WHAT ARE YOU FEEDING THE NEXT GENERATION?

WHAT ARE YOU FEEDING THE NEXT GENERATION? PART 5: WHAT ARE YOU PASSING ON? Deuteronomy 6:6–7 (NLT) “And you must commit yourselves wholeheartedly to these commands I am giving you today. Repeat them again and again to your children. Talk about them when you are at home and when you are on the road, when you are going to bed and when you are getting up.” In Part 1, we asked: WHAT ARE YOU FEEDING YOURSELF? We discovered that what we consume matters. In Part 2, we asked: WHAT HAPPENS INSIDE YOU? We learned that what enters us must be processed. In Part 3, we asked: WHAT IS FLOWING OUT OF YOU? We learned that what is inside us eventually finds expression through our words, attitudes and actions. In Part 4, we asked: WHAT ARE YOU PRODUCING? We looked at the fruit of the Spirit and discovered that our lives should produce something that others can receive. Now we come to another important question: WHAT ARE YOU PASSING ON? Because life does not end with us. Something is al...

THE UNSTAINED GARMENT: CHOOSING PURITY OVER COMPROMISE PART 12

THE UNSTAINED GARMENT: CHOOSING PURITY OVER COMPROMISE PART 12


Revelation 3:4-5

4. “Yet there are some in the church in Sardis who have not soiled their clothes with evil. They will walk with me in white, for they are worthy.

5. All who are victorious will be clothed in white. I will never erase their names from the Book of Life, but I will announce before my Father and his angels that they are mine.

Welcome to Part 12 of our series, The Unstained Garment: Choosing Purity Over Compromise.

In this chapter, we focus on Drawing Strength from God—acknowledging that true spiritual purity comes from His power working within us. Through prayer, studying His Word, and surrendering to the Holy Spirit, we can overcome life’s challenges and remain spiritually unstained.


3. Drawing Strength from God:

Just as plants draw their nutrients from the soil to grow and thrive, we must draw our strength from God through the Holy Spirit to sustain our spiritual purity on life’s journey. The apostles and faithful believers of old overcame trials by depending on God through prayer, Scripture, and the power of the Holy Spirit. Their reliance on God enabled them to remain steadfast despite challenges.


Practical Action: Develop daily habits of prayer, Bible study, and worship to strengthen your spiritual life and build resistance against temptation.


Scripture Reference: “Your word I have hidden in my heart, that I might not sin against You.” — Psalm 119:11 (NKJV)


Our strength to live pure and holy lives comes from staying connected to God through His Word and the guidance of the Holy Spirit. When we depend on Him, we can overcome every spiritual challenge.


REFLECTION:

Are you drawing your daily strength from God, or are you trying to face life’s battles alone? Reflect on what spiritual habits you may have neglected and how you can realign with God as your source of power.



This week, commit to a consistent time of prayer and Bible study. Write down one promise from Scripture each day and meditate on it. Let God’s Word fuel your purity and peace.


PRAYER:

Lord, help me stay rooted in Your Word and draw strength from Your presence. Fill me with Your Spirit and keep me steadfast in my walk with You. Amen.

WHEN FOLLOWING JESUS COSTS EVERYTHING PART 7: WHAT IS YOUR “ONE THING”?

WHEN FOLLOWING JESUS COSTS EVERYTHING PART 7: WHAT IS YOUR “ONE THING”? Luke 18:22 (NIV) When Jesus Christ heard this, he said to him, “You still lack one thing…” In Part 6, we encountered the rich young ruler—a man who was disciplined, moral, and sincere, yet walked away from Jesus Christ because of one thing he could not surrender. He was close to Jesus—but not surrendered to Him. Opening Thought 🌅 Sometimes, the greatest barrier between you and your next level in God is not many things—it is just one thing. Not obvious. Not loud. But deeply rooted. Key Phrase “ You still lack one thing …” Insight 🔍 This statement is both simple and profound. It means: You can be doing many things right… and still miss one thing. You can be progressing… and still be held back. You can be committed… and still be divided. The rich young ruler didn’t lack discipline. He lacked surrender in one area. And that one thing became everything. Deeper Application 🔥 Your “ one thing ” may not be money—but ...

THE GREAT WALL: WHEN WALLS FAIL PART 2 — THE ENEMY AT THE GATE: STRONG WALLS, WEAK WATCHMEN

Image
THE GREAT WALL: WHEN WALLS FAIL PART 2 — THE ENEMY AT THE GATE: STRONG WALLS, WEAK WATCHMEN In Part 1, we saw that walls do not fail because they are weak; they fail when the gates are compromised. Even the mighty Great Wall of China, built with stones, sweat, and sacrifice, could not stop an enemy when its gatekeepers failed. True strength lies not in the wall itself, but in the vigilance and integrity of those who guard it. Now in Part 2, we explore how weak watchmen at the gate can undo even the strongest defenses. Every wall has two sides: the builders who raise it and the watchmen who guard it. A wall can be tall, thick, ancient, and mighty…but if the hearts of its watchmen grow tired, distracted, or compromised, the enemy does not need strength — just an opportunity. The Great Wall teaches us this: Strength is useless without vigilance. Protection is fragile without attention. A boundary is only as safe as the person standing at the gate. Let’s journey deeper. THE STORY — Part 2 ...

🐦THE TAILORBIRD AND THE WISDOM OF STARTING SMALL PART 1: USING WHAT YOU HAVE IN YOUR HANDS

🐦THE TAILORBIRD AND THE WISDOM OF STARTING SMALL PART 1: USING WHAT YOU HAVE IN YOUR HANDS Exodus 4:2  “What is that in your hand?” Luke 16:10  “He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much…” PERSONAL ENCOUNTER STORY Recently, I came across something that genuinely arrested my attention. I was scrolling through TikTok one evening when I saw a short clip about a small bird called the tailorbird. At first, I thought it was just another nature video—something interesting but ordinary. But as I kept watching, something unusual happened. This tiny bird was shown “ sewing ” leaves together to build its nest. At first, I doubted it. It looked almost staged. But curiosity pushed me further. I paused the video… watched it again… and then again. That moment didn’t just stay on TikTok—it followed me off the app. I found myself searching: “ Is this real? How does a bird sew leaves?” And that was the beginning of a deeper journey. The more I researched, the more I r...
