Wednesday Word: “Practice the Presence of God In Your Insecurities” – Pastor Faith Eury Cho

I have to share this Wednesday Word with y’all from Pastor Faith Eury Cho because it’s so relevant to me right now. I pray someone else is encouraged to follow God from this one, even in the middle of some tough assignments.

In this clip, Pastor Faith shares the importance of always remembering God is with us even as we struggle with our own insecurities or limitations. And particularly when God has given us a specific assignment. In the midst of scary or new situations, our natural first thoughts are to look inward at what we can or can’t do. But in this video, Pastor Faith reminds us why we need to be looking up to God instead!

GODFIRMATION: You Matter to God

“When I look at Your heavens, the work of Your fingers,
    the moon and the stars, which You have set in place,
 what is man that You are mindful of him,
    and the son of man that You care for him?”

Psalm 8:3-4 (English Standard Version)

As we kick off another new week, let’s start with a Godfirmation to encourage us — this one coming from Psalm 8:3-4.

I love the book of Psalms, many of which were written by David, who vulnerably pours his heart out to God in a lot of wild circumstances. In a good bit of his writings, David also gives praise and glory to God for the works of His hands, including in Psalm 8. The great hymn of the church, “How Great Thou Art,” was even inspired by Psalm 8. In this particular passage, David praises God as the Creator of the heavens and the earth. He also is in awe that this incredible Creator still thinks and cares about our lives!

Gospel Jam: “A New Thing”- Madison Ryann Ward

“This feels like a new thing, Holy Spirit moving…With You, there’s no losing hope or my mind.

This feels like a true thing. Your love introducing me, so I can leave the past behind…”

I LOVE music, dancing, and vibing out (as you will soon see!), including Christian and gospel music. I will certainly share my favorite songs on Imperfectly B.

I have especially enjoyed finding and hearing new Christian artists lately. Right now, one of those new artists that I love is Madison Ryann Ward! Her music is a beautiful blend of R&B and gospel and her voice is so soothing. So I thought it was fitting to share one of her songs as a Gospel Jam this morning.

Her latest project, “A New Thing,” has been on repeat for the longest, and the title track is one that is very reflective of the revamp of this site.

Wednesday Word: “You Have to Build Intimacy with God to Hear His Voice”-Pastor Jerry Flowers, Jr.

This Wednesday Word is from Pastor Jerry Flowers, Jr., lead pastor at Time of Celebration Ministries Church based in Houston, Texas. He preached a sermon a little while ago on how to handle when God says, “NO” to our plans, desires, or dreams.

However, in order to hear and obey that “NO,” we have to know God’s voice in the first place. And the only way to know that is through actually knowing and being close to God in the first place.

How To Study The Bible Beyond Devotional Reading

I wanted to share a guide on studying the Bible beyond just reading devotionals. For those of y’all who don’t like to read, I’m gonna need y’all to start! BUT there is a RECAP at the bottom of this page.

I preface this by saying that there are great devotionals out there, which can really be helpful for a breakdown of smaller passages. You can certainly still read those. I still have a few great ones on my bookcase that I’ll share soon! However, in my current season, I have preferred having more historical background and context beyond just a few verses, so I can work on knowing and applying the Word correctly.
