Bible in One Year: Judges 4–5

Date: Saturday, 14th March, 2026

Text: 2 Corinthians 1:9

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation

One purpose of tribulation is to teach believers dependence on God. Human strength often proves insufficient in the face of serious challenges. In such moments, believers learn to rely fully on divine help. As the Apostle Paul declared in 2 Corinthians 1:9, the trial he faced made him realize that he should not trust in himself but in God who raises the dead.

Tribulation humbles the heart and redirects confidence toward the Lord. Through such experiences, faith becomes deeper and more sincere. What appears as weakness often becomes the doorway through which believers encounter the power and faithfulness of God in a new and profound way.

When life flows smoothly, people may depend on their abilities and resources. But when storms arise, prayer becomes deeper and faith becomes stronger. Tribulation often pushes believers closer to God and reminds them that true help comes from Him. The Scripture assures us in Psalm 46:1 that God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

Beloved, allow tribulation to draw you nearer to God rather than away from Him. Every trial is an opportunity to strengthen your trust in the Lord. As you rely on Him more deeply, you will experience His sustaining grace and unfailing power working in your life.

Prayer Nugget: Heavenly Father, please let your grace sustain us and your mighty hand deliver us from every trial in Jesus’ name.

Text: 1 Peter 1:6–7

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

Tribulation plays an important role in strengthening the believer’s faith. Just as gold is refined in fire, faith becomes stronger when tested. Trials purify and deepen our trust in God.

The Apostle Peter explains that the trial of faith is more precious than gold. Though gold perishes, genuine faith endures forever. Tribulation therefore becomes a refining process in the hands of God.

Many believers discover their greatest spiritual growth during difficult seasons. Challenges push them closer to God in prayer, worship, and dependence. What appears painful often produces spiritual maturity.

James also encourages believers to count it all joy when facing diverse trials. This is because the testing of faith produces patience and completeness in the believer’s life (James 1:2–4).

Therefore do not despise the refining fire. God is shaping your character and strengthening your faith. After the trial, your life will shine with greater testimony and glory to God.

Prayer Nugget: Father, help me to trust you; refine my faith through every challenge and let my life bring glory to your name in Jesus name.

Bible in One Year: Joshua 23–24

Date: Thursday, 12th March, 2026

Text: John 16:1

Exhortation:

Our Lord Jesus warned His disciples about tribulation so that they would not be taken by surprise. Foreknowledge prepares the heart for endurance. A believer who understands this truth is better equipped to stand firm when trials arise.

Christ said, “These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended” (John 16:1). Tribulation can shake those who expect the Christian life to be free from difficulties. But the wise believer remains steady, knowing that challenges are part of the journey.

Trials are not meant to destroy faith but to reveal its strength. Just as storms test the foundation of a building, tribulations reveal the depth of our trust in God. Through such seasons, faith is refined and strengthened.

Scripture therefore urges believers to remain vigilant and courageous. “Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong” (1 Corinthians 16:13). A prepared heart develops resilience and perseverance.

Beloved, let the words of Christ anchor your heart today. When tribulations come, remember that your Lord already told you they would. With this understanding, you can face every trial with courage and unwavering faith.

Prayer Nugget: Father, please, prepare my heart to stand firm in every trial. Help me remain steadfast and unshaken in my faith in Jesus name.

Bible in One Year: Joshua 21–22

Date: Wednesday, 11th March, 2026

Text: John 15:19

Exhortation:

Jesus declared that His followers are not of the world even though they live in it. Because believers belong to Christ, their lives and values become different. This distinction often attracts opposition.

The world system naturally resists righteousness, truth, and godliness. When a believer chooses holiness over compromise, light over darkness, and truth over falsehood, friction may arise. This is part of the cost of true discipleship.

Jesus said plainly, “If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world… therefore the world hateth you” (John 15:19). Such rejection should not surprise the believer; rather, it confirms our identity as those chosen out of the world.

The apostles experienced this reality when they boldly preached the gospel. Yet instead of despairing, they rejoiced that they were counted worthy to suffer for the name of Christ (Acts 5:41). Their tribulation became a testimony of unwavering faith.

Therefore, do not be discouraged when standing for Christ brings resistance. The same Lord who called you will strengthen and sustain you. Remain steadfast, for those who endure with Him will also reign with Him (2 Timothy 2:12).

Prayer Nugget: Father, pleas, grant me the grace to remain faithful even in the midst of opposition in Jesus name.

Bible in One Year: Joshua 18–20

Date: Tuesday, 10th March, 2026

Text: 2 Samuel 3:1

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

There was a long war between the house of Saul and the house of David, yet David kept waxing stronger while Saul’s house grew weaker. The secret behind David’s rise was not military strategy but divine presence. 1 Chronicles 11:9 reveals the key: the Lord of hosts was with him.

The presence of God is the ultimate game changer in life’s battles. When God surrounds a man, opposition cannot successfully overthrow him. Anyone who must defeat David would first have to defeat the God protecting him—an impossible task.

David understood this mystery, which is why he cultivated a life of deep fellowship with God. He prayed, worshipped, meditated on God’s Word, and continually sought the face of his Defender. His strength on the battlefield was rooted in his intimacy in the secret place.

At first David sought the Lord three times daily—“Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and he shall hear my voice” (Psalm 55:17). Later he progressed to praising God seven times a day—“Seven times a day do I praise thee because of thy righteous judgments” (Psalm 119:164).

Eventually he resolved to bless the Lord at all times—“I will bless the Lord at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth” (Psalm 34:1), while his soul longed for God “as the deer pants for the water brooks” (Psalm 42:1).

Beloved, if we must grow stronger and stronger in life, we must carry God’s presence continually. Those who seek Him with all their hearts will surely find Him (Jeremiah 29:13). When God is with you, your strength will increase while every opposition will gradually fade.

Prayer Nugget: Father, I ask for the grace to thirst and hunger for your presence continually. Let your presence make me stronger and stronger in life in Jesus name.

Bible in one year: Joshua 14-17

Text: John 16:33

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

Jesus spoke these reassuring words to His disciples: “In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.” He was preparing them for the reality of life in a fallen world. Tribulation is therefore not strange to the believer’s journey.

The world in which we live is affected by sin and its consequences. Pain, disappointment, sickness, and opposition are realities that even the righteous encounter. The presence of tribulation does not mean the absence of God.

Scripture reminds us that “many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all” (Psalm 34:19). God does not promise a life without trouble. He promises His presence and deliverance through it all.

Beloved, when tribulation comes, do not conclude that God has abandoned you. Often, trials are simply the evidence that we are still pilgrims in a broken world. Yet God remains our refuge and strength.

Therefore lift up your head and take courage today. Though tribulations exist in the world, they cannot overcome those who trust in the Lord. With God on your side, you will rise above every challenge.

Prayer Nugget: Father, please, grant me the grace to rise above every tribulation through the victory of Christ.

Bible in one year: Joshua 11-13

Date: Sunday, 8th March, 2026

Text: Exodus 14:14

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

There are battles in life that God never intended His children to fight by their own strength. When we trust in the Lord and rely on His power, He can grant victory without the need for human struggle. The Scriptures repeatedly show that God is able to defeat enemies on behalf of His people.

In the days of Hezekiah, the mighty army of Sennacherib surrounded Jerusalem. Hezekiah sought the Lord in prayer, and God intervened. In one night, the angel of the Lord struck the Assyrian army, and Judah won the battle without lifting a sword (2 Kings 19:35).

Another powerful example is Jehoshaphat, who faced a vast coalition of enemies. Instead of rushing to battle, he led the people to seek God and sent singers ahead to praise the Lord. As they praised, God set ambushments among their enemies, and the opposing armies destroyed one another (2 Chronicles 20:22).

God also gave an unusual victory to Gideon against the Midianites. With only three hundred men carrying trumpets and lamps, Gideon obeyed God’s instruction. The Lord caused confusion in the enemy camp, and the Midianites turned their swords against themselves (Judges 7:22).

Beloved, these accounts remind us that victory does not always come through human strength or fierce struggle. As the Lord declared to His people in Exodus 14:14, “The Lord shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.” When we trust God, obey His word, and seek His face, He can fight our battles and grant us victory even before the battle begins.

Prayer Nugget: Father, arise and fight every battle confronting my life and family in Jesus’ name.

Text: Proverbs 4:1–4

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

A father is more than a provider; he is a spiritual architect. Through his words, discipline, and example, he quietly builds the framework upon which the lives of his children will stand. Many destinies are either strengthened or weakened by the influence that flows from a father’s life.

King Solomon testified about the impact of his father David’s instruction. He wrote, “He taught me also, and said unto me, Let thine heart retain my words: keep my commandments, and live” (Proverbs 4:4). David did not only prepare Solomon for a throne; he prepared him for life by planting wisdom and reverence for God in his heart.

God Himself acknowledged the power of a father’s influence when He spoke about Abraham: “For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the Lord” (Genesis 18:19). Abraham’s godly leadership established a legacy of faith that would bless generations. A father who walks with God leaves behind more than inheritance—he leaves a spiritual pathway.

However, the absence of godly fatherhood can leave deep scars. Eli loved God, yet he failed to restrain his sons when they behaved wickedly, and the consequences were devastating for his household. This reminds us that fatherhood is not only about affection but also about righteous guidance and correction.

Beloved, a godly father shapes destinies long before the world notices. Through prayer, instruction, and personal example, he raises children who know the Lord and walk in His ways. Indeed, the quiet influence of a father can echo across generations and become a lasting legacy of righteousness.

Prayer Nugget: Father, make me a vessel of godly influence in my family that my life will guide the next generation to walk in your ways, in Jesus’ name.

Text: Proverbs 31:1-9

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

The Bible repeatedly shows that the influence of a mother can shape the destiny of leaders. Long before a throne is occupied or a ministry is established, character is often formed in the home. The seeds planted in a child’s heart can guide the course of a lifetime.

In Proverbs 31:1-9, the Scripture records the instruction given by the mother of King Lemuel. She warned him against immorality and against indulgence in wine. She urged him to rule with justice and compassion. This passage shows a mother intentionally preparing her son for righteous leadership.

On the other hand, the Bible also shows how negative influence can corrupt leadership. Jezebel promoted idolatry and wickedness in Israel and influenced her son Ahaziah, who followed the sinful ways of his parents (1 Kings 22:52). Her influence demonstrates how ungodly guidance can lead a leader astray.

The New Testament also highlights the power of godly motherhood. The apostle Paul commended the sincere faith that first lived in Lois, the grandmother of Timothy, and Eunice, the mother of Timothy, which later flourished in Timothy (2 Timothy 1:5). Their spiritual investment helped raise a young man who became a key leader in the early church.

Beloved, these examples remind us that the influence of a mother can shape the future of families, churches, and even nations. Godly instruction, prayer, and righteous example are powerful tools in molding the lives of the next generation. Indeed, leadership is often first nurtured at a mother’s feet.

Prayer Nugget: Father, through me let the seeds of righteousness be planted in my children in Jesus name.
