We haven't used our "prayer request" tab yet, so I'll start! Please add yours here too!!! My husband, Don, had surgery to place a stent in an artery on Monday, but unfortunately, had a stroke during the surgery. He has weakness on his left side and will be in acute rehab for several weeks. We are believing for total restoration for him and strength and grace for me. Here's the verse God gave me last night. Isaiah 40:29 He gives power to the weak, and to those who have no might He increases strength! Be watching soon, I plan to schedule a live zoom meet and greet so we can get to know each other better! Have a blessed and prosperous day!

Most people think The Twelve Days of Christmas is just a fun, nonsensical holiday song—but it actually carries a powerful, faith-filled history. In this video, I share the true story behind this 16th-century Christmas carol, written during a time when Christians were forbidden to openly practice their faith. Believers used this song as a secret code to pass down biblical truth to their children—when even speaking the name of Jesus could cost them their lives. This is Part 1 of a 13-video Christmas series, where I’ll reveal the hidden meaning behind each gift in The Twelve Days of Christmas—uncovering the sacred truths woven into this beloved carol. It all begins with this powerful reminder: The “True Love” is God Himself. John 3:16 says, For God so loved YOU that He sent His Son! No one loves you like He does! Prayer: Thank You, Father, for Your unconditional love and for the freedom we have to worship You. Help us use that freedom to love and serve others this Christmas season. Question to Ponder: How am I using my freedom to worship—and to share God’s love with others today?

My husband has been in the ER twice this week. He’s going to be OK but it’s taking up a lot of my time. I promise I’ll be getting back to my daily devotionals on Monday!! I’ve also posted some great information under the classroom tab that you might want to check out. If you haven’t gotten my “70 promises for Victorious Life,” that would be a great place to start. You can download that as my gift to you! How are you doing? I what are your plans for Thanksgiving? Is there anything I can pray and agree with you for??? Looking forward to reading your comments!

Revelation 1:5–6 reveals a powerful truth about your identity: Jesus didn’t just save you—He elevated you. Through His blood, He made you a king and a priest unto God. That means when Scripture calls Jesus the King of kings, the “kings” it refers to are His children—believers like you. Romans 5:17 reminds us that we are called to reign in life through Christ. Kings don’t live defeated, intimidated, or lacking. Kings enforce authority, protect what belongs to them, and steward their territory with confidence. As a royal child of God, you have been given the authority to stand strong, declare God’s Word, and enforce His victory in every area of your life. Question to Ponder: What situation in your life right now is waiting for you to step into your God-given authority and “reign as a king” rather than react as a victim? *Daily Devos from my book, More Than a Ticket to Heaven, 101 days discovering your identity, inheritance and influence as a child of God.

In John 16:33, Jesus reminds us that while we will face tribulation in this world, we can still live with peace and confidence because He has overcome the world. That small word but changes everything—it cancels out fear, chaos, and defeat. The power of the world to harm us has been stripped away through Christ’s victory. We can live in courage, peace, and faith, choosing to focus on God’s promises rather than the world’s bad news. As citizens of God’s Kingdom, we are not of this world, and His Word guarantees our protection, health, and peace when we trust Him fully. Question to Ponder: Which side of the "but" are you living on today—the world’s fear and chaos, or God’s peace and victory?
