Big Ups Daily Dose Family!

I’ve got a confession to make… I absolutely LOVE reggae music!

It’s my favorite genre of music, and once those reggae vibes start flowing, something just happens to my soul. The rhythm, the bass, the message, the laid-back groove—it’s medicine for me!
But every now and then, I suffer from a serious condition called REGGAE MYLITIS! 😂

The symptoms are easy to recognize: I start craving that bass line, looking for my reggae playlist, feeling the rhythm in my spirit, and wanting to be surrounded by nothing but good reggae music!

And there’s only ONE known cure for this condition:
A GOOD REGGAE FESTIVAL!

Give me some sunshine, good people, positive vibes, and some sweet reggae music, and I’ll be alright!

Reggae isn’t just music to me—it’s a feeling!

If you’ve found yourself stuck lately, don’t panic. Today’s Daily Dose might be the tow truck your soul needs.

The Daily Dose

Jesus Will Fix It

At 2:35 a.m., I was wide awake with the song “He’ll Fix It” by Tim Rogers playing in my mind. It’s times like this that I believe the Holy Spirit is delivering a special message to me, so I hurriedly have to get the message out of my head so I can go back to sleep.

You see, my dad, William V. Porter, was a man who could fix almost anything. If something was broken, Daddy had a way of figuring it out. I had confidence in him because I knew that if Daddy said he could fix it, somehow, someway, he would.

As I thought about that this morning, I realized something: I need to have that same confidence in my Heavenly Father.

Just as my earthly father had the ability to fix things that were broken, my Heavenly Father has the ability to fix the broken areas of my life.

There are some things I may not know how to fix. Some situations are beyond my ability. Some problems may have me wondering, “How in the world am I going to get through this?”

But Jesus is reminding me: “I can fix it.”

I simply have to trust Him.
Sometimes we spend so much time trying to figure out how Jesus is going to fix it that we forget that our responsibility is simply to have faith in the One who can.

Daddy taught me confidence through what he could do with his hands. Jesus is teaching me confidence through what He can do with my life.

So today, whatever is broken, whatever is troubling you, whatever seems impossible to repair, put it in the hands of Jesus.

Jesus will fix it!

Now I can go back to sleep.

“Don’t miss the message while trying to figure out the Messenger.™ Y’all better stay with me—I’m going somewhere with these inspirations. Have a fantastic Friday. Let’s go!”

The Daily Dose: Command the morning

Job 38:12
In that verse, God asks Job, "Have you commanded the morning since your days began, and caused the dawn to know its place?

”This wasn’t a literal instruction for Job to control the sunrise—it was a divine challenge.

God was reminding Job of His sovereignty and creative power. Job had questioned God’s justice amid suffering, so the Lord responded by revealing how vast His authority truly is—even over the rhythm of day and night.

Spiritually, many believers interpret this verse as a call to speak life and authority into each new day. "Commanding the morning” symbolizes aligning your words and faith with God’s will at the start of the day—declaring blessings, peace, and purpose before anything else can take shape.

In short, God's question showed Job his human limits. Our response today turns that awareness into action — using prayer and confession to set the tone for the day.

Have a spirit-filled Sunday.

Whether your gift is serving, teaching, encouraging, leading, giving, showing mercy, or speaking truth—there is a place for you in this spiritual gym.

No intimidation. No comparison. Just growth, purpose, and spiritual strengthening.

Many people spend hours in the gym exercising their muscles so they can become stronger. On some days they focus on their arms, while on other days they work on their legs, chest, or back. The goal is simple: strengthen the muscles that will help them perform at their best.

The same principle applies to our spiritual lives.

Before you can strengthen your spiritual gift, you must first know what your gift is. God has uniquely equipped each of us with gifts and talents to serve His Kingdom. Just as physical muscles become weak when they are not used, spiritual gifts become stronger when they are exercised.

In the physical world, some people rely on workout programs like Body by Jake to develop stronger muscles. But when it comes to building spiritual muscles, we need a different program—Body by Jesus. His Word is our training manual. Prayer is our conditioning exercise. Faith is our endurance training. Obedience is our daily workout.

In Romans 12, Paul identifies several spiritual gifts:

Prophecy
Serving
Teaching
Encouraging (Exhortation)
Giving
Leadership
Mercy

Each gift has a purpose, and every believer has been given at least one gift to help build up the body of Christ. The more we use our gifts, the stronger they become and the greater impact they have on those around us.

As I finish writing this inspiration, I must admit that it has made me a little tired because I've been exercising my mental muscles. Yet I am reminded that growth only comes through use. Whether physical, mental, or spiritual, muscles become stronger when they are exercised consistently.

"Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, let us use them." — Romans 12:6

So here's today's Daily Dose question:

Do you know what your spiritual gift is?

Stay tuned for the Do you know your spiritual gift(s) series starting Thursday, July 30th.

Have a terrific Tuesday.
Let's go!
