Stay inspired in the word.

Greetings,

Do you remember when God found you and saved you? Some of us were in desperate situations and in need of immediate rescue. We were lost and perishing. Look at what God did:

Ezekiel 16:5-6 (NKJV) – “No eye pitied you, to do any of these things for you, to have compassion on you; but you were thrown out into the open field, when you yourself were loathed on the day you were born. [6] "And when I passed by you and saw you struggling in your own blood, I said to you in your blood, 'Live!' Yes, I said to you in your blood, 'Live!'

After the world had used and discarded us, God passed by. When we were struggling to survive, He said, “LIVE!” Ever since that day, we have been alive in Him. Oh, bless His Name!

Thank You, Lord, for speaking life into me when I was dead in trespasses and sins. You set me free from what had me bound. Thank You for saying to me, “LIVE!” You are breathing divine life into all that I do. My world has been changed because You are so good. Thank You for giving me life and that more abundantly!

Today, I’m worshiping with Leon Timbo and “Father, I Belong to You.”

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

Greetings,

When Adam and Eve sinned, they hid themselves from the Lord. Mankind has been doing the same thing ever since. We try to hide our weaknesses and failures from one another, and from God.

Every believer’s goal should be to do just the opposite. Our Heavenly Father wants us to be open and transparent with Him. It is to our own detriment when we try to hide our wrongs. After all, God sees it all anyway—and still loves us!

Proverbs 28:13 (NKJV) – “He who covers his sins will not prosper, But whoever confesses and forsakes them will have mercy.”

When we confess and forsake our sins and imperfections, God covers us with His mercy and grace. But if we try to hide our sins, we can’t prosper.

Father, I come to You openly admitting my imperfections and failures. Forgive me where I have sinned. Keep me covered by the precious blood of the Lamb. Help me to become more like You. Thank You for loving me the way You do, with a love that is accepting and eternal.

Today, I’m worshiping with the Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir and “That’s Why, God.”

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

Greetings,

Living in a broken world that’s filled with so much injustice can harden us. It’s so easy when we’ve been wounded and betrayed by those we love, to throw up walls around our hearts. Of course, those who hurt us are also victims of this broken, sin-scarred world. But listen to what God said:

Ezekiel 11:19-20 (NKJV) – “Then I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within them, and take the stony heart out of their flesh, and give them a heart of flesh, [20] that they may walk in My statutes and keep My judgments and do them; and they shall be My people, and I will be their God.”

God has promised to replace our heart of stone with a heart that’s tender toward Him and others. One of His greatest acts of grace is to make us ‘care’ again.

Father, soften our hearts. Help us to care about Your feelings and the many times we have sinned against You and those we love. We ask You to give us a heart that is tender and innocent, and to put a new spirit within us so we can truly be ‘Your’ people. Help us to give and receive love with open hearts.

Today, I’m worshiping with Micah Stampley and “Another Place.”

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

Greetings,

How would you like to be able to live the rest of your life and never lack a thing? God has committed Himself to provide for those who will seek His Kingdom of God and His righteousness first. By first seeking Him, we not only get to enjoy His Presence, but we get to experience everything else in life that has any value.

Psalm 34:10 (NKJV) – “The young lions lack and suffer hunger; but those who seek the Lord shall not lack any good thing.”

Isn’t that an amazing promise? We don’t have to worry about all the things that are constant concerns to others. Our Heavenly Father has promised that He will take care of us. Without being distracted by anxiety or worry, we get to focus on what really matters—knowing Christ!  

Lord, I am in awe of You and Your glorious majesty! To think that You would allow me to really know You is a mystery far greater than I could ever comprehend. Even more is the fact that if I’ll put You first, You will bless every other area of my life. What a promise. I love You so much!

Today, I’m worshiping with Geoffrey Golden and “Glory to the Lamb.”

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