Do Your Part

Guide me in Your truth and teach me, for You are God my Savior, and my hope is in You all day long.—Psalm 25:5 (NIV)

When we ask God to change a difficult situation, we must be willing to give ourselves in any way that might help resolve it. If you’ve been asking God to intervene in a personal problem, don’t deny Him your own actions. He may want to use them.

Lord, I know You love me and are at work in my life for good. I am here to do my part.

Trapped to Triumphant

Yet as soon as the priests who carried the ark reached the Jordan and their feet touched the water’s edge, the water from upstream stopped flowing. It piled up in a heap a great distance away…—Joshua 3:15–16 (NIV)

Sometimes in life when you are faced with a challenging situation, like Joshua, you must obediently trust God and step into unknown waters. When you feel stuck by the obstacles that are holding you back, step forward knowing that with God’s help you can go from feeling trapped to triumphant.

Lord, my course is charted. Give me the wisdom and courage to trust You.

Pray God’s Word

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.—Psalm 23:1 (KJV)

The Twenty-Third Psalm is composed of 118 words and is easy to memorize… perhaps you already know it by heart. But its power is not in memorizing the words, but rather in taking in its positive and hopeful approach to life verse by verse. Pray God’s words back to Him, and experience His goodness. Be strengthened by His promises.
Lord, You are my Shepherd…

Sprouting in Faith

Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.—Psalm 27:14 (NIV)

Just as God’s presence is seen through nature, He is planting a new season in your life. Even if you feel as though you aren’t growing, be assured that He is watering the seeds that will bud into fruition. There is always a new season ahead, a season of new beginnings.
Faithful God, thank You for nurturing my Spirit so that I may bloom into the person You intend me to be.

Forgive, Forgive, Forgive

Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?” Jesus answered, “I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.”—Matthew 18:21–22 (NIV)

Jesus invites us to be like Him, to love the people in our lives in spite of their wrongdoings and their shortcomings. He asks us to follow His teaching in the above verse to forgive and forgive again, remembering that His forgiveness is limitless.

Lord, it’s not always easy to forgive. Heal my wounded heart and teach me to love unconditionally

Rich Beyond Measure

There is that maketh himself rich, yet hath nothing: There is that maketh himself poor, yet hath great riches.—Proverbs 13:7 (KJV)
Dr. Norman Vincent Peale famously said, “Empty pockets never held anyone back. Only empty heads and empty hearts can do that.” Some of us spend so much energy and worry over our bank accounts when the richest experience in life—a strong relationship with God—cannot be bought. And if you don’t have faith, all the money in the world will not fill the void.
Lord, my relationship with You, and all the blessings that flow because of my faith, make me rich beyond worldly measure.

God Will Catch You

But when he saw the strong wind and the waves, he was terrified and began to sink. “Save me, Lord!” he shouted.—Matthew 14:30 (NLT)

Do you ever have the feeling that you’re in over your head? Maybe an unexpected bill, or a phone call with bad news sends you into a tailspin. Like Peter in the above verse, when you are frightened or worried, it’s okay to cry out to the Lord and know that He will stretch out His hand and catch you.

Father, replace my fears with the belief in Your ability to see me through life’s challenges.

Detour to Your Dreams

We can make our plans, but the Lord determines our steps.—Proverbs 16:9 (NLT)
When life throws a roadblock in your path—whether it comes in the form of illness, or an accident or a job loss—look again. It may be only a jog in the road, a different route leading to real fulfillment. A detour can sometimes lead you to your dream.
Keep my faith from ebbing, Lord. When obstacles arise, help me to trust Your plan.

Live by Jesus’ Example

Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.”—Matthew 16:24 NIV

If you want to be a better person, follow Christ’s lead. Be kind and loving to friends and foes alike, forgive those who have hurt you, be of service to others—help the poor, volunteer at a charity—do good deeds humbly and quietly.

Dear Lord, I am ready to serve. Guide me to where I am needed.

The Key to Fulfillment

Whoever finds their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life for my sake will find it.—Matthew 10:39 (NIV)

God wants you to have a blessed and wonderful life. He calls each of us to do His work here on earth. The key to fulfillment is to give yourself totally to a cause and be focused and dedicated on worthwhile tasks.

Father, fulfill Your purposes for me and help me to give myself generously to others without reservation.

Shine for Jesus

In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.—Matthew 5:16 NIV

One of the purest forms of devotion is service—doing God’s work on earth. By bringing happiness, peace and security to others, we bring His heavenly traits to earth. When we serve others, we serve Christ.

Our Heavenly Father, help me to live so that not only do I have strength and joy myself, but that I may help others and build Your kingdom on earth.

Look to Yourself

“Judge not, that you be not judged. For with the judgment you pronounce, you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you.”—Matthew 7:1 ESV

Jesus speaks against judging someone while overlooking your own faults. Instead of criticizing another, explore your motivation. Are you being helpful or hurtful? The Bible tells us only God is able to judge someone’s heart.

Heavenly Father, help me to steer away from judgement. Help me to love with my whole heart.
