devotional: Prayer for the Day - February 2, 2014 - 02/01/14 08:41 PM
God, I know that you had the power to part the Red Sea, and that You still have that same power. It was scary for Moses and the people of Israel to step out into that fast-moving water. But, by faith, they obeyed and you blessed. When I face my "Red Seas" of life that look scary, that make me feel helpless or uncertain, please give me the courage and faith to step out and follow You. Help me to keep moving through the doors of opportunities You provide; through the difficult decisions and circumstances of life, because I know You … (2 comments)

"For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God For, All men are like grass, and all their glory is like the flowers of the field; the grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of the Lord stands forever. And this is the word that was preached to you" (1 Peter 1:23-25). Dear Father, help me to remember that my glory here will fade as the flowers. Remind me that my real glory will come in Heaven, where flowers never fade and grass never withers. Thank You … (0 comments)

God, I know that You have begun a work in me. I'm trusting You to "carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus." Please keep my eyes open, that I will see what is Your work and Your will; that I will follow You and You only; that I will obey Your prompting and resist the detours and roadblocks that Satan will attempt to put in the way. Please give me wisdom and strength for the journey. With thanksgiving and praise for You, amen.

Dear God, Please help me to be sensitive to other people's needs and feelings. Help me to love them and encourage them through special touches, like remembering special occasions through phone calls, prayers, notes, cards, visits, even gifts at times. Help me to always make other people feel special and valued, for they are all your creation and deserve to be valued. I pray that through my words and actions, you will be glorified and lifted up and people will be drawn unto You. In Jesus' name, amen

"You have received of us how you ought to walk and to please God, so you would abound more and more. For you know the commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus. For this is the will of God, even your sanctification" (1 Thess. 4:1-3). Dear Father in Heaven, Thank you for giving me your Word as a light unto my path and a lamp unto my feet. Please forgive me when I am "hard-headed" and do not follow your commandments. I want to do your will, which I understand is based on your Word. Sometimes it is difficult to … (5 comments)

Lord, thank You for Your wonderful promises! Though in this world, I face troubles, you have told me to take heart because You have overcome the world! (John 16:33 ). I am so relieved and thankful that through You, I am an overcomer. So, Lord, when I am overwhelmed or discouraged or faced by great challenges or tempted, please remind me that I can overcome when I rely on You. Remind me to "take it to the Lord in prayer" and allow You to carry me through. I also pray for wisdom and for that way out when temptation comes my … (11 comments)

devotional: Prayer for the Day - 04/11/11 01:54 AM
Lord, Please make me a blessing. I present myself to you, a living sacrifice, for ministry to the world. I pray that I would see others through your eyes of love and concern and that I would ask myself "What would Jesus do?" Please forgive me of the times I have been selfish or apathetic, for the times I have missed out on the opportunity to minister and be a blessing. I pray for all the people in my family and community who need a blessing right now. I pray for people around the world who need your hand of blessing … (10 comments)

devotional: Prayer for the Day - 04/07/11 03:12 AM
Lord, "here am I, send me." Isaiah experienced your presence and fell on his face in repentance. He was so in awe that he cried out for you to send Him. Lord, as a child of yours, I beg for Your forgiveness and ask You to send me out into my world of influence to do Your will, to reach others for You, to accomplish that which You would have me do. I pray for your guidance always and your wisdom, and boldness through the Holy Spirit. I pray for my neighbors, that those who know you would grow closer to … (5 comments)

devotional: Prayer for the Day - 04/06/11 02:28 AM
Dear God, Your Word and acts of the past demonstrate to me Your desires to reflect Your nature and power through every individual--including me! I know that's because those who reflect Your glory affect the world. I pray that in all situations I face, I will be obedient and dependent upon You and give You all the praise and glory, so that You will demonstrate Your power that all people may know of Your mighty acts and the glorious splendor of Your Kingdom. I'd like to be able to say, with the Apostle Paul, "My message and my preaching were not … (7 comments)

"And the heavens declare the glory of God; And the firmament shows His handiwork." Dear God, I praise you, Creator of the universe, father of mankind, sustainer of all. May you be glorified through your creation and through my life. Please minister through me to the people around me. Help me to be a witness to the truth of your Word and your work. Thank you for this beautiful day, I will choose to rejoice and be glad in it!  In Jesus' name I pray, amen

devotional: Bible Verse of the Day - 03/24/11 01:23 AM
 Blessed is anyone who endures temptation. Such a one has stood the test and will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him. 13 No one, when tempted, should say, "I am being tempted by God"; for God cannot be tempted by evil and he himself tempts no one. 14 But one is tempted by one's own desire, being lured and enticed by it; 15 then, when that desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin, and that sin, when it is fully grown, gives birth to death. 16 Do not be deceived, my beloved James 1:12-16

Dear God, Thank you for your beautiful words of life, your Holy Bible full of wisdom, examples, guidance, instruction, promises, enlightenment, and life-giving knowledge. Thank you that your Word is such an encouragement at times, and a chastisement at other times. It helps me find answers to life questions that arise and gives me peace when I am confused. It teaches me about your power and love and reinforces the importance of following Jesus, my Savior, and of being a living testimony in this world. Please forgive me for not spending as much time in your Word as I should. Give … (3 comments)

devotional: Bible Verse of the Day - 03/14/11 01:57 AM
 
"Rejoice" we hear this word lots in the Word of God and we tend to just say the word instead of acting with this word. Rejoice is one of those words not looked intently at and just what it means and the depth of it. There are 21 meanings to this word rejoice in the original language, one means to jump with joy, to act with the word, another means to be joined with the word, and another is to boast "that is of where joy comes from". One says to spin around, another to sing, shout, too wave joyously, too laugh … (7 comments)

devotional: Prayer for Japan & Hawaii - 03/11/11 12:55 AM
 
Merciful God, who in your great love and goodness hears the prayers of all your people and is ever-present with those who walk in the shadow of death: we hold in our prayers all who suffer loss and devastation in the wake of this morning's disaster in Japan. 
      Comfort those who mourn. Give hope to those whose hope has been taken away. Give peace to those searching for missing loved ones and let answers come quickly.  We pray for supernatural protection over those that are in the path of this oncoming storm in Hawaii.  Strengthen the will of people … (14 comments)

Jesus said, "I have come that they may have life and that they may have it more abundantly" (John 10:10). Thank you, Jesus, for your obedience to the Father. Thank you, God, for Your loving sacrifice. Thank you, Holy Spirit, for Your comforting guidance. Life is so much more with the hope I have in You, Lord. I am so glad that you have provided the way for me to have eternal life in Your presence--in a place where there will be no more tears and no more suffering; a place where there will be unimaginable joy, praise, worship, and peace. … (2 comments)

Dear Lord, Please help me to be bold, through the power of the Holy Spirit, and to speak the words that need to be said, even if they may be an affront to those around me As long as I am in Your will, I should not fear. Please, God, use my words and life to draw others to You. Help me to become the ambassador You want me to be, to offer hope and extend life to those who live in darkness. Protect me and all of Your true children from harm and evil. "For thine is the kingdom and … (7 comments)

devotional: A Psalm for the Evening - 03/03/11 03:21 PM
God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. 2 Therefore we will not fear, though the earth should change, though the mountains shake in the heart of the sea; 3 though its waters roar and foam, though the mountains tremble with its tumult.  4 There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy habitation of the Most High. 5 God is in the midst of the city; it shall not be moved; God will help it when the morning dawns. 6 The nations are in an uproar, the kingdoms totter; he utters his voice, the earth melts. 7 The … (3 comments)

"Awake, O north wind, and come, O south! blow upon my garden, that its spices may flow out.  Let My beloved come to His garden and eat its pleasant fruits...(Song of Solomon 4:16)
 

 
 
 
The Bride is so encouraged and emboldened by the fact that Jesus is so tender toward her and that He delights in her. She has the courage to cry out a very important two-fold prayer for the release of the presence and anointing of God in her life.
 
First, she says to the the Lord, "Awake, O north wind," which were … (8 comments)

God, You are so good. Your love knows no bounds, and You always look at my heart. I am willing Lord. Mold me and make me into that precious child and Christian light that You would have me be. In Jesus' name, amen.
 
1 I waited patiently for the Lord; he inclined to me and heard my cry. 2 He drew me up from the desolate pit, out of the miry bog, and set my feet upon a rock, making my steps secure. 3 He put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God. Many will see and fear, and … (5 comments)
