Be Like God

He came to Jesus at night and said, “Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the signs you are doing if God were not with him.”—John 3:2 (NIV)

Spend time with God. The more you know Him and aspire to be like Him, the more you will be guided by His wisdom. No matter what you are going through, trust that He will help you persevere. God’s steadfast and faithful love will see you through every challenge.

All-Knowing God, grant me encouragement and strength. Help me hear Your guidance and obey Your Word.

Heal Hurtful Memories

But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.—1 Peter 2:9 (NIV)

Today, decide to heal a memory. Reflect on a time when you felt rejected. Take a deep breath and know that God loves you completely and accepts you just as you are right now. Feel the pain dissipate and thank Him for helping you move forward on a positive path for your life.

Lord, You heal the dark places of my past and lead me into Your wonderful light.

You Are Stronger Than You Think

“I am he, I am he who will sustain you.”—Isaiah 46:4 (NIV)

C.C. Scott wrote, “The human spirit is stronger than anything that can happen to it.” God has given you a resilient spirit. Because of your faith, you can learn from your mistakes and bounce back wiser, stronger and better. When fear and adversity strike, your spirit can rise to the occasion.

Dear Lord, You fill my spirit with courage and hope. You renew me with Your presence and help me grow each and every day.

Look Inward

Hypocrite! First remove the plank from your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.—Matthew 7:5 (NKJV)

It’s been said that many of the flaws you find in others are your own flaws reflected in them. When you are being judgmental of someone in your life, look to yourself. Ask God to show you the “plank in your eye” and to to help you focus on your own spiritual healing and growth.

Heavenly Father, help me be a better person. Show me the plank in my eye.

Live by His Word

God said to Moses, “I’m going to rain bread down from the skies for you. The people will go out and gather each day’s ration. I’m going to test them to see if they’ll live according to my Teaching or not.”—Exodus 16:4 (MSG)

God promises to provide all that you need. Your role is to follow His teaching and live by His Word. When you have doubt or are tempted to turn away from His guidance and wisdom, turn to this verse and pray. Have faith. Believe.

Dear Lord, help me be a steward of Your word. I want to live my best life with You by my side.

Angels Surround Us

When the angel of the Lord appeared to Gideon, he said, “The Lord is with you, mighty warrior.”—Judges 6:12 (NIV)

Throughout the Bible, God’s heavenly angels bring divine messages that help rescue someone in need. Angels continue to be around us, protecting and guiding God’s people. In Psalm 91:11 (NKJV), the psalmist assures us, “For He shall give His angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways.”

Lord, thank You for sending Your angels to watch over me.

Now Is the Time

These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full.—John 15:11 (ESV)

Do you find yourself thinking, I’ll be happy when… rather than taking a moment and filling your heart with joy right now? Because of your faith in the Lord, you do not have to wait for circumstances to change. Because of Him, your joy can begin right now.

Loving Father, because I trust in You, my heart is filled with joy.

Clear Your Conscience

How much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, purify our conscience from dead works to serve the living God.—Hebrews 9:14 (ESV)

Is your conscience troubling you over a deed, thought or action that causes you shame? Pray and open up to God. Instead of burying your wrongdoing, confess it and be free. Thank Him for His forgiveness and unending mercy.

Holy Lord, purify my conscience. Help me release my guilt over my transgressions.

God’s Spiritual House

You yourselves like living stones are being built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.—1 Peter 2:5 (ESV)

God is the Master Builder, and you are a living stone that is a piece of His foundation. Your role, according to Peter, is to declare the praises of His work and glorify Him in all that you do. Take that to heart: You are a living rock in God’s spiritual house.

Dear Lord, I am honored to be part of Your wondrous structure and I praise You for Your glorious work.

The Lord Is My Helper

But when the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, he will bear witness about me.—John 15:26 (ESV)

When you need a boost of energy or an answer to a problem, draw from the power of God, the omnipotent, all-knowing and all-powerful Helper who is always with you. Because of His help, there is no reason to be weary. Pray and ask Him to fill you with His Spirit.

Heavenly Father, may I experience Your power and love today.

Well-Lived, Well-Loved

He was thirty-two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem. And he departed with no one’s regret. They buried him in the city of David, but not in the tombs of the kings.—2 Chronicles 21:20 (ESV)

This verse is a cautionary tale—a bold message of how not to live—shown by King Jehoram’s wicked life. A purposeful journey is built on love and acts of service and is guided by faith.

Dear Lord, help me live my life guided by Your love. Help me prepare my heart so that I will follow You every step of the way.

Breathe Christ

All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.—2 Timothy 3:16–17 (NIV)

Breathe in God through prayer. Every day is a fresh start. Embrace the new. There is nothing to fear. God knows your past and is in control of your future. With Him in your life, you have all that you need. You are complete.

Father God, a wonderful, joyful, peaceful life awaits!
