Michael Cassidy learned that even if he was facing difficulties, God promised to help him through. What difficulties might be holding you back today? Launch out on God in faith, because if he trusted you with the possession of difficulties, he will walk with you as you deal with them.

As he began an evangelistic organisation called African Enterprise, Michael Cassidy decided to give his all - without fearing mistakes. He knew that God would complete His will, even through Michael's own flaws. Are you paralyzed by mistakes today? Move forward in faith!

African Enterprise did many mission trips to local schools in South Africa in the 60s and 70s, causing many young people to put their faith in Christ. Where is God calling YOU to share the good news? Who knows who might find God if you take the time to share His love.

Again and again in his life, Michael Cassidy discovered that God DOES answer prayer. Will you go to Him in prayer today?

Michael Cassidy's friend Terren felt that he was too far gone for God to love or save. What a tragedy! Nobody is too far from the saving love of our God.

Michael Cassidy spent a lot of his life knowing about Jesus, without ever committing to him fully. When he finally surrendered to Jesus completely, great things happened! Have you fully given your life to Jesus?

Even with his great success in ministry, Michael Cassidy knew that he was only a "weak vessel", and that God had achieved great things in spite of him, not because of him. What a humble outlook, which all Christians should have.

Michael Cassidy "claimed" Africa for Christ, and God did great things through him! What do you need to to "claim" for Christ today?

Jacob's named changed to Israel - because he was one who "wrestled with God". Isn't that what we should all do?

Jacob knew that God had been with him throughout his life. A father-daughter story today reminds us that the same is true for us.

God always has an answer to our prayers - whether it's yes, no, or wait! Jacob found it to be true - may you too.

Jacob has his family go through a time of cleansing. But we must remember Jesus' warning - that outer cleansing means little if we haven't been cleansed on the inside.

When Jacob returns to Bethel, he worships. Are our homes places of worship?

God the Father is with His children to the very end - not even death can separate them from Him, and He takes them by the hand to lead them home when their time comes.

How amazing to know that the God who holds creation in His hands, holds you and I in His arms.

Not only do we wait on the Lord, but he waits for us in the secret place, longing to bless us. Draw near to Him!

Some children wait excitedly for their father's arrival at home... others wait in fear. Children of God have the privilege of waiting for their loving Father in joyful expectation - for He loves them so.

Unlike our earthly fathers who need sleep, God "never slumbers"! Inspiration from Gavin Towsen's song "Father" this week.

Psalm 137 expresses a desire for vengeance on enemies, but Jesus teaches to love and pray for them, emphasizing their salvation over their downfall.
