Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!—2 Corinthians 5:17 (NIV)

Press Onward to the Finish

Do not neglect your gift…—1 Timothy 4:14 (NIV)

Is there something that God has been calling you to do? Sometimes our dreams are delayed but not denied. Look deep in your heart to see if there is an unfulfilled goal you have given up on—despite gentle nudges from above. Press onward. He will help you develop your gifts.

Gracious God, thank You for instilling desires in me that sometimes seem out of reach. These goals help me not only hone my life’s work, but also develop my spirit through perseverance and patience.

Take Your Trials in Stride

Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. After fasting forty days and forty nights, he was hungry.—Matt hew 4:1–2 (NIV)

Going through difficult trials is part of walking with the Lord. Jesus’ experience shows us that when God brings us to the wilderness, it’s for an important purpose—and it’s up to us to be strong and courageous, to rely on faith to see us through.

Heavenly Father, every difficult experience teaches me to have endurance, to be steadfast in my faith and to trust that You will lead me to better days.

Nudges from God

But Rehoboam rejected the advice the elders gave him and consulted the young men who had grown up with him and were serving him.—1 Kings 12:8 (NIV)

God gave us His Spirit to nudge us in ways we can’t always explain—a gut feeling, a stranger who says something that directly relates to your problem. When your faith is strong, it becomes easier to notice when the Spirit is leading you.

Lord God, thank You for the creative ways You touch my life and reassure me that I am loved and cared for.

Set Your Mind on Things Above

Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.—Colossians 3:1–2 (NIV)

Pleasing the Lord

On the contrary, we speak as those approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel. We are not trying to please people but God, who tests our hearts.—1 Thessalonians 2:4 (NIV)

The next time you have a big decision to make, instead of thinking about yourself or others, focus on pleasing God. Spend quiet time asking Him to guide you. Commit to living your life in a way that honors Him.

Almighty God, You are the center of my life—I trust You with my decisions.
