    Your Daily Prayer 🙏🏾 1 Samuel 15:23

    Which do you care about more: reputation or righteousness?

    FRUITS OF THE SPIRIT ACTION: PATIENCE
    Choose to wait without complaining today. Take a moment to shift your focus to gratitude instead

    Today’s daily devotional is based on the story of Saul Disobeys God. Saul is rejected as king. His pride, greed, and disobedience lost him the favor of God and Samuel weeps over Saul’s fall.
    STORY
    Bible in a Year: Saul Disobeys God
    Scripture
    "Does the Lord delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying the Lord? To obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed is better than the fat of rams." - 1 Samuel 15:22
    What does it mean to truly obey God? Is it singing the right songs and wearing the right clothes? Is it saying the right things and reciting the right verses?

    In this episode of Bible in a Year, we encounter the story of King Saul's disobedience to God's command regarding the Amalekites. God instructs Saul to wipe out the Amalekites and all their possessions as a judgment for their past sins against Israel. However, Saul chooses to spare King Agag and the best of the livestock so everyone would see how strong he is.

    Saul chose personal glory over humble obedience.

    When confronted by the prophet Samuel, Saul attempts to justify his actions by claiming that he had saved the best animals to sacrifice to the Lord. But Samuel saw right through him. Saul had all the right words, but his heart wasn’t in the right place. Samuel rebukes Saul, declaring, "Does the Lord delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying the Lord? To obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed is better than the fat of rams" (1 Samuel 15:22).

    Faithfulness to God isn’t just about performing outward acts of worship or sacrifice. God cares about our hearts! Saul's failure to fully carry out God's instructions reveals a heart that prioritizes reputation over righteousness.

    Are there areas in which we prioritize our own interests or desires above God's commands? Do we offer sacrifices and acts of worship to God while neglecting to obey His word in our daily lives?

    True obedience requires humility, surrender, and a willingness to submit to God's authority. It involves aligning our will with His and obeying His commands, even when it may not be convenient or easy. Like Saul, we may be tempted to offer outward acts of worship while disregarding God's instructions, but true obedience requires a heart that seeks to please God above all else.

    REFLECTION
    Take time to examine your heart and attitudes toward obedience to God. Are there areas in your life where you have prioritized your own desires over God's commands? This week, commit to obeying God wholeheartedly in every area of your life, trusting that true fulfillment and blessing come from aligning your will with His. Pray for the humility and strength to obey God's word faithfully, knowing that obedience is the pathway to experiencing His abundant grace and blessings.

    PRAYER
    For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the Lord, he hath also rejected thee from being king.
    1 SAMUEL 15:23
    Lord, through today's reading of 1 Samuel and through the life of Saul, I now see that obedience is better than sacrifice. With this truth, I am now going through my life, and like the Amalekites, I will get rid of anything that is contrary to Your word and to the life You are helping me to build. I will not let the “King Agags” in my life, that represent sinful and destructive behaviors, linger around me when You’ve commanded me to eradicate them completely. I will not partner myself with people who have corrupt and compromising character no matter how much wealth they promise me. Instead, like Samuel I will sever all ties because obedience to You is better than sacrificing my integrity for treasures and wealth that will bring my downfall. There’s no disloyalty in me God, I am unwavering and locked into my purpose! In Jesus’ Name, Amen. 🙏🏾

  • Episode 1323 - Jarvis Kingston Seek the Lord and his strength, seek his face continually.” 1 CHRONICLES 16:11 Father, help me to seek You !!
    2025/04/25
    Your Nightly Prayer 🙏🏾 1 Chronicles 16:11

    Seek the Lord and his strength, seek his face continually.”
    1 CHRONICLES 16:11


    DEVOTION
    Based on 1 Chronicles 16
    This verse invites us into a lifestyle of constant pursuit—seeking the Lord not just in moments of need but daily, moment by moment. We are called to seek His strength because our own will falters. We are called to seek His face because nothing compares to the beauty of His presence.

    To seek God’s face is to desire closeness, to long not just for what He gives but for who He is. It’s about relationships, intimacy, and dependence. His strength sustains us, and His presence transforms us. The more we seek Him, the more we find peace, clarity, and joy.

    Take a moment tonight to turn your heart fully toward Him. Breathe out weariness, and breathe in His strength. Ask Him to help you seek Him continually—with all your heart.
    A.C.T.S. REFLECTION
    ADORATION: Praise God for being near and knowable. Worship Him for His strength, His beauty, and the joy of seeking His face.

    CONFESSION: Reflect on times when you’ve sought strength elsewhere or neglected to seek His presence. Confess any distractions and return your focus to Him.

    THANKSGIVING: Thank God for being available and faithful every time you seek Him. Express gratitude for the strength and peace He gives to those who draw near.

    SUPPLICATION: Father, help me to seek You continually—not only in trouble but in every moment. Fill me with Your strength and draw me closer to Your heart. Let my life be marked by a deep desire to know and follow You.

    PRAYER
    “Seek the Lord and his strength, seek his face continually.”
    1 CHRONICLES 16:11
    Dear Lord, You are mighty and worthy of all our praise! We honor You today, Lord, for Your abundant mercy and never-ending grace. When we are weary and struggling to press on, show us Your unwavering character. Give us power through Your Holy Spirit not just to endure, but to thrive! In Jesus’ name, Amen. 🙏🏾

  • Episode 1322 - Jarvis Kingston Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures
    2025/04/24
    Your Nightly Prayer 🙏🏾 Psalm 16:11

    Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.”
    PSALM 16:11

    The plans of the diligent lead to profit as
    surely as haste leads to poverty." —
    Proverbs 21:5

    DEVOTION
    Based on Psalm 16
    This verse reminds us that true joy and fulfillment are found not in circumstances, but in God’s presence. He doesn’t just point us toward life—He walks with us, guiding us step by step. His path leads to peace, purpose, and eternal delight.

    Joy in His presence isn’t temporary or shallow—it’s full and lasting. The world offers distractions and quick fixes, but only God satisfies the soul. At His right hand, we find pleasures that are not fleeting, but forever—anchored in relationship with Him.

    Take a moment tonight to quiet your heart before Him. Breathe out restlessness, and breathe in joy. Let His nearness be your source of peace and purpose.
    A.C.T.S. REFLECTION
    ADORATION: Praise God for being the source of life, joy, and eternal delight. Worship Him for His nearness that satisfies the deepest longings of your heart.

    CONFESSION: Reflect on moments you’ve sought joy in temporary things. Confess any ways you’ve drifted from His presence or forgotten where true fulfillment is found.

    THANKSGIVING: Thank God for revealing the path of life and for the joy that comes from walking with Him. Express gratitude for the comfort of His presence.

    SUPPLICATION: Father, draw me deeper into Your presence. Show me the path You’ve prepared for me, and let my heart find its joy and satisfaction in You alone—today and forevermore.

    PRAYER
    “Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.”
    PSALM 16:11
    Dear Lord, There are nearly endless places I could run to for comfort and joy. Yet they all turn out to be wells that run dry. However, You, Oh Lord, never cease to refresh me. In Your presence is the fullness of joy. I want to remain beside You all the days of my life, so I can experience the true meaning of heaven. In Jesus’ name, Amen. 🙏🏾
