1 John 4:12-15 No one has ever seen God. If we love one another, God remains in us, and his love has been brought to its goal in us. This is how we know that we remain in him and he in us: He has given us of his Spirit. We have seen and testify that the Father has sent his Son to be the Savior of the world. If anyone confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God remains in him…

Colossians 3:12 – 15 Therefore, as God’s elect, holy and loved, clothe yourselves with heartfelt compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. Bear with one another and forgive each other if anyone has a complaint against anyone else. Forgive, just as Christ forgave you. And, in addition to all these things, put on love, which ties things together in perfect unity. Let the peace of Christ control your hearts, to which you were also called, in one body. And be thankful. Dear…

Hebrews 13:14 For we do not have a permanent city here, but we are looking for the city that is coming. Dear Heavenly Father, We have been placed on this earth to wander here until our time is ended, but our wandering is not pointless. We have been given three tasks, one you would have all people be saved and come to a knowledge of the truth. So, this is step one; we must come to know you. Your Spirit…

Proverbs 16:9 A person’s heart plans his way, but the Lord makes his steps secure. Dear Heavenly Father, Thank you for this reminder that you have given us the freedom to make our own decision about what we would like to do. We have the freedom to make plans, to decide what we will do in our lives and where we will do from day to day. You watch over those plans we make; some you allow to be blessed while others you…

1 Timothy 2:1-4 First of all, then, I urge that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, for kings and all those who are in authority, in order that we might live a quiet and peaceful life in all godliness and dignity. This is good and pleasing in the sight of God our Savior, who wants all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. Dear Heavenly Father, With all that is…
1 Corinthians 1:22-25 Yes, Jews ask for signs, Greeks desire wisdom, but we preach Christ crucified—which is offensive to Jews and foolishness to Greeks, but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God. We preach Christ crucified because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men. Dear Heavenly Father, Not much has changed since Paul’s time. To talk about…

Revelation 1:8 “I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, the one who is, and who was, and who is coming, the Almighty. Dear Heavenly Father, Your word brings us comfort today. As we see the challenges of how sin plagues the world around us, only you can give us comfort. At first glance, the world may seem as though evil is gaining the upper hand. Lord, we know this simply is not true. When we step away…

Psalm 118:24 This is the day the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it. Dear Heavenly Father, Each day is a gift from you. We have another day of grace that we spend watching the works of your hands in our lives. You are so consistent in what you do that we expect everything to happen as it has in the last moments. But every moment is a blessing for us. You have given us more time to spend…

Acts 4:11-12 “This Jesus is the stone that was rejected by you builders, which has become the cornerstone. There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to people by which we must be saved.” Dear Heavenly Father, Thank you for giving us your Son as the rock of perfection, which became the cornerstone of your church; he is our rock and our redeemer. All the world was dead in their sins and…
