Deuteronomy 31:6 New King James Version 6 Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the LORD your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you.” GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA DEAR FRIENDS!!! Like I said this morning guys, like Joshua, I often wonder if God is really there for me. I constantly have to remind myself that God has always been there for me, is here for me now, and will continue to be here for me. I have to remind myself that in those dark moments, especially when I see that one set of footprints in the sand, God's carrying me through whatever trial, trauma, or tribulation that I'm experiencing, and He's giving me victory! I think that's why the questions from this morning's devotional were a true encouragement to my heart, and I'd like to share them with you tonight. Please read these questions carefully, and I pray that God will encourage your heart through them too. How has God recently comforted you with His constant presence? I feel very led of the Lord tonight, to share some things that He showed me from His Word, through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, And I pray that what I share with you will help you to see that no matter what dark valley, no matter what trauma, storm, or trial you are facing, that God is there beside you, and will never leave you. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn of the constant, comforting, and consistent presence of God! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with this final question from this morning's devotional, and I pray that it will encourage you to see that even when you're by yourself, that God is There for you, and will never leave you. How does His commitment to be present help when you're far from loved ones? My prayer for all of you tonight, is that whatever situation you are in right now, whatever trauma, trial, tribulation, storm, or “valley of the shadow of death” moment that you were facing, that you will know and live out the fact that God is always there for you! He promises in His Word, that He will never leave you or forsake you, but most of all, He WILL fight for you, grant you the peace, justice, healing, and serenity that you are seeking, from whatever it is you are experiencing, and that you can be assured that He will never leave you. Remember verses such as the one above, Isaiah 41:10, 43:1-4, as well as Matthew 28:20, and no, that no matter what you go through, no matter how isolated you were made to feel, or when others abandon you, remember this truth. Cling to God's presence always, and always remember that with Jesus as your savior, you truly are never alone!” UNTIL WEDNESDAY EVERYONE: HAVE A PEACEFUL, SWEET, AND TRANQUIL EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

Psalm 23:4 New King James Version 4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA GANG!!! I know I say this a lot guys, but when I do say this it's something I mean. I needed this morning scripture today. I needed the words of Psalm 23, because I feel like I'm going through shadows and valleys in my life right now. I needed the questions from this morning's devotional, because I'm going through these valleys, and I could really use your prayers. I'd like to share these questions from this morning's devotional with all of you tonight, because I'm sure there's somebody out there going through their own valleys, and i pray that these questions will encourage you. Please read these questions carefully, and I pray that God will lift your heart up through them. What valley have you been walking through? I'd like to share some things that God showed me through this morning scripture, as well as many other verses of scripture, through this vlog I’d like to share with all of you tonight, and i pray that what I share with you will encourage you to know that no matter what dark valley, no matter what shadow of hardship, fear, or trauma you are going through, that He is walking there beside you, giving you His strength and light to see you through it. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn more about the one who walks through the valleys and the shadows with all of us! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post for tonight, I want to leave you with this last question from this morning's devotional, and I pray that it encourages to see that God walks with you through the darkest of shadows. Which of God’s promises provide light for your journey? As I close this post tonight, I want to reach out to those who are walking through the “valley of the shadow of death” right now, and let you know that God walks beside you. That whatever trauma, tragedy, or toxic situation that you are in right now, God walks beside you, will never let leave you, or let you go, even in the darkest of moments! Don't be afraid to walk away from that toxic situation/person, and don't be afraid to confide in somebody that you trust for help. Remember that when life gets too overwhelming, you have hope as a redeemed child of God, so choose to hope in Him! He is our source of light even when we travel through the darkest of shadows, but most of all, He's the heavenly father who listens to us, and will never let us down. SO, UNTIL TUESDAY HAVE A VERY BLESSED EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

John 8:32 New King James Version 32 “And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA DEAR ONES!!! You know there is a very interesting saying that no one likes the truth, and I have seen the reality of this saying very vividly over the last couple of years. In particular, ever since we have who we have in the White House right now, we have been seeing a very vivid, insistent version of the world's truth, that claims to be better than the real truth that God offers. We see people in their stubborn pride cling to their so-called truth, over God's Word, and look at where it's getting them. I think that's why the questions from this morning devotional really challenged my heart and I'd like to share them with you tonight. Please read these questions very carefully, and I pray that God will speak to your heart through them too. How do your life choices line up with the claims of Jesus? Interesting question is it not? I wonder how my life choices line up with God's Word. Am I making sure that my choices are in line with God's Word, or with me? Am I truly making sure that my choices are based genuinely on God's word, or am I basing what I do, my choices, on what someone else says God's word says? Tonight, my friends, I'd like to share some things that God showed me from this passage of scripture, through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you encourage you to see how important it is to surrender your pride, you're everything to the one who will truly set you free. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn just how to do this! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with this final question from this morning's devotional, and I pray that it will really get you to thinking about this issue. What's keeping you from surrendering to Him? Is there something in your life right now, that's keeping you from surrendering your heart to God? Are you like Zedekiah, who refuses to hear the truth, but wants to be told only what you want to hear? Don't let pride, or stubbornness get in the way of surrendering to God. Remember, that He is the way, the truth, and the life, and His truth will set us free! UNTIL MONDAY, MY FRIENDS: HAVE A VERY BLESSED AND RESTFUL EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

Colossians 3:12-13 New King James Version 12 Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering; 13 bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do. GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA EVERYONE!!! You know guys, I think we can all agree that kindness, love, compassion, mercy, and forgiveness, or some extremely important qualities that do matter. The problem is, in the eyes of the world they don't, and in many instances we as Christians don't put them as a high priority either. I think that's why these questions from this morning's devotional are so challenging, as well as convicting, and I’d like to share them with you tonight. Please read these questions very carefully, and I pray that God will challenge your heart through them too. Why do you think we often fail to see the tangible impact of “goodwill”? How can you grow in prioritizing kindness? Tonight, my friends, I'd like to share some things that God showed me from His Word this morning, through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you challenges you to want to cultivate, build up and prioritize kindness in your own life. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn just what this means! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I really pray that you think about these questions, and ask yourself especially how you can prioritize kindness in your own life. I pray that you think about the ways in which you can genuinely show kindness, love, mercy, and yes forgiveness to others, not just within the body of Christ, but also to this lost and dying world. That you genuinely show kindness, show patience when it's not being reciprocated right away, but allow that kindness, love, mercy, compassion and so much more, to take root in the fertile soil of that person's heart, so that they truly will see Christ in you. I think we need that right now very badly with everything going on not just in our world today but also within the body of Christ, and I pray that we allow the Holy Spirit to draw us together as believers in Christ so that we can help each other grow and mature as we genuinely learn from one another. Most of all, ask God every day to teach you what really matters. The love that God poured out on us through His son Jesus! UNTIL SUNDAY DEAR ONES: HAVE A VERY SWEET EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!! https://youtu.be/Ps1IoQYAiKM?si=5t7sXHQTABSKO_ok

Romans 3:22 New King James Version 22 even the righteousness of God, through faith in Jesus Christ, to all [a]and on all who believe. For there is no difference; SO WHY RESTRICT IT??? GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA EVERYBODY!!! We live in a world where people want to place restrictions on each other. We live in a world where especially amongst us Christians we want to restrict, prevent, and outright not even share the gospel with someone because we don't like what they look like, or their lifestyle, and that's absolutely wrong. We forget about the moment that you came to save us, and when we came to know Christ as savior, and we need a reminder of that invitation. I think that's why the questions from this morning's devotional were really tugging at my heart, challenging me in my own preconceived notions, and I'd like to share them with you tonight. Please read these questions very carefully, and I pray that God will challenge you through them too. What was your situation when you accepted God’s gift of salvation? Tonight, my friends, I'd like to share some things that God showed me from his word not just this morning, but the weather passages of scripture, through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you will burden you to want to share the gospel, to want to share the invitation of the good news of Jesus Christ with others no matter who they are, where think they are. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn for yourself how to share the invitation that is for all! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with this final question from this morning's devotional, and I pray that it will challenge and motivate you to be God's instrument of salvation, to be His messenger of the good news to that someone who needs it most. Who do you know whose heart Jesus is calling? I pray tonight, that if you know somebody who doesn't know Christ, but you're resisting sharing the gospel with them because of some preconceived notion that you have, that you get off your spiritual high horse, and share the gospel with them! Repent of the attitude that you are having, and humbly go to that person, share the good news of Jesus Christ with them and you let God take it from there. Don't be like Jonah, and resist sharing the gospel with someone because you don't like the way they look, act, dress, etc. This isn't about you, it's about reaching the lost, so be willing to extend and share that invitation! UNTIL SATURDAY DEAR ONES: HAVE A BLESSED, PEACEFUL, AND SWEET EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!! https://www.ccphilly.org/do-you-know-him/

Just wanted to share some of my thoughts on the documentary that recently came out entitled “Let Us Prey" And I pray that what I share on this, will challenge, convict, and encourage people to get out of the IFB if they're in it. The Independent Fundamental Baptist Church from where I stand, is a very dangerous cult, because they do not practice and live out the Bible, but they live out a twisted version of Scripture. This is a call to everyone to please examine everything that you are being taught in an IFB church very carefully against the word of God, and if you see it going against God's word, RUN! https://www.preacherboyspodcast.com/abuser-database

Psalm 31:14 New King James Version 14 But as for me, I trust in You, O LORD; I say, “You are my God.” GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA MY DEAR ONES!!! How is everyone doing on this very beautiful evening? I truly appreciated this morning scripture, because I needed to be reminded of how important it is to make sure that I'm placing my trust in God and not in people or things. To realize as Warren Wiersbe stated so very well, “God’s people don’t boast in their human resources but in the God who alone can save them in every situation. Only this kind of faith will honor the strong name of the Lord.” I think that's why I so truly appreciated the questions from this morning's personal, and I'd like to share them with you tonight. Please read these questions very carefully, and I pray that God will speak to your heart through them. In your personal battles, where or in what do you place your trust? I'd like to share some things that God has put on my heart concerning this passage of scripture, through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you encourages and challenges you to make certain that you’re relying on God and not in things and people. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends, and learn how to place your trust in God and God alone for every situation that you face! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with this final question from this morning's devotional, and I pray that it will encourage you to trust God for any and every situation, and to know the true peace and hope that He alone offers. How might trusting in God’s name change the way you cope with these challenges? I pray that you see that when you choose to trust God, that you will know that when you are walking through this life, God is truly there by your side, and is never going to let you down. It’s as Karen Huang states so very well, “Whether He gives us a resolution or the grace to endure, we can trust that He’ll be to us all that He says He is. We don’t have to be overwhelmed by our troubles, but we can face them with His hope and peace.” UNTIL FRIDAY: HAVE A VERY RESTFUL AND BLESSED EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

Psalm 29:3 New King James Version 3 The voice of the LORD is over the waters; The God of glory thunders; The LORD is over many waters. GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA DEAR ONES!!! I'm just wondering guys, have you ever had a chance to really see nature in action? Have you taking the time to watch the rainfall, thunderstorm, or snow falling? I know that sounds really weird, but as I was reading this morning scripture, I was thinking about the power and majesty of God within nature and how God is in control of it all. I was especially challenged as well as encouraged by the questions from this morning's devotional, because they speak volumes to the sovereignty, majesty, but also the fact that God is the God of the impossible. That no matter what we go through, God is bigger than it all, and is there for us to give us victory. Please read these questions very carefully, and I pray that God will challenge and encourage you through them. How does God’s great power comfort you? Which parts of nature inspire you to stand in awe of Him? I'd like to share some things that God showed me from this passage of scripture this morning, through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you encourages you to see the hope and victory that you have in Christ Jesus over any and all circumstances that you face. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends, and learn about the God of the impossible, who's bigger than any problem that you could ever have! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post tonight I pray that you will see how God can make the ureal real, and the impossible possible. I pray that with whatever problem you were experiencing, whatever trauma you may be going through, whatever overwhelming situation that you are facing right now, that you remember that God is bigger than any problem, trauma, or overwhelming situation that you could have, because nothing is impossible for Him! Remember as Jennifer Benson Schuldt stated so very well, “If the world's wonders represent just a fragment of God's capabilities, it's clear that his power exceeds our ability to understand it. In times of brokenness, this gives us hope. God can do anything, including what he did for job as he sustained him during suffering.” So if God can sustain Job through the horrific he went through, God can bring you through those same things, because nothing is impossible with God! UNTIL THURSDAY MY FRIENDS: HAVE A RESTFUL, SWEET, AND TRANQUIL EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

2 Peter 1:5-7 New King James Version 5 But also for this very reason, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue, to virtue knowledge, 6 to knowledge self-control, to self-control [a]perseverance, to perseverance godliness, 7 to godliness brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness love. GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA PEOPLE!!! I've been really challenged not just by the questions from this morning's devotional but also by what I read out of this morning scripture, and that's why I posted this verse above. I wanna try to show these attributes every day in my life, and I pray that you will as well. Please read these questions very carefully, and I pray that God will speak to your heart through them too. When have you experienced the healing power of compassion? How can you cultivate a community of healing? Tonight, my friends, I feel very led of the Lord to share some things that are really on my heart concerning what it means to cultivate the skill of compassion, through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I say, that what I share with you will resonate in your hearts, and give you that same desire to show compassion to others too. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends, and learn how to cultivate and create the skill of compassion! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I pray that you will ask God to show you ways in which you can cultivate a community of healing for everyone around you. That you will ask God every day how you can show compassion, love, and mercy to everyone around you, no matter their lifestyle, skin color, ethnicity, or any other aspect about them. Remember as Monica LaRose stated so very well, that we live “In a broken world, none of us escape unwounded—hurt and scars are deeply embedded in each of us. But deeper still is the love we find in Christ; love tender enough to draw out those thorns with the balm of compassion, willing to embrace both friend and enemy (v. 14) to find healing together.” Let's seek out ways to show compassion, love, and mercy to those who have been wounded by so-called Christians, and to everyone that we encounter. UNTIL WEDNESDAY: HAVE A TRANQUIL AND SWEET EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

Colossians 3:23-24 New King James Version 23 And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men, 24 knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for[a] you serve the Lord Christ. GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA EVERYONE!!! I find it really interesting that God chose these individuals, this entire tribe make that to be specifically in service for him, but I find it really interesting that He gives the Gershonites, Kohathites, and Merarites these specific tasks to serve not just Aaron and the priestly line, but most of all Him. I find it especially interesting that the Bible mentions all of this, because it seems like a yawn fest, but yet God finds this important. I think that's why the questions from this morning's devotional were so challenging to my heart, and I'd like to share these questions with you all tonight. Please read these questions carefully and i pray that god will speak to you through them. How might knowing that you’re ultimately serving God change the way you work? How can you do it with pride and excellence for His sake? Tonight, my friends, I'd like to share some things that God showed me from his word through this blog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you challenges you to see that whatever you do at work, home, or in church, is not insignificant to God. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends, and learn what it means to heartily, willingly, cheerfully, and gladly do all for the glory of God! 😊 So, as I close this post for tonight, I pray that you ask God to enable you through His Holy Spirit to honor Him in everything that you say and do. To put God first in everything, even in the everyday things of life, such as, doing the laundry, brushing your teeth, making the bed, cooking, or any activities that you think have little spiritual value. Choose to put forth your best effort in doing them, because you're doing them for God and that you're doing them for Him with the right attitude. Remember, my friends, that even though the world out there doesn't see what we do for God, especially other Christians out there, God sees, and He honors what we do for Him. Above all everyone, don't seek your own glory, but seek God’s, and allow Him to use you, even in the everyday and mundane! UNTIL TUESDAY MY FRIENDS: HAVE A PEACEFUL, SWEET, AND BLESSED EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

2 Corinthians 9:7 New King James Version 7 So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of [a]necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver. GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA EVERYBODY!!! I find myself truly amazed at the humble character of King David, and how just the opposite he was from Saul. In particular, I see how throughout David's life, everything he had, he gave God credit for. He truly gave God credit especially for what we read in this morning scripture, when it came to the willingness, the open heart and generosity of the people of Israel toward building the temple. The one thing that really gets me in this, is that David is acknowledging that everything that they were able to do is because of God's goodness and generosity to them, and he's saying here we are we just want to give back. I think that's why I really love the questions from this morning's devotional, because they got me to thinking of all the ways that god has been involved in not just my life but in Ricky’s life too, and how grateful I am for everything he's done for both of us. I invite you to read these questions very carefully, and I pray that God will challenge your heart to see what it means to have humble generosity. How has God been involved in your life? How can you give in response? I'd like to share some things that God has shown me not just from His Word this morning, but also throughout the years from His Word, through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you Gives you a heart filled with gratitude for what God has done for you, but also will cause you to want to respond to God's love and care in your life, with a generous heart to others who need it. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends, and learn for yourself what it means to be a cheerful, grateful, and willing giver! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I challenge you to ask God to show you those out there, who are in need, and see what you can do to reach out to them. Take time to find out just exactly what they need, and find out ways that you can help supply it. Remember guys, you don't need money to be a cheerful giver, but when you give of your time, talents, and abilities, God will more than honor it. Most of all, I challenge you all today and every day to find different ways in which you can give God your very best, and do so with a cheerful, grateful, and willing heart. UNTIL MONDAY: HAVE A SUPERBLY SWEET EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

2 Corinthians 5:7 New King James Version 7 For we walk by faith, not by sight. GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA GANG!!! I know this may sound strange to all of you guys, but Hebrews 11 is what I’d like to refer to as the “faith hall of fame” chapter. I say this, because it gives some very awesome examples of people who chose to have faith in God, and trust Him to not only provide for them, but to give them wisdom and courage to face the daunting everything that they had to. It's a reminder to me, through these godly men and women, that as Katara Patton, this morning's devotional writer states so very well, “What God has done before, He can do again.” I think that's why the questions from this morning's devotional, or so encouraging, as well as really touching my heart right now. They are getting me to think of all the times that God has been there for me, and I'd like to share them with you tonight. Please read these questions very carefully, and I pray that God will encourage your heart through them as well. What are you trusting God to do even though you may not see it clearly right now? How has He delivered you or your family in the past? I feel very incredibly burdened of the Lord to share some things that God has shown me from his word this morning, but also some wonderful experiences that God has brought me through, through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you will encourage you to see that you can place your confidence and assurance in God, even when you can't see or understand what God is doing. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends, and learn for yourself what it means to not just see, but most of all walk by faith! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I pray that you will think about these questions, and ask God to help you to not only remember all the ways in which He's delivered you or your family in the past, but thank Him for it. Don't be afraid to recall all those moments where you thought that everything was lost, that you had nothing to eat, or we're going to be homeless, but God intervened, and praise God for all of it! I pray for those who are struggling financially, especially during this holiday season, that you will set your eyes on the one who is the great provider, and will meet every last one of your needs. Remember my friends, what God has done before He will do again! UNTIL SUNDAY DEAR FRIENDS: HAVE A VERY SWEET AND BLESSED EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

2 Samuel 22:4 New King James Version 4 I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised; So shall I be saved from my enemies. GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA DEAR ONES!!! Tell me something everyone. In what ways do you share your love for God with him and with others? It doesn't have to be anything fancy, but I believe as long as it's from the heart, and you were doing it to genuinely serve God, I believe that's how you can share your love for God not just with Him, but everyone around you. Tonight, my friends, I feel led of the Lord to share some things that I've learned from His Word on what it means to worship Him, (still learning), through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you, will get you to really think about how you worship God, and see that God is truly worthy of all praise. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends, and see just exactly what I mean! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with this final question from this morning's devotional, and I pray that it will challenge, motivate, and encourage you to have a true Worshipful relationship with God. What might be standing in the way of your worship? Look at the many other songs that David wrote to show genuine praise to God, and know that true worship in song, doesn't have to come from a red, blue, or green hymnal. I believe some of the best songs of worship to God, have come as of the last couple of decades, especially when contemporary Christian music showed up, because to me they show true praise and worship to God. These are songs that show God to be the one that is worthy of all praise, and we need to be willing to open our hearts, allow God to put a new song in our mouth, and ask Him to help us make sure that our worship expresses His true goodness and greatness. UNTIL SATURDAY: HAVE AN ABUNDANTLY SWEET EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

Proverbs 18:24 New King James Version 24 A man who has friends [a]must himself be friendly, But there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother. GOOD EVENIING IN YESHUA GUYS!!! HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!!! I pray that you had a really good Thanksgiving. That you got to pig out on the turkey, and pie, but most of all, I pray that you realize what today is about. A time to show God gratitude and thanks not just today but every day for all the things that He has given us, but also for the opportunity to be a blessing to those who truly need that blessing the most. I'd like to ask these questions from this morning's devotional, because I think there are important. I think they're important, because when we remember all the goodness, mercy, compassion, and love, all the blessings that God has given us, we're going to want to be blessings to others too. Please read these questions very carefully and I pray that God will challenge and encourage your heart through them. When has an unexpected invitation encouraged you? What blessings did you experience? Tonight, my friends, I'd like to share some things that God showed me from His Word, through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you challenges, encourages, and motivates you to want to be a blessing to others, especially the stranger, and those that can't repay you back. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends, and learn how to be a true, compassionate, and constant blessing to all those around you! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to challenge you to think about these questions. I challenge you especially to think about all the ways in which unexpected opportunities, invitations, and precious moments that God has used in your life to encourage you, and to not only be grateful for these things, but don’t be afraid to be a blessing to others. Go out there to the prostitutes, strippers, drug addicts, Alcoholics, homeless, the LGBTQ community, and be a Christ like blessing to them. Don't be afraid to reach out to these people, because they're the ones that need to hear the good news of Jesus Christ the most, and by showing them compassion, friendship, and yes God's love, they may very well come to know Christ. Ask God today to do as the hymn says, “make me a blessing to someone today,” and go be a blessing to others! UNTIL FRIDAY MY DEAR FRIENDS: HAVE A TRANQUIL, BLESSED, AND RESTFUL EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

Ephesians 5:15-16 New King James Version 15 See then that you walk [a]circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, 16 redeeming the time, because the days are evil. GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA EVERYBODY!!! I truly found this morning scripture very challenging, as well as motivating, because I will admit it, I struggle with my walk with the Lord sometimes. I struggle especially with sharing my faith, because sometimes I feel I either don't have the right words, scared, or I'm apathetic and I shouldn't be. I think that's why the questions from this morning's devotional are so challenging to my heart, and I’d like to share them with you tonight. Please read these questions very carefully, and I pray that God will speak to your heart through them too. How can you focus on Christ today, rather than the world’s evil? How can you shine His light today in your neighborhood? Tonight, my friends, I'd like to share some things that God showed me from His Word, through this vlog I’d like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you, challenges, and motivates you to want to shine your light brightly for Christ. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends, and learn how to walk and shine for Jesus! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post for tonight, I really want you to think about these questions from this morning's devotional, and ask god to show you ways in which you can be His light in this Dark World. Maybe you have someone in your neighborhood, that's spending Thanksgiving by themselves, because they've got no family, and it seems like nobody cares about them. Regardless of what lifestyle they practice, skin color, or anything else about them, show the love of Jesus to them, reach out to them, and invite them for dinner tomorrow! This is your opportunity my friends, to be the living example of Christ Jesus, that you're supposed to be, and I pray that you'll do it. Remember, as the precious song “Pass It On” states, “It only takes a spark to get a fire going, and soon all those around can warm up to its glowing. That's how it is with God's love, once you've experienced it, you spread his love to everyone, you want to pass it on.” JUST WALK AND SHNE!!! UNTIL THURSDAY MY FRIENDS: HAVE A VERY RESTFUL AND SWEET EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!! https://youtu.be/AkHc9dM2VlY?si=xkliX7ncdOgpm22W

Jeremiah 31:3 New King James Version 3 The LORD has appeared [a]of old to me, saying: “Yes, I have loved you with an everlasting love; Therefore with lovingkindness I have drawn you. GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA DEAR ONES!!! I don't know how else to say this guys, but I really needed this morning scripture. I needed a reminder of how much I'm honored, valued, loved by, and precious to God. I needed to be reminded that I'm not worthless. That I have value and use to God. That I'm never a burden to God, and that He truly cares about me. I think that's why the questions from this morning's devotional are really sticking to my heart right now. Why they are not only challenging me but encouraging me to remember that I have a heavenly father that cares about me, and I pray that as I share these questions with you, that you will see the same thing period please read these questions very carefully, and I pray that God will speak to your heart through them. What’s your experience of relating to God as a Father? How can you remind yourself that you’re precious to Him? Tonight, my friends, I'd like to share some things that God showed me from His Word, not just from this morning's passage of scripture, but from other precious verses of scripture, that show proof beyond anything, that God truly unconditionally loves, values, and considers us his precious children. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends, and learn for yourself that you are precious to honored, loved, and valued by God! So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I pray that you will allow God to show you, that you are not useless, worthless, or any other negative statement that someone makes about you. That you are truly loved by an almighty God, and that love never stops. That God is your Heavenly Father, who truly loves you, and will never abandon you. I especially pray for those who have had a negative image of what God is supposed to be to them, because they had a father who was not a positive/godly influence on them. I pray that they will see God as the heavenly father who loves them passionately, endlessly, unconditionally, and as Someone who is more than proud to call you, His child! that you have a heavenly father, that will never let you down. Remember that God truly cares about you and what you go through, and wants you to know, that you are His precious, valued child, and nothing will ever change that. UNTIL WEDNESDAY: HAVE A BLESSED AND TRANQUIL EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

Proverbs 15:13 New King James Version 13 A merry heart makes a cheerful [a]countenance, But by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken. GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA EVERYONE!!! Guys, there's something very precious, and very meaningful to me about this morning's passage of scripture, because Solomon is trying to make a point here. That point is that joy, laughter, and merriment are very important. That just a smile, or a kind word, can truly bring joy to someone, and that we've been given that opportunity to share that joy. I was really blessed as well as encouraged by the questions from this morning's devotional, because I have had very precious moments in my life where God has shown his joy to me through others, and i'd like to share these questions with you today.

I pray that you will see how important laughter is, that God created this precious gift, and that you will never take it for granted. I also pray that you will choose to not hide or cover up the joy that God has given you, but that you will share it with others. We are living in a world right now my friends, that needs to see the joy of Jesus, and they need to see it in us! I pray that we are like Colleen, who wants to spread joy to others lives, and lift up crushed spirits. It’s as a very well-known comedian named Carlos Mencia stated, “If you're not laughing, you're not living baby!” Most of all my friends, I pray that you will never be afraid to take the time to find the humor in life, and don't be afraid to laugh! UNTIL TUESDAY: HAVE A BLISSFULLY BLESSED EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

Hebrews 4:15 New King James Version 15 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. GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA MY FRIENDS!!! Where are you experiencing weakness today? I don't know about any of you guys, but I have days where I really need God's strength to get through not just that day, but whatever I am experiencing. If I can be really honest right now, I need God’s strength, and the strength of my brothers and sisters in Christ right now, because I'm facing a lot of physical issues, as well as unexpected medical bills from this hospital stay, and I need God's strength to get me through it. I needed this passage of scripture, to help encourage me to realize that I can't do things in my own strength, but that in God's strength I do find my own. Tonight, my friends, I'd like to share some things that God has shown me from His Word, especially through this morning's passage of scripture, through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you encourages you to see that you can find God's strength in the midst of whatever you were facing today, and any day.

How can you—in that exact weakness—gather God’s strength for your journey? I pray tonight, my friends, that whatever you may be facing in life, ask God to help you remember that even in the midst of the thorns that we experience in this life God is bringing us the roses from them. That like a bird gathering its strength for the journey ahead, God is giving us the strength that we need to be able to face each and every day, and all the unexpected things that occur within it. Remember, my friends, that we can gather our strength in God, because whatever we are facing, when we face it in His strength, we truly do find our own!

Galatians 6:1 New King James Version 6 Brethren, if a man is [a]overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted. Ephesians 4:15 New King James Version 15 but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head—Christ— GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA GANG!!! GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA GANG!!! Boy, did Ricky and I ever have an amazing day today! For the first time in about five months, I got my haircut, which I badly needed, and I feel so much better. Then, we went to Shoprite again to get our Turkey, and we found a very nice plump 11-pound turkey for the 2 of us. I also got an extra thing of stuffing, because somebody who will be nameless, keeps eating the stuffing that he already made🤣. I also got some dinner for tonight which was fried chicken which ohh my word was so good! Right now, we're recovering from the chicken coma, just praising God for today, and I hope that your day went well too. Answer me this my friends: Why is it vital for us to confront others in love? How do you receive hard but helpful words? These questions really got to me guys, and I not only want to share them with you tonight, but I'd like to share some things that God showed me from His Word this morning, through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that it will help you learn how to confront, and give those hard words with grace and love, but also to be able to accept them when they're given to you. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends, and learn what it means to lovingly, humbly, and compassionately, confront sin! 😊 My prayer for all of you, as I close this post for tonight, is that you ask God every day to help you receive the GENUINE correction that He offers you, through fellow believers, in humility and gratitude. I pray that when you receive the hard words that someone offers you, that they are given with grace and love, and that you will accept those true words with grace. I also pray that both you and other fellow believers offer this correction according to Galatians 6:1-2, as well as Matthew 18:15-18, in a spirit of love, grace, gentleness, and humility, but above all, making sure that you have all the facts before you confront someone. Make sure that you examine your motives in how you confront them, so that you're not going on an “sin hunt” and that you are not trying to gaslight, pound, or manipulate them into your version of repentance. Again, I urge you before you go to someone to confront them, examine your heart, and make sure you have all the facts! That's not only how you can offer “hard words”, but offer them with love, compassion, humility, and grace. UNTIL SUNDAY MY DEAR ONES: HAVE A BLESSED AND SWEET EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

Ephesians 1:4-6 New King James Version 4 just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, 5 having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, 6 to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He [a]made us accepted in the Beloved. AS GOD’S REDEEMED CHILD!!! GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA EVERYONE!!! Every time I read this passage of scripture my friends, I learned something precious and new from it. As such, I'm really grateful for the time I get to spend in God's word, and today was no different. One thing that really got me about this passage, and with this morning's devotional, is how the Christian life, is like a journey. It's an adventure like no other, and we need to make the most of it. How it is the greatest adventure of all time, and when we choose to seek Christ Jesus comment not just now, but every day for our real life, that adventure will be an awesome one. I think that's why the questions from this morning's devotional have really been getting me to think, and challenging me right now, so I’d like to share them with you tonight. Please read these questions very carefully, and I pray that God will challenge your heart through them too. How would you describe the life of knowing and walking with Jesus? Who might God want you to share this with? Tonight, my friends, I'd like to share some things that God showed me from his word, through this flag I’d like to share with all of you tonight, and i pray that what I share with you, will help you to see that being a follower of Jesus is a great adventure.

While that adventure is going to have twists and turns, bumps, bruises, trauma, and lots of scary moments, there will be lots of joyous moments too. That there will be mountain top experiences like no other, that will over shadow the valleys, but that in all of it, God will use everything that you experience for his honor and glory, to help you see the great adventure that you are getting to experience. I also pray that you will see that in this adventure, you ARE God’s redeemed child, and that this makes you REDEEMED ROYALTY! Don’t be afraid to share this precious truth with this lost and dying world, so they too can know this great adventure!

Psalm 126:3 New King James Version 3 The LORD has done great things for us, And we are glad. GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA MY DEAR FRIENDS!!! I saw this question in this morning's devotional by Arthur Jackson, and I really wanted to ask this question, because I think it's important. “Have there been times in your life when God has particularly made Himself known to you? This got me to remembering all the ways in which God has been there for me, done so many great things for me, and the best part is He still continues to do these great things for me. As such, I can't help but fall on my knees and just praise Him for it! I think that's why when I saw these questions from this morning's devotional, I really wanted to share these questions with you tonight, and I pray that they not only encourage you to remember what God has done for you, but that you want to share God's goodness with others. Please read these questions very carefully, and allow God to speak to you through them. How can you more readily share your experiences of God’s goodness with others? How have you been inspired to trust Him more when you’ve heard others share His awesome deeds? I'd like to share some things that God showed me from His Word this morning, through this vlog I’d like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you, opens your eyes to see all of the good things, that God has done for you, and that you will want to share what He’s done for you, with everyone around you. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends, and learn how to tell the world what God has done for you! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to challenge you to remember all the times in which that God has showed/made Himself to you. To remember the moments in which God has been there for you, providing miraculous rescue, preservation, and provision, and so much more, and not be afraid to share all of what God has done, is doing, and will continue to do in your life with others! As Arthur Jackson states so very well, “While there are God-experiences that we have in common with other believers in Jesus, there are also things unique to our individual journeys.” These things are truly well worth sharing guys, especially to others who need to hear how God has worked in our lives, and we need to not be afraid to share them. Who knows the impact, encouragement, and help that may bring to the person who hears it? UNTIL FRIDAY: HAVE A RESTFUL, SWEET, AND TERRIFIC EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

Psalm 37:4 New King James Version 4 Delight yourself also in the LORD, And He shall give you the desires of your heart. GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA DEAR ONES!!! You know guys, this morning scripture really got me, because I've been distracted, and more focused on activity for activity sake, versus really spending time with God. I battle every day the way I was brought up in the IFB, about how many times a week I'm in church, and all the traditions of men that I was taught, that I didn't know what it really meant to serve God. I find myself sometimes like Martha, focused on things, and trying to prove my spirituality through how many things I'm doing in the church/for God, when none of that matters. I think that's why the questions from this morning's devotional, are really challenging my heart, and I’d like to share them with you tonight. Please read these questions very carefully, and I pray that God will challenge you through them. What distractions keep you from receiving from Jesus? I'd like to share some things that I learned from this passage out of God's Word, through this vlog I’d like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you will get your attention, so that you will see the importance of focusing on Jesus and not superficial activities. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends, and learn how to focus on Jesus, and not worry about the superficial around you. 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with this final question from this morning's devotional, and I pray that it will help you see the importance of learning to focus on Jesus, and just being willing to take a break and sit at His feet. How can you sit at His feet today? I think it starts with just taking the time to drown out the distractions, blot out the interruptions, and put a stop to all interference what's going on in your life. Ask God to help you do that. Ask God to help you get rid of the distractions, interruptions, and interference that Satan is putting in your life, under the guise of spiritual service to Him, and just simply choose to sit at His feet and listen to that still small voice. Remember, my friends, that it's not about how much you're doing for Him, but WHAT you're doing for Him.” SO, UNTIL THURSDAY EVERYONE: HAVE A VERY SWEET EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

Hebrews 8:12 New King James Version 12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins [a]and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.” GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA EVERYBODY!!! You know guys, I've done some really dumb things, and certain people have tried to hold those dumb things against me, but because I know Christ is my savior, and I have confessed those things before the Lord and repented of them, I can tell those people that bring that up in my face, that God's forgiven me of it, he doesn't remember it, and tell them to back off. I think that's why I'm really grateful for the questions from this morning's devotional today, because they're a reminder of the fact that God has forgiven me, has forgotten my sins, and that I shouldn't be afraid to live in that precious gift. I'd like to share these questions from this morning's devotional with all of you right now, and I pray that you will see that God offers the same gift to you. Please read these questions very carefully, and I pray that God will touch and encourage your heart through them. How should God's forgiveness affect how you see your failures? I'd like to share some things that I have learned not just from this morning's passage of scripture, but through other passages of scripture, through this blog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that it will help you see that If Christ has forgiven you of your sins, you don't need to cling to past shame. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn for yourself that Christ has forgiven and forgotten your sins, and will NEVER remember them! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with this final question from this morning's devotional, and I pray that it will encourage you to show God's grace to those who need it the most. How can you show others grace? Tonight, I’d like to reach out to every redeemed child of God out there that is struggling with ANY wounds of the past, any sins that have been confessed and repented of, to know that you ARE forgiven, and that God has FORGOTTEN them!! Please don't allow Satan, especially through others, to torture you needlessly, unbiblically, and senselessly, with any reminders of already confessed sin, but let them know that you are a redeemed child of God, and to back off! Don't be afraid to REJOICE and KNOW that you are a REDEEMED child of God and to live like it!! UNTIL WEDNESDAY MY FRIENDS: HAVE A TRULY TRANQUIL EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

Psalm 34:15 New King James Version 15 The eyes of the LORD are on the righteous, And His ears are open to their cry. GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA DEAR ONES!!! You know guys, I truly love king Hezekiah. He chose to come before God with everything he was facing, even a life-threatening illness, knowing that God would hear and answer his prayers. I think that's why I'm especially encouraged by the questions from this morning’s devotional, and I'd like to share them with all of you tonight. Please read these questions carefully, and I pray that God will encourage and challenge your heart through them too. What tops your list of concerns? Tonight, my friends, I'd like to share some things that God is continuing to show me from His Word on this issue, through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you, will encourage, and motivate you to have the faith of Hezekiah in the midst of whatever concern, care, or trauma that you were facing right now. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends, and learn the fact that God not only hears your prayers, but that He listens to and will answer them! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with this final question from this morning's devotional, and I pray that you will not be afraid to go to the Lord and cast your cares on Him for whatever you are facing. How can you give them to God, asking for His guidance and help? My prayer for all of you tonight, is that whatever stressful situation, fear, concern, or care you are dealing with right now, that you will lay it at the feet of the savior. Trust in the one that you can cast all your cares on, because God not only listens to your prayers, but he also answers. He may not answer our prayers immediately, or with things like a card on a windowsill, but god assures us that when we are facing difficult situations, we don't face them alone. God not only sees us, but he’s also with us, listening to and answering our prayers always. UNTIL TUESDAY MY FRIENDS: HAVE AN ABUNDANTLY BLESSED AND SWEET EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!! P.S. If anyone is interested in helping me with my medical bills from what happened to me in September, my PayPal is @WendySaddler, or PayPal.Me/WendySaddler, or my Cash App is $WendySaddler

Mark 5:27-28 New King James Version 27 When she heard about Jesus, she came behind Him in the crowd and touched His garment. 28 For she said, “If only I may touch His clothes, I shall be made well.” 34 And He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace, and be healed of your affliction.” GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA EVERYONE!!! I really truly love this passage of scripture from this morning, because we see a woman with such faith, she's willing to face being ostracized, and a lot more, because the according to Leviticus 15:25-27, she's considered unclean because of the disease she has, and nobody is to be around her. I also see a person who felt ashamed for something that she couldn't control, and she was willing to venture out in faith and cling to Christ in her dire need. I think that's why the questions from this morning's devotional challenged my heart so much today, and I'd like to share them with you. Please read these questions very carefully, and I pray that God will speak to your heart through them and let you know how much He truly loves you. What’s caused you suffering and fear? To what or whom have you turned for help and healing? Tonight, my friends, I'd like to share some things that God showed me from His Word, concerning this woman, through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with all of you, will help you to see that you are unconditionally loved by God, and you never have to feel ashamed or scared to come before Him in faith, with whatever you are facing.

How can you cling to Jesus today? My prayer for all of you, my friends, is that no matter what suffering and fear you are experiencing, no matter what trauma you are enduring, no matter what your story is my friends, don't be afraid to venture out in faith and cling to Christ in your hour of need. Know that God unconditionally loves you, and that love is everlasting! That God is willing and ready to welcome you and come to your aid, so that when you want to tell him your story, he will not only listen, but will accept you, and call you, His child. UNTIL MONDAY MY DEAR FRIENDS: HAVE AN ABUNDANTLY BLESSED EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!
