When "60 Minutes" calls the situation at the border "unprecedented‚" you know it has to be bad. A shocking video shot at an unofficial crossing point near San Diego by the CBS show's crew illustrated how easy it is for migrants to enter the country through a gap in the...

Woke leftists spot hatred everywhere except in their own minds‚ where it festers most conspicuously. Notwithstanding their cognitive dissonance and relentless screeching about oppression‚ they in fact constitute modern society's most privileged people. At least now we know‚ however‚ that even that kind of privilege has its limits. According to...

For Chris Sununu‚ it was a real lesson‚ in real time‚ in reality. The same New Hampshire governor whose endorsement apparently meant squat in the Granite State's presidential primary got a taste Friday night of what's almost certainly coming. And it came compliments of HBO's Bill Maher. Sununu is a...

How You Can Be Fulfilled in Every Way …in Christ you have been brought to fullness. He is the head over every power and authority. – Colossians 2:10 Boris Becker‚ the famous tennis star‚ was at the very top of the tennis world. Yet despite all of his success‚ he was on the brink of suicide. He was quoted as saying‚ "I was rich. I had all the material possessions I needed. It's the old song of movie stars and pop stars who commit suicide. They have everything‚ and yet they are so unhappy. I had no inner peace. I was a puppet on a string." You don't have to read many biographies to find this very same kind of frustration and disappointment. The famous author Jack Higgins‚ for example‚ was asked what he would like to have known as a boy. His answer: "That when you get to the top‚ there's nothing there." There are so many people today who believe that if they can simply do this or that‚ then their lives will be fulfilled. Yet they're sorely disappointed when they reach their goal and discover that the view from the top isn't as great as they thought it would be. Maybe you thought your life at this stage would be better or more exciting than it has been. Many may have even grown cynical about life itself because they've decided it's not what it should be. The solution to this problem is to look to Christ‚ not the world‚ to fulfill you. He is the one who gives you fullness and the only remedy to any emptiness you feel inside! Prayer Challenge: Ask God to change your perspective from looking to the world for fulfillment to finding your fullness in Christ alone.

A Prayer to Fight against the Work of the EnemyBy Emma Danzey "Dear friends‚ although I was eager to write you about the salvation we share‚ I found it necessary to write‚ appealing to you to contend for the faith that was delivered to the saints once for all." – Jude 3 It can seem like a mountain-sized challenge to fight against the work of the enemy each day. We can be tempted to ignore the spiritual battle taking place out of fear or indifference. We can fix our eyes on the temporary instead of the eternal. Jude 3 reminds us to contend or struggle for the faith. We are called to step up and lean into the power of God's Spirit to live out His fruits of the Spirit each day. When I was growing up‚ people would say‚ "You might be the only Bible someone ever reads." As we present the truths of the Word in our speech and conduct‚ we recognize that we need the Lord's help. We are sinful and do not represent Christ well much of the time. However‚ when we live by His Spirit‚ we can do this in a way that honors Him well and communicates the message of the gospel effectively. Let’s pray: Dear Jesus‚We need you today. Help us to be aware of the spiritual forces working against us. Yet‚ help us to remember 1 Corinthians 15:57‚ which says‚ "but thanks be to God‚ who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ." Thank You for already giving us the victory in Jesus. Would you enable us to wrestle well today? When we are in the midst of the battle‚ may we remember that You have won the war. When we are weary and tired of praying‚ would you convict us and speak for us? When we are sickened by the ways of the culture around us and burdened for them‚ remind us of Your working power of love and salvation for all who believe in You. Jesus‚ help us not to be led by judgmental or harsh attitudes. Give us hearts of compassion and gentleness towards others as we stand up for what we know to be true. Enable us to learn‚ memorize‚ and remember Your Scriptures. You say in 2 Timothy 3:16-17 that "All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching‚ rebuking‚ correcting and training in righteousness‚ so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work." God‚ use Your Words to empower and enable me in all of these ways. Motivate me to read it‚ ponder it‚ and share it. Convict me when I am tempted to hide Your Word and not share it with others. Open up opportunities to share about the hope that I have in You. God‚ please grow me in the areas of trust that I am lacking. Lift me up out of the places where I am stagnant or in a pit. Help me to press into the struggle against the enemy and not stand by passively. Give me the words to talk into a hateful culture where there is anger and bitterness towards You. Enable me to speak life and love into that. Guide me with a kind and compassionate demeanor even when others are angry or unkind. Remind me of Your strength in Your approach to many who did not like You or what You had to say. Help me not to be a people pleaser but a Christ follower. Where I have stepped out of the fight by fear of man‚ push me back into the ring and give me the ability to wrestle well. I cannot do this on my own strength. You say in Philippians 2:16‚ "As you hold firmly to the word of life. And then I will be able to boast on the day of Christ that I did not run or labor in vain." Help my work for You and my witness and apologetics for You‚ not to be in pride or in vain. Keep me humble and pure before You as I speak and live in a time where many have fallen away from the truth of the gospel message and the Word of God. Amen.

With the support of my spouse and the active power of the Holy Spirit‚ I have been able to make huge progress in not letting fear overtake me when uncertainty enters our life.

It can seem like a mountain-sized challenge to fight against the work of the enemy each day. We can be tempted to ignore the spiritual battle taking place out of fear or indifference. We can fix our eyes on the temporary instead of the eternal.
