TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:
"For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord"
Romans 8:38–39
TODAY'S WORD:
God loves you so much today! He wants you to know and experience His love. When you experience something, it becomes real to you. You "own" it, so to speak. For example, let's say you've never eaten chocolate before. Someone else can describe it to you. They can tell you all about the taste and texture, but until you take a bite of it, it won't really mean anything personal to you.
In the same way, you can hear all about God's love and how wonderful He is, but it's not until you experience it first hand and allow His love to sink down into your heart that something happens on the inside of you. His love changes you. It builds confidence and strength in you. Have you experienced this love? Are you open to allow Him to move in your life today?
Selah people' and friends God's love empowers you to overcome temptation and to stand strong no matter what difficulty you may be facing today or in the future. I can remember in sports when I laid it all on the line and still came up short I would feel the weight of my team, friends, family and school all on my shoulders as if I let them down. Coaches would encourage, reassure and persuade you to understand when you give your all it truly is enough. Be it in victory or defeat. It is all about your heart being in what you do and knowing that you are 100% committed.I remind each of you today that when you open your heart and receive God's love, you will be fully persuaded that nothing can separate you from Him! Won't you join me and open yourself 100% to him today.
OUR PRAYER FOR TODAY:
"Father in heaven, I open my heart to You today. Fill me with Your love so that I can know You more. I desire to experience You in every part of my being. I surrender every area of my life to You. Have Your way in me. In Jesus' Name. Amen."
In Christ service,
