Stay inspired in the word.

Greetings,

Hope creates a stronghold the enemy cannot destroy. When we refuse to give up and choose to live every day in hope, Satan can’t overcome us. Hope makes us unshakeable and strong believers. It is our anchor of the soul, securely tied to God’s promises in the past and to the victories that will certainly come in the future! Christ is that hope.

Zechariah 9:12 (NKJV) – “Return to the stronghold, You prisoners of hope. Even today I declare That I will restore double to you.”

Child of God, don’t give up! God has promised that He will restore and then give you DOUBLE what the enemy has stolen from you! The thief might have taken it for the moment but he will have to return it. God wants to undo the damage Satan has caused in your life and restore all that he tried to steal from you.

Heavenly Father, thank You for a firm and sure hope that is founded upon Your Word. You have promised to stay right beside us until we celebrate victory! I stand in hope because of those promises.

Greetings,

Have you ever felt that you had just blown it big time? To make matters worse, who showed up immediately? No doubt the enemy came accusing you and declaring that your fellowship with God would never be the same again. Well, he is a liar! Read these words:

Micah 7:18-19 (NKJV) – “Who is a God like You, Pardoning iniquity And passing over the transgression of the remnant of His heritage? He does not retain His anger forever, Because He delights in mercy. [19] He will again have compassion on us, And will subdue our iniquities. You will cast all our sins Into the depths of the sea.”

The God who created us knows that we are human. He delights in showing us mercy and compassion when we fail. Our Savior loves to forgive us and cast ALL our sins into the depths of the sea of His forgiveness. If He loved us when we were sinners who were not even concerned about Him, why would He stop caring now that we are His dear children? Lean into God, rather than away from Him when your humanity shows through and you do something you wish you hadn’t.

Father, I thank You for having compassion on us with our flaws and weaknesses. You are a God of mercy and forgiveness. When we turn to You in repentance, You graciously forgive us. We praise you for allowing us to live without guilt or condemnation. We love You!

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.
