Daily Devotional – 11/30/16

If you own an iPhone, you need to have Max Lucado’s Daily Devotional podcast as it is the perfect way to start the morning.  With the podcast being only 1 min, it is short enough that you can fit it in with the hectic morning schedule and at the same time be filled with wonderful insight and encouragement from a Christian perspective on life.

In today’s devotional, Lucado focuses on “today’s problem not necessarily being tomorrow problem”.  He goes on to talk about not setting yourself up for failure.  Just because your dad was a drunk does not mean you will be one as well!  Lucado reminds us to “…stand against the wiles of the Devil” (Ephesians 6:11).  The complete verse reads as such in the bible.

Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes.

Have a blessed morning everyone.  May God show his favor in all that you do. -PJSLB

Daily Devotional for Feb 3, 2016

I have been coming across some excellent quotes from my morning devotionals.The first one comes from Joyce Meyers – Hearing from God Each Morning
“Don’t make serious decisions without waiting to make sure true peace abides within you.”
There was a time when I was working out and 3 miles into my run, I had a “vision” on what my future should be like. I let my mind and imagination take me to places that were exciting. I was so excited and could not wait for all this this to come to fruition. By the next day as I was getting ready for my day, I start to really evaluate all that I was thinking yesterday. It was only then that I realized that everything I was “excited” for would have had a negative affect on all the wonderful things I have already done in my life (personal and professional). I learned a valuable lesson that day. Take your time and examine your heart and mind to its deepest part to know if what you are thinking/feeling is coming from the lord. Talk to Him…ask HIM…
The Second quote comes from podcast on Jan 7 from Rick Warren.
Worry, lust, revenge is a misuse of your imagination
We cannot imagine how great he is, how much he loves you, cannot imagine what heaven is like. Think about things that are pure, love and admirable.
This really complements the first quote. The Lord wants us to use our imagination…we just have to use it in the right way.
Have a good day…God Bless and may the Lord use us all to create change in this world.
