Tuesday... What are you facing today and what are you facing tomorrow?


Tuesday... What are you facing today and what are you facing tomorrow? Are starting today with some anxiety? And what about tomorrow?

The unknown of a new day can cause us to want to go back to bed and not face it. Especially if we have gone through the anxieties that we have gone through this past year. Fear and anxiety build upon fear and anxiety but it doesn't have to. The realization that we have gone through our yesterday and have survived can also build upon us to the point that it seems that we can handle anything.

But there is more. Look at Psalm 121:5-7 (NLT), "The Lord himself watches over you! The Lord stands beside you as your protective shade. The sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon at night. The Lord keeps you from all harm and watches over your life." And then verse 8, "The Lord keeps watch over you as you come and go, both now [today] and forever [tomorrow]" Yes He sees what you are facing today and He sees what you are facing tomorrow. He is personally watching over you. He knows and He is involved.

Back in verse 4 (Amp) it says, "Behold, He who keeps Israel will neither slumber [briefly] not sleep [soundly]." He will be wide awake when you need Him. And then verse 8 in the Amplified Bible, "The Lord will guard your going and coming in [everything you do] from this time forth and forever." Everything you do, not just some, not just what happens in the day, today, not just the night and tomorrow but also forevermore. Now with that you can handle whatever you are facing today and tomorrow and forever.

So what are you facing today? What are you facing tomorrow? Know this, you are not facing it alone, you are facing it with God. 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...
