God’s Word And Daily Prayer For Today

Here we learn of God's judgments in the latter days; and the extent of these judgments. The prophet declares how God is going to exact justice upon those that took advantage of God’s people. He foresees the blessings God’s people, the church shall enjoy.

We learn from this event in biblical history how when God has grown weary of tolerating rebellion and disobedience that he takes action. The controversy or argument that God had then and still today is that those that announce themselves as God’s representatives in the earth give greater heed to rudiments of the world and secular wisdom than adhering to God’s plan for his people. Therefore, God di...

Daniel’s vision: Here we come to understand to some degree, metaphors and symbolism. God allowed Daniel to see destruction coming upon his people and his church. Principalities and Powers (Government leaders and church leaders) are corrupt and take advantage of the righteous people of God by forcing or compelling them to believe a lie and not the truth of God’s desire for humanity. Daniel saw the...

Ezekiel is taken out into the spirit by the Lord, to show him the abominations, the rebellion, the disobedience, and the idolatry of his chosen people. We should learn the just recompense of the Lord for the idol worship, rebellion, and disobedience. In my humble opinion, the many devastating things that are taking place today, like the spread of the pestilences from God; that is Covid, influenza,...

This portion of scripture epitomizes what was wrong and what is wrong today with the people of God and that is, we are too reactive, as opposed to being more proactive, when it comes to our obedience to God and His plan of salvation for humanity. There is an old adage that seems to be applicable here: “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure”.

Here we should learn that God was very displeased with His people. As then, even now, the people of God gradually move away from His instructions. Disobedience provoked God then and now, to bring adversity of one sort or another into the lives of His people. God reminded His people then of the great blessings He put in their lives and also now by these scriptures how He has been ignored and transg...

Here we find the eagle,eye prophet looking into the future of the church, seven centuries in the future. After all that Jesus did for humanity He was rejected by man and He is still rejected. But if He had not done what He did, we would not be saved today.

Here we find a reference to a young woman that wakes in the night and finds her lover gone. She got up in the night (meaning heaviness in the heart and soul), because her lover was gone. She inquired of the city’s watchmen to no avail. However, she did not stop searching for him until she found him. And when she did, he came displaying his glory. The wisdom here is for us today to seek the Lord, w...

In this passage of the scriptures we are encouraged to live our best lives, live our lives loving one another and without hate; live in obedience to the word of God, demonstrating the light of the knowledge of the Gospel of Jesus Christ while we have opportunity. For everyone of us there is an end coming and only God knows when.

Here we learn that through simplicity, and meekness, and walking in obedience, to the word of God, He will demonstrate his favor with us. We should teach this wisdom to the next generation.

Pride results from overvaluing ourselves and undervaluing others. It leads to restlessness because it makes us dissatisfied with what we have and concerned about what everyone else is doing. It keeps us always hungering for more attention and acclaim. By contrast, humility gets us to put others first and allows us to be content with God’s leading in our lives. Such contentment gives us security so...

Here we should learn, as did Job, no matter what befalls we should not allow it to change or shake our faith in God. Even though sometimes people will turn away from you, please learn from this don’t let your confidence in God waver; because we have hope of eternity with God, in glory. Sometimes the negativity we are confronted with and the ways we are treated by others is the divine requirements...

This is a chapter in a Bible story that depicts practicing the wisdom of God and taking courage to take a righteous stand your enemy will become victims of the plots they devised to do you harm. Don’t let your faith fail you and God will manifest His presence on your behalf.

From this passage of scripture, we should learn the wisdom of following through with God’s instructions. We should learn that when we do what God charges us to do, he will show us favor from himself, and from man. And in the final analysis, those that try to hold us down will have to look at us prosper, and they will have nothing to do with it and won’t benefit from it.

Today, as it was then we should ourselves, all of humanity that is, but especially those of the household of faith be thankful to God for raising up people out of the midst of us that cry to him with a repentant cry. Still today, of all the greatness that God provides for His people there is still great disobedience and rebellion. Nevertheless, God continues to love us and does not reward us with...

Here we should learn that when we the people of God seek Him in sincerity and in truth He gets joy. When He gets joy He will grant unto us the petitions that we require of Him. God rewards righteousness and reverence and obedience to Him. However, when we go away from following His instructions He will recompense us with His vengeance.

Here we should learn that when God enables us to recognize that He is making a change, and He is making choices in our life, we should not become bitter, but become aggressive in promoting God‘s plan. David went above and beyond in giving to build the house of the Lord, and he blessed the Lord for allowing his son to succeed him as king. Let us take this wisdom as we move forward to agree with God...

When there is rebellion against God and His people, and rejection of His instructions, it is fruitless to think that God will demonstrate mercy; unless there is true repentance. The king was sick, and rather than seeking God, he sought to idle gods. Therefore, the word from the Lord that he would not be delivered was proven true because he did not believe in God.

The wisdom here is to never allow yourself to be lured into philosophy or doctrine that contradicts what has been proven in your life. That is the truth of God learned from His Word, by the indwelling of the Christ of God. By this wisdom we learn and understand the intended purpose of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the courage to stand firm.

Saul goes after David, who again spares Saul's life. David exhorts Saul and Saul acknowledges his sin. We learn here that as believers we cannot and must not allow non-believers to make us act like them; in not following the desires of God. When we refuse to conduct our lives in ways that do not reflect reverence and respect for the will of God we are no better than those which persecute us. This...

We can learn here that God does not appreciate boasting and bragging. If we follow through with God’s commands and desires and if we make reparations for violations of the rule God he will turn away the indignation imposed upon humanity. As with the current indignation/pestilence/COVID-19 and inclement weather like hurricane Laura can be turned away or not do as much damage and harm if repentance...

Sometimes life seems so cold. But don’t give up on God; for in the case of the righteous, better days are coming. God is the all seeing eye, and is everywhere all the time; knowing everything all the time; and has the power to do anything; all the time. When Noami thought that she had lost it all she never waivered in her character causing her daughter in law Ruth to decree that she would never le...

This is another example of the agape’ love of our God. Even after he had punished His people for disobedience, idolatry, and rebellion with captivity by their enemies He provided a way for deliverance. The way of and the leader of deliverance was very unlikely, but look, we are talking about God. So hold fast to your faith and be courageous, you could be the one God chooses to ring deliverance to...

Obedience to God is the absolute answer for all that we do and be. Hide the word, the commandments of God in your heart and God will always be there for you; in the furnace, in the den, in the water, in the wind, even in quiet; with healing, deliverance, prosperity, and most importantly, salvation. God never fails.

In this excerpt from the book of Deuteronomy we learn and are admonished by God, to remain obedient to His instructions for prosperous living and sole worship of Him alone. If we follow the instructions of God He will withhold no good thing from us.
