Word for the day: “Things are going to get better.”
God morning, Leaders,
One of my favorite scriptures in the Book of Psalms says Psalm 27: 1-4 (NKJV): The Lord is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; Of whom shall I be afraid? 2 When the wicked came against me, to eat[a] up my flesh, my enemies and foes, they stumbled and fell. 3 Though an army may encamp against me, my heart shall not fear; Though war may rise against me, In this, I will be confident. 4 One thing I have desired of the Lord, that will I seek: That I may dwell in the house of the Lord All the days of my life, to behold the [b]beauty of the Lord, and to inquire in His temple.
Today, I am grateful for all God is doing in my life—not only mine but yours as well. I consider your partnership and daily messages, which you, the subscribers, write to me daily with encouragement and how the Lord is moving in your lives. We really have so much to thank the Lord for bringing us out of darkness and into the marvelous light (I Peter 2:9).
I am persuaded and the Bible is my primary source of hope in the world today, "For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;"(II Corinthians 4:16-18). You are going to come out of this stronger, wiser, and better than you could have ever imagined when God is at the center of your life.
I want to remind you that God has not forgotten you. God is with you, always, even to the end. It does not matter what you are facing right now, as today’s devotion above says, “The Lord is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; Of whom shall I be afraid?
I wanted to remind you today of these important virtues because God is the greatest power, we shall never be defeated.
POINT TO PONDER
I decree and declare over your life that “Things are going to get better.” Stay with God, and believe me, God will stay with you.
