Stay inspired in the word.

Greetings,

Don’t you miss attending the weekly services when you can’t be at church? Something really wonderful happens when we gather to worship God corporately. Notice what King David said about being in the House of God:

Psalm 84:1-2 (NKJV) – “How lovely is Your tabernacle, O LORD of hosts! [2] My soul longs, yes, even faints for the courts of the LORD; My heart and my flesh cry out for the living God.”

A great devotional life consists of two things: (1) developing a personal relationship with God in your daily prayer time, and (2) time spent in corporate worship with other believers.

Things can happen in life that make it difficult for a Christian to assemble together with other believers every week. Sickness, job schedules and other things might make it impossible to be in the house of God. Hopefully with all that life is constantly throwing at us, we have learned to not intentionally schedule things that keep us from corporate worship. We are stronger when we place a higher priority on being in God’s house than other things. The value of corporate worship can never be over estimated.

Father, thank You for being with me, each and every day! Like David, I long for those times when I can come into Your House. I love to join with other believers as we worship You. You deserve my worship and praise!

Today, I’m worshiping with Tasha Cobbs Leonard and “One Place.”

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

What does it mean to abide in Christ? That’s an important question! One of the enormous benefits of abiding in Him, is the impact that it will have on our prayer lives. God promises to grant the requests of those who abide in Jesus.

John 15:7 (NKJV) – “If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you.”

However, just because we’re Christians,He hasn’t given us a blank check to ask for everything that our selfish hearts may desire. To abide in Christ means that our wants and desires should become to look like His. We must be devoted to putting those things first that matter the most to Him.

Dear Jesus, instill a desire in my heart for the things that matter most to You. Let me hunger for what You hunger for and I pray that Your desires will be accomplished in our world through me. Let me seek what You seek, love what You love, and hate what You hate. In Jesus Name. Amen!

Today, I’m worshiping with Jeremy Riddle and “Purify My Fire.”

It might sound like a strange commandment, but God has instructed us to love Him with all of our heart, soul, mind and strength. That might seem like an unusual thing for God to insist on us doing, but it means that we can actually “set” our hearts to love God.  However, Christ took  what is called the greatest commandment a step further by commanding us to ‘love one another.’

John 13:34 (NKJV) – “A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another.”

As true believers, we shouldn’t ever be indifferent or apathetic toward others. That’s true regardless of who they are, what they believe, their financial status, their education, or politics. Christians must grow beyond the petty differences that divide us and love others as Jesus loved us. And remember this: He loved us while we were still sinners!

Heavenly Father, teach me to love others the way that You love me. Would You place the same kind of love in my heart that You have for all mankind? Help me learn to love the way You love!

Today, I’m worshiping with Bebe Winans and “I Fell in Love with God.”

Greetings,

What are the most important things in life? Are you seeking fame, finances, long life, or relationships? Jesus said that if we would seek first the Kingdom of God, all the other things we seek, He would supply. To truly seek His Kingdom, we must first seek Jesus Christ, the King of the Kingdom!

Psalm 37:4 (NKJV) – “Delight yourself also in the LORD, And He shall give you the desires of your heart.”

Lord Jesus, I want You to be my greatest treasure and the joy of my life. I desire to pursue You with my whole heart. Create in me a desire for even more of You. Lord, help me make You the central focus of my life.

Today, I’m worshiping with Israel Houghton and “More and More.”

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