    Are You Choosing Friends Like Daniel Did?

    Are you choosing friends like Daniel did? In this Words From The Word devotion, Pastor Roderick Webster opens Daniel 1:6-7 and Daniel 2:17 (KJV) to show us what kind of companions the young Hebrew captive Daniel surrounded himself with — and why it matters deeply for your own walk with God. You might be asking: Does it really matter who my friends are as long as I stay strong? Can the people around me actually change who I am? What does the Bible say about Christian fellowship and accountability? How do I find friends who will help me grow in faith? Key points from this devotion: - Daniel chose Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah — fellow believers with God-honoring names and convictions - The world tried to rename and reshape these young men, but they held firm to their identity in God - Spending time with someone long enough means things will rub off on you, for better or worse - You need friends who are as strong or stronger than you in the faith - The church exists so believers can fellowship and encourage one another toward godly living Like this video, leave a comment, share it with someone who needs encouragement, and subscribe so you never miss a devotion. #WordsFromTheWord #KJV #BibleDevotion #ChristianLiving #GoodNewsBaptistChurch Stay connected with GNBC: 🌐 Website: www.gnbcnetwork.org CHAPTERS: 0:00 Opening 0:53 Dare to Be a Daniel 1:16 The Importance of Choosing Companions 2:18 Scripture Reading: Daniel 1:6-7 2:53 Scripture Reading: Daniel 2:17 3:22 The Meaning of Their Hebrew Names 4:38 The Power of Christian Fellowship 7:32 Closing Exhortation

    Are You Daring to Be a Daniel in Today's World?

    Are you daring to be a Daniel in today's world? In this episode of Words From The Word, Pastor Roderick Webster draws from Daniel chapter 1 and 2 Corinthians 6, using the King James Version, to challenge believers to live a separated, uncompromising life for God. You might be asking: Why did Daniel refuse the king's food? What does it mean to purpose something in your heart? Is God really calling me to be different from the world around me?

Key points from this devotion: - Daniel purposed in his heart not to defile himself, even before sitting at the king's table - The king's food was devoted to idols, and to eat it was to honor those idols - God calls believers to come out from among the ungodly and touch not the unclean thing - Our bodies are the temple of the living God, and He dwells and walks in us - One day we will stand before God and give an account of how we represented Him on earth If this devotion encouraged you, please like, leave a comment below, share this video with a friend, and subscribe so you never miss a word. #WordsFromTheWord #KJV #BibleDevotion #ChristianLiving #HolySpirit Stay connected with GNBC: 🌐 Website: www.gnbcnetwork.org CHAPTERS: 0:00 Opening Prayer and Praise 0:40 Dare to Be a Daniel 1:21 Daniel Chapter 1 Scripture Reading 2:31 Daniel's Purpose of Heart 2:52 Daniel Refuses Idolatrous Food 4:23 Keep Your Heart with All Diligence 4:51 No Fellowship with Devils 5:35 Living a Separated Life 6:42 Be Not Unequally Yoked 8:07 We Are the Temple of God 9:27 Closing Exhortation and Prayer

    Are you willing to stand alone for the Lord like Daniel did? In this devotion from Daniel chapter 1 (KJV), Pastor Roderick Webster of Good News Baptist Church brings a timely word from his series Words From The Word about what it truly means to purpose in your heart not to defile yourself in a world that is pulling believers away from holy living. You might be asking — Why does it feel so hard to live differently from the world around me? How can one decision in my heart make such a difference in my life? What does it mean that Daniel was called a man greatly beloved? Can God really use someone like me if I choose to stand for Him? Key points from this episode: - Daniel purposed in his heart not to defile himself with the king's meat or wine - God responded to Daniel's commitment by giving him favor, knowledge, and wisdom - At the end of ten days, Daniel and his friends were fairer and healthier than all the others - The king found Daniel and his companions ten times better than the best in the realm - Daniel is called a man greatly beloved by God — not once, but repeatedly If this devotion blessed you, please like, leave a comment below, share this with a friend or family member, and subscribe so you never miss a word from the Word. #WordsFromTheWord #KJV #BibleDevotion #ChristianLiving #GoodNewsBaptistChurch Stay connected with GNBC: 🌐 Website: www.gnbcnetwork.org CHAPTERS: 0:00 Opening 0:23 The Call to Stand for the Lord 1:22 Dare to Be a Daniel 2:02 Scripture Reading — Daniel Chapter 1 6:31 Daniel: A Man Greatly Beloved 8:50 What Made Daniel Better Than the Best 9:48 Application and Closing Prayer

    When Conflict Separates You, Do You Know What to Do?

    When conflict separates you from the people you love and the work you know God has called you to, do you know what to do? In this closing episode of the conflict series from Words From The Word, Pastor Roderick Webster draws from 2 Timothy 3:5-7, Colossians 2:5, and Colossians 1:28-29 (KJV) to remind us that separation does not have to mean surrender. You might be asking — What do I do when I cannot be with the people I am praying for? What do I do when ministry feels impossible? Can God still use me when everything has changed? What do I do when I feel like quitting? Here is what this devotion will show you: - Paul was in prison but never stopped caring for those he could not reach in person - Separation — whether physical, relational, or circumstantial — does not cancel your calling - The only thing that perfects believers is the Word of God, and we must keep preaching it - When you feel like quitting, tag your partner — the Lord Jesus Christ - Your prayers for loved ones are never in vain in the Lord If this series has blessed you, share it with someone who is facing a season of conflict and needs this reminder today.

    Are You Being Fooled by False Teaching?

    Are you being fooled by false teaching without even knowing it? In this Words From The Word devotion, Pastor Roderick Webster opens Colossians chapter 2 verses 2 through 4 in the King James Version to show us what the Apostle Paul prayed for the church — and what he warned them about. You might be asking — Why did Paul pray so urgently for people he wasn't even physically with? What does it mean to be enriched, established, and enlightened in the faith? How can Satan disguise himself so convincingly? And what does it look like when people have itching ears today? Key points from this devotion: - Paul prayed that believers would be enriched in understanding, established in maturity, and enlightened in the knowledge of Christ - All the treasures of wisdom and knowledge are hidden in Christ alone - Satan transforms himself into an angel of light and uses false teachers to mislead God's people - The days of itching ears are here — people are turning from sound doctrine to what they want to hear - The cults are busy while believers are hiding — we must not help Satan by being passive or uninformed If this devotion encouraged you, please like, leave a comment, share it with someone who needs it, and subscribe so you never miss a word from the Word. #WordsFromTheWord #KJV #BibleDevotion #ChristianLiving #GoodNewsBaptistChurch Stay connected with GNBC: 🌐 Website: www.gnbcnetwork.org CHAPTERS: 0:00 Opening Hymn — Living for Jesus 0:34 Introduction to Colossians 2 0:58 Scripture Reading — Colossians 2:2-3 1:28 Paul's Three Prayers for the Church 2:32 All Wisdom Is Hidden in Christ 2:58 Ephesians 1 — Spirit of Wisdom and Revelation 4:50 The Situation — Danger of False Doctrine 5:36 Satan Disguised as an Angel of Light 7:26 Itching Ears Warning — 2 Timothy 4 9:10 Closing Exhortation — Stay Alert 9:46 Closing Blessing

    Are You Sure You're Safe in Christ?

    Are you sure you are safe in Christ? In this episode of Words From The Word, Pastor Roderick Webster of Good News Baptist Church in Sint Maarten opens Colossians 2:2 in the KJV to unpack the Apostle Paul's powerful prayer for believers — a prayer not for money or material things, but for something far greater: the full assurance of understanding. You might be asking — what does it mean to be complete in Christ? Or maybe you wonder, can a person really know they have eternal life? Perhaps you have been living with uncertainty about where you stand with God. Or maybe you already believe but have never fully grasped how richly blessed you already are as a child of God. In this devotion, Pastor Roderick Webster walks us through three key truths: - Believers are already blessed with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ (Ephesians 1:3) - We are complete in Him — lacking nothing spiritually (Colossians 2:9-10) - The Word of God gives us full assurance of faith and eternal life (1 John 5:13, Hebrews 10:22) If you have never trusted Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, today is the day. Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

    Are You Discouraged? Here's What Paul Prayed For You

    Are you discouraged and wondering if anyone truly loves you or prays for you? In today's Words From The Word devotion, Pastor Roderick Webster continues the series on the great conflict Paul faced as a leader — and shares what Paul prayed for the believers he could not physically reach. Drawing from Colossians 2:2-3 and Colossians 1:9 (KJV), Pastor Roderick Webster unpacks the significance of Paul's prayer and what it reveals about the spiritual battles we face today. You might be asking yourself: - Why does discouragement hit so hard, even in the church? - Is it possible to love someone who keeps pushing me away? - Why does unity matter so much to Satan's plan against us? - What does it mean to be "knit together in love"? Key points from this devotion: - Discouragement is the first weapon Satan uses against immature believers - Paul prayed specifically and consistently — not vaguely — for those he loved - Satan's goal is to isolate us from love; God's goal is to unite us in it - Love is reciprocal — and those hardest to love often need it most - John 13:35 reminds us that love is the mark of true discipleship If this devotion encouraged you, please like, leave a comment, share it with someone who needs it, and subscribe so you never miss a word. #WordsFromTheWord #KJV #BibleDevotion #ChristianLiving #GoodNewsBaptistChurch Stay connected with GNBC: 🌐 Website: www.gnbcnetwork.org CHAPTERS: 0:00 Opening 0:39 Hymn: Living for Jesus 1:12 Review: The Great Conflict 1:47 Scripture: Colossians 2:2-3 2:57 Pray Before You Try to Solve It 3:54 What Paul's Prayers Looked Like 5:31 Discouragement: Satan's First Weapon 6:27 The Power of Being United in Love 8:54 Closing Prayer and Blessing

    Are You Growing After Salvation? The Conflict Leaders Face

    Are you truly growing after salvation, or have you settled for just being saved? In this devotion from Colossians 2 and 2 Timothy 2 (KJV), Pastor Roderick Webster of Good News Baptist Church digs into what he calls the great conflict of the leader — the deep burden Paul carried for believers who needed to move beyond salvation into spiritual maturity. You might be asking: Is being saved enough, or is God calling me to grow deeper? Why does the Bible compare the Christian life to a soldier, an athlete, and a farmer? What does it mean to strive lawfully for the crown? Why do pastors carry such a heavy burden for the people they lead? Key points from this devotion: - Paul's great conflict was not for the lost but for the spiritual maturity of saved believers - A good soldier endures hardness, a good athlete strives lawfully, and a good farmer works hard — all patterns for the Christian life - Ben Johnson lost his crown because he did not strive lawfully — a warning for every believer - Leaders need understanding from the Lord to guide people toward maturity (2 Timothy 2:7) - God gave pastors and teachers to perfect the saints and protect them from deceptive doctrine (Ephesians 4:11-14) If this devotion encouraged you, please like, comment, share, and subscribe.
