Sunday... What do you need today?


Sunday... What do you need today? Just ask Him. He will hear you and answer you.

David in Psalm 28:6 (NLT) says, "Praise the Lord! For he has heard my cry for mercy." Is that what you need today?

Maybe you blew it with your family. You showed no concern for their feelings. You showed the selfish side of you. Or maybe you let your guard down and did something you wish you hadn't done. And you are ashamed to come before God. There are so many things that we can do that we need to ask for mercy. So just ask Him 

Maybe you are feeling very weak. David goes on in verse 7 (AMP), "The Lord is my strength and my [impenetrable shield.] My heart trusts [with unwavering confidence] in Him, and I am helped."  Just reach out to Him. Remember those times when you were facing temptations and you felt weak and He came along side you and gave you strength to say no. He will do it again. The NIRV says, "The Lord gives me strength. He is like a shield that keeps me safe. My heart trusts in Him, and he helps me."

Oh God, we need You today. We need Your mercy when we have blown it, we need Your strength and we need You to keep us safe."

And the last part of 7 (NLT) says, "He helps me and my heart is filled with joy. I burst out in songs of thanksgiving." Just thank Him. Just thank Him. "He helps me and my heart is filled with joy." Yes, yes! #todaysbeginning

Friday... We have this hope of expectancy.

Psalm 5:3 (NLT), "Listen to my voice in the morning Lord. Each morning I bring my requests to you and wait expectantly." Friday... We have this hope of expectancy. Now David found a great way to start his day. He says in Psalm 5:1-3 (NLT), "O LORD, hear me as I pray." And that is a great place to start. It really is. Morning sunrise He goes on, "Listen to my cry for help, my King, my God, for I pray to no one but you." And that is so important. We don't try to pump ourselves up by ourself. No, we pray to no one but you, God, my LORD, my King. Now this relationship with God is so, so very important. And then David says, "Listen to my voice in the morning, LORD. Each morning I bring my requests to you" And that is so great. And then he says, "and wait expectantly." Yes, we have this hope of expectancy. We are experienced. That is what a relationship with God and a moment by moment connection does. It makes a difference in our daily wa...

Friday... Yes, we can know this to be true.

Psalm 12:6 (NLT), "The Lord's promises are pure, like silver refined in a furnace, purified seven times over." Friday... Yes, we can know this to be true. Maybe this is what you want to say in this day in which we live. Psalm 12:1-2 (MSG) says, "Quick, I need your helping hand! The last decent person just went down, all the friends I depend on gone. Everyone talks in lie language; lies slide off their oily lips. They doubletalk with forked tongues." Do you ever feel that way?" Have you found that to be true? Well David the writer of this Psalm continues and says in verse 6 something to encourage us, to lift us up, to give us hope. Psalm 12:6 (NLT) says, "The Lord's promises are pure, like silver refined in a furnace, purified seven times over." The Message Paraphrase says verses 6-8 this way, "God's words are pure words, pure silver words refined seven times in the fires of his word-kiln, pure on earth as well as in heaven, God, keep ...

Friday... So what is it that you really fear?

1 Corinthians 15:57 (NLT), "But thank God! He gives us victory over sin and death through our Lord Jesus Christ." Friday... So what is it that you really fear? Yes, fear holds us back. It seems to take hold of us so that we can't even really enjoy living. Now I have found that one of the best ways to handle fear is to solve the problem of what we fear. Let's say that death is what we really fear. Everyday we wake up afraid to get up because we are afraid to do anything because we are afraid to die. And that is so understandable. Now I have found the solution to fearing death. I have through faith taken care of my fear to die. 1 Corinthians 15:57 (NLT) says, "But thank God! He gives us victory over sin and death through our Lord Jesus Christ." Verse 22 (CEV) says, "Adam brought death to all of us, and Christ will bring life to all of us." Death was not God's plan. Adam was created for an eternal life but he and his partner, Eve blew it and sin a...
