  • The Crosswalk Devotional: A Daily Devotional Chris... - God Is Not Rushing You

    The invitation God gives us is often the opposite of what our instincts tell us. When problems arise, we want to fix, plan, and act. But God invites us to pause and remember that He is already present and working. Time spent with Him is never wasted; it is where our hearts are renewed and our souls are restored.

    God is not asking us to accomplish more to earn His love. He is inviting us into relationship with Him. Whether it is thirty minutes or just a few quiet moments throughout the day, sitting in God’s presence, reading His Word, and praying allows us to step away from the rush and experience His peace.

    Jesus Himself was never hurried or driven by the need to prove His worth through productivity. Through Him, we are reminded that we do not have to carry burdens God never intended for us to hold. When we return to Him, we find the rest and strength we need for each day.

    Highlights:

    • God does not measure our faithfulness by how busy we are, but by how closely we walk with Him.
    • Isaiah reminds us that true strength comes through returning to God, resting, and trusting Him.
    • Productivity can become a burden when we believe our worth depends on what we accomplish.
    • Spending quiet time with God restores our hearts and helps us recognize His presence.
    • Jesus invites the weary and burdened to come to Him and receive rest.
    • Slowing down creates space to hear God’s voice and trust His direction.

    God Is Not Rushing You
    By Sarah Frazer

    Bible Reading:
    “For thus said the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel, ‘In returning and rest you shall be saved; in quietness and in trust shall be your strength.’ Therefore the Lord waits to be gracious to you, and therefore he exalts himself to show mercy to you. For the Lord is a God of justice; blessed are all those who wait for him.” - Isaiah 30:15, 18

  • Encounter the Truth - The Cost of Self-Reliance (Part 2 of 2)

    Abram and Sarai knew the promise of God, but grew impatient with God’s timeline, not seeing how the promise could be fulfilled. They took matters into their own hands to further God’s agenda—and the results were disastrous. In this messy incident, we see the cost of sinful self-reliance and the abundant grace of God.

  • Thru the Bible on Oneplace.com - Matthew 2:12—3:9
    Matthew 2 tells us about the fulfillment of four unusual prophecies about the birth of Christ. Each of them seemed to contradict the others when they were given. Dr. J. Vernon McGee explains how they were all literally fulfilled, even in a most unusual prophecy, the last of the Old Testament.

  • Leading The Way Radio Podcast - Judge Yourself First

    Jesus’ words in Matthew 7 are often twisted to silence Truth. But Christ did not command His followers to ignore sin. He warned against self-righteous judgment while calling believers to examine their own hearts first.

    In this final message, Dr. Michael Youssef exposes the abuse of “Judge not” and restores Jesus’ true meaning. Believers must never pretend to know motives, but we must lovingly confront sin with Truth, humility, and obedience to Scripture.

    Dr. Youssef warns that self-righteous criticism invites God’s judgment, while repentance opens the door to restoration. As followers of Jesus Christ, the divine Son of God, we are called to discern rightly, intercede faithfully, and live in unity for the advance of the Gospel.

    This episode calls you to:

    • Repent of pride and self-righteous criticism,
    • Examine your own heart before confronting others,
    • Speak Truth with humility and love,
    • Practice Biblical discernment,
    • Intercede for the Church’s unity and witness,
    • Obey Scripture for the sake of Gospel effectiveness.

      • Scripture Focus: Matthew 7:1–6

       If today’s teaching stirred a question, burden, or need for prayer, you don’t have to walk through it alone.
