Thursday... Maybe we need to pray this, today.

Psalm 90:14 (NIRV), "Satisfy us with your faithful love every morning. Then we can sing for joy and be glad all our days."

Thursday... Maybe we need to pray this, today.

And when we realize it to be true and answered, it will make such a difference. Yes it will!

Moses writes in Psalm 90:14 (NIRV), "Satisfy us with your faithful love every morning. Then we can sing for joy and be glad all our days." Yes, yes!

I'm not sure when he wrote this Psalm but think of all his days in the wilderness with all those people who were suppose to be headed to the Promised Land from Egypt but who kept getting off track. Those were very tough days even for this leader.

So where are you? What kind of world are you waking up to?

Verses 13-16 says, "LORD, please stop punishing us! How long will you keep it up? Be kind to us. Satisfy us with your faithful love every morning. Then we can sing for joy and be glad all our days. Make us glad for as many days as you have made us suffer. Give us joy for as many years as we've had trouble. Show us your mighty acts. Let our children see your glorious power."

I love the Psalms. They are so honest.

And then verse 17, "May the Lord our God always be pleased with us. Lord, make what we do succeed. Please, make what we do succeed."

Yes, why not go back through verses 13-17 and apply what Moses prayed to your life and then pray out to God. What is your desire? What do you need? Where are you?

The Message Paraphrase says verse 16 this way, "Let your servants see what you're best at - the ways you rule and bless your children." And back to verse 14 in the Amplified Bible, "O satisfy us with Your lovingkindness in the morning [now, before we grow older], that we may rejoice and be glad all our days."

Yes, maybe we do need to pray this today. 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...
