Daily Devotion from Pastor Eric & Rita - Let God Arise

Let God Arise
Today's Devotional Reading:
Leviticus 4-6; Acts 14
February 7, 2011

By reading the scripture above each day you will read the Old Testament through in one year and the New Testament through twice in a year. This will change your life. Start Today!
TODAY'S SCRIPTURE
 
 

"but he never left himself without a witness. There were always his reminders, such as sending you rain and good crops and giving you food and joyful hearts." (Acts 14:17 NLT).


TODAY'S WORD
 
 
, let me ask you today, what are you letting arise in your life? In other words, what are you focusing your words, energy, and thoughts on? You might say, "Oh, Eric, it's just so hard right now. I lost a lot of money in the stock market." "My health doesn't look good." "Somebody walked out on me." No, you're focusing on the wrong things. You're letting defeat, discouragement, and self-pity rise up. Why don't you turn that around and say, "God is still in control. Somebody may have walked out on me, but I know God is going to bring me somebody better." "I may be hurting right now, but I know God is the restorer of my soul." "I may have lost money in the stock market, but I'm not worried. I know God is my provider. He is supplying all of my needs. He is fighting my battles.

When you start giving God glory and letting Him arise in your life, you can't stay defeated. Your enemies will be scattered! They'll tremble at your words of faith. Begin right now by declaring God's goodness in your life and let Him arise so that you can move forward in the victory He has for you.


A PRAYER FOR YOU TODAY
 

Father in heaven, I repent right now for allowing any negative, self-defeating thoughts or attitudes rise up in my life. You alone are my God, and I put my trust in You. I bless You today and always and choose to look for the good things You have for me. In Jesus´ Name. Amen.

We sure love you!
Eric & Rita
