Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from 1 Timothy 6:11. Faith doesn’t start by trying to believe—it starts by reading God’s Word. We must pursue faith! We can’t love others by our own strength. The only way we can love others is if we let the love of the Holy Spirit run our lives. Let’s ask the Lord for the endurance we need to pursue faith and love!

Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from 1 Timothy 6:10. The Bible has a lot to say about money. Specifically, there are many verses warning against greed! We’ve all heard that “less is more,” so the opposite would also be true—more is actually less. If we have Jesus in our lives, we have all that we need.

Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from 1 Timothy 6:6–10. In this devotional, Pastor Cymbala challenges us to trust God and be thankful—whether we have an old minivan, a new Jaguar, or no car at all! Worrying about having the newest things and accumulating the most wealth only ends up costing us. Our lives can radically change if we release the love of money!

Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from 1 Timothy 6:5–8. In this devotional, Pastor Cymbala reminds us that we will leave this world the same way we entered it—with nothing! So instead of using all of our energy trying to gain material goods, let’s ask the Lord to help us be content with what we have. “If we have food and clothing, we will be content with that” (1 Timothy 6:8).

Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from 1 Timothy 6:2–5. Godliness is not about acquiring money, a new car, or any other physical item. Some Christian leaders claim that our earthly possessions are a reflection of our faith—but that’s false! Would that teaching apply to the saints in third-world countries? No way. But the true teachings of the Bible are applicable everywhere. Let’s be alert for the truth and not worry so much about financial gain.

Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from 1 Timothy 6:3–5. Some Christians value their denomination or Bible translation more than they value people. But Jesus told us to love our neighbors and pray for our enemies. Christians are supposed to be known by love, not by the friction they cause. Let’s ask the Lord to soften our hearts.

Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from 1 Timothy 6:2–4. There are many different religions in the world, and different denominations in each one. It seems like every church has its own set of rules. But the heart of Christianity should simply be godliness. The purpose of a Bible-based ministry is devotion to Christ. We are called by God Almighty to be separate from this carnal world!

Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from 1 Timothy 6:2–4. In this devotional, Pastor Cymbala challenges to get into God’s Word every day. How else will we be able to identify false prophets? If we don’t know what the Bible says, then we won’t know when someone’s teachings go against it. Let’s ask the Holy Spirit to help us understand His Word today.

Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from 1 Timothy 6:1–2. Whether we’re ministers, house cleaners, teachers, or company owners, all Christians are called to be honest workers. We must ask the Lord for help in all our tasks—we’re to do our best in everything for His glory! Remember this today: societal rank and status don’t matter. Being honest in our words and actions to reflect our loving heavenly Father is what counts.

Join Pastor Jim Cymbala for today’s daily devotional from 1 Timothy 5:22–25. In this devotional, Pastor Cymbala challenges our intentions. Do we do things so that others will see and applaud? Or do we help and encourage others because that’s what God calls us to do? Some of our good deeds might only be recognized in heaven. But it will be worth it all when we see Jesus. Let’s serve Him today.
