Day 39 "False Goliaths"

November 5, 2024 • Pastor McCall Dwyer • John 7:24

Today’s devotional challenges us to discern between worldly giants and spiritual giants. Are we allowing “false Goliaths” to divert our attention, or are we rising like David to become true spiritual giants? Let’s refocus on God and not be overwhelmed by what appears to be giants in our lives but are actually distractions. Identifying “False Goliaths”: These are the challenges, fears, or distractions that feel overwhelming but are not as powerful as they seem. Recognizing these “false giants” helps us keep our perspective grounded in faith rather than fear. Being a Spiritual Giant: Like David, we’re called to rely on God’s strength and wisdom to confront and overcome. Becoming a spiritual giant involves trusting God over appearances and holding on to His promises. Avoiding Distractions: False Goliaths can pull our focus away from God, making us more vulnerable to doubt. Staying centered on God’s truth is key to maintaining spiritual strength. Action Step: Today, identify any “false Goliaths” you might be facing. Pray for clarity and strength to see beyond appearances and to focus on God’s promises, knowing that true giants of faith stand firm in Him. Let’s take courage, just like David, knowing that our strength comes from God. When we rely on Him and resist the distraction of false giants, we can walk in victory and purpose!

Day 38 "Embracing Process"

November 3, 2024 • Pastor McCall Dwyer • 1 Peter 1:7

Welcome back to Leading and Loving Life with Jesus! Today, McCall Dwyer shares insights from Day 38 of the "100 Days of Believing Bigger" devotional by Marshawn Evans Daniels. Today, we’re diving into the importance of alignment with God’s will as the foundation for our divine assignment. Walking in alignment helps us receive His supernatural wisdom in every situation. This lesson is about trusting God fully, embracing the journey, and letting go of relying only on our own understanding. Key Takeaways: Aligning with God's Will: Realizing that to fulfill the purpose God has for us, our lives must first align with His will. True alignment brings us into a place where we can clearly hear and receive His guidance. Receiving Divine Wisdom: When we trust God wholeheartedly, we open ourselves to His supernatural wisdom. This wisdom is our guide through life’s challenges and decisions. Letting Go of Self-Reliance: Proverbs 3:5-6 encourages us to “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.” Embracing God’s wisdom over our limited perspective is essential to walking in faith.

Day 37 "Birthing Bigger"

October 8, 2024 • Pastor McCall Dwyer • Jeremiah 29:11

Welcome back to Leading and Loving Life with Jesus! In today's devotional, we’re reminded of the importance of keeping our focus on Jesus and allowing God to work within our hearts. God has incredible plans for us, plans that are much bigger than we could imagine—but He is waiting on our step of obedience to bring them to life. We must stand firm on His Truth, walk by faith, and trust God through the process. It’s not always easy, as pruning is required—God removes what no longer serves us so that new growth can flourish in our lives. Key Scripture: Jeremiah 29:11 — "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future." Takeaways: Trust that God has a bigger plan for your life, even when you don’t see it right away. Obedience to His Word is key to unlocking those plans. Allow God to prune away what no longer serves you, so He can grow something new and beautiful. Stand firm on the promises of God and walk by faith in all circumstances. Be encouraged to trust His timing and His process. God’s plans for you are good, and they are waiting on your next step of obedience!
