Seasons with God

As we continue our series allowing God to prepare us for the new year, today we’re going to look at the promise of God that we can do all things in his strength. My hope is that we’re filled with courage and hope today for what God can and will do in us as we make space to live and work in him in this new year.Double your gift to First15More from First15Read today's devotional or listen to today's worship song at First15.org/todayDownload the First15 appDonate to First15 at supportfirst15.orgShare a testimony or feedback at [email protected] to First15Check out our new Guided Prayers podcast - Subscribe for new episodes every Monday!First15 is a brand of Denison Ministries.

As we continue our series, allowing God to prepare us as the new year approaches, today we’ll make space for God to create new beginnings in our lives. Every one of us needs a new beginning in some way, a fresh start in some area of our life. And this season heading into the new year is a perfect time to allow God to fill us with new life. May you get a real sense of redemption and grace today as we seek the heart of God together.Double your gift to First15More from First15Read today's devotional or listen to today's worship song at First15.org/todayDownload the First15 appDonate to First15 at supportfirst15.orgShare a testimony or feedback at [email protected] to First15Check out our new Guided Prayers podcast - Subscribe for new episodes every Monday!First15 is a brand of Denison Ministries.

As this year comes to a close, it’s vital that we take time to both reflect on what God has done and allow him to prepare us for what’s to come. A new year marks a fresh opportunity to center our lives around the goodness of God. I pray that as you begin looking toward what is to come you will make space to gain God’s perspective, ground your hopes and pursuits on his grace, and celebrate all that God has done and is doing. May your time with God this week be filled with the loving presence of your heavenly Father.Double your gift to First15More from First15Read today's devotional or listen to today's worship song at First15.org/todayDownload the First15 appDonate to First15 at supportfirst15.orgShare a testimony or feedback at [email protected] to First15Check out our new Guided Prayers podcast - Subscribe for new episodes every Monday!First15 is a brand of Denison Ministries.

In today’s First15 we’ll be celebrating Christmas, Christ come for you and me, by allowing the reality of his coming to fill our hearts with overflowing joy. Whatever is happening in your life today, there is joy to be found in the reality that Christ came for you, wants to make his presence known in your life, and that he will come again. May your heart be filled with joy this Christmas day.More from First15Read today's devotional or listen to today's worship song at First15.org/todayDownload the First15 appDonate to First15 at supportfirst15.orgShare a testimony or feedback at [email protected] to First15Check out our new Guided Prayers podcast - Subscribe for new episodes every Monday!First15 is a brand of Denison Ministries.

It’s easy during the Christmas season to get so caught up in the busyness and gifts that we forget the immense sacrifice Jesus made to dwell with us. The truth is that Jesus gave of himself joyfully so that we may experience the beauty of God with us. So across the next two days we’ll both celebrate and reflect on the joyful reality of Christmas. May this time together help us center our celebrations around the goodness of Emmanuel, God with us. On this wonderful Christmas Eve let’s take a moment to reflect on the heart of Jesus.More from First15Read today's devotional or listen to today's worship song at First15.org/todayDownload the First15 appDonate to First15 at supportfirst15.orgShare a testimony or feedback at [email protected] to First15Check out our new Guided Prayers podcast - Subscribe for new episodes every Monday!First15 is a brand of Denison Ministries.

Yesterday, in the first day of our Christmas series, we explored the incarnation of Christ, that in ways beyond the coming of Jesus God has and continues to fill and dwell among us.Today let’s explore a facet of Christ’s incarnation–what it means for us to be interdependent with God and each other. And how in interdependence, in seeing ourselves more through the lens of relationship, we find true abundant life.Double your gift to First15More from First15Read today's devotional or listen to today's worship song at First15.org/todayDownload the First15 appDonate to First15 at supportfirst15.orgShare a testimony or feedback at [email protected] to First15Check out our new Guided Prayers podcast - Subscribe for new episodes every Monday!First15 is a brand of Denison Ministries.

Christmas is a time where we as believers celebrate God’s heart to write himself into our story. Prior to Jesus we had no real picture of God’s love. All we had to know him by was through stories of old and commandments written into law. But only in Jesus was a pathway created whereby we could walk in intimacy with the Father again. Only in Jesus was the veil torn allowing God’s manifest presence into the earth. We owe all that we have to Jesus. We owe all that we have to Christmas. May these days be filled with joyful worship as we celebrate our newborn King.Double your gift to First15More from First15Read today's devotional or listen to today's worship song at First15.org/todayDownload the First15 appDonate to First15 at supportfirst15.orgShare a testimony or feedback at [email protected] to First15Check out our new Guided Prayers podcast - Subscribe for new episodes every Monday!First15 is a brand of Denison Ministries.

As we end our week looking to Jesus, today we’ll explore one of my favorite aspects of his nature: his humility. Jesus, the King of all the earth, the one who has every reason to boast and show his power, chooses the path of humility, of submission, of lowering himself. We have so much to learn from this beautiful King. It is my hope that you are encouraged and challenged today. But also that your heart is burst open and flooded with worship at the beauty of our Jesus.Double your gift to First15More from First15Read today's devotional or listen to today's worship song at First15.org/todayDownload the First15 appDonate to First15 at supportfirst15.orgShare a testimony or feedback at [email protected] to First15Check out our new Guided Prayers podcast - Subscribe for new episodes every Monday!First15 is a brand of Denison Ministries.

As we begin to wrap up our week celebrating Jesus our King, today we’ll celebrate the justice of God. What does it mean for God to be just? Does that stir up fear in you or peace? As we take a closer look at what God’s justice means for us, I pray you are filled with immense gratitude and worship today. God has looked on us with so much love. And Jesus, our just King, has done so much on our behalf.More from First15Read today's devotional or listen to today's worship song at First15.org/todayDownload the First15 appDonate to First15 at supportfirst15.orgShare a testimony or feedback at [email protected] to First15Check out our new Guided Prayers podcast - Subscribe for new episodes every Monday!First15 is a brand of Denison Ministries.

We have spent this week looking at different aspects of Christ’s kingship. Today we’ll explore how the Lord is merciful in nature toward us and the world. May you come to treasure the mercy of God in your life as we take time today to explore it. He is truly so good to us, and it is fitting for us to celebrate him in all of his goodness.Double your gift to First15More from First15Read today's devotional or listen to today's worship song at First15.org/todayDownload the First15 appDonate to First15 at supportfirst15.orgShare a testimony or feedback at [email protected] to First15Check out our new Guided Prayers podcast - Subscribe for new episodes every Monday!First15 is a brand of Denison Ministries.
