Gal. 6:9
Neh. 8:10
This Memorial Day, we honor the brave souls who gave everything in service to our country. Their courage, sacrifice, and unwavering commitment to freedom will never be forgotten.
At JGM, we stand in gratitude for the heroes who laid down their lives for something greater than themselves — for their country, their families, and for all of us.
May we live each day in a way that honors their legacy.
Jesus knew no sin (2 Cor. 5:21), but He paid the ultimate price for transgressions He never committed, sins that were not His own. Jesus was the perfect and final sacrificial lamb.
He did it willingly. He did it freely. He was obedient to His Father to the very end.
The Son of God sacrificed Himself for you so you could be reconciled to the Father.
This is God’s gift to you. Have you accepted His gift?
Every good and perfect gift comes from above. (James 1:17)
And because God so loved the world, (John 3:16)
He sent His Son to redeem us all so that we can receive adoption to sonship. (Gal. 4:4-5)
So the Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us. (John 1:14)
Our Savior was born in the town of David. He is the Messiah, the Lord. (Luke 2:11)
He is called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace, (Isa. 9:6)
The Lamb of God Who took away the sins of the world. (John 1:29)
Yes, God saved us all because of His mercy. (Titus 3:4-6)
Therefore, we rejoice and have joy and exultant delight over His birth. (Luke 1:14)
Lord, help us have Your perspective on all things. Let us not forget Your selfless and loving act in sending Your Son to redeem us all.
May our desire for You burn brightly. Help us grow in our relationship with You so there is no distinguishing where we end and You begin.
We love You, Lord. Fill our hearts and homes with gladness, in...
Pentecost is one of the Lord’s appointed feasts—a time of thanksgiving for the harvest and a reminder of God’s provision and faithfulness (Lev. 23; Num. 28:26-31).
Fifty days after Christ’s crucifixion and resurrection, the Day of Pentecost was fulfilled as God poured out His Spirit just as He promised through the prophet Joel (Joel 2:28-32). Tongues of fire appeared, the followers of Jesus were filled with the Holy Spirit, and they began speaking in other tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance.
People from many nations witnessed this moment and were amazed to hear the mighty works of God declared in their own languages (Acts 2). Pentecost stands as a powerful reminder that God keeps His promises and empowers His people through His Spirit.
Our God is the same God who poured out His Spirit at Pentecost and is still moving and working on behalf of His children today. Hallelujah!
