Jesus is Real Radio with Daniel Fusco

What you set your focus on has a huge impact on your emotional outlook. Pastor Daniel echoes this in today’s teaching, encouraging you to look for things to be grateful for. As you learn about how the Israelites sang praises to God after seeing His provision, you’ll be reminded to look for ways that God comes through for you. If you do this, you’ll have a much more joyful experience than if you focus on how things aren’t going your way.

It’s happened to everyone. You walk into a room to get something and you can’t remember what it is. At some point along the way, you got distracted from your goal. Today, Pastor Daniel urges you to fight against distractions, like complaining, that steal your joy and derail what God is trying to do. You’ll learn that complaining is a matter of the heart. As God changes your heart, you’ll better remember who God is and His vision for your life.

People can learn a lot about who you are and what you value by watching how you live your life. Today, Pastor Daniel reminds you that your life might be the only Bible that people ever read. How you live is important because you are representing God to the world around you. The things you do and say show people what God’s like and if it’s worth it to follow Him. You’ll discover that God gives you the Holy Spirit to help you navigate life with confidence.

As much as you may not like it, the truth is that most of your personal growth happens when you’re in the midst of hard things. Today, Pastor Daniel reminds you that these “wintery” times are essential to helping you be grounded in the Lord. He encourages you to have the perspective that God can use the challenging things in your life to spur you on to transformation. When you share God’s outlook, you can yield to His work more easily.

It’s an amazing feeling when someone knows your ugly secrets and loves you anyway. Well, today Pastor Daniel reminds you that Jesus knows everything about you and still loves you and wants a relationship with you. As you continue working through this study of Numbers, you’ll learn that there is great freedom in not having to pretend that you’ve got it all together. You can be honest about your failures without fear that Jesus will reject you.

There’s nothing like taking a shower after working out or doing a really dirty job. It just feels good to be clean again. Well, today Pastor Daniel invites you to consider the reality that your soul needs to be cleaned up just like your body. As you explore the purification rituals God’ gave the Israelites, you’ll see that every mistake you make creates a rift between you and God. You need His cleansing and forgiveness to be made right with Him again.

What gets the best parts of you every day? Is it your job? Your exercise routine? Your family? Today on Jesus is Real Radio, Pastor Daniel explains that God should get your very best, what the Bible calls your first fruits. He challenges you to talk to God about how to use your gifts and abilities in a way that blesses Him. When you seek the Lord and give Him your best, you’ll be better able to experience the amazing life he wants you to have.

When things get hard, you may question if what you’re doing is worth it, if it matters enough to make the struggle count. Well, today Pastor Daniel encourages you to remember that the benefits of doing what God is asking of you are far greater than the cost. Yes, it might be hard or costly or exhausting, but in God’s economy, it matters. Pastor Daniel urges you to focus on the blessings, tangible or not, as you keep on doing what God has asked.

For a lot of people, struggling is prime soil for complaining. When things get hard or you feel unhappy, it’s easy to slip into grumbling. Well, today, Pastor Daniel shares that though you may not like what’s going on, it’s not good to complain. When you complain you’re telling God that He’s not good and that you know better than He does. Not only is this attitude sinful, but it will cause you to miss out on the good that He wants to do in your life.

Whether you’re surrounded by people or not, sometimes you just feel alone. But the truth is that, as a child of God, you are never alone. In today’s message, Pastor Daniel urges you to remember that Jesus is there, constantly praying for you. No matter how alone you feel, the Great High Priest knows what’s going on and is interceding on your behalf. He is invested in seeing you flourish and grow as you move forward one step at a time.
