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.

  • Never Fear Rejection from God

    What if the One you’re afraid will reject you is actually running toward you? ❤️ Sometimes we become so focused on our failures that we forget who God is. The Holy Spirit reminded me in today’s Gem of Knowledge: “I will forgive all who come to Me with a contrite heart. Never fear your past…

    Search My Heart, Lord

    **Lord, search my heart. ❤️** It’s easy to read about the rebellion of God’s people in Jeremiah and wonder how they could be so stubborn. But then I have to ask myself, *Lord, am I doing the same thing in some area of my life?* Today’s Gem of Knowledge: *“Stop rebelling against Me and allow…

  • Draw Into His Fold

    Draw Into His Fold

    He doesn’t want to lose even one. ❤️ The Holy Spirit spoke this beautiful Gem to my heart: “I don’t want to lose even one. Come to me, and I will come to you and draw you into my fold. Amen.” Jesus said the same thing: “In the same way, it is not my heavenly…

  • His Love Is an Invitation

    Your failure doesn’t make you unlovable. Because we fall short and make mistakes, it’s easy for the enemy to creep in and convince us that we’ve gone too far or failed too many times. But the Holy Spirit reassured me: “There is nothing you can do to make me love you less. I will always…

  • Remember Your Source

    Remember Your Source

    It’s easy to remember Him when we’re desperate for His help. But what happens when the prayers are answered, the doors open, and we begin feeling capable on our own? God reminded me today: “Mighty men fall because they forget me, their source. Don’t fall. Remember me and all I do for you.” Wisdom, strength,…

  • Better Late Than Never

    Better Late Than Never

    This morning has been hard. I’m tired, busy, and I was already late getting today’s devotional written when I heard the simplest little Gem whispered to my heart: “Better late than never.” Wow. ❤️ How often do we let “I should have done it sooner” become the reason we never do it at all? Maybe…
