Today’s Scripture: Moved by the Spirit, he went into the temple courts. When the parents brought in the child Jesus to do for him what the custom of the Law required Luke 2:27 NIV
When we are moved by the Spirit we are in the right place. Following the Spirit and God’s Law puts us in the perfect place.
Holy Spirit I am asking You to move me. Have me be where the Spirit of God wants me to be. I am thankful that even in my running away, in my rebellion, You have had me run to just the right place.
God use Your Spirit, Your law, Your servants and Your supernatural power to move me where I am to be. Please move me to seek Your will. Move me to the right relationships to serve Your purposes. Thank You for using Your Spirit and Your Law to bring me here. I am going now where You lead.
Please grant me the discernment to hear You clearly and the wisdom and courage to move.
Why has the Spirit moved you to this very place today? Have you asked Him to move you?
Today’s Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank You for loving me and caring for me. Thank You for Your assurance and your provision. Thank You for having me here. Open my spirit to know where Your Holy Spirit is moving me. Help me to do Your Law and to devoutly follow You. Amen.

PS Tom–Check with your church secretary, as I’ve sent you some special mail……
Tom Raines says
Thank you dear friend. You are too kind and unaware of the blessings of your gifts. God uses all of our gifts for Him. Blessings!

I was just fretting it would get lost in the shuffle, as it’s for you–but sent c/o the church. You might be needing an extra Sis Blessing.
Tom Raines says
I will follow up with Debbie for sure to make sure all is good. The LORD will multiply your blessings to those He intends! I am grateful for your giving spirit. Your thoughtfulness touches my soul.
Tom Raines says
Sis, fret no more. I tracked down your gift and drove tonight to pick it up. What a sweet gift it was. I must tell you that I feel that you and God have planted a mighty seed for His Kingdom. This is the rock that this ministry will be built on. I am deeply touched and extremely encouraged that God has used my Sis BIG time. Sometimes we never see the bloom of the seed yet I pray you are as blessed as me as we know God is and will use us with what we have. It is enough. GOD SIZED GRATITUDE and praise. Blessings as you continue to be moved by the Spirit of God to further His kingdom with the HUGENESS you possess. In His Love, Tom
