The Power of a Moment

Jesus turned and saw her. “Take heart, daughter,” he said, “your faith has healed you.” And the woman was healed at that moment.—Matthew 9:22 (NIV)

When you put your trust in God, life can dramatically change in a moment. Like the above verse and again in Matthew 17:18, God’s healing can take place instantly, in a moment’s time. If you are going through a hard time, reflect on His grace and His ability to answer your prayers in an instant.

Heavenly Father, thank You for Your healing love, which strengthens me and gives me peace.

Celebrate Jesus

Nehemiah said, “Go and enjoy choice food and sweet drinks, and send some to those who have nothing prepared. This day is holy to our Lord. Do not grieve, for the joy of the Lord is your strength.”—Nehemiah 8:10 (NIV)

To know Jesus is to live a life of joy. When you follow His path, you have the glory of feeling His joy. Of course, life has its ups and downs but because of Him, you can feel His love and His presence during the tough times. He is your shield. He is your joy!

Heavenly Father, You are my reason to celebrate!

Be Good to Yourself

Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.—1 Corinthians 6:19-20 (ESV)

Today, treat yourself! Spend at least ten minutes nurturing yourself, whether it be drinking a cup of tea, relaxing in the sun, do something nice just for you. Pat yourself on the back for a job well done. A life-well lived. Look forward to the blessings that will unfold in the day ahead.

Dear Lord, sometimes I forget to care for myself. Help me remember that I am important in Your eyes and should be important in my own.

Pray Your Way Through Your Day

Pray continually…—1 Thessalonians 5:17 (NIV)

Today’s faith exercise is to pray throughout your day. Make an effort to consciously work God into your thinking. Invite Him into your mind, ask Him to show you opportunities and inspired ideas. Reach out and invite His amazing power to manifest in your life.

Heavenly Father, I want to talk with You about everything.

Borrowed Things

He must increase, but I must decrease.—John 3:30 (ESV)

Dr. Norman Vincent Peale said, “Did it ever occur to you that you do not really own a thing, not a single thing? You are entrusted by the Lord according to your own ability to handle some of His goods for a while. If you use things selfishly for yourself, you will probably lose them and you will certainly lose the values that would come to you if you would use them for God.“

Heavenly Father, free me of selfish thoughts and deeds.

God’s Whispers

Answer me, Lord, answer me, so these people will know that You, Lord, are God, and that You are turning their hearts back again.—1 Kings 18:37 (NIV)

When Elijah was afraid and hiding in a cave, God’s voice came as a gentle whisper encouraging him to continue on. Do you hear God’s whispers in your life? A good way to tune your ear to His guidance is to take several moments throughout the day, be still and focus on Him. Invite Him into your heart.

Heavenly Father, help me to be quiet so that I hear Your whispers.

Life’s Curve Balls

The Lord directs the steps of the godly. He delights in every detail of their lives.—Psalm 37:23 (NLT)

It’s been said that man plans and God laughs, but it can be upsetting when it happens to you. Trust is the key to keeping your chin up when your best plans and the future you had mapped out suddenly take a sharp, unexpected detour. Only God knows what tomorrow holds. By developing a strong faith, you can confidently walk wherever God calls you to go.

Lord, I’m doing my best to be faithful and flexible, to follow Your lead anywhere it takes me.

Turn Annoyance into Gratitude

“For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways,” declares the Lord. “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways.”—Isaiah 55:8-9 (NIV)

It’s not easy feeling thankful when you are aggravated by setbacks. No matter what you face, one thing remains the same—God. He is with you through life’s big and small problems. Thank Him for being there and trust Him to see you through.

Lord, help turn my complaints into praise. Praise for You!

Scripture for a New Start

Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows Me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”—John 8:12 (ESV)

Dr. Norman Vincent Peale said if you want to make a new start in your life put this verse in your mind and center your thoughts on it every day. Repeat, “I am the light of the world. Follow me and you won’t be walking in the dark. You will have the light that gives life.”

Heavenly Father, help me to see You as the One who walks with me, blessing my day and guiding me to live my life meaningfully.

Snap Out of the Worry Cycle

Therefore, I say to you, don’t worry about your life, what you’ll eat or what you’ll drink, or about your body, what you’ll wear. Isn’t life more than food and the body more than clothes?—Matthew 6:25 (CEB)

Are you a chronic worrier? Do you agonize over big things and little things no matter how hard you try? If so, take Jesus’ words to heart. He tells you not to worry. Worry is a choice you have power over. Instead of feeding your anxiety, focus your trust on Him.

Dear God, I give You my worries so that You may give me Your peace.

How Are You Doing?

I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.—Romans 12:1 (KJV)

Sometimes stress and responsibilities and can take up all your time. Don’t get caught in the trap of running from place to place without spending too much time thinking about where you are going and why. Take a moment and reflect. Review your priorities and ask God for insight and guidance. Are you in the center of His will or have you let other things crowd Him out?

Dear Lord, align my life with Your purpose.

Pray “As If”

Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful.—Colossians 4:2 (NIV)

There’s an old saying attributed to St. Ignatius, “Pray as if everything depends on God, work as if everything depends on you.” When you pray and work with all you’ve got, you really can’t lose. Even if you fall short of reaching your goal, you will be better for the experience.

Dear Lord, encourage me to keep working, keep trying, keep hoping, and keep praying.
