    Sep 7 2025
    Your Nightly Prayer 🙏🏾 Psalm 72:2

    Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved. -Psalms 55:22

    DEVOTION
    Based on Psalm 55
    Cast' implies forceful action—hurling burdens away from yourself onto God. This isn't gentle laying down but desperate throwing. David knew that burdens retained are burdens that crush. The promise is twofold: He sustains the person and secures their position. 'Never suffer to be moved' means your circumstances may shake, but your foundation won't shift. God catches what we cast and holds whom He catches.
    A.C.T.S. REFLECTION
    ADORATION: Burden-bearer God, You invite the crushing weight I carry. You sustain when I cannot stand. I worship You, my unmovable foundation.


    CONFESSION: I confess holding onto burdens You've asked me to cast.


    THANKSGIVING: Thank You for Your strength that sustains and secures.


    SUPPLICATION: Help me throw every burden on You today, trusting Your sustaining power.

    PRAYER
    He will judge your people with righteousness, and your poor with justice.
    PSALM 72:2
    Dear Lord, as I lay in my bed, I feel the weight of the day lift from my weary bones. My mind and body yearn for peace and rest. As I close my eyes, I offer up a prayer to the heavens above. I release all my worries and anxieties and lay them at Your feet. I give thanks for the blessings You have bestowed upon me today. As I enter the realm of sleep, let Your loving hands guide me into the land of dreams. May Your grace shine upon me like the stars in the sky, bringing peace and serenity to my heart. Blessed be Your glorious name forever. May the whole earth be filled with Your glory! Watch over my loved ones near and far, and let them feel Your love and care wherever they are. With a peaceful spirit and a heart full of love, I surrender myself to Your infinite wisdom. Grant me the restful slumber I need to awaken with renewed strength and energy to face the challenges of tomorrow. In Jesus’ holy and precious name, I pray. Amen. 🙏🏾

  • Episode 1457 - Jarvis Kingston For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him shall not per
    Sep 6 2025
    Your Daily Prayer 🙏🏾 John 2:15

    Eternal life is a gift, freely given to those who believe.

    Today’s daily devotional is about Jesus cleansing the temple and His conversation with Nicodemus. Jesus drove out corrupt money-changers, restoring the temple’s sanctity. Later, He revealed to Nicodemus the profound truths of being born again and receiving eternal life, highlighting God’s love and salvation.
    STORY
    Bible in a Year: Flipping Tables and Eternal Life
    Scripture
    For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

    John 3:16
    Have you ever felt a righteous anger against injustice?

    Jesus experienced this when He entered the temple during Passover and saw the sacred space turned into a marketplace. The temple, meant to be a place of worship and prayer, was corrupted by money-changers exploiting the people. Jesus' reaction was swift and decisive—He fashioned a whip and drove them out, restoring the temple’s sanctity and purpose.

    What does Jesus' cleansing of the temple teach us about standing up against wrongdoing?

    Jesus’ actions demonstrate the importance of preserving the sanctity of worship and standing up against corruption and exploitation. His righteous anger was rooted in a desire to honor God and protect the integrity of the temple.

    How do we respond to the injustices we encounter in our lives?

    Jesus' example encourages us to address wrongdoing with courage and conviction. Later that evening, Nicodemus, a Pharisee, sought out Jesus to understand more about His mission. Jesus’ conversation with Nicodemus reveals the core of His message: being born again through faith and receiving eternal life.

    How does Jesus' teaching about being born again resonate with you?

    Jesus explained to Nicodemus that spiritual rebirth is essential for entering the Kingdom of God. This rebirth is not of the flesh, but of the Spirit, signifying a transformative relationship with God through faith. He emphasized that God’s love is so profound that He gave His only Son so that everyone who believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.

    What steps can you take to deepen your faith and embrace the gift of eternal life?

    Reflect on your own spiritual journey and consider areas where you can grow in your relationship with God. Seek to understand and apply Jesus' teachings in your daily life, embracing the transformative power of being born again through the Holy Spirit.

    REFLECTION
    Reflect on the injustices around you and consider how you can stand up for what is right, following Jesus’ example. Are there areas in your life where you need to restore sanctity and purpose?

    This week, commit to addressing these areas with courage and conviction. Additionally, ponder the concept of being born again and what it means for your spiritual life.

    Embrace God’s love and the gift of salvation, seeking a deeper relationship with Him through prayer, study, and reflection.

    FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT ACTION: SELF-CONTROL
    If you’re full, turn down second helpings at your next meal.

    We all have a God-given gift that sets us apart and allows us to lead with purpose.

    PRAYER
    And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers' money, and overthrew the tables;
    JOHN 2:15
    I confess today, that zeal for Your house has consumed me! Move in my life so that I can stand for what is righteous, help me so that I can stand for what is godly. Move in my life and allow me to understand heavenly matters. As I look to You, Jesus, help me to understand that God loved me so much that He sent You as a bridge to connect me back into His loving arms. I praise You Lord that as I believe in Jesus Christ I will have access to eternal life. I thank You that You did not send Jesus to condemn me but to rescue me from my sins and from myself. I declare that I am new and restored because I now have You in my life. In Jesus’ Name, Amen. 🙏🏾

  • Episode 1456 - Jarvis Kingston I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. -Philippians 4:13 & Psalm Psalm 70:4 NFL Football
    Sep 5 2025
    Your Nightly Prayer 🙏🏾 Psalm 70:4

    I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. -Philippians 4:13

    DEVOTION
    Based on Philippians 4
    Paul writes from prison, yet claims unlimited capability. The secret? 'Through Christ'—not around Him, not near Him, but through Him. This isn't prosperity gospel promising earthly success, but spiritual triumph in any circumstance. 'All things' means exactly what God calls you to, nothing more, nothing less. Strength isn't mustered; it's received. Christ doesn't just help; He empowers.
    A.C.T.S. REFLECTION
    ADORATION: Lord Christ, You are my strength, my power, my ability. In You, impossibilities become possibilities. I worship You, divine enabler.


    CONFESSION: I confess trying to do life in my own strength and failing.


    THANKSGIVING: Thank You for being my constant source of strength.


    SUPPLICATION: Strengthen me through Your power to do all You've called me to today.

    PRAYER
    Let all those who seek you rejoice and be glad in you. Let those who love your salvation continually say, 'Let God be exalted!'
    PSALM 70:4
    Dear God, as I lay down to rest my weary body and mind, I come to You with a humble heart, seeking Your divine presence and grace. Lord, I ask that You relieve me of the shame that weighs heavy on my soul. The mistakes I have made and the wrongs I have committed haunt me day and night. But I know that I can be free from this burden with Your guidance and forgiveness. Please give me the strength to confront and overcome my past. Remove my shame and guilt, and replace them with Your loving mercy and compassion. As I close my eyes and drift into a peaceful sleep, I trust Your infinite wisdom and grace to guide me through life's challenges. In Jesus’ Name, Amen. 🙏🏾

  • Episode 1455 - Jarvis Kingston I will praise the name of God with a song and will magnify him with thanksgiving Psalm 68:30 Matthew 11:28-30
    Sep 4 2025
    Your Nightly Prayer 🙏🏾 Psalm 69:30

    Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. -Matthew 11:28

    Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. -Matthew 11:29

    For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. -Matthew 11:30

    DEVOTION
    Based on Matthew 11
    Jesus extends the most personal invitation in Scripture—not to the qualified but to the weary. 'Labour and heavy laden' describes every soul carrying life's weight. The promise isn't removal of burdens but rest while bearing them. This isn't the rest of inactivity but of intimacy—finding strength in His presence. He who spoke worlds into existence whispers peace to tired hearts.
    A.C.T.S. REFLECTION
    ADORATION: Lord Jesus, You are the rest-giver, the burden-bearer, the soul's true home. Your invitation excludes no one. I worship You, compassionate Savior.


    CONFESSION: I confess I often try to carry my burdens alone, too proud to come.


    THANKSGIVING: Thank You for Your open invitation and promised rest.


    SUPPLICATION: Help me lay down my heavy loads at Your feet today.

    PRAYER
    I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving.
    PSALM 69:30
    Dear Lord, sometimes the worries and burdens of life keep me from truly resting in You. I feel like I’m treading water and losing strength. I am weary, Lord, and cry out to You for rest. Meet me in my weakness, gracious God. Come to me in the night and restore rest to my reeling soul. Answer me tonight as I seek to sleep. When I am in pain, comfort me. When I am anxious, give me peace. Let the hush of heaven envelop me like a warm blanket. I know You will be faithful to me. You have repeatedly proven that You can be relied upon to restore, renew, and refresh. I will wait for You and close my eyes. I will breathe in with trust, and exhale a song of praise to You. In Jesus’ name, I pray, Amen. 🙏🏾

  • Episode 1454 - Jarvis Kingston And there came a voice from heaven, saying, Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased Mark 1:11 Amen
    Sep 3 2025
    Your Daily Prayer 🙏🏾 Mark 1:11

    Obedience opens the door for God’s glory to be revealed.

    Today’s daily devotional is about Jesus' baptism by John and His temptation in the wilderness. God's voice affirmed Jesus' divine sonship, and after fasting for forty days, Jesus resisted Satan's temptations, demonstrating His faithfulness and strength.
    STORY
    Bible in a Year: Baptism and Temptation
    Scripture
    And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

    Matthew 3:17
    Have you ever faced a pivotal moment that shaped your future?

    Jesus experienced such a moment when He was baptized by John the Baptist. As Jesus rose from the waters of the Jordan, the heavens opened, and God's voice proclaimed, "This is my Son, whom I love; with Him I am well pleased." This divine affirmation marked the beginning of Jesus' public ministry, signaling His unique role in God's plan of salvation.

    How do you respond to God’s calling in your life?

    John the Baptist, despite his initial hesitation, obeyed Jesus' request to be baptized. His obedience allowed God's glory to be revealed in a profound way. Similarly, when we step out in faith and obedience, we open the door for God to work through us.

    What temptations challenge your faith and resolve?

    Immediately after His baptism, Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, where He fasted for forty days and faced intense temptations from Satan. Each temptation was a test of His trust in God's provision, protection, and plan. Jesus' unwavering reliance on God's word and His rejection of Satan's offers serve as a powerful example of steadfast faith.

    How can you strengthen your resolve against temptation?

    Jesus' responses to Satan were rooted in Scripture, highlighting the importance of knowing and meditating on God's word. In times of trial, we too can draw strength from God's promises, resisting the allure of quick fixes or worldly solutions.

    REFLECTION
    Reflect on your own moments of divine calling and the challenges that followed. Are there areas where you need to trust more in God’s provision and protection?

    This week, focus on strengthening your spiritual discipline through prayer, fasting, and studying Scripture. Follow Jesus' example by standing firm against temptations with the truth of God's word.

    FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT ACTION: SELF-CONTROL
    Limit your screen time by 30 minutes today and spend that time in prayer or reflection.

    PRAYER
    And there came a voice from heaven, saying, Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
    MARK 1:11
    As I step into my purpose I thank You that, like Jesus, I am being baptized into my new life and mission here on earth. Before I even begin, I thank You that also like Jesus, You have affirmed and validated me as Your Child. With my identity secured, I know that even as I walk through the deserts of temptation You are with me and have equipped me to overcome the lies of Satan. When I am tempted with comfort instead of commitment I will remind Satan of Your Word and command him to flee. When Satan tries to get me to doubt my identity I will remind him that I am fearfully and wonderfully made. When Satan tempts me with the luxury and fame of this world I will remind him that the source of my fulfillment comes from You Lord and that it is You who elevates me, and I will command him to flee! I thank You Lord that through Your word I have supernatural steadfastness and resolve. Satan has no authority over my life, and through the Life and death of Jesus I have complete victory! In Jesus’ Name, Amen. 🙏🏾

  • Episode 1453 - Jarvis Kingston And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit filled with wisdom and the grace of God was upon him Luke 2:40
    Sep 2 2025
    Your Daily Prayer 🙏🏾 Luke 2:40

    Spiritual growth begins with a thirst for God’s Word.

    Today’s daily devotional is about young Jesus staying behind in the Temple during Passover. Despite His parents’ concern, Jesus was deeply engaged in learning and teaching. This story highlights His early understanding of His divine mission and His growth in wisdom and favor.
    STORY
    Bible in a Year: Young Jesus
    Scripture
    And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man.

    Luke 2:52
    Have you ever felt a deep sense of purpose, even from a young age?

    Jesus, even as a boy, demonstrated a clear understanding of His mission. During an annual Passover visit, Mary and Joseph realized Jesus was not with their group as they left Jerusalem. After three anxious days, they found Him in the Temple, deeply engaged in learning and discussing God’s word with the priests.

    What can we learn from young Jesus' dedication to His purpose?

    Despite His tender age, Jesus showed a remarkable commitment to understanding and teaching God's word. His eagerness to learn and His profound questions astonished the religious teachers. This incident highlights the importance of nurturing our spiritual growth from a young age and seeking wisdom diligently.

    How do you respond when God’s plans are not fully understood by those around you?

    Mary and Joseph didn’t fully grasp Jesus’ actions, yet He respectfully obeyed them, returning to Nazareth. Jesus’ obedience to His earthly parents, while fully aware of His divine mission, teaches us the value of humility and submission in our relationships.

    What steps can you take to grow in wisdom and favor with God and others?

    Jesus’ growth in wisdom, stature, and favor with God and man exemplifies a balanced life dedicated to spiritual, intellectual, and social development. As we reflect on His childhood, we are reminded to seek continuous growth in our faith and to live a life that honors God in every aspect.

    REFLECTION
    Reflect on your own spiritual journey and areas where you can grow in wisdom and favor. Are there aspects of your life where you need to seek more understanding or show greater humility?

    This week, commit to deepening your relationship with God through prayer, study, and reflection. Emulate Jesus’ dedication to learning and His obedience to His parents.

    FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT ACTION: SELF-CONTROL
    Choose water instead of a sugary drink today.

    PRAYER
    And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him.
    LUKE 2:40
    As I continue to grow I thank You that I am increasing in wisdom and understanding like Jesus. Even when others don’t understand the magnitude of my calling I will remain true to what You’ve placed inside of me Lord. I choose to understand that sometimes the people closest to me won’t understand my anointing and that’s ok. Nevertheless I will not shrink or play small when it comes to walking in my divine identity. With Jesus as my focus I will learn to walk and talk in confidence as He did! I am ready to live to my fullest and be involved with my Heavenly Fathers Business…In Jesus’ Name, Amen. 🙏🏾

  • Episode 1452 - Jarvis Kingston He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. -1 John 4:8 US Open Brittany Renner Naomi Osaka CoCo WWE
    Sep 1 2025
    Your Nightly Prayer 🙏🏾 Psalm 66:5

    He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. -1 John 4:8

    DEVOTION
    Based on 1 John 4
    John makes the boldest statement in Scripture: God doesn't just have love or show love—He IS love. Love is His essence, His nature, His very being. Everything God does flows from love because He cannot act contrary to His nature. The test of knowing God isn't theological knowledge but love expression. If we don't love, we don't know God, regardless of our religious credentials. This verse both comforts and challenges.

    It comforts because God's every action toward us is motivated by love. It challenges because our love—or lack of it—reveals our true relationship with God. To know God is to become increasingly loving because we're being transformed into His image.
    A.C.T.S. REFLECTION
    ADORATION: God, You are love itself—pure, perfect, eternal love. Every attribute You possess is expressed through love. You cannot act outside of love because love is who You are.

    CONFESSION: I confess that my lack of love reveals my shallow knowledge of You. I've claimed to know You while living unlovingly. My heart has been cold when Yours burns with love.

    THANKSGIVING: Thank You that You are love—not sometimes but always, not partially but completely. Thank You that knowing You means being transformed by love and into love.

    SUPPLICATION: Father, help me know You more deeply so I can love more truly. Transform my heart to reflect Your loving nature. Let my life be proof that I know the God who is love.
    ❤️

    PRAYER
    Come, and see God’s deeds— awesome work on behalf of the children of men.
    PSALM 66:5
    Dear God, tonight as I wind down, I am reminded of the still waters that calm my soul. Your presence calms me like gentle waves against the shore. I thank You for the gift of another day. The challenges and triumphs of today have brought me one step closer to fulfilling Your purpose for my life. And as I close my eyes tonight, I pray that You will attend to the voice of my prayer and hear my deepest desires. Help me to align my will with Yours and to trust that Your plans for me are more extraordinary than anything I can imagine. May I rest knowing that You are the living water that quenches my thirst for meaning and purpose. Thank You, God, for the peace that comes from knowing that You are always with me. May Your love surround me like the waves of the sea, carrying me into a deep and restful sleep. In Jesus’s holy name, I pray, Amen. 🙏🏾

  • Episode 1451 - Jarvis Kingston By awesome deeds of righteousness, you answer us, God of our salvation. You who are the hope of all the ends
    Aug 31 2025
    Your Nightly Prayer 🙏🏾 Psalm 65:5

    This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you. -John 15:12

    DEVOTION
    Based on John 15
    Jesus makes love a command, not a suggestion. "As I have loved you" sets an impossible standard—sacrificial, unconditional, laying-down-your-life love. He demonstrated this love hours later on the cross. This isn't loving the lovable but loving like Jesus: washing feet of betrayers, forgiving crucifiers, embracing outcasts. "One another" means within the body of Christ, our love should be so radical that the world takes notice.

    This commandment isn't about feeling but choosing—deciding to love when it's difficult, inconvenient, or costly. When Christians love each other with Christ's love, we become living proof of the gospel. The world can argue with our theology but not with our love.
    A.C.T.S. REFLECTION
    ADORATION: Lord Jesus, Your love sets the standard—selfless, sacrificial, boundless. You loved us when we were unlovable, served us when we deserved judgment.

    CONFESSION: I confess loving conditionally, not as You loved. I've withheld love from difficult people, loved only those who love me back. My love has been shallow compared to Yours.

    THANKSGIVING: Thank You for showing me what love looks like through Your life and death. Thank You for commanding love, making it non-optional. Thank You for empowering me to love like You.

    SUPPLICATION: Lord, help me obey this commandment today. Show me someone who needs Your love through me. Give me strength to love sacrificially, especially when it's hard.

    PRAYER
    By awesome deeds of righteousness, you answer us, God of our salvation. You who are the hope of all the ends of the earth, of those who are far away on the sea.
    PSALM 65:5
    Dear Lord, as I lay down to rest, I am grateful for the goodness and grace surrounding me. In this peaceful moment, I lift my voice to You, O God of our salvation, with all the gratitude and gladness of a heart that knows Your love. By marvelous deeds, You answer me with righteousness, and in the stillness of this night, I am filled with wonder at the majesty of Your creation. The stars that twinkle above me cast a glow of peace and tranquility, and the soft rustling of the leaves reminds me that I am never truly alone. Even as I close my eyes, I feel Your spirit comforting and keeping me safe. At this moment, I know that I am loved and cherished and that nothing can ever separate me from Your embrace. As I drift off to sleep, I give thanks for the beauty surrounding me and the landscape that speaks of Your glory and power. Keep me safe and secure in Your perfect love. In Jesus’ name, I pray, Amen. 🙏🏾
