Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from 1 Timothy 1:3. The world today is full of people “speaking their truth.” If everyone has their own “truth,” then how are we supposed to know what’s really true? There is only one absolute truth—Jesus Christ. Through the Bible, we find out about the truth so that we can be able to identify false doctrines. Let’s pray for discernment today and lean on what we know is true.
Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from the book of 1 Timothy. In this devotional, Pastor Cymbala introduces Paul’s letter to a very important young pastor. He provides context for the book and reminds us that the church is the body of Christ. It’s not good if a part of your body is in disrepair! We need to get involved in our local churches, like Timothy needed to, and strengthen the body of believers.
Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from 2 Corinthians 7:5–6. The Bible is filled with honest accounts of fragile people like us. In a letter he wrote, the apostle Paul shared how a friend had comforted him. What a difference a little comfort and encouragement can make! May we all seek to be uplifting Christian friends instead of spirit-drainers.
Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from 150. In this devotional, we see the emphasis on praise in the final psalm. We have so many reasons and ways to praise our Lord, and He’s worthy of them all! But if we’re honest, how often do we praise objects and people other than God? All those things can disappear in the blink of an eye, but our worship of God endures forever. Let’s praise the Lord today!
Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from Psalm 149. In this devotional, Pastor Cymbala emphasizes the danger of pride. Pride is the disease of being a terminal know-it-all. But humility is the opposite—humble people appreciate and value correction. God says that He hates pride but will lift up the humble. With the Holy Spirit’s help, we must humbly lower ourselves so that God can raise us up.
Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from Psalm 148. God is so generous—He shares His love, peace, and power with us daily! But there is one thing God will never share with anyone else: His glory. After all, He is the Creator of the universe! So instead of lifting up ourselves or powerful people in the world, let’s glorify the only One truly worthy of being magnified.
Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from Psalm 147. In this devotional, Pastor Cymbala encourages us to put our trust in the love of God—there is nothing more powerful! His love is unfailing, and it will never disappoint. If we lean against a table and trust it to hold us, there’s a chance it will fail us. But the love of God is immovable. Trust in Him, and see His love in action!
Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from Psalm 146. So many voices claim to speak truth—influencers, religious leaders, politicians all try to sway us. But only one Person can give us true peace. We have to place our hope and trust in the Lord Jesus! The more we listen to Him, the quieter the distractions around us become. Let’s shift our focus to our God today and every day.
Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from Psalm 145. In this devotional, Pastor Cymbala encourages us to have compassion. The world right now is so full of disgusting hatred and division—people are even celebrating the death of those they disagree with. Now, more than ever, we Christians must rely on the Holy Spirit so we can reflect the love of Jesus!
Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from Psalm 144. Our lives are quick and fleeting, like a vapor. Yet the Almighty Creator God knows everything about us. He is the one true Lord of all, and He cares more about us than any other part of creation. God gives us so much mercy—when we realize that, we’ll want to serve Him however we can!
Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from Psalm 143. In this devotional, Pastor Cymbala reminds us to pray for everything—especially urgent matters! God is always answering prayers, and He is always in control. We have pressing needs in life, like for food and monetary provision. But we are never alone when emergencies hit. Take it all to God in prayer!
Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from Psalm 142. What’s keeping you in a spiritual prison—fear, anger, jealousy, greed? So many of us live physically free but are held captive by strongholds. But in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, we can be set free! God wants us living for Him—freely and unbound. Let’s ask Him today to set us free from our spiritual shackles!
Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from Psalm 141. In this devotional, Pastor Cymbala encourages us to receive godly correction. Most of us don’t like to be chided or admonished. Many people say that if someone corrects them, they must not love them .But it’s the opposite! It's because God loves us that He gives us chastisement, or correction. A wise person will receive that and change his or her words or behavior. Today let’s pray for the wisdom to welcome correction from our heavenly Father.
Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from Psalm 140. Our words have the power to give life or death. In a world full of social media rampages, we’ve all seen the tragedies that venomous words can cause. Why do we feel the need to tear others down when we could lift them up instead? One day we will be judged by God for every word we’ve ever said. We must seek the Lord and be filled with His Spirit so that our words can be sweet, not poisonous.
Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from Psalm 139. In this devotional, Pastor Cymbala talks about a couple of the most encouraging verses in the Bible. There is no darkness to God—He sees every hurt, heartbreak, and hidden sin. We can hide nothing from Him. How beautiful it is that God loves us through our darkest moments!
Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from Psalm 138. Many people speculate about what humility is. Some say the weight of our sin is what keeps Christians humble. But actually, Jesus giving us kindness and mercy instead of the judgment we deserve for our sins makes us want to have humility! Let’s pray to be empty of ourselves so that we can be full of God.
Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from Psalm 137. In this devotional, Pastor Cymbala encourages us to have fellowship with the Lord. Remember when you first got saved? As we get older and move past that initial day of salvation, many of us lose our joy—the songs in our hearts dry up because of lost fellowship with God! We can never lose relationship with Him, but we sometimes slip out of fellowship. Let’s restore fellowship with Jesus today and sing a song of praise!
Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from Luke 2:22–32. In this devotional, Pastor Cymbala reminds us of the importance of the Holy Spirit. Christianity is based on the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ our Lord. But we can’t worship and serve Him without the power and influence of the third member of the Trinity—the Holy Spirit. Let’s pray to be Spirit-filled Christians, today and every day. Our relationships with Christ will be far better for it!
Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from Luke 2:8–15. Many people are searching for peace. Some try meditation, others seek peace through substances. These worldly “solutions” just lead to numbness. There’s one real way to have inner peace—Jesus Christ. When everything around us gets loud and busy, let’s remember that the Prince of Peace is always by our sides.
Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from Matthew 2:19–23. In this devotional, we are reminded of the birthplace of Jesus—a dirty feeding trough in “Nowheresville.” Yet, like every other part of His life, Jesus’ humble earthly beginnings show us a wonderful truth about God—He cares about the broken, poor, and needy. He doesn’t just save the wealthy and privileged. Jesus was born, crucified, and resurrected for all of us. Hallelujah!
