Fix your eyes on Jesus
Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
- Hebrews 12:1–2
Do you feel like your world is confusing and that you have no hope? Look to Jesus! In Him there is always hope, even in the midst of situations that seem impossible. He overcame temptation, sin, and even death. There is nothing He cannot transform with His power. Read the Bible, learn more about Jesus, and trust in Him. You will see how He will change your life.
With His help, you can break free from the power of sin and overcome the temptations that try to pull you away from His path. In the midst of your struggles, remember that Jesus is:
- Your Savior: “Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.” (Acts 4:12)
- The mighty God: “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.” (John 1:1–3)
- Always the same: “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.” (Hebrews 13:8)
- Your intercessor: “Who then is the one who condemns? No one. Christ Jesus who died more than that, who was raised to life is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us.” (Romans 8:34)
Focus on Jesus, keep your eyes on Him, and enjoy His presence.

Who are you waiting for?
Lord, have mercy on us;
for we put our hope in you!
Be our strength every morning,
our salvation in times of trouble.
- Isaiah 33:2
When we go through difficult and distressing times, we long for someone to reach out a hand and lighten our burden. But in reality, no human being can relieve all anguish or satisfy all the desires of another person. All human beings are imperfect, we have weaknesses and we fail.
God is the only one who can truly understand us and reach the depths of our hearts. Only He can bring peace in the midst of life’s storms and fulfill our deepest desires. You can trust Him completely to help you endure and persevere through distress. He can bring peace to your heart and heal the wounds caused by disappointment and pain.
Whom have I in heaven but you?
And earth has nothing I desire besides you.
My flesh and my heart may fail,
but God is the strength of my heart
and my portion forever.
- Psalm 73:25–26
When you feel like you’re fainting and can’t take it anymore, God can give you new strength and encouragement. Tell Him how you feel and open your heart to receive His comfort and renewal.
He heals the brokenhearted
and binds up their wounds.
- Psalm 147:3
Today, bring your anxieties, desires, and worries to the Lord and wait on Him. He will come to your aid, heal you, and strengthen you!

Day Before Yesterday's Word
Come what may, do not stop obeying!
To Obey is to Love. A good father or mother requires obedience because they know that their instructions and commandments bring blessing and safety to their children. God is the perfect Father; He knows what is best for each one of us. If we listen to His word and obey, we show that we love Him and will be truly happy.
Many things will try to draw you away from obedience and from the blessing the Lord has for you. It’s not always easy, but if we ask, He helps us endure the pressures of the world.
If you love me, keep my commands.
- John 14:15
By saying “If you love me,” Jesus highlights the importance of love as the foundation of a relationship with Him. This love goes beyond a superficial feeling; it is a deep and active commitment. True love for Christ is manifested in obedience to His commandments. Obedience is not an authoritarian imposition, but a voluntary and loving response to the Lord.
Therefore, the message of this verse resounds as a call to action, inviting believers to express their love through obedience, thus building a meaningful relationship with the Savior who is worthy of all love and devotion.
The commandments of Jesus are not mere rules, but guidance that reflects His love, wisdom, and will for our lives. By obeying, Christians demonstrate trust in the sovereignty of Christ and commit to a path of righteousness and holiness. To obey is more than following rules, it is to love God.
Will you give in, or choose to obey?
