THE ONE THING 1

And that is where we begin. Before we receive, we remember. Before we choose, we listen. Before we declare, we yield.

Even the ram caught in the thicket tells the story of Jesus. It was no accident that it stood there waiting—its presence was a divine appointment. A ram is rarely trapped by its horns; it is usually the flesh that gets entangled. But this ram, preserved without blemish, was held by its strength, not its weakness. Its horns—the symbol of power, authority, and kingly dominion—were woven into the thicket as though placed there by the hand of God.

In the Kingdom, fruitfulness is often the language of formation. It speaks to character, the slow and sacred work of the Spirit shaping us into the likeness of Christ. To be fruitful is to bear His nature. I had never thought about that until now. It is the Spirit’s evidence that we’ve allowed His life to take root in ours.

Let us not forget to Whom we have been betrothed. Our Bridegroom is near, and the Spirit has sealed us for such a time as this. We are not called to ourselves but to the One who loved us and gave Himself for us. Shall we not live for Him? The life Jesus died to give us is not a treasure to hoard but a witness that He is God, that He lives, and that He saves. Our lives are to provoke the hearts of those who have yet to know Him. 

Comparison is a subtle thief. It creeps in quietly, convincing us that what God has given is not enough. Like Cain with Abel, Rachel with Leah, or the elder brother with the prodigal, we begin to measure our worth by another’s portion and miss the miracle in our own hands. Yet Scripture reminds us that in Christ we already possess everything—His presence, His love, His provision. The lie of “not enough” blinds us, but the truth of Jesus restores our sight.

Beloved, stillness is not passivity: it’s Spirit-directed activity. It is laying down self-effort to abide in the presence of God. That doesn’t mean that there isn’t a wrestle. It means we fight differently. The enemy wasn’t just after my health alone—he was after the Word. The Lord showed me the battle was never meant to destroy me. Here me again, the enemy may have sent it, but he isn’t in control of it.

Your past doesn’t disqualify you. In Christ, shame is lifted, scars redeemed, and every broken place becomes a testimony of His relentless grace and glory.

Oftentimes, when we apply natural labels to things, we unintentionally set spiritual limits. Labels often appear harmless, but they can become liabilities when they’re not rooted in truth.

You Don’t Wash Before the Bath is a powerful devotional unpacking the scandalous grace of Jesus Christ. Many believe they must fix their lives before coming to God, but the Gospel flips that lie on its head. With scriptural truth and compassionate conviction, this post exposes the myth of self-cleansing and proclaims the finished work of Jesus. Come as you are—because grace doesn’t require pre-cleaning. It invites brokenness and offers full restoration through Christ.

Many believers avoid the Lord’s Supper due to fear or misunderstanding, not realizing it’s a Table of triumph, not shame. In this revealing post, Andrea Brown shares how the Bread and the Cup are not reminders of sin—but revelations of healing, inheritance, and the finished work of Christ. If you’ve ever approached Communion with trembling instead of trust, this is your invitation to come boldly, behold the Lamb, and partake with wonder.

When we settle, we forfeit God’s best. We end up embracing counterfeits not because He hasn’t provided, but because we lack steadfastness and patience, or fear convinces us that His best is out of reach.

The miraculous demands that what is understood of God, both His acts and His ways, not be limited to that single happening.

There has been a change, and it is the Blood. The command to be holy is wrought in the finished work of Jesus, not our effort.

Righteousness is not just our inheritance in Christ; it’s our daily path, inward peace, and outward witness. It is the assurance that the One who leads us is faithful. The journey may wind, the night may fall, but His light grows brighter. And in every step, we are becoming more like the One we follow.

“I find myself in such a season. The air hums with hope, bees buzz, birds sing, blossoms unfold—and everything says move. But the Lord says, ‘Be still.’ Not disengaged, but deeply rooted. Watching. Listening. Preparing.”

Through Scripture, testimony, and practical steps, it invites us to view our past through the lens of grace—where shame gives way to worship, wounds become altars, and our story is rewritten by the blood of Jesus. This is for the one who’s tired of letting pain narrate their identity—there’s a better Way.

Fear often carries a measure of credibility rooted in some aspect of factual reality. But set against the word of God, it's an outright lie.

In His presence, she found peace, And in His victory, her striving ceased. The battle was never hers to claim, But the Lord’s—
