Todayβs One Year Bible Verses: 1 Chronicles 19:1β21:30, Romans 2:25β3:8, Psalm 11:1β7, Proverbs 19:10β12
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
Take 5 minutes to be with the Lord today. Ask Him:
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.
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.

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.
