Awe of God | Mark 16:3–5 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim Cymbala
Sometimes when God is ready to do something—enrich our lives, give us a fresh revelation of who He is—it's so awesome that it's almost alarming. The fear of God is not scary fear but rather this immense, almost alarming awe. It's like what we’d feel if we came face to face with an angel but a hundred times greater! Let’s stand in awe of who God is!

God Rolls Away Stones | Mark 16:1–3 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim Cymbala
Imagine stones of varying sizes. Let’s call any impediment that blocks us from doing what the Lord wants a “stone.” A small one may be a bad attitude, while a death would be a large one. But whatever blocks we are facing, God can handle. He rolls away stones, no matter how big or small.

What Are You Giving?│Mark 15:42–47 | Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim Cymbala
Jesus gave up His life so we could have the gift of eternity with God. He suffered physical brutality and emotional betrayal from His friends. But some women gave Him their attention, and a man named Joseph gave Him a tomb. They showed Him their love through their giving. What are we giving to Jesus? Can we give Him more? He’s certainly worthy.

What is Spiritual Warfare? | Pastor Jim Cymbala | Tuesday Prayer Meeting | The Brooklyn Tabernacle
Have you been praying for something for a long time and seen no answer? That happened to the prophet Daniel. But it wasn't because God didn't care—it was because spiritual forces were battling in a way that we don't understand. Don't give up! Our strongest weapon against the power of darkness is prayer. We are on the winning side!

Devoted to Jesus | Mark 15:40–41| Daily Devotions | Pastor Jim Cymbala
When we are devoted to Jesus—trusting Him, walking with Him, and leaning on Him for everything—we will never lack what we need. We will never be ashamed or disappointed. May God revive us so that we become totally devoted to Jesus, putting Him and His kingdom first and our own needs second.
