TODAY'S SCRIPTURE
"Now set your mind and heart to seek (inquire of and require as your vital necessity) the Lord your God" (I Chronicles 22:19, AMP).
TODAY'S WORD
, have you "set your mind" today? In other words, when you woke up this morning, did you make the decision to focus on good things and to follow God with all your heart? If we don't set our minds, if we don't purposely focus our thoughts and energy, then chances are, we'll be bombarded by the cares of life. We'll be tossed back and forth by every situation we encounter. We'll be distracted by every phone call, upset by the traffic, offended by what someone said, and we'll get off the course God intended. We've all heard it said that the best defense is a good offense. When you proactively set your thoughts, you are putting yourself on the offense. You are taking charge of your life. You are being an on-purpose person. You're redeeming the time. Make the decision today to set your mind on things above. Set your mind on God's eternal purposes so that you can stand in the victory He has for you. A PRAYER FOR YOU TODAY
Father in heaven, thank You for the gift of today. I dedicate this day to You. I dedicate my mind, will, and emotions to You. Use me this day for Your purposes and keep me on the path You have for me. In Jesus' Name. Amen. |
| We sure love you!
