02/01 Ephesians 6:10-18
10 A final word: Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11Put on all of God’s armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies of the devil. 12 For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore, put on every piece of God’s armor so you will be able to resist the enemy in the time of evil. Then after the battle you will still be standing firm. 14 Stand your ground, putting on the belt of truth and the body armor of God’s righteousness. 15 For shoes, put on the peace that comes from the Good News so that you will be fully prepared. 16 In addition to all of these, hold up the shield of faith to stop the fiery arrows of the devil. 17 Put on salvation as your helmet, and take the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.18 Pray in the Spirit at all times and on every occasion. Stay alert and be persistent in your prayers for all believers everywhere. 

STRONG
We are weak. Jesus is Strong. Focus on Jesus. Your strength is in Him.

1/31            Mark 6:4

4 Then Jesus told them, “A prophet is honored everywhere except in his own hometown and among his relatives and his own family.” 

PROPHET

Our great King Jesus was a prophet from the Father.  
He said He will bring us into God’s family and walked to the cross.  
His death secured our life.  Life like God’s life.  
Jesus said He would reign forever.  He does. 
He is the greatest of prophets because He speaks for the Father.  
Jesus is Lord.  He loves us and has made provision for each on of us.  
We belong to Him and will be with Him forever.  

01/30          Ephesians 2:14

14 For Christ himself has brought peace to us. He united Jews and Gentiles into one people when, in his own body on the cross, he broke down the wall of hostility that separated us. 

PEACE

The world cannot give us peace.  Only Jesus can give peace. 
He assures us of our salvation.  A free grace gift!
He provides assurance of eternal existence with Him.  
He will never leave us.  Nothing can separate us from Him.  
We have peace in Him.  Jesus is our peace.  

01/29          1 Timothy 1:1

1 This letter is from Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus, appointed by the command of God our Savior and Christ Jesus, who gives us hope.

OUR HOPE

Jesus is our hope.  In the middle of the pain of life He gives joy.  
His security walks with us.  The Holy Spirit leads us.  
Jesus is always close by.  He is thinking of each one of us all the time.  
We are of supreme importance to Jesus.  He is our hope, our king, our life. 

01/28          John 8:36

36 So if the Son sets you free, you are truly free. 

ONE WHO SETS FREE

Stop struggling in your daily walk.  Jesus has set you free.  
Do not let evil win.  Ask Jesus to deliver you from evil. 
Indeed, ask Jesus to keep you away from evil.  
Seek His face, His presence, and His leadership. 
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
Jesus will still lead me and He will never let me go.  

01/27          Isaiah 60:16

MIGHTY ONE

Jesus is Lord.  He is mighty.  He is able.  
He is our righteousness.  He is our salvation.  
We are hid with Christ in God.  The Lord is good to us. 
Jesus loves you and me.  

01/26          John 1:41

41 Andrew went to find his brother, Simon, and told him, “We have found the Messiah” which means “Christ” . 

MESSIAH

Jesus is the Messiah.  He is the Holy Son of God.  
He came to Earth to show us what God is like.  God is love. 
He has come in reconciliation.  Whosoever believes in Him shall be saved.  
He came not to judge us, although we are great sinners-everyone of us.
He came to save us from our sin and reconcile us to God the Father.  Jesus is Lord.  

01/25          1 Timothy 2:5

5 For, There is one God and one Mediator who can reconcile God and humanity—the man Christ Jesus. 

MEDIATOR

While we were still dead in our trespasses He died for us.  
He is seated at the right hand of God.  He knows our weakness.  
Jesus provides forgiveness and eternal security for those who believe in Him. 

01/24          Philippians 2:9-11

9 Therefore, God elevated him to the place of highest honor and gave him the name above all other names, 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth,11 and every tongue declare that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. 

LORD OF ALL

Jesus is Lord of all.  The greatest servant.  The greatest sacrifice.  
He died that we might have life.  He provides us His righteousness.  
We are brought into the family of God.  
He is the Creator, Sustainer, and He loves us.  
He is Lord of all. 

01/23          Revelation 5:5

5 But one of the twenty-four elders said to me, “Stop weeping! Look, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the heir to David’s throne, has won the victory. He is worthy to open the scroll and its seven seals.”

LION OF THE TRIBE OF JUDAH

Ruler.  Leader.  House of power and strength.  
Jesus is the Lion.  He is the One come from God to lead His people home. 
We belong to Him, but His leadership is the leadership of a servant.  
His love for us is inexplicable.  He is love and He cares for you and me.  
One day He is coming back in judgment.  We will stand before Him.  
My prayer for you is that you will stand before Him as your Lord and Savior.
