Daily Inspirations by Rev. Dr. Precious prothro

Legacy: A Call to Live Righteously


The loss of Malcolm-Jamal Warner is both tragic and deeply felt. As a teen, I watched the light he brought to our culture and the world—not just as an actor doing a job, but as someone who felt like part of our lives. His music, acting, intelligence, and quiet presence all carried a light that touched many. May he rest in peace.


In an interview recorded just a month ago, he was asked what he wanted his legacy to be. His answer was simple: “I want people to know I was a good person.”


When I think about my own legacy, being a “good person” is important too. For me, good doesn’t mean perfect—it means living in the righteousness of God. It’s showing respect and godly love to others (1 John 4:7-8), helping where I can (Hebrews 6:10), and, above all, loving and obeying God (John 14:15).


None of us know the day or hour when the Lord will call us home. So each day, we must strive to live in a way that pleases Him—not perfectly, because only One was ever perfect—but with a heart that pursues holiness and righteousness.


Prayer: Lord, help us live each day as a reflection of You. Teach us to love deeply, serve selflessly, and walk in Your righteousness so that when our time comes, our lives will point others toward You. Amen.

Obedience, Gratitude, and Wholeness


Yesterday during our service, one of our pastors spoke from Luke 17, the story of the ten lepers. She highlighted a powerful part of verse 14: “And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed.”


The healing didn’t happen when they stood still. It came as they went—as they obeyed the instructions Jesus gave them.


Then, in verse 19, we see something even deeper. Only one leper returned to glorify God and thank Jesus. To him, Jesus said, “Your faith has made you whole.”


There’s a difference between being cleansed and being made whole. Cleansing removes what’s harming you; wholeness gives or restores what is needed or has been lost. And the key to stepping into both is simple but powerful: obedience and gratitude.


But here’s the challenge: we can’t walk in obedience if we can’t hear His voice, and we can’t hear His voice when our spiritual space is filled with noise—fear, distractions, pride, or busyness. First, we must quiet the noise. Then we can hear, obey, and give thanks. And when we do, God not only cleanses us… He makes us whole.


What distractions do I need to clear today so I can hear God’s instructions and walk in obedience?


Prayer: Lord, help me to quiet the noise around me so I can hear You clearly. Strengthen me to walk in obedience, even when the outcome isn’t immediate, and remind me to give You glory and thanks in all things. May I not only be cleansed but made whole in every area of my life. Amen.

May the Work I’ve Done Speak for Me


That old song has been in my spirit today as I reflect on celebrating a dear friend’s retirement. Everyone who spoke about her shared how her light has touched so many lives. And when she spoke, she said multiple times that she only aimed to do God’s work. 

If people gathered to speak about us, what would they say? More importantly, when we stand before God, what will He say?


When we reach the end of this chapter—or even the end of life itself—will we, like Paul, be able to declare: “I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith” (II Timothy 4:7)?


Hebrews 6:10 reminds us: “For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name.” Our reward may not always come from man, but it will surely come from God.


Reflection: If today were your celebration, what would your works say about you?


Prayer: Lord, help us to live each day knowing that we are a purpose for You. Each day we choose how we live, serve, and love. Help us remember that fulfilling our purpose requires not just faith, but effort. We will work to be mindful that serving our purpose and serving and loving others in a way that honors You is what is most important. May we commit our words and deeds to honoring You, working diligently and intentionally so that when our race is finished, we can hear You say, “Well done.” Amen.
