Have you ever stared at a wall in your life and wondered why God just left it there instead of blasting it away? Today, Pastor Ron shows you the walls of Jericho weren’t there to keep Israel out; they were there to bring the best out of God’s people. Every impossible obstacle you face is hand-picked by God as a faith test: “Will you trust Me when there’s no human way forward?” He doesn’t drop difficulties on you to crush you; He does it to reveal the courage, obedience, and power He’s already put inside you. 

Have you ever forgotten that the war is already won and you’re still swinging like the outcome depends on you? Today, Pastor Ron shouts it again: Jesus already crushed sin, death, and the devil at the cross, fulfilled the law, and handed you the victory. Romans 8 declares you’re not just a conqueror; you’re more than a conqueror through Him. If God is for you, then nothing that rises against you can actually win. The battle is over; the only thing left is for you to walk it out in faith and obedience.

Have you ever hit a dry season and forgotten every single time God came through for you? Today, Pastor Ron calls you back to the pile of memorial stones you’ve been ignoring. When the hope feels thin, you don’t need a new miracle yet; you need to remember the old ones. That door God opened when every door was slammed; each one is a stone shouting, “He was faithful then, and He hasn’t changed.” The drought doesn’t mean He forgot you; it means it’s time to pick up the stones you’ve laid down.

Have you ever hit an obstacle and immediately started looking for the detour sign? Today, Pastor Ron says God doesn’t usually move the mountain; He walks you straight through it. You want it gone completely, but His plan is right down the middle where the fire burns hottest. Your faith is more precious than gold, and fire is the only thing that proves it’s real. The pain, the pressure, none of it is punishment; it’s purification so that when you come out the other side, Jesus gets every ounce of praise, honor, and glory. 

Have you ever lived so long in Christian bubbles that you forget most people you pass every day are headed to eternity without Jesus? Today, Pastor Ron holds up Rahab’s heart as a mirror: the second she got saved, she couldn’t stop thinking about the family and friends still marked for judgment. That raw, urgent fire is exactly what bursts out of every new believer before distractions start cooling it off. You don’t have to leave your Christian groups to seek the lost; you just have to stop looking past them.

Have you ever wondered why so many born-again believers still live defeated when victory is already theirs? Today, Pastor Ron draws the line clear: you can be genuinely saved yet still refuse to walk in the Spirit. When you don’t yield, you stay stuck, missing every promise, every freedom, every stronghold-breaking power Jesus paid for. But the moment you surrender control to the Spirit, chains snap, victory becomes normal, and you finally step into everything that’s been yours since the cross.

Have you ever tried to get closer to God without first dealing with your sin? Today, Pastor Ron shows that the very first thing anyone saw entering the tabernacle was the brazen altar, the place of sacrifice. That altar points straight to the cross. You can’t skip it, clean up later, or come another way. Jesus offered Himself once for all sins, forever, and then sat down at the right hand of the Father because the work is finished. Your walk with God starts right there, at the cross where all was paid for.

Have you ever prayed for something impossible and then secretly hoped people would notice your part when it happened? Today, Pastor Ron celebrates the simple truth: you laid the need before God, you asked, and He answered in a way no human could claim. No one gets to stand up and say, “Look what I did,” no one gets a plaque, no one’s name lasts five minutes. That’s the beauty of it; your fingerprints fade the moment His hand shows up. The miracle isn’t about you; it’s about His glory alone.

We all have routines… waking up, going to work, getting the kids ready. But in the midst of it all, it’s easy to forget to spend intentional time with God, just… be with Him. And sometimes, the time we do set aside can feel rushed or distracted. That’s why in today’s message, Pastor Ron encourages us to make a small sacrifice: to choose a moment each day to worship God, giving Him your undivided attention, your heart fully present, and time to commune with Him as our Lord and Savior.

As we walk through life, we see how God reveals Himself through the Body of Christ, through the ministry of the local church, and through His Word. But one day, we will see Him face to face, and that moment will be unlike anything we’ve ever experienced. In today’s message, Pastor Ron encourages you to keep your eyes on that day… to maintain a heavenly mindset, and to run the race of life faithfully so that when you meet your Heavenly Father, He says those words, “Well done, my good and faithful servant.”
