Today's Good News

APRIL 3 – GOD

04/03          1 Peter 1:5

And through your faith, God is protecting you by his power until you receive this salvation, which is ready to be revealed on the last day for all to see. 

GOD

God is protecting you.  Today.  Where you are.  Whatever you are facing.  God is protecting you.  We believe that by faith and through the power of the Holy Spirit.  God is protecting you. 

 

APRIL 2 – MERCY

04/02          1 Peter 1:3 

All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. It is by his great mercy that we have been born again, because God raised Jesus Christ from the dead. Now we live with great expectation, 4 and we have a priceless inheritance—an inheritance that is kept in heaven for you, pure and undefiled, beyond the reach of change and decay. 

MERCY

His mercy is greater than anything we can comprehend.  Next time you are outdone with someone think about how great His mercy is toward you.  How often should the Father have been totally outdone with you?  And yet His mercy was overwhelming pouring over on you as you sinned and sinned and sinned.  Jesus loves you and He calls you and me to have the same type of mercy that He lavishes on us with those around us.  Mercy brother and sister, show mercy to all you meet.  Blessings on your day.  Praise the Lord. 

APRIL 1 – GIVE

04/01          1 Peter 1:1-2 

This letter is from Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ. I am writing to God’s chosen people who are living as foreigners in the provinces of Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia. 2 God the Father knew you and chose you long ago, and his Spirit has made you holy. As a result, you have obeyed him and have been cleansed by the blood of Jesus Christ. May God give you more and more grace and peace. 

GIVE

We are recipients of Grace and Peace, it is something the Father will give us.  As we know Him we become more aware of His precious gifts.  Exalt the Lord for He has blessed us with what we need and cannot earn-the gift of life a life filled with grace and peace. 

MARCH 31 – EVERY

03/31          Psalm 139:15

You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion, as I was woven together in the dark of the womb.  16 You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed. 17 How precious are your thoughts about me, O God. They cannot be numbered! 

EVERY

Every thought you have towards me Father is a thought for good.  O Lord how often I thought of you in human terms.  I felt defeated and outcast.  I’ve spurned your friendship and I’ve not paid attention to our relationship.  Father help me to know you every moment, every hour.  Help me Lord build a relationship with you. 

MARCH 30 – DETAIL

03/30          Psalm 139:13

13 You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit me together in my mother’s womb.  14Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex! Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it. 

DETAIL

What detail you have given to my life.  A detail that was fully developed before I was born.  Today you continue to give attention to my life.  Help me Lord to see this wonderful care and concern you have for me.  Open my eyes Lord that I might see what a great Lord I serve. 

 

MARCH 29 – NOTHING

03/29          Psalm 139:11-12 

I could ask the darkness to hide me and the light around me to become night—12

 but even in darkness I cannot hide from you. To you the night shines as bright as day. Darkness and light are the same to you. 

NOTHING

Nothing can separate me from you.  Nothing absolutely nothing.  I can pray toda with the full knowledge that you are here and concerned for me.  Thank you Lord for you are so good to me.  Blessed be the name of the Lord. 

 

MARCH 28 – HERE

03/28          Psalm 139:7-10

7 I can never escape from your Spirit! I can never get away from your presence! 8 If I go up to heaven, you are there; if I go down to the grave, you are there. 9 If I ride the wings of the morning, if I dwell by the farthest oceans, 10 even there your hand will guide me, and your strength will support me. 

HERE

O Lord you are here with me.  I am so grateful.  As I face today’s challenges I know that you are there looking over my shoulder.  You are concerned for me even before I am concerned.  Thank you Lord God Almighty.  I praise you for your immeasurable love and concern for me.  It is so much more than I can comprehend. 

 

MARCH 27 – SUBMIT

03/27          Psalm 139:5

5 You go before me and follow me. You place your hand of blessing on my head. 

6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too great for me to understand! 

SUBMIT

Lord today I submit to YOU.  YOU are wonderful beyond my greatest thoughts.  You bless me much more than I deserve or can ever earn.  You Lord are with me and love me.  Praise the Lord.  Praise the Lord.

MARCH 26 – KNOWS

03/26          Psalm 139:4

4 You know what I am going to say even before I say it, LORD . 

KNOWS

He knows the future as well as if it were present time.  Nothing is too great for our God.  Your sin does not overwhelm the Lord.  Take Him your sin and He will forgive you and cleanse you.  The Lord will not let you out of His sight.  He will rebuild your life one moment at a time.  We have a good Father who loves us more than we love ourselves. 

MARCH 25 – HERE

03/25          Psalm 139:3

3 You see me when I travel and when I rest at home. You know everything I do. 

HERE

God is here.  How else could He keep up with you unless He were here?  Do not walk through life lonely.  Turn you emotions and need over to the Lord and He will meet that need you have.  God is here and He loves you.
