A Fresh Faith in the Philippines

May 01, 2025

Prayer Points

  • Pray for recommitment – That believers who have lost their faith will return wholeheartedly to Jesus.
  • Pray for boldness – That those who hear God’s Word in the Philippines will follow Him, no matter the cost.
  • Pray for transformation – That lives will be renewed by the gospel.

Starting over can feel overwhelming. But with God, it’s always possible—and always powerful.

Have you ever had to recommit your life to the Lord? Maybe you’ve been through a season where you were distant from the Lord or you stepped away altogether. If that’s you, or someone you love, be encouraged. God never stops calling us back. 

That’s the theme of today’s listener story from the Philippines, a country where Christianity is widespread, yet spiritual complacency can sometimes settle in. Many, like today’s listener, grew up in faith but needed a fresh encounter with God’s Word to reignite their passion.

God is stirring hearts in the Philippines. He’s drawing people away from superficial faith into a deep relationship with Jesus Christ. And when that happens, it changes everything.

Be encouraged by this testimony from a listener to the Tagalog program:

“I’m thankful to God for THRU the BIBLE. Through the years, the program has blessed thousands, including me. I was a very young believer, fresh out of college, when I first listened to the program when my family migrated to the United States. After a year, I went back to my native country of the Philippines for some seminary training. Here I once again listened to the program on the radio. Dr. McGee’s no-nonsense preaching of God’s Word drew me to tune in to him every day. It was also through his teaching that I rededicated my life to the Lord and decided to follow Jesus no matter the consequences.”

We praise God for His work in this listener’s heart—a renewed faith, a rededicated life, and the courage to follow Jesus. Let’s thank Him today for how He’s using THRU the BIBLE programs in the Philippines. 

Let this story be a mirror for us, too. Is there an area in your life that needs recommitting to the Lord? Has God been nudging you to surrender more fully, to follow Him more closely? If so, respond in faith. Then join us in prayer for those in the Philippines who are hearing the same call.

Engage with THRU the BIBLE

Listen to THRU the BIBLE programs and share them with others: TTB.Bible. We also invite you to explore more stories of how God is moving in the Philippines and beyond!


The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance. – 2 Peter 3:9
