The Peace of His Presence

For I am the Lord your God who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you.—Isaiah 41:13 (NIV)

IT IS HUMAN nature to be afraid when your future seems unsure and your problems weigh on your mind. Be assured that God knows your path and will help you through any problems you encounter. Instead of focusing on your fear, turn to your faith. Know that “He helps us in the most unexpected ways. He cares for us and saves us when we are low.” (Psalm 136-23)

Lord Jesus, help me to feel the peace of Your presence.

God’s Medicine

Now a woman, having a flow of blood for twelve years, who had spent all her livelihood on physicians and could not be healed by any, came from behind and touched the border of His garment. And immediately her flow of blood stopped.—Luke 8:43–44 (NKJV)

THE WOMAN IN the above verse had tried every treatment and still was not healed. When earthly wisdom and cures disappoint us, there is always hope. If there is something in your life that needs healing—problems, a sickness, a memory—reach out to Jesus and ask for His help.

Heavenly Father, I love You and praise You.

Learning to Recognize Answers to Prayer

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.—Philippians 4:6 (NIV)

OFTEN WE GO from one concern to another without pausing to recognize that God regularly helps us through our problems. What was worrying you a year ago, a month ago? Occasionally, look back and consider the obstacles you have overcome with God’s help. It will give you perspective and confidence that present difficulties will get better.

Heavenly Father, thank You for Your part in solving my past problems and for standing by me today when life seems overwhelming!

Celebrate the Epiphany

Where is the One who has been born king of the Jews? We saw His star when it rose and have come to worship Him.—Matthew 2:2 (NIV)

TODAY IS THE Epiphany, sometimes called Little Christmas because it commemorates the arrival of the Wise Men in Bethlehem where they presented baby Jesus with gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. Today, only 12 days after Christmas, if the joy of giving seems very far away remind yourself that we are the recipients of God’s goodness throughout the year, at all times, in all seasons. In turn, we should give our time, talent, resources and love.

Heavenly Father, help me to always remember when I give Your light flows through me.

Victorious Forgetfulness

Forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. Philippians 3:13-14 (NKJV)

NORMAN VINCENT PEALE referred to “victorious forgetfulness” as the art of forgetting about the things holding you back, letting go and reaching forward for what lies ahead. Yesterday is over. Focus on today.

Heavenly Father, thank You for Your great truth and reminders that tomorrow will be wonderful. Help me forget the past and live today with a consciousness of the greatness and the opportunity of life.

Build Your Confidence

In the fear of the Lord is strong confidence.—Proverbs 14:26 (KJV)

WHEN YOU GET close to God, your weaknesses, self-doubts and insecurities disintegrate. You, as a child of God, have the strength within you to meet any situation. Make a plan of what you aspire to be, and hold it firmly in your mind. Commit to living into God’s hands and let Him bring out of you the powerful person within you who is able to overcome.

Heavenly Father, let me feel close to You. Grant, O Lord, that in this moment I may truly surrender my life to You and realize the power that is within me.

God’s Word Heals

Every word of God is flawless…—Proverbs 30:5 NIV
Sometimes a small careless word can cut deep into your spirit and cause lasting pain. Are you still holding on to the pain from a comment said in anger or spite? God’s love and power, His Word can heal your wounds.
Heavenly Father, replace my pain with Your love. Give me patience and understanding to bear disagreements and generosity to share my blessings. Guide me to be careful and kind with my words.
