All The Attention You Need

Remember, no back seat drivers when God is driving!

Today's Scripture

"When you practice some appetite-denying discipline to better concentrate on God, don't make a production out of it. It might turn you into a small-time celebrity but it won't make you a saint. If you 'go into training' inwardly, act normal outwardly. Shampoo and comb your hair, brush your teeth, wash your face. God doesn't require attention-getting devices. He won't overlook what you are doing; he'll reward you well.” Matthew 6:16-18 Msg.

Today's Word

It’s incredible to imagine that God constantly seeks fellowship with us. We don’t have to go through rituals and long-winded prayers to simply share our day with God. Do you know God loves ball games, vacations, swimming, camping, dining and dancing? His Word is so clear when it says, “In all your ways acknowledge Him.” That means, include God in your day and He’ll give you all the attention you need.

A Prayer For Today

Heavenly Father, Wow! To think I can hang with you today and every day without going through some misguided and ritualistic mumbo jumbo that I’m sure makes You raise a brow saying, “Come to me and I’ll give you rest, you don’t need to do all the rituals, just come!” Thank you Father! In Jesus Name – Amen.

Time To Get Off Your But

Your own wrong thinking can keep you from God's best.

Today's Scripture

Moses answered God, "But why me? What makes you think that I could ever go to Pharaoh and lead the children of Israel out of Egypt?" (Exodus 3:11 The Message)

Today's Word

Do you know that one of the tricks of the enemy is to try and convince you that God’s Word has no power or truth over your life today? He will use every tactic he can to provoke you into speaking curses over your blessings. For example, a person is diagnosed with a certain illness and miraculously God heals them. Instead of acknowledging God you may hear something like, “But, what if it comes back again?” Or a marriage is restored only to hear the words, “But, I don’t know how long it will last this time.” Or maybe you have heard this one, “He got a job, but let’s see how long he can keep it!” Words like these are poisonous; they contaminate the air God has given us to breath and they actually rob you of God’s joy. Learn to leave the “buts” behind you and stand in agreement with God by speaking His Word over every area of your life. I encourage you to get into God’s Word [The Bible] and learn to be what it says you can be, learn to do what it says you can do, and learn to live the life you were designed to live, you’ll notice a difference almost immediately and the rewards are great, you’ll leave the “buts” behind.

A Prayer for Today

Heavenly Father, Your Word refreshes me every day. It shows me I have so much more than I ever dreamed of when I spend time meditating on Your promises and truths. Teach me today that which You would have me learn that I may be all You created me to be. In Jesus Name – Amen.

Get into Position

You have not because you ask not!

Today's Scripture

If a child asks his father for a loaf of bread, will he be given a stone instead? If he asks for fish, will he be given a poisonous snake? Of course not! And if you hardhearted, sinful men know how to give good gifts to your children, won't your Father in heaven even more certainly give good gifts to those who ask him for them? Matthew 7:9-11 - TLB


Today's Word

God wants you to have all that He has created and provided for you, it’s already within your reach, but you need to get yourself into position to receive it. When you pray or have a conversation with God, He wants you to be yourself, that’s the first position. Then, learn to open up to Him and speak with Him like He is a real person, because guess what? He is real! That’s the second position. Then, whatever your need (not your want), tell Him and then leave the giving to Him, not the taking to you. That’s the third position. You see, God wants you to trust Him with every area of your life, not just the parts you want, but every area. If you’re a parent, don’t you want your child to speak with you openly? If they should have a legitimate need, wouldn’t you want them to share that with you? You may think it wrong to ask God for something, but the only wrong is you’re thinking that God is not interested in every part of your life. When some people think of God they think of a suffering God, a faraway God and a non-understand God, and that’s why so many lack so much, because they really don’t know God the way He wants them to know Him. The Word of God reveals Him as loving, giving and ever present just for you. He is your Shield in time of battle, your Physician when wounded and your Provider when in need. God is all you will ever need to enter into forever, so no matter what your challenge, your hope or dream, let God in on it one-hundred percent, and watch how different the outcome is.
If you were sick, would you think it wrong to ask God to heal you, that maybe He is unable? If your family is dysfunctional, would you think it wrong to ask God to intervene, that He wasn’t qualified? If your business is declining, would you think it terrible to ask God to help because He wouldn’t understand? If your marriage is on the rocks, would you think God was unqualified or incapable to restore it? Of course not! Get into the right position and talk to God, you’ll be so glad you did. And don’t forget to thank Him as your blessings come one-by-one. Your position will determine the outcome.

A Prayer for Today

Heavenly Father, I come to You and open my heart, share my dreams and ask Your intervention in my challenges. I lift my loved ones to You, my health to You, my finances to You and my every day to You, You are my God, my Provider and my Strong Tower and I long to be near to You in every area of my life. Thank You for being so patient with me, so inviting and so comforting. In Jesus Name – Amen.

Looking Back Can Mess You Up!

Don't let anyone take your joy today - It was given as a gift from God.

Today’s Scripture

But Lot's wife looked back as she was following along behind him and became a pillar of salt.
Genesis 19:26 - TLB

Today’s Word

Ever notice the difference in the size of your vehicle’s rearview mirror verses the size of your windshield? In moving forward the emphasis is on where you’re going; not where you’ve been. Keep focused on all that God has in store for you, there’s so much to look forward to. People who continuously look back can’t appreciate where God is taking them, their focus is wrong and eventually they run into problems. God has created you to go so much further, to see and do so much more, and to travel far beyond your expectations or dreams, regardless, of where you have come from, or what you have left behind. So, stay focused on where you’re going and enjoy the journey, there is so much more ahead.

A Prayer for Today

Heavenly Father, my eyes are focused not on what I see, but in what You have promised, and I believe with all of my heart that my best is yet to come. Thank you for each new day and for each new opportunity that comes my way, I’m looking forward to all there is to come. In Jesus Name – Amen.

Remain Teachable

God doesn't want 99% of you - He wants ALL of you!

Today’s Scripture

“And it is he who will supply all your needs from his riches in glory because of what Christ Jesus has done for us. Now unto God our Father be glory forever and ever. Amen.” (Philippians 4:19-20 – TLB)

Today’s Word

Maturity is seen at many different levels in our lives, we are not all at the same place at the same time, we are where we want or desire to be. Try and always remain teachable having a desire to spiritually mature more and more each day, and as you do, you will prosper far beyond your expectations or what others may care to understand .
When you do something, do it for the Lord and the Lord Himself will repay you over and over again, His Word promises He will supply ALL of your needs according to His riches in glory. A Christian’s goal should be that of A Servant of the Lord. So in everything you do, do it for Him and you can be sure He will do everything for you.

A Prayer for Today

Heavenly Father, in everything I do, I do it for You. In Jesus Name – Amen.

Speak Blessings

Be careful what you pray for

Today’s Scripture

“For if you give, you will get! Your gift will return to you in full and overflowing measure, pressed down, shaken together to make room for more, and running over. Whatever measure you use to give-large or small-will be used to measure what is given back to you." Luke 6:38 - TLB

Today’s Word

I know a man that seems to have everything monetarily and spiritually and I once had resentment towards this man; I knew he didn’t need anything, so I certainly never prayed for him. Then one day I asked God to teach me how to pray. Over and over again I would ask, “Lord, teach me to pray the way You want me to pray.” Then years later He answered me with these words, “I want you to pray for that man you seem to resent, the one who has everything. Pray for him as though you love him; pray that he would have increase and a good life, pray that he might have more joy, fulfillment and peace.” I thought I was going crazy, but in my heart, I knew this could only be the voice of God telling me to bless someone I didn’t even like. So, I began to pray, “Father I speak words of increase over “so-and-so’s” life. Give him health, prosperity, covering over his family and business, and a good life.” Then, all of a sudden as the words left my mouth I realized, I was actually speaking blessings over my own life and family. When you give to others, friend you are actually giving to yourself. Whatever measure you use in giving will be used in measuring what comes back to you. Begin speaking favor over the lives of others, even those you don’t like. Speak healing, prosperity, goodness and Salvation over them and watch what happens in your own life. You will reap exactly what you sow, blessings heaped upon blessings. I speak increase over every area of your life!

A Prayer for Today

Heavenly Father, I speak increase in the lives of those who read this today, I speak prosperity over every area of their life, their health, businesses, families and loved-ones. Father, give them years of goodness, mercy and increase that they might increase others. In Jesus Name. – Amen.

The Hearts Cry

Live Your Dreams

Today’s Scripture

“Little children, you are of God [you belong to Him] and have [already] defeated and overcome them [the agents of the antichrist], because He Who lives in you is greater (mightier) than he who is in the world.” (1 John 4:4 – Amplified Bible)

Today’s Word

Do you know that you were not designed for stress, anger, worry or fear? That’s why we have such a difficult time coping with it. You were created and designed for joy, peace and love. Within the human heart lies a very special component (a spiritual homing device which can’t be seen, but it’s there) which longs for relationship with our Heavenly Father, much like a homing pigeon longs to return to its home when released. The human heart craves joy, peace and love but sometimes the flesh gets in the way in our attempt to achieve our quest. Often misguided stimulants such as liquor, drugs, tobacco, sex, and any host of mind and spirit altering agents are mistakenly used to try and achieve that gratification which the human heart so longs for, peace. In the final analysis, misguided mechanisms used to attempt and achieve peace and comfort ultimately end up bringing extreme opposition to your hearts cry. What does all that mean? Only a personal relationship with God (your Creator) can give you the joy, peace and love He designed you for. One of the reasons people cannot take stress, anger, worry or fear is very evident. You weren’t designed for it! If you really want to achieve your life’s purpose, seek your Heavenly Father more than you seek anything else, and His joy, His peace and His love will become yours in every area of your life. Learn to follow your heart, and not your flesh, and your heart’s desire will be fulfilled.

A Prayer for Today

Heavenly Father, show me the way, that I may walk with You! Help me to open my heart more and more as You fill it full of Your joy, Your peace and Your love. In Jesus’ Name – Amen.

This Year

Today is the day!

Today’s Scripture

“How differently I feel now! When someone becomes a Christian, he becomes a brand new person inside. He is not the same anymore. A new life has begun!”
(2 Cor 5:16-17 TLB)

Today’s Word

Today can be the beginning of an incredible year for you. Make one resolution that you’re going to stick to no matter what. Just say, “This year I’m going to learn to trust God in every area of my life!” Then, live life full of expectation as you give, share, laugh, encourage others, forgive, understand and pray for those you know and those you do not know (someone you just past on the street). Learn to wish the best for others, to share in their joy and feel their pain, and above all else treat others the way God has treated you, with love, understanding and forgiveness over and over again. Do this, and you will have a great year that is filled with the joy that can only come from our Heavenly Father.

A Prayer for Today

Heavenly Father, it’s so liberating learning to live my life as you intended it to be. Trusting You frees me in such a way that I’m beginning to actually enjoy my life. Show me more Father, how to really live the life You created me for. As the eagles wings open to soar the heavens, open my heart that I might be lifted to where You want me to be. In Jesus’ Name – Amen.

The Stone

There Are No Justified Resentments

Today’s Scripture

Cast your burden on the Lord [releasing the weight of it] and He will sustain you; He will never allow the [consistently] righteous to be moved (made to slip, fall, or fail). (Psalm 55:22 - The Amplified)

Today’s Word

Doctors say that excess weight is dangerous to your health and wellbeing, and it's been proven over and over again that carrying burdens can actually weigh you down, like carrying a large stone around your neck day in and day out. As you labor, carrying nonsensical burdens (those you cannot change), just like any other overload, it begins to affect your physical health and eventually your psychological and spiritual wellbeing. It has been proven scientifically; time and time again, that stress and worry are linked directly to certain cancers, pulmonary and cardiac diseases, stroke, High Blood Pressure, diabetes and the weakening of the body's immune system. You were not designed to carry excess weight or burdens, and that's why the psalmist writes, "Give your problems to God and He will take care of everything." Just say, "Lord I'm having a very difficult time carrying this load, therefore, I'm giving it all to You, You'll know what to do with it!" Then, begin to live as God intended, free from anything that holds you back from being all He created you to be. So friend, today make it your business to cooperate with God trusting that He knows His business. It's time to get rid of the stone!

A Prayer for Today

Heavenly Father, today I'm giving you any burden I have, which I alone cannot change, for I know You love me and will take care of all of my needs just as You always have. Thank You Father for Your patience as I continue to grow and mature more and more each day. In Jesus' Name - Amen.

Invest in your future

In The Time of Need, Sow A Seed

Today’s Scripture

“Bring all the tithes into the storehouse so that there will be food enough in my Temple; if you do, I will open up the windows of heaven for you and pour out a blessing so great you won't have room enough to take it in! "Try it! Let me prove it to you! Your crops will be large, for I will guard them from insects and plagues. Your grapes won't shrivel away before they ripen," says the Lord Almighty. "And all nations will call you blessed, for you will be a land sparkling with happiness. These are the promises of the Lord Almighty.” (Malachi 3:10-12 – TLB)

Today’s Word

Do you know that when you plant seeds of goodness, kindness, forgiveness, gifts, talents and money you’re actually making deposits into your “Eternal Bank Account”?

God honors your intentions and generosity each time you sow in His likeness by faith. God is an incredible giver, and you were created in His image to mirror His likeness. You were saved to bring others to Christ through your time, talent, gifts and resources. For example, each time you “tithe” you’re not giving to the church or the pastor; you’re giving to the needs of the church to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The tithe is intended to pay the expenses of the ministry just as in any corporations operating expenses. When you give of your time and talent, you’re giving to the spreading of “The Gospel”, because others in some way are being administered the love of God. As you deposit into your “account” God is keeping a record of each transaction, and when you need the dividends the most, He releases with multiple and compounded interest. Twenty years down the road you may have a financial need and out of nowhere someone will bless you, that’s a dividend paid from your deposit years earlier. When you have favor found over you and it seems unexplainable, it’s a dividend paid from your deposit years earlier. If you haven’t already, become a depositor of your “Eternal Bank Account” today, and when you need it most, God will release dividends beyond your comprehension. You can count on that!

Today’s Scripture

Heavenly Father, today I’m putting You first, giving You my best, as did Abel before me. And as I do, I know that all of my needs will always be met. In sickness and in good times, when I’m up and when I’m down, I know that You will always meet my needs according to Your riches and glory. May all of the glory be given to You, for You alone are my Provider, my Sustainer and my Healer. Praise Your Name forever! In Jesus Name – Amen.

New Beginnings

Start Believing for More

Today’s Scripture

“For I'm going to do a brand new thing. See, I have already begun! Don't you see it? I will make a road through the wilderness of the world for my people to go home, and create rivers for them in the desert!” (Isaiah 43:19:20 – TLB)

Today’s Word

It’s already the first full week of the New Year. New goals, new resolutions, new relationships and new opportunities are surely on the horizon, it’s an exciting time in your life and God wants you to experience the fullness of all He has in store for you. This is the first week out of the starting gate, so be sure to include God in everything you do. Seek His counsel through spending time each day in His Word and in prayer. Let Him know that you care and are grateful that He cares about all that’s going on in your life. Learn to just say, “Thank you Father!” and then expect blessings, unexplained in the natural, to come your way as He responds to your willingness to trust and obey Him.

Remember as you begin this new week, “If God is for you, then who can ever be against you?” (Romans 8:31)

A Prayer for Today

Heavenly Father, here we are ready to continue the journey You have called me to. I’m ready and willing to do whatever I must to accomplish Your will in my life this week. Use me, teach me, help me to grow and mature, and allow others to experience Your unfailing love through me. In Jesus’ Name I pray – Amen.

Begin the week out right

Never Take God for Granted

Today’s Scripture

“Let us not neglect our church meetings, as some people do, but encourage and warn each other, especially now that the day of his coming back again is drawing near.” Hebrews 10:25 -TLB

Today’s Word

So, what do you think God wants from you today? Maybe just a little time before you begin your busy week. Maybe He just wants you to get to know Him a little more than you do. Maybe God wants to reveal Himself to you in a way you never thought of before, in a way you’d probably think was impossible, but in reviewing His Word, it is written, “All things are possible” (Matthew 19:26 ). Visit your local Bible believing and Bible teaching church today and allow prayer, meditation and revelation of His Word to touch you as though your very life depended on it, because the fact is, it should.

Begin this week out right, by having God’s Word administered to you so that once you take your step into Monday, you’ll be ready to handle anything, knowing reassured that God is with you throughout your week.

A Prayer for Today

Heavenly Father, something in me longs to be nearer to You, but sometimes “religion” and “rituals” just get in the way. Help me to rise above all the hype and come to You on such a personal level that I am ministered to the way You want to reach me. In Jesus’ Name – Amen.

The Whisper

Keep an open heart

Today’s Scripture

"What I tell you now in the gloom, shout abroad when daybreak comes. What I whisper in your ears, proclaim from the housetops!” Matthew 10:27 – TLB

Today’s Word

It is in the whisper that you hear God the loudest. The gentleness of His grace rings forth unto the ears that are willing to listen. Do you have a desire to hear God? Ask Him, “Lord, speak to me, I am willing to listen to all of Your Words. Fill me with that which will nourish my soul and mature the spirit within me.” When you have the heartfelt desire to hear God, not for what you want, need or can achieve, but for who He is and for who He will reveal you are, then you can expect to hear the voice of God. When you spend time in His Word, it is there that will you hear “The Whisper”, it is on your knees seeking His fellowship that you will hear “The Whisper”, it is when you cry out for His direction and forgiveness that you will hear “The Whisper”, and it is in the moment of healing that you will hear “The Whisper” that say’s, “I am here”.

Shhhhhhh, do you hear “The Whisper” calling you today?

A Prayer for Today

Heavenly Father, I long to hear Your voice in all of its beauty, let it ring forth in my heart that I may forever be guided by Your instructions and leading. May I be healed by Your assurance, restored by Your Word and raised by Your call. Let Your voice be my guide throughout the day. I pray in the Name that is above all other names, Jesus’ – Amen.

Getting Started

Begin today believing with all of your heart

Today’s Scripture

The whole Bible was given to us by inspiration from God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives; it straightens us out and helps us do what is right. 17 It is God's way of making us well prepared at every point, fully equipped to do good to everyone. 2 Tim 3:16-17 - TLB

Today’s Word

The hardest part of moving forward with your life is taking the very first step, it’s like, “where do I begin?” The best place to begin is with the instructions, and those instructions are found only in the Word of God, our “Operations Manuel” for living. Only the Creator knows what His plans are for the created, and that’s you. As you familiarize yourself more and more each day with God’s intention and plan for your life, you will begin to discover things about you and God that otherwise you couldn't have possibly imagined. So, getting started in God’s Word is the first step.

Next, in order to keep moving in the right direction you must wake-up each new day leaving the past in the past and looking forward to a day of newness, discovery and opportunities. Look around you and see the possibilities for moving forward physically, psychologically and spiritually, then, begin to move in that direction. Maybe you need to lose a few pounds to become healthier or change your old thinking habits about others, yourself and God, or perhaps you’ve been feeling the need for something greater. These are all signs that God is working in you, He’s calling you to discover “Real” living as He intended you to. Getting started is easy when you take the first step, but it seems impossible when you just stay where you’re at.

Go ahead, take the challenge and begin reading Genesis 1:1 “In the Beginning” and get your new beginning today.

A Prayer for Today

Heavenly Father, I’m feeling something different in my life, something far different than ever before. I sense Your presence, Your breath of newness and Your gentle whisper that calls me from my past. Help me to understand Your Word and to yearn Your instructions. For I commit myself to Your lead today and every day. To You I commit my life. In Jesus’ Name I pray – Amen.

It's time to count your blessings

Today's Scripture

"This is the day the Lord has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it." Psalm 118:24

Today's Word

When is the last time you sat down, counted your blessings and thanked God for everything He has done for you? Today would be a great day to start, because wait until you see what He has for you tomorrow.

A Prayer for Today

Dear God, when I think of all You have done it's amazing. Without You, there simply wouldn't be life. Thank You for allowing me to be a part of it. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.

Dare To Live Your Dreams

Watta You Looking At?

Today's Scripture

'In the last days,' God said, 'I will pour out my Holy Spirit upon all mankind, and your sons and daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men dream dreams. Acts 2:17 TLB

Today's Word

Some years ago I took a motorcycle safety course. I learned that a rider should always look at their destination, never look down or you will follow your eyes and fall, look ahead and the bike will follow your eyes. I learned that when you look down, chances are, you will go down.

Words have incredible power, power enough to change the direction of your life. You may have been told you don't have what it takes, or you're to old, not smart enough, not rich enough, not good looking enough, to fat, or to skinny. These negative words of invalidation are intended to pull you down, and they usually come from people who haven't gone very far in their own life. If you listen to negativity enough, you'll begin looking down at yourself thinking, "I can't". But God's Word says', "You Can!" If you will lift your faith up, set you eyes on the dream God has placed within you, you will begin to head in that direction.

See yourself happy, in business, married, out of debt, healthy, better than before and blessing others. Speak it, dream it, shout it and live it. Keep walking towards your God given destiny and do not let anyone at all cause you to look down. When someone tells you, "You can't", then you tell yourself, "I must!" and so you shall.

A Prayer for Today

Dear God, Wow!!! I want to tap into Your economy, the economy that pours promise and hope into my life. Open my eyes to see all that You have placed inside of me, dreams, visions and more. Help me to read and listen to Your Word and ignore the words of the "small-minded". In Jesus name I pray. Amen.

Open Your Mind

Today's Scripture

"For just as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than yours, and my thoughts than yours." Isaiah 55:9 - TLB

Knock, Knock

Today's Word

When you open your mind you open yourself to possibilities of increase in your life. A closed mind is like shutting the door, you simply don't want anything else coming in.

Biblical increase pertains to your physical, psychological and spiritual life. You may need physical healing today or have unhealthy thoughts that need addressing or even find yourself in a spiritual battlefield, but when you open your mind to the possibilities of increase your life will begin to follow your thoughts. Go into the Concordance of your Bible, choose an area of your life where you find yourself challenged, like Worry, Depression, Marriage, Money, Sickness and begin to read the passages associated with each topic concerning your situation. Open your mind and allow God's Word to overshadow your challenge, disbelief and fear, and stand on that Word. Read it again and again, commit it to memory and slowly you will begin to see yourself walking out of your dilemma. As you begin to see yourself freed, little-by-little, you'll actually move in the direction of your thoughts, its called faith, believing in what you cannot see, but knowing it lies ahead.

When you open the door of your mind and become a "Possibility Thinker" you can expect a life filled with God's anointing of blessing and favor. So, change your thoughts from "gloom and doom" and become opened to "favor mindedness", it will make all the difference in your life right now.

A Prayer for Today

Dear God, lead me to Your Word, fill me with Your thoughts and revive my thinking with a fresh anointing. Keep my eyes fixed on Your promise and not on distractions that lie all around me. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.

Today's Scripture

"Give us our food again today, as usual, and forgive us our sins, just as we have forgiven those who have sinned against us." Matthew 6:11-12 TLB

Today's Word

Bless God today by forgiving someone who has wronged you. You'll be surprised how good it feels and how you'll begin to mature as you practice forgiveness more and more.

A Prayer for Today

Dear God, it's very difficult for me to forgive, especially those who continue to wrong me. Give me the strength to forgive and forget those who know not what they do. Bless them Oh Lord, that they may know You and love You and walk with You as I am now. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.

You've got a lot to look forward to

Today's Word

Do you know if you're an artist, you haven't created your best painting yet? If you're a builder, you haven't built your best house yet. If you're a musician you haven't played your greatest song yet and if you're a business person, you haven't closed your biggest deal yet. No matter who you are, what you have, or what you have accomplished you have yet to achieve all that God intended you to achieve when He created you. Think bigger, think better and think more because God wants to demonstrate His blessing for others through you. You've got what it takes, you just need to learn how to tap into God's economy and reap one blessing after another. Begin today, by asking God to reveal His plan for you. Focus on your purpose, trust God no matter what anyone else says and reach for your dreams and watch God anoint your plan to bring Him all the glory in your advancement. I'm excited for you as you begin to mature and reach your intended potential.

Do you know if you're a painter, God may have you one day painting rainbows in heaven? An accountant? You may be keeping score in the heavenlies. If you're an athlete you may be scoring goals from one end of heaven to the other and if your a haircutter, you just might give the Lord a trim. Your best days are still ahead of you.

Tap into your dreams and start living them, there's a blessing waiting to unfold in and through you.

A Prayer for Today

Dear God, help me to open up to You and allow Your Spirit to flow in and through me, that I may increase others through the gifts, talents and promises you created and designed me for. How blessed I am Lord that You created me, Your instrument, Your touch to the world. In Jesus name I pray. Amen

Ready Me

Today's Scripture

Stand ready to help me because I have chosen to follow your will. O Lord, I have longed for your salvation, and your law is my delight. Psalm 119:173-174

Are you sure you're ready?

Today's Word

Are you ready for God's increase in your life? Maybe you're believing God for a partner, a new career, help with your finances, owning a new business or healing you? Maybe there is an area of your life that has always been a challenge for you like, relationships, advancement, handling your finances, forgiving, studying, parenting, etc. Are you really ready now for the desires of your heart?

Most of us have spent years saying, "I'm finally ready" only to find ourselves right back in dilemma after dilemma, challenge after challenge.

If you want to be increased in any or every area of your life stop telling God you're ready, because on your own you will always fall short. Instead, why not ask God, "Ready Me Lord" and watch Him prepare, provide and prosper those areas of your life that have been anemic for so long. You see it's not about what you think you want or need. Leave the assigning to your Creator and watch how powerfully you'll begin to live your life. There is no limit to what God can and will do in you and though you. But first, you have to let Him do what He does, and then, you do what He has done in you.

A Prayer for Today

Dear God, Ready Me for the desires of my heart. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
