Our God Answers Prayers
It’s true, God hears our prayers. He alone has the power to answer the cries of our heart. But, as His children, it’s also important that we learn how to get in agreement with His perfect will every time we pray. When we pray according to God’s will, we can rest in the knowledge that everything will fall in the right places in His perfect time.
“But the Lord’s plans stand firm forever; His intentions can never be shaken.”-Psalm 33:11
God Has A Plan
Sometimes, we go through things in life that we don’t fully understand. Today, God wants to remind us that, where we are right now is part of where we are going. Every experience has a purpose. The enemy will tempt us to give up and question God’s love, but don’t listen to his lies. Instead of feeling down, declare good things in your life! In the end, you will see that all things will work out for your own good because of God’s great love for you.
“O Lord my God, Your plans for us are too numerous to list. You have no equal. If I tried to recite all your wonderful deeds, I would never come to the end of them.” -Psalm 40:5
Decide To Win
One sure way to lose the battle we are facing today is to entertain doubts that God will help us overcome our troubles. The enemy will do everything to discredit what God has already given us, because He knows that when we fully trust God’s promises, nothing will be impossible for us.
“Because he loves me,” says the LORD, “I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges My name. He will call on Me, and I will answer him.”-Psalm 91:14-15
The Link To Your Victory
There are times when we wonder, “how can I cope with the challenges that I face each day?” It is during these moments that we should hold on to God’s Word and never doubt His promises. Instead of feeling fearful, let us all rejoice in knowing that God has an abundant supply of everything that we will need.
“Trust in the Lord and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture…”-Psalm 37:3
Our Problem Solver
Do you have a problem today? God is reminding us that relying on our own understanding, our own plans or solutions to our problems will only weigh us down. But if we choose to trust in the Lord, if we seek Him with all our heart, the clear direction and solution will come our way. He has already provided a way out.
“The Lord your God is with you, He is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, He will quiet you with his love, He will rejoice over you with singing.” -Zephaniah 3:17
Under God’s Care
Sometimes we feel fearful about what will happen tomorrow. God is assuring us today that when we are in constant communication with Him through His Word, we will walk steadily in peace and victory. Jesus said, here on earth we will have trials and sorrows, but we must never give up. He has already won the victory for us.
“I have told you all this so that you may have peace in Me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.” -John 16:33
A Cheerful Attitude
Do you sometimes feel tired of doing the same thing over and over again at work? Today God is reminding us that promotion comes from Him. And although He understands our feelings, He wants us to remain patient and grow in grace as we face different challenges each day. God can see all our efforts and in due time, we will receive the reward He has promised for those who will not grow tired of doing good.
“And whatever you do or say, do it as a representative of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through him to God the Father.” -Colossians 3:17
A Trusting Attitude
Hard times change us. What God will reward us later on in life depends on how we pass the test we are given right now. The Bible says, the eyes of God roam the earth, looking for someone whose heart is perfect toward Him. May we be the kind of person whose heart trusts in Him even if we go through things we don’t completely understand.
“Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight.”-Proverbs 3:5-6
A Selfless Attitude
What we do in secret is far more important to God than what we do on the outside. Keep in mind that we may not be able to please everyone, but if we please our Father in Heaven at all times, we can expect favor and blessings to show up in places where we least expect it. Goodness & mercy will follow us wherever we will go.
“…and your Father who sees in secret shall reward you openly.” -Matthew 6:4
Receive Extra Favor
God wants to show us how a good attitude can attract extra blessings in our lives. When we go the extra mile at work or for someone, when we give more than what is expected, we are assured that extra favors will come our way in every area of our lives.
“For God is working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases him.”-Philippians 2:13
Be Still My Soul
Yes! We can still have victory even if people reject us. We must continue to trust that God will bring to justice all the pain we have been through. He sees everything! It’s very important that we know Him as an all powerful God who can reverse any negative circumstance in our favor. Let us follow His will and He promised to be our refuge.
“Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult, but with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing.”-1 Peter 3:9
