Greetings all! I hope that this email finds you well. Great things are happening at FaithPointe! Expect New Things, forget the former and move forward into what God has for you. "It is God's will for you to be blessed!" 

 

Weekly Devotion: John 20:22: And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and said unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost."

Have you ever felt unsure of what comes next, standing at a crossroads with fear whispering doubts into your heart?

 

The disciples were in that exact place. They had followed Jesus faithfully, only to watch Him die a brutal death. They locked themselves in a room, weighed it down by uncertainty and fear. But then, Jesus appeared. He didn't chastise them for hiding or doubting--He greeted them with peace. What a comfort to know that Jesus meets us in our fears, offering calm and reassurance. What fears are holding you back from stepping forward in faith today?

 

After revealing His scars, Jesus did something unusual--He breathed on them. That breath wasn't just air: it was Life. He gave them the Holy Spirit, empowering them to move from frightened followers to bold witnesses of His resurrection. Jesus wasn't sending them out in their own strength: He was giving them His presence, guidance, and power through the Spirit. 

 

We often feel we need to have it all figured out before taking the next step, but God equips us in real-time. Just as He breathed life into Adam, Jesus breathed new life into His disciples and us. His Spirit equips us for the calling ahead, even when we feel unprepared. Where might God call you to trust in His breath of life today? 

 

Reflection: Take a quiet moment today to reflect on the areas of your life where you feel tired, uncertain, or afraid. Invite the Holy Spirit to breathe fresh life into those spaces. Whether you're facing a new season, a difficult decision, or stepping into an unfamiliar role, remember that you are not doing it alone. God's presence goes with you, guiding and empowering you each step of the way.
