Brag on Him Today
Scripture “The LORD has done this, and it is marvelous in our eyes” (Psalm 118:23, NIV) Word I love David’s attitude in today’s verse. He was declaring the goodness of God and bragging on His faithfulness! We need to always remember that every blessing in our life is from Him. That promotion, good break, healing […]
Handfuls on Purpose
Scripture “And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, if you obey the voice of the Lord your God” (Deuteronomy 28:2, ESV) Word Our God is a rewarder of those who seek Him! When you keep God first place and do your best to honor Him, the Scripture says, “His blessings will […]
Embrace Your Season
Scripture “For everything there is a season, a time for every activity under heaven” (Ecclesiastes 3:1, NLT) Word God has ordained seasons and cycles in our lives. Sometimes, when our dreams aren’t coming to pass on our timetable, we can be tempted to get frustrated. But we have to be careful not to allow our […]
You Haven’t Seen Anything Yet!
Scripture “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him” (1 Corinthians 2:9, NKJV) Word Today’s verse is really an encouragement for all of us to raise our level of expectancy! It’s like God is saying to us, […]
The Land of Hope
Scripture “…I’ve pitched my tent in the land of hope…” (Acts 2:26, Message) Word Where have you pitched your tent today? In other words, what are you expecting to happen in your life this year?

The Wind is Blowing
Scripture “…‘Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,’ says the LORD Almighty” (Zechariah 4:6, NIV) Word Are you struggling or striving to make something happen? Maybe you need a breakthrough in your finances or in a relationship. It’s good to do everything we know to do in the natural, but we have […]

Get Ready
Scripture “Get ready! This is the day the Lord will give you victory…!” (Judges 4:14, NLT) Word It’s easy to get stuck in a rut and go into another year coasting on auto-pilot, expecting the same thing: same problems, same struggles and the same income. But God is a God of increase. He wants us […]
Pursue Loyalty
Scripture “He who pursues righteousness and loyalty finds life…” (Proverbs 21:21, NASB) Word Have you ever noticed that righteousness and loyalty go together? In other words, if we’re not being loyal — to our family, friends, country, job — then we aren’t going to experience God’s best. Loyal people are honorable people. When you’re loyal, […]
Bring Out the Best
Scripture “…Love is kind…” (1 Corinthians 13:4, NIV) Word You may have heard this verse many times before, but one translation says that “love looks for a way to be constructive.” In other words, kindness isn’t just about being nice; it’s looking for ways to improve someone else’s life. It’s bringing out the best in […]
The Greatest Thing
Scripture “And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love” (1 Corinthians 13:13, NIV) Word Spiritual maturity isn’t measured by how long you’ve been a Christian, how much you know, or how often you go to church. Spiritual maturity is measured by the way you treat other people. […]
