Tuesday... And that is what I want to do.


Tuesday... And that is what I want to do.

Last week I mentioned that I had tested positive for Covid. Well, yesterday I tested negative. And as my son, Brett said yesterday, "I'm sure you are thrilled to have your freedom back." And that is so very true. 

Now the first line in today's Psalm is what I want to do today. Psalm 104:1 (NLT) says, "Let all that I am praise the Lord." I have no doubt that he has had a hand in freeing me in so many areas of my life and for sure from this prison of Covid. Do you have some area in your life where you feel shackled and you found that with God in your life that if and when you came to him and asked him to that he would free you? And as you think about what he has done in so many areas of your life do you also want to stop and praise him? So "Let all that I am praise the Lord."

Maybe you still feel shacked. Margaret tested positive a few days after me and she is still positive but she should test negative real soon. Two years ago when we both had Covid, Margaret had to go to the hospital. I was sick at home by myself and I was so concerned that Margaret wasn't going to come home. So when she tested positive this time I had some deep emotion and I had a very deep emfatic time of prayer. But this time was different. It wasn't as bad and we were home together, taking care of each other she will test negative real soon. I'm already praising the Lord for freeing Margaret from her Covid. 

Aagin,  "Let all that I am praise the Lord." So, again, has God freed you from some addiction, from financial or relational problems, or from confessed sins? Maybe it's also your health. Now when we got the results of our Covid tests we found that there were so many other solutions to help free us that we didn't have before. And do you know where they came from.?They came from God. Yes, they came from family and friends, people who cared for us but God used them to get his message to us and it made all of the difference. And whatever you are going through God has answers out there. "Let all that I am praise the Lord."

So if you need help then reach out. God wants to free you. Let people know that you need help. Do something about it. God has a way to free you. Do you know that the people who really helped us where people who had had Covid before and so now we can let others who have it know what to do. But you must reach out. 

So is that what you want to do? So let's do it together. "Let all that I am praise the Lord." Let's do it. Yes, yes #todaysbeginning

Monday... He did it by Himself

Isaiah 44:24b (AMP), "I am the Lord, Maker of all things. Who alone stretches out the heavens, Who spreads out the earth by Myself." Monday... He did it by Himself. Many have a tendency to think very highly of themselves and what they can do. Oh we do have great ability but we are not the source. Yes it is important to have self-confidence but we are limited. The prophet Isaiah in 44:9-10 (NLT) says, "How foolish are those who manufacture idols. These prized objects are really worthless. The people who worship idols don't know this, so they are all put to shame. Who but a fool would make his own god - an idol that cannot help him one bit?" Now later in verse 24 (AMP) he writes, "For the Lord, your Redeemer, and He who formed you from the womb says, 'I am the Lord, Maker of all things, Who alone stretches out the heavens, Who spreads out the earth by Myself.'" I love that. "By Myself." Now we do need confidence but we are foolish to ma...

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 ...
