DDD: Striving Together: Prayer That Changes Our Public Square

Give me 7+ Minutes on your drive into work today  What if a million believers prayed every day for our leaders by name—governor, president, pastors, and parents—asking God not just to bless them, but to save them and anchor them in His truth? What if revival started in the halls of power and flowed all the way down to your neighborhood, your workplace, your church? In this devotional, we unpack why Scripture commands us to strive together in prayer and how that kind of united intercession can transform hearts before it ever changes policies. Lean in and discover why praying for “all who are in authority” is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior  This devotional from Pastor Brian calls believers to “strive together in prayer,” drawing from Romans 15 and 1 Timothy 2 to show that praying for all people—and especially those in authority—is both commanded and pleasing to God. Pastor Brian Noble urges listeners to intercede for Governor Bob Ferguson, President Trump, and every level of leadership, not only for wisdom and health, but for genuine salvation and a deep knowledge of God’s truth. He argues that without changed hearts and a biblical worldview, policies will drift away from God’s will, affecting issues from taxation to life, family, and public morality. The episode ends with a call to united prayer and Spirit-led action, envisioning revival that reshapes Washington from the inside out.  Donate Today - https://fpiw.bndlr.co/ [https://fpiw.bndlr.co/]  TAKE ACTION Don’t Just talk about it - DOWNLOAD The “WASHINGTON DEFENDER APP” today https://fpiw.org/washington-defender-app/ [https://fpiw.org/washington-defender-app/]

DDD: Not a Victim: Walking in the Fullness of Christ

Give me 7+ Minutes on your drive into work today  Culture keeps telling you that you’re a victim—defined by your past, your pain, your skin color, your zip code. But Scripture declares something radically different: in Christ, you are full, complete, and alive. Every sin, every injustice, every label has been nailed to the cross, and the fullness of Jesus Christ now dwells in you. So stop living half-empty and start walking into the public square as the victorious warrior God already says you are.  This devotional from Pastor Brian reminds believers that in Christ they are full, complete, and no longer victims of their past, their identity, or their circumstances. Drawing from Romans 15 and Colossians 2, it emphasizes that the fullness of Christ dwells in us, our sins are nailed to the cross, and we are made alive together with Him. It warns against being taken captive by worldly philosophies and identity politics that keep people in victimhood so they can be controlled. Instead, it calls Christians across Washington State and beyond to enter the public square as Spirit-filled, victorious warriors who joyfully steward church, work, and government because their hope is in Christ alone.  Donate Today - https://fpiw.bndlr.co/ [https://fpiw.bndlr.co/]  TAKE ACTION Don’t Just talk about it - DOWNLOAD The “WASHINGTON DEFENDER APP” today https://fpiw.org/washington-defender-app/ [https://fpiw.org/washington-defender-app/]

DDD: Benevolence Without Big Brother

Give me 7+ Minutes on your drive into work today  We’ve handed our hurting neighbors to the government—and it’s breaking both lives and systems. What if Scripture says the poor, the addicted, the widow, and the orphan are your responsibility—yours, your family’s, and your church’s—not the state’s? When grace comes down, joy rises up and real generosity starts to flow, one person, one act of love at a time. If you’re tired of broken programs and want a biblical path to real change, this message will challenge you to step in.  This devotional from Pastor Brian argues that, biblically, benevolence belongs to individuals, families, and churches—not the government. Drawing from Romans 15 and 2 Corinthians 8, it connects spiritual grace to material generosity and calls believers to take personal responsibility for the poor, addicted, widows, and orphans. It warns that state-run charity often enables addiction and dysfunction, while customized, relational care from God’s people leads to transformation. The message ends with a prayer of repentance and a call to raise up ministries and nonprofits that give freely, from the heart, instead of by government mandate.  Donate Today - https://fpiw.bndlr.co/ [https://fpiw.bndlr.co/]  TAKE ACTION Don’t Just talk about it - DOWNLOAD The “WASHINGTON DEFENDER APP” today https://fpiw.org/washington-defender-app/ [https://fpiw.org/washington-defender-app/]

DDD: Strategically Placed: Your Holy Ambition in 2026

Give me 7+ Minutes on your drive into work today  You are not in Washington State by accident—you are strategically placed in 2026 for such a time as this. What if your everyday stops at Costco, Starbucks, and the workplace became mission fields for the unreached? Our policy crisis is really a heart crisis, and Jesus Christ is the only One who can transform hearts from the inside out. Today, step beyond your comfort zone and let God use you to bring light, love, and salt into the public square.  This devotional from Pastor Brian encourages embracing a “holy ambition” to share Jesus wherever they go—workplaces, parks, stores, and every corner of the public square. Drawing on Romans 15 and the simple gospel of Christ’s death, burial, resurrection, and appearance, it urges Christians to testify to what Christ has accomplished in their lives. Pastor Brian Noble highlights that Washington’s policy problems are ultimately heart problems, pointing to declining rates of professing Christ followers and the urgent need for repentance and spiritual renewal. The prayer covers President Trump, Governor Ferguson, and leaders at every level, asking God to bring conviction, repentance, and salvation across parties and communities, and then sends listeners out to “defend and advance” biblical values in public.  Donate Today - https://fpiw.bndlr.co/ [https://fpiw.bndlr.co/]  TAKE ACTION Don’t Just talk about it - DOWNLOAD The “WASHINGTON DEFENDER APP” today https://fpiw.org/washington-defender-app/ [https://fpiw.org/washington-defender-app/]
