Feb 29 - You are His Disciple
“The Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him.” (John 8:29)
Dear Jesus lived by faith. Did you know that? Some people don’t seem to realize that. They think that because He was the Son of God, He just floated through life with some mystical, supernatural power we could never have. But Jesus Himself said that the Father hadn’t left Him...

Feb 28 - He Will Lead You
“This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.”
(Galatians 5:16)
Dear Walking in the Spirit. That’s the key to overcoming the flesh. If you follow the prompting of the Spirit of God within you, you won’t be dominated by the pressure your flesh tries to put on you. As you listen to the written Word and the Holy Spirit telling you...

Feb 26 - His Extravagant Love
“And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God.” (Deuteronomy 28:2)
Dear , Some people have very low expectations of what God will provide for them materially. They trust Him to feed and clothe them, but they don’t trust Him to feed and clothe them very well! Somehow they’ve gotten the idea...

Feb 25 - The Choice Is Yours
“Choose you this day whom ye will serve.”
(Joshua 24:15)
Dear Choosing to side with God’s Word is a continual challenge. It’s not something you do just once. It’s a process of choosing to believe and act upon the Word of God over and over in every circumstance. That’s what everyone has to do. Years ago I decided I was going to choose Jesus. Since then...

Feb 24 - Peace at Home
“For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.” (James 3:16)
Dear Have you ever noticed that the easiest place to remain self-centered is at home? There’s an incentive to be lovely with others, but with your family you are tempted to allow yourself more selfish privileges as if it didn’t count there. Before I was a Christian, I was more...

Feb 23 - Don't Stop at the Gate
“Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.” (Hebrews 4:16)
Dear When you made Jesus the Lord of your life, one of the privileges you received was the right to come to the throne room of God any time you want to. Think about that! You have the right to go boldly before God and obtain whatever you...

Feb 22 - Be Willing to Wait
“He who guards his mouth and his tongue keeps himself from troubles.” (Proverbs 21:23)
Dear There’s just no two ways about it. To live a life of blessing, we have to make our words agree with what God says. Not just for a few hours or a few days, but all the time. If you’ve ever done that, you know it’s not easy. As time wears on and the circumstances around you...

Behold the Lord
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind.
– Romans 12:2
Inside, you’re perfect—born again in the image of Jesus Himself. But outwardly do you find yourself falling frustratingly short of that perfection? Is there a solution? Yes! The secret lies in “the renewing of your mind.”
Romans 12:2 tells us that, if you’ll...

Feb 20 - Joy: A Very Real Force
“The joy of the Lord is your strength.”
(Nehemiah 8:10)
Dear Joy. It’s not a warm, happy feeling you’re supposed to have now and then when things are going well. It’s much more than that. Joy is one of the most powerful spiritual forces in the world. Look again at Nehemiah 8:10 and I’ll show you why. If you were to diagram that scripture and remove the...

Feb 19 - Put the Word First
“Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth. Forsake her not, and she shall preserve thee: love her, and she shall keep thee.” (Proverbs 4:5-6)
Dear Recently, God has been raising up ever-growing numbers of people who are hungry. Hungry to know their Lord in a deeper way. Hungry to serve Him—in pulpits, on mission fields, in...

Feb 18 - Sin Stained...or Blood Washed?
“This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them; And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.” (Hebrews 10:16-17)
Dear The Bible tells us that under Levitical law, an animal had to be offered every year to atone for the sins of the people. That word atone means...
