TODAY'S SCRIPTURE

"The Lord is not slow in keeping His promise…" (2 Peter 3:9, NIV)

TODAY'S WORD from Joel and Victoria

Do you realize that as a believer in Jesus, you have a tremendous advantage in life? The Creator of the Universe is not only fighting your battles, but He is lining up the right people, the right breaks, and the right opportunities to move you forward. You may be facing a situation right now that looks like it's never going to turn around, but I believe that you're going to see some changes quicker than you think. You're going to come out of debt quicker than you think. You're going to accomplish your goals much quicker than you think. That relationship is going to be restored quicker than you think!

Remember, God is not slow in keeping His promise. I believe we are entering into a decade where we're going to see the hand of God move like never before. He is going to open up doors that no man can shut. He is going to turn impossible situations around and take you places that you never dreamed. It's time to get ready for more of God's favor because that breakthrough is going to happen quicker than you think!

A PRAYER FOR TODAY

Father in heaven, thank You for being faithful to Your Word. I trust that You will complete the work You've begun in me. Help me keep my heart and mind focused on You as I stand strong in faith to see Your promises come to pass in my life. In Jesus' Name. Amen.

Daily Affirmations To Keep Your Thoughts on God's Goodness

I was doing some searching online for affirmations that I could say daily to help keep my thoughts on God's word and his goodness.

During the times that we pray and are waiting on the things prayed for to manifest we may get doubtful if they haven't showed up on OUR time-frame (well I know that I do)...so these affirmations & statements of gratitude that I have shared with you will help you to keep the negative thoughts out of your mind and continue to focus on the positive. Whenever you feel fear or doubt start creeping up....remind yourself that God is on your side and what you have asked for is already provided.

These affirmations are some that I have come up with and that I have borrowed from others....My hope is that this will help you in your daily life or inspire you to create your own affirmations.

Stay Blessed!
