I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare: before they spring forth I tell you of them.
Isaiah 42:8-9
INSPIRATION
God is a jealous god. He does not want to us to give our affection to anything of the world. As the creator of the universe, He knows all things as He created all things. Therefore, he deserves all our praise. He knows what has passed and what is yet to come.
Let's PRAY 🙏
Dear God, forgive for the times when I have turned away from you and idolized the things of this world. You are the only one who deserves my worship. Forgive me. Thank you for extending your mercy. Thank you for continuing to do new things, O Lord. I place my trust in you. In Jesus’ name, amen.
The scribes could only teach in the synagogue saying, "the Scripture says this or that" or "the rabbis say such and such," but Jesus taught as one having personal authority. He was not a mere scribe, nor even only a prophet, but the very Son of God.
Matthew 7: 28-29

Lord Jesus, you are the authoritative Son of God, and your Word is Law. You bring us the Words of the Father and you are the Word of the Father. We know that you have the Words of Life, and that salvation is to be found in no other. Help us to pay careful attention to your Words and teachings, knowing from whom they come.

Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.
ROMANS 12:21
INSPIRATION
It is easy to render evil for evil, giving others "what they deserve." But we are called to do good even when other men don't. And often, God will use a godly example in the midst of those who do evil to win them to Him. We should not be overcome by and conformed to evil but by doing good, we should fight it and defeat it.
Let's PRAY 🙏
Lord God Almighty, there is no evil that can overcome us while Your grace defends us, there is no evil we cannot conquer and defeat when Your grace goes with us. We know that whoever is born of God overcomes the world. We who know Your name are the true "overcomers," but only because You first overcame the world and then sent us Your Spirit to empower us.
And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead?
Isaiah 8:19
INSPIRATION
Many wish to go to a multitude of other sources to find direction in life, especially in times of trouble. In Isaiah's day, many turned to wizards and those involved in the occult, and many still do today. But God's people should reject these methods and turn "to the Law and to the testimony." (verse 20)
Let's pray 🙏
We dare not trust the world of darkness, but we put our trust in you alone, O Lord, as our source of wisdom for life. We know that Satan himself appears like an angel of light to better deceive many, and that false religions are full of doctrines of devils and sacrifices to devils, though the participants mostly are unaware of it. Only in your Word do we find the true light that will guide us through even the most trying of times.

My son, despise not the chastening of the LORD; neither be weary of his correction:For whom the LORD loveth he correcteth; even as a father the son in whom he delighteth.
Proverbs 3: 11-12
INSPIRATION
Correction is an important part of our growth as Christians. From the day we become saved, we have things in our lives that need to be worked on and improved. God is the one who helps us through this process, mostly by correcting us of our erroneous ways. God takes delight in those who take correction because it shows that they are willing to follow His guidance in their lives. A major part of loving God is being obedient; taking correction is a part of that obedience.
Let's 🙏
Dear God, I pray that I will always be someone who takes correction well. May I never become proud and think that I am above improving my ways. I do not desire to veer into foolishness, Lord. Guide me accordingly, Father. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
WHEN YOU WALK WITH THE LORD faithfully, YOU NEED NOT FEAR ANY POWER OF DARKNESS OR ANY ANCIENT FAMILY YOKE OR CURSES.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
PSALM 23:4
INSPIRATION
You need to realize that any appearance of death or destruction that you come across, is merely a shadow. It can never taint your salvation or separate you from God in any way. As a Christian, you don’t need to fear evil because you are seated with Christ in heavenly places. You are far above all principalities and powers, because you are hidden in Christ.
LET'S PRAY
Dear God, I thank you that I am seated in the heavenly places with Christ, where no force of evil can rock me or floor me. The enemy will never have power over me because of where I am with You, Lord. Thank you for covering me, Lord, and for always being with me. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
GOD BLESS YOU.

The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable: but the mouth of the wicked speaketh frowardness.
Proverbs 10:32
INSPIRATION
Life and godliness come from the lips of those who embrace and walk in godly wisdom. But those who choose to be wicked and focus on perverse things will always partake in unwholesome talk that will never profit a soul. Their words will only corrupt themselves and anyone who decides to try to embrace what they say.
LET'S 🙏
Dear God, I pray that I never find counsel in the words of the wicked. May I never be so foolish as to make such a careless decision, Lord. May I always remain set on Your word, and Your word alone, so that the fruit of my lips will be wise and godly to those who hear. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
THE LIFE OF A BELIEVER IS TOTAL SELFLESSNESS.

VERSE FOR TODAY:
Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
Philippians 2:5-6
INSPIRATION
The life of a Christian is a life of total selflessness. Everything we do, should be done out of love and never out of selfish ambition. No, that is the height of all selfishness. It is God's will for us that we will be able to give - financially and in kind - with our whole hearts and never wonder about what the other person, or people, can do for us. God expects us to look out for one another, with genuine concern and compassion for one another. This is how we express the love He so freely gave us.
Let's PRAY 🙏
Dear God, I pray that as I live my life as a Christian, as Your child, may I never have selfishness as a priority in my life. Help me to be selfless in all my ways, O Lord, so I may be an example of You to Your children. You set the standard first, O God, and I ask that You help me to walk in this standard. I thank you, Father, for this great faithfulness. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.

There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.
1 CORINTHIANS 10:13
INSPIRATION
God is always looking out for us. He will never tempt us with something that is too difficult for us to bear. Sometimes life can seem too difficult and the temptations too great, but this can also be viewed as God believing in us, that we are able to bear these trials. His faith and love never cease, and more importantly, neither does his love and belief in us. What about our love and belief in him? That is the more important question.
LET'S PRAY 🙏
Help lead me not into temptation God, and help me understand that there is no temptation too great if I believe in You. I am so humbled in Your belief in me, merciful God, especially knowing the pain and temptation that Your son, Jesus Christ, chose to endure for us. His sacrifice will not be in vain, and I will bear my temptations and help others to bear theirs. In honor of Your purpose for me I pray, my Lord. Amen.

[8/10, 10:50 PM] MY TESTIMONY: Help me to not use my freedom as an excuse to walk uncharitably or to live for myself. All things must be done so as to serve God and serve others, not simply to serve myself. Give me godly discernment, I pray, to know what will edify and what will needlessly offend others. Give me a spirit of love that seeks good for others instead of just claiming my own rights.
[8/26, 1:10 AM] MY TESTIMONY: I ask that You listen to my humble prayer, Abba Father. Help me to vanquish my demons, Lord, strengthening my faith with each day. I have wandered off the path of righteousness, sometimes losing the path completely. You have carried me when I refused to walk and always directed me back to the path through Your love. I want to be more like You and Your son, Jesus Christ, and it is with this prayer that I hope to pledge my life debt to His sacrifice. In His holy name I pray, Amen.

Verse for Today
Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering
; COLOSSIANS 3:12
INSPIRATION
As Christians, we have been chosen by God to share His light with the world. Therefore, it is our duty to do it with mercy, kindness, humility, meekness (gentleness), and longsuffering (patience). It reminds me of 1 Colossians 13: 4-5: “Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil.” Now go and love the Lord and all people!
LET'S PRAY 🙏
Gracious Lord, You are merciful, kind, humble, gentle, patient, and never think evil. I wish that I could say that I was the same, but as You know, merciful Father, I am weak and have trespassed against You and my fellow man. I ask Your forgiveness for my sins, and implore You to aid me in my path to righteousness. I shall devote my energy to committing acts of kindness and humility, and do them in honor of my service to You and Your son, Jesus Christ. Amen.
