Nowhere Else to Go

Jesus preached, and the crowd walked out. He didn't chase them or soften a word. He turned to the Twelve and asked if they were leaving too. Peter knew there was nowhere else to go. And one of the men Jesus chose was a devil. https://thedailyman.org/devotions/john/2026-10-27-nowhere-else-to-go/

(John 6:60-71)

Why Doesn't God Heal Everyone?

God healed the man born blind for His glory. He left Paul's thorn in place for His glory too. Healing is not plan A and sickness plan B. Both come from the same wise Father's hand, and neither one means He lost.

(John 9:1-3, 11:4, 35) (2 Corinthians 12:7-10) (2 Timothy 4:20) (Philippians 2:25-27) (Romans 8:28-29) (1 Corinthians 15:42-44)

His Time, Not Theirs

Jesus' own brothers didn't believe in Him. They gave Him PR advice: get to Jerusalem and put on a show for the world. He told them His time hadn't come. The Father kept the clock, and He kept one for those brothers too. https://thedailyman.org/devotions/john/2026-10-28-his-time-not-theirs/

Is There a Sabbath for Christians?

God rested on the seventh day before there was a Sinai or an Israel. The rest was given for man's good, and Christ's resurrection moved it to the first day. Picture a whole nation stopping together: the roads go quiet, the registers close, families sit at one table, and God takes center stage for a day.

(Genesis 2:2-3) (Exodus 20:8-11) (Mark 2:27-28) (John 20:1, 19, 26) (Acts 20:7) (Revelation 1:10) (Hebrews 4:9-10) (Isaiah 58:13-14)

Which Idols Should Our Kids Smash?

A pastor handed kids hammers to smash statues of Mary. The kids in that room were never going to pray to plaster. They will be tempted by money, applause, power, and people. Smash the wrong idol and you teach the wrong lesson.
