A Human Struggle Nov.30

 

Righteousness and intelligence should go together when understanding the Kingdom of God principles. A person who guides only with intelligence, and no right doing, should be avoided. A person who tries to lead with righteousness and no moral intelligence cannot be trustworthy either. Raw Intelligence may only point to worldly conclusions. Alone, righteousness tends toward emotional captivity. Trust the person who uses both energies of moral intelligence [the universe stands behind ultimate truth] and righteousness [Jehovah God’s kingdom guidebook] to bridge any understanding in your walk with the Savior.

Prayer: Thank you, Lord, that the Holy Spirit speaks clearly and does not trick us with thoughts or emotions.

Today’s Process Nov.29

 

Your relationship remains a covenant with the heavenly Father. You experience crisis, at times, and then a proper connection because you initially formed a bond with God. But the process of growing keeps moving on and on. You are to give away a part of yourself each day in order to submit self to God’s kingdom. The kingdom of heaven thrives on continual growth. In a sense, you will not stop learning and developing when you pass from the earthly realm because a certain maturity continues throughout eternity.

Prayer: Lord, thank you for the idea we keep discovering new things even after our bodies move through death to another realm.

A Reminder Nov.28

 

You want God’s relationship to become a natural condition. Then move to action. Everyday say some prayer for some other person, read and meditate on a scripture, put love in action, or give something away. Practice your commitment to the Savior Jesus and he can become as natural to you as the air you breathe.

Prayer: Lord, I want to remember to think of you first when I go about my day.

Beyond Your Past Nov.27

 

Jehovah always remembers your work exercised by faith. He knows your labor prompted by love. He sees your endurance inspired by the hope in his Son. Keep thinking and discovering present and future possibilities and do not spend time on past events.

Prayer: Thank you, Lord, you gave us the ability to go beyond any of our present or past circumstances.

Persistence Nov.26

 

You may have seen a single plant push up out of the hardest concrete. The struggle the seed endures may be slow but the life in it remains certain. Up it pushes with what appears unexplainable life. The truth is a most powerful surge comes from Divine life-giving creation. You too are a seed. You can overcome the hardest challenges by claiming Holy Spirit life within. Remember:You are made in God’s image.

Prayer: Help us today face our challenges with Christ-like behavior.

Obstacles Nov.25

 

When doubt knocks on your door just say, “There’s nobody home. Only someone named faith lives here.” Fear hinders faith. Surrender all your hindrances and barriers between you and Christ. Obstacles and limitations only cause you to stay upset and become too centered with earthly worry. Anxious moments just breed more anxious moments. The Holy Spirit wants to continue setting you free. Give away those subtle snares that trap you. Just say: “Fear is not home.” Let the Spirit rule.

Prayer: Lord, help me be careful to give away my wasteful snares.

Which Faith? Nov.24

 

Faith becomes active, when you graciously accept and act upon, that to which you already believe. Trust your faith more and your trust in faith. For instance, The Prodigal son’s older brother let anger get in his way of forgiveness. Anger portrays nothing but hostile fear. Fear stands in the opposite of faith. Make conscious effort to trade your anger for peace because peaceful ease creates genuine faith. Then, practice adding to your faith motion, accepting you can endure, maintain self-control, and promote heavenly Father’s kindness with action to all humanity.

Prayer: Lord, help us avoid planning our lives from fear and doubt motivation. Help our fearful efforts embrace more of your love.
