Affirmation of God: I fear the LORD my God, walk in His ways, love Him and serve Him with all of my heart and soul.

And what does the LORD your God require of you?  Does that question make you pause? Yes Lord please tell me what I need to do to have all  you have promised me.  Tell me Lord what it is, I will do it.

Affirmation of God: I give thanks to the LORD and praise His name.

What do we have to be thankful for? Let us count the ways. In the Celebrate Recovery Lesson 22 on Gratitude John Baker recommends we create a Gratitude List.  First of all, what are we thankful to God for?

Affirmation of God: The LORD almighty is with me.

Ahhh, how comforting to know that the LORD Almighty is with us. Can you feel the power and the peace? No?

Affirmation of God: I find life in the Word.

Today’s affirmation is taken from John 1:4: In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.   Verse 5 shows our natural reaction to this light “And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.”  Can we live but not be alive? In the first three chapters of John this morning I am reminded that there is a huge ... Continue Reading »

Affirmation of God: God is faithful.

How quickly can we turn from God to self?  Many days I cringe when writing out these affirmations because of the focus on “I”.  One of the basics of “affirmations” is to claim these things in the first person so we take ownership and believe and personalize these character traits of God. However today, as I began to read the scriptures this ... Continue Reading »
