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 

"When he was accused by the chief priests and the elders, he gave no answer. Then Pilate asked him, "Don't you hear the testimony they are bringing against you?" But Jesus made no reply, not even to a single charge-to the great amazement of the governor" (Matthew 27:12-14, NIV)

TODAY'S WORD   
,  a few years ago someone asked me what I thought about a guy he named, but I hadn't ever heard of him. I just replied, "I'm sorry. I don't know him." He began to laugh and thought that was so funny. I asked, "Well, who are they?"

He said, "Eric, he is your most outspoken critics. He's always talking about you."

 

He couldn't believe that I hadn't ever heard of him. I've learned that you can't waste your time engaging in conflicts that don't matter. There will always be critics. There will always be naysayers, but we have to follow the example of Jesus. When He was falsely accused, He didn't try to defend Himself. He gave no reply to the charges against Him.

 

Remember, the critics cannot keep you from your destiny. They don't define who you are. They don't determine your worth and value. You are a child of the Most High God. The Creator of the universe breathed life into you. As a believer in Jesus, you are crowned with favor. Turn away from accusing voices so you can focus on the destiny God has prepared for you!

 

A PRAYER FOR YOU TODAY   

Father, today I cling to You because You are my defender! I choose to turn away from accusing voices. I choose to turn away from petty conflicts. I look to You knowing that You are leading and guiding me in paths of victory in Jesus' name. Amen.

 

, we really do love you and we believe in you!
