ARE YOU PREPARED We seem to panic and prepare for storms or other situations of life, but are you prepared to meet the Lord? Mark 13:31-33 31 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away. 32 But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father. 33 Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is. Intro Music By: Mike Outland
HE’S WAITING FOR YOUR CALL Jeremiah 29:12–13 “Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you. And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.” I love how these verses show how personal God makes the relationship. He doesn’t begin with commands or conditions, He begins with a simple conversation. “Then shall ye call upon me…” God invites us to start by simply calling His name. Not with perfect words or polished prayers…. Just a call from your heart. Intro Music By: Mike Outland
JUST STAY ON THE PATH Psalm 119:105 “Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.” This is a verse that speaks tome because it speaks of real life, not the life where everything is planned out perfectly, but the life where we’re often taking one step at a time, and many times unsure of what’s coming next. God’s Word is described as both a lamp and a light, and those two words carry slightly different meanings that matter more than we sometimes realize. Intro Music By: Mike Outland
HE’S STILL DOING THAT FOR ME Hebrews 13:8 — “Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.” This morning in sour time with the Lord, He reminds us that not everything changes. Life certainly does, Seasons come and go. People grow up, drift away, life brings Joy one day, and disappointment the next. Even we change—our perspectives, our confidence, and at times our faith even has different levels. But Hebrews 13:8 reminds us of a truth: Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

Well Done For Right Now Matthew 25:21 21 His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. When we hear Matthew 25:21, our minds often go straight to heaven. We picture the end of life, standing before the Lord, and hearing those words we all long to hear: “Well done.” And one day, that will be a glorious and very real moment. But this verse isn’t only about the end of the journey. It’s also about the middle of it. It’s about right now. Intro Music By: Mike Outland
THE PATH GOD PLANNED FOR YOU Psalm 16:11 “Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.” Spiritual freedom is not found in escaping responsibility, avoiding pain, or finally getting our way. True freedom is found when God shows us the path of life. Not a shortcut. Not a detour. But a path that’s steady, intentional, and guided by His hand. Intro Music By: Eddie B. Woodard
The Boldness We Need Boldness is often misunderstood. In our world, boldness is usually associated with being loud, forceful, or confident in oneself. But biblical boldness is something altogether different. True boldness does not rise from ego or self-assurance, it flows from the quiet confidence that God is with us. Scripture reminds us this morning in Psalm 27:1, “The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?” . Boldness begins when fear no longer has the final word in our situations. Not because we are strong, but because our Gos is, and He is always with us. Intro Music By: Mike Outland
UNLESS GOD GOES WITH ME Exodus 33:15 reminds us that true direction, peace, and purpose are found only in God’s presence. When Moses declared, “If thy presence go not with me, carry us not up hence,” he acknowledged a powerful truth: progress without God is empty. This verse speaks to every believer who desires to walk in obedience rather than self-reliance. It teaches that success, movement, and even good intentions mean nothing if God is not leading the way. Exodus 33:15 calls us to pause, seek God’s presence, and refuse to move forward unless He goes with us. In a world driven by speed and ambition, this scripture anchors the heart in surrender, trust, and spiritual dependence—choosing God’s presence over every opportunity, plan, or promise. Intro Music By: Mike Outland
A SPIRIT GOD NEVER GIVES YOU 2 Timothy 1:7 “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” One of the most misunderstood things in the Christian life for many at least, is Spiritual Warfare. Here we see that a spirit is being offered, but it is not from God. That is the entire concept of Spiritual Warfare. Daily we are offered certain things that will dictate the direction of our day. Here we see it is the spirit of fear. Intro Music By: Mike Outland
The Mind of Christ 1 Corinthians 2:16 “For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.” There are days when my thoughts feel noisy—pulled in too many directions at once. Decisions stack up, emotions weigh heavy, and the world seems determined to shape how I think. In moments like that, this verse gently calls me back to something deeper, something steadier: we have the mind of Christ. Intro Music By: Mike Outland
Listening for the Right Wind 1 John 4:1 “Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God…” There are moments when I sit outside my house and watch the pine trees that line the yard. Most days they stand tall and steady, but every once in a while the wind picks up. When a straight wind blows through, every tree bends the same way. They may sway, but they agree. They move together. There is order to it. But when the wind starts swirling, it’s a different story. One tree leans east, another west. Branches twist. Needles shake. Nothing feels settled. Nothing feels clear. That kind of wind brings movement, but not direction. John tells us in 1 John 4:1 not to believe every spirit, but to test them, to discern whether they are truly from God.

Abounding Grace 2 Corinthians 9:8 “And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work.” There is something deeply comforting in the words “God is able.” Not that God might provide, or could provide, but that He is able to provide. Paul reminds us that God is not limited by our circumstances, our resources, or even our understanding. He is fully capable of making all Grace abound toward us. Abound means to overflow, to be in great supply, or to increase beyond what is merely enough. Intro Music By: Mike Outland
New Album Available — “From Where I Am” I am excited to release a new album titled, “From Where I Am”. So much of the heart behind this project flows from the spirit of “This Is The Life”. Those front porch moments where faith meets everyday living… where we slow down, breathe in God’s goodness, reflect on where we’ve been, and look forward with hope to what lies ahead. All Songs written and Composed By: Eddie B. Woodard Intro Music By: Mike Outland
THE FREEDOM TO SLOW DOWN Today we continue together on “The Journey to Spiritual Freedom.” Spiritual freedom is not usually found in one specific moment—it is formed through our daily choices. One of the most important choices is when we meet with Jesus. There is something sacred about the early morning. Before the noise starts. Before the weight of the day presses in. Before the world tells us who we need to be and what burdens we need to carry. Romans 6:16 16 Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
WHERE REAL FREEDOM BEGINS As we step into a New Year, many of us are hoping for freedom—from worry, guilt, fear, anxiety, regret, past mistakes, emotional heaviness, feeling overwhelmed, or feeling stuck in spiritual ruts. We long to breathe again. We long to live lighter. We long to feel joy that lasts. That longing is real—but Scripture reminds us where that kind of freedom truly comes from.
The Journey To Spiritual Freedom John 8:31–36 As we step into a brand-new year, many of us think about fresh starts, better habits, and new goals. But beyond resolutions and plans, the greatest gift God offers us is the chance to walk in real spiritual freedom. A new year is a reminder that God is not finished with us. He still leads. He still restores. And He still sets His people free.

FROM WHERE I AM There are times when we ask God, “Will I ever get to You from where I am?” But God is Faithful to lead us and comfort us with His Peace as we find our way to His divine plan. Music Written and Composed By: Eddie B. Woodard
LIFE CAN’T BREAK ME This inspirational devotion compares the strength of bending trees in a storm to our lives when rooted in Christ. Through wind and pressure, we may bend but will not break. With scriptures like 2 Corinthians 4:8-9 and Isaiah 43:2 (KJV), be reminded that God is your strength in every season. Declare with confidence: “Life may shake me, but it can’t break me.” Music By: Mike Outland
