God’s Perfect Love

Jesus replied: “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.”—Matthew 22:37 (NIV)

Loving God is a process that begins by consistently spending time with Him. As you grow your relationship with Him, you become open to His ways and your priorities fall into place. Most importantly, you show your love for Him by sharing His love with others.

Dear Lord, I long to love You with every fiber of my being.

Mind Set on God

I keep my eyes always on the Lord. With him at my right hand, I will not be shaken.—Psalm 16:8 (NIV)

Our minds frame our perspective and shape every experience. When you keep the Lord in your mind, you are anchored to the truth and power of His Word. You avoid thinking negatively and worrying about what-if scenarios. Instead, you can rest soundly knowing He is beside you, helping you along the way.

Heavenly Father, keep my heart open and my mind centered on You, every moment of every day.

Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with God.”—Mark 10:27 (NIV)

Sometimes obstacles seem so large that you might feel defeated, but God promises that because of Him, you have the power of His strength. With Him by your side, you can triumph over even the toughest problems.

Almighty God, I know that alone I am weak, but with You I have the strength to face even the largest mountains.

Spiritual Fitness

My child, pay attention to what I say. Listen carefully to my words. Don’t lose sight of them. Let them penetrate deep into your heart, for they bring life to those who find them, and healing to their whole body.—Proverbs 4:20-22 (NLT)

Keep your faith in check. Make sure that you pray every day and not just when crisis strikes. Develop a deep connection with God. Share your fears and worries and ask for help with solutions before problems spiral out of control.

Heavenly Father, I don’t know what the future holds, but I know You hold the future.

Realize the Power

Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”—Mark 9:23 (NKJV)

Dr. Norman Vincent Peale said, “Realize the power that is within you, and you will no longer be the victim of a depressed spirit. And what is this inner power? Simply the God-given ability to believe.” The more you believe the better you will be able to master life’s challenges.

Father God, I believe that all things are possible because of You.

The Perfect Ending

“Shout aloud and sing for joy, people of Zion, for great is the Holy One of Israel among you.”—Isaiah 12:6 (NIV)

End your evenings with prayers of gratitude. Right before you go to bed, instead of rehashing the day or worrying about tomorrow, thank God for your blessings. List everything that makes you happy, from the comfort of your bed, to the loved ones that make your life special.

Loving Father, You are my joy! Thank You for the countless ways you bless me.

When Bad Things Happen

For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.—2 Corinthians 4:17 (NIV)

At some point in life, something will happen that is so distressing that it leads you to ask God, “Why did this terrible thing happen?” You might even question your faith or His goodness. In this verse the Apostle Paul reminds us that our pain won’t last forever. God is good.

Heavenly Father, I know that my pain is temporary. Your glory is eternal.

Listen to Jesus

You will keep in perfect peace, those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you.—Isaiah 26:3 (NIV)

An important part of prayer is listening. Spend some of your prayer time talking and focusing on your problems, but then shift your worry to being calm and quiet so that you can hear His reassurance. Know that He is with you.

Lord, keep my mind focused on You.

Perfect Timing

The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.—John 1:5 (NIV)

Daylight Savings Time ends today in most areas of the United States. As you change the clocks back, take a moment and reflect on the past year. Remember the many blessings God has given you. Visualize sunlight shining on the glorious moments of your past and see it extending its brilliant rays of light ahead into the future.

Gracious God, Thank You for Your Light; it is filled with the hope of glorious beginnings.

Escape Plan

No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it.—1 Corinthians 10:13 (NKJV)

God gives us an escape plan from temptation. When you are tempted to do something that you know isn’t right, turn to Him for help. With the power of the Holy Spirit you will have the strength to stand firm.

Heavenly Father, give me the strength to walk away from temptations—and instead walk toward You.
