Confidently Move Forward

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.—Hebrews 13:8 (NIV)
Although life is not always fair, and there are times that you feel your prayers are not being answered, you can be assured that He is with you, strengthening your faith. Trust God, especially when your faith waivers so that You can confidently move forward.
Lord, You are my rock, my stronghold and solid foundation. Because of You, I will not be shaken by my circumstances.

Make Your Life Count

Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.—John 15:13 (NIV)
Every moment wasted on anxiety, fear, anger or jealousy is a moment lost. When you dedicate your life to the Lord and focus on His many lessons, you develop an inner peace that enables you to help others. Make your life count.
Lord God, I am ready to let go of negative emotions that hold me back so that I can move ahead and see every moment as a glorious gift.

Is That You, God?

Gideon replied, “If now I have found favor in your eyes, give me a sign that it is really you talking to me.”—Judges 6:17 (NIV)
At one time or another, almost everyone asks God for a sign or a message of reassurance. To hear God’s voice, continue to pray and read His word. Scripture speaks to your heart and validates that He is always with you.
Heavenly Father, I know that it’s really You talking to me.

What It Means to Ask

Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.—Matthew 7:7 (NIV)
This verse is often misunderstood to mean that whatever you ask for in prayer, God will deliver. The true meaning is that when you surrender your will for God’s, your prayers will be fulfilled in His chosen way. Trust that God always gives what you need, and the door will be opened for you.
Gracious Father, help me trust that where You guide, You provide. I am ready to put Your understanding over my wants and needs.

Lord, with You by my side, every day is a fresh start, a new opportunity to love and grow.

Turn Resentment into Prayer

Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.—James 5:16 (NIV)
