God will deliver His faithful people through drought and follow it up with showers of blessing. Always remember that—both physically and spiritually, rain comes from God alone. God showers His blessing by the revival, rediscovery, and reformation of His Word. God will bring rain in its season. Pray for Rain.

Jesus who raises Christians from the grave and death's eternal darkness will also lead them to walk in living fellowship with Him and His people of Light. You Will Walk Before God in the Light of the Living!

The source of strength and faith is God—and the source of seeking and finding Him for ourselves is His self-revelation in the holy Scriptures. Keep Going to God's Word to Find Him and Yourself.

The heart of Christians should be seen in a life consumed with building Christ's Church to leave to their children for their continual, covenanted commitment to a life centered around glorifying God's name. Have a Burning Heart for Building Christ's House.

Pastor Grant Van Leuven gave the promotion ceremony address, "Be Kind," to Heritage Christian School kindergarteners on Friday, June 12, 2026. His son, Gideon Emmanuel Van Leuven, was one of the children being promoted. It was held at Skyline Church in San Diego.

Christians are to forgive one another just as God forgave us in Christ. Forgiveness is Powerful!

God's people can close their day with thankful praise because the Lord has all along again provided for them in every way. Transition from Morning to Evening with Continual Praise for God's Provision Throughout Your Day.

Because God's enemies seeking to deceive and destroy His people will be disappointed and devastated at Christ consummation of His kingdom, Christians can rejoice in rising and reigning forever over His enemies. Sleep Sweetly in Christ for in Him You Shall Rise Again and Reign Forever!

God's mercy that endures forever gives supernatural cause for the most natural eruption of praise and rejoicing from our soul and body every morning! God's Gift of Everlasting Life is Cause for Enduring and Eternal Rejoicing Every Morning.

Because God always holds us up at night we always can cling to Him to make it to the morning light. Cling to Christ Every Night.

Morning devotions that reflect weekly morning Sabbath worship gives God's people glorious glimpses of His power to dwell on and derive from for living each day. Meet with Your Glorious God Each Morning and Be Blessed by His Powerful Presence.

Remembering how God clearly cared for us all day as night falls upon us protects us from fright while covering us with delight. Recollect with God of His Continual Daily Care at Night and be Covered with His Delight.

In our wilderness wanderings we must first thirst for God to quench us with Himself. First Thirst for Christ's Living Waters Every Morning.

God is the last thing and Person to be thought about and sought out before you go to sleep at night. Close Your Days at Night with Christ.

Christ grows and builds His Church through many stages of service by His various saints. Behold How You Are All Builders of Christ's Kingdom.

God's people must be compassionately considerate about what might be behind a person's sinful actions. Compassionately Consider the Stories of Other Sinners.

Satan wants to usurp Christ's kingdom worship by tempting you to not bother to get up and go out of your way to offer the sacrifices of praise where God has ordained public worship. Beware of the Idolatry of Idle Worship.

Giving yourself over to the world's evil ways begins and ends with selling your self to the Evil One. Don't Sell Your Soul to the Devil.

Though the enemies of God seek to cut His people off and stop us from serving Him, the LORD Himself always is supporting us to keep us going. The LORD is Always Your Stay.

There is a danger of being drug away or held back from purity in worship and service to the Lord based upon evil influences by those closest to us in our family—and especially when we are most vulnerable during our old age. Serve the LORD with Zeal in Your Olden Years.

Because God's hands reach out everywhere wherever we are, He always is and always will be taking care of us—and thus we should always lift up our hands in praise to Him. Raise Your Hands Praising God for His Ever-Present, All Providing Hands Always Under, Over, and Around You.
