(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 promise in your heart, but there’s n...

(Psalm 20:4, NLT) May he grant your heart's desires and make all your plans succeed. We all have dreams we're believing for, but we may have hit some setbacks. Our dreams can get buried under discouragement, past mistakes, rejection, failure, and negative voices. It's easy to settle for mediocrity even when we have all this potential buried inside. Your dream may be buried, but it&a...

(Psalm 23:5, NKJV) "You anoint my head with oil; my cup runs over." In the Bible, oil is symbolic of the anointing of God. Do you know what oil does? It makes things flow. Whenever there is friction or something gets stuck, oil is used to lubricate it and make it more fluid. That’s what God wants to do for you. He wants to anoint your head with oil. When He does that, notice what David s...

(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 temper and...

Genesis 32:12, NLT "But you promised me, 'I will surely treat you kindly, and I will multiply your descendants until they become as numerous as the sands along the seashore--too many to count.'" In Genesis 32, when Jacob and his family were about to meet his brother, Esau, after many years of being estranged, Jacob believed that Esau might still seek revenge and kill him. Jacob...

Colossians 2:13–14, NIV When you were dead in your sins...God made you alive with Christ. He forgave us all our sins, having canceled the charge of our legal indebtedness, which stood against us and condemned us; he has taken it away, nailing it to the cross. Today, my message is really simple: God is for you, and the enemy is against you. You get to make the final choice. Which way will you go? B...

(Matthew 4:1, NLT) Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted there by the devil. In Matthew 3, when Jesus came up out of the water after His baptism, God spoke from heaven, saying, “This is My beloved Son.” It was a glorious moment, signaling the beginning of His ministry. You would think Jesus would immediately start teaching and healing, but instead He was led by the Spi...

1Sam 17.32 And David said to Saul, Let no man's heart fail because of him; thy servant will go and fight with this Philistine. David said to Saul ..... What a contrast a humble shepherd lad encouraging an experienced and successful warrior of Israel! Saul, the only giant of Israel (ch. 10.23), realized that he should have been the one to accept Goliath's challenge. But a guilty conscienc...

Psalm 133:2, NIV It is like precious oil poured on the head, running down on the beard, running down on Aaron's beard, down on the collar of his robe. In the Scripture, when they poured oil on the head of Aaron, the high priest, it flowed down to the rest of his body. This was symbolic. Oil represents favor, and when you're connected to people with favor, the more blessed they are, the m...

Psalm 18:29, AMPC For by You I can run through a troop, and by my God I can leap over a wall. People can't lock you out of your destiny. God is your doorkeeper--not your boss, not your banker, not your neighbor, not your critics, not your enemies. They may shut a door, but God can take you right through it. He can make things happen that don't make sense. He doesn't have to open it....

  Harden Heart: A new perspective If the heart becomes hardened, the eye becomes dry. Only unconditional grace can transform a hardened heart into a grateful heart. As theologian Karl Barth puts it, 'As the beloved of God, we have no alternative but to love him in return. Mark Galli Exodus 4:21 “And the LORD said unto Moses, When thou goest to return into Egypt, seethat thou do all those wond...

Ephesians 2:10, NKJV For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them. Jesus chose Peter to be one of His disciples even though he knew he was hot tempered, impatient, and would fail many times. He didn't choose him because he was perfect; He chose him because He had the blueprint for Peter's life. The messes di...

Psalm 23:6, NKJV Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life... In today's Scripture, the word "goodness" means God's favor. David was saying, "Surely favor follows me all my life." In effect, he was saying, "Favor is keeping enemies from defeating me. Favor is bringing promotion and opportunity." He didn't just think about it. He...

Isaiah 60:1, NKJV Arise, shine; for your light has come! And the glory of the LORD is risen upon you. Sometimes we are stuck in discouragement, stuck in the potholes of life, and feeling like a victim of our circumstances. Thoughts tell you, "Nothing good is in your future. You'll never get out of this." Recognize that's the enemy trying to get you into his territory. When you&...

Psalm 116:16, NLT O LORD, I am your servant; yes, I am your servant, born into your household; you have freed me from my chains. Imagine what you could become without the chains that are limiting you. What could you accomplish without that chain of fear and insecurity? What kind of relationship could you have without that chain of guilt, shame, and feeling wrong about yourself? How high could you...

Title: My Peace!  Colossian 3.15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful. The peace of Christ is here described, not as a static virtue, but as an active power. It enables man to live in tranquillity, undisturbed and trusting, amid the hardest circumstances of life. Christ, the source of this peace, becomes captain of the soul a...

Title: “Trust Your Unknown Future in the Hands of the Known God” Text: Psalm 84:11, NLT For the LORD God is our sun and shield. He gives us grace and glory. The LORD will withhold no good thing from those who do what is right. Sun .....God is the source of light, materially and spiritually ( Ps 27.1 A Psalm of David. The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strengt...

John 13:35, NKJV By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another. It's easy to write off someone because they don't believe as we do, they're making poor decisions, or they're against what we stand for. Too often we try to make them believe, but some things don't happen overnight. Their heart may not be open yet, but at the right time God...

Exodus 3:6, NIV Then he said, "I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob." In the Scripture, it talks about the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. I can understand how He is the God of Abraham, the father of our faith. I can understand how He is the God of Isaac, who was the miracle child of God's promise and extremel...

Consistency: steadfast adherence to the same principles, course, form. The word for the day is your: “Spiritual Highs Will Not Prevent Spiritual Lows” Then Jezebel sent a messenger unto Elijah, saying, so let the gods do to me, and more also, if I make not thy life as the life of one of them by tomorrow about this time. 1 Kings 19:2. {CTr 163.1} Had Elijah, knowing he had done the divine will, mai...

Psalm 23:6, NKJV Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life... In today's Scripture, the word "goodness" means God's favor. David was saying, "Surely favor follows me all my life." In effect, he was saying, "Favor is keeping enemies from defeating me. Favor is bringing promotion and opportunity." He didn't just think about it. He...

Proverbs 13:22, NIV A good person leaves an inheritance for their children's children... God's dream for you is that His blessings will be so amazing and abundant on your life that you have to pass them down to your children. You can't contain it all. He says that generational blessings are coming that you won't have room enough to receive. Increase that goes to your children,...

John 11:39, NLT "Roll the stone aside," Jesus told them. But Martha, the dead man's sister, protested, "Lord, he has been dead for four days. The smell will be terrible." In John 11, when Jesus showed up at Lazarus' house four days after he had died, Lazarus had been in the tomb so long that his body stunk. At times, we all have things in life that stink. Maybe a rela...

(2 Corinthians 5:7, NKJV) For we walk by faith, not by sight. In the Scripture, the life of a believer is compared to an eagle. It’s interesting that day after day, parent eagles sit on their eggs to keep them warm, unmoved by what’s not changing. They never feel the baby eaglets kick, and the eggs never grow any bigger. There’s no sign of life. But on day thirty-five, suddenly the eaglet starts p...

Proverbs 24:16, HCSB Though a righteous man falls seven times, he will get up... When life knocks you down, steps on you, takes your health, or squashes your dreams, you just have to get back up again. The way you win some battles is not by defeating them but by outlasting the opposition. You have comeback power. Some enemies are stubborn. You can't be weak and give up because it's not h...
