Ever wondered if God could use the very things others overlook about you? In this deeply moving examination of Judges 3, we unpack the remarkable story of Ehud – a left-handed deliverer from the smallest tribe in Israel who single-handedly freed his people from oppression.

We begin by drawing a surprising parallel between the gore in Jurassic Park and the graphic biblical account of Ehud's confrontation with King Eglon. While both might make us want to look away, there's profound spiritual significance in facing uncomfortable realities head-on. The story reveals how Ehud's left-handedness – a characteristic often pitied or dismissed – became the strategic advantage that allowed him to conceal a weapon where guards wouldn't check. What others saw as a disadvantage, God used as the perfect qualification for extraordinary purpose.

Have you ever felt completely unqualified for something God was calling you to do? That's exactly what this week's devotional explores as we examine the story of Othniel, Israel's first judge.

Tucked away in less than six verses of Judges 3, Othniel's story might seem forgettable compared to the more dramatic tales of Samson or Deborah. But there's something powerful about being first—something that sets the tone for everything that follows. Othniel didn't have an impressive resume or extraordinary talents mentioned in Scripture. He was simply from Caleb's lineage, filled with God's Spirit, and willing to say yes when God called.

This devotional hits close to home as I share my own journey of obedience that led to this very podcast.

The beautiful truth we discover is that God doesn't need your impressive background or large social media following. He simply needs your willingness to be filled with His Spirit and move when He calls. Whether you're sensing a nudge toward ministry, a new career path, or simply reaching out to someone in need, remember: "The people you're meant to touch aren't waiting on a superstar. They're waiting on you." Your calling doesn't require the spotlight—just your obedience.

Ready to embrace your own "Othniel moment"? Listen now, and discover how God qualifies the called rather than calling the qualified. Then share this message with someone who needs to hear they're enough—just as they are—for whatever God is asking them to do.

What happens when we keep falling into the same destructive patterns? Whether it's a toxic relationship or a spiritual stumbling block, breaking free requires more than just recognizing the cycle—it demands changing our environment and responses.

I'm thrilled to introduce our new seven-week journey through the Book of Judges, where we'll explore Israel's repetitive cycle of sin, oppression, crying out to God, divine deliverance, peace, and sadly, returning to sin again. This ancient pattern reflects something profoundly relevant to our modern lives.

Ready to break free from what's holding you back? Join me each week as we learn from Israel's mistakes and discover God's unfailing love that continues to rescue us, even when we've chosen the wrong path repeatedly.

We've finally reached the conclusion of our Joshua study with a special milestone—the 50th episode of Jessi Morgan Devotions and our first-ever guest! AJ Donaldson joins me to explore the powerful theme of Generational Commitment found in Joshua's final chapters.

The story begins with a potential misunderstanding when the eastern tribes build an altar that appears rebellious but turns out to be a memorial for future generations. This teaches us about the danger of assumptions and the importance of seeking understanding before judgment. How often do we jump to conclusions without first asking questions?

Joshua's farewell speech warns against compromise and being unequally yoked—a lesson that resonates deeply in our relationships today. Just as Joshua cautioned the Israelites about marriage to pagans, we must consider how our closest relationships shape our faith journey and values. The people we surround ourselves with inevitably influence who we become.

The most powerful moment comes when Joshua establishes his final covenant, challenging the people with the famous declaration: "As for me and my household, we will serve the Lord." My conversation with AJ explores what this commitment looks like in modern life and how we create our own covenant relationships with God.

As Easter approaches, there's no better time to consider what resurrection looks like in your own life. What's your Jordan River to cross? What promised land awaits if you'll step forward in faith? Let this final Joshua study inspire you to embrace courage, commitment, and a covenant relationship with God that transforms not just your life, but generations to come.

Have you ever doubted that God is paying attention to the details of your life? Joshua chapters 19-21 reveal a God who meticulously keeps track of every promise, every city, every border—and fulfills them all with perfect precision.

Walking through three powerful chapters in Joshua, this episode explores God's remarkable attention to detail in land distribution, His compassionate provision of refuge cities for those who made mistakes, and His strategic placement of the Levites throughout Israel to ensure everyone had access to spiritual guidance. As Jessi beautifully compares, God positioned His priests like "Starbucks in New York City"—always within reach when you need a spiritual refill.

Ever received a blessing from God only to immediately focus on what's still missing? In this soul-stirring devotional, I open up about our family's journey buying our first home during the uncertainty of COVID. While grateful for our beautiful house, I initially felt disappointed about not having renovation funds—until God showed me a powerful lesson about gratitude and action that changed everything.

Drawing from Joshua 16-18, we explore two contrasting responses to God's blessings. The daughters of Zelophehad boldly claimed their inheritance in a time when women typically received nothing, demonstrating how faith coupled with action brings transformation. Meanwhile, the tribe of Manasseh complained about their portion instead of working with what they had, allowing fear to prevent them from claiming all God promised them.

This devotional hits right at the heart of modern Christian struggles: being thankful for blessings while still feeling entitled to more. I share candid reflections about overcoming comparison traps, recognizing God's timing, and understanding that divine blessings often require our participation.

Whether you're waiting for God to improve your circumstances or feeling stuck comparing your journey to others, this message will challenge you to see your current blessings through new eyes.

What happens when we surrender our timelines to God's perfect timing? In this soul-stirring devotional, we journey through Joshua 14-15 to discover how Caleb's 45-year wait for his promised inheritance reveals profound truths about patience and divine timing.

At 85 years old, Caleb boldly declared, "I am just as vigorous to go out to battle now as I was then," before conquering the hill country God had promised him decades earlier. His unwavering faith despite the long wait parallels my own 90-year-old grandfather's remarkable vitality.

These stories illuminate a counter-cultural truth: age truly is nothing but a number in God's economy. While we often struggle waiting mere months for answered prayers, both Caleb and my grandfather demonstrate how patience cultivates deeper faith.

Ready to discover how patience creates space for faith and opens doors to unexpected blessings? Listen now, and join me in embracing the waiting seasons with renewed purpose and trust.

Have you ever skimmed past biblical chapters filled with names and land divisions to get to the "good parts"? That's exactly what I used to do with Joshua 12 and 13—until one verse stopped me in my tracks and completely transformed how I understand faith.

God tells Joshua something remarkable: "Allocate this land as an inheritance even though it's still occupied. I myself will drive out the enemies." Wait—plan the victory celebration before the battle is won? Divide the land while enemies still live there? This isn't just ancient history; it's a spiritual blueprint for our lives today.

Through this powerful scripture and my personal wedding disaster story—where my mom calmly planned seating charts while we faced a $10,000 budget shortfall with just days to go—we discover what faith really looks like in action. It means stepping forward when our human logic says "wait."

Ready to stop waiting for evidence before believing? Listen now to discover how faith means projecting the blessing before it arrives.
