Psalm 27:3
If an army surrounds me, I will not be afraid. If war breaks out, I will trust the Lord.

There has never been a time in the history of this globe when there was not a rain cloud somewhere on the earth. There may be blue skies for us occasionally, but the rain always comes. So, instead of looking for ways to escape problems, look for methods to face them head on.

John 14:27
“I leave you peace; My peace I give you…So don’t let your hearts be troubled or afraid.”

We serve the God who designed the universe and set our world in motion. But those hands that hung the stars in the heavens also wiped away the tears of the widow and the leper. And they will wipe away your tears as well.

Jeremiah 29:11
“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, ” says the Lord, “thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future.”

Father,
We trust the plans You have for us. We know You are good in everything you do. Even when we’re going through rough waters, we know it’s part of Your great plan. Even when we don’t always see or feel You, we trust You are right beside us. Thank you for the promise that You are working ALL things together for the good of those who love You. Nothing is wasted in Your Kingdom. You are the God who holds our future and we place our full hope in You alone. In Jesus’ mighty name we pray, Amen.

Romans 15:13
Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope, in the power of the Holy Spirit.

Father, we acknowledge You as our Source of hope. Thank you for the promise that we can be completely filled with joy and peace as a result of trusting in You. Thank you Holy Spirit for giving us an overflow of confident hope. We place no confidence in the emptiness of our flesh or the false peace of the world. You are our Source and everything else is simply a resource. We run into the halls of heaven to draw close to You, Abba. It’s in Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.

We will be having church as usual this evening, April 22, 2026. See y’all soon!!!

We are monitoring the rainfall. Please stay tuned for a weather announcement tomorrow regarding Wednesday evening meal and classes.

Scripture: Hebrews 6:19
“This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and steadfast and entering into that which is within the veil.”

Jesus, thank you for being the anchor for our souls. No matter how strong the storms in our lives become, we trust You as the anchor that holds. You are trustworthy, Lord, and we place our hope in You alone. Your sacrifice provided direct access to Your Father. Our only response is to fall to our knees and worship. It’s in Your wonderful name we pray, Amen.

Zephaniah 2:3 AMP
Seek the Lord [inquire for Him, inquire of Him, and require Him as the foremost necessity of your life].

If God were water, we would thirst for Him each day. If He were food, we would hunger for Him. If He were air, we would breathe Him into our lungs twelve to twenty times a minute. Yet God, our Creator, is all these things and more. If we need these basic necessities for our daily physical existence, why then do we so easily allow our spirits to starve by not opening our Bibles? When Jesus fasted and prayed in the desert for forty days, the devil tempted Him by urging Jesus to turn stones into bread. And even though Jesus was famished, He answered, “Man shall not live on bread alone.” (Luke 4:4 NIV) There is more to this life than basic survival. Our bodies hunger for one thing and our spirits for another. Thankfully, God provides a daily portion for us through Scripture, which is manna for the soul.

We all have problems in this life, worries, concerns, sad situations, and important decisions to make. Most importantly, we all have questions we need the answers to. To find “The Answer,” open your Bible and read. Feed your spirit with good soul food!

Genesis 39:3 NKJV
And his master saw that the Lord was with him and that the Lord made all he did to prosper in his hand.

Have you ever found yourself in a position completely opposite of where you hoped to be? Well, you’re not alone. Joseph, a favored child, was sold into slavery by his jealous brothers and faced the prospect of a dismal life. Still, he made the most of his situation and excelled in his lowly state. Then things got even worse. Joseph was accused of a crime he didn’t commit and was thrown into prison. Most people would be downright depressed at this point, mad at the world and mad at God. But he again found favor, this time with the prison warden, who entrusted him with important responsibilities. Afterwards, through another series of miraculous circumstances, God raised Joseph up to become Pharaoh’s “right-hand man,” and God ultimately used this former slave and prisoner to preserve the people of Israel during a great famine.

You might find yourself in a difficult training ground as well, but be assured that the same God who prepared Joseph for great things is preparing you. A person who excels in his or her work will stand before kings (Proverbs 22:29).
