Morning devotional (Day 1)

God is present for us in so many ways! He is our wonderful, loving father, and he adores us and will be there for us every step of the way. Don't forget to include him in whatever you're doing or circumstance. He can complete tasks that would usually take us years to complete. Remember, he is our creator and miracle worker.

Now pray:

Dear Lord, I put on my spiritual armor as I begin my day! I put on my salvation helmet. Please preserve my mind and thoughts, Lord, and enable me to avoid having any poisonous thoughts today.

Please keep my imagination safe. I put on my righteousness breastplate. Please, Lord, keep my heart and emotions safe. I put on my truth belt. Please allow your words to penetrate to the very center of my existence. I put on my peace sandals. Lord, please help me to stay steadfast in the face of the enemy's attarks that will come my way today. I'm going to put my faith in your word. Please direct my steps and assist me in remaining solid today! I'm holding my shield of trust with my left hand!

Please assist me in deflecting and extinguishing the enemy's fiery darts that will be aimed at me today. Build a barrier of opposition around me and my family. Hold the sword of the spirit, which is your precious word, in my right hand. Help me to touch the hearts of everyone I meet today and tell them about your lovely and amazing son, Jesus Christ.

Thank you for your amazing grace and never-ending kindness, Lord. Thank you for your unconditional love and mercy for me. All of this I ask in the most priceless, holy, and majestic name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

God reveals in order to redeem

The enemy you know is less persuasive than the enemy you don’t know. In most cases, God displays himself to us in dreams or in visions. So whenever God discloses it to you. He is warning you to take a step and to act upon what he revealed. One thing you should perceive is that your enemy is not your neighbor, sister, colleagues, etc. We only have one enemy, which is the devil. Satan is very manipulative and if you aren’t prayerful enough, you’ll end up falling in to his traps. The day you’ll understand, you’ll avoid despising them.

How to depend on Jesus

The things of this world cannot fill the empty space within us; only Christ can complete us. This embodies for us that we need Jesus more than anything else on this planet. God did not put us here to rely on ourselves, but to rely on him for everything. We can't survive without him, which is why the Bible cautions us not to rely on our own understanding, because our understanding can fail us and our hearts can lead us astray. Physically, we may appear to be capable of doing things on our own, but on the inside, we are slowly dying. I don’t know about you, but if you haven't yet accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Savior, it’s not too late. The Bible encourages us in Jeremiah 33:3 that if we call on God, he will answer us and tell us things we don't know. God is waiting for your call today. He is waiting for you to come to him and ask him to show you the way. Here is a short prayer to seek God: Heavenly Father, please forgive me for all of my transgressions against

How do we allow our past to not define us

Even if you don't have everything together, rest certain that God sees you as his priceless possession. Your past does not define who you are today. In actuality, from a spiritual viewpoint, who you are today is not determined by your past. It might affect your thoughts, but it doesn't make you who you are. God proclaims our true identity: that we are made in His likeness and in His image, reflecting both the male and female facets of God (according to Genesis 1:26-27).
