Christ
was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a
second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting
for him.
Hebrews
9:28
New
International Version
THOUGHTS ABOUT
TODAY'S VERSE...
Who
are you waiting for? Can you think of anything more exciting than to wait for
Jesus to come take us home in his glory.
MY PRAYER...
Majestic King of the
Ages, may your Kingdom come in all its fullness and every knee bow to your
Savior, and may you grant that it may come to pass in our generation. Through
Jesus I expectantly pray. Amen.
LET THIS BE YOUR
PRAYER
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
“...Nevertheless
not my will, but Yours, be done”
(Luke
22:42b, NKJV)
TODAY’S WORD
Like
many people today, I have big dreams and goals. I have desires in my heart. But
my prayer now is, “God, not my will, but let Your will be done.” If a door
closes, it’s no big deal; I let it go. If my plans don’t work out, no big deal;
I know God has something better. I’ve learned to not get so consumed by a dream
that if it doesn’t happen my way, I get all bent out of shape.
Maybe
you’ve gone through a disappointment. You don’t understand it. You could easily
be bitter, live with a chip on your shoulder, and give up on your dreams.
Realize today that God is at work in your life. He is directing your steps.
What you thought was a setback is going to turn out to be a setup for a
comeback! When you surrender your will to Him, when you humble yourself before
Him, that’s when God can take you to another level.
Today,
shake off the self-pity. Shake off the disappointment and realize that God has
you in the palm of His hand. Know that He has good plans in store for your
future, better than you could ever imagine! Trust Him with your whole heart
today and every day!
A PRAYER FOR TODAY
Precious
heavenly Father, today I surrender every area of my heart, mind and life to
You. Have Your way in me. Do Your will in my life. Let everything I am bring
glory to You in all things! I bless You today and always in Jesus’ name. Amen.
