Your Daily Prayer

Tom DeRosa, founder of the Creation Studies Institute in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, is a former evolutionist and atheist who came to Christ through the ministry of Dr. D. James Kennedy. He believes Christians can celebrate Earth Day by emphasizing the earth as a gift from God, specially designed to support life.

‘It is finished’ were words uttered by our God that hold more meaning, power, and love than we truly have the ability to understand fully.

The grave of Jesus and the graves in our lives don’t get the final word. No situation, season, or soul is too far gone for Jesus's power to breathe life into again.

May you rest in Jesus this Holy Saturday. May you experience his love. May his grace and his stillness calm your soul.

Just like the first Easter, our good God will roll away the stone from the grave of every one of your days and resurrect something more beautiful than you ever imagined.

God’s strength means that our discouragements will never beat us. God’s love means the Lord’s comfort can be met in the darkest places.

As we observe ‘Spy Wednesday,’ let's take a humble posture of watchfulness and remember that our sinful nature can lead us into dark places. Let us not be like Judas but instead embrace living with a repentant heart and seeking to serve God, not betray him.

Let’s begin to take those small steps of faith, knowing that every step, big or small, matters in His Kingdom. My heart longs for the day to see my risen Savior say to me, “Well done, good and faithful servant.”

As we enter Holy Week, let us set aside the next few days to truly reflect on the life, passion, and ultimate sacrifice that Jesus made for us on the cross.
