Welcome Refining Fire




#40dayemphasis #dailydevotionalreading
For You, O God, have tested us; You have refined us as silver is refined. (Psalms 66:10)

God only tests and refines good things! Everything else burns up. When you feel the heat, just know what follows is refinement.

The Apostle Peter put it this way:
In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need be, you have beengrieved by various trials, that the genuineness of your faith, being much more precious than gold that perishes, though it is tested by fire, may be found to praise, honor, and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ (1 Peter 1:6)

Upholding My Life - A Quick Word of Encouragement



#40dayemphasis #devotionalreading

Psalms 54:4, Behold, God is my helper; The Lord is with those who uphold my life. 

These words of David are taken from a time when he was in peril. David had been betrayed by the Ziphites (1 Samuel 23:19), who informed King Saul of his hiding place.

When times are difficult, we appreciate God all the more. We also appreciate the people who support us. There are some people around us who literally "uphold my life."

God did not design us to walk alone, but within community and family.

Wrong Strength vs. God's Strength - Firm Foundation Inspiration Minute #180 for July 30, 2025


“Wrong Strength vs. God's Strength”





Psalm 52:1, Why do you boast in evil, O mighty man? The goodness of God endures continually.

6 The righteous also shall see and fear, And shall laugh at him, saying, 7, Here is the man who did not make God his strength, But trusted in the abundance of his riches, And strengthened himself in his wickedness. But I am like a green olive tree in the house of God; I trust in the mercy of God forever and ever. 9 I will praise You forever, Because You have done it; And in the presence of Your saints I will wait on Your name, for it is good.

Psalms 37:3 (NLT) "Trust in the Lord and do good. Then you will live safely in the land and prosper. 4 Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you your heart’s desires. 5 Commit everything you do to the Lord. Trust him, and he will help you."
