Psalms 46
English Standard Version
God Is Our Fortress
To the choirmaster. Of the Sons of Korah. According to Alamoth.[a] A Song.
1 God is our refuge and strength, a very present[b] help in trouble.
2 Therefore we will not fear though the earth gives way, though the mountains be moved into the heart of the sea,
3 though its waters roar and foam, though the mountains tremble at its swelling. Selah
4 There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy habitation of the Most High.
5 God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved; God will help her when morning dawns.
6 The nations rage, the kingdoms totter; he utters his voice, the earth melts.
7 The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. Selah
8 Come, behold the works of the Lord, how he has brought desolations on the earth.
9 He makes wars cease to the end of the earth; he breaks the bow and shatters the spear; he burns the chariots with fire.
10 “Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!”
11 The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. Selah
Luke 11:1-36
English Standard Version
The Lord's Prayer
1 Now Jesus[a] was praying in a certain place, and when he finished, one of his disciples said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray, as John taught his disciples.” 2 And he said to them, “When you pray, say:
“Father, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come. 3 Give us each day our daily bread,[b] 4 and forgive us our sins, for we ourselves forgive everyone who is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation.”
5 And he said to them, “Which of you who has a friend will go to him at midnight and say to him, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves, 6 for a friend of mine has arrived on a journey, and I have nothing to set before him’; 7 and he will answer from within, ‘Do not bother me; the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed. I cannot get up and give you anything’? 8 I tell you, though he will not get up and give him anything because he is his friend, yet because of his impudence[c] he will rise and give him whatever he needs. 9 And I tell you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 10 For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened. 11 What father among you, if his son asks for[d] a fish, will instead of a fish give him a serpent; 12 or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion? 13 If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!”
The Light in You
33 “No one after lighting a lamp puts it in a cellar or under a basket, but on a stand, so that those who enter may see the light. 34 Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eye is healthy, your whole body is full of light, but when it is bad, your body is full of darkness. 35 Therefore be careful lest the light in you be darkness. 36 If then your whole body is full of light, having no part dark, it will be wholly bright, as when a lamp with its rays gives you light.”
ObservationGOD is teaching me today to keep praying for the things that I have been praying for. What an encouragement!!! That after HE tells me to keep my eyes on HIM that I should still keep praying for the things HE has put in my heart. Stephen, Benita, Janine Rose, Sandro, Carlo, Kyle and all the people to be filled with HIS HOLY SPIRIT because HE will answer me as I persistently pray because HE is a good and faithful FATHER. HE is teaching me to take out any darkness in my heart so that I can be a light that shines in the dark world.
ApplicationI am encouraged today to keep praying for the things GOD put in my heart and in my Spirit. If I only allow GOD to have HIS way in me, I will not panic and pray for the wrong things like asking GOD to remove the feelings that I may have for a certain person. That my heart and focus should always be on GOD and that I shouldn't disregard the things that HE allows in my heart but I should know how to maneuver through them and use them to fulfill what GOD wants me to do. Because the feelings are a driving force, I just need to use the force as an energy to pray consistently what HE wants to happen in people's lives. Without love, without desire nothing moves, the desires is moving me to pray and it is a good thing says GOD.
