Happy Monday!

Welcome to a brand new week. Every day, God has fresh mercies for you. He loves you dearly and has great plans for your life! He wants you to be healthy and whole so you can enjoy and fulfill those plans. I want to share two passages with you today.

Proverbs 4:20-22 (NKJV) says, “My son, give attention to my words; Incline your ear to my sayings. Do not let them depart from your eyes; Keep them in the midst of your heart; For they [are] life to those who find them, And health to all their flesh.”

The word for health in verse 22 is also translated as medicine. In Proverbs 3:5-8, the Scripture says, “Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths. Do not be wise in your own eyes; Fear the LORD and depart from evil. It will be health to your flesh, And strength to your bones.”

When we examine the two passages, we see God’s Word is medicine for us and His ways bring healing to us. How do we receive the benefits of the healing and medicine? We read God’s Word everyday and live according to His Word. As we do, we are getting healthier and stronger. As we do, we are positioning ourselves to be led by the Spirit so we can become healthier in every area of our lives.

We are jumping for joy in June. In today’s devotional podcast, I share more about the healing benefits God has for you and why you should rejoice. Stream it. You need to hear it and apply it. Share it with someone you know that needs to hear it and be encouraged.

I am praying for you! Remember to pray the daily prayer for 2026. After you pray the daily prayer, as I shared above, pause and take time to listen. Always remember, prayer is not complete until you take time to listen.

We are reading through the Bible this year. Today’s reading plan is located at the bottom of this newsletter. If you want a pdf print out of the plan, click here.

I am the salt of the earth. I am the light of this world. Jesus said it so I believe it. I am a carrier of the Glory of God. Today, I will experience the extreme goodness of God. Today, I make myself available for God to show His goodness to others through me.  Today, I am increasing in influence. Today, I will see the goodness of God in my life! Today, something good is going to happen to me so I expect miracles. 

We are reading through the Books of Joshua & Judges in May. Today, read Joshua 15 & 16.
