    The Lord is Near

    By Vera Malova

    August 17th, 2026

    I was raised in northern Kazakhstan, but when we moved to the town of Bor in 1993, I remember the TV ads for Pastor John Carter’s evangelistic meetings across the Volga River in Nizhny Novgorod, Russia.

    Things weren’t going smoothly at home. My husband often took to the bottle, and my eldest son Sasha had started drinking, too. So I was happy when Sasha began attending those meetings every day. They gave him a Bible, and when Sasha brought it home, I began to read it. By the time I reached the New Testament, I’d realized we weren’t living the way God wanted us to, so I read it again.

    In the meantime, Sasha was baptized and began inviting me to church. I wanted to support him, but I worked on Saturdays. However, my hands began to ache so badly that I had to go to the hospital and take a break from work. The following Saturday, my son stared at me intently, wondering if I would go to church with him, so I went.

    I have a habit of looking people in the eye, and I was amazed to see such kind and affectionate eyes. Everyone was glad to see me, and they all smiled, so I continued going to church and soon decided to be baptized.

    On the day before my baptism, my husband came home from work drunk, hit his head, and stopped breathing. My son gave him CPR, but his breathing stopped as soon as he let up.

    “Lord, I give my whole family into Your hands!” I cried—and instantly, my husband began breathing again. God literally raised him from the dead!

    Although two of my children were baptized, my husband would not surrender to the Lord, threatening and calling me ugly names. Once, in a fit of anger, he began choking me.

    Another time, my children attended a youth group while I stayed home, reading my Bible. My husband came in drunk and said, “Aren’t you going to church, too?”

    “Yes, I think I will,” I answered.

    “Then perhaps you’ll also decide to be baptized!” he snorted.

    When I replied that I’d already been baptized, he grabbed a large Kitchen knife and shouted, “Then your life is over!”

    His eyes burned with a terrible fire! He lunged at me but suddenly froze in place. He stood there a while, holding the knife and shouting over and over, “You will not live!”

    Shaking with fear, I closed my eyes tightly and prayed silently for deliverance. Suddenly, I saw a beautiful rainbow in my mind with fiery letters that read, He will not hurt you!

    Throwing the knife down, my husband fell on the sofa, sobbing. My guardian angel had stood between us and protected me! “For He shall give His angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways.” Psalm 91:11.

    As a family, we began praying earnestly for him. My children tried talking to him about God, but he answered, “That’s just how it’s written in your American Bible.”

    Lena bought him a Russian Orthodox Bible with a cross on it, blessed by Patriarch Alexy II, and as she read texts from her Bible, he read the same text in his; and whether from the Old or New Testament, every text matched word for word!

    Despite being convinced, my husband continued to drink as our family implored for God’s help. Finally, Sasha asked, “Father, why are you resisting?” He replied, “Okay, I will ask God to help me stop drinking.”

    He began carrying the Ten Commandments in his pocket and telling his co-workers and friends that they should follow them. He also promised to go to church but never did. Instead, he drank until he lost the feeling in his legs from his knees on down.

    One morning I woke up joyful. My eyes were shining when I said to him, “You cannot imagine how good you’d feel if you’d quit drinking,” to which he replied, “Then I’ll quit today.”

    Sadly, that was the day he died from his illness.

    It’s impossible to live in this world without God because there are problems such as alcoholism that no one else can solve. My son, who led me to God, eventually stopped going to church and began drinking again. But although he got so bad that he started hearing voices, our whole church family prayed for him, and after many years, he came back to the Lord and sobered again.

    Don’t think that the Lord is somewhere far away. He is right here with you! We all live in debt to the Lord, and a price has been paid for our life. Jesus paid the price for each of our days, each piece of bread we eat, and each breath we take. He paid it with His precious blood!

    Jeremiah 29:11 and 13 say, “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.… And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart.”

    Seek the Lord, for He is near.

  • Good evening, brethren.
    1. Evening devotion for today.

    ED.i. *DAILY WALK WITH CHRIST*
    (COCIN DEVOTIONAL)

    *DATE:*
    SATURDAY 15TH AUGUST, 2026.

    *SUB-THEME:*
    YOUTHS: VESSELS OF GOD'S GRACE.

    *TOPIC:*
    BE SANCTIFIED.

    *TEXT:*
    1 THESSALONIANS 4:4-5.
    4 Each of you must know how to control his own body in a holy and honorable manner,
    5 not with passion and lust like the gentiles who do not know God.
    1Co 15:34 Eph 4:18 [Col 3:5]

    *TOPIC:*
    BE SANCTIFIED.

    *THE MESSAGE:*
    To be sanctified means to be set apart for God's purpose. God is holy (Lev. 20:7), so He calls His people to live in holiness, especially the way they control their bodies. In our reading, believers are urged to practice self-discipline, avoid sexual immorality, live honourably, and not be driven by lust like unbelievers. Sadly, many youths today compromise their sanctification through exposure to immoral content, substance abuse, and other defiling influences. Unwanted pregnancies, abortions, and eloping marriages are rampant. These affect the Christian testimony adversely. God desires pure vessels for His glory. Are you trapped in such vices? Do not give up; God is the God of second chances. Come to Him in repentance and be cleansed.

    *REFLECTION:*
    Sanctification is not optional.

    *PRAYER:*
    Lord, help me to set myself aside for Your use. Amen.

    *MEMORY VERSE FOR THE MONTH:*
    2 TIMOTHY 2:21.
    "If a man cleanses himself from the latter, he will be instruments for noble purposes, made holy, useful to the Master, and prepared to do any good work."

    *TODAY'S BIBLE READING PLAN:*
    LAMENTATIONS 1-5.

    ED.ii. THE STRUGGLE TO PRAY

    "So I find this law at work: Although I want to do good, evil is right there with me. For in my inner being I delight in God's law; but I see another law at work in me, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within me." - Romans 7:21-23

    Many people find it difficult to pray because they are struggling. You want to pray, read the Bible and go to the church meeting. You want to obey God and follow Him. But it seems like a battle has started in you. It seems as if there is an inner struggle between the light and the darkness and you do not know what to do. You had such a need to do the abovementioned, but it is as if the evil one is whispering all kinds of wrong things to you. You got up in the morning with the best intentions but a few hours later they are all gone.

    The struggle between two natures

    There was a time when the great apostle Paul was also bothered by this: 'For I do not do the good I want to do, but the evil I do not want to do — this I keep on doing' (Romans 7:19). There is a law of the flesh which pulls you down and a law of the Spirit which pulls you up.

    This means that there are still two natures working in your life. It means that the 'old man' has not died yet. It means that the process to Calvary has not yet taken place in you. The 'old man' is still too strong. This struggle must end in your life and Jesus wants to help you with that. You have to go from Romans 7 to Romans 8, which starts with: 'Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.'

    Only people who desire to live in this new and redeemed life of Romans 8 are able to be real intercessors and prayer warriors. Allow that 'old man' to die like the seed must die first before it bears fruit.

    2. Evening prayer for today.

    EP.i. Evening Prayer

    He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, [He is] my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust. ⏤ Psalm 91:1-2

    God is always trying to give good things to us, but our hands are too full to receive them. ⏤ Augustine of Hippo

    O God, our Father in Heaven, You have kept us through another week, and now we come to You seeking an evening blessing. We thank You for all that this week has been to us. Your goodness and mercy have been with us every day and every night. You have provided for us daily, just as You provided manna for Your people in the wilderness. You have blessed us with health, with friends, with the comforts of home, and with all the good things You have given us this week.

    But we haven’t been as faithful in our part. We’ve been forgetful and careless. We haven’t fulfilled all our duties to each other and to our neighbors. We’ve left many things undone that we should have done. Please forgive us and help us to learn from our failures so that we can live holier lives in the coming week.

    We leave all our work in Your hands. We look forward to Sunday with hope and longing, as we desire to come again to Your house of worship. Our souls thirst for You like dry, barren land thirsts for rain. Please prepare us for Sunday, so that when it comes, we may be ready to receive rich blessings.

    Keep us through the night. Protect us from all harm. Preserve our bodies from sickness and accidents, and our souls from all kinds of evil. May we rest in peaceful sleep and wake up refreshed. We ask for special protection for our home from fire and any other dangers. We also remember our friends. Please give them a Saturday evening blessing.

    Hear our evening prayers, bless us, comfort us, strengthen us, and keep us. We ask all these things in the name of Jesus Christ, our Redeemer. Amen.

  • SATURDAY MORNING PRAYER

    “This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.” — Psalm 118:24 (KJV)

    Heavenly Father, we come before You this Saturday morning with grateful hearts. Thank You for carrying us through another week. Through every early morning, long day, difficult assignment, unexpected problem, stressful moment, and responsibility we had to handle—You kept us.

    Lord, some of us made it through this week tired. Some faced pressure on the job, difficult conversations, deadlines, uncertainty, and situations that tested our patience. Yet here we are. We made it—not because everything was easy, but because Your grace was sufficient.

    Your Word declares, “It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning.” — Lamentations 3:22-23 (KJV)

    Father, thank You for employment and every provision You have placed in our hands. Thank You for giving us strength to work, wisdom to make decisions, patience to deal with people, and endurance when we wanted to quit. Thank You for every door You opened, every danger You prevented, and even the things You protected us from that we never saw.

    Now, Lord, as we enter this weekend, help us to release the weight of the week. Quiet our minds. Restore our bodies. Refresh our spirits. Give rest to those who are physically exhausted and peace to those whose minds are still carrying yesterday's responsibilities.

    Your Word says, “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” — Matthew 11:28 (KJV)

    So today, Father, we give You the stress.
    We give You the frustration.
    We give You the unanswered questions.
    We give You the disappointments.
    We give You the things we could not fix.

    We refuse to carry into Saturday what You never intended us to carry alone.

    Bless our families and homes today. Protect our loved ones wherever they may go. Bring peace into every household, healing where there is sickness, restoration where relationships are strained, provision where finances are tight, and encouragement where someone has become weary.

    Lord, remember those who must still work today. Cover them on the highways and in the workplace. Give them strength, favor, wisdom, and protection. Let Your presence go before them and bring them safely home.

    And as we prepare for a new week, remind us that the same God who brought us through this week is already standing in our next one. We don't know everything Monday will bring, but we know Who holds Monday.

    Today we choose gratitude over complaining, peace over anxiety, faith over fear, and worship over worry.

    Thank You, Lord, for another Saturday morning.
    Thank You for keeping us.
    Thank You for providing for us.
    Thank You for protecting us.
    Thank You for bringing us through another week!

    In the mighty, wonderful, and matchless name of Jesus Christ, we pray.

    AMEN!

    DECLARATION...

    I DECLARE: I made it through another week by the grace of God! I will release yesterday's stress and receive today's peace. My mind will be refreshed, my strength will be renewed, my family will be covered, and my home will be blessed. I will rest knowing that God has already gone before me into the week ahead.

    THIS SATURDAY, I WILL REST, REJOICE, AND GIVE GOD THE GLORY—BECAUSE GOD HAS BEEN GOOD TO ME! 🏾

    “But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength.” — Isaiah 40:31 (KJV)

    TOPIC: THE WEIGHT OF COVENANTS, PART 2

    MEMORIZE:
    "Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine:" Exodus 19:5 (KJV)

    BIBLE READING: MATTHEW 11:28-30
    28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

    29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.

    30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

    MESSAGE:
    Holiness is living a life that reflects God’s character, and it is the major weight of a covenant with Him.

    Anyone who is in a covenant with God must be like Him (1 Peter 1:16), and this requires doing all that He asks. In return, the fellow will get many blessings from Him (Deuteronomy 28:1-14).

    Some people think that life will become a bed of roses when they become believers; however, Jesus never promised that. In today’s Bible reading, He said that everyone who comes to Him should carry His yoke. This means that being a child of God does not mean that a fellow will not bear any weight of God’s covenant, only that the weight will be light and easy to carry with the help of the Holy Spirit.

    Philippians 2:13 says. “For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.” God is willing able to fulfil the terms of your covenant with Him if you allow Him.

    When you enter into a covenant with God, you will no longer be permitted to do many of the things that unbelievers do. For them, those things may be right, but not for you. Paul said that although all things are lawful, not all things are expedient (1 Corinthians 10:23).

    Some people may argue that listening to worldly music is not a sin; however, for someone who has made a covenant with God, it is wrong. Some may dress seductively, but God will not approve of you dressing like that. You will get stricter instructions because of your covenant with God, but He will always empower you to obey Him.

    The good news is that if you carry the weight of God’s covenant well, you will enjoy its fruits forever.

    God entered into a covenant with my Father in the Lord, Pa Josiah Akindayomi and gave him certain conditions, and in return, He said that He would start a church through him that would spread around the world. Thank God Pa Akindayomi met those conditions, and when he passed away, God proceeded to fulfil His part of the covenant.

    Beloved, play your own part; carry the light yoke of God’s covenant of salvation and see Him move into action to fulfil His part of the covenant by showering you with His blessings. I pray that your life will be filled with God’s glorious blessings, in Jesus’ name.

    PRAYER POINT:
    Dear Father, please help me to carry the light yoke of your covenant willingly and joyfully. Help me to be holy as You are holy, in Jesus’ name.

    BIBLE READING IN ONE YEAR:
    JEREMIAH 37-39

    AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE

    HYMNAL 14: O WHAT A WONDERFUL, WONDERFUL DAY
    1 O what a wonderful, wonderful
    day, day I will never forget;
    After I'd wandered in darkness
    away, Jesus my Savior I met.
    O what a tender, compassionate
    friend, He met the need of my heart;
    Shadows dispelling, with
    joy I am telling, He made
    all the darkness depart.

    Heaven came down and glory
    filled my soul,
    When at the cross the Savior
    made me whole;
    My sins were washed away and
    my night was turned to day,
    Heaven came down and glory
    filled my soul!

    2 Born of the Spirit with life from
    above into God's family divine,
    Justified fully thru Calvary's
    love, O what a standing is mine!
    And the transaction so quickly was
    made, when as a sinner I came,
    Took of the offer, of grace
    He did proffer, He saved
    me, O praise His dear name!

    Heaven came down and glory
    filled my soul,
    When at the cross the Savior
    made me whole;
    My sins were washed away and
    my night was turned to day,
    Heaven came down and glory
    filled my soul!

    3 Now I've a hope that will surely
    endure after the passing of time;
    I have a future in heaven for sure
    there in those mansions sublime.
    And it's because of that wonderful
    day, when at the cross I believed;
    Riches eternal and blessings supernal,
    from His precious hand I received.

    Heaven came down and glory
    filled my soul,
    When at the cross the Savior
    made me whole;
    My sins were washed away and
    my night was turned to day,
    Heaven came down and glory
    filled my soul!

    TITLE: "HOLD FAST: GOD IS FAITHFUL TO HIS PROMISES"

    ANCHOR SCRIPTURE(S)

    Numbers 23:19 (KJV) "God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?

    Hebrews 10:23 (KJV) "Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)"

    QUOTE TO REFLECT ON

    "God's promises are dependable because His character never changes."

    DAY'S REFLECTION

    Human beings can make promises and later change their minds, forget their commitments, or become unable to fulfil what they said. God, however, is completely different. Numbers 23:19 declares that "God is not a man, that he should lie." His character is perfectly truthful, and His Word can always be trusted.

    The word "faithful" describes someone who is dependable, trustworthy, and consistent. When God speaks, His Word carries the certainty of His character. He does not make empty promises. If He has said it, He has the power and integrity to bring it to pass according to His will and timing.

    The second part of the message comes from Hebrews 10:23: "Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering." To hold fast means to cling firmly and refuse to let go. Wavering means becoming uncertain, unstable, or doubtful. Faith does not mean that we never experience questions or difficult emotions; it means that we refuse to abandon our confidence in God when circumstances become difficult.

    Life can test our faith. Sometimes we pray for an answer and nothing seems to change. Sometimes circumstances appear to contradict what God has promised. At such moments, our feelings may say, "Give up," but God's Word says, "Hold fast."

    Notice why we can hold fast: "for he is faithful that promised." Our confidence is not based on how strong we feel today. It is based on how faithful God is. Even when our strength is weak, His character remains unchanged.

    Therefore, do not measure God's faithfulness by today's circumstances. Continue trusting Him. Keep praying. Keep obeying His Word. Keep your confession of faith strong. The God who made the promise is faithful, and He knows exactly when and how to fulfil His purposes.

    Hold fast. Do not waver. God has not changed.

    MEDITATION SCRIPTURE(S)

    Isaiah 55:11 (KJV) "So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it."

    2 Corinthians 1:20 (KJV) "For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us."

    LIFE LESSONS (IMPLICATIONS)

    1. God cannot lie; His Word is completely trustworthy.

    2. God's faithfulness is greater than our changing circumstances.

    3. Faith requires us to hold firmly to God's promises.

    4. Delays do not mean God has forgotten His Word.

    5. Our confidence should rest in God's character rather than our feelings.

    EVERYDAY ACTION

    Hold firmly to God's Word today; refuse doubt and let His faithfulness guide your decisions.

    PRAYER

    Faithful Father, strengthen my faith and help me hold firmly to Your promises without wavering. Give me patience to trust Your timing and confidence in Your unfailing Word. In Jesus' name, Amen.

    DECLARATION

    God is faithful, and His Word cannot fail. I will not waver or give up. I hold firmly to my faith, trusting that every promise God has ordained for my life will be fulfilled according to His perfect will. Amen.
