Daily Devotion from Pastor Eric & Rita - Stand Firm

Stand Firm
Today's Devotional Reading:
1 Samuel 17; Psalm 9; Matthew 2

 

April 15, 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   

"I will thank you, Lord, with all my heart; I will tell of all the marvelous things you have done."  (Psalm 9:1 NLT).


TODAY'S WORD   
, are you standing firm against the enemy today? In other words, when fear comes against you, do you dwell on those defeating thoughts or do you rise up and start confessing the promises of God over your life? If you choose to dwell on your fears and think about all the reasons why you can´t do what God is telling you to, then before long you´re going to develop a negative mindset that will hold you back. It´s much more difficult to overcome. So much of our battle is won in our head.

Don´t just sit on the sidelines of life when there is so much potential on the inside of you! don´t allow the enemy to hold you back with fear any longer. Focus on that vision of victory. Be bold and step out in faith! Today is a new day! It´s your new beginning. Just because you feel fear, doesn´t mean you have to follow fear. Every person feels fear at some point. The greatest men and women of the Bible all felt fear. But when fear comes, don´t give in!

 

Stay the course of faith and follow God´s Word. Break that negative power over your life and move forward into the freedom and joy He has in store for you!

 

A PRAYER FOR YOU TODAY  

Father in heaven, thank You for giving me strength to stand strong against fear in my life. I choose to have an attitude of faith and expectancy by focusing on Your promises. Today I am rising up and pressing forward into the life of victory You have for me. In Jesus´ Name. Amen.

We sure love you!
Eric & Rita
