Thank You For Watching! "But godliness with contentment is great gain." —1 Timothy 6:6 - Thoughts on Today's Verse What determines our financial worth? Do we compute it in terms of dollars, possessions, real estate, or investments? Paul reminded Timothy that ultimate gain, the gain of incalculable value, is really determined by a straightforward formula: genuine net worth = (godly character) X (contentment). What would happen if we realized that the truly wealthy were those with godly character who found contentment in Jesus regardless of their circumstances? My Prayer... O LORD God, the one from whom every blessing flows, readjust my values from the greed of this world to a holy set of financial convictions — true gain is found in godly character and genuine contentment. Conform my character to the godliness that Jesus demonstrated in his daily life. Teach me the contentment that can only be found in you. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen. ----------------------------- Background music: SELAH - DEEP INSTRUMENTAL WORSHIP

Thank You For Watching! "God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea." —Psalm 46:1-2 - Thoughts on Today's Verse God promised to be our refuge and strength. Our challenge is to trust that we are not alone or abandoned when emotional earthquakes, disasters, and tidal waves overwhelm our lives. God is not only our protector and helper. He is with us even when our world seems to be crashing around us. He will rescue us from death or deliver us through death to himself. He will deliver us from evil or empower us to overcome evil. We do not have to fear whatever may come because God is our refuge and strength! My Prayer... Holy God, I pray for those who are in the middle of life's earthquakes today. You know those for whom I am concerned. You know I care about their struggles which are too big for me to mitigate and too painful for me to truly bring comfort. I ask you to bless and be with them now and deliver them quickly. You are our only true hope, and Jesus is our only sure redeemer. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen. ----------------------------- Background music: SELAH - DEEP INSTRUMENTAL WORSHIP

Thank You For Watching! "Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near." —Philippians 4:4-5 - Thoughts on Today's Verse Because the Lord is near, we can rejoice and treat others with gentleness. He is near because he lives in us through his Spirit. He is near because his coming is at hand. He is near when we gather with other believers, serve others in need, or share the Gospel with friends and people of different cultures. The Lord is near because he has promised to be with us and never forsake us. We can be joyful and tender because Jesus lives in us, works through us, and is coming for us! Nothing is more infectious than a joyous and kind person who knows the Lord IS near! My Prayer... Father, I am thrilled to know that I will never be alone. Thank you for sending Jesus to die for my sins. Thank you for sending Jesus to join me when I meet with other believers, serve others in his name, and share the Gospel with those who do not know him. Please let the abiding joy I feel from his presence be evident in how I live and serve others. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen. ----------------------------- Background music: SELAH - DEEP INSTRUMENTAL WORSHIP

Thank You For Watching! "I will exalt you, my God the King; I will praise your name for ever and ever. Every day I will praise you and extol your name for ever and ever." —Psalm 145:1-2 - Thoughts on Today's Verse The way we praise God forever and honor our pledge to give him glory for all the days of our life is pretty simple: we start by doing it today. As long as we praise God today, the forever takes care of itself! So as we commit to exalt the name of God and praise him for all eternity, let's remember the place it starts: we praise God today — not only in the things we say but also in how we live! My Prayer... Mighty God and loving Father, today I want to tell you how marvelous and wonderful I believe you to be. You are righteous, faithful, holy, and merciful. You are tender and loving, yet magnificent in glory and incomparable in strength. You have redeemed me from my sin and given me hope beyond my death. You have filled my life with good people and promised me a home with you. You, O God, are without peer or rival in your majesty and might, grace and mercy. You are my King, my awesome and loving Father. In Jesus' name, I praise you today and forever. Amen. ----------------------------- Background music: SELAH - DEEP INSTRUMENTAL WORSHIP

Thank You For Watching! "Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. Instead, you ought to say, "If it is the Lord's will, we will live and do this or that." —James 4:14-15 - Thoughts on Today's Verse "If the Lord wills!" Do you do short-term and long-range planning? I do. But my planning always has an invisible asterisk: "If Lord, this is your will and timing, please help me complete these plans." I don't know about you, but God has shown me time and again that if I am open to him, his timing is always better than my planning. Does that mean I quit planning? Nope. I plan with prayer, asking for wisdom and the Holy Spirit to help me find God's timing to know and do his will in his timing (James 1:5-6; Ephesians 5:15-18). Life is too short not to plan. Life is too important not to plan with prayer and seek to be led by the Holy Spirit! My Prayer... Not my will, Father, but yours be done... this day and all the days of my life that follow. I want to walk in your will and follow your timing. In Jesus' holy name, I ask this. Amen. ----------------------------- Background music: SELAH - DEEP INSTRUMENTAL WORSHIP

Thank You For Watching! "Man is like a breath; his days are like a fleeting shadow." —Psalm 144:4 - Thoughts on Today's Verse Time is so precious — time with our families, children, parents, friends, and brothers and sisters in Christ. How do you invest your time? Where do you invest it? You know, our time is really more valuable than the money we invest. Once the present time and its opportunities are gone, they can't be reclaimed. So as you begin each day, ask God that you will be able to "know the time," to see it for what it is, and to use it for its greatest good. Time passes quickly, and like the shadows of early evening, it's not long before it is absorbed into the gathering darkness of night. My Prayer Eternal God, please give me the wisdom to use the time given me today to do what is best, right, good, and profitable. I want to invest my time in what is truly enduring and redemptive. Please help me use my time to influence and bless all those with whom I interact so that they are brought closer to you. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen. ----------------------------- Background music: SELAH - DEEP INSTRUMENTAL WORSHIP

Thank You For Watching! "Therefore each of you must put off falsehood and speak truthfully to your neighbor, for we are all members of one body." —Ephesians 4:25 - Thoughts on Today's Verse Isn't it terrible when one part of a body sends the wrong message to other parts of the same body? This happens with diseases and physical ailments. The results can be disastrous. Paul reminds us that dishonesty in the Body of Christ is just as damaging. Our words must not only be kind, but they must be truthful and beneficial as well. - The Prayer Guard my heart against duplicity and my lips from what is false, O LORD. May my words be true to your character and grace, without deceit or guile. Teach me, dear Father, to speak in ways that bring your blessing, truth, and peace to those who hear my words. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen. ----------------------------- Background music: SELAH - DEEP INSTRUMENTAL WORSHIP

More than just the words of a song, these words are true beyond our understanding. To be so powerful, vast, and marvelous yet still know and bless us with his personal attention and care is beyond understanding. Yet God sent Jesus to remind us that he is not only God Almighty but also Immanuel, God with us! - The Prayer Thank you, dear God, for being mighty, for being gracious, and for being near. Most of all, Father, thank you for being you! In Jesus' name, I ask you to receive my thanks and praise. Amen. ----------------------------- Background music: SELAH - DEEP INSTRUMENTAL WORSHIP

Thank You For Watching! "Learn to do right! Seek justice, encourage the oppressed." —Isaiah 1:17 - Thoughts on Today's Verse We find it easy to be incensed when wrong is done to a friend. We are ready to fight injustice when someone we love has been wronged. However, God reminds us that our worship means little if we do not also protect those who are weak, marginalized, oppressed, and forgotten. It's not just our friends who need our help; it's also those who have no friends who need us. "To do right" doesn't just mean being a good person and avoiding evil in our sanctified little enclaves; it also means caring, comforting, and encouraging those no one else wants to notice. - The Prayer Forgive me, dear Father, for being selfish with your love and grace. I confess that I often find it easy to stay near those who are like me — who look like me, think like me, and dress like me. I know that many in the world around me do not have a friend, much less a defender. Open my eyes, dear LORD, to see those in my world that you would have me protect, encourage, and bless. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen. ----------------------------- Background music: SELAH - DEEP INSTRUMENTAL WORSHIP

Do this so that their work will be a joy, not a burden, for that would be of no benefit to you." —Hebrews 13:17 - Thoughts on Today's Verse We often fail to realize that one of the best ways we can improve Kingdom leadership is by being better followers. Kingdom leadership means that leaders must answer to God for how they have led. Kingdom citizenship means that we will be held responsible for obeying and blessing our leaders. What have you done to show your love, respect, and support for your church leaders lately? - The Prayer Almighty King, all authority and dominion belong to you. You alone are worthy of power and the right to rule. Please bless our leaders at church so that they may lead by serving and following Christ. Please empower me to follow their leadership in ways that exalt the cause of Christ and bless the leaders in your Kingdom. May my life never be a burden to them or an embarrassment to you.

Thank You For Watching! "Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ." —Ephesians 5:21 - Thoughts on Today's Verse Worship on Sunday can be inspiring and uplifting. Worship in everyday life can be exhilarating. Worship in our relationships can be transformational, yet genuine worship always requires that we give up our ways, our wills, and our wants. We must choose to learn to live for others. If we truly live with Christ Jesus as our Lord, we will live as he did. We will submit to others to serve them for their good and to meet their needs. Sometimes that means being tender. Other times that means being tough. And it always means living to God's glory. - The Prayer O LORD God Almighty, I find it hard to submit myself and my desires to anyone else. I find it all too easy to see things only from my point of view. I catch myself looking out for my interests and not the welfare of others. Please fill me with your Spirit more mightily so that my life displays your love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, faithfulness, and self-control. In Jesus' name, I ask for your divine help so that my life displays more of Jesus' character. Amen. ----------------------------- Background music: SELAH - DEEP INSTRUMENTAL WORSHIP

Thank You For Watching! "Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ." —Ephesians 4:15 - Thoughts on Today's Verse Truthful words are accurate. Words spoken in love can be a blessing. But truth spoken in love is redemptive: this kind of speech blesses those who hear it and matures those who speak it. While speaking the truth in love is often not easy, it's worth it! Look at God and see how painful it was to speak his Word in love by sending Jesus. But in the process of that one sacrificial Word, he has saved us and revealed his heart of grace, mercy, and love. - The Prayer Holy God, may the words I speak be truthful and loving. Please forgive me when I have told the "painful truth" to win arguments, to hurt feelings, or to impress others. Please forgive me for the times I exaggerated, distorted, or lied. I want my words to be simple and tender, truthful and loving. I want others to see your grace in the way I speak to them. In the name of my Savior, Jesus, I pray. Amen. ----------------------------- Background music: SELAH - DEEP INSTRUMENTAL WORSHIP

Thank You For Watching! "Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen." —Ephesians 4:29 - Thoughts on Today's Verse We can use our words to be cute. We can use our words to appear impressive. We can use our words to win arguments. We can use our words to defend ourselves. We can use our words to lie and distort. We can use our words to do many things, but God wants us to use our words to bless. So when we speak, if our words do not bless and benefit those to whom we direct them, then we are to simply not say anything. Grandma was right. "If you can't say something nice, then don't say anything at all." - The Prayer Give me wisdom today, dear God, to speak words that bless my family, my co-workers, and those I meet. I want to be truthful, loving, kind, and merciful when I open my mouth and speak. May the words of my mouth be used in your service and to your glory today, dear LORD. In Jesus' name I pray.

Thank You For Watching! "The soothing tongue is a tree of life, but a perverse tongue crushes the spirit." —Proverbs 15:4 - Thoughts on Today's Verse Words are powerful. Communicators know this. Negotiators know this. Deep down, you know this. Words have blessed you and words have devastated you. The healing that comes from a kind and tender word is precious. The destruction of a cruel taunt or a well-told deception is crushing. To have such power is amazing. To use this awesome power found in our speech is an awesome responsibility. Words do have the power to give life, hope, and peace when offered in love to honor Jesus. Let's speak that word today! - The Prayer O Father, I want my words to be a blessing today. I want them to reflect your grace. I want them to bring healing to the hurting and comfort to the grieving. I want them to be tender with the broken. I want them to be honorable and truthful in difficult circumstances. I want them to be upright when the language around me is crude. Through your Spirit, use my speech to bless others and bring you praise. In the name of Jesus, your ultimate Word, I pray.

"Because your love is better than life, my lips will glorify you." —Psalm 63:3 - Thoughts on Today's Verse This verse expresses the deep love and gratitude that the psalmist feels for God, recognizing that God's love and goodness are more valuable to him than anything else in life. The psalmist is so moved by God's love that he can't help but give praise and thanks for it. This verse encourages us to reflect on the many blessings in our lives and to express our gratitude to God for his loving kindness towards us. - The Prayer Dear God, Thank you for your loving kindness, which is better than life itself. Your love is always present in our lives, guiding us, sustaining us, and bringing us joy and peace. We praise you for your love, and for all the blessings you have bestowed upon us. Your grace is truly a gift, and we are grateful for it every day. Help us to love you with an undying love, just as this verse in Psalm 63:3 encourages us to do. May our hearts always overflow with gratitude for all that you have done for us. In Jesus' name we pray, Amen. ----------------------------- Background music: SELAH - DEEP INSTRUMENTAL WORSHIP

"I urge you, brothers and sisters, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, to join me in my struggle by praying to God for me." —Romans 15:30 - Thoughts on Today's Verse This verse highlights the importance of intercessory prayer and encourages believers to support one another in their spiritual journeys. Paul is asking for prayer support as he faces challenges in his ministry, and is emphasizing the power of prayer and the role of the Holy Spirit in bringing people together in love and support. This verse reminds us of the importance of coming together in prayer for one another and being a source of encouragement for each other in our walk with Christ. - The Prayer Dear God, we come to you today with open hearts, asking for your grace and love to be upon us as we strive to love Jesus with an undying love. Help us to keep our focus on him and to grow in our understanding of your truth. We ask for your guidance as we pray for those who are facing struggles in their faith. May they feel the strength of your presence and the power of the Holy Spirit as they face their challenges. We ask that you would be with us always, giving us the wisdom and courage to live out our faith with boldness and compassion.

Then the LORD God Almighty will be with you, just as you say he is." —Amos 5:14 - Thoughts on Today's Verse Isn't it amazing how many people claim God is on their side. God has been "claimed" by those seeking to enforce slavery, practice prejudice, lie, bribe officials, practice hypocrisy, force injustice on the powerless, and practice "ethnic cleansing." But God makes the test pretty simple: do what is good, seek after the good, or you're not related to me! In the words of the prophet Amos, that meant equity for all peoples in court, in the marketplace, and in the place of worship. If we're claiming God is on our side, then we'd better draw close to the side of God, the side of good, justice, and mercy as God defines them! - The Prayer Precious and Almighty God, full of mercy and lover of justice and fairness, I praise you for your concern for those who are often forgotten. By the presence of your Holy Spirit within me, convict me when I side with evil and oppression and stir me to work for the salvation of others, of my culture, and of my world — not just eternal salvation, but salvation from evil and hatred that are so prevalent. May your Kingdom dawn more brightly in our world as it does in your heart and will for us. In Jesus' name. Amen. ----------------------------- Background music: SELAH - DEEP INSTRUMENTAL WORSHIP
