He is faithful, steady, and always working for your good. #GodOfOrder #PeaceInChrist #G...

📖 Scripture Focus: 1 John 1:1 Stay connected. Stay rooted. Stay in Him. God desires closeness with us. When we allow sin to go unchecked, it can dull our sensitivity to His voice and hinder our intimacy with Him. But through confession, repentance, and returning to Him, that connection can be restored. 📖 Scripture Focus: Psalm 22 Praise Him in every season. Trust Him in every moment. God invites...

We often believe we’re in control of our lives—that through our own strength, plans, and determination, we can accomplish anything. But then life happens. Trials come, unexpected challenges hit, and we’re reminded of a powerful truth: we are not in control—God is. In Job 38:1–7, God responds to Job, a righteous man who endured immense suffering and questioned why it was happening. By Job 42:1–6, w...

In this message, Haelle dives into Genesis 15:1–6, where God reassures Abram with the powerful words, “Do not be afraid.” Abram had questions. He had doubts. Yet God met him there — not with rejection, but with a promise. Abram believed the Lord, and it was counted to him as righteousness. That is expectant faith: trusting God’s word even when the outcome isn’t visible yet. Anna reflects on 1 King...
