If
any of you lacks wisdom he should ask God, who gives generously to all without
finding fault, and it will be given to him.
James
1:5
New
International Version
THOUGHTS ABOUT
TODAY'S VERSE
Wisdom
is that illusive quality we respect in others and find so difficult to develop
in ourselves. Yet God promises it to those who really ask. But remember the
secret of ASKing -- asking, seeking, and knocking. Or better yet, check out
Proverbs 2. Wisdom is ours only if we seek it above all other possessions and
value it above all other diversions. God longs to impart it, but there is
something about wisdom that demands we value it before we can receive it.
MY PRAYER
Gracious
giver of all good gifts, please bless me with wisdom today. Let me reflect your
will and live for your glory in all my decisions. Let your Kingdom guide my
heart as I make my choices and have your Spirit lead me in your ways. I
confess, Father, that I cannot guide my own steps without your help. So grant
me wisdom this day. I pray in Jesus name. Amen.
HIGH TIME
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
“...It
is high time to awake out of sleep; for now our salvation is nearer than when
we first believed.”
(Romans
13:11, NKJV)
TODAY’S WORD
So
many people today are living overwhelmed, exhausted and overburdened by the
pressures of life. They’ve allowed themselves to live on autopilot, day in and
day out, passive toward the things God has place in their hearts.
If
that’s you, now is the time to get your fire back! Let me encourage you to
press past the things that would try to hold you back. God is saying, “It’s
high time to wake up.” Notice that phrasing. Not just time but high time. That
means it’s incredibly important because you are coming into a destiny moment!
You are sitting on the launching pad. God is about to thrust you to a new
level! Now is not the time to be passive, sloppy or undisciplined. Now more
than ever, it’s time to get focused and start moving forward!
Why
is this so important? Just like the verse says, your salvation is nearer than
it’s ever been. That means you are closer to seeing that dream come to pass
than you’ve ever been. You are closer to meeting the right person, closer to
that healing, closer to that breakthrough, promotion and provision. You may not
be able to see it, but it can see you! Your victory is right around the corner.
It’s high time to do what God is asking you to do so you can embrace the
blessing He has for you!
A PRAYER FOR TODAY
Father
God, thank You for Your hand of blessing and mercy upon my life. Today I choose
to rise up. I choose to shake off mediocrity so I can move forward into the
blessing You have in store for me in Jesus’ name. Amen.
