Truth for Today with Terry Fant

God’s answer to our stubborn rebellion is not simply better behavior. It is a new heart.
Through the New Covenant, God offers something the Old Covenant could never accomplish on its own: transformed hearts, a personal relationship with Him, and complete and eternal forgiveness.
Jesus established this New Covenant through His blood, offering forgiveness, transformation, and eternal life to all who will receive Him.
Step out from under the weight of the old and into the freedom of the New.

God is extraordinarily patient, but His patience should never be mistaken for approval.
In 2 Chronicles 36, Jerusalem repeatedly rejects God’s warnings until rebellion brings them to a devastating place: captivity, destruction, and ruin. The story of Zedekiah and Judah reminds us that knowing what God says is not the same as obeying Him. Every time God speaks, our hearts either yield or resist.
The voices we listen to shape the direction we take, and persistent rejection of God eventually brings consequences. Yet even in the middle of judgment, God’s faithfulness shines through. Their consequences were real, but God was not defeated. The book that ends with Jerusalem in ruins also ends with an invitation to go home.
God warns us because He wants to keep us from terrible places. His patience is an invitation to repent, and His faithfulness means that even when our rebellion has taken us far from Him, He is still faithful to offer hope.
The question is not whether God is speaking. The question is: will we listen?

God Himself is the present help for those who worship Him. We live in a world filled with things competing for our worship.
Daniel 3 shows us three men who refused to bow to anything or anyone other than the one true King. Their faithfulness reminds us that worship is ultimately about who sits on the throne of our lives. When we choose our own way over God’s way, we are placing ourselves on the throne. True worship refuses to bow, even when obedience comes with a cost.
Yet God does not abandon those who worship Him. He meets His people with His presence, strengthens them in the fire, and protects them according to His purposes. And when we refuse to bow, our faithfulness can become a testimony that points others to the glory of God.
There may be many things competing for your worship, but there is only One King worthy of it. Refuse to bow. Trust His presence. Stand firm.

Revival is more than emotional moments, outward activity, or religious tradition. True revival begins when we personally seek God, confront the things competing for our allegiance, restore the worship of God to its rightful place, and humbly respond to His Word.
Join us as we discover what is necessary for true revival and how a genuine pursuit of God transforms our priorities, confronts our competing loyalties, and redirects our lives.

No one is too far gone for the grace of God.
In 2 Chronicles 33:1–16, we see the powerful story of King Manasseh—a man who led others into sin, rejected God’s warnings, and found himself in a place of complete brokenness.
Yet when Manasseh humbled himself and cried out to God, the Lord graciously heard him and restored him. This message reminds us that following our own hearts can lead us to desolate places, but repentance opens the road to restoration.
God does not simply want us to feel regret over our sin; He calls us to humbly turn from our way, surrender to His truth, and produce fruit that reflects a changed life.
You don’t have to stay on the broken road. God restores those who humbly repent.

Our rebellion may change our condition, but it can never change God's character.
Failure is something every one of us knows. Whether it's in our marriage, our family, our faith, or our daily walk with Christ, we've all fallen short. But our failures are never the end of the story because God's mercy never fails.
If you've ever wondered whether you've gone too far, failed too many times, or drifted too far from God, this message is for you. Be encouraged by the truth that your failures do not define you—God's mercy does.
