TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:
"Let God arise, let His enemies be scattered..."
Psalm 68:1
TODAY'S WORD:
Let me ask you today, what are you letting arise in your life? In other words, what are you focusing your words, energy and thoughts on? You might say, "Oh, Patrick, it's just so hard right now. I've lost some money." "My health doesn't look good." "Somebody walked out on me, my friends have all but forsaken me." No, you're focusing on the wrong things. You're letting defeat, discouragement and self-pity rise up. Why don't you turn that around and say, "God is still in control. Somebody may have walked out on me, but I know God is going to bring me somebody better." "I may be hurting right now, but I know God is the restorer of my soul." "I may have lost money in the stock market, or be in some other kind of financial demand, or a relationship that feels like it is coming up short in all ways possible but I'm not worried. I know God is my provider. He is supplying all of my needs. He is fighting my battles and mending all of my fences."
Selah people' and friends when you start giving God glory and letting Him arise in your life, you can't stay defeated. Your enemies will be scattered! They'll tremble at your words of faith. Begin right now by declaring God's goodness in your life and let Him arise so that you can move forward in the victory He has for you.
OUR PRAYER FOR TODAY:
"Father in heaven, I repent right now for allowing any negative, self-defeating thoughts or attitudes rise up in my life. You alone are my God, and I put my trust in You. I bless You today and always and choose to look for the good things You have for me. In Jesus' Name. Amen."
Your Brother In Christ,
Patrick
