Bible Verse of The Day – 8-5-20

Philippians 3:14 (NKJV) 14 I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.

Life can be odd at times.

Sometimes we have goals and desires that we work to attain. We want to advance in our careers or on our jobs.

Or maybe we want to learn a new skill.

Maybe we want a relationship with someone so we can get married and raise a family.

All of these are good. They all have merit. And God will often bless us by allowing them to happen in our lives.

We often receive emails and prayer requests from people who are looking for direction, or are hoping for some kind of support in their quest to reach a goal.

We reply to them all, and very often with the same kind of message or answer. So, we thought we would share that in a devotional, to help give some direction to everyone who reads our emails and social media posts.

As we mentioned above, working toward goals can be very good. We should all have some direction in our lives. Without goals and direction, we will wander aimlessly.

In the midst of this, however, we need to stay focused on the One who matters most. He is our ultimate goal and the prize that we seek.

If we get caught up in the things of this world, our walk with Him will suffer and become weaker than it should be.

That’s the last thing we want happening.

So, be sure to keep Him at the forefront of all we do and all we endeavor to do.

When our heart is aligned with His, He will give us what we desire.

Psalm 37:4 (NKJV) 4 Delight yourself also in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart.
