Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from 1 Timothy 1:18–19. In this devotional, Pastor Cymbala reminds us to keep our consciences clean. Sometimes that means waking up in the middle of the night to ask forgiveness for something we said earlier! We have to be sensitive to the still, small voice of the Holy Spirit who convicts us. When we yield to Him, we keep short accounts with God and can live with good consciences.

Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from 1 Timothy 1:18. Can you recall a time when God spoke to you? Maybe he called you during a church meeting or used another believer to speak life over you. It’s important that we remember these words and allow them to stir a fire within us. Let’s live in the light of God’s calling!

Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from 1 Timothy 1:16–17. We have so much to praise God for! He is loving, just, and so merciful.

Let’s take a break today to thank and praise the Lord for the amazing things He does.

Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from 1 Timothy 1:15–16. Many of us think we’re too far gone or we’ve done too much wrong for God to use us. But look at the apostle Paul’s testimony! He called himself the worst of all sinners, not to hold himself to his past, but to illustrate that if God could use him, He could use anyone. Let’s allow the Holy Spirit to guide and use us today. We all have a testimony!

Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from 1 Timothy 1:15. In this devotional, Pastor Cymbala breaks down the apostle Paul’s famous line, “I am the chief of sinners.” We have no righteousness on our own. But Jesus gives us His! Righteousness from Christ guards us from the condemnation that the devil wishes upon us. So Paul meant no condemnation by his statement—he knew Jesus’ righteousness was on him and he was saved by grace. Hallelujah!

Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from 1 Timothy 1:13 and 15. In this devotional, Pastor Cymbala reads the reason Jesus Christ came to this world: to save sinners. We are all sinners, but we can be cleansed, redeemed, and saved forever because of God’s great love for us. But that message isn’t just for church-goers—it’s for everyone! So let’s have patience with those who are deep in their sin and show them the amazing love and salvation that God freely gives.

Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from 1 Timothy1:12–14. We have countless reasons to be thankful for God’s daily mercies. He may allow us to go through bleak and hard times—but as a famous preacher put it, a jeweler puts his best diamond on black velvet. That dark background illuminates the beautiful diamond, just like our trials illuminate God’s goodness and graciousness in our lives. Let’s thank Him for it all today!

Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from 1 Timothy 1:12. In this devotional, Pastor Cymbala reminds us who provides our strength: God! We are called to serve the Lord with gladness—but sometimes we get run down. When we can’t imagine doing any more, we need to remember where our help comes from. God promises to give us the strength we need to do what He’s called us to. Let’s live that out today!

Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from 1 Timothy 1:9–11. As Christians, we aren’t called to live under Old Testament law. At the same time, the good news of salvation has to be prefaced with the law. Why? To bring conviction of sins. We have to know and confess our sins before we can appreciate our Savior. Let’s thank Jesus for all He has saved us from!

Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from 1 Timothy 1:7–9. Born-again Christian believers are not meant to live under the law of Moses. Saying that confuses and even angers some people! But we’re helpless to abide by every single law. Jesus died on the cross so that we could get out from legalism and law-based faith. We have to tell our Savior that we’re hopeless without Him. God is our salvation and our hope.
