THE SPRINGS

Thursday, December 18, 2025 And he said unto them, Is a candle brought to be put under a bushel, or under a bed? and not to be set on a candlestick? For there is nothing hid, which shall not be manifested; neither was any thing kept secret, but that it should come abroad. If any man have ears to hear, let him hear. And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you: and unto you that hear shall more be given. For he that hath

Wednesday, December 17, 2025 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure. Do all things without murmurings and disputings: That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the wor

Tuesday, December 16, 2025 But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day. Proverbs 4:18 This proverb reminds us that growth in God is a progressive, not an instant, process. The Hidden Manna  here is that your Shine  is designed to increase over time—you don’t have to be fully bright on day one. Every step you take in obedience adds more light to your path, even when you don’t notice it right away. Shine  means trusting the

Monday, December 15, 2025 Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be seasoned? It is neither fit for the land, nor yet for the dunghill; but men cast it out. He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. Luke 14:34-35 Jesus uses salt to remind us that our influence matters more than our volume. The Hidden Manna  here is that Shine  isn’t about being loud or visible—it’s about being effective and authentic. When salt loses its savor, it still looks th

Series: SHINE “SHINE” PT II Matthew 5:13–16 (KJV) Theme: Hidden Manna Follows: “SHINE” Pt. I THE BIG IDEA Jesus doesn’t hype the crowd — He names their identity . You are salt. You are light. You are seen. Not later. Now. The Beatitudes already told us who is blessed .Now Jesus tells us what to do with it . This isn’t about becoming something new —it’s about owning what’s already been given . POINT 1 — YOU’VE BEEN CHOSEN (v. 13) “Ye are the salt of the earth…” Salt was never

Series: SHINE “SHINE” PT I Matthew 5:13–16 (KJV) Theme: Hidden Manna Follows: “SEE THE GOODNESS OF THE LORD, NOW” Pt. I & II THE BIG PICTURE Jesus doesn’t say you will become  salt and light.He says you are . That means shining isn’t something you earn later — it’s something you live out now.This is not about hype, perfection, or performance.This is about purpose , presence , and value . POINT 1 — BECAUSE YOU WERE CREATED TO BE A WELLSPRING OF POWER (v. 13) “Ye are the salt o

Sunday, December 14, 2025 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see y

Saturday, December 13, 2025 For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. Habukkuk 2:3 God reminds Habakkuk that vision has timing, and timing is part of the miracle. The Hidden Manna  here is that delay does not mean denial—it means preparation. Shine  means keeping your light on even when what God promised hasn’t shown up yet. Waiting isn’t wasted time; i

Friday, December 12, 2025 Blessed be the LORD: for he hath shewed me his marvellous kindness in a strong city. For I said in my haste, I am cut off from before thine eyes: nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my supplications when I cried unto thee. O love the LORD, all ye his saints: for the LORD preserveth the faithful, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer. Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the LORD. Psalm 31:21-24 David prai

Thursday, December 11, 2025 And the LORD hath given me knowledge of it, and I know it: then thou shewedst me their doings. But I was like a lamb or an ox that is brought to the slaughter; and I knew not that they had devised devices against me, saying, Let us destroy the tree with the fruit thereof, and let us cut him off from the land of the living, that his name may be no more remembered. But, O LORD of hosts, that judgest righteously, that triest the reins and the heart, l
