Christ Is Everything: Light, Life, and Redemption — John 1:3–5 — Dec 19, 2025

Christ is the source of every Advent gift—Light, Life, Love, and Redemption.

• The Daily Devotional Prayer Journal: https://amzn.to/4oULiJn

In today’s 5-Minute Daily Devotional, we look at John 1:3–5 and reflect on the heart of Advent’s final focus: Christ Himself.

He is not just the one who brings hope, peace, joy, and love—He is the source of all of them.

Jesus is:

• Creator — everything exists through Him

• Light — shining into every darkness

• Life — the true life every heart longs for

• Redeemer — restoring what sin has broken

Because Christ came once and is coming again, everything good God gives is found in Him.

The more we behold who He is, the more we understand who we are in Him.

Adore Him: The Right Response to God’s John 3:16 Love This Christmas — Luke 2:13–14; John 3:16 — Dec 18, 2025

Christmas is God’s love in motion—and our response is to adore Him.

• The Daily Devotional Bible Study Journal: https://amzn.to/3Ln4yB7

• The Daily Devotional Prayer Journal: https://amzn.to/4oULiJn

In today’s 5-Minute Daily Devotional, we reflect on Luke 2:13–14 and John 3:16.

The angels declared glory.

The shepherds hurried to worship.

Mary treasured the miracle in her heart.

Why?

Because God’s love had come near—Jesus had entered the world.

This Advent week focuses on Love, reminding us that God didn’t just feel love—

He gave love, in the most personal way possible.

And the right response to that kind of love?

Adoration.

Real worship.

A heart turned toward Him in gratitude and wonder.

God Knows the End from the Beginning: Why You Can Stop Worrying — Isaiah 46:10 — Dec 17, 2025

You don’t need to know the whole story when you trust the God who does.

🕊️ Grow Closer to God with Our Journals

• The Daily Devotional Bible Study Journal: https://amzn.to/3Ln4yB7

• The Daily Devotional Prayer Journal: https://amzn.to/4oULiJn

In today’s 5-Minute Daily Devotional, we reflect on Isaiah 46:10 and the comfort of knowing that God sees the entire storyline of your life—from beginning to end.

We often wish we knew the details:

How will this turn out?

What will happen next?

Will the process be painful?

Will God come through?

But Scripture reassures us:

God already knows the end from the beginning, and His purposes will stand.

This truth allows us to release control, walk by faith, and rest in the God who never loses sight of His plan for us.

WARNING: Test the Spirits — The One Rule for Spiritual Safety | 1 John 4:1 — Dec 16, 2025

Not every spirit is from God—Scripture gives us one rule that keeps us safe.

🕊️ Grow Closer to God with Our Journals

• The Daily Devotional Bible Study Journal: https://amzn.to/3Ln4yB7

• The Daily Devotional Prayer Journal: https://amzn.to/4oULiJn

In today’s devotional, we explore 1 John 4:1 and the biblical command to test the spirits.

God calls us to be spiritually alert—not fearful, but discerning—so that we can recognize what comes from Him and what does not.

You’ll learn:

• Why deception often appears harmless

• The #1 test for determining spiritual truth

• Why denying the divinity of Jesus is a major red flag

• How the Holy Spirit often warns us before we understand why

• Why walking away is sometimes the wisest—and safest—choice

Testing the spirits is not optional.

It is essential to following Jesus with clarity, wisdom, and spiritual protection.

What Made Mary Great? How God Uses the Humble — Luke 1:46–49 — Dec 15, 2025

Mary wasn’t chosen because of status—she was chosen because of her humble heart.

🕊️ Grow Closer to God with Our Journals

• The Daily Devotional Bible Study Journal: https://amzn.to/3Ln4yB7

• The Daily Devotional Prayer Journal: https://amzn.to/4oULiJn

In today’s 5-Minute Daily Devotional, we reflect on Mary’s Magnificat in Luke 1:46–49, where she praises God for seeing her humble position and doing great things through her life.

God didn’t choose Mary because she was prominent, wealthy, or influential.

He chose her because of a humble, surrendered heart that said “yes” to Him.

And the same is true for us.

God loves to use the humble.

He honors those who trust Him.

He lifts up those the world overlooks.

If God used Mary—a poor, unknown young woman—to bring Jesus into the world,

He can use you in powerful and meaningful ways, too.

The Truth About Self-Control: How to Strengthen Your Spirit — Proverbs 25:28; Gal 5:22–23 — Dec 11, 2025

• The Daily Devotional Bible Study Journal: https://amzn.to/3Ln4yB7

• The Daily Devotional Prayer Journal: https://amzn.to/4oULiJn

In today’s 5-Minute Daily Devotional, we explore Proverbs 25:28 and Galatians 5:22–23 to understand why self-control matters so deeply to our spiritual health.

Proverbs tells us that lack of self-control leaves us vulnerable—like a city with broken walls.

Galatians reminds us that true self-control is the work of the Holy Spirit, not human effort alone.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why self-control affects every part of your life

• The difference between self-help and Spirit-help

• The Daily Devotional Bible Study Journal: https://amzn.to/3Ln4yB7

In today’s 5-Minute Daily Devotional, we explore three key prophecies that reveal the long arc of God’s redeeming plan:

• Genesis 3:15 — the first promise of a coming Savior

• Numbers 24:17 — a star and scepter pointing to the Messiah

• Isaiah 7:14 — a virgin will give birth to “God with us”

Throughout Scripture, God reveals a plan that stretches across centuries—

a plan fulfilled in Jesus and still unfolding in your life today.

Your story is part of a much bigger story.

And God’s plan for you is good, purposeful, and full of redemption.

Is It Good or God? How to Discern Your Next Step — 2 Samuel 7:5–7 — Dec 9, 2025

Not every good thing is a God thing—David learned that, and so do we.

🕊️ Grow Closer to God with Our Journals

• The Daily Devotional Bible Study Journal: https://amzn.to/3Ln4yB7

• The Daily Devotional Prayer Journal: https://amzn.to/4oULiJn

In today’s 5-Minute Daily Devotional, we explore 2 Samuel 7:5–7, where David desires to build a temple for the Lord. His intentions were pure and noble, but God redirected the assignment to Solomon—a man of peace.

Some things are good.

But only some things are God.

We walk through three keys to discern your next step:

• Consider your calling

• Consider your season

• Consider your assignment

When God says “not you” or “not now,” it’s never rejection—it’s redirection. His plans are always aligned with purpose, timing, and who He created you to be.

• The Daily Devotional Bible Study Journal: https://amzn.to/3Ln4yB7

• The Daily Devotional Prayer Journal: https://amzn.to/4oULiJn

In today’s 5-Minute Daily Devotional, we explore how Matthew 28:19–20 calls us to make disciples in every season—including Christmas. As the world slows down, gathers, reflects, and hopes, hearts become unusually open to the gospel.

This devotional equips you with a simple, intentional Christmas strategy built around three missional steps:

• Invite — open the door

• Bless — reflect Christ’s love

• Point to Jesus — through presence and kindness

This season isn’t just about celebration—it’s about mission. God may want to use you to reach someone right where you are.

• Slow to Become Angry — let the Spirit guide your emotions

This isn’t about stuffing down emotions.

It’s about letting the Holy Spirit shape your response so that your anger doesn’t control you—or harm others.

In today’s 5-Minute Daily Devotional, we reflect on 2 Corinthians 9:6–7 (NIV), where Paul teaches that those who sow generously will reap generously—and that God loves a cheerful giver.

Generosity requires sacrifice, but when we see people as “worth it,” giving becomes an act of worship, not duty.

Let’s ask God to help us give joyfully and generously to the people and causes He places on our hearts.

“The people walking in darkness have seen a great light…

For to us a child is born, to us a son is given.”

The same God who brought light into a dark world still brings light into our hearts today.

This Advent, we celebrate why we have hope:

• God has already kept His promise by sending Jesus

• His light still breaks into our darkest places

• He will come again to make all things new

We don’t just remember a story—we cling to a Savior who is Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace.

Where Is Your Heart? Stop Chasing Temporary Treasures (Matthew 6:19–21)

Let’s carry Thanksgiving’s gratitude into every day—treasuring what truly matters.

In today’s 5-Minute Daily Devotional, we reflect on Matthew 6:19–21 (NIV):

“Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth… For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”

Black Friday often tempts us to chase more, buy more, and want more.

But Jesus calls us to a better investment—one that lasts forever.

When we treasure what matters most—our faith, our relationships, and our walk with Christ—we find joy that no sale can offer.

In today’s 5-Minute Daily Devotional, we reflect on 1 Corinthians 8:9–13 (NIV), where Paul warns us about the stumbling block rule: true maturity in Christ means choosing what helps others, not just what’s allowed. Freedom without compassion can wound another’s conscience.

Let’s aim to live in a way that builds up the body of Christ, honoring Him by protecting the faith of others.

📖 Scripture: 1 Corinthians 8:9–13 (NIV)

5-Minute Daily Devotionals with D.Q. Clarke
His Love Endures Forever — Psalm 136:1–3 — Nov 24, 2025

His love endures forever—and that’s reason enough to give thanks today.

In today’s 5-Minute Daily Devotional, we reflect on Psalm 136:1–3 (NIV):

“Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good. His love endures forever.”

This psalm is a chorus of gratitude—a reminder to remember God’s faithfulness and praise Him for His enduring love.

Each line points to who He is and what He’s done, and invites us to do the same in our own lives: to thank Him for His mercy, His provision, and His unchanging love.

Take a few moments today to write your own thanksgiving psalm.

List what God has done for you and end each line with this truth: His love endures forever.
