Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good. His love endures forever. Give thanks to the God of heaven. His love endures forever.
--Psalm
136:1 and 26

THOUGHTS ABOUT
TODAY'S VERSE
Our
thanks arises from the nature of God and his glory and goodness. The steadfast reason we give thanks is
because God is good and his love is inexhaustible, beyond decay, and never
ending.
MY PRAYER
O
great Lover of my soul, thank you for sending Jesus as the demonstration of
your love. I love you Father. I love you for who you are and what you have
done. I love you for what you have
promised. I love you for the blessings
you shower upon me. I love you for
giving me hope. I love you because you
first loved me. I love you because you
are worthy of all love. But I confess
that my love is not as strong as yours, so please, fill me with your love by
the power of the Holy Spirit. Through
Jesus I lift my heart to you. Amen.
Closer Than You Think
Today's Scripture:
Do
not cast away your confidence, which has great reward.
Hebrews
10:35, NKJV.
Today's Word:
Have
you been praying and believing for something that seems like it’s taking a lot
longer than you thought? Many times, people can miss God’s best simply because
they give up before they see their “due season” come. Don’t let that be you! Be
encouraged today, your answer is closer than you think. If it seems like things
are getting more difficult, remember, when the intensity heats up, that means
you are closer to your victory. It always seems darkest just before the dawn
arrives.
We
serve a faithful God, and He’s working behind the scenes on your behalf. Don’t
cast away your confidence today because your reward is coming. And just like a
new mother forgets about her labor pain once she is finally holding her
newborn, you’ll forget about your struggle when you are holding on to your
promise. While you are waiting, keep an attitude of faith and expectancy. Wake
up every morning and say out loud, “I’ve come too far to give up now. My due
season is coming. I will reap my harvest.” Stay in faith and look for His hand
of blessing because He has promised you victory, and it’s closer than you
think!
Prayer for Today:
Father
in heaven, today I stand believing that You are working behind the scenes on my
behalf. Give me Your strength to stand in faith until I see every promise
fulfilled in my life in Jesus’ name. Amen.
