Stay inspired in the word.

Greetings,

As parents or grandparents, we pray for our children every day. Our desire is for them to go farther in life and accomplish much more than we ever have. We hope that others will respect and admire their character and their achievements. Did you know that God hears our prayers and has promised to make that happen?

Isaiah 61:9 (NKJV) – “Their descendants shall be known among the Gentiles, And their offspring among the people. All who see them shall acknowledge them, That they are the posterity whom the LORD has blessed."

Father, help my children and grandchildren to know and love You. Cause them to become men and women of God who pursue after You. Let their hearts be passionate toward You and love You with all of their heart. Allow others to see Your blessings and favor resting upon their lives because that changes everything. Cause them to be blessed. Protect and surround them with Your Angels.

Today, I am worshiping with Evergreen and “To Our God.”

We love you and are praying for you. Be INSPIRED!

Greetings,

In Psalm 143:6 (NKJV), David said: “I spread out my hands to You; My soul longs for You like a thirsty land. Selah.”

Have you ever been thirsty? I mean like bone dry thirsty? I’ve been in places where fresh water was very limited. Once while traveling in Africa where there was severe drought, we failed to carry enough drinking water. The heat pulled the moisture right out of you. Finally, we arrived at the place where we would stay that night. When they brought us something to drink, I don’t believe I’ve ever tasted anything so refreshing and satisfying!

There is also a thirst for spiritual things. David’s soul thirsted for the Living God. That kind of thirst means developing a continual longing in our hearts for more of Him. God is moving across our world and drawing our attention toward Him again. Let’s keep it there!

Father, help us refrain from becoming “full” of things that cannot satisfy. I want to thirst for You, the source of Living Waters. Thank You for saving and satisfying me so completely. Having tasted Your goodness, I want even more of You. My soul cries out. Fill me up and at the same time, cause me to thirst for even more.

Greetings,

We read In Joshua 3:2-3 (NKJV) – “So it was, after three days, that the officers went through the camp; [3] and they commanded the people, saying, "When you see the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God, and the priests, the Levites, bearing it, then you shall set out from your place and GO AFTER IT.”

In this life, we pursue many things: dreams, careers, health, promotions, finances, pleasure, and even the woman or man we believe God has chosen for us. Once we set our sights on these things, we refuse to let them go. That’s a good thing, because to find, you must first begin to seek!

Those are natural things, but what about pursuing God too? He wants us to pursue Him. We speak of His love being so relentless, that He chases after us, but a wise person will also pursue Him. Israel was instructed that when they saw the Ark of God, which was the earthly symbol of His Manifest Presence, they should “go after it!”

Father, teach us to be “God-chasers.” We want to pursue You with thirsty hearts until our souls have been quenched with Your living waters. Then let us become more thirsty still. We never want to stop chasing after You, because “Your lovingkindness is better than life!” Psalm 63:3 (NKJV).

Today, I’m worshiping with Big Daddy Weave and “I’m Overwhelmed.”

We love you and are praying for you. Be INSPIRED!

Greetings,

Have you remembered to thank God today for saving you? Do you know just how securely you’re kept in His grace? He holds you so safely that NOTHING can remove you from His hand. This is what Paul said:

Romans 8:37-39 (NKJV) – “Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. [38] For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, [39] nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

We can’t depend upon our own strength or determination can we? We stand because our feet have been firmly planted on the Rock of our salvation. Nothing can shake us when our trust is in Him, because nothing—and I mean NOTHING, can shake Him!

Lord, You are the Rock of my salvation. In Christ alone, I place my trust today. You hold me securely in Your strong hands. No matter what I experience in life, Your grace is there to help me and I am grateful. I love You! Thank You for saving me.

Today, I’m worshiping with Benjamin Dube and “Saved.”

We love you and are praying for you. Be INSPIRED!
