In today’s heartfelt devotional, Annie Yorty shares the touching story of her loyal dog, Misha, whose devotion to her offers a living illustration of what it means to stay close to God’s Spirit. Just as Misha shadowed her every move—never straying far—so too are we invited to abide in the presence of the Holy Spirit, seeking God's will and resting in His love. Drawing from Galatians 5:25, Annie reminds us that walking in step with God is more than a quiet metaphor—it’s a daily, intentional choice to live under the guidance and care of our ever-present Helper.

A Prayer for Revival in the Church

6/17/2025
The Church was never meant to be stagnant, divided, or distracted. In this urgent and inspiring devotional, Victoria Riollano shares her perspective as a pastor’s wife and spiritual leader, reminding us that revival doesn’t begin in a building—it begins in the hearts of believers. Too often, churches are caught in petty divisions or cultural debates, losing sight of the Great Commission. Drawing from Matthew 28:19-20, Victoria calls the Church back to its original mission: to go, make disciples, and teach the truth of the Gospel. True revival demands action, humility, and a renewed commitment to live and proclaim the good news of Jesus. Revival is possible—but it starts with us. 📝 Main Takeaways The Church is in desperate need of spiritual revival—not programs, but people fully surrendered to Christ. Jesus' Great Commission (Matthew 28:19–20) isn’t a suggestion—it’s a command to go, teach, and disciple. Revival begins with the individual believer who is willing to boldly live out and share their faith. Our focus must shift from preferences and performance to presence and purpose in Christ. 📖 Bible Verses Referenced Matthew 28:19-20 – “Go and make disciples of all nations…” Psalm 85:6 – “Will you not revive us again, that your people may rejoice in you?” 🙌 Calls to Action Subscribe to Your Daily Prayer for daily gospel-centered encouragement.
