Donβt Give Up
Discouragement has a way of quietly working its way into our hearts. It rarely announces itself all at once. But God reminds us in today's Gem: "You will only be defeated if you give up on Me and doing what is right. Don't give up. Amen." If you're feeling weary today, don't mistake weariness for defeat. As long as you continue holding on to Christ, He is still leading you forward. Don't give up. π [SENSITIVE CONTENT]
Todayβs One Year Bible Verses: 1 Chronicles 24:1β26:11, Romans 4:1β12, Psalm 13:1β6, Proverbs 19:15β16
One Step At A Time
Discouragement has a way of quietly working its way into our hearts. It rarely announces itself all at once. More often, it begins with disappointment after an unanswered prayer, exhaustion from continually doing the right thing, or wondering if our efforts are making any difference. If left unchecked, discouragement can slowly convince us that giving up would be easier than continuing to trust God.
That is why today’s Gem is such a timely reminder:
“You will only be defeated if you give up on Me and doing what is right. Don’t give up. Amen.”
What struck me most about this Gem is what God defines as defeat. We often think defeat comes when life falls apart, when we fail, or when our circumstances don’t improve. But God paints a very different picture. Hardships don’t defeat us. Delays don’t defeat us. Even our failures don’t have the final word if we continue to turn back to Him. True defeat comes only when we stop trusting Him and choose to walk away from what is right.
David understood what it felt like to struggle with discouragement. In Psalm 13 he poured out his heart before the Lord, asking,Β “How long, O LORD? Will You forget me forever?”Β Those aren’t the words of a man who has everything figured out; they’re the honest cry of someone whose faith is being tested. Yet by the end of the psalm, David hasn’t received the answer he was hoping for. His circumstances haven’t suddenly changed. Instead, his perspective has.
He writes,Β “But I trust in Your unfailing love. I will rejoice because You have rescued me. I will sing to the LORD because He is good to me.”Β David chose to anchor himself in God’s character instead of his circumstances. He remembered who God had always been, and that remembrance gave him the strength to keep trusting even before the answer arrived.
That same kind of faith is beautifully illustrated in Romans 4 through the life of Abraham. Paul reminds us that Abraham was declared righteous because he believed God. Long before he ever held the promised son in his arms, Abraham chose to trust the One who made the promise. His faith wasn’t based on what he could see; it was based on the faithfulness of God.
Perhaps that is the lesson woven through today’s readings:
Faithfulness is not the absence of struggle. It is the decision to keep following God in the middle of it.
Most days, that faithfulness isn’t dramatic. It looks like continuing to pray when you haven’t yet received an answer. It looks like choosing integrity when compromise would be easier. It looks like opening God’s Word when your heart feels dry, forgiving someone one more time, serving quietly without recognition, or taking the next step of obedience even when you cannot see where the path leads.
The enemy would love nothing more than for you to believe your perseverance is pointless. God says the opposite. Every time you continue trusting Him and choosing what is right, you are walking in victory, even if you can’t yet see the outcome.
If you’re feeling weary today, don’t mistake weariness for defeat. As long as you continue holding on to Christ, He is still leading you forward. The battle may not be over, but neither is your story. Keep trusting. Keep obeying. Keep doing what is right.
Don’t give up. π
Action (5 Minutes with God)
Take 5 minutes to be with the God today. Ask Him:
- βLord, what do You want me to know about this personally?β
- Journal what He gives you through His Holy Spirit.
- Then ask, βWhat do You want me to do?β
- Journal what He reveals βΒ then do it!
Let today be a day of trusting Him with everything you cannot yet see.
Prayer
Dear Lord, thank You for reminding me that my circumstances do not determine whether I have been defeated. Help me to keep trusting You when I grow weary and to continue doing what is right even when I don’t immediately see the results. Strengthen my faith like Abraham’s, and help me remember Your faithfulness like David did. Keep my eyes fixed on You, and give me the courage to keep walking one step at a time. Thank You for never giving up on me. In Jesus’ name I pray, amen.

The Hardest Prayer Youβll EverΒ Pray
Praying for the hurting is one thing... Praying for those who have hurt us is something else entirely. Yet that's exactly what Jesus calls us to do. today's Gem: "Pray for your enemies. They may turn from their evil ways, and so may you." Praying for our enemies may be one of the hardest things Jesus asks us to do. But maybe that's because He isn't only interested in changing their heart... He's changing ours too.π β¨Click to read the full devotional [SENSITIVE CONTENT]
Todayβs One Year Bible Verses: 1 Chronicles 22:1β23:32, Romans 3:9β31, Psalm 12:1β8, Proverbs 19:13β14
Pray For Your Enemies
One of the beautiful ways God teaches us is through repetition.
When He keeps bringing the same truth before us, it is often because He is inviting us to move beyond simply hearing it and begin living it.
For the past week, the Lord has been gently turning our attention away from ourselves and toward those who are hurting. Day after day, He has reminded us to see the broken, show compassion, love faithfully, and stand in the gap through prayer.
Then today…
He raises the bar.
“Pray for your enemies. They may turn from their evil ways, and so may you. Amen.”
I’ll admit, my first thought was, “Ooof…”
It’s one thing to pray for people we love. It’s another to pray for people we don’t know. But praying for those who have wounded us, lied about us, rejected us, or treated us unfairlyβthat requires a work of God in our hearts.
Perhaps that’s exactly the point.
Notice what the Gem says. It doesn’t only say they may turn from their evil ways.
It also says “…and so may you.”
Sometimes we assume the greatest problem is the other person’s sin. Yet while they may be struggling with anger, pride, bitterness, or deception, we can quietly begin wrestling with resentment, unforgiveness, self-righteousness, or a desire for revenge.
God cares about both hearts.
In today’s reading, Paul reminds us of a truth that levels the ground beneath every one of us:
“For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God’s glorious standard.”
βΒ Romans 3:23 (NLT)
There are no “good people” and “bad people” standing before God. There are only sinners in need of grace.
That doesn’t excuse evil, nor does it mean we ignore wisdom or healthy boundaries. But it does remind us that the same mercy that rescued us is the mercy God desires to extend to others.
David understood this perspective throughout much of his life. Although he certainly defended himself against evil, he repeatedly refused to take vengeance into his own hands. He trusted God to judge righteously while continuing to seek the Lord.
Psalm 12 reminds us that God sees every act of injustice.
“The LORD replies, ‘I have seen violence done to the helpless, and I have heard the groans of the poor. Now I will rise up to rescue them, as they have longed for me to do.'”
βΒ Psalm 12:5 (NLT)
Because God sees perfectly, we don’t have to carry the burden of revenge.
Instead, we can pray.
Not because our enemies deserve it.
Because we didn’t deserve God’s mercy either.
Imagine what could happen if the person who hurt you genuinely encountered Jesus. Imagine if bitterness gave way to repentance, pride became humility, and hatred was transformed into love. Isn’t that exactly what happened in each of our own lives?
Prayer doesn’t always change the other person immediately.
But it almost always changes the one who is praying.
It softens our hearts, reminds us of the grace we’ve received, and helps us entrust justice to the One who judges perfectly.
Perhaps the greatest miracle begins long before our enemy changes.
Perhaps it begins when our own heart becomes more like Christ’s. π

Prayer
Father, this is not an easy prayer, but I know Your ways are higher than mine. Thank You for showing me mercy when I didn’t deserve it. Help me extend that same mercy to those who have hurt me. I pray that You would reveal Yourself to my enemies, draw them to repentance, and transform their hearts through Your love. At the same time, search my own heart. Remove any bitterness, resentment, pride, or unforgiveness that keeps me from becoming more like Jesus. Teach me to trust You with justice while responding with grace. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Who Will Pray forΒ Them?
One thing I've learned over the years is that when the Lord continues repeating the same message, I need to stop and pay close attention. For the past seven devotionals, every Gem He has given me has pointed back to the same theme: caring for those who are hurting. Seven days. One message. I don't believe that's a coincidence. Never underestimate what God can do through a few quiet moments spent interceding for someone who may never even know you prayed. One sincere prayer offered in love may become the beginning of someone's miracle. π [SENSITIVE CONTENT]
Todayβs One Year Bible Verses: 1 Chronicles 19:1β21:30, Romans 2:25β3:8, Psalm 11:1β7, Proverbs 19:10β12
They Need You
One thing I’ve learned over the years is that when the Lord continues repeating the same message, I need to stop and pay close attention.
For the past seven devotionals, every Gem He has given me has pointed back to the same theme: caring for those who are hurting. First, He reminded us that many people are tormented and need us to stand in the gap through prayer and intercession. Then He called us to help others find Him, to show compassion because we don’t know the battles people are fighting, to soften our hearts toward those who are struggling, and to remember that even the smallest acts of love can have an eternal impact. Yesterday, He reminded us that we may never fully realize the difference our love makes this side of heaven.
Now today’s Gem says,
“Allot time in your day to pray for the lost and broken. They need you the most. Amen.”
Seven days. One message.
I don’t believe that’s a coincidence.
Perhaps the Lord is calling us to do more than simply read these words. Perhaps He is asking us to slow down, let this truth settle deeply into our hearts, and begin living it intentionally. The lost, the broken, the lonely, and the weary are all around us. They don’t just need our sympathyβthey need our compassion, our prayers, our encouragement, and our willingness to point them to Jesus.
It’s easy to fill our prayer time with our own needs. We pray for our families, our finances, our health, our decisions, and the burdens weighing heavily on our own hearts. None of these prayers are wrongβour heavenly Father delights in hearing every concern we bring to Him.
Btut here are countless people around us carrying burdens they were never meant to carry alone. Some have wandered far from God. Others have never known His love at all. Many wear smiles while quietly battling addiction, loneliness, depression, fear, guilt, or hopelessness. They may never ask us to pray for them, but God knows exactly who they are.
In today’s reading, David witnessed firsthand the devastating consequences of sin after taking a census against God’s will. Thousands suffered because of one man’s pride. Yet when David recognized his sin, he didn’t simply accept the judgment. He interceded.
He cried out to God,
“I am the one who has sinned and done wrong! But these people are as innocent as sheepβwhat have they done?” β1 Chronicles 21:17 (NLT)
David stood between the people and God’s judgment, pleading for mercy. His heart had shifted from self-preservation to compassion.
That is what intercession does.
It moves us from thinking only about ourselves to carrying others before the throne of God.
Paul reminds us in Romans that every person stands in need of God’s grace. No one earns salvation by outward appearances or religious rituals. Every heart needs the mercy that only Christ can give.
Psalm 11 offers tremendous comfort in this calling:
“The LORD is in his holy Temple; the LORD still rules from heaven. He watches everyone closely, examining every person on earth.” βPsalm 11:4 (NLT)
God already sees every lost soul, every broken heart, every prodigal child, every struggling marriage, every lonely widow, every frightened teenager, every weary parent, every person trapped in addiction, and every individual silently crying out for hope.
He invites us to join Him in His work by praying for them.
We may never know whose eternity is changed because someone faithfully lifted their name before the Lord. We may never hear about the person who found hope after months of despair or the family restored because believers refused to stop praying.
But heaven knows.
Never underestimate what God can do through a few quiet moments spent interceding for someone who may never even know you prayed.
One sincere prayer offered in love may become the beginning of someone’s miracle. π
Action (5 Minutes with God)
Take 5 minutes to be with the Lord today. Ask Him:
- βLord, what do You want me to know about this personally?β
- Journal what He gives you through His Holy Spirit.
- Then ask, βWhat do You want me to do?β
- Journal what He reveals βΒ then do it!
Ask God to place specific people on your heartβthe lost, the broken, the discouraged, the prodigal, or even someone who has hurt you. Trust Him to use your prayers in ways you may never fully see.
Prayer
Dear Lord, thank You for loving the lost and broken so deeply. Forgive me for becoming so focused on my own needs that I forget those who desperately need Your mercy. Place people on my heart each day, and teach me to faithfully stand in the gap for them. Draw the lost to salvation, strengthen the weary, heal the brokenhearted, and let my prayers become part of Your work in their lives. May I never underestimate the power of praying for someone else. In Your name I pray, amen.

The thing about prophecy ministries is…
By Elizabeth Prata
I received the following question from a reader.
Q. Can you tell me if a group of speakers are false teachers? The Prophecy Watchers: Larry Ollison, Mondo Gonzales, Bill Koenig, Billy Crone, Randall Price, Ken Johnson, Tom Hughes, Lee Brainard.
A. Thank you for the inquiry! I am not familiar with the organization or the men behind it. I did a quick scan using 2 methods. I asked AI, and I read one of their recent essays- “More Blood Moon Hysteria?” from March 2026. I will give my opinion interspersed in bold, and then my conclusion at bottom from having studied this issue generally.
AI said:
PROS
Within conservative evangelicalismβspecifically dispensational premillennialismβthese men are viewed as mainstream, scholarly, and deeply committed to scripture.
[My note- If this is true, it’s good]
Literal Hermeneutics: They apply a strict, literal approach to interpreting biblical texts, treating prophecy as history written in advance.
[This is correct. Prophecy is about a third of the Bible and should taken seriously.]
Academic Credentials: Several of these speakers hold legitimate academic degrees. For example, Mondo Gonzales holds an M.A. in Near Eastern Archaeology, and Randall Price is a recognized archaeologist who has directed excavations at Qumran in Israel.
[Since many seminaries are liberal, earning advanced degrees may or may not be an indicator of solidity, but IMO having a degree in biblical Archaeology is interesting and a good basis for speaking to history in the Middle East.]
Cultural Relevance: For millions of Christians who believe in a literal End Times timeline (including the Rapture, Tribulation, and Second Coming), these teachers provide a valued framework for connecting daily headlines with ancient texts.
[Dispensationalism is under attack and looked upon as silly by MOST of the conservative quarters of the faith. I’m glad they hold to it, being the correct interpretation of end time events.]
CONS (still AI)
To secular observers, historians, and mainstream/progressive theologians, their teachings are often viewed as fringe, speculative, or sensationalist.
[This is typical of one-topic ministries but especially prevalent with end time ministries. Focusing so heavily on one topic in evangelicalism over time, seems to skew the person or people leading it. We have seen this with para-church ministries focusing on abortion, homosexuality conversions, purity ministries, even ones focusing on ‘good’ things like holiness, those tend to get Legalistic after a while. MANY, if not most, end time ministries skew speculative and sensationalist.]
Newspaper Exegesis: Critics argue that they engage in “newspaper exegesis”βthe practice of taking current events (such as advancements in AI, Middle Eastern treaties, or global health crises) and forcing them into biblical verses to create a sense of urgency.
[The Bible should create the sense of urgency, not newspaper headlines. Many Prophecy watching ministries are upside down like this.]
[Newspaper eisegesis is not proper interpretation. We in our finite minds cannot detect what God may or may not be doing. He said in Hosea 5:12 he will be as a moth to Ephraim and like rot to Judah. Moths and rot work in secret, we cannot detect it. And when we do see something big like say, a tsunami, we can say it may be from God since He is sovereign but we do not know the reason. That’s speaking into His mind and we don’t know His mind. So we always have to be cautious.]
Back 20 years ago I briefly engaged in newspaper eisegesis and I know why- I was newly converted and excited and relieved to have found the common thread to the chaos of the world. But I am equally glad that the Holy Spirit grew me out of it. I believe it is important to focus on the WHOLE Bible, to stay diligent in my own responsibilities while maintaining a heavenly perspective under God’s sovereignty, with a sense of urgency knowing the Lord could return at any time.
Sensationalism: Topics such as the search for the Ark of the Covenant, speculating on the identity of the Antichrist, or warning of a looming “one-world government” can sound highly conspiratorial or far-fetched to those outside this specific theological subculture.
[The Bible says do not engage in speculations or foolish controversies. 2 Timothy 2:23. IMO it is not a good use of time to wonder about things we cannot know and in fact if we should know them the Lord would have revealed them. Conjecture is not profitable.]
When I read the Blood Moons article I was encouraged that the the author urged the same, i.e. do not speculate, BUT he came up to the edge of speculation himself. It’s not necessary to parse every global event, to examine newspaper headlines in the Middle East, or to debate who the antichrist may be. Settling in to live and rest in God’s provision, His word, and His timing is more important than these other speculations.
I’d suggest to anyone to go away from prophecy watching type of ministries, even though these particular guys seem to be more solid than many others. I think it is best to find a solid expository preacher who handles the WHOLE counsel of God, including the last days verses, in context and properly.Β If it is in context verse-by-verse, then we can be more sure the prophetic passages are handled correctly. (2 Timothy 2:15).
One such preacher I’d recommend in handling the prophetic passages correctly is John MacArthur. His book “Because the Time is Near” is breathtaking in its presentation of the events foretold in Revelation, while creating a lasting awe at the power and person of Jesus, which is as it should be. Other examples would be the general preaching in the series of Bible books when he comes to the pertinent passages.
The problem with prophecy watcher ministries is that they often take one’s attention away from theΒ personΒ of Jesus and unduly focus onΒ events.
That is my take on it.

Donβt Give Up onΒ People
It can be discouraging to love people who seem determined to reject God. But today's Gem of Knowledge reminds us that heaven sees what we cannot. "You may not fully realize the difference your love can make while in this world, but someday you will. Don't give up on people. Just keep loving, even when they seem lost or too far gone. You just never know what could happen. Amen." Our responsibility has never been to change hearts. That belongs to God. Our calling is to faithfully love, pray, speak truth with grace, and leave the results in His hands. So don't quit - Jesus never does.π β¨Click to read the full devotional [SENSITIVE CONTENT]
Todayβs One Year Bible Verses: 1 Chronicles 16:37β18:17, Romans 2:1β24, Psalm 10:16β18, Proverbs 19:8β9
Keep Loving… You Never Know
It can be discouraging to love people who seem determined to reject God. We pray, encourage, forgive, and patiently walk beside them, yet sometimes it feels like nothing changes. The temptation is to believe our efforts have been wasted or that someone is simply too far gone.
But today’s Gem of Knowledge reminds us that heaven sees what we cannot.
“You may not fully realize the difference your love can make while in this world, but someday you will. Don’t give up on people. Just keep loving, even when they seem lost or too far gone. You just never know what could happen. Amen.”
Our responsibility has never been to change hearts. That belongs to God. Our calling is to faithfully love, pray, speak truth with grace, and leave the results in His hands.
In today’s reading, David’s victories in 1 Chronicles were not accomplished overnight. They came one battle at a time as he faithfully followed the Lord. In the same way, God often works in people’s hearts through countless small moments that may seem insignificant to us. A kind word, a patient response, a prayer whispered in secret, or a simple act of compassion may become another step God uses to draw someone closer to Himself.
Paul echoes this truth in Romans 2. He reminds us that it isΒ God’s kindnessΒ that leads people to repentanceβnot our harshness, condemnation, or impatience.
“Don’t you see how wonderfully kind, tolerant, and patient God is with you?… Can’t you see that his kindness is intended to turn you from your sin?”Β βΒ Romans 2:4 (NLT)
How many times has God’s kindness patiently pursued each one of us? How many people loved us before we finally surrendered to Christ? Most of us can look back and see countless individuals God placed in our lives long before we realized how much they were influencing us.
Psalm 10 reminds us that God sees every hurting person. He hears the cries of the oppressed and strengthens those whose hope is in Him.
“LORD, you know the hopes of the helpless. Surely you will hear their cries and comfort them.”Β βΒ Psalm 10:17 (NLT)
That means no prayer is unnoticed. No loving act is forgotten. Even if we never witness the harvest, God does.
Perhaps the person you’ve been praying for will remember your kindness years from now when they reach the end of themselves. Maybe the child who seems uninterested today will one day recall your faithful example. Perhaps the coworker who laughs at your faith will someday seek you out because they know where genuine hope can be found.
We rarely see the entire story while we’re living it.
One day, whether in this life or the next, God may reveal just how many lives were touched because you chose to keep loving instead of giving up.
So don’t quit – Jesus never does.
Keep loving.
Keep praying.
Keep forgiving.
Keep pointing people toward Jesus.
Because you never know what God is doing beneath the surface. π
Action (5 Minutes with God)
Take just 5 minutes to be with the Lord today. Ask Him:
- βLord, what do You want me to know about this personally?β
- Journal what He gives you through His Holy Spirit.
- Then ask, βWhat do You want me to do?β
- Journal what He reveals βΒ then do it!
Think of one person you’ve been tempted to give up on. Instead of withdrawing, ask God to show you one simple way to demonstrate His love to them this weekβwhether through prayer, encouragement, forgiveness, or a quiet act of kindness.
Prayer
Father, thank You for never giving up on me. Help me to love people with the same patience and kindness You have shown me. When I become discouraged, remind me that You are always working in ways I cannot see. Give me strength to keep praying, keep loving, and keep pointing others to Jesus, trusting You with the outcome. Use even the smallest acts of obedience for Your glory. In Jesus’ name, amen.

I Choose to Encourage: The Power ofΒ Words
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." β John 1:1 (NIV) Words are powerful. With a few carefully chosen words, we can inspire someone to keep going, mend a broken relationship, or offer hope in a difficult season. Yet words can also wound, discourage, and leave scars that last for years. Think about the words that have impacted your life. Perhaps someone spoke encouragement over you when you doubted yourself.

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” β John 1:1 (NIV)
Words are powerful.
With a few carefully chosen words, we can inspire someone to keep going, mend a broken relationship, or offer hope in a difficult season. Yet words can also wound, discourage, and leave scars that last for years.
Think about the words that have impacted your life. Perhaps someone spoke encouragement over you when you doubted yourself. Maybe a teacher, mentor, friend, or family member saw something in you that you could not yet see in yourself. Their words helped shape who you became.
Unfortunately, many of us can also recall hurtful words that have lingered long after they were spoken. Words have a way of embedding themselves in our hearts and influencing how we see ourselves and the world around us.
That is why John 1:1 is so profound:
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.”
John identifies Jesus as the Word. Before creation, before time itself, the Word existed. Through Him, God brought life, order, and purpose into the world.
God chose words to create.
Throughout Scripture, we see the power of God’s spoken Word. He spoke light into darkness. He spoke truth into confusion. He spoke life where there was nothing.
If words matter so much to God, they should matter to us.
As followers of Christ, we have an opportunity every day to reflect His character through the words we speak. Our conversations can bring healing instead of hurt. Our comments can build confidence instead of tearing people down. Our encouragement can help others see what God is doing in their lives.
Encouragement is more than simply saying something nice. It is intentionally speaking truth, hope, and life into someone else’s journey. Encouragement reminds people that they are seen, valued, and loved by God.
The world offers plenty of criticism, negativity, and division. Social media feeds, news headlines, and daily conversations can quickly become places where people feel attacked rather than uplifted.
What if Christians became known for encouragement?
What if our words reflected the heart of Christ?
What if we paused before speaking and asked ourselves, “Will these words build up or tear down?”
Every day presents opportunities to encourage:
- Thank someone for their faithfulness.
- Speak hope to someone who is struggling.
- Send a text of appreciation.
- Pray with a friend.
- Remind someone of God’s promises.
Small words can have a lasting impact.
Today, choose to encourage.
Let your words reflect the One who is called the Word. Let them bring light into someone’s darkness and hope into someone’s uncertainty.
Because words are never neutral. They shape how we see ourselves, others, and God. They can unite or divide, heal or harm, inspire or discourage.
May we use our words wisely and intentionally, choosing encouragement wherever we go.
Reflection Questions
- Who has encouraged you with their words recently?
- Is there someone in your life who needs encouragement today?
- How can your words better reflect the love and truth of Christ?
Sometimes the simplest choiceβchoosing words that give lifeβcan make the biggest difference.
With love and joy,
Laura
