Do
not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.
James
1:22

International Version
THOUGHTS ABOUT
TODAY'S VERSE
What
we know and even what we believe are not that significant if they don't show up
in the way we live. Pure and simple, faith not lived everyday is not faith, it
is facade.
MY PRAYER
Holy
God, help me put into practice what I know is your will and your truth today.
Through Jesus I pray. Amen.
WHEN THINGS ARE OUT
OF CONTROL
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
“Good
sense makes a man restrain his anger, and it is his glory to overlook a
transgression or an offense.”
(Proverbs
19:11, AMP)
TODAY’S WORD
Every
day, we have opportunities to get upset, be frustrated, or get offended. Maybe
you had plans that didn’t work out, or someone was rude to you at the office.
Maybe you were doing something that should have taken one hour and it ended up
taking three. Life is full of inconveniences, but even though we can’t always
control our circumstances, we can control our reaction. I heard somebody say,
“Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you respond.”
We
should always go out each day with a positive attitude, full of hope and
expecting God’s favor. But at the same time, we should recognize that most days
are not going to go exactly as we plan. Remember, we were created to live in
peace. Peace is our position of power. If you get stressed because you got off
schedule or upset because your child wouldn’t eat his breakfast, or frustrated
because somebody offended you, what you’re doing is giving away your power.
Instead, make the decision to release those offenses and disappointments so you
can live in peace and enjoy the day as the blessing God prepared for you!
A PRAYER FOR TODAY
Father
in heaven, today I release every care, concern, offense and disappointment to
You. I choose to keep the peace that You have given me. I look forward to today
knowing that You are with me, leading me in victory in Jesus’ name! Amen.
