Today’s Devotional
Bent but not broken. It pleases my God to lift me up.
Father, at times we feel embattled, pressured by our daily circumstances and needs. We have learned to flee from sinful reactions to pressure because You are pleased to deliver us, to lift us up in that moment, if we but turn to You. We know that our willingness to be in a relationship with You transports us from helplessness to dependence on You.

Israel – the Chosen or the Enemy?
It is incredible, given the size of Israel, that mighty nations will have decided that the nation of Israel must be dismantled. How could such a small nation have become the fulcrum upon which major international calamitous events could pivot?

Core Value 35: Does God really hear my prayers?
God is love and He requires us to love others as He loves us. If we are angry with our brothers we must first forgive them before asking God to forgive us and to hear our prayers.

The Story of Jacob: Part 1
GENESIS 28:10-22
10 Now Jacob went out from Beersheba and went toward Haran.
11 So he came to a certain place and stayed there all night, because the sun had set. And he took one of the stones of that place and put it at his head, and he lay down in that place to sleep.
12 Then he dreamed, and behold, a ladder was set up on the earth, and its top reached to heaven; and there the angels of God were ascending and descending on it.
