Standing in the Gap
👔 Devotional for Fathers (Breadwinners & Leaders at Home)

Verse:
“I looked for someone among them who would build up the wall and stand before me in the gap on behalf of the land.” – Ezekiel 22:30

Reflection:
A godly father is a spiritual defender. When the world pressures your family, your prayers and faith stand as a wall of protection. To “stand in the gap” means to intercede—to cover your family, church, and nation with prayer.

God seeks men who will rise early and fight unseen battles on their knees.

Reflection Question:
Am I standing in the gap for my family through prayer and example?

Takeaways / Things to Do:

  • Begin your day with prayer for your family’s protection.

  • Intercede for your children’s future and your spouse’s strength.

  • Be alert to spiritual attacks and respond with prayer, not fear.

Prayer:
Lord, make me a man who stands in the gap. Teach me to guard my home in prayer and to lead my family with spiritual strength. Amen.

The Coffee and The Table

Welcome to The Coffee Table ☕📖 Where the Word is served warm — just like your coffee. There’s something beautiful, almost sacred, about sitting down at a coffee table.

The Story of Cain and Abel📝

The Story of Cain and Abel Bible Study Post Scripture Reading: Genesis 4:1–16 Theme: Guard Your Heart — When Pride, Jealousy, and Anger Knock at the Door 🌿 Introduction The story of Cain and Abel is one of the first lessons in the Bible about the danger of letting wrong emotions and attitudes rule the heart. It shows how pride, jealousy, and anger — when left unchecked — can lead even the firstborn of mankind to commit the first murder. Cain and Abel were sons of Adam and Eve. Cain worked the soil, and Abel tended flocks. Both brought offerings to the Lord, yet God accepted Abel’s and not Cain’s. What happened next reveals the spiritual battle within the human heart. 🕊️ The Offerings “Now Abel kept flocks, and Cain worked the soil. In the course of time Cain brought some of the fruits of the soil as an offering to the LORD. And Abel also brought an offering—fat portions from some of the firstborn of his flock. The LORD looked with favor on Abel and his offering, but on ...

The Blessed Hope — Understanding the Rapture "For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord." — 1 Thessalonians 4:16–17 (ESV) 📖 Introduction to the Rapture The Rapture is one of the greatest promises given to believers. It is the moment when Jesus Christ will return to take His church out of this world to be with Him forever. Unlike His Second Coming, when He will return to reign and judge, the Rapture is a meeting in the air between Christ and His church. It is the blessed hope that encourages us to live in holiness and faithfulness, reminding us that this world is not our final home. Paul wrote in 1 Thessalonians 4:16–17 that the Lord Himself will descend with a shout, the voice of the archangel...
