Psalm 37:23 (NLT)
23 The LORD directs the steps of the godly. He delights in every detail of their lives.
Observation:
What determine the kind of day you will have? Is it determined by people, places, or things?
Who directs your steps? Who controls your life?
The child of God, who is walking in the wisdom of God, can be encouraged by this good word that our steps are ordered by our Christ, and not our circumstances.
Our Christ is so much greater, and powerful than our circumstances. So, lift up your head today, and rejoice in the Lord.
Allow the Son of God, who lives in you, to shine brightly in you, and through you for the glory of God, and the blessing of others.
Matthew 5:14-16 (NLT)
14 “You are the light of the world—like a city on a hilltop that cannot be hidden.
15 No one lights a lamp and then puts it under a basket. Instead, a lamp is placed on a stand, where it gives light to everyone in the house.
16 In the same way, let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father.
Prayer:
Father God, hallowed be Your name. Father, we are so grateful for the amazing presence, peace, and power of God who lives in the lives of Your children.
Father, I pray that we who are Your people will allow the light of Jesus to shine in us, and through us today. O, how this dark world needs light. In the mighty name of Jesus we pray, Amen.

Ephesians 6:10-11 (ESV)
10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might.
11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil.
