📢 Announcement: Upcoming Sunday Message – October 5, 2025

Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,

I warmly invite you to join us tomorrow, Sunday, October 5, 2025, at 12 PM EDT, for our weekly message at SFIHG Ministries. The message is titled:

“The Lord is Merciful and Compassionate”
Psalm 145:8–9 NLT

This passage paints a beautiful portrait of God’s character: “The Lord is merciful and compassionate, slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love. The Lord is good to everyone. He showers compassion on all his creation.”

In this message, we will reflect on God’s mercy, His patience, His unfailing love, and His goodness that extends to all creation. You will be encouraged not only to rest in these truths but also to reflect them in your own life by extending mercy and compassion to those around you.

I encourage you to mark your calendars and share this announcement with your family, friends, and loved ones on social media. In a world often filled with anger and division, this message is a timely reminder of the steadfast and compassionate heart of our God.

Let us come together in unity tomorrow to worship, learn, and be strengthened in our faith.

May the Lord bless you abundantly, and I look forward to sharing this message with you.

Faithfully in Christ,
Brother Jesse

❤️ From the Heart of Brother Jesse – Friday, October 3, 2025 – Living with Bold Faith

Dear Beloved,

As we close this week of reflection on Psalm 27:1–3, let us remember that David’s confidence was not rooted in himself but in God. His declaration was not wishful thinking—it was a statement of faith: “Even if I am attacked, I will remain confident.”

This kind of bold faith is needed today. The world is filled with fear, but the people of God are called to shine with confidence, courage, and trust. When we live with bold faith, others see the light of Christ shining through us, drawing them closer to Him.

Let us be people who live out our faith not timidly but boldly, proclaiming with every action and word that the Lord is our light and our salvation.

So, I say to you, “May the Lord strengthen your faith and use it for His glory, as you walk humbly in His presence.”

With all my love in Christ,
Brother Jesse

❤️ From the Heart of Brother Jesse – Thursday, October 2, 2025 – Confidence in the Midst of War

Dear Family in Faith,

David’s words in Psalm 27:3 are striking: “Though a mighty army surrounds me, my heart will not be afraid. Even if I am attacked, I will remain confident.” This is not natural courage—it is supernatural confidence born from faith in God.

Each of us faces battles, though they may not be armies of soldiers. They may be financial hardships, health struggles, or broken relationships. Yet no matter the battle, God’s Word calls us to remain confident. Why? Because the Lord fights for us.

Let this be your resolve today: no matter the battle, I will not fear. My confidence rests in the unshakable promises of God.

So, I say to you, “May the Lord strengthen your faith and use it for His glory, as you walk humbly in His presence.”

In steadfast hope,

❤️ From the Heart of Brother Jesse – Wednesday, October 1, 2025 – When Enemies Stumble

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

Psalm 27:2 reminds us of David’s confidence: “When evil people come to devour me, when my enemies and foes attack me, they will stumble and fall.” David did not boast in his own ability; his trust was in the Lord’s power to defend him.

We, too, face enemies in various forms—temptations, trials, discouragement, and even spiritual opposition. Yet, just as David witnessed the downfall of his enemies, we can trust that the Lord will cause every weapon formed against us to fail.

Take heart today. The God who delivered David is the same God who walks beside you. You are never alone, and victory is already assured in Christ Jesus.

So, I say to you, “May the Lord strengthen your faith and use it for His glory, as you walk humbly in His presence.”

In Christ’s victory,
Brother Jesse

❤️ From the Heart of Brother Jesse – Tuesday, September 30, 2025 – God, Our Fortress

Dear Friends in Christ,

David proclaimed in Psalm 27:1 that the Lord is his fortress. A fortress is a stronghold, a safe place where enemies cannot break through. In the same way, the Lord surrounds His children with protection and care.

This does not mean life will be free from trials, but it does mean that no attack of the enemy can prevail against those who stand in God’s strength. Remember, Jesus promised in John 16:33, “Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.”

Today, stand tall in the assurance of God’s fortress. Trust that His walls of protection hold firm, even when storms rage around you.

So, I say to you, “May the Lord strengthen your faith and use it for His glory, as you walk humbly in His presence.”

In His love,
Brother Jesse

❤️ From the Heart of Brother Jesse – Monday, September 29, 2025 – Faith Over Fear

Dear Beloved in Christ,

Yesterday’s message reminded us that “The Lord is my light and my salvation—so why should I be afraid?” (Psalm 27:1 NLT). What a powerful declaration of confidence! Fear is a thief that robs us of peace, but faith in God’s character restores courage to our souls.

When fear whispers its lies, we must answer with God’s truth. The Lord is not only light to guide us but salvation to deliver us and a fortress to protect us. As long as He is our refuge, there is no need to tremble.

Today, let your prayer be a declaration of faith. Speak it out loud: “The Lord is my light and my salvation—so why should I be afraid?” Let your confidence rest securely in Him.

So, I say to you, “May the Lord strengthen your faith and use it for His glory, as you walk humbly in His presence.”

Faithfully yours,
Brother Jesse

✟ The Lord Is My Light and My Salvation

Psalm 27:1–3 (NLT)
The Lord is my light and my salvation—so why should I be afraid?
The Lord is my fortress, protecting me from danger, so why should I tremble?
When evil people come to devour me,
when my enemies and foes attack me,
they will stumble and fall.
Though a mighty army surrounds me,
my heart will not be afraid.
Even if I am attacked,
I will remain confident.

The words of David ring through the ages with profound confidence: “The Lord is my light and my salvation—so why should I be afraid?” In these verses, David does not begin with his problems, but with his God. He reminds himself, and us, that no matter what dangers surround us, the Lord is greater than any enemy, any fear, or any circumstance. True courage is not found in our own strength or ability but in knowing who God is—our light, our salvation, and our fortress.

In today’s world, fear is a constant companion for many. Whether it is financial uncertainty, family strife, health concerns, or the moral decay of society, it is easy to feel overwhelmed. Yet David gives us a model: begin not with fear, but with faith.

David paints three pictures of God’s character that give him boldness:

• Light: God brings illumination in the midst of darkness. Just as light removes shadows, God’s presence removes confusion, fear, and doubt. Jesus Himself declared in John 8:12, “I am the light of the world. If you follow me, you won’t have to walk in darkness, because you will have the light that leads to life.”
• Salvation: David knows that his deliverance is not found in weapons, armies, or alliances, but in the Lord. God rescues us not only from earthly enemies but also from sin and eternal separation from Him.
• Fortress: A fortress is a stronghold that cannot be breached by enemies. God surrounds and protects His people, keeping them safe within His care.

When we are tempted to fear, we must remind ourselves of these truths: the Lord lights our path, saves our souls, and guards us as His own.

David does not sugarcoat his situation. He speaks plainly of evil people and enemies who rise against him. Yet he also declares with certainty, “They will stumble and fall.” His confidence is not in his military ability but in the God who has delivered him time and time again.

We, too, face opposition. Sometimes it comes in the form of individuals who oppose our faith, other times as spiritual warfare, and still other times as the trials of life itself. But like David, we must look back on God’s faithfulness. Has He not sustained us through past difficulties? Has He not provided when resources seemed impossible? The same God who was faithful then will be faithful now.

David even contemplates the terrifying possibility of war: “Though a mighty army surrounds me, my heart will not be afraid. Even if I am attacked, I will remain confident.” What extraordinary courage! He acknowledges the danger but refuses to give fear the final word.

This is the essence of faith. Faith does not deny the reality of danger, pain, or hardship. Rather, faith declares that God is greater than all of them. Faith refuses to tremble when armies march against us, because the Lord of Hosts fights for us.

Our world today is filled with uncertainties—economic instability, global unrest, and moral chaos. Yet we, as followers of Christ, must declare with David: “Even if I am attacked, I will remain confident.”

As we reflect on David’s declaration, let us ask ourselves: Where am I tempted to fear? Perhaps it is in matters of health, finances, or family. Perhaps it is the direction of our nation or the darkness of society. Whatever the source, we must remember: the Lord is our light, our salvation, and our fortress.

We must replace fear with faith by boldly declaring our trust in God, just as David did. Each morning, begin your day by speaking these words aloud: “The Lord is my light and my salvation—so why should I be afraid?” Let that declaration strengthen your spirit and remind you of who truly holds your life in His hands.

So, I say to you, “May the Lord strengthen your faith and use it for His glory, as you walk humbly in His presence.”
