Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from Psalm 119:89–96. In today’s devotional, Pastor Cymbala asks us, “Where would you rather be today: on earth, fighting the devil, or in heaven with God?” As believers in Christ Jesus, this should be an easy question! The Bible promises that we’re going to heaven if we’re saved. When our time on earth is through, there will be no coming back or reincarnating—just instantly facing our Savior. Hallelujah for that!

Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from Psalm 119:81–88. Whether we feel the love of God every day or not is irrelevant—God always loves us and has promised never to leave us. When we feel stretched thin or oppressed, we must cling to the Word of God and His never-ending love. We can ask the Lord for help and comfort when we need it—may we never forget how He always comes through!

Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from Psalm 119:65–72. When people are wrong, accuse, or hurt us, we can take shelter in God’s love. If we’re the ones acting wrongly, he still loves us. The chastening of God helps us to live godly lives, if we're open to receive the teaching. However we may be feeling today, we can take refuge in the peace and love of God. Let’s thank Him for that!

Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from Psalm 119:57–64. In this devotional, Pastor Cymbala challenges us to praise God more. It is not something for us to only do on Sundays. We should be praising God all day, every day—when we’re taking a shower, going to work, cleaning the house, whenever! The Lord inhabits the praises of His people. We can enjoy His presence and blessing more when we praise Him.

Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from Psalms 119:49–56. God likes fervent, passionate prayer. If the Lord has given us hope or encouragement, He delights in hearing us ask about it! Although He never forgets or forsakes us, God loves when we remember His words and bring it up in prayer. Let’s be fervent like the psalmist and remind God of His wonderful promises.

Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from Psalm 119:41–48. In this devotional, Pastor Cymbala teaches us about spiritual health. Just like we need to take good care of our physical bodies, our souls need to stay healthy! The only way to do that is by taking in the good—reading and meditating on Scriptures—and rejecting the spiritual junk food the world offers, like movies, music, and social media.

Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from Psalm 119:33–40. We need the Lord’s help. Material possessions and worthless things of the world distract us from God every day! We have to pray like the psalmist did—Lord Jesus, turn our hearts toward You. Turn our eyes away from distractions. He will help us if we ask. Let’s look to God today!

Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from Psalm 119:25–32. In this devotional, Pastor Cymbala warns us about deceit. Imagine lying while giving a testimony—how deceitful! When we don’t seek the Lord through prayer and Bible study, we very easily give into spiritual weakness and fall into deceitful ways. We must meditate on the wonderful Word of the Lord! He has so much to teach us with all of His love, grace, and mercy.

Let’s seek Him and find out!
