Today’s Scripture: Luke 17:5 ESV; The apostles said to the Lord, "Increase our faith!" The apostles living and walking with Jesus knew they didn’t have the faith He required. We don’t either. The Good News of Jesus Christ is that He is the author and finisher of our faith and He will increase our faith if we ask. Jesus says we just need to have ... Continue Reading »
Affirmation of God: I am filled with the fullness of God.
Today’s Scripture: Ephesians 3:19 ESV: and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. Paul was attempting to explain this mystery to the Ephesians over two thousand years ago and this is mostly still a mystery today. Do we really grasp what being filled with the fullness of God is all ... Continue Reading »
Affirmation of God: In God I trust.
Today’s Scripture: Psalm 143:8 ESV; Let me hear in the morning of your steadfast love, for in you I trust. Make me know the way I should go, for to you I lift up my soul. In coming to know God and who He is I come to trust Him. As we mature in faith we learn how little we can trust ourselves but how abundantly we can trust God. I heard God’s ... Continue Reading »
Affirmation of God: I find life in Jesus.
Today’s Scripture: Matthew 10:39 ESV: Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. Have we ever lost our life for Jesus’ sake?

Affirmation of God: I thank and praise you, God.
Today’s Scripture: Daniel 2:23 NLT Tyndale: I thank and praise you, God of my ancestors, for you have given me wisdom and strength. When do you thank God? Do you wait until everything has come out as you planned? Daniel stepped out in faith. He requested an appointment with the king to interpret his dream BEFORE he had even asked God to reveal to ...

Affirmation of God: I have entered God’s rest.
Today’s Scripture: Hebrews 4:10 ESV; for whoever has entered God’s rest has also rested from his works as God did from his. The writer of Hebrews encourages us to rest in our faith. If we believe the promise of God and the grace of Jesus we can rest. So, what is the “same sort of disobedience” we fall into like those in the desert under Moses ... Continue Reading »
Affirmation of God: I live by the power of God.
Today’s Scripture: 2 Corinthians 13:4 ESV; For he was crucified in weakness, but lives by the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but in dealing with you we will live with him by the power of God. Do we live as if God’s power is with us? Our God is faithful and I love it when He stands at the intersection of life and His Promises. He is ... Continue Reading »
