Bad Company Corrupts Good Character (Devotional)

One Vision, Many Blessings | Joshua 1 Devotional on Obedience, Faith, and God's Purpose

What happens when one person says yes to God's calling? In this powerful Christian devotional based on Joshua 1:1-2, we explore how God often places a vision in the heart of one obedient servant so that many others can experience His blessings. From Noah building the ark, to Abraham leaving his homeland, to Joshua crossing the Jordan River, Scripture reveals a consistent pattern: God gives the vision. The servant obeys. Many receive the blessing. Drawing from a recent experience at Glenhagen Farm Retreat and the work of the Mersades Ann Foundation, this devotional reminds us that many of the opportunities and blessings we enjoy today exist because someone obeyed God yesterday. Most importantly, we discover that the greatest Jordan River is the separation that sin creates between us and God, and that Jesus Christ alone makes a way for us to cross from death to life through His perfect obedience, His death on the cross, and His resurrection. If you're waiting for the perfect circumstances before serving God, this message is for you.

Satan Disguises Himself as an Angel of Light | How to Recognize the Enemy's Deception | 2 Corinthians 11:14-15

Have you ever been drawn to something that looked good, only to discover it led to regret and pain? The enemy rarely presents temptation as something obviously evil. Instead, he often disguises it as success, pleasure, opportunity, or acceptance. In this From Wrong to Strong Ministries Devotional, Cisco Terrazas examines 2 Corinthians 11:14-15, where Scripture warns that Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. Through practical examples and biblical truth, this devotional challenges us to recognize the enemy's deception, guard our hearts, and seek God's wisdom in every decision. We are also reminded that not every poor choice is the direct work of the enemy. We must take responsibility for our own actions and continually ask God for discernment, humility, and strength to walk in obedience. No matter what mistakes you have made, there is hope in Jesus Christ. God's grace is available to all who repent, trust in Him, and follow the narrow path that leads to life.

What Do You Want? | The First Words of Jesus in John

In this devotional, Omar Calvillo from From Wrong to Strong Ministries reflects on the first recorded words of Jesus in the Gospel of John: “What do you want?” “What do you seek?” (John 1:38) Before miracles, sermons, or commands, Jesus asks a heart-searching question that still confronts us today. Why are we following Him? What are we truly seeking? Through John 1:38-43, this devotional explores how Jesus invites us into relationship before revealing the full journey. Many times we want clarity before surrender and answers before obedience, but Jesus simply says: “Come and see.” “Follow me.” This message is a reminder that faith is often built one step at a time by walking with Jesus, trusting Him even when we cannot see the full picture. Whether you are searching for peace, purpose, healing, direction, or a deeper relationship with God, this devotional will encourage you to seek not only answers from Jesus, but Jesus Himself.

Bad Company Corrupts Good Character (Devotional)

In this devotional, Cisco Terrazas challenges us to examine the influence of the people around us and how it shapes our identity. “Bad company corrupts good character.” That’s more than just a saying, it’s a spiritual truth. Drawing from 1 Corinthians 9:19–23, we see how the Apostle Paul engaged with different people to share the gospel without compromising who he was in Christ. He built trust, met people where they were, but never allowed their lifestyle to define him. This message speaks directly to: *  the influence of friendships and environments  *  the tension between reaching others and staying rooted in Christ  *  the importance of knowing your identity in Jesus  Before coming to Christ, many of us were shaped by the people around us. But now, our identity is found in Him. The question is:  Are you influencing others… or being influenced?
