10/27          Psalm 70:5

But as for me, I am poor and needy; please hurry to my aid, O God. You are my helper and my savior; O , do not delay.

HELP
Lord help us.  We need you every moment of every day.  Without you we cannot survive.  Thank you Lord for being here with us.  Thank you for answered prayer and we know you hear us and have our best good in mind.

10/26          Psalm 70:4

But may all who search for you be filled with joy and gladness in you. May those who love your salvation repeatedly shout, “God is great!”

GREAT

God is great.  With every fiber of my being I declare this moment God is great.  He cares for me.  He created me.  He loves me.  He is Lord.  Glory to God in the highest.  God is great. 

10/25          Psalm 70:2-3

May those who try to kill me be humiliated and put to shame. May those who take delight in my trouble be turned back in disgrace. 3 Let them be horrified by their shame, for they said, “Aha! We’ve got him now!”

BELONG

We belong to the Lord.  No one can take us away from Him.  Our name is etched in the palms of His hands, He holds us with an unbreakable grip.  We belong to the Lord. 

10/24          Psalm 70:1

1 Please, God, rescue me! Come quickly, , and help me.

PRAY

We can pray and do so knowing that the Lord Jesus hears us.  I don’t know the details of what happen when I cry out to Him I just know that He listens to me and hears me and always delivers me.  Thank you Lord Jesus for your answers for my life.  You always listen to me. 

10/23          2 Peter 3:17-18

You already know these things, dear friends. So be on guard; then you will not be carried away by the errors of these wicked people and lose your own secure footing. 18 Rather, you must grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. All glory to him, both now and forever! Amen.

THINK

Think about what Jesus did for you and the gift His death, burial and resurrection provide for you-forgiveness and relationship-salvation.  Knowing this live your life with an awareness of His glory, His honor and the grace He showers afresh and anew on you each morning.  Jesus is Lord. 

10/22          2 Peter 3:15-16

And remember, our Lord’s patience gives people time to be saved. This is what our beloved brother Paul also wrote to you with the wisdom God gave him— 16 speaking of these things in all of his letters. Some of his comments are hard to understand, and those who are ignorant and unstable have twisted his letters to mean something quite different, just as they do with other parts of Scripture. And this will result in their destruction.

TIME

We are time creatures.  We live in a world ruled by time.  Jesus is not limited by time.  Even so everything Jesus does is right on time.  Be calm.  Rejoice.  Jesus loves you. 

10/21          2 Peter 3:14

And so, dear friends, while you are waiting for these things to happen, make every effort to be found living peaceful lives that are pure and blameless in his sight.

FOCUS

My life is in His hands.  My soul is encouraged by His presence.  He gives me His peace, His joy and therefore I can live my life longing for His return and still live peacefully.  I am His and belong to Jesus. 

10/20          2 Peter 3:13

But we are looking forward to the new heavens and new earth he has promised, a world filled with God’s righteousness.

SOON

Jesus is coming back soon.  The world groans as it waits.  I’m waiting and experiencing the oppression of the evil of this world.  I stop and listen and my heart knows He is coming soon. 

10/19          2 Peter 3:10-12

But the day of the Lord will come as unexpectedly as a thief. Then the heavens will pass away with a terrible noise, and the very elements themselves will disappear in fire, and the earth and everything on it will be found to deserve judgment. 11 Since everything around us is going to be destroyed like this, what holy and godly lives you should live, 12 looking forward to the day of God and hurrying it along. On that day, he will set the heavens on fire, and the elements will melt away in the flames.

JESUS
Jesus is coming back.  It may be today.  When He returns it will be in judgment.  Listen to the Lord, obey Him and be ready for Christ’s return.  Jesus is coming back soon. 

10/18          2 Peter 3:9

The Lord isn’t really being slow about his promise, as some people think. No, he is being patient for your sake. He does not want anyone to be destroyed, but wants everyone to repent.

REPENT

You and I need to repent for we lead self-interested lives seeking our own gain and constantly miss what the Lord is calling us to do.  I want to change.  We need to changed.  Repent of the way you are living your life and turn back to Jesus.  Let Him control your every move.  He is Lord.
