Blessed, Abundant, and Prosperous

And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

Philippians 4:19

Financial gain is not the only form of blessing. Economic increase is not the sole indicator of an abundant life. Culture tells us that prosperity is measured by money, material possessions, popularity, and power—but God defines blessing very differently.

Yes, when our bank account grows, it can be a blessing. But that is not the only way God provides. We often equate abundance with more money, newer gadgets, influence, or recognition. Yet Scripture reminds us that God supplies every need, not just financial ones.

God’s blessings extend far beyond material gain. Every breath we take is a gift. Every day we wake up is provision. Even the hardships we endure often bless us in ways we do not immediately recognize. There are moments when God protects us from things we never even see, redirects us from paths that would have harmed us, and strengthens us through obstacles we never thought we could overcome.

We can have everything the world offers and still lack joy, peace, and fulfillment. Abundance is not about having more things—it is about a life that overflows and impacts others. True abundance produces growth, discipline, obedience, and spiritual maturity. It is not something we hoard or show off; it is something that transforms us and flows through us.

Power and popularity are not the only measures of prosperity. Through Christ, we have victory over sin, strength in trials, and protection in every battle we face. God desires for us to live blessed lives—not merely financially successful ones, but spiritually grounded, joy-filled, and obedient lives rooted in Him.

Do not confine God’s blessing to a bank balance or a follower count. His love, provision, and faithfulness are far greater than money or status. Every day is a blessing. God’s love is abundant, His provision is sufficient, and His promises are everlasting.

Daily Challenge

Redefine what blessing means in your life.

Today, take inventory of the ways God has provided for you beyond money—strength, protection, peace, growth, or deliverance. Thank Him for those unseen blessings, and ask Him to help you trust His provision even when your circumstances do not align with the world’s definition of prosperity.

Daily Prayer

Heavenly Father, the world tells me that blessing and prosperity are measured by money, possessions, and popularity. Help me to see that every day is a gift and that Your provision goes far beyond finances. Thank You for the ways You protect me, strengthen me, and lead me—even when I am unaware. I give You all glory, honor, and praise for all You have done, all You are doing, and all You will do. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

God Bless! 🙏🏿✌🏿💙💪🏿

Seek His Heart

And when he had removed him, he raised up David to be their king, of whom he testified and said, ‘I have found in David the son of Jesse a man after my heart, who will do all my will.’

Acts 13:22

Welcome to 2026. A new year brings new opportunities—new doors to open and new paths to walk. Yet, for many, a new beginning also brings uncertainty. Questions arise. Direction feels unclear. We wonder which steps are worth taking and which paths will lead us forward.

Scripture reminds us that God never leads His people astray. When we make seeking God’s heart and God’s will our highest priority, we cannot go wrong. Our own will is flawed. Our hearts are prone to deception. What feels right in the moment can quietly lead us off course. What pleases the flesh often hinders the calling.

David was not chosen because he was perfect. He was chosen because he pursued God’s heart. That is the standard—not comfort, not convenience, not culture—but obedience.

As we step into 2026, there will be moments of discomfort. There will be seasons where obedience feels costly, and direction feels unclear. But we are instructed not to lean on our own understanding. God refines through fire. He humbles through hardship. He shapes His people through surrender.

God was faithful in 2025. He sustained you through every storm, carried you over every mountain, and preserved you through trials you never thought you would survive. If He did not forsake you then, He will not abandon you now.

This year, seek God’s heart. Pursue His will. Trust that He is still in control—and that He will always turn pain into purpose and tragedy into triumph.

Daily Challenge

Seek God’s heart before you chase results.

Before making decisions this year—big or small—pause and ask: Does this align with God’s will or just my comfort? Commit to obedience even when it stretches you. Write down one area of your life where you need to surrender control and intentionally invite God to lead.

Daily Prayer

Heavenly Father, a new year can bring uncertainty and anxiety. Help me seek Your heart and Your will above my own. When life starts lifing, remind me of every storm You carried me through in 2025 and every mountain You helped me climb. Thank You for what You have done, what You are doing, and what You will do. All glory, honor, and praise belong to You. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

God Bless! 🙏🏿✌🏿💙💪🏿

Move Forward With Faith

Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make straight your paths.

Proverbs 3:5-6

Another year has passed—a year filled with trials, obstacles, and victories. When we look back, it is easy to fixate on the hardships. The lows tend to stand out more than the wins, stirring anxiety and regret. We replay moments we wish we could redo, decisions we think we mishandled, and opportunities we believe we missed.

But life has always been filled with peaks and valleys. We cannot rewind time, and we do not get a second attempt at yesterday. Haranguing ourselves over past mistakes does not produce growth—it produces fear. Instead of condemning ourselves, we must recognize that every misstep carries instruction.

Maybe we did drop the ball. Maybe we could have shown more discipline, more consistency, or more courage. But as we step into a new year, those experiences now serve as guidance. We know what to avoid. We know which relationships sharpen us and which distract us. We know where the mines in the minefield are buried.

Mistakes and adversity are unavoidable realities of life. Yet when we frame every failure as defeat, we resist the very growth God is producing in us. Losses are not the opposite of progress—they are often the pathway to it. Each fall teaches us how to stand with greater strength. Each setback builds character and fortifies faith.

God has not abandoned us in the valleys, nor has He been absent on the mountaintops. He walks with us through every season. No matter how the previous year unfolded, the Lord remains faithful, working all things together for our good. As we move forward, we are not called to trust our understanding—we are called to trust Him.

Daily Challenge

RELEASE LAST YEAR AND TRUST GOD WITH THE NEXT.

Today, identify one failure, loss, or regret you have been carrying from the past year. Instead of rehearsing it, surrender it to God. Ask Him what He taught you through it, then intentionally move forward in obedience—trusting His direction rather than your own understanding.

Daily Prayer

Heavenly Father, this past year has been filled with both challenges and victories. Too often, the hardships and losses speak louder than the wins. Help me quiet that noise and recognize the lessons You have been teaching me all along. Thank You for carrying me through another year. As I step into 2026, help me trust You fully, lean on Your wisdom, and follow where You lead. I give You all glory, honor, and praise. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

God Bless! 🙏🏿✌🏿💙💪🏿

Bigger Than A Book

For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.

Hebrews 4:12

The Bible is not just one book. It is a library of 66 books written over roughly 1,500 years, spanning multiple authors, cultures, and writing styles. Within its pages are poems and songs, historical records, prophecy, narrative, law, and genealogy. Yet despite its diversity, Scripture speaks with one unified voice—God’s.

The Bible is inspired by God and without error. There are no mistakes in Scripture. When we face hardship, confusion, financial strain, or seasons of spiritual dryness, God’s Word provides what we need. Not merely information, but direction. Not just comfort, but correction.

Hebrews 4:12 reminds us that the Word of God is living and active. It does not sit passively on a shelf. It moves. It works. It cuts. Like a sharp blade, it exposes what we often try to hide—our motives, our intentions, and the condition of our hearts. Scripture does not simply affirm us; it examines us.

The Bible is more than a book to be read. It is a lens through which life is meant to be viewed. Not through judgment and condemnation, but through truth, grace, and reverence for God. It teaches us how to live, how to love, how to worship, how to treat others, and how to steward our own hearts.

The Bible is bigger than a book.
It is a way of life.

Daily Challenge

LET THE WORD EXAMINE YOU.

Today, open Scripture not to be affirmed, but to be shaped. Ask God to reveal what needs to change—not just what feels good to hear. Don’t resist conviction. Let the Word do its work.

Daily Prayer

Heavenly Father, thank You for Your living and infallible Word. Thank You for guiding me through Scripture and for giving me truth that corrects, comforts, and transforms. Help me not only to read Your Word, but to apply it. Give me understanding where there is confusion and humility where Your Word exposes my heart. Teach me to see life through a biblical lens and to live in obedience to Your truth. All glory, honor, and praise belong to You. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

God Bless! 🙏🏿✌🏿💙💪🏿

God Already Knows

The eyes of the Lord are in every place, keeping watch on the evil and the good.

Proverbs 15:3

A bad decision.
An inappropriate thought.
A relapse—or the temptation to experiment again.

These are the moments we don’t want God to see.

We feel shame over our thoughts and guilt over our actions. And instead of bringing those things to the One who can actually heal us, we hide. We stay silent. We convince ourselves that secrecy is safer than surrender.

But shame keeps us trapped, and secrets keep us sick.

The very things we try to conceal from God are the things He is asking us to bring to Him. Yet we hesitate, believing that our thoughts, behaviors, and failures disqualify us from His love, grace, and mercy. We fear they somehow nullify our salvation.

That is a lie!

What we attempt to keep from God, He already knows.

God knows every poor choice we have made.
Every lustful thought we have entertained.
Every action we regret.

Nothing is hidden from Him.

Keeping secrets from God is futile—but surrendering them is freeing. Scripture reminds us that the Lord’s eyes are everywhere. He sees the good and the bad, not to condemn us, but to redeem us. Our Heavenly Father invites us to cast every burden, care, and anxiety onto Him, trusting fully in His power to break chains and move mountains.

God knows the words we will speak before we say them.
He knows our thoughts before we think them.
He knows our actions before we take them.

So stop trying to hide—and start surrendering.

Give Him everything.

DAILY CHALLENGE

CONFESS WHAT YOU’VE BEEN HIDING.

Today, take the very thing you’ve been trying to keep secret and bring it honestly before God. Do not filter it. Do not minimize it. Surrender it. Healing begins where secrecy ends.

DAILY PRAYER

Heavenly Father, my thoughts bring shame, and my actions are often followed by guilt. I try to keep these things from You out of fear, yet there is nothing You do not already know. Thank You for meeting me with grace instead of rejection and mercy instead of condemnation. Help me to lay every thought, feeling, and action at Your feet. Guide my heart, my mind, and my spirit in the way of righteousness. In Jesus’ name, amen.

God Bless! 🙏🏿✌🏿💙💪🏿

Joy That Never Fades

For “All flesh is like grass and all its glory like the flower of grass. The grass withers, and the flower falls, but the word of the Lord remains forever.”

1 Peter 1:24-25

The wrapping paper is ripped.
The boxes are open.
The toys are played with, and the anticipation is gone.

Christmas joy has a predictable rhythm. The excitement builds, crescendos, and peaks with the first tear of wrapping paper. But shortly after Christmas Day, that joy begins to fade. Life returns to normal. We enter the new year with new things, yet our old attitudes often remain unchanged.

This is the nature of temporary joy.

The excitement we feel from gifts, moments, and milestones does not last—but we have been given an eternal promise that should anchor our hearts in unshakable gratitude. God’s Kingdom cannot be shaken, and God’s Word remains forever. The birth of Christ and His finished work on the cross can never be nullified, replaced, or taken away.

As the excitement provided by presents fades, we are invited to replace it with gratitude.

Gratitude for grace.
Gratitude for glory.
Gratitude for the promise of everlasting life.

The gifts we receive will age, break, or lose their appeal. But God’s love, His joy, and His glory are endless and eternal. As new things grow old and what once brought exhilaration becomes routine, let us fill our hearts with gratitude and remember this truth: The glory of the Cross never fades!

Daily Challenge

EXCHANGE TEMPORARY JOY FOR ETERNAL GRATITUDE

Today, intentionally thank God for what cannot fade—His Word, His promises, and His finished work on the cross. When something temporary loses its shine, let it remind you to anchor your joy in what lasts forever.

Daily Prayer

Heavenly Father, the joy that comes with receiving gifts on Christmas fades quickly. Once the holiday passes, I am often left with new things, yet old attitudes still remain. Lord, help me replace temporary joy with everlasting gratitude. Your love is eternal. Your joy is unending. Your sacrifice secures my salvation. Thank You for pulling me out of the miry clay and calling me into Your marvelous light. Thank You for all You have done, all You are doing, and all You will do. In Jesus’ mighty name, Amen.

God Bless! 🙏🏿💙💪🏿✌🏿

Make Room

Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?” And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.

Matthew 22:36-37

Christmas is a joyful season. We gather with family and friends, share meals, exchange gifts, and enjoy meaningful moments of fellowship. It is a time marked by love, laughter, and connection. Yet, during this season, our schedules become crowded and distractions multiply.

Our hearts can be full—but not always centered.

Jesus calls us to love the Lord with all our heart, soul, and mind. During the holiday season, that devotion can quietly slip to the margins. Festivities increase while intentional time with Christ decreases. Without realizing it, we can celebrate around Jesus rather than because of Him.

Without Christ, there is no Christmas. There would be no reason to gather, no songs of joy to sing, and no hope worth celebrating. December 25th would be just another day on the calendar.

This Christmas Eve, let this be a reminder:
Make room in your heart for Jesus.

Among the food, the family, and the festivities, pause and remember the greatest gift ever given. Christ humbled Himself, entered our broken world, and made room for us. The least we can do is make room for Him in return.

Daily Challenge

Make intentional room for Jesus today.

Before the celebrations begin, set aside time to pray, read Scripture, or worship—without distractions. Let your heart be anchored in Christ before it is filled with anything else.

Daily Prayer

Heavenly Father, Christmas is filled with joy, but it is also filled with distractions. This year, help me remain focused on the true reason for the season—Your Son. Guard my heart from drifting, and guide it back to a posture of worship and gratitude. Thank You for the sacrifice You made and the gift You gave. Help me not only celebrate family and friends, but to celebrate the greatest gift I have ever received—You. In Jesus’ mighty name, Amen.

God Bless! 🙏🏿✌🏿💙💪🏿

Repentance Is A Requirement

The times of ignorance God overlooked, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent, because he has fixed a day on which he will judge the world in righteousness by a man whom he has appointed; and of this he has given assurance to all by raising him from the dead.

Acts 17:30-31

I’m sorry. I apologize. Please forgive me. These words carry weight when they are sincere and followed by changed behavior. But when someone continues making the same choices while offering empty apologies, frustration is inevitable. True repentance is not a hollow apology or a momentary feeling of regret. Repentance is a change of heart that produces a transformation in behavior.

When we repent, we turn away from sin and refuse to continue walking in the same patterns that once defined us. “Repent and be baptized” is not a suggestion—it is a command. Repentance means the old is washed away, and we are made new in Christ. We cannot bring old mindsets, behaviors, and sinful habits into a new life with Him.

Repentance is not a request. It is a requirement. Obedience to God demands that we lay our former ways at the altar. Sometimes repentance requires difficult decisions—separating from certain influences and reevaluating relationships that lead us back into sin. Jesus was clear when He said that if your hand or foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better to enter life lacking what once tempted you than to be thrown into eternal fire while clinging to what destroys you. Repentance is a requirement, not a request.

Daily Challenge

Today, examine your life honestly and identify any area where you have been apologizing without repenting. Ask God to reveal patterns, relationships, habits, or mindsets that keep pulling you back into sin. Make a decisive move toward obedience—cut off what causes you to stumble, no matter how uncomfortable it feels. Repent fully, turn away completely, and walk forward in the new life Christ has given you.

Daily Prayer

Lord, I know my sin causes separation from You, but the blood You shed on the cross is my propitiation. Your grace and forgiveness are not permission to continue living in sin. Help me flee from my old ways and lead me on the path of righteousness. Renew my mind, transform my life, and make me new in You. Thank You for Your mercy. All glory, honor, and praise belong to You. In Jesus’ name, amen.

God Bless! 🙏🏿✌🏿💙💪🏿

Being Wrong is Alright

All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.

2 Timothy 3:16-17

You must be bad before you can be good, and you must be wrong before you can be right. Learning, developing skills, and gaining wisdom all require being wrong at some point in the process. The only way we are taught is by first becoming students, and students will not always have the correct answer. No one masters anything on the first attempt.

Growth demands consistency, dedication, and discipline, and along the way, mistakes are inevitable. That discomfort is not a sign of failure. It is evidence of formation. Becoming the person God has called you to be will not be easy or comfortable. You will make errors. You will question the path. You will feel unsure at times. Still, you must endure and remain faithful.

Correction is not condemnation, and constructive criticism is not castigation. God corrects those He loves. His reproof is not meant to shame you but to shape you. Mistakes are often the very tools God uses to refine our character and redirect our steps. It is okay to be wrong. We do not know everything, and we were never meant to. Submit your missteps to God, receive His correction, and allow Him to order your steps.

Daily Challenge

Invite correction instead of resisting it.

Today, when you realize you are wrong—or when someone offers correction—pause before defending yourself. Ask God what He is trying to teach you in that moment. Receive the lesson with humility, apply it with intention, and allow correction to shape you rather than discourage you.

Daily Prayer

Heavenly Father, being wrong is uncomfortable. When I make mistakes, my flesh tells me to quit. Lord, help me see that failure is not final, but often part of the growth You are producing in me. Teach me to receive Your correction with humility, knowing it is rooted in Your love. Thank You for Your guidance, Your reproof, and the wisdom You give through every lesson. Shape my heart, order my steps, and refine my character according to Your truth. I give You all glory, honor, and praise, and I pray this in Jesus’ name. Amen.

God Bless! 🙏🏿✌🏿💙💪🏿

Coach Corey

Keep Your Promise

The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance.

2 Peter 3:9

“God, I promise—if You help me beat this charge, I’ll never commit another crime.”

“Lord, get me through this hangover, and I swear I’ll never drink again.”

“God, if You save me from this overdose, I’ll change my life. I’ll get clean. I promise.”

How many promises have we made to God?
And how many of those promises have we actually kept?

In moments of desperation, we cry out to God and make vows we fully intend to keep in that moment. But when the crisis passes and comfort returns, conviction fades. “Just one more time.” “I’ll start tomorrow.” “God understands.” These are not accidents—they are decisions.

God is not like us. He does not delay, forget, or make excuses. Scripture is clear: God keeps every promise. His patience is not permission. His mercy is not approval. His grace is not a license to return to what He already delivered us from.

A promise is a two-way commitment. We call on God when our lives are falling apart, yet when things stabilize, we are quick to take the credit. We forget the prayers we prayed, the tears we cried, and the promises we made when we had nothing left.

Take inventory. Remember every promise you made to God—and remember every time He came through anyway. Stop offering empty words and delayed obedience. Repentance is not regret; it is a change of direction.

God has been faithful. He will remain faithful.
The question is not whether God will keep His promise.
The question is whether you will keep yours.

Daily Challenge

STOP MAKING EMERGENCY PROMISES—START PRACTICING DAILY OBEDIENCE.

Today, identify one promise you have repeatedly made to God. Write it down. Then take one concrete action that proves you are serious about honoring it. Obedience is not proven by words—it is revealed by consistency.

Daily Prayer

Heavenly Father, I have made empty promises in the past. I have come to You in moments of desperation and spoken words I did not fully live out. Forgive me, Lord. Help me to stop offering You promises made in crisis and instead walk in obedience daily. Thank You for Your patience, Your mercy, and for always keeping Your promises, even when I have failed. I love You, Jesus, and I give You all glory, honor, and praise. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

God Bless! 🙏🏿✌🏿💙💪🏿
