Stay inspired in the word.

Greetings,

There is no greater name than the name of Jesus! Paul said,

Philippians 2:9-11 (NKJV) - “Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, [10] that at the name of Jesus EVERY KNEE SHOULD BOW, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, [11] and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.”

At the Name of Jesus every knee should bow!  That not only includes those things that are in heaven, but those things on and under the earth. Just as all of heaven must bow, everything we will ever face must bow before the name of Jesus—including those things that were planned against us in the corridors of hell.

The authority of the name of Jesus is greater than that of all governments and institutions combined. So, let me ask, what seems impossible to you? Financial distress … an illness … a loved one who is far from God … racial harmony … the restoration of your family? Whatever it is, it must bow to the Name that’s above every name! When you pray, use the Name of Jesus. Hell will tremble as you do!

Father, in the Name of Jesus, we come to You, believing that Your Kingdom power will come with authority into our broken world. That Name is greater than any other and when it is spoken, everything stands at attention. Prayers are answered, battles are won, sickness is healed and oppression flees when the beautiful Name of Jesus is called! As Your child, I call upon You today.

Today, I’m worshiping with Hillsong and “What a Beautiful Name It Is.

We love you and are praying for you. Be INSPIRED!

Greetings,

If God has our problem or situation covered, why should we worry about it? A better option is to try and conduct our lives in the very best way, then trust Him to do what He has promised. Most of our stressful situations are the result of forgetting what God has promised to do for us. We worry about things He has already declared that He would fix.

Matthew 6:25-26 (NKJV) - "Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? [26] Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?”

If our Heavenly Father even cares for the birds, Jesus reminds us, “Are you not of more value to Him than these small creatures?” In other words, why wouldn’t He also take care of you. You are His child!

Jesus, I am blessed by what You promised people that day. Birds don’t even know how to pray. They don’t know a single thing about farming. Yet You constantly watch over and provide for them. They don’t worry or stress out either. Help me to learn a valuable lesson from the things that You created all around me, and trust You! You are the God I trust and will never let me down. I praise You!

Today, I’m worshiping with the Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir and “Jesus It Is You.”

We love you and are praying for you. Be INSPIRED!

Greetings,

In today’s world, the ability to give honor has almost totally disappeared. People don’t just disagree with one another, they become so angry they hate anyone who does not share their point of view and often attack their character. They know little about honoring other human beings who have been created in the image and likeness of God. Yet, every promotion we long for is linked to our ability to give honor.

Matthew 10:41-42 (NKJV) – “He who receives a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet's reward. And he who receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man's reward. [42] And whoever gives one of these little ones only a cup of cold water in the name of a disciple, assuredly, I say to you, he shall by no means lose his reward."

If you receive a prophet as a prophet, you will receive a prophet’s reward. But aince a prophet is also a righteous man, you could also fail to honor him as a prophet and only receive him as a righteous man. The problem is that if you do, you will only receive a righteous man’s reward.

Of course, a prophet is also a disciple. You could further underestimate him by not receiving him as a prophet ora righteous man but only as a disciple. Even then an act as small as giving a disciple a cup of water, will guarantee that you receive a reward. God will repay you for your kindness. However your reward gets smaller as the honor you show becomes less.

The greater the honor you show, the greater your reward. Discernment matters.  As you can see, our rewards are dependent upon the measure of honor we give to others.

Jesus honored His disciples and demonstrated what He considered to be their true worth by kneeling and washing their feet. How well and how often do we honor each other?

Dear Lord, help me to have the discernment I need to see the value You find in people. Let me honor and show them respect. Help me to add value to their lives. Jesus, that’s what You did when we were sinners. You died for us. That’s the ultimate demonstration of honor.

Greetings,

My greatest calling is to be a worshiper of God. I will worship Him as long as I live. Then, when I get to heaven, I will worship our God for all eternity. I was born for this purpose, and I’m most fulfilled as a person when I am in His Holy Presence.

Psalm 57:9-11 (NKJV) – “I will praise You, O Lord, among the peoples; I will sing to You among the nations. [10] For Your mercy reaches unto the heavens, And Your truth unto the clouds. [11] Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; Let Your glory be above all the earth.”

No one can live in this broken world without being wounded, and receiving at least a few scars in the process. We have all faced our share of heartaches and loss; but worshiping God will take you through every one of those difficult times and situations. If you’ve never tried it, lean into Him the next time you come up against a big challenge. Worship God and watch how your problems shrink in comparison to His greatness.

Father, I look to You in worship. I bow before Your majesty and beauty. There is no one like You. You alone are the majestic King of Kings. You reign in majesty. You are my God, and I trust You.

Today, I’m worshiping with Phil Driscoll and “I Exalt Thee.”

We love you and are praying for you. Be INSPIRED!
