Are you one of the saints?… Day 19
30:04 Psalm “Sing praises to the LORD, O you his saints, and give thanks to his holy name.” (ESV)

Do you like to sing? What songs seem to come to mind? Do you ever sing songs of praise to God? That would be appropriate because of ALL that He has done for you. He has called you to be His own people. He has called you to be among the saints… faithful followers of Christ. Is that how you are acting? Is that how you are living? Let us give praise and thanks to Him. As it says in Philippians 1:27 “Whatever happens, conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ…” (NIV)

Click ‘Like’ on this post and click ‘Share’ to pass along this verse to all of your family, friends, and neighbors. Ask if they break out in song when they hear a favorite song on the radio or TV. Ask if they ever stop to say, “Thank you, God” for their blessings during the day. Let them know that we have been greatly blessed. As a result, we should regularly offer our praise and thanks to God. We should rejoice in who God has made us through His saving grace. Take Time For God’s Word© whenever you hear singing, then recall this verse ’30:04’, and praise and thank God for His great love and blessings. Copy this verse and make it a Reminder on your phone at 3pm each day. Let it say, “30:04 Psalm…Sing praises…give thanks”. Let the ring tone be one of your favorite songs of praise. It will get your attention. It will remind you to praise God and to give thanks to Him. We ALL need to be reminded of that. It may also get some attention of those around you. It may give you the chance to share His love with them. You will be doubly blessed in doing that!

We also always extend our prayers for ALL of the people who serve in the various roles at our schools… principals, cooks, custodians, bus drivers, crossing guards, volunteers, nurses, etc. It takes a lot of people to work together to provide an education to our children and grandchildren. Each has a role to play. Each may have an impact on the students. Kind words… smiles… encouragements… and more will be remembered. They will have an influence. So, let us always have a positive attitude in all that we do. Thank them. Encourage them in their roles. Be a blessing wherever you are and to whomever God has placed in your path. Pass it on always with songs of praise and words of thanks to Him! ... See MoreSee Less

May God grant you the healing you pray for!… Day 18
30:02 Psalm “LORD my God, I called to you for help, and you healed me.” (NIV)

God has granted healing to those in need. Christ performed many miracles of healing during His ministry on earth. We have seen His hand of love and mercy act in miraculous ways. Yet, we still see sickness, disease, pain, and suffering around us. We are reminded that bodies may still suffer while it is the soul that is healed. Our bodies will one day die but our souls will last forever. May God still grant us the healings of body and soul according to His plans and purposes in our lives. Thank you, Lord!

Click ‘Like’ on this post and click ‘Share’ to recommend this verse to family, friends, and co-workers in His kingdom. Ask if they have ever experienced a healing in their lives. Ask how long they prayed for such a healing and how it came to them. Share how God is working in your life each day. Pray with and for others who are in need of His helping hand. We are a people of prayer. Use that gift often each day. Next, Take Time For God’s Word© whenever you see someone who needs to be healthy again, then recall this verse ’30:02’, and praise God for His healing hand. Show extra love and compassion for those who are in need of His help and healing each day. We sometimes avoid them, yet we need to be near to them in their needs and helping them to know the love of Jesus in their lives. Continue to seek His blessings on your loved ones who may need healing in their lives. Trust them into the care of God and be a peace with His plans for them.

Please pray for all of the teachers, aides, social workers, etc. in our schools at all levels. We need them to be good role models for our children. We need them to provide their best instruction and learning skills so that students may gain knowledge AND understanding of what they are learning. Support your local teachers. Encourage them in their work. They are often overburdened with administrative rules, scoring, testing, etc. Help them to be loving and kind in all that they do for our children. THANK YOU if you are (or have been) a teacher! Be a blessing to them. Pass it on through words of hope and healing each day! ... See MoreSee Less

God will give you strength for each day!… Day 17
29:11 Psalm “The LORD gives strength to his people; the LORD blesses his people with peace.” (NIV)

Do your ever feel drained… physically, emotionally, and even spiritually? That is when we need God to fill us with His strength and to give us His peace in our lives. When we are weak, that is when we are tempted the most. That is when we fail because we try to stand on our own. Seek God’s help when you feel weak. He is there. He will be with you. He will provide for you. He will NOT fail you!

Click ‘Like’ on this post and click ‘Share’ to route this verse to friends and family. Ask if they ever felt weak and totally drained of energy. Ask what helped them to rebound and to recover. Listen closely to how they answer. Share with them the love of God through Christ’s love for us. Help to strengthen their faith and let them know that you pray for them. Always remember to Take Time For God’s Word© whenever you feel weak… then think of a favorite verse or think of this verse ‘29:11’, and thank God for His strength and peace. Reach out to people today… phone calls, emails, texts, personal visits (yes, we can still meet people in person). Share the love of Christ with them. Listen to their needs. Help where you can. Let them see the love of Christ working in and through you. You will be blessed in the process. Be that blessing TODAY!

We pause in our prayers to remember all of those who lost family, homes, and even towns in the California fires recently. They still need help and support. We also pray for all of those who are enduring some challenging winter storms over much of the nation. Be a blessing to those in need. Stay warm and stay blessed wherever you are. Pass it on through words of strength and peace to those that you meet. ... See MoreSee Less

Listen to the voice of the Lord… Day 15
29:04 Psalm “The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is majestic.” (NIV)

Do you hear God speaking to you? Most of us don’t hear a booming voice from heaven… which would clearly get our attention. We hear God speaking to our hearts through His Word. Certain verses speak clearly to a need or a situation or an action that we need to take in our lives. Verses which we have read dozens of times before suddenly have new meaning to us… we are finally hearing the voice of God. Pay attention to His voice. Follow His commands. Do what He asks. Be blessed beyond measure for it!

Click ‘Like’ on this post and click ‘Share’ to commend this verse to all of your family, friends and neighbors. Ask if they have heard the voice of God speak to them. Ask what verse or what words spoke to their hearts. Let them know how God speaks to your heart. Listen carefully each day for His voice calling out to you. Then, Take Time For God’s Word© as you hear the different voices of people… then recall a favorite verse or think of this verse ‘29:04’, and thank God for speaking to you. Let your voice be heard. Share words of hope and love and joy and peace. Let your words be encouraging and commending to those around you. Words are powerful. Use words which bring blessings to others. Be ready to share a favorite verse with others. They will hear God speaking to them through His Word which you share with others.

Our earnest prayers go out to all of the seminaries and institutions which are training up the next generations of clergy, ministers, and lay leaders for our churches and fellowship groups. We need more pastors and ministers to continue to serve and to grow our churches. There is a gap now. There will be a huge gap in the next 5 years. Far more pastors are retiring than those who are graduating from our seminaries. Encourage youth to consider the ministry. Support them. Pray that more will be called into the ministry. Be a blessing to those who serve you now. Pass it on through an encouraging voice and words of blessings to others. ... See MoreSee Less

Let God shield you from danger… Day 14
28:07 Psalm “The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise him.” (NIV)

How well could you drive a car without a windshield? Not long, I would guess. It blocks out the rain, snow, wind, dirt, bugs, and much more. The shield that God puts around us is so much more than that. He helps us to withstand the attacks of Satan and the evil which is all around us. He stands with us. He stands for us. He holds us up. He truly is our strength. Rely on Him each day. Stand firm in the faith!

Click ‘Like’ on this post and click ‘Share’ to send along this verse to family, friends and co-workers in His kingdom. Ask if they have ever held a shield from ancient times. Ask if they would like to carry that around with them all day. Share with them how we are shielded through Christ each day. Let them know that He died for them. Please Take Time For God’s Word© as you look through a window or windshield today… then think of a verse or this verse ‘28:07’, and thank God that He is our strength and shield. This may be a good Reminder on your phone at 8:07am to start your day…’28:07 Psalm…my shield…my heart trusts in him”. With assurances like that, we can take on anything that comes our way. Then, help others along the way as well. Help to pick them up and walk with them. Be the friend that they have been praying for!

We continue to pray for all of the Christians across all of our public colleges and universities. They definitely need God’s shield around them. There are challenges, attacks, and temptations on all sides. All of the Christians, whether faculty, workers, or students need to be strengthened in their faith to show His love to a world which doesn’t think there is a need for God. Encourage those that you know in such circumstances. Let them know that you pray for them. Stay blessed in all of your activities each day. Pass it on with a smile on your face so that people will ask, ‘what makes you so happy,’… then tell them the Good News!! ... See MoreSee Less
