A Promise and a Pledge

God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: ‘I AM has sent me to you.’”—Exodus 3:14 (NIV)

WHEN THE LORD reveals Himself to Moses at the burning bush, Moses is afraid. He asks, “What if they ask for Your name? What do I tell them?” God replies: I AM WHO I AM. God is unchanging. He’s the Lord of strength and glory. He is your Provider and Protector. When you are afraid, call to Him.

Heavenly Father, I trustingly leave my worries in Your hands.

Start Each Day with God

In the morning, Lord, You hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before You and wait expectantly.—Psalm 5:3 (NIV)

START THE DAY with God in mind. Pray, read a devotion, sing, take a walk, do any of a number of things that help you spiritually empower and prepare you for whatever comes your way.

Lord, let me begin my day with You.

Scripture for a Joy-Filled Day

Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!—Philippians 4:4 (NIV)

START THINKING JOYFULLY. Think of every wonderful thing the Lord has done for you. Celebrate the fact that He is always with you. When you consider the implications of that fact, there is every reason to rejoice and be happy, for it means that nothing can ever defeat you.

Lord Jesus, You are my Joy.

Feeling Doubtful

He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, “Quiet! Be still!”—Mark 4:39 (NIV)

DOUBT IS NORMAL. Even the apostles had moments of uncertainty. Why did doubts rise in their minds? Perhaps it was simply that God’s plan was bigger than they could grasp. So when the storms of doubt come, lean into the wind and believe. And remember, no matter what you’re feeling, Jesus is still in charge.

Heavenly Father, help me to remember that not understanding is different from not believing.

When Anger Strikes

Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry.—Ephesians 4:26 (NIV)

WHEN WE ARE furious, Scripture advises that we should “Tremble and do not sin; when you are on your beds, search your hearts and be silent” (Psalm 4:4). Once the clouds of emotion have cleared, most of us recognize that holding onto anger actually hurts us more than the person we’re mad at. The burden that anger places on our hearts can be lifted when we lift our hearts to God.

Dear Lord, help me to put away all bitterness wrath and anger. Guide me to peace.

Get Well with the Bible

He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak…those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.—Isaiah 40:29, 31 (NIV)

WE’RE IN THE midst of the flu season and chances are that you or someone you love has been sick lately. Don’t underestimate the power of your mind in promoting wellness. Pray, talk, and believe healthy healing thoughts; praise God for His healing power. Always take a positive view of yourself as healthy, vital, and vigorous; believe the power of the healing God is working in you. Several times a day, offer up a prayer of affirmation, reaching out to God for his healing and strength.

Dear Lord, I need Your divine comfort. Please help heal me. Give me courage to face tomorrow and wisdom to appreciate the blessings of friends and loved ones who care about me. Most of all, thank You for Your healing love which strengthens me and gives me peace.

His Word in Your Heart

Thy word have I hid in mine heart that I might not sin against Thee.—Psalm 119:11 (KJV)

THE PSALMIST WHO wrote the verse above believes the best place to keep God’s word is deep in the heart. In other words, know His instructions and memorize them so they are readily at hand, available to draw on when guidance is needed. Hide His word in your heart and you’ll need no other security.

Lord, help me infuse Your word into my life.

Live in God’s Light

When Jesus spoke again to the people, He said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows Me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”—John 8:12 (NIV)

GOD WANTS TO make you whole. Jesus has promised that, “Whoever follows Me will…have the light of life” (John 8:12). Can you think of a healthier, happier condition than being filled with God-given light? When dark challenges come, call on Jesus and rejoice as He draws you to the light of His love.

Heavenly Father, You are the true light. Shine upon me.

The Power of Fasting

And when you fast, don’t make it obvious…for they try to look miserable and disheveled so people will admire them for their fasting…But when you fast, comb your hair and wash your face. Then no one will notice that you are fasting, except your Father, who knows what you do in private. And your Father, who sees everything, will reward you.—Matthew 6:16–18 (NLT)

FASTING—GIVING UP something in order to focus on God—can draw us closer to Jesus, but only if we can do it without bragging. Jesus warns us to keep our fasting private so that we can focus on Him and discover the root of our needs, which Jesus can step in and meet.

Heavenly Father, today I will give up something that I consume mindlessly—social media, television, snacking—and focus on You.

Unfreeze Your Heart

Judge not, that you be not judged.—Matthew 7:1 (ESV)

SOMETIMES WE MAKE the mistake of freezing people in time. We remember them at their worst moments and don’t give them a second chance or have faith that they can change. In God’s grace we can let go of our assumptions of people and open our hearts to see others as Christ sees them.

Heavenly Father, in the midst of winter, help me to let go of thoughts of others that are frozen in time. Unfreeze my heart.

The Right Direction

Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.—Matthew 7:13 (NIV)

MOST OF US need a guide in our lives. Otherwise, we are likely to go astray, get lost and spend endless time on useless things. Perhaps the best guide for living is Jesus’s great commandment: “Love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbor as thyself.” (Luke 10:27)

Lord, remind us to reach out every day to the guidelines You have given us.

Total Surrender

Whoever finds their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life for my sake will find it.—Matthew 10:39 (NIV)

BILLY GRAHAM SAID, “If you want a change in your life, if you want forgiveness and peace and joy that you’ve never known before, God demands total surrender. He becomes the Lord and the ruler of your life.” Most of us struggle with unconditional surrender, yet once the decision is reached, the leap of faith made. Once God is accepted at His word and we are forgiven and reconciled by His grace, there is only one question most people ask: Why did I wait so long?

Dear Lord, I surrender my old self to You. I trust You to make me new.
