DDD: Benevolence Without Big Brother

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/]

Give me 7+ Minutes on your drive into work today  What if the same power that raised Jesus from the dead walked with you into every meeting, every post, every conversation today ? What if your ‘wins’ weren’t about numbers, but about what Christ is actually doing through you in the public square ? In a world obsessed with self-promotion, discover what it means to boast only in God, abide in the true Vine, and bear real, lasting fruit.

DDD: Breath in the Valley of Bones

Give me 7+ Minutes on your drive into work today  Imagine standing in a valley filled with dry bones—no life, no hope—then watching God breathe a nation back from the grave. Ezekiel saw it in a vision; we’re watching it unfold in our generation. From the Holocaust’s horror to Israel’s rebirth in 1948, God’s faithfulness is written in history and in Scripture. So what does that mean for your faith, your future, and these last days?  This devotional from Pastor Brian walks through Ezekiel 37’s valley of dry bones, connecting the prophet’s vision to Israel’s modern rebirth as a nation after the Holocaust and the events of May 14, 1948. It emphasizes Israel as living proof of God’s covenant faithfulness, the uniting of the northern and southern kingdoms, and the gathering of Jews back to their own land. The message highlights that many elements of Ezekiel 36–37 are unfolding in our time and urges listeners to recognize that we are living in the last days. It closes with a call to pray for both Jews and Gentiles to know Jesus as Messiah, to share the gospel boldly, and to stand for biblical values in the public square  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/]
