As we move about on this Friday, may we use it as God intended us to. If you’re wondering what that is, you need Jesus in your life because there are some of us reading this that know that we are to be about Kingdom building. Yesterday we were thankful, let’s prove it moving forward people. It starts with the pure word of God; who’s with me?
Today’s Prayer
Father, You are the King of glory, strong and mighty, Lord Almighty. I lift up my head and turn my face toward heaven, where You sit upon the throne. I lift my hands and my voice in praise to You. I thank You for giving me clean hands and a pure heart. I thank You for Your blessing. The earth is Yours, and everything in it, and all who live in it, for You founded it upon the seas and established it upon the waters. I worship You and welcome Your glorious reign. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Let’s eat.
The Word of GOD
In its Various Actions
It Discerns the Secrets of the Heart
Hebrews 4:12
For whatever God says to us is full of living power: it is sharper than the sharpest dagger, cutting swift and deep into our innermost thoughts and desires with all their parts, exposing us for what we really are.
It Describes the State of the World
1 John 2:14-16
And so I say to you fathers who know the eternal God, and to you young men who are strong, with God’s Word in your hearts, and have won your struggle against Satan: Stop loving this evil world and all that it offers you, for when you love these things you show that you do not really love God; for all these worldly things, these evil desires–the craze for sex, the ambition to buy everything that appeals to you, and the pride that comes from wealth and importance–these are not from God. They are from this evil world itself.
It Unfolds the Mystery of the Church
Romans 16:25
I commit you to God, who is able to make you strong and steady in the Lord, just as the Gospel says, and just as I have told you. This is God’s plan of salvation for you Gentiles, kept secret from the beginning of time. But now as the prophets foretold and as God commands, this message is being preached everywhere, so that people all around the world will have faith in Christ and obey him. To God, who alone is wise, be the glory forever through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. Sincerely, Paul
It Enlightens the Path of the Saint
Psalms 119:105
Your words are a flashlight to light the path ahead of me, and keep me from stumbling.
It Reveals the Prophetic Future
2 Peter 1:19
So we have seen and proved that what the prophets said came true. You will do well to pay close attention to everything they have written, for, like lights shining into dark corners, their words help us to understand many things that otherwise would be dark and difficult. But when you consider the wonderful truth of the prophets’ words, then the light will dawn in your souls and Christ the Morning Star will shine in your hearts.
Quote of the Day
The Lord is my shepherd,” is on Sunday, is on Monday, and is through every day of the week; is in January, is in December, and every month of the year; is at home, and is in China; is in peace, and, is in war; in abundance, and in penury.
