Experience True Joy

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.—Romans 15:13 (NIV)
19th Century Scottish minister Robert Murray M’Cheyne wrote, “The truest, purest joy flows from the discovery of Jesus Christ. He is the hidden treasure that gives such joy to the finder.” Look for opportunities to connect with Jesus and find joy. Reflect on His love. Believe that His mighty power is at work in your life.
Dear Lord, today, may Your joy flow through me.

Faith Opens the Door

The Lord restored his fortunes. In fact, the Lord gave him twice as much as before!—Job 42:10 (NLT)
Faith opens the door for God’s restoration and healing. When life takes a complicated turn and you feel alone, look to Job. Despite devastating hardship, Job trusted God’s will for his life. Surrender your desire to control everything, and pray for comfort and peace.
Lord, help me remember that You’re always working in my life. Thank You for filling my future with hope.

Love Your Life

Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.—Proverbs 4:23 (NIV)
Every day, find time to silence your mind and affirm that God is filling you with strength and energy. Your thoughts and attitudes lead to your actions, so keeping your heart and mind in tune with Him is essential. Take in a deep breath and feel His love and power fill your spirit.
Loving Father, empower me with Your Holy Spirit so that I can be a vessel for Your good works.

Stretch Beyond Your Limited Thinking

“I have called you by name; you are mine.”—Isaiah 43:1 (NLT)
Turn to this Scripture when you feel overwhelmed. Know that He is with you. He knows your name. Ask Him to help you surrender your feelings of inadequacy and let go of limiting ideas you have. Own your Godgiven abilities and believe you can do anything He calls you to do.
Dear Lord, thank You for this beautiful feeling of purpose and belonging that You bring to my life.

Keep on the Right Path

“Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.”—Matthew 7:13–14 (NIV)
When you ask God for help, you cultivate a deeper trust in Him. Abide by His word and avoid the broad road of least resistance; keep on the challenging and rewarding path that leads to glory and everlasting life. The Lord gives generously when you ask for things that are good and in accordance with His will.
Dear Lord, You lift me up and empower me with Your love. I am confident and humble, ready to follow You.

Pray Your Worries Away

“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes?”—Matthew 6:25 (NIV)
Jesus teaches that God gave you the gift of life, and He will supply your needs. When you are worried about the future, ask for His help to resolve your concerns. Place your needs before Him, knowing that He will guide you to solutions. Faithfully rely on Your Heavenly Father to take care of you.
Dear Lord, You are my provider. Help me replace my worry with faith and truly leave my concerns in Your hands.

Put Your Hand to the Plow

Jesus said to him, “No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for the kingdom of God.”—Luke 9:62 (ESV)
Following Jesus requires focus. As the above verse declares, you can’t plow a field looking behind you, nor can you live a faith-filled life distracted by the past. Ask Jesus to help you keep your eyes fixed on Him. And don’t look back!
Lord, when distractions and to-do lists pull me off the path, guide me back to You.

The Power of Patience

Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.—Romans 12:12 (NIV)
Christian pastor A. W. Tozer brilliantly wrote, “Problems patiently endured will work for our spiritual perfecting. They harm us only when we resist them or endure them unwillingly.” Patience is a fruit of the Spirit, yet waiting periods can sometimes chip away at your trust. Recognize that God is in control even when things don’t seem to go your way. He will give you the desires of your heart in His time.
Lord, help me trust Your time and face my problems with patience and grace.

Walk in His Great Light

“The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light. For those who lived in a land of deep shadows—light! sunbursts of light!”—Isaiah 9:2 (MSG)
God is the bright pathway to fulfilling your deepest longings and His Word will fill your heart with His light. Have faith that even when it feels like you are walking in the dark, prayer and Scripture will show you the way forward. In turn, your faith-guided journey can help others find their own way out of the darkness.
Heavenly Father, help me shine Your glorious light on those around me.

Overcome Mountainous Obstacles

He replied, “If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea,’ and it will obey you.”—Luke 17:6 (NIV)
Jesus tells you that a fragment of faith is all you need to do the impossible. No matter how strong your faith is right now, it is enough. Even the smallest seed of trust in God can overcome mountainous obstacles.
Lord, help me put this truth into action and firmly believe with all my heart that anything is possible.

Feeding on Ashes

Are you “feeding on ashes” rather than nourishing yourself with the Word of God? Often our hearts and minds mislead us as we attempt to replace our faith in God with something else. Looking for contentment or satisfaction anywhere else is a lie.
Almighty God, You are my God, a God of grace and truth, and I serve You.

The Path to Victory

I pondered the direction of my life, and I turned to follow your laws. I will hurry, without delay, to obey your commands.—Psalm 119:59–60 (NLT)
