Devotions

“But the LORD said to my father David, Whereas it was in your heart to build a temple for My name, you did well that it was in your heart. Nevertheless you shall not build the temple, but your son who will come from your body, he shall build the temple for My name.”

1 Kings 8:18-19

Don’t get frustrated when the LORD puts something on our heart to do for Him and we can’t! It may be on our heart, but it might be for us to pray for someone else to do, so we get to help prepare the way!

“The voice of one crying in the wilderness; Prepare the way of the LORD; Make straight in the desert A highway for our God.”

Isaiah 40:3

We all get to be part of what the LORD is doing, no matter how big or small our part is!

“This is the LORD’s doing; It is marvelous in our eyes.”

Psalm 118:23

We need to remember it isn’t about us, it’s all about the LORD and what He is doing! So let’s do our part to glorify the LORD today!

“For the cloud of the LORD was above the tabernacle by day, and fire was over it by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeys.”

Exodus 40:38

We can see this in our lives today, no matter what situation we may be in, the LORD has us covered day and night. We all need to be reminded of that from time to time.

“O GOD the LORD, the strength of my salvation, You have covered my head in the day of battle.”

Psalm 140:7

Life is full of battles, what we need to realize is the LORD has us covered, we just need to show up.

“Then all this assembly shall know that the LORD does not save with sword and spear; for the battle is the LORD’s and He will give you into our hands.”

1 Samuel 17:47

So like David going up against Goliath, we need to not look at the giant, but instead look to the LORD! Knowing He has us covered and He will take down the giants. All we have to do is show up and the LORD will take care of the rest! Have a blessed day knowing He has you covered.

“Of the blue, purple, and scarlet thread they made garments of ministry, for ministering in the holy place, and made the holy garments for Aaron, as the LORD commanded Moses.”

Exodus 39:1

Do we set ourselves aside to be holy? Do we try to stay clean for ministry? Realize, the LORD saved us and desires to use us for His ministry!

“For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s.”

1 Corinthians 6:20

We as believers really need to be set apart, knowing that we are being watched by the people around us! So, what we say, what we post and what we do people are seeing! We need to ask ourselves does it glorify the LORD?

“But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.”

1 Peter 2:9

As you go through your day, know this people are watching and listening to you and even more so today, because of social media, so watch what you post! Have a blessed day knowing you are robed in His holy garments!

“And you shall make for them linen trousers to cover their nakedness; they shall reach from the waist to the thighs.”

Exodus 28:42

Realize, at this time pagan priests did most things in the nude! Like the world now sin is out in the open uncovered and celebrated! Our LORD wants us covered and covered by Him!

“Look to Me, and be saved, All you ends of the earth! For I am God, and there is no other.”

Isaiah 45:22

We need repentance and we need to be praying for the people around us to repent!

“If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.”

2 Chronicles 7:14

If we want to see revival, we need to see repentance first and it really starts with us!

“Come now, and let us reason together, Says the LORD, Through your sins are like scarlet, They shall be as white as snow: Through they are red like crimson, They shall be as wool.”

Isaiah 1:18

Today, call to the LORD and know He has you covered! Have a blessed day knowing you are saved and let’s share that blessing with those around you!
