She Reads Truth: Prayer in the Bible Devotional
Isn’t it good to know that no matter what happened yesterday, no matter what you said, no matter what you did, God’s mercy is new for you today? Mercy is empowering. It frees us to make the right choices and live in a way that is pleasing to God. We have to always remember that God is not condemning us. Romans tells us that there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ. God wants to love us and equip us to overcome in this life.
Do you need new mercy today? Receive it by faith. You don’t have to beg God to forgive you. He forgives you the first time you ask, but it’s up to you to receive that forgiveness. Open your heart today and receive His mercy. Let Him wash over you with His peace and joy. Then choose to extend that mercy to others. Remember, you are God’s representative in the earth. As you show His love and character to others, He’ll pour out His blessing upon you and use you in ways you never dreamed!
I am glad to say that I felt Gods mercy today. It feels so good to know that I felt his presence, I was filled with the Spirit and through that, God spoke to me. In the moment I was happy, and peaceful, in a way that I haven’t been in a long time. I was able to praise God and listen to what he wanted to say to me. I heard what he wants me to do, and I will try my very best to fulfill it.
Praise God :)
I will trust.

Revival.
It’s just one word, but it represents God’s purposes and best for your life. In a world broken by sin, revival is a critical part of God’s plan to heal, restore, and change everything.
Love this. Power of prayer. Revival. Restore this broken society.
“Pray without ceasing.” (1 Thessalonians 5:17)
If there is a common thread that should run through the life of a Christian each day, it’s prayer. Now, that doesn’t mean you refuse to speak to anyone else or that you drive down the road with your eyes closed. But it does mean being ever ready and willing to go before God. Nothing is too small or too big for God to care about. He created you, so why wouldn’t He care about you? You should bathe your life in prayer. Pray for wisdom, peace, and patience. Pray for your marriage, your job, and your children. Pray for other people and circumstances, even when the situation may seem hopeless. Give every person and everything in your life to God in prayer — and they will be in the best of hands!
Don’t talk to me. Don’t bother me. I’ll end up crying, trying to explain my point. I need to vent to people who wont tell me, “When…If… it doesn’t work out, don’t come running to me.”
Idk what I want to do. I have an idea but one stupid little thing, which is actually kind of a big thing, is messing everything up. It is standing in the way of a 100% decision and I just don’t know. I’m realizing a passion, but taking this risk is pretty huge and would be a waste of my time, money, and hard effort.
I don’t want to hear what some people say, even though I know, very well, it is a possibility. Anyways, thanks to a very insightful and delicious dinner at Olive Garden, I have just strengthened my desire but one factor still stands in the way, and I don’t think that it will ever go away.
I need to be 110% sure about this, which I still am far from….Lord, I pray that you open my eyes to this. Whatever you want for me, help me to see it through with my hope set in You. Give me something, something to let me know that this is what I am supposed to do, this is what I truly want…All in your name, Amen.
Yes it is. But we have to strive to be better!
