Fan the Flame

For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands.—2 Timothy 1:6 (NIV)

Sometimes God leads us to opportunities and challenges that takes us out of our comfort zone. When we go above and beyond our personal abilities, we show the world that He is the way. So if you feel overwhelmed by a situation that is forcing you to grow, turn your worry into prayer.

Heavenly Father, I will follow Your instructions, knowing that I am not doing it alone. You are the power and the glory!

Have Mercy on Me

Many rebuked him and told him to be quiet, but he shouted all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”—Mark 10:48 (NIV)

In the above verse, Blind Bartimaeus asked Jesus for mercy and his vision was restored. Bartimaeus’ testimony opened the eyes of countless others who grew in faith and started following Jesus. So many beautiful transformations were made possible simply because Bartimaeus had faith and asked for mercy.

Gracious God, have mercy on me.

The Importance of Forgiveness

For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more.—Hebrews 8:12 (NIV)

Dwight L. Moody said, “When you go into God’s Kingdom, you go through the door of forgiveness.” Are you getting in your own way of growing spiritually by holding bitterness in your heart? Reflect on your past and any hard feelings you are harboring. Give yourself a great gift and release them.

Heavenly Father, help me move forward and let go of my hard feelings. Heal my wounded spirit.

Spur-of-the-Moment Prayers

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

As you know, God is always with you, not just at a planned prayer time, but anytime and every time you need Him. You can pray out of the depths of your soul, thank Him for the simple pleasures, or simply say, “I know You’re here. I know You’re with me.”

Lord, I thank You for the peace of Your presence, the daily guidance and moments like this where I recognize all You mean to me.

Let There Be Light

So let us put aside the deeds of darkness and put on the armor of light.—Romans 13:12 (NIV)

This time of year we begin to notice the change of season, the change in light. One of the best ways to counteract the darkness is to pick up your Bible. Take His Word into your heart and ask Him to reveal Himself to you.

Heavenly Father, You are the Source of wisdom and light. Your Word is a lamp for my feet.

The Seven ‘I Am’ Statements

I am the light of the world.—John 8:12, 9:5 (NLT)

Jesus made seven “I am” statements in the Gospel of John: I am the bread of life, I am the light of the world, I am the gate for the sheep, I am the good shepherd, I am the resurrection and the life, I am the way and the truth and the life, and I am the vine. With these declarations, Jesus went to great lengths to clarify His mission and to help the people understand that He is the Messiah. He is the Light in the darkness.

Lord Jesus, You are the resurrection and the life. You are the truth and the Light.

Maker of Great Endings

Return to your house and describe what great things God has done for you.—Luke 8:39 (NASB)

Some of life’s worst experiences serve as our greatest lessons. Through our struggles, we learn to trust, to have faith and to recognize God’s touch in our lives. Every Christian has a faith story—that “Aha!” moment when they first experienced God’s divine love. When we share how our faith has helped us through tough times, we share His love and offer comfort to those who need a boost of hope.

Maker of Miracles and Great Endings, may my testimony be a beacon of light to someone in the darkness.

Don’t Focus on Fleeting Things

Spend your energy seeking the eternal life that the Son of Man can give you. For God the Father has given me the seal of His approval.—John 6:27

Jesus tells us not to worry about things that won’t last, but to focus our energy and concentrate on what is truly important, like living a life of faith. When we turn our eyes away from temporary things like money or fame, we open our hearts to the spiritual sustenance Jesus offers.

Heavenly Father, You fulfill all my needs—You are the Bread of Life!

Spiritual Security

And this is the will of him who sent me, that I shall lose none of all those he has given me, but raise them up at the last day.—John 6:39 (NIV)

Life inevitably has its share of ups and downs and unknowns. But when you trust in Jesus, and believe that He is attentively keeping watch and taking care of you, you develop a strong sense that no matter what is happening, everything will be okay. Your faith will calmly steer you through life’s storms.

Dear Lord, You are my Rock, my Savior, my Strength! Thank You for the peace of knowing that everything will be okay.

Glorious October

For everything God created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving.—1 Timothy 4:4 (NIV)

“I’m so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers,” wrote L.M. Montgomery in Anne of Green Gables. This time of year, evidence of God’s majesty surrounds us. The stunning fall foliage invites you to look around and take notice of the changing landscape. Be still in the moment and enjoy the beauty of God’s creation.

Lord, October is filled with beauty and blessings. May I never take the wonder of Your creation for granted.

Your Life’s Work

Look to the Lord and His strength; seek His face always.—1 Chronicles 16:11 (NIV)

God’s purpose for you is far greater than you can imagine, far greater than your own happiness or peace of mind. To discover your purpose, turn to His Word. Spend time deepening your faith. Each day, nurture those around you, find joy in everything you do and never forget how important your life’s work truly is.

Heavenly Father, on days when I lose sight of my purpose for being here, help me to remember I’m doing this for You.
