Make Plans for the Next Victory
TODAY'S SCRIPTURE
"Now therefore, give me this mountain of which the Lord spoke in that day"
(Joshua 14:12, NKJV)
TODAY'S WORD
In the Bible, Caleb helped lead the people of Israel into their Promised Land. But I love that Caleb didn't just stop there. When he was 80 years old, he said, "God, give me another mountain." He was saying, "God, give me something else to do. Give me another assignment." Notice, he was planning on living out his life in victory. He could have said, "God, just let me retire. Man, my back's hurting. I can hardly see anymore. Medicare wouldn't pay that latest prescription. I'm so aggravated." No, he was strong. He was energetic; he was ready for the next challenge.
Friend, no matter how old or how young you are, God has another assignment for you. You wouldn't be here if God didn't have a purpose for you. I believe that this next year is going to be your best ever. Make plans for the next victory. Make plans to increase in influence, abundance, and favor. Choose today to live full of joy, peace, strength, and health; and take a step of faith into the life of victory He has in store for you!
A PRAYER FOR TODAY
"Father in heaven, thank You for creating me and giving my life purpose.
Help me discover the gifts and talents You've placed within me so that I can use them to Your glory and move forward into the life of victory You have prepared for me. In Jesus' Name, Amen."

He is Strong in You
TODAY'S SCRIPTURE
"And the Holy Spirit helps us in our weakness…"
(Romans 8:26 NLT)
TODAY'S WORD
Sometimes, people get distracted by what they consider to be a disadvantage or weakness in their lives. It may be something about their personality or looks that they don't like. Or maybe they've been through an unfair situation: a divorce, a bad business deal, or a bad break. We all have things that can feel like disadvantages; things that make it harder on us. It may even be a physical handicap where you can't get around like you used to.
But just because you have a "disadvantage," just because you've been through a tough time, doesn't mean you're supposed to sit back and settle where you are. God still has something great for you to do! He wants to show Himself strong in and through you. The Holy Spirit wants to help you when you feel weak. If you will stay in faith and not get negative toward yourself or your future, then God can take what you think is a liability and turn it into an asset. What you think is a disadvantage God will turn around to be an advantage so you can move forward into the abundant life He has for you!
A PRAYER FOR TODAY
"Father in heaven, today I give You all that I am. I invite You into the weak places in my life so that You can turn them into strengths. Thank You for working in my life and filling me with faith and expectancy. In Jesus' Name, Amen."

Make the Right Plans
TODAY'S SCRIPTURE
"May He give you the desire of your heart and make all your plans succeed"
(Psalm 20:4, NIV)
TODAY'S WORD
The Bible tells us that true faith has actions with it. A lot of times people say they believe one way, but with their actions, they're doing just the opposite. We have to understand that faith will work in either direction. I know some people make plans to get the flu. They talk about it and say, "Every year I get the flu." Or, "It's going to be bad this year." They expect it and a few months later, they've got it. Their faith worked. They believed, they expected, they made plans, and they got it. But instead of making plans for the worst, why don't you make plans for the best. Why don't you make plans for the Word of God to come to pass in your life? The scripture says, "No weapon formed against us is going to prosper." "A thousand may fall at my side, ten thousand at my right hand; but it will not come near my dwelling."
Today, make plans according to the Word of God. As you make right plans, you'll see right things come to pass in your life. You'll rise up higher and enjoy the blessings God has in store for you!
A PRAYER FOR TODAY
"Father God, I confess that I need You today. Search my heart. Help me see any area where my faith is working in the wrong direction. I desire to make plans in agreement with You so that I can partake of the good things You have in store for me. In Jesus' Name, Amen."

Prince of Peace
TODAY'S SCRIPTURE
"For unto us a child is born, unto us a Son is given; and the government will be upon His shoulder, and He will be called" Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace""
(Isaiah 9:6a)
TODAY'S WORD
The Bible calls Jesus the Prince of Peace. That means He is the ruler of peace. He is the ultimate peace. The peace He gives to us is not the peace of the world. His peace is permanent. It never changes, and it can never be taken away from us.
It's interesting that the word "peace" literally means "to set at one again." In other words, when we are one with the Father, when we line up our thoughts, our words, and our actions with Him, we will experience His peace in our lives. Anytime you find that you don't have peace on the inside of your heart about something, an uneasiness, that's a sign that you should stop and pray and make sure you are in line with God's plan for your life. Remember, His plans are for your good. He leads you by peace and fills you with His joy. When you choose His ways, you will live in His peace and experience His hand of blessing in every area of your life.
A PRAYER FOR TODAY
"Father in heaven, thank You for filling me with Your peace. Have Your way in my heart and remove anything that displeases You. Help me to clearly hear Your voice and walk in Your ways. In Jesus’ Name, Amen."

Unto Us
TODAY'S SCRIPTURE
"…"For unto us a child is born, unto us a Son is given; and the government will be upon His shoulder…"
(Isaiah 9:6a)
TODAY'S WORD
When Jesus came to the earth, He brought with Him everything you need to be empowered to live a life of victory. He came as a little baby, but He represented all authority in heaven and earth. When you choose to serve Him, you have access to all of His resources. You have access to His peace, power, authority, provision, joy, and strength. He brought all of this to us when He came to earth. Unto us a child is born…unto us victory is given. Unto us peace is given. Unto us provision is given. Unto us hope and healing are given. Unto us eternal life is given!
Whatever you need today, remember, when Jesus came into the world, He made a way for every one of your needs to be met spiritually, emotionally, and physically. Surrender your life to Him and receive all the spiritual blessings He has in store for you!
A PRAYER FOR TODAY
"Father in heaven, thank You for sending Your Son, Jesus so that I could be free to live an abundant life in You. Fill me with the revelation of Your love and everything that You have for me. In Jesus' Name. Amen."
