Tuesday... So here is where our worth comes from.

Psalm 57:2 (AMP), "I will cry to God Most High, who accomplishes all things on my behalf [for He completes my purpose in His plan]."

Tuesday... So here is where our worth comes from.

King David was sitting in a cave after running from King Saul who was wanting to kill him but David wrote while in that cave Psalm 57:2 (AMP) which says, "I will cry to God Most High, who accomplishes all things on my behalf [for He completes my purpose in His plan]." Now that is where our worth comes from. We as an individual are a part of God's plan and He will accomplish all things on our behalf.

So if you do not have a relationship with God then it is all on you. So many get their worth and their plans from themself. So I wonder how that is going for them? Yes at the time that David was in that cave it looked like Saul had the upper hand but it wasn't over yet.

The New Living Translation says, "I cry out to God most High, to God who will fulfill his purpose for me." That is really something to realize. Yes God has a purpose for me.

Let's say our parents have a purpose for us. They have it all planned out but they don't have what it takes to fulfill it. Even if we have a plan but in this day in which we live that it seems isn't enough.

Verse 3 says, "He will send help from heaven to rescue me, disgracing those who hound me. My God will send forth his unfailing love and faithfulness." And he is saying this and praying this and believing this while he is hiding in a cave. And he believes it! Yes, he believes it. He has great worth.

The Message says in verses 1-3, "Be good to me, God - and now! I've run to you for dear life. I'm hiding out under your wings until the hurricane blows over. I call out to High God, the God who holds me together. He sends orders from heaven and saves me, he humiliates those who kick me around. God delivers generous love, he makes good on his word."

Jesus in John 12:44 (NLT) says, "I have come as a light to shine in the dark world, so that all who put their trust in me will no longer remain in the dark." And again, David writes in Psalm 57:2 (AMP), "I will cry to God Most High, who accomplishes all things on my behalf [for He completes my purpose in His plan]."

Jesus then says in verses 49-50 in John 12 (AMP), "For I have never spoken on My own initiative or authority, but the Father Himself who sent Me has given Me a commandment regarding what to say and what to speak. I know that His commandment is eternal life. So the things I speak, I speak [in accordance with His exact instruction,] just as the Father had told me." Yes we have great worth because God the Father sent His Son to fulfill His purpose in us.

Yes, King Saul was killed while riding his horse looking for David and Jesus was killed on a cross so we could live but was resurrected and is now with His Father in heaven. So, "I will cry to God Most High, who accomplishes all things on my behalf [for He completes my purpose in His plan]." And that is where our worth come from. 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...
