Stay inspired in the word.

Greetings,

Have you ever wanted God to guide andshow you the correct path to take when making an important and consequential decision? Life is filled with many options and choices. It’s easy to take the wrong path. That can keep us from moving forward in the right direction. But notice what God has promised to those who seek His will:

Isaiah 42:16 (NKJV) – “I will bring the blind by a way they did not know; I will lead them in paths they have not known. I will make darkness light before them, And crooked places straight. These things I will do for them, And not forsake them.”

Today, I pray for Your guidance and leadership in every area of my life. I know that I will prosper when I take the path You have chosen for me. Lead me in the same way You led Israel, by making Your will known to me. Israel knew which direction to travel because You led them with a cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night. The way was obvious. Make Your path for my life clear and certain, as You guide my steps in the decisions I will make, in Jesus Name!

Today, I’m worshiping with Bethel and “Touch of Heaven.” 

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

Greetings,

God has a way of letting us come from behind to win in the last minutes of the game. Sometimes the enemy forgets this and rejoices too soon. It’s much like the last few seconds of the Super Bowl and your team is trailing, and the opposing team has already begun to celebrate. 

But then out of nowhere, a pass comes sailing across the field to a receiver who is waiting, all by himself. Touch down!!  There is no flag on the play as the score changes—and your team has won!

This has happened time and time again in scripture. Think about Joseph in Egypt, Israel at the Red Sea, David before Goliath, and Daniel in the lion’s den. Are you beginning to understand how committed God is to you—even when it looks like there’s no way that you can possibly make it? Because God has the final say, when you get knocked down, just get up again! When it seems so dark that the sun couldn’t possibly shine again, keep believing! 

Micah 7:8 (NKJV) – “Do not rejoiceover me, my enemy; When I fall, I will arise; When I sit in darkness, The LORD will be a light to me.”

Father, today I thank You for giving me the assurance that even when I stumble and fall, You will help me back to my feet again. I realize that I’m not perfect, but You are; I’m also weak, while You are strong. So I declare today that by Your grace I will recover from whatever comes my way. Because of Your commitment to me, I’m going to make it. Thank You, Lord!

Today, I’m worshiping with Paul McClureand “Reign Above It All.”

Greetings,

People are searching for deeper and more intimate worship. We were made to worship God and to behold His glory. This type of worship also precedes transformation. Intimacy in worship should become the earnest, sincere desire of every believer.

One of the best ways to enter into God’s Presence is not to speak or sing about Him, but rather directly to Him. David said that we should enter into His gates with thanksgiving, which is offering gratitude and thanks directly tothe Lord. Instead of merely saying, “I’m grateful for what He has done for me,”why not begin to recall and name those blessings and offer God thanks for them?  

We should be able to handle that pretty well, but what comes next? Have you ever tried singing directly to the Lord? 

Psalm 96:1 (NKJV) – “Oh, sing to the LORD a new song! Sing to the LORD, all the earth.”

The psalmist didn’t mean singing about God, but rather singing to Him. At times, we can stumble in our thanksgiving because our vocabulary might be limited as we attempt to express our love and emotions to God. Singing words that others have written can be a powerful way to express our own feelings, if we sing them to God rather than just merely joining in during a “congregational” song service. Try it the next time you’re in church, and especially in your personal devotions. Sing to the Lord!

Father, I want to see Your glory. My desire is to worship You from the depths of my heart in intimate and sincere worship. I want to give You the glory You deserve. You are worthy of the deepest and most heartfelt adoration that I can offer. You are worthy!

Today, I’m worshiping with Reggie Royaland Judah in a worship medley.

Greetings, 

Has God ever done the impossible, and surprised you with an unexpected blessing in an unusual way or place? What about through someone you weren’t expecting Him to use?

Isaiah 41:17-18 (NKJV) - "The poor and needy seek water, but there is none, Their tongues fail for thirst. I, the LORD, will hear them; I, the God of Israel, will not forsake them. [18] I will open rivers in desolate heights, And fountains in the midst of the valleys; Iwill make the wilderness a pool of water, And the dry land springs of water.”

In this text, God was referring to the arid desert wilderness Israel passed through on their way to the Promise Land. But He promised to turn it into a pool of water and the dry land into springs of flowing water. That’s something you would never expect to see in this desert region, but God did it! He always keeps His Word.

Father, I thank You for unexpected favor and for blessings in unusual places and circumstances. Thank You for things that I never dreamed would ever come my way that are headed in my direction because of Your goodness to me. You are such a GOOD GOD!

Today, I’m worshiping with Christ Fellowship and “You Are Here.” 

We love you and are praying for you. BeINSPIRED!
