Today’s Scripture: You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed. Psalm 139:16 NLT
Today is a big day. Every day is huge because our LORD has a plan for us TODAY. Are we seeking His plan?
Just like David earlier in Psalm 139:6, such knowledge is too wonderful for me. As God’s Word Translation says such knowledge is beyond my grasp. I can not understand how God has planned my every day, but I must understand that He has.
Am I listening and searching for God with all of my heart, soul and mind like today is the day? Do you think that is why it was Jesus’ practice to go off alone to pray? To make sure He was on the same page with God EVERY DAY?
What is more important for you today? The plan the world has presented or the plan God has for you? He does have a plan today. LORD guide my spirit to Your plan.
Today’s Prayer: Abba, You know Your plan for me today. Fill my spirit with Your spirit with what You intend today. Forgive me for the many days I have not sought Your way. Your ways are too wonderful for me but they are my ways. Guide me and direct me and show me Your way today. Amen

Desiray says
When it comes to God knowing me I love reading Psalm 139 because it says it’s the best for me, that God knows just what I am about to say before I even open my mouth, He knows when I am going to stand and sit when I get upset or mad. He knows me all to well. And for that I am so very thankful…
Tom Raines says
Desiray, thank you so much. Love DAvid’s heart too!! I too am thankful and rejoicing with you!!
