Stay inspired in the word.

Greetings,

Problems can seem overwhelming. Sometimes we simply don’t know what to do. That’s when we must stand in faith! What the Bible calls “evil days” will come to everyone. They did to Jesus. In this broken world, life can weigh heavily upon us. It might even seem like there is no way to escape from our challenging dilemma. That’s when we should plant both our feet firmly on the ground and say, “God, I’m still going to trust You!”

Ephesians 6:13 (NKJV) – “Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.”

Dear Jesus, would You give me grace this day to stand in Your Word, to stand faith, to stand in love, and to stand in forgiveness! Sometimes it’s difficult to keep believing. My emotions can get in the way. My own will and thoughts can hinder me, but I want to stand for You. You took a stand for me and gave Your all for us. I want to do the same for You. I love You, my Lord.

Greetings,

Because of His love for us, God continually watches over His people.

Psalm 33:18-19 (NKJV) – “Behold, the eye of the LORD is on those who fear Him, On those who hope in His mercy, [19] to deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.”

In this verse, the word “fear” means reverential awe. God not only will protect those who are in ‘awe’ of Him, but when we live each day in reverence, we also experience His abundant mercy and grace. Even though the enemy of our souls often comes to attack us, God keeps right on protecting and providing for us!

So, don’t be afraid! God will bless and keep you alive in famine. He will provide for you and your family, no matter how severe the drought may be!

Thank You, Lord, for loving me so much. You are my Provider and my Deliverer. By Your grace I stand and I am delivered from every adversity. I trust You completely and love You more than words can express!

Greetings,

Even though Israel had sinned and moved out from the protection of God’s grace and favor, allowing enemies to attack them, God grieves when His children suffer. Even after they walked away, each time that His people returned to Him, God always accepted them back. Aren’t you glad that if we return to Him after we’ve messed up, God will still hear our cry for help?

God also promised to deliver His people and allow them to once again “possess their possessions.” In other words, when they returned to God, He promised to restore what they had lost because of their sinful actions. Listen to Obadiah’s message of hope:

Obadiah 1:17 (NKJV) - "But on Mount Zion there shall be deliverance, And there shall be holiness; The house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.”

Thank You, Lord, for loving and caring for Your people. Even though we often mess up and do wrong, I’m grateful that You quickly accept our sincere prayers of repentance. You alone can restore what the enemy has stolen from us. I thank You for loving us so much!

Today, I’m worshiping with Kurt Carr and “For Every Mountain.”

Greetings,

How well do You know God? Have you ever really considered what type of person He is? Have you thought about His character, what He represents, what He stands for, and His true nature?

Years ago, Pilate pondered these same thoughts:

John 18:38 (NKJV) – “What is truth?" And when he had said this, he went out again to the Jews, and said to them, "I find no fault in Him at all.”

The answers to our questions about God can be found in Word. To know Him better, there is no substitute for reading His Word. What people “feel” about God is often not even accurate. Human feelings are notoriously unreliable! What people think about God isn’t sufficient. That’s because His thoughts are as high above our thoughts as the heavens are above the earth.

A great way to learn more about God is to study His Word daily. Try joining a program that will help you read through the Bible in a year. Another way to better understand Him is to pray the Psalms each day. You’ll soon begin to sense the Holy Spirit Spirit drawing so much closer. When you truly know Him, you’ll have to agree with Pilate, “I find no fault in Jesus.”

Father, thank You for the truth that I find in Your Word. It is where I learn about You. Help me to know You better and to become more like You. I long to know You more. What I have already learned about You whets my thirst and causes me to seek to know more. You are too wonderful for words. You are the best thing that has ever happened to me.
