The Father Is Still Teaching Us | Run Free, Part 5
on September 18th, 2026
Sometimes the deepest work God is doing in a season is not around us, but within us. Hebrews 12 reminds us that a loving Father trains, corrects, and shapes His children so that maturity and righteousness can grow in us. The goal is not simply to get through difficult seasons, but to remain teachable enough to be transformed by them. If you want to grow through what God is allowing in this season instead of merely surviving it, this devotional will encourage you to stay open to the Father’s voice.

The Strength to Endure | Run Free, Part 4
on September 17th, 2026
Not everything difficult is something God is asking us to lay down. Hebrews 12 reminds us that some things are unnecessary weight, while other things are part of the race God has called us to endure. The challenge is learning the difference between ability and assignment so we can steward our strength well and remain faithful without carrying what was never ours. If you are trying to discern what to release and what to keep walking through, this devotional will encourage you to look to Jesus and trust Him for the strength to endure.

Looking Unto Jesus | Run Free, Part 3
on September 16th, 2026
Where we look matters because what holds our attention eventually influences our direction. Hebrews 12 reminds us that healing, release, and moving forward are not ultimately about focusing on what we are leaving behind, but fixing our eyes on Jesus. He is still writing our story, leading us into what is next, and teaching us to run at His pace. If you are tempted to keep looking backward at disappointment, change, or what God has asked you to release, this devotional will encourage you to lift your eyes and keep moving forward with Him.

When Wounds Become Weights | Run Free, Part 2
on September 15th, 2026
Sometimes the things weighing us down began as wounds we never fully allowed God to heal. Pain from the past can quietly shape the way we trust, respond, lead, and relate to others long after the moment itself has passed. Hebrews 12 reminds us that God’s grace is strong enough to heal what has taken root and free us from carrying wounds into the season ahead. If you are ready to let God examine what yesterday’s pain may still be producing in you, this devotional is an invitation to bring it honestly before Him and receive His healing.

Lay Aside the Weight
on September 14th, 2026
What if the thing slowing you down isn’t sinful but simply something God never asked you to carry into this season? Hebrews 12 reminds us that running our race well sometimes begins with laying something down. We can honor where we have been without carrying every responsibility, wound, method, or expectation into where God is leading us next. If you are sensing God inviting you into a new season, this devotional will encourage you to examine what you are carrying and fix your eyes again on Jesus. Read More

Keep Your Heart Tender
on September 11th, 2026
A hardened heart rarely happens all at once. Hebrews 3 warns us that small compromises, delayed obedience, unforgiveness, and unbelief can slowly make us less responsive to God. But every day gives us another opportunity to choose Jesus again—to follow, surrender, obey, and forgive. If you’ve felt distant, distracted, or less sensitive to God’s voice lately, this devotional is an invitation to let Him soften your heart again.
