See God’s Goodness

Though an army besiege me, my heart will not fear; though war break out against me, even then I will be confident.—Psalm 27:3 (NIV)
In the above verse, when David faced hardship, instead of questioning or doubting God, he praised Him. When you are in a time of doubt, turn to David’s faith as a model—and declare that you will see goodness in the Lord.
Heavenly Father, I trust You. I know You will not reject or forsake me.

Stay on God’s Path

And he said to me, “This is the curse that is going out over the whole land; for according to what it says on one side, every thief will be banished, and according to what it says on the other, everyone who swears falsely will be banished.”—Zechariah 5:3 (NIV)
Strive to lead a life of integrity. Ask God to help you uphold His laws and remove any bad habits that are preventing you from living wholly in His grace. The closer you walk with God, the less likely you are to be tempted to stray off His path.
All-Powerful God, liberate me from temptation. Cleanse my heart!

Arguing with God

“How then can I dispute with him? How can I find words to argue with him?”—Job 9:14 (NIV)

Have you ever tried to argue with God only to realize the error of your thinking? God is never wrong. Yet, by openly disagreeing with Him, you often open a dialogue that will help you better understand His ways. Approach Him with honest prayer. Your most important action is to turn to Him.

Heavenly Father, I may not be happy with what is happening, but who am I to argue with You?

He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful.—John 15:2 (NIV)

You Are Stronger Than You Think

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

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.
