Join The Pointe Church for 21 Days of Awakening, a devotional journey to deepen your faith and prepare for Easter. 21 Days of awakening As we journey toward Easter, we want to invite you to slow down and make room for Jesus in a fresh way. Over the next 21 days, this devotional is designed to help you reflect on who Christ is, what He has done, and how His death and resurrection awaken our hearts to live differently. Each day, take a few moments to read the Scripture, sit with the reflection, and ask the Holy Spirit to speak to you personally. Don’t rush through it. Let these days prepare your heart for Easter as we remember the cross, celebrate the resurrection, and lean into all God wants to do in us. Our prayer is that this would be more than a reading plan — that it would be a season of surrender, renewal, and awakening in your life. Day 1 – John 1:1–5, 14 Reflection: Jesus was not created, nor was He an afterthought in God’s plan. He was there in the beginning. The Word became flesh and stepped into our broken world — not as a distant observer, but as God with us. Before we see Him on the cross, we must first understand Him as eternal, sovereign, and fully aware. There has never been a moment He was absent, and there is nothing in your life hidden from Him. Yet how often do we treat Him as if He only belongs in certain spaces? Inviting Him into the convenient parts, the spiritual parts, the Sunday parts — while keeping other areas guarded or compartmentalized. When we truly grasp that He has existed from the beginning of creation, that He sees all and knows all, it becomes harder to confine Him to a box of our choosing. The question then becomes: are we allowing Him full access as Lord, or only partial access when it feels comfortable? Day 2: Isaiah 53:1–6 Reflection: He took it all upon Himself — every sin, every failure, every hidden thought, every act of rebellion, every shame-filled memory. What we deserved, He absorbed. Isaiah tells us He was pierced for our transgressions and crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was placed on Him. He did not step back or defend Himself — He stepped in. The full weight of our guilt rested on His shoulders, not because He was guilty, but because He was willing. He became what we were so we could be healed, restored, and made new. The cross was not an accident; it was love choosing sacrifice. Pause for a moment and let this settle in your heart: Have I grown casual about what cost Him everything? Is there a sin I’ve been minimizing — something He willingly suffered to free me from? And when I truly consider His suffering, does it deepen my gratitude… or have I allowed it to become familiar? Day 3: Matthew 16:13–17 Reflection: Jesus makes it personal. Not who culture says. Not who tradition says. Who do you say He is? It’s important that we consistently pause — even in the mundane rhythms of everyday life — and ask ourselves: What does my life actually say about who Christ is? In my responses, my conversations, and even in my private moments, am I truly reflecting His character? Because often, our behavior communicates loudly who we say Jesus is. Day 4: John 8:12 Reflection: Darkness cannot overcome light. But light must be followed. Jesus came to show us what it truly looks like to live as light in a broken world overshadowed by darkness. He came to serve and to love — to sit with sinners, to touch the untouchable, to wash the feet of the very ones who would betray Him. His life was not just a message; it was a model. The question for us is not simply whether we are following the Light, but whether we are becoming light — carrying His humility, compassion, and truth into every dark atmosphere we step into. Day 5: John 10:11–18 Reflection: He doesn’t abandon His sheep — He lays down His life for them. The question is, are you trusting Him fully with yours? As He leads, guides, and directs your steps, are you surrendering control with confidence in His goodness — or are you holding back in areas where trust feels costly? Day 6: John 14:1–6 Reflection: Jesus doesn’t offer a path, He is the path. We live in a world constantly searching for answers — chasing spirituality, self-improvement, and endless self-help strategies. Yet so often, those pursuits leave us cycling through temporary highs and deeper emptiness. A better job, the perfect spouse, more money, more influence, a better self-image — each promises fulfillment, but only for a moment. They were never meant to carry the weight of our souls. These things may satisfy briefly, but they cannot sustain us. Only Jesus can truly fill what we keep trying to satisfy with everything else. Day 7: Philippians 2:5–11 Reflection: He humbled Himself. Obedient to death. Even death on a cross. Pride quietly pulls us away from our purpose. It distances us from true fulfillment, robs us of peace, and most importantly, creates space between our hearts and Jesus. When we reflect on His life, we see the complete opposite posture — though He had every authority and power to overthrow His enemies, He chose humility. He chose to serve. He chose to sacrifice. He laid down His rights for the sake of love. So we have to ask ourselves honestly: where might pride be keeping us from obedience? Where is it preventing repentance, forgiveness, surrender, or growth? What areas of our lives are being shaped more by self-protection than by Christlike humility? Day 8: Matthew 22:36–40 Reflection: We are commanded to love God and to love one another. But what would our homes, our churches, and our communities truly look like if love became our loudest statement? What if we loved our neighbors intentionally and without condition? What if we released offenses quickly instead of rehearsing them? What if we were so secure in who God created us to be that comparison, jealousy, and striving lost their grip — and love flowed freely because we deeply understood how much love has already been poured out on us by God Himself? Day 9: John 15:1–8 Reflection: The fruit of our lives is the clearest evidence of Christ at work within us. Are we bearing fruit that reflects the character of Jesus — love, patience, humility, self-control — or are we producing fruit shaped by pride, anger, bitterness, resentment, or jealousy? Healthy, lasting fruit doesn’t happen by accident. It grows from connection. If we want our lives to reflect Him, we must remain attached to the Vine, abiding in His presence and truth. And we must be willing to let the Gardener prune us — even when it’s uncomfortable — trusting that His cutting is not to harm us, but to make us more fruitful. Day 10: Luke 9:23–25 Reflection: Following Jesus requires daily surrender. This passage is a daily reminder that taking up our cross and intentionally choosing to follow Him is what leads to true life. Surrender may feel costly, but it is the pathway to freedom. At the same time, Jesus warns us of a very real danger — we can gain everything this world offers and still lose our souls. Success, recognition, comfort, and achievement mean nothing if they come at the expense of our intimacy with Him. We must continually ask ourselves: am I pursuing temporary gain, or eternal life? Day 11 – John 12:1–8 Reflection: Mary poured out costly perfume. Love doesn’t calculate. Our worship should cost us something. He gave everything so that we might have life — and life abundantly — yet how often do we offer Him what’s convenient, what’s comfortable, what’s left over? True worship is not casual; it is intentional and sacrificial. He is worthy of our first, our best, our wholehearted devotion — not distracted praise or partial surrender. When we remember the fullness of what He gave, it compels us to respond with worship that is genuine, costly, and completely His. Day 12 – Matthew 21:1–11 Reflection: They praised Him in that moment — shouting “Hosanna” with the crowd — yet when pressure came and expectations shifted, many denied Him or quietly walked away. How often are we tempted to do the same? It’s easy to honor Him when faith is celebrated and we’re surrounded by others doing the same. But what about when doubt creeps in, when obedience feels isolating, or when following Him costs us something? Do we remain steady in our devotion, or do we blend back into the crowd when conviction grows uncomfortable? True allegiance is revealed not in the noise of public praise, but in the quiet moments when standing for Him requires courage. Day 13 – Matthew 21:12–13 Reflection: Jesus cleanses what has no place. Just as He overturned the tables in the temple, He still lovingly confronts what doesn’t belong in our hearts. What areas of my life need to be overturned — distractions, misplaced priorities, hidden compromise? He called the temple a house of prayer. When I enter His presence, do I come with a posture of reverence and surrender? Am I positioning my heart as a dwelling place of prayer, or have I allowed other things to take up sacred space meant for Him alone? Day 14 – Luke 22:14–20 Reflection: “This is My body… This is My blood.” These were not symbolic words spoken lightly — they were spoken by a Savior who knew exactly what He was about to endure. He told us to do this in remembrance of Him, to pause and reflect on the sacrifice He would make. And yet, how often do we approach communion and other sacred moments casually? Have we allowed familiarity to dull our reverence? What would shift if we truly slowed down and felt the weight, the cost, and the depth of what those words mean? Sacred things were never meant to become routine. Day 15 – Matthew 26:36–46 Reflection: “Not My will, but Yours.” We can hardly comprehend the depth of trust and surrender it took for Jesus to fully submit to the purpose set before Him. In the face of suffering, He chose obedience. Yet when we walk through our own trials, how quickly do we wrestle with control, fear, or doubt? What areas of your life are you still gripping tightly, struggling to fully surrender? The same Father Jesus trusted is the One we trust today. He is a God of promise — faithful, unwavering, and true to His Word. He never fails to accomplish what He declares. You can rest knowing that His plans are good, His timing is perfect, and His purposes will always prevail. Day 16 – Luke 22:47–62 Reflection: Even in failure, grace remains. Peter denied Jesus — not once, but three times — betraying the very One he had so boldly and faithfully followed. In a moment of pressure and fear, he faltered. Yet the beauty of this story far outweighs its brokenness. Because even before Peter ever failed, Jesus already knew — and He loved him anyway. He still chose the cross. He still chose sacrifice. He still chose Peter. What we see is not just human weakness, but divine mercy. A Savior who meets failure with forgiveness, shame with restoration, and fear with steadfast love. Day 17 – John 18:28–40 Reflection: Jesus stands before Pilate falsely accused, yet completely secure in who He is and why He came. He does not argue, panic, or attempt to defend His reputation; instead, He speaks with calm authority, declaring that His kingdom is not of this world. Though the situation appears out of control, Jesus knows the cross is not a disruption of His mission but the fulfillment of it. While Pilate questions truth, Jesus embodies it. This moment reveals a Savior unwavering in identity and purpose, reminding us that when we are rooted in God’s will, we too can stand firm and unshaken, even under pressure. Day 18 – Luke 23:32–49 Reflection: Father, forgive them. The weight of this moment is almost beyond comprehension. As Jesus hangs on the cross — beaten, suffocating, carrying the sin of the world — He still turns His attention to a thief beside Him and extends mercy: “Today you will be with Me in paradise.” In unimaginable pain, what felt like abandonment, and the crushing weight of suffering, He did not become consumed with Himself. He chose sacrificial love. He chose forgiveness. He chose invitation. If Christ could extend grace in His darkest hour, how much more are we called to forgive those who have wronged us? His mercy toward the thief becomes both our comfort and our conviction. Day 19 – John 19:28–30 Reflection: The debt is paid. Completely. Reflecting on the weight and reality of Christ’s sacrifice is almost more than our hearts can fully comprehend. That the Son of God would step into humanity and willingly lay down His life so that we could truly live stretches beyond human understanding. And yet, sometimes that very magnitude makes it hard for us to believe — that our debt is actually canceled, paid in full. There is nothing we could ever do to earn His love, nothing we could accomplish to secure right relationship with God. It was never about earning; it was always about grace. Out of the abundance of His great love, He gave everything. The price has been paid. The debt is forgiven. Our responsibility now is not to strive, but to live — as free people. No longer bound like slaves to sin, shame, or striving, but walking confidently in the freedom found in Christ Jesus. Day 20 – Matthew 27:57–66 Reflection: Saturday feels silent — but Sunday’s coming! The waiting seasons of our lives can feel heavy — even hopeless. Imagine the disciples between the cross and the resurrection: they had heard the promises and the prophecies, yet the brutal reality of Jesus’ death must have cast a deep darkness over their hearts. What felt like the end was actually part of the plan all along. God was not absent in the silence of Saturday; He was accomplishing redemption. In our own waiting, we often forget that just because God isn’t speaking loudly doesn’t mean He isn’t working powerfully. Waiting is not wasted — it is where faith is refined, character is formed, and trust is deepened. Even when we cannot see movement, He is orchestrating all things for our good and His glory. He is present. He is faithful. And He will finish what He has started. Day 21 – Matthew 28:1–10 Reflection: He is not here. He is risen. The stone was rolled away — not so Jesus could get out, but so we could see in. What a defining moment in history. If the cross had stood alone without an empty tomb, eternity would remain only a distant hope. But God. He sealed the promise of salvation through the death, burial, and resurrection of the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. Jesus is alive — seated at the right hand of the Father, interceding for you and for me. Because He lives, we are called to live like resurrected people — confident that we serve the God who makes a way where there is no way, the God of the impossible. Resurrection power is not just a story we celebrate; it is a reality we carry. We leave behind what is dead and step boldly into the hope we have in Christ, knowing the same Spirit that raised Jesus from the grave lives within us — giving wisdom, discernment, faith, and strength to walk out His purposes until He returns. This is the Awakening. And as a church, it is our honor and privilege to show the world what it means to dream bigger, pray wilder, and love louder — not because of who we are, but because of who Christ is in us.

Watch Previous messages The Awakening In Awakening, we stepped into a season of spiritual renewal—personally and as a church. This series challenged us to wake up to what God is calling us into, stirring our faith to dream bigger, pray wilder, and love louder. Through each message, we were reminded that God is always at work, inviting us to move from complacency to calling and from routine to purpose. PREVIOUS MESSAGES Good In Tension During this series, Good in Tension, we explored the reality that following Jesus doesn’t eliminate life’s struggles—it reframes them. Through Scripture, we looked at the tension between faith and doubt, grace and truth, and the Spirit and the flesh. Rather than running from pressure, we discovered how God uses it to shape our character, strengthen our faith, and anchor us in Him. This series reminded us that tension isn’t a sign of failure—it’s often the place where God is doing His deepest work. NEVER MISS A MESSAGE New messages drop every week on our YouTube channel.
