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  
Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for You are with me... (Psalm 23:4, NKJV.)

TODAY'S WORD   
, have you ever gone through something and felt like it was the valley of the shadow of death? Like maybe you would just stop, quit, give up. During the tough times, it's easy to get discouraged. But I love what it says in today's verse, "though I walk through..."

No matter what you are facing today, know this: you are not alone, and you are just walking through. You don't have to stop and live in the tough times! They are only temporary. I encourage you today; don't allow fear to paralyze you in the middle of "the valley of the shadow of death." Remember, God is with you. He is walking beside you. He is strengthening you. He is making a way of escape for you. He is lining up people and situations to bring you out of that tough place into a place of strength and victory. He's got people in your life who will stand with you. 

 

Today, don't give up! Press on and walk through! Start to get a vision of your life on the other side. See yourself more loving, more faithful, stronger and more blessed than ever before. As you keep moving forward and walking through, you will get to the other side and walk in the victory God has prepared for you!

 

A PRAYER FOR YOU TODAY   

Heavenly Father, thank You for Your faithfulness in my life. Thank You for walking with me even in the hard times. I trust that You are taking me through my circumstances to a place of victory and strength in Jesus' name. Amen.

, we really do love you and we pray this will be the best year ever!

Daily Devotion from Pastor Eric & Rita - It's All in Your Mind


It's All in Your Mind

 

Today's Devotional Reading: Ex. 25-27; Acts 6

 

CLICK on the Scripture above to link into your daily reading plan.

January 30, 2013

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  
Do not be conformed to this world (this age), [fashioned after and adapted to its external, superficial customs], but be transformed (changed) by the [entire] renewal of your mind... (Romans 12:2, AMP.)

TODAY'S WORD   
, many people today don't realize that the reason they're not happy, the reason they're not enjoying life is simply because they've trained their minds in the wrong direction. I've been there for years at times. They've trained their minds to worry. They've trained their minds to complain. They've trained their minds to see the negative. But just as you can form these negative mindsets, you can retrain your mind according to the Word of God and form godly mindsets.

I believe one of the main keys to retraining your mind and developing a positive attitude is by learning to stay grateful. When you stay grateful, you are focusing on what's right rather than what's wrong. The seed of the Word takes root in the good ground of your heart. This doesn't happen automatically, you have to discipline yourself. You have to make a conscious effort every single day until a good habit is formed. You really have to try every day.  

 

Remember, when you live with an attitude of praise and thanksgiving, you are shielding yourself from the attacks of the enemy. The seeds of discouragement cannot take root in a grateful heart. Neither can bitterness, envy or strife. So today, retrain your mind and be empowered with His strength to overcome in every area of your life!


 

A PRAYER FOR YOU TODAY   

Father in heaven, today I surrender my thoughts and mind to You. Help me retrain my thoughts so that they are in line with Your Word. I choose to have an attitude of faith and expectancy and thank You for empowering me to live the life You have for me in Jesus' name. Amen.

, we really do love you and we pray this will be the best year ever!
