In Spirit & Truth

Do you ever take credit for something that God has done? No? Look at everything around you, your job, family, home, where you live... is that because of you? Or because of God? Pastor JD will challenge us to shift our perspective today, and challenge us to open our eyes to everything that God has done, is doing, and will do!

Paul, in Romans, said to “not think more highly of ourselves than we ought”, and Pastor JD shows us today, that the pride of Babylon came before its fall. It's important to keep our pride in check. When we believe that we are well established, and in control of our destinies, a fall will come to help us see the truth clearly.

It can be easy to shake your head at the repetitive disobedience of the nation of Israel throughout the Bible. You might think “How can they be so blind?!” Well, Pastor JD will help us see today, that we are in no better position. How often do you lose sight of God, instead focusing on things the world has to offer?

Are you ready to be an outcast for Jesus? In today’s Prophecy Update, Pastor JD talks about how we as Christians are becoming outcasts in society because we are followers of Jesus. But we must keep the Lord as our foundation. No matter our situation, as long as we put our trust in Him, He will always provide.

Are you easily deceived? Every single person is tempted, even Jesus was tempted. How do we recognize what comes from the Lord, and what is from Satan? In today’s prophecy update, Pastor JD talks about the signs that we should look out for when trying to decide whether something is from the Lord.

Christ is coming sooner than you think, and the signs are all around us. Do you recognize the signs of Jesus’ return? In today’s prophecy update, Pastor JD talks about what to look out for once Jesus returns. The world will be a dark place before Jesus returns, but the signs are all laid out in Revelation.

As Christians, when God doesn’t answer our prayers, it’s easy to feel the need to take matters into our own hands. Today, Pastor JD wants you to know that God’s timing will always be perfect and you need to be patient. He always hears your prayers and delivers when the time is right. Let Him do miraculous things in your life.

Have you ever been in a situation so difficult that all hope was lost? Have you ever been in a rut only to find frustration when you can’t overcome it? Today, Pastor JD explains that God will always come through for you. When you’re at your lowest, He will always show up. Give your life to God and feel security like never before.

When life is going well, it’s easy to pat ourselves on the back and put ourselves above others. Today, Pastor JD wants you to know that God’s love is for everyone and you need to humbly accept it. Don’t put others down when life is going well, accept His love for you, and show it to everyone around you.

When life feels out of control and it seems like everything is dark and gloomy, don't lose hope! God is there and He loves you! He loves you so much that He sent His only Son to die for YOU so that YOU can have hope and a future! Today, in his update, Pastor JD reminds us of the gospel in spite of all the darkness around us!

Do you feel Christ coming for you? Do you feel that He is oh so near to His return? He is! The signs are all around us! Today, in his update, Pastor JD points us to how close the end could be, that the rapture of the church is at hand! Are you ready? Are you anticipating Jesus coming for you? It's so close!

Do you long for the return of Christ? Do you live as though He were coming today, or do you live like you've got some time? The reality is that it could be ANYDAY now! Today, in his update, Pastor JD reminds you to keep a watchful eye, to stay alert and ready! Jesus is coming soon and He's coming for you!

As Christians, we know we are saved through Jesus, but do we truly let faith guide our lives? Today, Pastor JD explains that you can’t stop at grace and need to emphasize the faith in your life. Without faith, His grace won’t save you on its own. Believe in the unseen and let God do miraculous things by accepting his grace through faith.

Have you ever truly considered how wonderfully made you are? Today, Pastor JD wants you to know that you are made in God’s perfect image. Give your life to Him and be renewed in your spirit. Your body will fail you, but God never will. Let His creation be a sign of how beautiful and perfect He is to you in your life.

When difficult times come, many of us are quick to blame God. We act rashly and let our emotions get the best of us. Today, Pastor JD explains that although God is the author of your worst times, you can’t forget that He’s behind your best times. God is working everything for your good and you need to trust His timing.

With all the chaos going on in the world, do you find yourself getting ready or simply getting angry? While The Bible does have that famous verse, be angry and do not sin, it's important we stay focused. As Pastor JD will discuss in his Prophecy Update today, now is more important than ever to be ready for Jesus.

Many of us are all too familiar with the warning signs of the end times written in Paul's second letter to Timothy. However, many of us make the mistake of equating this to the world, rather than The Church. In today's Prophecy Update, Pastor JD points out that these warnings were speaking to The Church, not the world.

As believers and followers of Christ, it's imperative that we ask ourselves an important question. Is the world influencing us, or are we influencing the world? In today's Prophecy Update, Pastor JD reflects on the ever-increasing influence of the world on The Church, which has unfortunately made many believers lukewarm.

Feelings are different than facts. Sometimes it makes sense to make a decision based on gut feeling. But as Pastor JD shares in today's study, your relationship with the Father can't be based upon your feelings. Focus on the promises, fulfilled prophecy, and truth found in the Bible to ground your faith.

What's the longest you've gone without your phone? And that one time you lost your phone doesn't count. If you're like most smartphone users, you are hooked. But as Pastor JD points out in today's lesson, even your phone can come between you and God. If something has you, it's time to turn its power over to the Lord.

The guilt you feel for not being a good Christian isn't something that is taught in the Bible. Sure it's good to pray and read your Bible, but not doing so doesn't upset God. Pastor JD shares in today's message that your actions (or inaction) don't disappoint God. The only one winning is Satan, so free yourself of this guilt.

If you're a well-versed Bible student, particularly in the Book of Revelation, you're probably well aware of the warning signs of today. The push for globalism and a great reset should be enough on its own. In today's prophecy update, Pastor JD discusses several prophecies of Revelation that are coming to fruition.

Many of us are probably well aware of the state of our society, and societies abroad. It looks like an absolute collapse if we're to be honest. So what's causing it? In today's prophecy update, Pastor JD reflects on the rise of deception and division that Scripture warns is a deliberate sign of the end times.

While many of us would be quick to agree that it'd be more beneficial to be ready, rather than angry, we all too often let the state of the world anger us. In today's prophecy update, Pastor JD reflects on the ever-increasing decay of our world, while reminding us that we're called to always be ready.

When we hear the word “blessing,” we tend to focus on God blessing us rather than the other way around. But today, Pastor JD explains that we are also capable of blessing – and even ministering to – God. And just how do we do this? By being obedient to Him; obedience is more important to God than sacrifice.

While God wants us to remember His goodness towards us, the Enemy seeks to torment us by drawing our memory back to our failures. Today, Pastor JD challenges us to focus on God’s deeds rather than our own, because all too often we forget about God’s gracious miracles and instead ruminate on our own sin.
