10-13-2025 PART 2: More Jesus, Please—Courage in the Fog

Section 1

Today’s prayer focus is Roslyn and Robert in Houston: gratitude for God’s mercy amid chemo, and intercession against the heaviness of oppression and hopelessness that keeps pressing in. The family of God rallies—texts, check-ins, and practical kindness—asking the Lord to steady blood counts, guard against infection, and flood their days with His nearness. We ask for bright clarity in the cloud, strength for Roslyn’s body and soul, and sustaining grace for Robert as he serves beside her; and we thank God for small, tender providences that remind them—and us—that Jesus hasn’t let go.

Section 2

The teaching that emerges is simple and sharp: don’t be ashamed of Jesus or His words. Roslyn found herself in a service that felt 90% life advice and only 10% Jesus; in weakness and chemo-fog, she still chose loving boldness: “Could you put more Jesus in your sermon?” Christ must be central—not moralism, not mere wisdom. Real change begins by seeking the Lord first; minds are renewed by Him, not by willpower. When preaching drifts from the Person to the principles, we lose the power. The call is to re-center everything on Jesus—His gospel, His presence, His transforming touch.

Section 3

A second teaching thread: faith over feelings and ministry in the midst of pain. Feelings can lie; faith holds the rope. Roslyn’s honest struggle—pushing through fog to cling to the Lord—became an unintended sermon to countless listeners: “If she’s pressing in there, what’s my excuse?” Suffering saints often preach the clearest messages, not with microphones but with perseverance. The takeaway for all of us: seek Jesus openly, speak with grace and truth when prompted, receive help humbly, and remember that a living relationship with the living God is both our anchor and our witness—especially in the storm.
