reaches more and more people, there will be great thanksgiving, and God will receive more and more glory.

That is why we never give up.
Though our bodies are dying, our spirits are being renewed every day.
For our present troubles are small and won’t last very long.

Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever!
So we don’t look at the troubles we can see now; rather, we fix our gaze on things that cannot be seen.
For the things we see now will soon be gone, but the things we cannot see will last forever.

- Galatians 3:16-20

24th September

Now the promises were made to Abraham and to his offspring.
It does not say, "And to offsprings," referring to many, but referring to one, "And to your offspring," who is Christ.

This is what I mean: the law, which came 430 years afterward, does not annul a covenant previously ratified by God, so as to make the promise void.
For if the inheritance comes by the law, it no longer comes by promise; but God gave it to Abraham by a promise.

Why then the law? It was added because of transgressions, until the offspring should come to whom the promise had been made, and it was put in place through angels by an intermediary.
Now an intermediary implies more than one, but God is one.

Brian's Story

A child of God

My testimony is this: When I was about 16 years old I was working at a food store and I was gathering shopping carts in the parking lot and my former bus driver came and spoke to me and he said that he wanted to perform a sexual act on me.
I was on a break then and I went to him and said "sure why not". I hadn't had any relations before that other than making out with girls.

- John 1:1-5

23rd September

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
He was in the beginning with God.
All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.
In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.
And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.

Amia's Story

Due to situations beyond my control I ended up homeless a few years ago. 
I was broke and with no family or friends willing to help. 

I was terrified being all alone with no where to go. I mean what do you do when you have no one and no money? 

- John 10:14-18

22nd September

Jesus said:

"I am the good shepherd.
I know my own and my own know me, just as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep.

And I have other sheep that are not of this fold. I must bring them also, and they will listen to my voice.
So there will be one flock, one shepherd.

For this reason the Father loves me, because I lay down my life that I may take it up again.
No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord.
I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it up again.
This charge I have received from my Father."

- 1 Peter 1:6-9

21st September

So be truly glad.
There is wonderful joy ahead, even though you have to endure many trials for a little while.
These trials will show that your faith is genuine.
It is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold—though your faith is far more precious than mere gold.

So when your faith remains strong through many trials, it will bring you much praise and glory and honor on the day when Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world.

You love him even though you have never seen him.
Though you do not see him now, you trust him; and you rejoice with a glorious, inexpressible joy.
The reward for trusting him will be the salvation of your souls.

- John 3:20-21

20th September

All who do evil hate the light and refuse to go near it for fear their sins will be exposed.

But those who do what is right come to the light so others can see that they are doing what God wants.

- Isaiah 26:3-4

19th September

You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you!
Trust in the Lord always, for the Lord God is the eternal Rock.

Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, who gave himself for our sins to deliver us from the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.

Let your unfailing love surround us, Lord, for our hope is in you alone.

- John 6:32-35

12th September

Jesus said, “I tell you the truth, Moses didn’t give you bread from heaven. My Father did.

And now he offers you the true bread from heaven.

The true bread of God is the one who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.”

“Sir,” the crowd said, “give us that bread every day.”

Jesus replied, “I am the bread of life.

Whoever comes to me will never be hungry again.

Whoever believes in me will never be thirsty."

INFIDELITY: This Is My Story!

5 For your Maker is your husband—
the LORD Almighty is his name—
the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer; he is called the God of all the earth.
6 The LORD will call you back as if you were a wife deserted and distressed in spirit—
a wife who married young, only to be rejected,” says your God.
7 “For a brief moment I abandoned you, but with deep compassion I will bring you back.

I will have compassion on you,” says the LORD your Redeemer.

Drew's Story

My Name is Drew Barker. I am 19 years old and have been a Christian a little over two years.

God has delivered me from so much including: Homosexuality, Witchcraft, Suicidal thoughts and more.

My junior year of High School, I started coming out to people as being gay and surprisingly a lot of people were okay with it. A fact that is astounding here in the Bible Belt (The Bible Belt consists of much of the Southern United States extending west into Texas and Oklahoma.).

- 1 John 4:10-12

7th September

This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.
Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.
No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.

- Proverbs 21:21

6th September

Whoever pursues righteousness and unfailing love will find life, righteousness, and honour.

- 2 Timothy 1:8-10

5th September

For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.

Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me His prisoner, but share with me in the sufferings for the gospel according to the power of God, who has saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace which was given to us in Christ Jesus before time began, but has now been revealed by the appearing of our Savior Jesus Christ, who has abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel.

- Romans 12:17-18

Do all that you can to live in peace with everyone.

- 1 Corinthians 13:4-7

3rd September

Love is patient and kind.
Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude.
It does not demand its own way.
It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged.
It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out.
Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.

- 1 John 4:7-8

2nd September

Dear friends, let us continue to love one another, for love comes from God. Anyone who loves is a child of God and knows God.
But anyone who does not love does not know God, for God is love.

- Matthew 6:19-21

1st September

“Don’t store up treasures here on earth, where moths eat them and rust destroys them, and where thieves break in and steal.
Store your treasures in heaven, where moths and rust cannot destroy, and thieves do not break in and steal.
Wherever your treasure is, there the desires of your heart will also be."
