WALK PEACEFULLY WITH GOD through this day. You are wondering how you will cope with all that is expected of you. You must traverse this day like any other: one step at a time. Instead of mentally rehearsing how you will do this or that, keep your mind on GOD’S Presence and on taking the next step. The more demanding your day, the more help you can expect from GOD. This is a training opportunity, since The LORD designed you for deep dependence on HIM, your Shepherd-King. Challenging times wake you up and amplify your awareness of needing GOD’S help. When you don’t know what to do, wait while The LORD opens the way before you. Trust that GOD knows what HE is doing, and be ready to follow HIS lead. GOD will give strength to you, and GOD will bless you with Peace.”
The LORD replied, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.” EXODUS 33 : 14
The bolts of your gates will be iron and bronze, and your strength will equal your days. DEUTERONOMY 33 : 25
May the God of peace, who through the blood of the eternal covenant brought back from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep, equip you with everything good for doing his will, and may he work in us what is pleasing to him, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen. HEBREWS 13 : 20 – 21
The LORD gives strength to his people; the LORD blesses his people with peace. PSALM 29 : 11
Prayer: Lord thank you the more demanding my day, the more I can expect your help when I give up control to you. Help me to view challenging times as reminders of how much I need your help. Give me strength and peace to do your good works today. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
