Today's Good News

NOVEMBER 22 – TALK

11/22               Philippians 4:6-7

6 Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. 7 Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.

TALK

Talk with the Father.  Talk a lot with Him.  Tell Him everything that is on your mind.  Do it methodically.  Keep up a conversation list.  You will discover that as you talk with the lord a lot, you will grow in your confidence that He hears you and knows what is going on in your life.  With that conversation list keep an answer list that details what God says.  I would encourage you to only list His actions.  Actions speak louder than words and the Lord is never shy about His activity in your life.  After a while you will realize that your life is gripped by peace that emanates from the depths of your heart.  God loves you and you know it in a very real way.  You will also notice that over a period of time your conversation becomes less and less about you and more about those around you:  their needs, their protection, their wisdom, their forgiveness and all of those things that you have in abundance.  God is good. 

 

 

NOVEMBER 21 – SPEAK

11/21               Psalm 9:1

1 I will praise you, LORD, with all my heart; I will tell of all the marvelous things you have done.

SPEAK

Speak the Gospel everywhere you go.  Tell of the good things of God.  Tell of His loving kindness.  Tell everyone you meet about the good things the Lord does for you.  Jesus loves you. 

NOVEMBER 20 – SHARE

11/20               Nehemiah 12:46-47

46 The custom of having choir directors to lead the choirs in hymns of praise and thanksgiving to God began long ago in the days of David and Asaph.  47So now, in the days of Zerubbabel and of Nehemiah, all Israel brought a daily supply of food for the singers, the gatekeepers, and the Levites. The Levites, in turn, gave a portion of what they received to the priests, the descendants of Aaron.

SHARE

Share what you have with those who are in need.  When you share you are doing so for the Lord.  He will see and will bless you.  Do not fear but instead rejoice for the Lord is on your side and He will never forsake you.  The Lord is your strength so trust Him. 

 

 

NOVEMBER 19 – WORLD

11/19               Jeremiah 30:19

19 There will be joy and songs of thanksgiving, and I will multiply my people, not diminish them; I will honor them, not despise them.

WORLD

The World does not know Jesus but you do.  The World is filled with evil and chaos but you are filled with joy and purpose.  Know that the Lord is good and He will give to you only those things that are good for you.  Learn His rules and obey them.  His rules will equip you to stand against evil and chaos.  The Lord is good, so you rejoice and thank you.

11/16               2 Chronicles 5:13

13 The trumpeters and singers performed together in unison to praise and give thanks to the LORD . Accompanied by trumpets, cymbals, and other instruments, they raised their voices and praised the LORD with these words: “He is good! His faithful love endures forever!” At that moment a thick cloud filled the Temple of the LORD . 

PRESENT

God is present.  His Holy Spirit is always with us.  He knows everything about us.  Do not fear for Jesus is always with you.  His love is more than you can imagine.  His watch care over you is more than adequate for it is full and complete.  Know that the Lord is God and His love for you just fits your need.  God loves you.

NOVEMBER 14 – JESUS

11/14               Isaiah 44:6-8

6This is what the LORD says—Israel’s King and Redeemer, the LORD of Heaven’s Armies: “I am the First and the Last; there is no other God.  7 Who is like me? Let him step forward and prove to you his power. Let him do as I have done since ancient times when I established a people and explained its future. 8Do not tremble; do not be afraid. Did I not proclaim my purposes for you long ago? You are my witnesses—is there any other God? No! There is no other Rock—not one!” 

JESUS

Jesus is God’s everything.  He is the beginning and the end and everything in between.  When you spend time with Jesus you are spending time with God.  Jesus loves you.  He died for you.  This very moment He is interceding for you.  Jesus is Lord.  Every day is a good day.
