October Surprise 2026: The True God Revealed God of all Comfort -01
Having counseled two young men facing the end of their passionate pursuit of a dream, my counsel was simple. The end of their dreams would be the same no matter when it came. It will feel like the end, and seem like a loss, and a loss never recovered. Which is why I wanted to begin with the God of all comfort. Sorrow and loss are universal, even for God’s children. When we feel we have no refuge, and empty worldly comfort is no comfort, where do we go?
“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort; 4 who comforts us in all our affliction so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. 5 For just as the sufferings of Christ are ours in abundance, so also our comfort is abundant through Christ.” 2 Corinthians 1:3-5
Passages like Romans 15:13, John 14:16-18, Matthew 11:28-30, and Isaiah 25:10-12 are illustrated for us in the lives of Elijah and Hannah.
Our So What?
“Man is born for trouble as the sparks fly upward,” Job 5:7
Where do we go when the earthly comforts are but trifles? The cries of Elijah and Hannah point the way. God of all comfort is our ultimate victory.
Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you entirely; and may your spirit and soul and body be preserved complete, without blame at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 24 Faithful is He who calls you, and He also will bring it to pass. 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24
Brethren, let us pray for one another.

October Surprise 2026: The True God Revealed Introduction
Introducing our October Surprise theme: “Who God has Revealed Himself to be. In October, we will answer two questions.
How do you eat an elephant?
Who is our Creator?
In today’s episode, we explore the definition of the word “besotted.”
We also illustrate the lifestyle of a Christian besotted with God.
“Hear, O Israel! The LORD is our God, the LORD is one! 5 “And you shall love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. 6 “And these words, which I am commanding you today, shall be on your heart; 7 and you shall teach them diligently to your sons and shall talk of them when you sit in your house and when you walk by the way and when you lie down and when you rise up. 8 “And you shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontals on your forehead. 9 “And you shall write them on the doorposts.” Deuteronomy 6:4-9
Our So What?
As you strive to develop Holy conversation with the Holy God of the universe, let the behavior commanded in Deuteronomy 6 be your intention and goal.
Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you entirely; and may your spirit and soul and body be preserved complete, without blame at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 24 Faithful is He who calls you, and He also will bring it to pass. 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24

Jesus Teaches Prayer - Forgiveness: God is Serious (enhanced)
In my culture, forgiveness and its importance grow every day.
This episode is a repeat of our episode on forgiveness. This episode was well received, and as you will hear, praying that 2023 will be a year of Jubilee and Forgiveness, and revisiting just how serious God is about His children forgiving as we have been forgiven, seems like a good idea.
Thank You, Jesus!
The host is weak, faltering, and wholly inadequate for the task, but the word of God is none of those.
The call for the children of God to forgive is serious, and the Bible uses:
Serious Command as witnessed by:
Commands
Matthew 6:14
Mark 11:25
Allusions:
Matthew 5:43-45
Philippians 2:3ff
Exhortations:
Ephesians 4:29-32
Romans 13
Serious Discipline:
David was disciplined through
Embarrassment; 2 Samuel 2:12
Physical Pain: Psalm 32 & 38
The regret of others paying for his sins: 2 Samuel 24:17
We have only updated the introduction.
