Genesis 12:1

When it comes to life advice I’ve always told my son, “People who never color outside the lines, lead a pretty boring life.” As is His way, sometimes God hands us the crayons and invites us to color outside the lines of our comfort box. Just like He did with Abraham. Heeding God’s call, Abraham left everything he knew to journey into the unknown. He accepted God’s invitation to embrace a new beginning, one that required unwavering trust and obedience. God’s call to Abraham reminds us that new beginnings often happen when we are willing to trust in His plans and obediently follow His lead. Especially when the path ahead is uncertain. When we trust God and step out of our comfort zone, we embark on a journey where fear transforms into faith, doubts into discoveries, and limitations into limitless possibilities. It’s a path of surrender and grace, where God unfolds His plans in ways that surpass our imagination, turning the ordinary into extraordinary.

2 Timothy 3:16

 Many are the ways and forms in which God sends us help, and one of the most powerful is His Word. And what a blessing is the Bible. No wonder it’s the best selling book of all time! For it contains the history of creation, the Good News of Jesus Christ, and the wonderful promises of God. Beyond that the Bible is also a blueprint for life, giving us valuable advice and practical applications for any and all situations. And when we follow it’s wisdom we can’t go wrong. For far from being a book written by man, every word is divinely inspired by God Himself. And it’s benefits include life teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness. If we want to deepen our faith and relationship with the Lord, spend time in His Word. Because not only will it help us live according to God’s will, it helps us understand God’s plan for our lives.

Psalm 81:13

We all know the truth that hindsight is 20/20. Because there isn’t a single person who hasn’t looked back at past mistakes and uttered the words, “If only”. Regret is a powerful emotion. One that keeps us in bondage and stuck in the past. That’s why our Heavenly Father cries out, “Oh that My people would listen to Me!” (vs. 13) As Christian’s our greatest goal is to walk hand in hand with God. To have a close, personal, relationship with the One who knows us best. But to walk with God, we have to listen to God. Many are the ways in which God speaks. One of the greatest ways God speaks is through His Word. Other times God speaks to us through teachers or fellow believers. We even hear from God through worship. Many are the ways in which God speaks. Which is why it’s so important to listen for and obey His voice. Israel learned the hard way the pain of regret. And from her mistakes, can we save ourselves the same pain.

August 13th – Romans 12:12

Romans 12:12 

I absolutely love the book of Romans. It contains much wisdom from the apostle Paul for our daily walk with Jesus. And some of his best advice is the way to handle adversity that comes our way. Rejoice in hope, be patient in trials, and always pray. We can rejoice knowing that whatever problems we face, God has already won the battle and given us victory. And the hope we place in Him, results in much needed rest and peace for our troubled souls. (Ps. 62.5) Endurance and patience in all things, especially the bad, keeps us from giving up and giving in before we see the light God promises at the end of the tunnel. And being constant in prayer keeps our mind focused not on the problem, but the problem solver. For prayer is one of our greatest weapons against the schemes of the Enemy. It is our lifeline to God. And we know that each prayer is carried by our great Intercessor, Jesus Christ, who lays them at God’s throne of grace, and sees everyone answered!

May 13th – Job 22:21

Job 22:21

When Job was in the middle of his suffering, his friend Eliphaz tried to give him some sage advice. “Repent and return to the Lord.” However in this case, sin wasn’t the cause of Job’s problems. Yet even though Eliphaz’s words of wisdom didn’t apply to Job, they are great advice for us. When we have sinned against God and strayed off His path, broken fellowship results. But when we come to Him in confession and repentance, our hearts can once again find peace and joy. And by remaining in the Lord, establishing His Word in our hearts, and walking in obedience, we can experience the eternal goodness of Jesus.
