Y’all. We’ve been blown away by all the DMs and emails we’ve received over the past two months because of our testimonies on @delafetestimonies — your unashamed honesty is so beneficial to others. What God has done in you brings Him glory and reminds others they are not alone and that the Lord is ready and eagerly waiting for them to follow Him. Don’t fear what others will think of what you’ve been through or done — rejoice that even one person is moved into the Kingdom because your story helps them better understand who the Lord is. 💕 #Testimony #testimonytuesday #delafe #jesuschrist #jesusdidit #praisegod

What wisdom are you seeking? The world’s ways may sound more practical or comfortable (or maybe you’re deep enough in relationship with God that they don’t! 🙌🏽) but the truth is God’s ways lead us on the path that leads to peace, purpose, and love. #bibledaily #dailyproverb #biblereels #butfirstjesus #jesuschrist #bibleverse

It might not always be possible, but we can avoid so much with even a moments’ rest before reacting that it’s worth suggesting. #christianreels #jesusalways #jesusmemes #butfirstjesus #restinhim #dailydevotion #biblebuild

Please read ⚠️👇🏽
This is not unbiblical. This is full on, through the whole Word, how it is supposed to be. The ultimate judgments are en route. You can read about them in Revelation. Yes, we are called to speak truth and shine light into the darkness. There are times to point out how evil things are, especially so believers do not pursue them and so that some unbelievers wake up to a harsh reality.

However, we are called to correct and rebuke the believers because they have the Holy Spirit that allows them to discern and cherish truth and repent (change their mind) to re-engage with the Lord. Unbelievers do not grasp the truth. They have not accepted the Word of God as inerrant and so they act as their current master does-unrighteously. We are called to share the GOSPEL with them with Biblical love. Satan hates this simple act because that is the key to real change and deliverance from said evil. They are not our enemies, but rather the slaves of our enemy in need of freedom.

Giving Christian’s transgressions slaps on the wrist without correction is not Biblical. Believers are the ones we are called to correct. The world acts like the world and unbelievers will act on their unbelief until they receive the Holy Spirit that can actually change them. That’s why sharing the gospel is the point and not just drawing 27,000 diagrams on why the world is wrong. Of course the world is wrong. Each will continue to be until they come to Christ. So get them to Christ and then we can all correct each other in love. #sharethegospel #sharejesus #jesusistheway #jesusistheonlyway #gospeltruth #butfirstjesus #jesusreels #jesusredeems

It’s easy to lose momentum when you let yourself indulge in things that don’t really satisfy for long. Up front, momentary pleasure for longterm struggle? Not a good look. God’s got a purpose for you today! There’s a point to you being awake! Make the day full of productivity. Stop scrolling, drop the phone, and go be about the Father’s business! #sharethegospel #sharejesus #redeemed #butfirstjesus #dailydevotional #dailyproverb #proverbs #bibledaily

Before Christ you have only one choice —you are lost and can only act in a broken way without Christ. With Christ, you now have the ability to do good in God’s eyes and escape your brokenness. Walk uprightly, opposite of culture, and experience true healing and deliverance from sin. #butfirstjesus #jesusfirst #belikechrist #dailydevotional #devotional #sharejesus

What is The Pantry Podcast?

There are things we’re wise to consume and store up in this life. Yet there are other things that lead to poor health, disappointment—even death.

Choose Jesus, not junk food.

Best and God bless,
