~. . . And the evening and the morning were the 237th day. Good Morning, God's Beloved.

The Greatest Commandment

In Matthew 22:37, Jesus said: "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind."

This verse is a powerful reminder of the greatest commandment, calling us to a wholehearted devotion to God. It challenges us to examine the depth and sincerity of our love for Him, urging us to go beyond following the rules of religious traditions and to cultivate an intimate, all-encompassing relationship with our Creator.

Loving God with all our heart means that our emotions and desires are aligned with His will. It means that we prioritize Him above all else, allowing His love to shape our affections and guide our decisions. When we love God with all our soul, we are committing our very being to Him. Our identity, purpose, and existence are rooted in His love, and we find our true fulfillment in living for His glory.

To love God with all our mind is to engage our intellect in the pursuit of knowing Him more deeply. It involves meditating on His Word, seeking His wisdom, and allowing His truth to transform our thoughts and perspectives. This holistic love for God is not a one-time event but a daily, intentional choice to surrender every aspect of our lives to Him.

Reflecting on this commandment, we are reminded that our love for God should be evident in every area of our lives. It should influence how we interact with others, how we spend our time, and how we use our resources. As we grow in our love for God, we become more attuned to His presence and more responsive to His leading.

Today, let’s surrender our hearts, souls, and minds to God. Let us seek to deepen our relationships with Him, knowing that as we do, we will experience the fullness of His love and the abundant life He promises. Amen.

Be inspired by a journey of transformation, forgiveness, and God’s redeeming grace.

Kingdom Carriers | What Will Remain?

Life has a way of reminding us that not everything we spend our time pursuing will ultimately matter.

Jesus said:

"Life does not consist in an abundance of possessions." — Luke 12:15

One day, the titles will be gone.
The possessions will belong to someone else.
The applause will fall silent.
And many things we thought were urgent will no longer matter.

What will remain?
The lives we touched.
The love we gave.
The faith we carried.
The Christ we reflected.

Paul reached the end of his journey and didn't speak about what he had accumulated.

He simply said:

"I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith." — 2 Timothy 4:7

Perhaps that's a life well lived.

Not simply to leave behind more.

But to leave behind evidence that Jesus mattered to us.

Grace and peace,

Jacob

MID-MORNING DEVOTION | 26 AUGUST 2026

“Treat others the way you would like them to treat you.”
Matthew 7:12

As we go through this day, let us remember that our companions, friends, colleagues and neighbours also carry their own struggles.

Let us speak with kindness, act with respect, show patience, and offer understanding.

Before we judge, let us remember that we also need grace.
Before we speak harshly, let us ask:

“Would I want someone to speak to me this way?”

PRAYER

Dear Lord, help us to treat others with the love, kindness and respect we desire for ourselves. May our words encourage, our actions bring peace, and our lives reflect Your character.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.

May your day be filled with grace, peace and kindness.

Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them. Romans 16:17

While the Scripture admonishes us to love one another, it also reveals those we should avoid. And one of such categories of people to avoid which are those that cause division amongst us. We are not to hate them but to avoid them. Matter of fact, it is love to avoid them.
They cause division by inciting others to hate another, bring gossip, give wrong interpretation, misinformation and always point out what is wrong or what is not done so as to bring conflict that leads to division. They are always offended and everything gets them angry. This is a tool in their hands to cause division.
These kind of people will always find a way into our midst: in the church, family, business and association, and the best way to handle them is to AVOID THEM.
Don't just relate with people, mark who they are and give them their rightful place. Don't mingle with people that cause division, they will take you away from your blessing. Interestingly, Miriam shows us the best reward for those who cause division.
SELAH.

DAY 26 - Morning
Theme: BUILDING A SAFE HOME: Creating a Marriage Where Love, Respect and Peace Can Grow.

Morning Reflection
Fight the Problem, Not Each Other

Good morning,
Every marriage has disagreements.
The question is not:
"Will we ever disagree?"
The better question is:
"How will we disagree?"
When the issue becomes:
"You are selfish."
"You never listen."
"Your family is the problem."
the discussion has moved from solving a problem to attacking a person.
Instead, learn to say:
"We have a problem. Let's face it together."
The goal is not to defeat your spouse.
The goal is to defeat the problem.
God's Word
"A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger." — Proverbs 15:1

Today's Love Action
If a disagreement arises today, deliberately use "we" instead of "you."

Let's Talk
What words or habits tend to make disagreements worse in marriage?
Prayer
Lord, help us remember that we are partners, even when we face problems. Give us wisdom and gentleness in conflict. Amen.

From My Counselor's Chair
When couples stop seeing each other as enemies, many conflicts become easier to solve.

Marriage Nugget
"Don't fight your spouse over the problem; stand beside your spouse against the problem."

Remember
In marriage, it is not about winning the argument; it is about winning each other's hearts.

God designed YOU to be part of something bigger!
