(2 Chronicles 20:12, ESV) For we are powerless against this great horde that is coming against us. We do not know what to do, but our eyes are on you. King Jehoshaphat and the people of Judah were surrounded by three major armies. They could have panicked, but instead Jehoshaphat called people together to pray. He didn't deny the facts or act like the problem didn't exist. He admitted th...

(Genesis 24:40, NIV) He replied, The LORD, before whom I have walked faithfully, will send his angel with you and make your journey a success. When Abraham was old and close to death, he told his assistant to travel back to his hometown to find his son, Isaac, a wife. The assistant asked him how he would know if it was the right girl, and Abraham was saying, Don't worry because I have a histo...

(Proverbs 22:1, NIV) A good name is more desirable than great riches; to be esteemed is better than silver or gold. Your reputation is one of the most valuable things you have. You can have great riches and yet be despised, looked down on, and seen as shady. But when you're a person of integrity, other people say, I can trust them. They always do the right thing. They're honest, fair, an...

(Psalm 31:19, NIV) How abundant are the good things that you have stored up for those who fear you, that you bestow in the sight of all, on those who take refuge in you. Sometimes we act as though God has a limited supply of favor, but He has unlimited resources. When God laid out the plan for your life, He put in it everything you need to fulfill your destiny. He's already lined up the right...

(Genesis 41:44, TLB) And Pharaoh declared to Joseph, I, the king of Egypt, swear that you shall have complete charge over all the land of Egypt. After thirteen years of being imprisoned in Egypt for a crime he didn't do, there was nothing in Joseph's circumstances that looked as if he would ever accomplish his dream of ruling a nation. But one day Joseph was called before Pharaoh to inte...

(Psalm 68:9, NIV) You gave abundant showers, O God; you refreshed your weary inheritance. It’s easy to lose our passion for life. At one time we loved to laugh, looked forward to the day, were believing for our dreams, but when things didn’t work out as we thought, we came into a dry place and life lost its flavor. You smile, but there’s no joy behind it. Sometimes we’re dry because we’re tired, t...

(John 5:5, AMPC) There was a certain man there who had suffered with a deep-seated and lingering disorder for thirty-eight years. The man in John 5 is described as having a “lingering disorder.” It’s not just a physical condition; it’s when we dwell on the negative things of the past and make excuses to settle where we are. When Jesus asked this crippled man, “Do you want to get well?” the man res...

(Ruth 1:9, NIV) Then she kissed them goodbye and they wept aloud… In the Scripture, the husband of Naomi unexpectedly died, then ten years later both of her married sons died. Heartbroken and destitute, Naomi decided to move back to Bethlehem. Her daughter-in-law Ruth refused to leave her, but Orpah did. Naomi could have felt betrayed and angry, but instead, she kissed Orpah goodbye. Orpah represe...

(Joshua 10:12, NIV) On the day the LORD gave the Amorites over to Israel, Joshua said to the LORD in the presence of Israel: “Sun, stand still over Gibeon.” One day when Joshua and the Israelite army were fighting a battle late in the day, he knew he wasn’t going to be able to finish the enemy off unless he had more daylight. He could have thought, “Too bad. They’ll escape in the night.” No, he kn...

(Isaiah 54:4, NIV) “You will forget the shame of your youth and remember no more the reproach…” In the Scripture, Isaac named his son Jacob, which means “trickster, deceiver, swindler,” and he became exactly that. Later in life, Jacob decided to confront his shameful past and change his life. One night the angel of the Lord told Jacob, “God is giving you a new name. You will be called Israel,” whi...

(Deuteronomy 32:11, NKJV) “As an eagle stirs up its nest, hovers over its young, spreading out its wings, taking them up, carrying them on its wings…” When I look back over my life, I see that the pivotal moments when I really grew came when I was pushed. At the time I didn’t like it, and I wanted to stay where I was. I wouldn’t have done it on my own. God had to shut doors and force me to take st...

(1 Kings 19:19–20, NKJV) Then Elijah passed by him and threw his mantle on him. And he left the oxen and ran after Elijah, and said, “Please let me kiss my father and my mother, and then I will follow you.” God told the prophet Elijah to anoint Elisha to succeed him as prophet. Elisha had a secure future in the family business that would be turned over to him one day. But when Elijah put his mantl...

(Proverbs 13:20, NLT) Walk with the wise and become wise; associate with fools and get in trouble. Who you spend your time with will have a great impact on what kind of life you live. There are people whom God ordained to come across your path to help you fulfill your destiny. The right people have already been lined up to inspire you, challenge you, and make you better. But if you’re hanging arou...

Psalm 34:10, NLT ...those who trust in the LORD will lack no good thing. It's easy to go through life thinking we are lacking in some area. "If I had a better personality, if I were more confident, if I were more attractive, I could reach my dreams." But as long as you think you are at a disadvantage, that you got shortchanged, that you are not up to par, it's going to keep you...

Mark 11:24, NIV Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. In Mark 11, Jesus was hungry and walked over to a fig tree only to discover that it was barren. After He said, "May no one ever eat fruit from you again," there was no evidence that what He said had happened. But the next morning "the disciples saw the fig t...

Isaiah 60:22, NCV I am the LORD, and when it is time, I will make these things happen quickly. We all have things we're believing for. You may have been patiently waiting, doing the right thing, praying, thanking God, but you don't see anything changing. It looks as though it's going to take a long time to get well, to break the addiction, to meet the right person. No, you need to g...

Psalm 103:1, NKJV Bless the LORD, O my soul; and all that is within me, bless His holy name! What better way to start the new year than to bless the Lord with all that is within you? David was saying, "God, I'm not giving You my half-hearted praise. I'm giving you a stirred-up praise, a passionate praise, my wholehearted praise." It's not a praise that waits for the right...

Exodus 4:10, MSG Master, please, I don't talk well. I've never been good with words, neither before nor after you spoke to me. I stutter and stammer. When God told Moses to go tell Pharaoh to let the people of Israel go, Moses was insecure and didn't feel qualified. However, God showed Moses miraculous signs so that he would go into the courts of Pharaoh with confidence, knowing tha...

R&N 360 Ministry takes this opportunity to express our appreciation to all our active listeners and their families for their support and love.  Beloved, you may ask how do I know that 2022 will be a better year? Because "every day with Jesus is sweeter than the day before." We wish for you a happy and prosperous new year. Matthew 18:3, NIV And he said: "Truly I tell you, unless...

Psalm 3:4, NIV I call out to the LORD, and he answers me from his holy mountain. What do you do when the odds are against you and nothing is working right? Sometimes we call on our friends or our spouse, but they can only do so much. When you call on the source, the Creator of the universe, that's when things happen that you couldn't make happen. God wants us to depend on Him. We have to...

Mark 10:48, AMP Many sternly rebuked him, telling him to keep still and be quiet; but he kept on shouting out all the more, "Son of David (Messiah), have mercy on me!" There were other sick people in the big crowd that day, but a blind beggar named Bartimaeus was the only person who was healed. Why? He wanted it more than they did. He wanted it so badly that he didn't let people tal...

Psalm 37:23, NKJV The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD, and He delights in his way. Today's Scripture doesn't say God suggested our steps. No, God is strategic. Before you were formed in your mother's womb, He laid out a specific plan for you. Nothing happens randomly. The good breaks and the times you see favor as well as the closed doors and disappointments are a part o...

(Psalm 100:4, NIV) Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name. What an amazing privilege we have to serve a personal God who desires a relationship with us. But notice that today’s Scripture tells us that we shouldn’t come empty-handed to the King of kings and the Lord of lords. What do we have to give that’s worthy of Almighty God? Our pra...

1 John 4:4, NIV You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world. We all have times when we feel like we're surrounded by difficulties, surrounded by a sickness, or surrounded by debt. When you're in a difficult time, the enemy will do a lot of talking. He'll tell you, "I have you surrounded. You&...

Deuteronomy 28:2, NKJV And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, because you obey the voice of the LORD your God. God has things in your future that are much bigger than you've imagined. The odds may be against you, but God is for you. We ask God for things that seem reasonable to us. We ask for our healing, to get out of debt, to meet the right person. That's good, b...
