The older you get, the more likely you are to confront an unexpected challenge: Severe illness, the death of a loved one, divorce, losing a job, or even losing a home in a fire or hurricane to name a few.

The year begins with the season of Advent, when we think of the first coming of Jesus into the world and the way in which it was prepared for his coming. Then follows Christmas, the well-known and popular festival when we remember the Saviour’s birth to a Jewish lady, Mary. This is followed by the Epiphany, when the Lord was first shown to the non-Jewish people, the Gentiles. Quite a significant event for those not of the Jewish faith. It is the first recorded time that the Lord was shown to non-Jewish people (Gentiles), reminding us that he came for everyone.

Yet though God's word is precious and nourishing to our hearts, minds, and souls, so few of us know it and know how to apply it. Power Up with God hopes to remedy this deficiency and help believers get the benefits of applying every word of God. We can read or hear the words from the preachers pulpit, but we will gain nothing until we begin to eat the word of God.
