Greetings,
Even though Israel had sinned and moved out from the protection of God’s grace and favor, allowing enemies to attack them, God grieves when His children suffer. Even after they walked away, each time that His people returned to Him, God always accepted them back. Aren’t you glad that if we return to Him after we’ve messed up, God will still hear our cry for help?
God also promised to deliver His people and allow them to once again “possess their possessions.” In other words, when they returned to God, He promised to restore what they had lost because of their sinful actions. Listen to Obadiah’s message of hope:
Obadiah 1:17 (NKJV) - "But on Mount Zion there shall be deliverance, And there shall be holiness; The house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.”
Thank You, Lord, for loving and caring for Your people. Even though we often mess up and do wrong, I’m grateful that You quickly accept our sincere prayers of repentance. You alone can restore what the enemy has stolen from us. I thank You for loving us so much!
Today, I’m worshiping with Kurt Carr and “For Every Mountain.”
We love you and are praying for you. Be INSPIRED!

Greetings,
How well do You know God? Have you ever really considered what type of person He is? Have you thought about His character, what He represents, what He stands for, and His true nature?
Years ago, Pilate pondered these same thoughts:
John 18:38 (NKJV) – “What is truth?" And when he had said this, he went out again to the Jews, and said to them, "I find no fault in Him at all.”
The answers to our questions about God can be found in Word. To know Him better, there is no substitute for reading His Word. What people “feel” about God is often not even accurate. Human feelings are notoriously unreliable! What people think about God isn’t sufficient. That’s because His thoughts are as high above our thoughts as the heavens are above the earth.
A great way to learn more about God is to study His Word daily. Try joining a program that will help you read through the Bible in a year. Another way to better understand Him is to pray the Psalms each day. You’ll soon begin to sense the Holy Spirit Spirit drawing so much closer. When you truly know Him, you’ll have to agree with Pilate, “I find no fault in Jesus.”
Father, thank You for the truth that I find in Your Word. It is where I learn about You. Help me to know You better and to become more like You. I long to know You more. What I have already learned about You whets my thirst and causes me to seek to know more. You are too wonderful for words. You are the best thing that has ever happened to me.

Greetings,
The normal cycle of day and night is caused by our world revolving around the sun. When we see the sun’s first rays of light in the east, we know that a new day is dawning. When the sun goes down in the west, darkness is sure to follow. But a new day of increased spirituality is coming to earth and spiritually that cycle will be changed.
Zechariah 14:7 (NKJV) – “It shall be one day which is known to the LORD - Neither day nor night. But at evening time it shall happen that it will be light.”
Light speaks of revelation. A new day began for mankind with the rising of the “Son” about 2,000 years ago. In the last days, instead of that time ending in darkness, God has promised, there will be glorious light and revelation in the evening, or last days. Darkness will not prevail! Light will break forth. Revelation is coming to this earth.
We need more light. Every believer needs a fresh understanding of God’s power and authority. We need the assurance that God’s Word provides. That way when trouble comes, we can know in advance how things are going to end. When one chapter of our life closes, we are confident that God has already written another one to take its place.
Today, I’m worshiping with JJ Hairston and “Miracle Worker.”

Greetings,
We all want the best for our children. Did you know that the prosperity of your descendants is assured when you serve Him? Don’t worry about your kids. Where they are concerned, God promises to be with and bless them. He will create a thirst for God within their hearts—and then become the One who satisfies that thirst.
Isaiah 44:3 (NKJV) – “For I will pour water on him who is thirsty, And floods on the dry ground; I will pour My Spirit on your descendants, And My blessing on your offspring.”
Did you hear that? He will pour His blessing upon our offspring. What a promise! As parents, what is our greatest desire? Isn’t it to pass on our values to our children and see them become successful, fulfilled, and blessed? We want them to serve God, and find Him to be as amazing as He has been to us. To assist us in this task, the role of God’s Word is powerful beyond words. If we will faithfully teach our children the ways and principles of God’s Word, their futures will exceed our highest expectations and dreams.
Dear Father, I trust You and Your awesome commitment to help me raise my family. Inspire my children to be lovers of God and passionate about pursuing You, for they are also
Your children! Be as real to them as You have been to me. Let them know You. Cause them to serve and worship You. Use their lives to bring glory and honor to Your great Name.
Today, I’m worshiping with Phil Driscoll and “Christ Remains.”
