Thursday 

It is easy to see what is wrong with someone else.

It is

admirable

to focus on what is

praiseworthy about someone else. 

Normally

God doesn't allow us

to see

the sin and imperfections of others

in order

to

confront them

or even to

help them.

Most of the time,

we see

those imperfections

in order

to

pray for them.

May our desire to show compassion

overwhelm

our desire to criticize.

Dear Lord,

You are my Strength, and you are my Redeemer.

Increase my desire to be kind and compassionate.

Lord, remind me to yield to kindness.

Help me to choose a tender heart toward the mistakes and sins of others.

Lord, I pray that my desire to show compassion will grow to overwhelm my desire to criticize.

In Jesus' name I pray,

Amen

Important note:

God does tell us that....

there are times

when we need to admonish

or correct someone

about their behavior or attitude. 

In those times, may we ask God 

to fill us with his love 

before we open our mouth.

Friday 

Please join me in saying...

"God wants to do

great things

in me, for me, and through me."

* * *

Explaining the Great Things:

Some are about accomplishing tasks,

some involve blessing people,

and

some involve gaining more

self-control

over my actions.

Prayer for God's Divine Purpose in your Life

By Gary Rich

God Almighty,

You created me and put me in this time in history for a purpose.
I don't want to go another day without touching and gaining understanding about that purpose.

You want and need to do something in my heart. I don't want to go on without that being fulfilled in me.

God, speak to me. Speak to my heart like only you can
and
according to the way
you know I will be able to receive.
     
Give me revelation,
give me wisdom
and
give me understanding of your
divine will, purpose and plans for my life.

Please give me the grace, the ability and the revelation I need to be totally surrendered to you.

Please answer me, Lord, according to the way you've called and anointed me. Let me do your work.

Please set me apart and save me from sin, from my world's system, and from the works of the enemy. So that your will and purposes can be fulfilled in my life.
     
Yes Lord, send me. Use me. Set me apart. Make me a vessel you can use.

Make me a part of your army. Strengthen and anoint me so I can stand against the darkness in these last days. I surrender to your will, Lord. I am yours and you are mine,

Amen
