SUMMARY:Isaiah 40:31
DESCRIPTION:Isaiah 40:31 But they who wait for the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint. (KJV\n \nAre you weary? \nWhen you are intent on success\, training is\, and should be\, hard. If you are reward oriented\, you are not as much concerned with the task as long as you know what prize or accolade you will get when you finish. As a Christian\, you already know you will be with the Lord in glory. You also know\, in this life\, you will have victories\, and you have the promise of blessings you won’t have room to hold. What about until the blessings come? Until then\, you have to wait.  \nPsalm 27:13-14 [What\, what would have become of me] had I not believed that I would see the Lord’s goodness in the land of the living! 14 Wait and hope for and expect the Lord; be brave and of good courage and let your heart be stout and enduring. Yes\, wait for and hope for and expect the Lord. (AMPC) \nTime flies when you are having fun\, right! When you feel you are ready to receive what you have been training for\, and the blessing has not come yet; are you still having fun? What do you do? You must guard your heart\, and you won’t get tired and want to give up. Do what David did: \n1 Samuel 30:6b But David encouraged and strengthened himself in the Lord his God. (AMPC) \nPsalms 51:12 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit. (KJV) \nWhen you are feeling weary\, remember it is because you have lost sight of God and you are functioning on your own. During this time\, go into your secret place and praise Him for what He has done for you in the past; worship Him for Who He is\, honor Him for the opportunity to serve. As you spend time in His presence\, God will energize\, inspire\, and encourage you. Don’t stop praising\, don’t stop worshiping\, and most of all\, don’t stop serving!  \nPlease agree with me as I pray. Then ask the Lord what your prayer should be and wait for His response: \nFather\, I have not always been willing to wait. I am sorry for my impatience\, and I repent for my attitude. Now\, I give You praise because You strengthened me through my tears. Now I know You were preparing me. I didn’t know what I was going to encounter; I am so glad You did. You have taught me how to wait. Even now\, I don’t know what I am going to have to deal with next; again\, I am glad You do. As I wait\, I will continue to seek You\, worship\, pray\, and study. I know You are everywhere at the same time and You are already with me when the next appointed time comes. I am prepared because of You. The enemy cannot blindside me. He will not get the victory because You trained me\, matured me\, and equipped me in my time of waiting. Father\, I believe I can mount up on wings like an eagle. Thank You for empowering me to run and not get weary. I give You glory… \nAsk the lord what he wants to say to you about today’s devotional and journal it here:

SUMMARY:John 3:17
DESCRIPTION:1 John 3:17 But whoso hath this world’s good\, and seeth his brother have need\, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him\, how dwelleth the love of God in him? (KJV) \nDo you have a convenient excuse not to give? \nWhere does your obligation to others begin and end? Are you looking out for number one only? What do you think about when you see the guys on the side of the street with the signs and/or mothers with their children outside of the grocery store? Has the “20/20” or “Sixty Minutes” reports convinced you they are scammers and are all living in condos? Do you think the person will take your money and buy drugs? Sometimes it is hard to decide. You don’t know what to believe\, and you just don’t want to make a mistake. What do you do? Do you just keep it moving or do you listen for the Lord to direct you?  \n2 Corinthians 9:6-8 Now [remember] this: he who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly\, and he who sows generously [that blessings may come to others] will also reap generously [and be blessed]. 7 Let each one give [thoughtfully and with purpose] just as he has decided in his heart\, not grudgingly or under compulsion\, for God loves a cheerful giver [and delights in the one whose heart is in his gift]. (AMP) \n1 John 2:20 But you have an anointing from the Holy One [you have been set apart\, specially gifted and prepared by the Holy Spirit]\, and all of you know [the truth because He teaches us\, illuminates our minds\, and guards us from error]. (AMP) \nWhat is in your heart? Are you spending enough time with the Lord\, creating a connection and increasing your discernment in order for you to obey Him when He speaks to you? Are you allowing Him to guide you? If you ask Him\, He will tell you who you should give to and how much you should give. You won’t have to leave the moment wondering if you should have given more or at all. You will also realize there are some situations that require more than just money. You may have to sacrifice your time\, talent\, skills\, and /or you may have to get involved on a deeper level. What will you do? \nPlease agree with me as I pray. Then ask the Lord what your prayer should be and wait for His response: \nFather\, I thank You for the opportunity to serve through my giving. Whether I am serving a brother or sister in Christ or someone who has not yet come to know You. You give me the provision\, gifts to the giver and seed to the sower. I give\, not because You will give back to me. I give because You identified the need\, told me what was needed\, and then gave me the means to meet the need. Father\, I thank You for keeping Your hand on my heart. I repent for any time I did not want to give; I evaluated the need\, or I judged the one in need. I thank You for trusting me with the resources to give and showing me my heart. I will obey You when You call. I ask You to keep me in Your presence\, and I will know when to give and when to do more. You changed my heart. You filled it with love\, kindness and caring and I thank You for it… \nAsk the lord what he wants to say to you about today’s devotional and journal it here:

SUMMARY:Romans 11:22
DESCRIPTION:Romans 11:22 Both God’s goodness as well as His decisiveness are based on His integrity; unbelief is not tolerated\, not in them\, neither will it be tolerated in you. His favor is not to be taken for granted; instead\, continue to embrace and appreciate His goodness with gratitude. (TMB) \nHow long are you going to be in time out? \nHave you been in a store\, a restaurant\, or any other place and you heard a mother or father say\, “Johnny\, stop?” Then a few minutes later\, you hear “Johnny stop.” And that goes on for a couple of minutes and then you hear: “If you don’t stop\, you are really going to be in trouble.” Meanwhile\, Johnny is still doing his thing. At this point\, you and anyone who is in the vicinity and has been witnessing the situation and listening to the parent are probably thinking\, “Johnny does not believe he is going to be in trouble. He doesn’t think anything is going to happen to him”. Actually\, you are probably in agreement with Johnny. Finally\, you hear\, “Johnny\, you are in ‘time out’.” That means Johnny does not have the liberty to move from the side of his parent. He has no freedom to do anything.  \nCan you hear God saying stop? Are you like Johnny? Have you been living as though you don’t believe there are godly consequences for your actions? Here are some things to consider. Have you noticed you are not flowing in the Spirit the way you used to? Have you noticed you don’t sense The Lord’s presence as strongly or as often as you used to? God placed you in “time out.”  \n1 Samuel 4:21a And she named the boy Ichabod\, saying\, “The glory has left Israel\,” (AMP) \nFor more signs you are in time out\, read Deuteronomy 28:15-44 and Leviticus 26:14-39. If you do not correct your behavior\, the next step after time out is the danger of being cut off because you are not bearing fruit.  \nMatthew 21:18-19 Now early in the morning\, as Jesus was coming back to the city\, He was hungry. 19 Seeing a lone fig tree at the roadside\, He went to it and found nothing but leaves on it; and He said to it\, “Never again will fruit come from you.” And at once the fig tree withered. (AMP) \nBe grateful you don’t have to stay in time out. You can cry out to the Lord to repent and ask for His mercy.  \nPsalms 51:10-11 Create in me a clean heart\, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. 11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me. (KJV) \nPlease agree with me as I pray. Then ask the Lord what your prayer should be and wait for His response: \nFather\, thank You for pointing out to me I cannot do anything and everything I want to do. I repent for thinking it was okay. Thank You for the Holy Spirit\, Who makes me aware of the instructions You have given me and continually identifies what You require of me. I am sorry for deliberately disobeying You\, acting like it was an accident\, and relying on Your grace and mercy. Please forgive me. Thank You for creating consequences for my actions. You remind me of the consequences; I will reap what I have sown. If I continually disobey You\, without remorse\, I will be cutoff. I’m grateful for that reality. Thank You for chastising me. Not only does it demonstrate Your love for me\, it also means I still have a chance to get it right. Thank You for the opportunity to seek You for Your grace to choose You and Your will. I know when I choose You\, I will be excited about the results of my choices… \nAsk the lord what he wants to say to you about today’s devotional and journal it here:

SUMMARY:Acts 14:22
DESCRIPTION:Acts 14:22 Confirming the souls of the disciples\, and exhorting them to continue in the faith\, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God. (KJV) \nAre you willing to endure tribulation? \nIn the movie Bridge of Spies\, there is a combat briefing where the pilots are told their operations manager would give them a “scratch device.” They were to keep it on them at all times. It was to be used\, if they get caught\, in order to take their own lives. Not only would it keep them from giving up any secrets\, it would also keep them from having to suffer at the hands of the enemy. You don’t have a “scratch device”. And though it may sound like a good thing to have; you don’t want one. You must go through tribulation. \nHebrews 5:7-9  When Jesus was on the earth\, a man of flesh and blood\, He offered up prayers and pleas\, groans and tears to the One who could save Him from death. He was heard because He approached God with reverence. 8 Although He was a Son\, Jesus learned obedience through the things He suffered. 9 And once He was perfected through that suffering He became the way of eternal salvation for all those who hear and follow Him. (TVT) \nThere are things you will suffer\, and that is just the way it is. The suffering is purposeful\, though.  \nJames 1:2-4 Consider it wholly joyful\, my brethren\, whenever you are enveloped in or encounter trials of any sort or fall into various temptations.3 Be assured and understand that the trial and proving of your faith bring out endurance and steadfastness and patience.4 But let endurance and steadfastness and patience have full play and do a thorough work\, so that you may be [people] perfectly and fully developed [with no defects]\, lacking in nothing. (AMPC) \nYour tribulations work patience in you. When patience is through\, it can make you perfect. Don’t run away from your troubles; they will make you the person God intended you to be. \nPlease agree with me as I pray. Then ask the Lord what your prayer should be and wait for His response: \nFather\, I was not sure\, when I began this journey with You\, what to expect. I believed all I had to do was accept Your invitation for salvation and everything would be alright. I guess I thought I would look at life through rose-colored glasses from that point on. I thought I would not have any struggles. I thought if I had problems\, You would miraculously work each one out as it came. After all\, You are God. As my journey continued\, I found a scripture that says in this life I shall have tribulation. It also encourages me to be of good cheer. That was an eye opener. For the times I murmured and demanded a release\, I repent. Now I understand my tribulations make me strong. Sometimes I am successful and sometimes I am not. In either case\, I know You are always there. I can rejoice because You have chosen me. I don’t need to step off of the path I’m on. I just need to live my life and endure whatever I have to endure\, to glorify You. Thank You for growing me up in You. I can look at my life as wonderful\, no matter what circumstances I have to face…  \nAsk the lord what he wants to say to you about today’s devotional and journal it here:

SUMMARY:John 6:40
DESCRIPTION:John 6:40 And this is the will of him that sent me\, that everyone which seeth the Son\, and believeth on him\, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day. (KJV) \nAre living like you believe? \nAs a Christian\, your task never changes. Even though you may change jobs\, churches\, or locations in the world; you are to believe in the finished work of Jesus. That is what God requires for your salvation.  \nRomans 10:9-10 because if you acknowledge and confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord [recognizing His power\, authority\, and majesty as God]\, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead\, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart a person believes [in Christ as Savior] resulting in his justification [that is\, being made righteous—being freed of the guilt of sin and made acceptable to God]; and with the mouth he acknowledges and confesses [his faith openly]\, resulting in and confirming [his] salvation. (AMP) \nYou must believe when things are not going your way. You must believe when you don’t understand the direction you are being taken in. You must believe when things look the worst. You must believe when the enemy tries to make you walk in fear instead of faith. You must believe when you are uncertain. You must believe when you are emotional. You must believe when things are changing more rapidly than you can keep up with. You must believe when your old habits are trying to resurface. You must believe\, though everything in you is telling you not to believe.  \nRomans 8:35-39 Who shall ever separate us from the love of Christ? Will tribulation\, or distress\, or persecution\, or famine\, or nakedness\, or danger\, or sword? 36 Just as it is written and forever remains written\,“FOR YOUR SAKE WE ARE PUT TO DEATH ALL DAY LONG; WE ARE REGARDED AS SHEEP FOR THE SLAUGHTER.” 37 Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors and gain an overwhelming victory through Him who loved us [so much that He died for us]. 38 For I am convinced [and continue to be convinced—beyond any doubt] that neither death\, nor life\, nor angels\, nor principalities\, nor things present and threatening\, nor things to come\, nor powers\, 39 nor height\, nor depth\, nor any other created thing\, will be able to separate us from the [unlimited] love of God\, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. (AMP) \nYou must show you believe by standing\, despite what you see\, and praising the Lord with a humble and trusting heart.  \nPlease agree with me as I pray. Then ask the Lord what your prayer should be and wait for His response: \nFather\, thank You for this reminder. I repent for thinking there is a time when I can relax my stance. My job does not change. It doesn’t matter where I am or who I am interacting with. You have ordained and sanctified the place You called me to. I am not a chameleon\, and I don’t have to fit in everywhere I go. I simply have to live the life ordered and directed by You; showing\, through my actions\, I believe You in everything. I need to humble myself and trust You. I’ve often heard people say\, “I trust You even when I can’t trace You.” I understand the statement. Father\, I want to get to the place in You where I can trace You in every situation in my life. I want to be able to see Your hand moving. I am looking forward to it and I thank You in advance… \nAsk the lord what he wants to say to you about today’s devotional and journal it here:

SUMMARY:Psalms 73:26
DESCRIPTION:Psalms 73:26 My flesh and my heart may fail\, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. (KJV) \nWhose strength are you walking in? \nBecause your life and all you experience each day is training for you\, you may sometimes feel faint and almost unable to go on. What a refreshing thought to know that even if that happens\, God is your strength.  \nPhilippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. (KJV) \nNow there is indeed a difference between knowing this and walking in it. The enemy wants to put you in a place where you throw in the towel. Don’t allow him to do it.  \nThere is a scene in the movie “Facing the Giants”\, called the Death Crawl. In the scene\, Brock\, the captain of the football team\, had to carry a teammate on his back. He understood he would start in the 0-yard line and go to the 50-yard line. However\, Coach Taylor wanted Brock to go as far as he could. Taylor put a blindfold on Brock. He did not want Brock to know where he was on the field. Taylor knew looking at the field\, and at the distance\, would have made it harder for Brock to push himself. Brock crawled and crawled. His legs were shaky. His arms were shaky. All along the way\, Brock was being encouraged by the coach. Finally\, Brock got to a place where he said he could go no further. He was going to give up. The coach told him to open his eyes. Brock was in the end zone. He had gone the entire length of the field! The Footnotes page has a link to that scene. Whether or not you watch the link\, put these scriptures in your arsenal. \nPhilippians 4:13 I can do all things [which He has called me to do] through Him who strengthens and empowers me [to fulfill His purpose—I am self-sufficient in Christ’s sufficiency; I am ready for anything and equal to anything through Him who infuses me with inner strength and confident peace.] (AMP) \nPsalm 73:26 I admit how broken I am in body and spirit\, but God is my strength\, and He will be mine forever. (TVT) \n2 Corinthians 12:9 But he answered me\, “My grace is always more than enough for you\, and my power finds its full expression through your weakness.” So I will celebrate my weaknesses\, for when I’m weak I sense more deeply the mighty power of Christ living in me. (TPT) \nLook at your life through spiritual eyes and allow the Lord to be your strength.  \nPlease agree with me as I pray. Then ask the Lord what your prayer should be and wait for His response: \nFather\, God\, You are the strength of my life. I confess there are days when I feel weary. I am reminded of the words You have spoken to me so many times. “If I am weary\, I’m not walking in You; I’m not trusting You and I’m trying to do it without You”. Even though I acknowledge Your instruction and repent\, sometimes I find myself in a weary place again. Thank You for being right there with me. Thank You for encouraging me with every step\, telling me I can make it\, telling me have not gone as far as I can go\, and I need to stop feeling sorry for myself. Help me keep my focus on You and I will see through Your eyes. Continue to give me revelation and I will understand what is happening from a spiritual standpoint and stop looking at things in the natural. When I look with Your eyes and not with mine; when I allow You to be my strength and guide me\, I have many testimonies\, I overcome\, I am victorious\, and I am set for the next task You have ordained for me. Thank You for being my strength and my rock. Thank You for carrying me when I felt I could not go on. Thank You for staying with me when You saw me trying to walk in my strength instead of trusting in You. Thank You for being my Lord and my Father…  \nAsk the lord what he wants to say to you about today’s devotional and journal it here:

SUMMARY:Psalms 37:23
DESCRIPTION:Psalms 37:23   The steps of a man are established by the LORD\, when he delights in his way (KJV)\n \nDo you have your new walking shoes on? \nHave you seen a child when they get new shoes? He/she looks down at their feet and takes off. Happy to be walking\, excited about the new shoes. Not really looking where they are going. Not even considering the idea that they may fall. That is how the Lord wants you to walk with Him\, knowing He will be there. \nPsalm 119:133 Establish my footsteps in [the way of] Your word; Do not let any human weakness have power over me [causing me to be separated from You]. (AMP) \nYou know God has picked the right task\, the right path\, and the right time for you. The correct size and fit.  \nRomans 8:28-30 And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God\, to those who are the called according to His purpose. 29 For whom He foreknew\, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son\, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren. 30 Moreover whom He predestined\, these He also called; whom He called\, these He also justified; and whom He justified\, these He also glorified. (NKJV) \nYou only need to be happy to be used by Him. You’ve got your marching orders. Make disciples (Matthew 28:1-20). You got your head down and moving. Having faith\, though you might wobble\, and possibly fall\, you will not be stopped.  \nProverbs 24:16a For the lovers of God may suffer adversity and stumble seven times\, but they will continue to rise over and over again. (TPT) \nPlease agree with me as I pray. Then ask the Lord what your prayer should be and wait for His response: \nFather\, with each day\, I feel like the child with new shoes on. I don’t have to watch where I’m going because I know You order my footsteps. I know I can trust You. How wonderful! The excitement is welling up within me even if I as I think about it. You are such an awesome God! You set my path\, called and anointed me\, and I love it. I repent for thinking I should have a say in the places You want to take me. I am sorry if I act opposed because I may not want to go\, or I think I should go. Please forgive me. You have designed a way for me to give You glory with my life. I accept Your way. I know if I just keep my eyes on You and keep putting one foot in front of the other; I’ll end up in the place You have ordained for me to be. I bless Your Holy Name!…  \nAsk the lord what he wants to say to you about today’s devotional and journal it here:

SUMMARY:Proverbs 16:17
DESCRIPTION:Proverbs 16:17 The highway of the upright is to depart from evil: he that keepeth his way preserveth his soul. (KJV) \nWhat path are you on? \nThe Road Not Taken \nTwo roads diverged in a yellow wood\,\nAnd sorry I could not travel both\nAnd be one traveler\, long I stood\nAnd looked down one as far as I could\nTo where it bent in the undergrowth; \n  \nThen took the other\, as just as fair\,\nAnd having perhaps the better claim\,\nBecause it was grassy and wanted wear;\nThough as for that the passing there\nHad worn them really about the same\, \n  \nAnd both that morning equally lay\nIn leaves no step had trodden black.\nOh\, I kept the first for another day!\nYet knowing how way leads on to way\,\nI doubted if I should ever come back.  \n  \nI shall be telling this with a sigh\nSomewhere ages and ages hence:\nTwo roads diverged in a wood\, and I—\nI took the one less traveled by\,\nAnd that has made all the difference.  \nThe blood of Jesus made you right. It is not because of anything you did; He did it for you. Now you have to choose to walk in the righteousness Jesus died for. If you choose the righteous path\, you are also choosing to live a life that displays the holiness God commands.  \nMatthew 7:13-14 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate\, and broad is the way\, that leadeth to destruction\, and many there be which go in thereat: 14 Because strait is the gate\, and narrow is the way\, which leadeth unto life\, and few there be that find it. You will set your face like flint to seek the Lord\, not looking to the right or the left. You will think about the steps that you take and walk circumspectly. (KJV) \nPlease agree with me as I pray. Then ask the Lord what your prayer should be and wait for His response: \nFather\, I thank You for the opportunity to choose You every day. I realize I don’t have to choose You and I repent for those times that I didn’t. Jesus died for me. He made a way for me to be saved. I could not have saved myself. Help me to always remember that\, and I will choose You every time. The devil is strategic and cunning as he does his job. He tries to make the choice to choose You hard. I understand sometimes the road I choose will be lonely. I am comforted to know I am never without You. I will continue to examine my activities and my thoughts. If they do not line up with Your word\, I will allow You to change me. My goal is to live my life in such a way that You are pleased… \nAsk the lord what he wants to say to you about today’s devotional and journal it here:

SUMMARY:Psalms 13:5
DESCRIPTION:Psalms 13:5 But I have trusted in thy mercy; my heart shall rejoice in thy salvation. (KJV) \nWho are you trusting? \nIsn’t it a good thing that going to heaven has nothing to do with how you respond to situations in your life? You have thoughts about what you should do\, and you also have guidance from The One who knows all.  \nProverbs 3:5-7 Trust in the Lord completely\, and do not rely on your own opinions. With all your heart rely on him to guide you\, and he will lead you in every decision you make. 6 Become intimate with him in whatever you do\, and he will lead you wherever you go. 7 Don’t think for a moment that you know it all\, for wisdom comes when you adore him with undivided devotion and avoid everything that’s wrong. (TPT) \nYour faith\, hope\, and attitude towards God has to grow from whining and complaining to gratitude and thankfulness. You cast your cares on the Lord\, knowing and believing He is working things out for “the” good. How can you speak of the power of God one day and cry about what is going on in your life the next? When your words and your actions don’t match\, you are showing your lack of trust in Him. It also makes it hard for you to witness effectively.  \nPhilippians 2:14 Do everything without murmuring or questioning [the providence of God]\, 15 so that you may prove yourselves to be blameless and guileless\, innocent and uncontaminated\, children of God without blemish in the midst of a [morally] crooked and [spiritually] perverted generation\, among whom you are seen as bright lights [beacons shining out clearly] in the world [of darkness]\, 16 holding out and offering to everyone the word of life\, so that in the day of Christ I will have reason to rejoice greatly because I did not run [my race] in vain nor labor without result. (AMP) \nStop trusting in yourself and what you know about your situation; and what you think about your faithfulness\, righteousness\, and merits. Put all of your trust in the Lord\, who has a plan for your life. He is the gave you life and purchased your salvation. You have a countless list of reasons to rejoice and trust.  \nNumbers 23:19 “God is not a man\, that He should lie\, Nor a son of man\, that He should repent. Has He said\, and will He not do? Or has He spoken\, and will He not make it good”? (NKJV) \nPlease agree with me as I pray. Then ask the Lord what your prayer should be and wait for His response: \nFather\, I thank You for my salvation. I would not have a chance if I had to work in order to be with You in heaven. When I stop to think about my life\, I know I am sustained by Your grace\, Your mercy\, and the fact that You love me enough to look beyond my faults and see my needs. I should stay in a continual state of celebration. I repent for the times instead of celebrating; I was complaining. I know it meant I did not trust You to work everything out. For those times\, I am sorry. I need to spend more time on my knees. I have access to You and entrance into Your kingdom because Jesus died for me\, even when I wasn’t thinking about Him. If I had 10\,000 tongues\, I couldn’t thank You enough. I want to live my life in constant gratitude for what You’ve done for me… \nAsk the lord what he wants to say to you about today’s devotional and journal it here:

SUMMARY:Joshua 23:11
DESCRIPTION:Joshua 23:11 Take good heed therefore unto yourselves\, that ye love the Lord your God. (KJV) \nAre you being mindful of your choices? \nBeing a part of a group can be fun. If you’re not careful\, the group could influence your activity more than your stance as a Christian does.  \n1 Corinthians 15:33 33 So stop fooling yourselves! Evil companions will corrupt good morals and character. (TPT) \nProverbs 13:20 If you want to grow in wisdom\, spend time with the wise. Walk with the wicked and you’ll eventually become just like them. (TPT) \nIn your workplace\, social group\, club\, etc. do you choose to conform to the culture of the environment you are in? Do you go with the flow and blend in with everyone because of your job? Are there times when you do things because it is what everyone else is doing\, even though it is not a requirement or policy of the company you work for or club you are a member of? Do you make compromising decisions because you want to be in the running for the next promotion\, get picked by the popular people\, be the boss’s favorite\, etc.  \nGalatians 5:13a Brothers and sisters\, God has called you to freedom! Hear the call\, and do not spoil this gift by using your liberty to engage in what your flesh desires; (TVT) \nWeakening and/or reducing your principles and standards for personal reasons will damage to you spiritually. There is a checklist for what is OK and what is not. It’s called the Bible. Along with reading and studying the word\, go to God for clarity in application as you make your choices every day.  \n1 Corinthians 10:23 All things are legitimate [permissible—and we are free to do anything we please]\, but not all things are helpful (expedient\, profitable\, and wholesome). All things are legitimate\, but not all things are constructive [to character] and edifying [to spiritual life]. (AMPC) \nWalk in the liberty Christ made for you. Don’t fall prey to the traps the enemy will set for you. \nPlease agree with me as I pray. Then ask the Lord what your prayer should be and wait for His response: \nFather\, I thank You for providing a way for me to interact with different people\, at all times\, in my life\, everywhere I go. The people I meet are not just members of a church. I interact at the grocery store\, at the movie theater\, at social and networking venues\, and at my job. I want every decision I make and every choice and offer I take to be godly. I know that is not always the case. Sometimes I make decisions because I am thinking strategically for my self-preservation or my stance in whatever environment I am in. I repent for doing that. I want to rest in You for all I am and in everything I will ever accomplish. I don’t want to compromise my standard with You to meet some standard with people who have absolutely no control over my life or my destiny. Thank You for the revelation\, for the instruction and the rebuke… \nAsk the lord what he wants to say to you about today’s devotional and journal it here:

SUMMARY:Romans 6:23
DESCRIPTION:Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (KJV) \nAre you working or are you receiving? \nWhat is the difference between wages and gifts? What is the definition of gift? \n\nSomething given voluntarily without payment in return\, as to show favor toward someone\, honor an occasion\, or make a gesture of assistance.\nA direct or indirect transfer in which the giver doesn’t expect an equal amount of consideration in return. \n\nFor clarity\, if someone gives you money or any other asset\, and they are not asking for goods or services in exchange; it’s a gift.  \nA wage\, on the other hand\, is:  \n\nA fixed regular payment\, typically paid on a daily or weekly basis\, made by an employer to an employee\, especially to a manual or unskilled worker. The payment is usually on an hourly\, daily\, weekly\, or monthly basis.\nAll remuneration for services performed by an employee for his employer.\n\nWhen you sin\, you are an employee of the enemy. He gives you a wage\, it’s death.  \nGalatians 6:7-8 Do not be deceived and deluded and misled; God will not allow Himself to be sneered at (scorned\, disdained\, or mocked by mere pretensions or professions\, or by His precepts being set aside.) [He inevitably deludes himself who attempts to delude God.] For whatever a man sows\, that and that only is what he will reap. 8 For he who sows to his own flesh (lower nature\, sensuality) will from the flesh reap decay and ruin and destruction\, but he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.\n(AMPC) \nThat’s just the truth of the matter. Every time you sin\, you punch your timecard. Isn’t it a wonderful thing Jesus gave you the gift of salvation?  \nRomans 3:23-24 since all have sinned and continually fall short of the glory of God\, 24 and are being justified [declared free of the guilt of sin\, made acceptable to God\, and granted eternal life] as a gift by His [precious\, undeserved] grace\, through the redemption [the payment for our sin] which is [provided] in Christ Jesus\, (AMP) \nYou could not work for it even if you wanted to. You know it is a gift because He was not looking for you to give anything back. Actually\, He knew you were not even considering giving anything back at the time He gave it. Though He wants you to pay it forward\, that was not even a prerequisite to His giving. He died to give you the gift of life and it more abundantly.  \nRomans 12:1-2 I beseech you therefore\, brethren\, by the mercies of God\, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice\, holy\, acceptable to God\, which is your reasonable service. 2 And do not be conformed to this world\, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind\, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. (New King James Version) \nHis desire is for you to accept His gift and live like you’re grateful for it.  \nPlease agree with me as I pray. Then ask the Lord what your prayer should be and wait for His response: \nFather\, because of Jesus\, I have turned in my letter of resignation to the enemy. I will no longer work for him and I thank You. I repent for all the times I took part-time work for the devil when I should have been working full time for You. I have received what Jesus did for me. I did not have to work for it and what I do now is not drudgery and is not labor. I can not earn what I You have already given me. All I had to do was open my heart\, allow Jesus to come in and acknowledge Him as my Lord and savior. I am excited because there were no other requirements. I am humbled and filled with gratitude just thinking about that. The world tells You nothing in life is free. Jesus said. I give myself freely\, come and receive. Now I will live a life that speaks of the free gift that not only was available for me\, is available for all…  \nAsk the lord what he wants to say to you about today’s devotional and journal it here:

SUMMARY:John 1:17
DESCRIPTION:John 1:17 For the law was given by Moses\, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. (KJV) \nAre you being condemned by religion? \nThere is a quote by Michael Douglas in the movie\, The American President\, where he talks about the person who is running against him.  \n“And whatever your particular problem is\, I promise you\, Bob Rumson is not the least bit interested in solving it. He is interested in two things and two things only\, making you afraid of it and telling you who is to blame for it”.  \nPeople bound by religion are not interested in helping you. They also have two things they do:  \n\nIdentify what is wrong with you (judgement) \nTreat you as if there is no hope for you (condemnation). \n\nIf judgement and condemnation are not enough\, they also don’t tell you or show you the way to a better life. They hold on to your deliverance as if it’s a reward you have to earn. They make salvation some closed group or secret society you have to pledge to get in to. They make sure you feel you are doomed. Thank God\, He does not work that way.  \nEphesians 2:8 For by grace you have been saved by faith. Nothing you did could ever earn this salvation\, for it was the love gift from God that brought us to Christ! 9 So no one will ever be able to boast\, for salvation is never a reward for good works or human striving. (TPT) \nAlso\, He won’t leave you broken\, ashamed\, and feeling as if all is lost.  \nRomans 8:1-2 Therefore there is now no condemnation [no guilty verdict\, no punishment] for those who are in Christ Jesus [who believe in Him as personal Lord and Savior]. 2 For the law of the Spirit of life [which is] in Christ Jesus [the law of our new being] has set you free from the law of sin and of death. (AMP) \nYour Lord and Father positioned you\, through salvation\, to accept the transforming work of the cross and become the image He designed. \nEphesians 2:10 For we are His workmanship [His own master work\, a work of art]\, created in Christ Jesus [reborn from above—spiritually transformed\, renewed\, ready to be used] for good works\, which God prepared [for us] beforehand [taking paths which He set]\, so that we would walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us]. (AMP) \nYou want to always remember salvation shines a light on your need for the Father\, and allows Him to create a new you with His love and compassion. God will tell you what you need to do to move to a closer place in Him. That’s a glorious thing for you and for every believer. \nPlease agree with me as I pray. Then ask the Lord what your prayer should be and wait for His response: \nFather\, I thank You for the access I have to You. Because of Your grace\, I am no longer held in bondage by the law. I am covered by the blood of Jesus. I thank You! I am no longer interested in listing the wrongs I have done and what they mean. I will not allow others to list my wrongs without helping me do what is right. I repent for walking in condemnation. It is my responsibility to stand\, not someone else to make me stand. I thank You for moving me from the place of sin-consciousness to a place where I am heavenly minded in my choices. I will not continue to waste my time thinking about and talking about what the devil has done. I will concentrate on what Jesus did and what that means for my life. I want to access the power available to me as a believer to be transformed into Your image. I thank You for the blood of Christ…  \nAsk the lord what he wants to say to you about today’s devotional and journal it here:

SUMMARY:Corinthians 14:5
DESCRIPTION:1 Corinthians 14:5 I am happy for all of you to speak in tongues\, but I desire even more that each one of you will also speak revelation knowledge for the benefit of the whole church. So please do not speak in tongues in the church unless you can also interpret what you have just said. (TMB) \nWhich is your choice: to be edified or to edify others?  \nThere are those who place a great deal of spiritual weight on speaking in tongues. I recommend you seek the Lord for yourself on this matter. Paul teaches it would be better to prophesy.  \n1 Corinthians 14:12-14 So it is with you\, since you are so very eager to have spiritual gifts and manifestations of the Spirit\, strive to excel in ways that will build up the church [spiritually]. 13 Therefore let one who speaks in a tongue pray that he may [be gifted to] translate or explain [what he says]. 14 For if I pray in a tongue\, my spirit prays\, but my mind is unproductive [because it does not understand what my spirit is praying]. (AMP) \nWhen a person gives a prophecy\, they “speak forth” or declare the divine will of God. The purpose is to make known the desires God has for the person\, the place\, or the situation in any way they can. As they speak the heart of God\, the sole purpose is obedience. God sends the prophet to bring people clarity\, where they understand what God wants them to do and they do it. I will use the plight of Nineveh and the prophet Jonah to explain. \n    *  Prophecy shows God’s justice – Because we understand God is a just God\, we should repent. It is why God sent Jonah to Nineveh.  \nNahum 1:9 – Futile are the plots you devise against the Eternal One\, Nineveh\, because He will put a stop to them. Evil will not have a second chance to rise up. (TVT) \n    *  Prophecy shows God’s power – Because we understand God is almighty\, we know He always wins. This should create awe and also be encouraging.  \nJonah 3:4  Jonah started through the city\, and after walking a whole day\, he proclaimed\, “In forty days Nineveh will be destroyed!” (Good News Translation) \n    *  Prophecy shows God’s love – Because God loves us\, He gives us warning. If we obey\, we avoid destruction.  \nJonah 3:10 When God saw their deeds\, that they turned from their wicked way\, then God [had compassion and] relented concerning the disaster which He had declared that He would bring upon them. And He did not do it. (AMP) \nWhat an honor it would be to be used by God in this manner! It is wonderful to spend time in the presence of God\, being washed over by His Spirit\, speaking in tongues\, and having your spirit man edified. You feel strong and close to the Father\, and that is a good thing. What about your service to others? The enemy will try to stop you from submitting yourself to be used by God. Don’t allow him to. You have to decide what is more important to you. \nPlease agree with me as I pray. Then ask the Lord what your prayer should be and wait for His response: \nFather\, I don’t need a title or a position to be used by You to speak into someone’s life\, and I am grateful. I only need to be willing and available. I will continue to sit at Your feet\, studying and learning more about You. Being in Your presence to be edified by You is the greatest joy I have ever experienced. It is all I want. I repent for those days when I need to give\, and I just wanted to get. I want You to trust me with the lives of Your beloved. I know Your desire is for all to come to the knowledge of the truth. I also know You will send a word of prophecy to reveal the truth. I want to be used by You for the edification of the body and for Your glory…  \nAsk the lord what he wants to say to you about today’s devotional and journal it here:

SUMMARY:Psalms 3:6
DESCRIPTION:Psalms 3:6 I will not be afraid of many thousands of people who have set themselves against me all around. (KJV)\n\nAre you giving up on your revelation? \nHave you ever taken a position where you had to stand by yourself or opposite of what most people were choosing? Have they picked you last\, or not at all\, because everyone knew your position?  \nJeremiah 1:8-9 “Do not be afraid of them [or their hostile faces]\, For I am with you [always] to protect you and deliver you\,” says the Lord. 9 Then the Lord stretched out His hand and touched my mouth\, and the Lord said to me\, “Behold (hear Me)\, I have put My words in your mouth”. (Amplified Bible) \nWhen you have a revelation from God\, it doesn’t matter if no one else understands it or believes it. If you stay in His presence\, God will continue to speak to you and give you clarity. He will help you fine tune your understanding of what He is saying.  \n1 John 2:27 You have an anointing. You received it from Him\, and His anointing remains on you. You do not need any other teacher. But as His anointing instructs you in all the essentials (all the truth uncontaminated by darkness and lies)\, it teaches you this: “Remain connected to Him.” (The Voice) \nYou don’t have to be afraid. You don’t have to say\, I will not stand by this because it’s probably not God. You don’t have to be validated by what everyone else around you is saying. You don’t have to be validated by what the heroes in the faith are saying. You don’t have to be validated by friends and loved ones. It does not matter if you cannot find anyone who will agree with your position. As an encouraging tip\, don’t look for someone who will agree with you. It might prove very discouraging.  \nGalatians 1:10 I’m obviously not trying to flatter you or water down my message to be popular with men\, but my supreme passion is to please God. For if all I attempt to do is please people\, I would fail to be a true servant of Christ. (TPT) \n1 Thessalonians 2:4 but we have been approved by God to be those who preach the gospel. So our motivation to preach is not pleasing people but pleasing God\, who thoroughly examines our hearts. (TPT) \nIf you believe you have truly heard from God\, don’t let go of it; don’t be afraid of it. Just allow God to continue to speak to you and guide you. Even if you find you must adjust a bit. You may even find that you missed Him. That is Ok too. If you are not willing to miss Him\, you won’t fine tune your ear. All of this is testing\, training\, and maturing you. God loves you and wants to see you develop into the person He called you to be. He will let you know how everything fits. Be free and stay in His presence.  \nPlease agree with me as I pray. Then ask the Lord what your prayer should be and wait for His response: \nFather\, as I come into Your presence\, as I am still before You\, as I listen\, You speak. Sometimes I get an understanding that is not common. In those times\, I repent for giving up on my revelation. You have taught me I must trust what I believe I heard You say. I must speak what You say\, when You tell me to speak and not sooner. Even if I feel as if I am standing against an army. Is this what the disciples\, Martin Luther\, the priest\, and other non-traditional believers felt when they decided they would move from what was acceptable to a new way of doing things? Father\, they excommunicated Martin Luther; the entire church was against him. He fought for what he believed was a revelation from You. Because he did\, I have the freedom to pray to You directly\, right now. I may not have a world changing revelation from You\, however I want to have the fortitude and faith to stand on whatever You speak to me. Jesus died for me to have access to You. Father\, help me use the strength You have given me to stand on every word You have spoken and will speak to me\, whether it be popular or unpopular. Help me understand\, because I am Your sheep; I hear Your voice and I can believe what You say to me. I know sometimes I process what I hear through my emotions. I am open for You and You alone to make adjustments and to clear up whatever mess I make with my understanding. I want to accept Your pure word and I want to maintain its purity. I feel myself growing stronger as I pray this prayer and I thank You…  \nAsk the lord what he wants to say to you about today’s devotional and journal it here:

SUMMARY:Deuteronomy 31:6
DESCRIPTION:Deuteronomy 31:6 “Be strong and courageous. Do not fear or be in dread of them\, for it is the LORD your God who goes with you. He will not leave you or forsake you.” (KJV)\n\nDo you feel as if you’re fighting alone? \nThough you may feel like it\, you are not alone. Actually\, if you are faithful to prayer and study\, you are growing stronger in the Lord every day. As you progress\, the information is weightier\, and the tests get harder. It’s like going through school. You’ve heard it quoted\, “New levels\, new devils.” In spiritual warfare\, it is true. However\, it really doesn’t matter whether the devils are new or whether the devils are old. You know they exist and the devil has specifically and strategically assigned them to your life. Remember\, you are not alone.  \nIsaiah 43:2 When you face stormy seas I will be there with you with endurance and calm; you will not be engulfed in raging rivers. If it seems like you’re walking through fire with flames licking at your limbs\, keep going; you won’t be burned. (TVT) \nYou don’t have to be afraid because of your desire to grow in your understanding of how the enemy works. You don’t have to say\, “I will not pray those kinds of prayers”. You don’t have to shy away from studying what the Bible says about the enemy because you don’t want the devil to attack you. He’s going to attack you\, anyway.  \n1 Peter 5:8 Most importantly\, be disciplined and stay on guard. Your enemy the devil is prowling around outside like a roaring lion\, just waiting and hoping for the chance to devour someone. (TVT) \nSince you know you are under attack\, you might as well prepare for the battle and arm yourself; put on the full armor of God! The greatest thing you have going for you is knowing this is not your battle\, it is the Lord’s. You are not fighting by yourself; He is fighting with you. The Lord God has promised to never leave you nor forsake you. When the enemy tries to make you feel like God has left you; He has not. He is right there (Hebrews 13:5\, Deuteronomy 31:6). Always remember\, just like the devil is seeking you\, the Lord is seeking you as well. \n2 Chronicles 16:9a For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth\, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to Him. (KJV) \nContinue to grow in God and allow Him to elevate you. Stand on the word of the Lord and feel His strength because you are never alone. \nPlease agree with me as I pray. Then ask the Lord what your prayer should be and wait for His response: \nFather\, I thank You for Your still small voice. You let me know even though I feel like I’m all by myself; I am not. I repent for praying prayers and speaking words over my life that don’t reflect You are right here with me. I thank You for allowing me to see what the enemy is doing. I know it is the devil because Your word tells me I don’t fight against flesh and blood. People are not my issue. I thank You\, Father\, for an intensified revelation of who the devil is and a greater understanding of how he works. I especially thank You for reassuring me of Your constant presence and protection. I am not necessarily a bigger target; I am a target. You created me to worship You. The devil’s job is to wreak havoc on the earth and to pull me to hell with him. Whether he uses an arrow or whether he uses a bazooka\, You are Jehovah Nissi. You are with me and You are my banner. I know the Holy Spirit will stand up inside me. I know You cover me. I’m excited about what You are teaching me and the understanding I have gained about this warfare. I’m excited about what You are doing in my life. I’m excited about what You are teaching me and the training I am getting. I am inspired by what You are showing me about me and what You are showing me about You… \nAsk the lord what he wants to say to you about today’s devotional and journal it here:

SUMMARY:Jude 24
DESCRIPTION:Jude 24 Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling\, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy\, (KJV) \nAre you using your liberty as an excuse to sin? \nTake a moment and rejoice. The Lord can keep you from falling. The Lord can present you without fault; and He is excited to do it. When you think about the fact that He can keep you from falling\, do you wish He would keep you from sinning as well? The thing is\, whether or not you sin\, is your choice. You have to decide whether you will please God with your choice\, before you make it.  \nJoshua 24:15a If you decide that you’re not willing to serve Him\, then today is the day for you to choose whom you will serve\, (TVT) \nEven though you have accepted salvation\, you can choose to do something that is not pleasing to the Lord. Do you make that choice because you believe He is going to keep you from falling into the pits of hell? Do you rest on the promise that in the end\, He is going to present you faultless? Salvation means all the sins you have committed or ever will commit are washed in the blood; it also means God is does not look at your sin or anyone else’s because He only sees the blood of Jesus. Does that give you the freedom to do whatever you want to do? Is that really the Christian life you want to live? Should you evaluate your heart and make sure Jesus is truly lord over your life?   \nRomans 6:1-2 So what do we do\, then? Do we persist in sin so that God’s kindness and grace will increase? 2 What a terrible thought! We have died to sin once and for all\, as a dead man passes away from this life. So how could we live under sin’s rule a moment longer? (TPT) \nBecause grace abounds\, do you sin because you know Jesus covered you under His blood? Absolutely not. Take the responsibility for your choices and your actions\, value what Jesus did for you\, and choose to live a life that glorifies God. \nDeuteronomy 30:19-20 I am now giving you the choice between life and death\, between God’s blessing and God’s curse\, and I call heaven and earth to witness the choice you make. Choose life. (GNT) \nPlease agree with me as I pray. Then ask the Lord what your prayer should be and wait for His response: \nFather\, I thank You for sending Jesus. I thank You for washing me in His blood. I know when You look at me; You don’t see the sin I committed; You see the blood that was shed for me. I thank You Father\, because of Jesus\, I won’t end up in the pit of hell. I thank You because You will present me faultless\, no matter what I’ve done. The blood of Jesus covers me. I repent\, for every time I used my freedom\, bought by Jesus’ Blood\, to live an unholy and ungodly life. I purpose to use my forgiveness as the foundation for a life that honors and glorifies You. I owe You my life for what Jesus did\, and I choose You every day. I am thankful for His death. I appreciate being washed. I live with absolute and continual gratitude and I give You praise…  \nAsk the lord what he wants to say to you about today’s devotional and journal it here:

SUMMARY:Matthew 24:42
DESCRIPTION:Matthew 24:42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. (KJV) \nAre you watching? \nAs things happen\, you hear people saying\, “this is a sign of the times”. A statement made by people from hundreds of years ago until today is “Jesus is soon to return.” People will continue to make that statement a hundred years from now\, if the Lord has not yet returned. The thing is\, you are to watch. You can read the signs of the times as you watch what is going on in the world. You can also find some of them listed in Mark 13:3-13. These signs will still not give you the exact day when Jesus will return\, they will give you understanding about what is going on. The Bible gives you information to help you discern between natural realm and the spiritual realm; it will also teach you what to do in response to what you see. In Christ\, watching is not a passive activity; it is active. You are to watch\, and you are to pray\, study and seek the Lord as well. Then\, through your conversations with the Lord\, you will continue to be where God wants you to be and continue to do what God wants you to do.  \nLuke 12:35-38 “Be prepared for action at a moment’s notice. 36 Be like servants anticipating their master’s return from a wedding celebration. They are ready at a moment’s notice to unlock and open the door for him. 37 What great joy is ahead for those who stay awake and wait for their Master’s return! He himself will become their servant and wait on them. 38 He may appear at midnight or even later\, but what great joy for the awakened ones whenever he comes”! (TPT) \nYou want to be alert and prepared\, in the spirit and in the natural\, because you don’t know when Jesus is returning. You maintain the correct posture by watching. \nPlease agree with me as I pray. Then ask the Lord what your prayer should be and wait for His response: \nFather\, I thank You for calling me to watch. I repent for not being as diligent as I needed to be. I thank You for a new revelation about watching. Watching not only helps me to be aware of the enemy’s devices\, it is also a sign of my maturity. Watching helps me see what’s going on in the world\, and in my life. Watching allows me to align myself with what I see and be strategic\, just like the enemy is. Watching puts me in a place where the enemy can’t catch me unaware because I am sensitive to Your prompting. You are teaching me and giving me revelation. You are guiding me and the unction You provide allows me to understand what I see in the natural and what is going on in the spirit realm. It allows me to adjust accordingly. Thank You… \nAsk the lord what he wants to say to you about today’s devotional and journal it here:

SUMMARY:Matthew 24:46
DESCRIPTION:Matthew 24:46 Blessed is that servant\, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing. (KJV) \nAre you working as if Jesus is coming today? \nHave you ever had the responsibility of doing something and you thought you had a lot of time? Did you get right on it or did you lose track of time? Were you ready when the assignment was due\, or were you scrambling? Do you tell yourself and others you work better under pressure? Wouldn’t it be a blessing if you are not scrambling when Jesus returns? Are there choices you make because you think you’ll have time to get it right; you know God will forgive you; you can make a better choice the next time\, etc. The truth is\, you don’t know when Jesus is returning. \nMatthew 24:36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man\, no\, not the angels of heaven\, but my Father only. (KJV) \nIf you give it some thought\, is that how you want to handle the assignment God has given you? Isn’t what you really want is\, whenever He returns\, He finds you being the servant He called you to be; doing the work He created you to do. You don’t want to be found waiting for another opportunity\, or busy doing something that doesn’t give God glory. \nJohn 9:4 I must work the works of Him who sent Me while it is day; the night is coming when no one can work. (NKJV) \nGod does not run on our system of day and night\, nor of time on a 24-hour or work hours clock. As long as Jesus has not returned\, it is day and you should be at work.    \nPlease agree with me as I pray. Then ask the Lord what your prayer should be and wait for His response: \nFather\, I thank You for calling me to a place where I understand my need to be diligent in the work You have assigned to me. Because of Your grace and mercy\, I got another chance and I no longer live as if I control time. Your word says I do not know what will happen tomorrow. Which means I will not put off for tomorrow what You have purposed for me to do today. Thank You for holding me accountable and not letting me get away with the excuses I have made in the past. I ask You to forgive me again\, even as I think about the explanations I made to myself and others. Father\, I want to do the work You assigned to me on Your agenda. I am Your servant and I want to be found faithful. I thank You for the call to serve You and the ability You gave me to work efficiently and effectively. Father\, please continue to get my attention when I am busy doing other things; keep me from being distracted by what I want; and help me stay on task until Jesus’ return. Thank You for training me… \nAsk the lord what he wants to say to you about today’s devotional and journal it here:

SUMMARY:John 15:10
DESCRIPTION:John 15:10 If ye keep my commandments\, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments\, and abide in his love. (KJV) \nAre you abiding? \nTo be successful in this training\, using the gifts God has given you for His glory\, you must remain stable and fixed in a relationship of love that endures with God all your days; you must abide. Abiding gives you victory over the attacks of the enemy. When you think about abiding; what definition comes to mind? If one does not readily come to you\, here are a few:  \n\nTo act or accept under a rule or decision. \nTo comply with\, to obey\, to stick to\, to standby. \n\nThere is another definition that clearly identifies what God requires “to endure without yielding”.  \nHebrews 10:36 For you have need of patient endurance [to bear up under difficult circumstances without compromising]\, so that when you have carried out the will of God\, you may receive and enjoy to the full what is promised. (AMP) \nGod’s instruction to you for your success in Him is to abide. No matter what you are going through\, no matter how you feel\, you abide in Him\, without yielding. You should not deviate from the assigned path\, not looking to the left or to the right. You are to keep His commandments even when it’s not comfortable\, even when you would rather do what you want to do.  \nProverbs 4:26-27 Take care you don’t stray from the straight path\, the way of truth\, and you will safely reach the end of your road. 27 Do not veer off course to the right or the left; step away from evil\, and leave it behind. (TVT) \nBy enduring\, without yielding and keeping His commandments\, you abide in His love. \nPlease agree with me as I pray. Then ask the Lord what your prayer should be and wait for His response: \nFather\, I thank You for the opportunity to evaluate whether or not I am abiding in Your love. You have shown me I must be faithful to Your will and commands if I am to use the gifts You gave me effectively. If I don’t\, I cannot be victorious against the enemy. I know sometimes my flesh wants to win\, and I want to do what I want to do. I even try to give myself excuses for what I do. Please forgive me. Father\, knowing I must endure without yielding\, has brought me to my knees. It rings in my heart. It ignites in my spirit. It lets me know there is nothing else I can do. I will cling to You. I must allow Your love to strengthen me and keep me on the straight path. Father\, continue to guide my feet. I thank You for doing it…  \nAsk the lord what he wants to say to you about today’s devotional and journal it here:
