5 Minutes with God

If you’ve got five minutes, the Lord has something to say. Each devotional is an invitation — a spark from His Word to stir your heart. But the true treasure is in the Action: five minutes you set aside to be with Him. It’s there, in His presence, that the Holy Spirit fills your lamp with oil, transforms your heart, and aligns your life with His. This is your daily time with the King — not just learning about Him, but knowing Him, walking with Him, and being made ready for the Bridegroom’s return.

Short. Simple. Powerful. And really — it’s only five minutes. Who doesn’t have five minutes for the King?

These short, Scripture-anchored devotionals coincide with the Tyndale One Year Bible. Each day is a devotional created from that specific day’s verses and they include at least one passage of scripture, one clear insight, one simple action, and a short prayer—so you can walk with Jesus each day, not just think about Him.

  • Why the Fat of the Liver and Kidneys? | Hidden Surrender in Leviticus

    Why did God command the fat, liver, and kidneys to be burned? In Hebrew thought, they represent strength, purification, and hidden motives. “All the fat is the Lord’s” means surrender what sustains you — not just behavior, but your inner life. And Jesus was fully consumed for us.

  • Redemption Woven Into the Details: Leviticus Reveals Redemption

    Leviticus may seem distant, but it reveals breathtaking beauty. The sin offering, the accessible female goat, and the Hebrew meaning of confession all point to Jesus — our Lamb of God who redeems and restores us when we come into alignment with Him.

  • The Lamb Who Takes It All: Leviticus Reveals Jesus

    Leviticus opens with sacrifices and offerings—but they all point to one Person. Jesus is the Lamb of God who takes away our sin and heals our infirmities. Come to Him and find rest, redemption, and new life.

  • Jesus Our High Priest: Washed, Sealed, and Carried Into God’s Presence

    Jesus is our High Priest. Just as the priest bore Israel’s names on his shoulders and heart, Christ carries us into the Father’s presence. When we repent, believe, and enter covenant with Him, we are sealed forever. This is the Good News — and wisdom invites us to choose it.

  • Valentine’s Covenant: God’s Love That Carries You

    The Ark was made to be carried—but Scripture tells us it carried its carriers. God’s covenant love was never meant to burden you. Through Christ, His presence now dwells within you, and the One you carry is the One who carries you.

  • Learning to Hear God in a World Full of Chaos & Noise

    The world is loud. God is not. When our hearts are stirred and willing, we learn to hear Him above the chaos. Fix your eyes on Christ, and His peace will steady your soul.
