God informs us and Holy Spirit assures us - Jesus Christ is divine, holy, and He alone is worthy of all our praise, adoration, worship and allegiance. When we follow Him the Lord intercedes for His people in heaven, having all power and authority in His hands, Christ sets us upright to stand with Him through the days to come.

Isaiah 40:3-5 NASB reminds us of the powerful call to prepare the way for the Lord. "A voice is calling, clear the way for the Lord in the wilderness; Make smooth in the desert a highway for our God. Let every valley be lifted up, And every mountain and hill be made low; And let the rough ground become a plain, And the rugged terrain a broad valley; Then the glory of the Lord will be revealed, And all flesh will see it together; For the mouth of the Lord has spoken." Let’s reflect on this call to action, as we ready our hearts and lives for the glory of the Lord to be revealed. 🙏

Friend, our eternal hope is found in Jesus Christ. Every promise of God, from the Old Testament to the New, is fulfilled in Him. He is both the warning and the welcome—the victorious King who embodies God’s power, wisdom, holiness, and redeeming love. Through the Word of God, His life-transforming truth is revealed, offering hope and redemption for all.

Join us at Gospel Garage as we explore this message of unwavering hope and the promises of a Savior who changes everything.

Jesus walked this earth, facing temptations and pressures just as we do, yet He remained steadfast in faith and purpose. His life shows us that it’s possible to navigate today’s challenges without compromising our beliefs. True sanctification isn’t found in wealth or worldly approval but in aligning our lives with God’s purpose. In this episode, we explore how to live as vessels of His love, offering humble service, forgiveness, and hope to a world in need of salvation. Let’s learn from Christ’s example and embrace a faith-filled journey that glorifies God in every step.

As we approach a busy week filled with gatherings or, for some, a quiet week marked by loneliness, let us pause and seek Jesus in every moment. Christ, our Savior, is with His people, bringing joy and hope in all circumstances. This is a time to adore Him, to find contentment in the season God has placed us in, and to listen for the gentle voice of the Holy Spirit. Let’s share His comfort, peace, and love with a weary world. Christmas is a reminder that the King of kings is returning—let’s prepare our hearts with joy and anticipation.

Jesus stands at the door, knocking gently, offering the gift of life. He doesn’t force His way in—He waits for us to open our hearts. This is the beauty of Christ: the lover of our soul, mind, will, and emotions, calling us His own. Isn’t it time to give Him your allegiance? In this episode, we explore how our thoughts influence our feelings, our feelings shape our will, and our will transforms our hearts—either toward or away from God. Tune in for a heartfelt reflection on embracing the life-changing invitation of Jesus.

“The people who walk in darkness Will see a great light; Those who live in a dark land, The light will shine on them. You shall multiply the nation, You shall increase their gladness; They will be glad in Your presence As with the gladness of harvest, As men rejoice when they divide the spoil. For You shall break the yoke of their burden and the staff on their shoulders, The rod of their oppressor, as at the battle of Midian. For every boot of the booted warrior in the battle tumult, And cloak rolled in blood, will be for burning, fuel for the fire. For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us; And the government will rest on His shoulders; And His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace. There will be no end to the increase of His government or of peace, On the throne of David and over his kingdom, To establish it and to uphold it with justice and righteousness From then on and forevermore. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will accomplish this.” ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭9‬:‭2‬-‭7‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

Discover the power of biblical hope: a confident expectation in Christ's promises, "already and not yet." Explore Revelation 19:1-6, Romans 5:1-5, Hebrews 12:1-2.

Choose now a life of faith in Jesus Christ the risen Savior of the world. You may know His Name, but have not responded to His call to follow Him, or maybe you are following Him, yet feeling overwhelmed by challenges, pain, grief, and confusion. Why go on this journey with Jesus? Because Christ’s sacrifice has saved us from this “present evil age,” we do not dwell in eternal dark despair, alienated from our Heavenly Father, but are given access to every good and perfect gift the Lord offers when we walk within His will.

Our allegiance to Jesus Christ, a longing for His return, grasping His outstretched hand is a choice to make today — Holy Spirit beckons our response both now and forever—to be one of adoration and worship to the King of kings, Lord of lords. The earth is already filled with His glory, and every moment, every breath, becomes an opportunity to behold it. Yes Lord, may today be that day, We must respond.

From Genesis to Revelation we hear the presence of Jesus Christ, to be sure, God loves His people, Jesus bore the sin of humanity as He hung on the cross, the ransom….. He died for us, He rose again conquering death and as the body of Christ, His church, we have insight, direction, the revelation that the Bible is a message to the people of God because this world is too heavy to carry alone.

A deep, daily commitment to Christ is what will give purpose and meaning to the few waking years we have been given to glorify God! Friend, we gotta start now, let’s roll up our sleeves and stand with Jesus!

Scripture has the final teaching for those who profess themselves as followers of Christ, with a stern reminder for Christians to stop emulating the pattern of this world for the day will come when we will all stand before the judgment seat of almighty God, and no semblance of justification will save any man's soul if he has not already accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour.

May we be found at this hour, surrendered to Jesus, a people seeking God first, standing firm in the truth of Who the Christ is, not accepting the man-made version of a saviour that keeps us comfortable and numb to appease contemporary society.

How do we keep our head above the mud that is trying to smother? By fixing our eyes, our thoughts on Jesus…. Hebrews 12:1-3 NASB1995 “Therefore, since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us also lay aside every encumbrance and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. For consider Him who has endured such hostility by sinners against Himself, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.”

Grow in holiness, stay steadfast in prayer, and live by faith in Jesus Christ, seeking wisdom from the Holy Spirit for discerning God's will.

Embrace Jesus as Savior, repent, and turn from sin. Discover the power of the cross in your life. Scriptures guide you to true salvation.

If we have chosen to follow Jesus we are called to imitate Him, to be conformed to His image, to be holy as He is holy, to love as He loved, to obey as He obeyed, to abide as He abides, to share in Christs’ suffering. In short, followers of Jesus are called to become more like Christ each and every day in our thoughts, affections, and actions — our head, heart, and hands.

Discover how to stay grounded in faith amidst chaos and confusion by focusing on Jesus Christ, the Rock of our salvation.

This world is in the grip of the birth pangs of tribulation, we have been given time - in fact thousands of years - to repent and be reconciled to God by turning to Jesus as our Savior and Lord and while we might comfort ourselves with the thought that we can delay the choice until a future moment - do not be fooled - the Christ is coming.

Understand 1 Thessalonians 5:1-6 NASB1995: The day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. Stay alert and sober as sons of light and day.

God’s victory over sin and death is won; Jesus paid for our redemption. Eternal separation can be avoided by accepting Him. Will we be ready for His return?
