Day 4 - 40 Days in the Word

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life - John 3:16. For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God - 1 Peter 3:18. What an amazing thing! God loves us so much that He gave us His one and only Son, and all He asks is that we believe in Him! Our perfect Lord, righteous and completely holy, suffered for our sins so that we could be broug

Day 3 - 40 Days in the Word

Fear the LORD your God, serve him only… - Deuteronomy 6:13. This may seem simple enough, but there are many things that can become idols for us. We are to serve Him only. Just as our Lord said, "No one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other ( Matthew 6:24. ).” Prayer: Lord, we thank You that no temptation has overtaken us that is not common to man, and that You are faithful, and You wil

Do not put the LORD your God to the test as you did at Massah - Deuteronomy 6:16 Just as Jesus totally trusted His Father, we are to do the same.

Day 1 - 40 days in the word

Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.’ -Matthew 4:4 . Just like we need food to nourish our bodies and to fortify us, we need our Lord Jesus (the Word) to nourish, sustain and fortify our souls. It is imperative, as Christians, that we learn God's Word and that we feed on it daily. It is our sustenance, our protection, our life. Prayer: Father, we thank You for Your Son, we thank You for yo

40 Days in the Word

“ Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. –Psalm 119:105 As we approach Resurrection Day, I’m wanting to be more intentional about reflecting upon Who Jesus is and what He has done for me. Many years ago, I was asked to write a daily reflection on Scripture and a prayer for the 40 days leading up to Easter, or what I prefer to call Resurrection Day. When I completed the 40 days of these reflections on Scripture and prayer, I realized I had a book. I published

Put it into Practice

What you have learned and received and heard and seen in me — practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you. . —Philippians 4:9 ESV Have you ever tried to do something new? It can seem awkward at first, even a bit uncomfortable. However, the more you “practice”, the easier it gets and the better you become at whatever it is you’re doing. Professional athletes and musicians, to name just a few, spend hours and hours practicing to become better and to achieve re
