Bible Verse of The Day – 2-24-17

Matthew 6:13 (NKJV) 13 And do not lead us into temptation, But deliver us from the evil one. For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.

As Jesus wrapped up this last part of His discourse on how to pray, He hit on the delicate, yet very relevant subject of temptation and evil. And then He finished by giving God glory and honor. Let’s take a look.

God, I know you are not the tempter. I know that all good things come from you, and you alone.

Give me the strength to turn and walk away from temptation when it tries to entice me. Open my eyes so that I might see temptation for what it is; a snare waiting to capture me and hurt or kill me.

And deliver me, Father, from the enemy of my soul, the evil one who wishes to destroy me and separate me from you forever with sin and darkness. Help me to withstand his schemes and have victory over them.

For your kingdom is above all kingdoms. And you rule and reign over everything, seen and unseen. All power and glory belong to you forever and ever. Amen!

So, there you have it. The model for prayer, set forth by Jesus Himself!

We hope you have enjoyed this short series and that it has helped shed some light on some things that maybe you didn’t previously know, or maybe get you to think about some things you had never really thought about before.

Now, go and pray in power!

Bible Verse of The Day – 2-22-17

Matthew 6:11 (NKJV) 11 Give us this day our daily bread.

This single verse is a huge part of our walk with God and will show us where we stand when it comes to trusting Him. Really trusting Him!

Notice that Jesus spoke only about today. Not tomorrow. Not next week or next month! So here it is, broken down. Notice how much our trust is tested in this one very short verse.

Father, give us what we need for today. Supply our needs. You know what they are. You know them all.

Provide for our bodily needs in the food we eat. Give us sustenance.

We’re not concerned with or worried about tomorrow. We are looking only at today. Nothing more and nothing less.

And we know that today is all You want us to be concerned with, because we trust that You have tomorrow in Your hands. And You have told us not to worry about tomorrow.

So we thank You for supplying our needs and taking care of us. You are everything we need!

Tune in again tomorrow for the next segment…

Bible Verse of The Day – 2-21-17

Matthew 6:10 (NKJV) 10 Your kingdom come. Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven.

As we continue to take a look at this lesson Jesus taught, let’s break this down and see what He was really telling us to do and say.

Father, let your kingdom come to the earth.

Let us pray and bring your presence to earth by our words and our actions. Let us be beacons of light in this dark world. Teach us to love those around us like only you can love.

There is so much hurt and pain and you are the great physician Who can heal each and every one of the hurting hearts.

So we ask and declare today, Lord, that whatever we loose and whatever we bind in heaven be done also here on earth.

To be continued…

Bible Verse of The Day – 2-20-17

Matthew 6:9 (NKJV) 9 In this manner, therefore, pray: Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name.

As Jesus began this discourse, he taught us how to pray.

His goal was not to teach us what to pray. His goal was not to teach us to recite this word for word. And His goal was not to give us a recitation that would act as the go-to verses that we would learn to repeat each day when we wish to talk or communicate with our Father.

Jesus gave us a model that we are to use, teaching us all of the various aspects of addressing our Father in heaven.

So let’s take a look at this particular piece of the model and see what Jesus was saying.

God in heaven. Abba, Father, our mighty Creator and Giver of life, You are holy.

God, you are above everything we see, everything that you created. You are pure and holy. You are everything I need in life. You are my source and my inspiration. I long to worship you and lift you high for the world to see.

Your name is above all names! Your name is powerful and limitless. And I bow before you, surrendering to you with all that I am.

We hope this helps bring understanding and a new perspective to what we commonly call “The Lord’s Prayer”.

More to come…
