The Power of God’s Word and a Relationship With Jesus

There is something life-changing about spending time in Scripture—not out of religion, but out of relationship. When we open the Bible, we aren’t just reading words. We are being shaped, strengthened, and transformed by the living Word of God.

Research from the Center for Bible Engagement (often referred to as the “Power of 4”) found that people who engage with Scripture four or more days per week experience significant differences in life outcomes, while those who engage one to three days per week showed minimal measurable change.

Results often cited for those engaging Scripture 4+ days per week include:
30% lower loneliness
32% lower anger issues
40% less bitterness in relationships
57% less alcoholism
60% less spiritual stagnation
61% less exposure to po*******hy
200–230% increases in faith-sharing and discipleship
407% more likely to memorize Scripture

This isn’t about checking a box. This is about the truth that a personal relationship with Jesus changes everything. When you spend time with Him consistently, your heart changes, your mind renews, your desires shift, and your life begins to reflect His presence.

“Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.” — Psalm 119:105

If you’re looking for a fresh start, deeper peace, or spiritual strength, start small. Even five minutes. Even one chapter. Even one Psalm. Just show up, and let Jesus meet you there.

What an honor and privilege it was to stand before such an incredible group of clergy—men who serve God and His people with humility, strength, and unwavering faith. 🙌🏾 I’m truly grateful for your leadership, your sacrifice, your prayers, and the way you continue to show up for others day after day.

Today I shared a Faith Community Nurse reminder that your health matters too—body, mind, and soul. Because the work you do is sacred, and you deserve to be cared for as you care for so many.

A few small daily practices that can make a big difference:
🟡 Stand and stretch between meetings or visits
🟡 Take 3 slow breaths and relax your shoulders when stress rises
🟡 Add 1-minute movement “snacks” (marching, sit-to-stands, squats) throughout the day
🟡 Pray while you walk (“Lord, order my steps”)
🟡 Drink water before caffeine and choose one nourishing meal
🟡 Protect rest and give yourself permission to recover—rest is holy

Thank you to every pastor who serves faithfully. God sees you. ❤️
