“For the LORD knows the way of the righteous, But the way of the wicked will perish.” — Psalms 1:6 (NKJV)

Life can sometimes feel unfair. You might find yourself in situations where people misunderstand you, misjudge your intentions, or accuse you of things you never did. Your heart may be heavy with sadness, especially when you try to explain yourself but no one seems to listen or believe you.

There are seasons when you work hard, give your best, and walk in integrity, yet your efforts go unnoticed. You may watch others who cut corners, gossip, or lie rise in favor and promotions, while you remain unappreciated and overlooked.

But today, I want to encourage you: God sees. God knows. And God fights.

Psalm 1:6 reminds us that the Lord knows the way of the righteous. That means He is fully aware of your journey, your heart, your labor, and your pain. You're not hidden from Him. Every time you choose integrity over compromise, truth over deceit, or patience over vengeance, God takes note.

In Psalms 37:1-6, God tells you: "Do not fret because of evildoers, Nor be envious of the workers of iniquity. For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, And wither as the green herb. Trust in the LORD, and do good; Dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness. Delight yourself also in the LORD, and He shall give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the LORD, Trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass. He shall bring forth your righteousness as the light, And your justice as the noonday."

So, don’t give up. Don’t lose heart. God knows your name, your work, your tears, and your silence. And in due time, He will fight for you, lift you up, and silence every false voice.

Prayer: (Psalm 10:17-18) LORD, You have heard the desire of the humble; You will prepare their heart; You will cause Your ear to hear, To do justice to the fatherless and the oppressed, That the man of the earth may oppress no more.

Woe to those who seek deep to hide their counsel far from the Lord, and their works are in the dark; they say, “Who sees us?” and, “Who knows us?” — Isaiah 29:15 (NKJV)

Many people live as though God does not see. But Isaiah 29:15 is a warning to all who try to hide their sin and act holy before men. God is not blind. He knows everything (omniscient), He is all-powerful (omnipotent), and He is everywhere (omnipresent). You cannot escape His eyes. What you do in the dark, God sees it as clearly as daylight.

Nobody wants to be seen as evil or wicked. No one wants public shame. But unfortunately, there’s too much hypocrisy in the church today. People commit abominations in secret but present themselves as holy, kind, and loving on the outside. They even go as far as judging others for small mistakes while hiding great wickedness in their own lives.

God says: “Woe unto you.” If you think He doesn’t see your pride, your lust, your lies, your cheating, your secret sin—wake up! Stop pretending. Don’t play holy while your heart is filthy. Don’t exalt yourself while sin rules your soul.

Be humble. If you can’t stop sinning, ask God to help you. Don’t fight alone and don’t cover your guilt with self-righteousness. Come out of darkness before God exposes you. If He exposes you, shame will come not just in this world, but eternal judgment awaits in hell.

This message is not for someone else. It’s for you. God is speaking to your heart right now. Repent. Confess your sins. Turn back. He is ready to forgive you. But don’t delay. You are not guaranteed tomorrow.

Prayer: Lord, you see me. Help me stop pretending. I surrender. Forgive me, cleanse me, change me, and give me a new life.

“Thus says the LORD, your Redeemer, The Holy One of Israel: ‘I am the LORD your God, Who teaches you to profit, Who leads you by the way you should go.’” – Isaiah 48:17 (NKJV)

God introduces Himself as Redeemer — our Savior and Deliverer. But when it comes to the matters of success and profit, He switches the tone. He says He teaches. This clearly reveals that profit doesn’t just fall from the sky; it must be learned. There is a class of success and prosperity that God invites His people to attend. This class is about divine instruction and practical application. And the result of attending it is Profit.

Profit refers to advantageous results — the increase, success, multiplication, and fruitfulness of your efforts. Be it business, career, ministry, or personal goals, God expects your efforts to bring tangible results. Many believers wrongly assume that prayer alone guarantees success. While prayer is powerful, success comes when prayer is combined with relevant knowledge and obedience.

For example, Jacob was taught by God how to multiply his flock. Through a divine strategy involving tree branches and mating patterns, Jacob experienced supernatural increase (Genesis 30:37-43). He didn’t just sit and pray, he did what God taught him.

Likewise, Isaac was instructed to stay in Gerar and sow in that land. Despite famine, he obeyed and reaped a hundredfold harvest that made him wealthier than kings (Genesis 26:1-14). Both Jacob and Isaac followed God’s way, and it led to undeniable profit.

The way you are going—whether in business, ministry, or life—determines your outcome. If your direction is God’s direction, then your result will be supernatural success. But if you ignore His teachings and just “believe and pray,” you may face frustration. Enroll in God’s class of success—seek His knowledge, obey His instruction, and walk the path He shows you.

Prayer: Lord, teach me to profit. Show me the path of success. Help me obey Your wisdom in everything I do.

-------------------

Proverbs 5:23 (NLT) says, “He will die for lack of self-control; he will be lost because of his great foolishness.

This verse is a powerful exposé on why many people—yes, even great men and women—fall. It reveals that destruction is not just a result of failure, but often the result of ignoring instruction and lacking discipline. Everyone wants to achieve something meaningful in life—great goals, powerful impact, massive success. But many never arrive, and even among those who do, some fall miserably after tasting success. Why? Because discipline is not just a pathway to success; it is the guardrail that keeps you in success.

Proverbs 5 tells us that without discipline and self-control, people die—not just physically, but also in their careers, relationships, and dreams. A business without discipline in spending and planning will die. A marriage without self-control in words and actions will wither. A ministry, calling, or purpose with no boundaries and restraint will collapse. The same applies to your body—without discipline in rest, food, and habits, the body deteriorates.

Foolishness is when you choose to ignore wise counsel, instruction, and proven principles, and instead act on impulse or pride. Many people are not destroyed by demons or enemies—they are destroyed by their own inability to say no to themselves. Without self-control, you become your own greatest enemy.

If you want to live, you must be disciplined. If you want your business to grow, you must control your expenditures. If you want your ministry to last, you must master your habits. If you want your marriage to thrive, you must govern your emotions. Discipline is not a punishment—it is a protection. It is not a burden—it is a builder.

Success without discipline is a tragedy waiting to happen. True greatness is not just in rising high, but in staying there without falling. And staying requires self-control.

Prayer: Lord, give me the grace to walk in discipline, embrace instruction, master myself, and sustain every blessing You give me. Amen.

"But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ." Ephesians 2:13 (NKJV)

I have good news for you today; Our God is a God who is full of mercy and love for His people and for you. But in the Old Covenant, we were separated from God because of our sins and wrongdoings. Because of sin, there was enmity between us and God. Isaiah 59:1–2 says:

"Behold, the Lord’s hand is not shortened, That it cannot save; Nor His ear heavy, That it cannot hear. But your iniquities have separated you from your God; And your sins have hidden His face from you So that He will not hear."

Then, in verse 3, He explains the reason:

"For your hands are defiled with blood, And your fingers with iniquity; Your lips have spoken lies, Your tongue has muttered perversity."

But because our God is full of love, and He wants you to be close to Him—and He wants to be close to you—He sent Jesus to make peace between us and Him through His death on the cross.

And after that work of peace was done, His Word says: "But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ."

So today, know that the separation that was between you and God has been removed by the power of Jesus' blood.

Do not see yourself as someone who is not accepted by God or as someone abandoned by Him. Even if you are facing challenges, God is with you to save you. Even if you have weaknesses, God is with you to help you.

You are no longer God's enemy—you are His child whom He loves so much.

Prayer: Lord Jesus, I thank You for the reconciliation You made for me. I confess and believe that I am loved and accepted by God, my Father. Amen.

"Seeing then that we have a great High Priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. Hebrews 4:14 (NKJV)"

After the resurrection, Jesus ascended into heaven. He went into the Holy of Holies in heaved as a High Priest with his own blood to obtain the salvation of the whole world. And he is forever sitted in Heaven as our High Priest always praying for us. One of the things that should give you courage is knowing that Jesus Christ is your High Priest. This is good news because this High Priest, who is now in heaven, lived a life like yours. He was tempted and tested by the devil, just like you. So, He fully understands what you are going through.

The Bible says:
"For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we  are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need. Hebrews 4:15–16 (NKJV)"

So you need to be brave and believe that God hears you—not just because you pray, but because you have a High Priest who prays for you. And He doesn't just pray for you, He also understands your struggles.

If your body is weak, He knows that very well. If you are facing life challenges, Jesus knows them too because He lived on earth. He went through hard times, poverty, rejection, lies, and hatred. Jesus also took away your sicknesses, and He knows the pain you are feeling.

Jesus Christ is now sitting at the right hand of God the Father, praying for you. So don’t give up. Even if you fall, get up again and be strong in this word. Give Him all the burdens that are too heavy for you.

Prayer: Thank You, Lord Jesus, for being my High Priest. Today I give You my life—help me in all my weaknesses. Amen.

"Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him." Romans 6:8 NIV

As you continue to reflect and remember the death of our Savior, the Word of God reminds you that when Jesus died on the cross, He took all your sins and every burden that was heavy on your life.

As Christians, we strongly believe that we were crucified with Jesus by faith. To be crucified with Him means that Jesus carried all our weaknesses and went with them to the cross so He could judge them. When He died, we also died with Him by faith. And when He rose again, we also rose with Him by faith as new people.

In the book of Romans 6:5–13, the Word of God says:

"Now if we have died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him, For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we will certainly also be united with him in a resurrection like his. For we know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body ruled by sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves to sin—because anyone who has died has been set free from sin.

Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him. For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over him. The death he died, he died to sin once for all; but the life he lives, he lives to God. In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus.

Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its evil desires. Do not offer any part of yourself to sin as an instrument of wickedness, but rather offer yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life; and offer every part of yourself to him as an instrument of righteousness. For sin shall no longer be your master, because you are not under the law, but under grace."

So today, believe that all your weaknesses and sufferings were crucified with Christ. The old you is dead once and for all, you are a new creature. This is the power of the cross.

Prayer: Lord Jesus, thank You for the grace of Your Cross. I lay down all my burdens at Your cross so I can be free. Amen.

"Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day." John 6:54

Let me start by telling you this: make sure you do not miss this holy service today — the Holy Communion service. Many churches are holding this service today. If your church is not having it today, make sure you attend and take part on the day it is held.

Now, today I want you to understand why Jesus told us to eat His body and drink His blood. Also, I want you to know the benefits of taking this Holy Sacrament.

Here are the reasons and benefits:

1. We enter and celebrate the covenant of salvation and eternal life.
When we take this Holy Sacrament, we are agreeing and accepting the covenant that Jesus died and gave His life (His Body and Blood) so we can have eternal life. This is the main reason Jesus came to earth — so that you may have eternal life and on the last day, He will raise you up and take you to heaven.
"John 6:54 — Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day."
"Luke 22:20 — In the same way, after supper He took the cup, saying, ‘This cup is the new covenant in My blood, which is poured out for you.’"

2. We eat His body and drink His blood to be united in spirit with Him.
This means we live in Him, and He lives in us. John 6:56 says "Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood remains in Me, and I in him."

3. To receive life and healing in our physical bodies.
There are two things I want you to see: eternal life and life in your physical body (your health). When you eat the Body and drink the Blood of Jesus, you receive both — eternal life and life in your body. You become strong, and death and sickness leave your body. You are made alive and well through the power of Christ. John 6:57 says "As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so the one who feeds on Me will live because of Me."

4. We take this Sacrament because it is a command from our Lord Jesus Christ.
He told us to do this in remembrance of Him. Luke 22:19 says "And He took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, ‘This is My body given for you; do this in remembrance of Me.’" When we take this Sacrament, we remember that Jesus died for us on the cross to set us free from all bondage of sin and death.

There are many more benefits, but these are the most important. So make sure you don’t miss this special service of Holy Communion.

Prayer: Lord Jesus, Thank You for giving Your Body and Your Blood so I can be saved from the bondage of sin and death, and have life and eternal life.

“The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.” – John 10:10

In this chapter 10 of the book of John, Jesus was explaining who He is by using examples and comparisons. He used this method because He wanted to deal with a big problem: the lies that have troubled humans from the beginning of the world until now.

This lie is when the devil comes to a person pretending to offer a solution to their problems—but in truth, he is a liar and a thief who comes only to steal, kill, and destroy. We see this from the book of Genesis when he lied to Eve.

To help us understand the truth, Jesus used examples to show that He is the true Shepherd. That means Jesus is the one who truly cares for you.

Today, many young people are being deceived, especially when looking for money and success in life. The devil, using his agents, has influenced young people to get involved in witchcraft, and cults promising that they will succeed in life.

But you must know this: the devil has no good plan for you. His only goal is to destroy your soul.

My message to you is this: true life is found in Christ, and real success comes from Him. Jesus came and died on the cross so you could be free from the chains of suffering, sickness, curses, and poverty. Only Jesus can give you true freedom and success in your life.

Jesus said, “How can Satan cast out Satan?” – Mark 3:23 The source of all your suffering today is the devil. The devil cannot remove himself from you. You must know that you need Jesus. That’s why He said: “I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.”

So today, make the decision to give all your problems to Jesus. Outside of Him, there is no help.

Prayer: Thank You, Lord Jesus, because You came so I can have life. Today, I give my life to You so I can receive Your life. Amen.

“But He knows the way that I take; When  He has tested me, I shall come forth as gold.” — Job 23:10 (NKJV)

In this verse, Job is talking about the hard times he was going through. He said important thing that also speak to your life today. He said, “God knows the way that He was taking.” This means that God sees your life. He knows what you do and where you are going—even before the hard times start in your life because your life is not hidden from Him. Every problem you face has a reason. God has a plan for you.

Sometimes, you may be living in a way that pleases God, and still, hard times come. That does not always mean you have done something wrong. But other times, your trials may be because your life is not pleasing to God. Even then, He still sees your path. He may allow the trial so that you can turn back to Him and follow His way again.

The Bible says that God does not tempt anyone. But He can allow trials to help you grow and become strong. Just like gold is made pure by fire, God can use hard times to clean your life and remove anything that is not good.

That might mean He wants you to stop doing something wrong, walk away from the wrong friends, or change a habit. Ask Him to show you why you are going through these things.

Don’t think that God has forgotten you. He is with you, and He is helping you. Some things in life must happen—they are part of your journey. But remember this: God’s goal is to make you strong.

Prayer: Lord Jesus, please show me why I am going through these hard times. Help me to walk in Your way. Make my heart strong, and help me trust You. Amen.

In my distress I called upon the Lord, And cried out to my God; He heard my voice from His temple, And my cry came before Him, even to His ears. Psalm 18:6 NKJV

The first important thing I want you to know is this: if you depend on God, there is no prayer you make that is insignificant before Him. God hears every prayer we make. Even if it's just a one-minute prayer, it's still a prayer—and you can be sure God will hear it.

Now, in this scripture, David says: *"In my distress, I called upon the Lord."* There are times when you go through tough challenges and troubles, and your heart becomes heavy or hurt to the point that you struggle to pray. But here, we see David in his distress calling upon the Lord.

The lesson here is this: Never let any trouble stop you from praying. Don't let any person stop you from praying. Never allow anyone to be a hindrance to your prayer life. Some people are fasting and praying, but they stop their fast because someone annoyed them. They find themselves irritated by someone so much that they lose the will to pray. Or they face some challenges that discourage them until they feel there's no reason to continue praying.

But actually, when you’re in trouble, that’s the best time to pray. Even if it’s just a one-minute or a few-second prayer—just pray. This verse gives you the assurance that your cry will reach God. Because sometimes, you don't even have words to pray, but even your cry—God hears it, if you're crying out to Him.

There is a difference between crying because of the pain you're going through and crying out to God. What you need to do is pour out your heart before God, even if it is only crying.

So, my message to you today is this: God is faithful—don’t stop praying. Make the effort. Prayer is a decision, not a matter of feelings. If you do so, God will hear you and answer you quickly.

Prayer: Lord Jesus, I ask for strength to keep praying to You and depending on You even when I am in hard situations. Amen.

"I will give you the treasures of darkness And hidden riches of secret places, That you may know that I, the Lord, Who call you by your name, Am the God of Israel." — Isaiah 45:3 (NKJV)

In Isaiah 45:3, God made a powerful promise. He said He would give treasures from dark places—things that are hidden and valuable. These treasures are not just gold or money, but blessings, wisdom, and divine help. God gives these treasures so we may know that He is the Lord, the one who calls us by name.

Since sin entered the world, people have lived in darkness. This darkness includes pain, fear, confusion, and spiritual emptiness. But even in the middle of this darkness, God has given us great blessings. Life itself is a treasure. His love, His presence, and the purpose He has for our lives are all treasures too.

However, the devil doesn’t want us to find or enjoy these blessings. He tries to hide them from us by filling our lives with fear, doubt, and sin. He doesn’t want us to succeed. He doesn’t want us to live in peace, joy, or freedom. The enemy's goal is to stop you from becoming what God created you to be.

But God is saying, “I will give you treasures.” He wants to open your eyes, bless your life, and give you success—so you will know that He is your God.

When God blesses you—when He brings you out of trouble, opens new doors, and answers your prayers—don’t forget Him. In Deuteronomy 8:10–11, the Bible says, “When you have eaten and are full… beware that you do not forget the LORD your God.”

Always remember that every blessing comes from Him. Stay thankful. Stay humble. And keep walking with Him every day.

Prayer: Lord, thank You for every treasure You’ve given me, even in hard times. Open my eyes to see Your blessings. Help me never to forget You, but to love and follow You always. Amen.

------------------

"Be hospitable to one another without complaint." (1 Peter 4:9, AMP)

God’s Word teaches us to be generous and hospitable without complaining. He desires that we support one another during life’s challenges. However, it is crucial to understand that any help we offer should be given willingly and with love—not out of obligation or reluctance. When complaints accompany our giving, the blessings that God has prepared for us can be hindered.

Many people complain when helping others because they expect something in return. When you help someone, do not expect them to repay your kindness in any way. Do not expect them to show you love or generosity simply because you were good to them. While there are wise individuals who appreciate and return kindness whenever possible, your assistance should never come with conditions. It should be an act of love from your heart. God is the one who sees your actions and rewards you accordingly.

Some people also complain because they feel they have done so much good, yet God has not answered their prayers. They expect that because they have helped others, God should respond to them immediately. I remember a woman who needed prayers but was frustrated with God. She said she had paid school fees for other people’s children, prayed for them until they found jobs, got married, and succeeded in life—yet her own children were still unemployed and unmarried. She was deeply hurt, feeling that God had been unfair to her.

But my dear friend, when you do good, do not expect immediate rewards. Do not assume that because you have done good, God must repay you instantly. God’s blessings come in His perfect time.

Sometimes, God prepares you first before releasing your blessings. Wait patiently—do not complain or grumble. Continue doing good, and in His faithfulness, God will bless you in His way and at His appointed time.

Prayer: Lord, teach me to be generous without complaining. Give me the grace to help others with love and patience. Help me trust that Your blessings come in Your perfect time. Amen.

-------------------

Proverbs 15:8 says: “The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord, But the prayer of the upright is His delight.”

This verse teaches us that God does not only look at what we offer Him but also at the state of our hearts. He is not pleased with sacrifices from a wicked person who lives contrary to His will. However, He delights in a person with an upright heart, even if they have nothing to offer Him.

This scripture paints a picture of our heavenly Father, who values His children not based on what they give but on how they live in obedience to Him. In everyday life, we often see favoritism within families. Some parents value their financially successful children more, without considering how they obtained their wealth. For them, money becomes the measure of their love for their children.

This same issue is seen in some churches, where certain pastors value congregants who give large offerings without considering whether their lives align with God’s will. But this is contrary to the nature of our God. He does not look at the size of your offering; He looks at your heart. He examines your life—are you living righteously? Are you walking in His ways?

To God, obedience is more valuable than a large offering given by someone living in disobedience. That is why we read in 1 Samuel 15:22 NIV: “To obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed than the fat of rams.” This means that God wants your obedience first; then, your offerings will be acceptable before Him.

This is also a call to all parents—not to show favoritism by disregarding children with less financial success while embracing those who give them money, despite knowing that their ways are ungodly. We should love and guide all our children with fairness, recognizing that character and morals are more important than financial success.

This does not mean that giving offerings is meaningless—absolutely not! Offerings are a part of worship. However, for them to be valuable before God, you must first live a righteous life before Him.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, teach me to live a life that pleases You. Give me a heart of obedience and humility before You. Lead me in Your ways and help me to be faithful to You every day. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
