TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:
"...I came that they may have life and have it abundantly."
John 10:10
TODAY'S WORD:
Brothers and sisters I ask you today Friday the 13th 2012 are you living the abundant life Jesus came to give? I'm not talking about living in the fanciest the house, wearing designer clothes or driving the newest car. No, His promise of abundant life goes way beyond material things that this world offers. "Abundant life" means "life to the full." That means no matter what is going on around you, you can partake of the full blessings of God. You can have peace in the midst of a storm. You can have joy when things are uncertain. You can have hope when circumstances seem hopeless.
As believers, a lot of times it's easy to look at that verse and think, "God is going to give me abundant life someday." But the truth is that God wants you to have abundant life TODAY! Pause from whatever you are doing and think about that for a moment our God put it on my heart and mind to share these special and meaningful words just for you to read at this time and in this place.
Don't waste another second living in mediocrity or settling for less than God's best. Receive His blessings by faith today. Receive His hope, joy, strength and favor. Declare that you are living the abundant life today and every day!
OUR PRAYER FOR TODAY:
"Father, thank You for sending Your Son, Jesus so that I can have eternal life. I know that You want the best for me. Help me to keep my heart and mind focused on You so that I can walk in Your ways all the days of my life in Jesus' name. Amen."
Your brother in Christ,
