Daily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaNot Afraid to Cry | Psalm 56 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaMany of us don’t like to cry—it might make us feel embarrassed or weak. But the Bible says that tears are a language that God understands. When we cry in our prayers, those tears are so precious to Him that He stores them! Let’s allow the Spirit to move within us as we pray over our families, cities, and nations. 2025-07-1707 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaToo Much Running | Psalms 55 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaIt's easy to do too much ministry and neglect personal time with the Lord. We run around doing this and that but neglect prayer and time in God's Word—and our spiritual energy gets drained. Then we want to run away! Instead of chasing about, let’s run to our Savior today. He will restore our strength. 2025-07-1607 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDon’t Twist My Arm! | Psalm 54 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaWhen a pastor asks people to give, sometimes it's more like guilt-tripping than joyful encouragement. Many church leaders, Christian influencers, and televangelists spread this feeling of coercion about giving. Believers should have no part in that! God loves a cheerful giver—one who gives of his own free will, without coercion. Let’s be free-will givers today. 2025-07-1508 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaWhat Fools Say | Psalm 53 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaAccording to the Bible, only a fool denies God. Yet the world today says, “Everyone is basically good!” It is up to us as believers to stand for the truth. Only God is good! Foolish people will deny and reject Him all day, but we must spread His love and goodness on this earth. 2025-07-1409 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaTrusting | Psalm 52 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaWhen a tree is shaken, sometimes its roots go deeper in the soil. Let's use that picture to think about faith: when ours is shaken, do we dig deeper spiritually? Some Christians bend and sway with the woes of life. But when we are firmly planted in the Word of God and prayer, we will increasingly trust in the Lord. 2025-07-1107 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaA Heart That Pleases God | Psalm 51 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaKing David really messed up! But even after adultery and murder, he didn’t hide from God. He repented of his sin and begged God not only to grant him mercy but also to give him a clean heart. What an example to us! We cannot purify or sustain ourselves—only God can do that. Let’s ask Him today to stir within us hearts that desire to please Him. 2025-07-1008 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaA Courtroom of Thanks | Psalm 50 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaImagine God confronting His people in a courtroom. In Psalm 50 we read of Him doing just that! But He was not condemning His followers to hell—He was calling them unthankful. The psalmist painted this courtroom picture to call believers out for going through the motions—going to church and singing songs but not having thankful hearts. There must be substance to our faith. We should be thanking God every day for His blessings! 2025-07-0908 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaNo Time, No Money | Psalm 49 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaLife is short, and riches are worthless. Doesn’t that go against everything the world tells us? Instead, we Christians must keep eternity in mind! There, time and money are meaningless. Let’s focus today on how to wisely use our resources to make a difference in eternity! 2025-07-0807 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaBound to a Building | Psalm 48 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaIn the days of the Old Testament, God was only reachable through the temple, and the Sabbath was a day set apart wholly for worship. But God is no longer bound to a building. Thanks to His grace and Jesus’ sacrifice, He can be reached anytime, anywhere! We can receive guidance from God at any moment we ask for it. 2025-07-0708 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaLet’s Sing! | Psalm 47 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaWorship today has become so stiff. Where in the Bible does it say to keep your hands still and your voice low when worshiping Almighty God? Nowhere! The Bible says to clap, be joyful, and sing praises to the Lord! Get alone with God today and sing a song of worship. It’s a wonderful way to praise Him! 2025-07-0408 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaWhen Everything Falls Apart | Psalm 46 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaFaith is easy when everything is going our way. But when things fall apart—someone gets sick, a job is lost, the market crashes—do we still rest in Jesus? We should, because God is our refuge and our strength! He is ever-present and helps us when we’re in trouble. Even if the mountains fall into the sea, as the psalmist wrote, we can trust God today and always. 2025-07-0308 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaFake Love | Psalm 45 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaDo we really love God? When we spend mindless hours consuming worldly content that Jesus would hate, we aren’t loving Him very well. We are called to imitate Christ, so we should love what He loves and hate what He hates. We need to inspect ourselves and our choices so we don’t give God fake love! 2025-07-0209 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaWhy Is Life Unfair? | Psalm 44 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaSometimes life isn't fair. So what’s the answer when we ask God “Why?” Martyrs and mistreated apostles surely thought life was unfair, but they knew that their rewards were in heaven, not here on earth. Let’s remember that today too. The Bible says, “If we endure, we will also reign with him” (2 Tim. 2:12, NIV). 2025-07-0109 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaLook for Light! | Psalm 43 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaWhen God shines light on us, everything changes. As we read His Word, it's light—like brightness coming into the darkness of our minds and souls. We can have freedom from discouragement and depression when we look for the light of God’s love and care! Yes, problems come in life, but we know that our Creator will see us through them all. Amen! 2025-06-3007 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaWait for God | Psalm 42 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaOne of the strongest expressions of faith is waiting on the God, even when we don’t see immediate answers to prayers. We can handle the delay, because God wouldn't lie. He made a promise, and He's going to come through. Wait for the breakthrough—don't give up just because the answer hasn't come yet. 2025-06-2708 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaBless the Needy | Psalm 41 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaAmericanized Christianity centers on people with big titles and awards. Doesn’t that sound like idolatry? We’ve shifted our focus from our Creator to whoever has the biggest social following. Yet the Jesus we claim to love and serve turned His attention to the lowly and rejected. He calls us to do the same. We act most like Jesus when we bless those who are in need. 2025-06-2609 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaMore than Praise | Psalms 40 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaThe best kind of worship is not loud singing, raising hands, or exuberant praising—it’s living life fully surrendered to God. We all tend to outwardly display praise and worship that’s only surface level. But God is after our hearts. To yield to Him and surrender to His will is more meaningful than singing the highest praises. We have to surrender all to Jesus. 2025-06-2507 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaOnly One Life | Psalm 39 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaOur days are numbered. Some may view that as a morbid thought, but really, it should remind us that every breath is a gift! We only get one life, and we aren’t even promised tomorrow. We have to make every moment matter for Jesus. Let’s remember the old adage, “Only one life, 'twill soon be past. Only what’s done for Christ will last.” 2025-06-2407 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaGuilt Can Be Good | Psalm 38 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaGod gave us a sense of right and wrong, and He gave us the feelings of guilt or conviction when we do wrong. Guilt can be a good thing! Pangs of conviction from the Holy Spirit are God's way of telling us, “I love you. Don't do that.” We don’t have to live feeling guilt-ridden and condemned. But we can acknowledge our sins when we sense God’s holy conviction. 2025-06-2308 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDo Good! | Psalm 37 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaThe Bible offers very simple steps for us to enjoy peace and prosperity: trust in the Lord, do good, and stay where the Lord has put us. Then we see His goodness! Why would we want to stray away from such fulfillment and safety? God protects His children. Let’s put these commands to action and see what blessings come from it. 2025-06-2008 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaLet in Light | Psalm 36 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaWe can have 20/20 vision physically but be blind in our hearts. When we don’t choose to see God’s goodness and mercy, we stumble around spiritually—hurting ourselves and others in the process. But when we let in the light of Jesus, everything changes! We can clearly see that He has a plan, and He provides abundance. In the light of God, we can see light for life. 2025-06-1908 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaGod Fights for You | Psalm 35 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaMany psalms are worshipful, but some reflect a writer who was disheartened. King David was often in the trenches of spiritual warfare. Why would God allow such despondency in the Bible? Because it shows us that our first instinct should be to run to God. He hears our prayers and understands our tears. The Lord fights our battles for us! Let’s pour out our cares to God and let Him handle everything. 2025-06-1809 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaExalt the Lord! | Psalm 34 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaGod is not a doctrine—He's a person we can know. We can receive His grace, and His Holy Spirit can live inside us. That's why we should be praising and exalting Him at all times. He is worthy of it! To exalt the Lord is good for our souls—we’re never spiritually healthier than when we praise Him. 2025-06-1707 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaHope Not in Things | Psalm 33 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaWhat makes us feel safe in this turbulent world? Many of us place our hope for security in things like savings accounts, militaries, trust funds, and careers. But really, our hope should be in Jesus! He is the provider of everything we need and want—especially those things that make us feel safe. “My hope is in You.” Say that to God today. He loves to hear it! 2025-06-1607 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaForgiven Guilt | Psalm 32 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaHas the hand of the Lord ever felt heavy on your life? When we sin and don’t repent, it feels almost oppressive. But David the psalmist wrote, “Blessed is the one whose transgressions are forgiven.” If you are saved, all your sin and guilt are forgiven! We can be blessed and happy when we confess our sins to our loving Father. Let’s live in that truth today. 2025-06-1308 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaHelp! | Psalm 31 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaOne of the greatest, shortest prayers is “Help!” God already knows about our need—He understands the reality of our situations better than we do. He's just waiting for us to ask for help. The strength of prayer is not in its eloquence or the number of words. It's in the intensity and desperation of the heart that reaches out to God. 2025-06-1208 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaSeasons of Life | Psalm 30 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaLife has different seasons—sometimes we're on the mount of rejoicing and victory, other times we're going through valleys and discouragement. Even as Christians, we go through tribulations and trials. But God brings us through! The reward is that much richer when we trust Him through the hard times. So don’t lose hope in the lows. God’s going to get you out. 2025-06-1107 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaListen for His Voice | Psalm 29 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaGod talks to us today—that’s not just an Old Testament thing! While He no longer uses booming thunder or billowing smoke, the voice of God is still present. It is small but powerful. We feel Him uplifting our spirits when we’re discouraged. We hear Him through the inspired words others share with us. God wants to speak to you—listen closely for His voice today. 2025-06-1007 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaWorship Honestly | Psalm 28 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaJesus is worthy of hearts-open, hands-raised, all-out worship. But so often we hold back because of what we’ve been taught or what others may think of us. We present ourselves one way in church but act differently once we walk out of the sanctuary doors. Let’s be genuine and honest in every aspect of our lives—not just in worship—and honor the One who saved us. 2025-06-0908 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaIn His Presence | Psalm 27 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaMore can happen in five minutes of God’s presence than in two hours of church proceedings. A spiritually-minded person doesn’t need fancy words or nice religious activities—he just wants the presence of God. Let’s open up and let God in today. Commune with Him, see His beauty, and feel His peace. 2025-06-0608 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaHave Good Company | Psalm 26 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaWho we spend time with matters. We as Christians are called to be examples to the lost, but if we're going to do that, we cannot allow the world to affect us. We need to love others without being influenced by them. Let's ask God for wisdom today—to make us blessings to those who don't know Him while not letting bad company corrupt our morals and grieve the Holy Spirit. 2025-06-0508 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaBe Humble! | Psalm 25 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaHumility is an under-appreciated virtue today. But God lifts up the humble! Jesus was the humblest person to live, even though He had no sins to humble Him. He set the example for us, as His humility came from emptying Himself and totally depending on God the Father. We are nothing, and we have nothing. Let's be lowly, like Jesus, knowing that God everything in our lives comes from God. 2025-06-0408 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaAsk for His Presence | Psalm 24 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaDo we have to do certain things or live particular lifestyles in order to be Christians? No. We are saved by grace. But if we want to enjoy intimacy and closeness with God in His presence—we can't be habitually practicing sin. Every day we must go to God and ask for cleansing and a fresh renewing of His presence. Let's do it today. 2025-06-0307 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaGoodness and Mercy | Psalm 23 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaOne of the most famous psalms tells us that goodness and mercy will follow us all days of our lives and we will live in God's house forever. What a promise! We can see those blessings running behind us and know that we are heading toward eternity with our Savior. Let’s rest in the Lord’s goodness and mercy today. 2025-06-0206 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaGod’s Throne of Praise | Psalm 22 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaWe are never in a stronger spiritual position than when we’re resting on God by faith and praising Him. A complaining spirit, bitterness, anger—these don’t create an atmosphere for God to work. Praise is what the Word of God says to do if we want to make God happy. It’s not about what we’re comfortable with. God sits on a throne of praise. Let’s lift Him up today! 2025-05-3008 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaGod Is Our Strength | Psalm 21 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaWe do not succeed in life by our own strength. Even David, the great king of Israel, acknowledged this! The psalmist wrote that the king rejoiced in the Lord’s strength—not his own. He faced the day and his battles with God. Whatever we will face today, God is our strength. Knowing that is truly living by faith. 2025-05-2908 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaWho Do You Trust? | Psalm 20 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaSometimes we're greatly tempted to look away from God—to stop trusting Him for answers, for our needs, for rescue. Our problems seem too big. We find other things to trust with our money, kids, and worries. But Christians should put their trust in the name of the Lord. Our Redeemer is faithful and true—whatever He says, He will do! 2025-05-2807 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaSweeter than Honey | Psalm 19 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaHow precious is the Bible to you? The psalmist wrote that the Word of God is perfect, trustworthy, right, radiant, pure, and firm. It should be more important to us than riches and sweeter than honey. When we take this outlook toward God’s Word, we begin to meditate on it in a way that is pleasing to the Lord. Our attitude will minister to others! 2025-05-2707 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaHold God’s Hand | Psalm 18 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaMany times in life we face devastating circumstances that leave us wondering, “Why, God?” We know He has a plan, but we don’t get all the answers right now. When we can't see His face or understand exactly what He's doing, we can still hold His hand. Praise God, on the other side of the trial, we can look back and see how He was working all along. 2025-05-2608 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaLet God Defend You | Psalm 17 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymalaAre you trying to fight your own battles today? God sees what is right and will vindicate us when we trust Him. Instead of defending ourselves, we can rest, knowing that God will handle things better than we ever could. The world may reward itself now—but our true reward is eternal, with Christ. 2025-05-2307 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDelight in Godly Friends | Psalm 16 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaWho do you spend the most time with? We should value godly people who inspire and sharpen our faith. Are your closest friends lifting you closer to Jesus today? Let’s choose companions who encourage us to walk faithfully with the Lord. 2025-05-2207 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaTame Your Tongue | Psalm 15 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaHow do your words affect others? Walking with God means speaking truth and avoiding slander. Our words can either bring life or cause harm. Let’s ask God to help us use our tongues to bless others and stay close to Him. 2025-05-2108 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaCalling on God | Psalm 14 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaAre you aware of how much you need God today? We’re all broken without Him—but He hears us when we call on Him. He alone provides everything we need, from strength to salvation. Let’s be people of prayer. 2025-05-2008 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaHow Long, Lord? | Psalm 13 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaHave you ever asked God, “How long?” You're not alone. Psalm 13 captures the ache of waiting—but it also shows us the turnaround that happens when we remember God's unfailing love. Even when it feels like God is hiding, He’s not. Trust in His love—it's the one thing that never moves. 2025-05-1907 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaFlawless Words | Psalm 12 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaEvery day we have faith that the chairs we sit in won’t break. They might creak and wobble, but we rarely question whether they will hold. If we trust chairs with our physical stability, can’t we trust God with our lives? Psalm 12:6 says, “The words of the Lord are flawless.” We can rest all the weight of our needs on the surety of God’s Word! 2025-05-1608 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaOur God Reigns | Psalm 11 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaGod is on the throne, and He will have the final word. It's hard to be confident in that when it seems like everyone is against us. But our God is a sovereign ruler. We have no reason to lie awake at night wondering what others think of us—that won't matter in eternity. God is on our side. People may hurt us, but God will never fail us. 2025-05-1508 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaThink About It! | Psalm 10 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaWicked people are full of pride, cockiness, and self-assurance—they are against God and His goodness. Christians are called to be different! Let's not think about ourselves. Instead, let's think about our almighty, loving Creator God! Every breath we have comes from Him. Let's live for the Lord. 2025-05-1408 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDon’t Be Half-Baked | Psalm 9 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaDoes anyone enjoy a half-baked cake? No! In the same way, the Lord doesn’t want us to be "half-baked" Christians—people who serve Him half-heartedly. The psalmist encourages us to pray, study, worship with all our hearts! Isn’t God worthy of that? He is. 2025-05-1307 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaEyes on Jesus | Psalm 8 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaIf we look at politics and news all day, we will become depressed. Instead, we should focus on the One who came to save us—Jesus! We don’t have to look at people. Instead, we can keep our eyes on Jesus, who is our future. 2025-05-1208 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaLet God Vindicate | Psalm 7 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaHatred is everywhere, every day. Revenge seems so sweet, right? No! As Christians, we have to let God handle everything. We should pause and think, "Do we want God to vindicate and protect us, or do we want to handle things ourselves?" Whatever situations we find ourselves in, we can say, “God, You take care of it. Be my vindication.” He'll do it! 2025-05-0909 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaWait Well | Psalm 6 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaHow long should we wait for God to answer our prayers? Haven’t we all felt like begging Him to hurry up? Waiting is the hardest part of faith. But God has His reasons. He is full of wisdom, and He knows what's best for us. Let's not move on and make matters worse when God wants us to wait. 2025-05-0807 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaRejoicing Through Sorrow | Psalm 5 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaLife can make us sorrowful. The joy of the Lord, however, lives in our hearts. These two polar opposites can exist within us at the same time. How? Circumstances fluctuate, but Jesus never changes. He is our joy! We always have a reason for living—praising the Lord who is the source of all our comfort and joy. 2025-05-0707 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaThe Best Father | Psalm 4 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaOne of the privileges of being in God’s family is being able to talk to our Father and know that He hears us. No matter what kind of father we've had on earth—alcoholic, abusive, neglectful, or loving and present—we have the best as our heavenly Father. Let’s praise Him for that. We have a Father in heaven who loves us unendingly! 2025-05-0607 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaGod Is Our Shield | Psalm 3 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaAre you feeling discouraged or like life has no purpose? Call on God. He didn’t create us to walk around brooding and despondent. The Lord is our shield against attacks of discouragement. He lifts our heads so we can focus on His power when we call on Him! 2025-05-0507 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaOne True Ruler | Psalm 2 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim CymbalaElections, dictators, and policies are all stressful elements of today’s news! But we have one true leader, and His name is Jesus. Governments may go against God, but they plot in vain. The Lord will have the final say on everything. Praise God that we Christians serve the living King. We are on the winning side! 2025-05-0207 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaFirmly Rooted | Psalm 1 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim Cymbala“Blessed” in the Bible means “happy.” The first Psalm tells us that a blessed person has a relationship with the Lord. When we are close with our Creator, our spiritual lives becomes like trees—sturdy, rooted, living. The choice we have to make every day is to pursue that close and rooted relationship with God. 2025-05-0107 minDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaDaily Devotions with Pastor Jim CymbalaA Psalm a Day—Join Us May 1!We’re excited to invite you to something new starting this Thursday, May 1!
