Today’s Scripture: 2 Corinthians 10:5, NKJV- “casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ,” How in this world do we take every thought captive and bring it to the obedience of Christ?

Today’s Scriptures: James 5:15-16, NKJV- “And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.

I am living eternal life today.
Today’s Scripture: John 17:3, BSB- “Now this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom You have sent.” Do you think of eternal life as what occurs after our physical deaths?

God, I believe in You and Your Son Jesus Christ.
Today’s Scripture: John 14:1, NKJV- “Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me” We humans create trouble. God created the structure to simplify all things for us.
