Let God Fix It For You!

Psalm 51:1-2 "Have mercy on me, O God, according to your unfailing love; according to your great compassion blot out my transgressions. Wash away all my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin." INSPIRATION: Once you've tried fixing situations on your own, try God! Allow His mercy to encourage you mentally, physically, and spiritually to a new way of thinking. Today, throw out your old way of thinking and allow God's mercy to catapult you into your blessing.

Move, Get Out the Way!

Mark 11:24 "Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours." INSPIRATION: Notice, the scripture says, "you have received it." This tells me that before we even go to God with our requests; His will is already in place for our victory. Whatever you have already prayed for, know that God is two steps ahead of you clearing out the path for your praise dance. You may have to move some things out of the way on the path, but remember, the word says, "You have received it, so stop worrying about it!"

Patience Is The Key!

Hebrews 11:11 "By faith Abraham, even though he was past age -- and Sarah herself was barren -- was enabled to become a father because he considered him faithful who had made the promise." INSPIRATION: As long as you remain faithful to God, He will be faithful to you and answer your request. Remember, our timing is not God's timing so it will never be too late to get the victory out of a situation. Stay faithful; it's on its way!

A Good Benefits Package

Psalm 103:2 "Praise the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits." INSPIRATION:
A benefits package is an added entity which makes you decide whether or not you want a particular job. Working for Christ works the same way. You either like the benefits of following Him or you think you don't need Him. Try to imagine a life without the benefits of Christ …there is no comparison.

Praise God Anyhow!

Habakkuk 3:17-18 "Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will be joyful in God my Savior." INSPIRATION: There may be times when it seems impossible to praise God when everything around you seems so dark; but always consider that your situation is probably still better than someone else's. As opposed to concentrating on your entire have not's, consider reflecting on all your possessions and begin to thank God for just the little things. Little blessings things turn to big blessings when you begin to praise God!

I’ve Got Good News!

Isaiah 12:4-5 "Give thanks to the Lord, call on his name; make known among the nations what he has done, and proclaim that his name is exalted. Sing to the Lord, for he has done glorious things; let this be known to all the world." INSPIRATION: Don't you just love it when God does something so amazing in your life that you have to go tell someone else?! No matter how small or how large you think your blessing is, sharing your story with others is the same as spreading good news to those who need to believe that He can make a difference in their lives. Today, tell of his excellent greatness!

Unexpected Blessing

1 John 2:17 "The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives forever." INSPIRATION: You can probably remember the smile you put on someone's face when you gave them an unexpected gift more than the smile they gave you when you gave them a birthday present. It is the times when people least expect a blessing that makes a difference in their lives for a very long time. Today, surprise someone with the unexpected.

Striving for Peace

Romans 12:18 "If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone." INSPIRATION: In order to receive your increase from God; your goal at the end of each day should be to find peace with everyone and every decision you made. Peace allows forgiveness, favor and the fortitude to reach new achievements and move you from good to great. Today, make it a peaceful day!

Unconditional Love

Matthew 22:37 Jesus replied: "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind." INSPIRATION: The two organs that control us are the mind and the heart. If your heart is conditioned to love unconditionally, then your mind will follow through in actions. Today, be sure your heart and your mind are fixed on love first.

The Power of Pressing!

James 1:12 "Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him." INSPIRATION: Circumstances in life only get worse when you give up.  It is easier to just give up, but it takes more energy to fail than to succeed.  Keep striving for a better you.  Keep pressing for growth.  Allow God to take you to the next level and you'll be so grateful for not giving up.
