Jeremiah 32:17, NKJV Ah, Lord GOD! Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and outstretched arm. There is nothing too hard for You. In the Scripture, the original Greek word used for God's power is "dunamis." That's where we get the word "dynamite." Dynamite is used to level buildings and clear out whatever's in the way. God also says...

Psalm 27:10, NLT Even if my father and mother abandon me, the LORD will hold me close. In the Scripture, when the prophet Samuel came to Bethlehem to anoint one of Jesse's sons to be the next king, David was left out in the shepherds' fields. He didn't have his father's approval. For some reason Jesse saw David as being inferior to his other sons. He didn't see a king in D...

Isaiah 45:9, NLT "What sorrow awaits those who argue with their Creator. Does a clay pot argue with its maker? Does the clay dispute with the one who shapes it, saying, 'Stop, you're doing it wrong!'" The Scripture says that God is the potter and we are the clay. The potter takes a lump of clay and spins it on his wheel. The clay could say, "I'm tired of going in...

Joshua 5:12, NKJV Then the manna ceased on the day after they had eaten the produce of the land; and the children of Israel no longer had manna, but they ate the food of the land of Canaan that year. For forty years in the wilderness, the Israelites relied upon God's supernatural provision of manna for their survival every day. But they didn't realize the manna was only a temporary provi...

Genesis 35:18, NLT The baby's father, however, called him Benjamin (which means "son of my right hand"). In Genesis 35, just before Rachel died while giving birth, she was in so much pain and distress that she named the baby Ben-Oni, which means "son of my sorrow." Back in those days, a child's name set the direction for their life. She had pronounced that he would li...

Judges 5:12, NIV Wake up, wake up, Deborah! Wake up, wake up, break out in song! Arise, Barak! Take captive your captives... The prophet Joel said, "Wake up the mighty men!" I am here to wake up your dreams, wake up your talents, wake up your potential, wake up what God put in you. You may have let some circumstances convince you that it's never going to happen, but I believe you ar...

Psalm 119:91, TLB Your faithfulness extends to every generation, like the earth you created; it endures by your decree, for everything serves your plans. It's easy to get frustrated when things take much longer than we think they should. We all face delays, betrayals, and heartaches. A coworker lied about us, and it set us back. We ask God why it's happening and when He's going to c...

Galatians 6:9, NKJV And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart. It's easy to believe when we're seeing signs of what we're believing for. The test comes when you're praying, but the medical report isn't improving. You're doing the right thing, but your marriage isn't getting better. You know God put the pro...

Revelation 3:7, NIV What he opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open. We've all had times when we didn't get the promotion, the loan didn't go through, or a relationship didn't make it. We did our best, but the door closed. But God wouldn't allow the door to close if it was going to keep you from your destiny. We may not see how it can work out, but the Scr...

Hebrews 10:36, NLT Patient endurance is what you need now, so that you will continue to do God's will. Then you will receive all that he has promised. We know we need to have faith and believe right, but today's Scripture says we have need of patient endurance if we're going to see God's promises come to pass. Maybe you've been praying, believing, and being your best, but...

2 Peter 1:4, NLT And because of his glory and excellence, he has given us great and precious promises. These are the promises that enable you to share his divine nature... All of us have dreams we are believing for, but too often we get discouraged and quit believing for the fullness of what's in our heart. It's easy to water down what God promised us. "I don't like this job, b...

Romans 16:17, NIV I urge you, brothers and sisters, to watch out for those who cause divisions and put obstacles in your way that are contrary to the teaching you have learned. Keep away from them. We all have people who try to rile us up. They complain about the workplace, exaggerate problems, and spread gossip. They are troublemakers. If you allow them to draw you in, before long you'll be...

2 Timothy 1:6, NKJV Therefore, I remind you to stir up the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands. One of the saddest things would be to come to the end of life and wonder what we could have become. "What if I hadn't neglected to use the gift that God gave me? What if I had broken away from the people who were causing me to compromise? What if I had controlled my t...

Joel 3:10, NKJV Let the weak say, "I am strong." It's not enough to just believe a dream will come to pass or just think positively and hope something will happen. You have to take the next step and call it in. Words give life to our faith. The Scripture says let the weak say I am strong. It doesn't say let the weak say I am weak. Why? Because that's calling in more weakne...

Philippians 4:7, NIV And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. All through the day there's clutter coming your way--disappointments, drama, stress, worry, guilt, jealousy. That's why the Scripture tells us to guard our mind. You have to be proactive if you're going to keep your mind in peace. Quit dwelling on tho...

2 Samuel 7:18, NKJV Then King David went in and sat before the LORD; and he said: "Who am I, O Lord GOD? And what is my house, that You have brought me this far?" You may have a thousand excuses for why you can't accomplish your dreams and for why you should settle where you are because you've reached your limit. But God is saying to you what He said to Moses, "Is the arm...

2 Corinthians 4:8, NIV We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair. The apostle Paul went through all kinds of unfair situations. He was beaten with rods, falsely accused of crimes, lied about by others, put in prison for years, and shipwrecked. He could have been overwhelmed and crushed under the pressure. Yet he is the one who wrote, "Thanks be to God w...

1 Peter 5:10, MSG The suffering won't last forever. It won't be long before this generous God who has great plans for us in Christ--eternal and glorious plans they are!--will have you put together and on your feet for good. He gets the last word; yes, he does. When you go through difficulties you don't understand, remind yourself that God is your heavenly Father. If you have childre...

Job 23:8, NKJV Look, I go forward, but He is not there, and backward, but I cannot perceive Him. Everything was going great in Job's life, but then the bottom fell out. In a very brief period of time, he lost his health, his business, and his family. He didn't understand it. He was a man of great integrity and faith. He was doing the right thing and the wrong thing happened. His friends...

1 Peter 3:22, MSG Jesus has the last word on everything and everyone, from angels to armies. He's standing right alongside God, and what he says goes. We all have situations that look like they're never going to work out. It's easy to get discouraged and think it's over. But God has the final say. The medical report may be bad, but it's not the last word. What God says goe...

Psalm 138:8, NLT The LORD will work out his plans for my life--for your faithful love, O LORD, endures forever. When Moses led the two million Israelites out of slavery into the desert and toward the Promised Land, I can imagine them asking him, "What route are we going to take? Where are we going to get food and water? How will we protect ourselves?" Moses answered, "I don't k...

When Moses led the two million Israelites out of slavery into the desert and toward the Promised Land, I can imagine them asking him, "What route are we going to take?

1 Kings 8:56, NLT Praise the LORD who has given rest to his people Israel, just as he promised. Not one word has failed of all the wonderful promises he gave through his servant Moses. We all face situations that look like they'll never change. We have bigger things in our spirit, and we know what God promised, but it seems like we've reached our limit in our career. Our bank account say...

Colossians 3:12, MSG So, chosen by God for this new life of love, dress in the wardrobe God picked out for you: compassion, kindness, humility, quiet strength, discipline. As a parent, sometimes you pick out clothes for your children to wear. Our heavenly Father has picked out something for us to wear--kindness, compassion, humbleness, being disciplined. When you are kind, people are drawn to you....

Luke 19:9–10, NIV Jesus said to him, "Today salvation has come to this house, because this man, too, is a son of Abraham. For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost." In Luke 19, a despised tax collector named Zacchaeus had heard how Jesus healed the sick and opened blind eyes. When Jesus stopped in the crowded street to speak to him, time stopped for Zacchaeus. He expected Jes...
