Focal Point: Pt 4 - 5-Day Devotional: Jesus Restores - Day 5
by Lakeview Church on February 27th, 2026
Reading: 2 Corinthians 5:1-7; Romans 8:28Devotional: We walk by faith, not by sight. This isn't just a nice saying—it's the operating system of the Kingdom. Faith believes God's word more than what our eyes see. The doctor's report may say one thing, but God's word says, "By His stripes you are healed." Your bank account may look empty, but God promises to supply all your needs.This doesn't mean d...  Read More

by Lakeview Church on February 26th, 2026
Reading: Psalm 34:1-8Devotional: "Immediately the girl stood up and began to walk around." When Jesus speaks life, immediate transformation is possible. He didn't say, "Eventually you'll feel better" or "Give it time." He said, "Get up," and she got up—immediately.Too often we delay our obedience, waiting to feel ready or worthy. But God's word doesn't require our feelings to align first. The psal...  Read More

Reading: Mark 5:35-43Devotional: "Your daughter is dead. Why bother the teacher anymore?" These words could have ended Jairus's hope. The worst had happened. But Jesus spoke five powerful words: "Don't be afraid, just believe."Fear and faith cannot occupy the same space. When circumstances scream that it's too late, that God has forgotten you, that your situation is beyond repair—Jesus whispers, "...  Read More

by Lakeview Church on February 24th, 2026
Reading: Mark 5:21-34Devotional: The woman with the issue of blood teaches us that desperation can dismantle our dignity and pride—and that's exactly what faith requires. For twelve years she suffered, spending everything on physicians who couldn't help. Yet when she heard Jesus was near, she pressed through the crowd with one thought: "If I can just touch His garment."Jesus didn't even speak to h...  Read More

by Lakeview Church on February 23rd, 2026
Reading: Joel 2:21-27Devotional: In the midst of devastation, God speaks a word of restoration. The locusts had consumed everything—years of harvest, hope, and abundance. Yet God promises, "I will restore to you the years." This isn't merely about recovering what was lost; it's about God's faithfulness to bring abundance where there was desolation.Perhaps you've lost years to addiction, broken rel...  Read More

by Lakeview Church on February 20th, 2026
Reading: Matthew 28:18-20 (The Great Commission)Devotional: Jesus said, "Go into all the world." Not "wait until you feel ready" or "go when you're perfect." Just go. The world is watching how we live, not just listening to what we say. They're watching how we give, how we forgive, how we act and react. Small steps of faith create tsunamis of impact in the spiritual realm. You don't need a platfor...  Read More

by Lakeview Church on February 19th, 2026
Reading: Galatians 2:20Devotional: Paul declared, "I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me." This is the heart of taking up your cross—it's not about dying, but about living fully for Jesus. Your cross is your calling, your unique purpose in God's kingdom. When you pick up your cross, you pick up your purpose. Jesus fulfilled His mission on the cross; now He ...  Read More

Focal Point: Pt 3 - 5-Day Devotional: Jesus Calls - Day 3
by Lakeview Church on February 18th, 2026
Reading: Matthew 16:24-26Devotional: Jesus' invitation to deny ourselves isn't about self-hatred or humiliation—it's about freedom. To deny yourself means to forget yourself, to lose sight of your own interests in favor of God's greater purpose. This doesn't happen naturally; it requires intentional pursuit of relationship with Christ first. You cannot clean yourself up to come to God; you must co...  Read More

Focal Point: Pt 3 - 5-Day Devotional: Jesus Calls - Day 2
by Lakeview Church on February 17th, 2026
Reading: 1 Corinthians 1:26-31Devotional: God's calling on your life has nothing to do with your qualifications and everything to do with His power. The disciples were fishermen, not theologians. Peter cursed and cut off ears even after walking with Jesus for years. Paul persecuted Christians before becoming the greatest missionary. Your past failures, lack of education, or personal weaknesses don...  Read More

by Lakeview Church on February 16th, 2026
Reading: Luke 19:1-10 (The story of Zacchaeus)Devotional: Jesus didn't wait for Zacchaeus to clean up his life before calling him down from that tree. He invited himself to the tax collector's home while the man was still living in sin. This is the beautiful truth of our Savior—He meets us in our mess, not after we've sorted everything out. You don't have to have it all together to come to Jesus. ...  Read More

Focal Point: Pt 2 - 5-Day Devotional: Jesus Forgives - Day 5
by Lakeview Church on February 13th, 2026
Reading: Colossians 3:12-15; Matthew 6:9-15Devotional: Jesus taught us to pray daily: "Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us." This isn't about earning God's forgiveness—it's about remembering we've received it so we can release it to others. Unforgiveness is like drinking poison and expecting your enemy to die. It destroys you while they remain unaffected. When you struggle t...  Read More

by Lakeview Church on February 12th, 2026
Reading: Luke 15:11-24Devotional: The prodigal son expected rejection. He rehearsed his apology speech, hoping to be accepted as a hired servant. But while he was still far off, the father saw him and ran. The father didn't wait for the apology; he didn't demand the son grovel or prove himself. Filled with compassion, he ran to embrace his wayward child. This is your Heavenly Father's heart toward...  Read More
