Your Excesses
Some members of a health club were having their first meeting. The director of the group said, "Now, I'd like each of you to give the facts of your daily routine." Several people spoke, admitting their excesses, and then one obviously overweight member said, "I eat moderately, I drink moderately, and I exercise frequently." "Hmm?" said the manager. "And are you sure you having nothing else to add?" "Well, yes," said the member, "I lie extensively."
A Word for Today
What are you hoping for?
"There is surely a future hope for you, and your hope will not be cut off."
-Prov 23:18 (NIV)
What are you hoping for? Most will say good things of course, but really deep down, it may be the fear that something will go wrong. Fear is not of God, and the bible says fear torments, our verse talks about our hope and expectations coming to physical manifestations, it can either be good expectations or bad expectations. Job said after his afflictions that the things he greatly feared had come upon him (Job 3:25), Job was a righteous man, to the extent that God could boast about him, but fear tormented him. Make up your mind to get rid of the fear, don't hope for bad things, rather expect good things, no matter what the situation is around you, God reigns and rules above it all and there is indeed a future for you. You might be enjoying God's goodness now and might be thinking it's too good to be true, and somewhere in your heart thinking it might not last and things might take the turn for the worse, NO, it won't, you are God's child and His thoughts towards you are good, so you too need to channel your thoughts in the positive direction, whatever the Lord does is forever. Ecc 3:14, 'And I know that whatever God does is final. Nothing can be added to it or taken from it...'Wake up everyday, knowing it's the day the Lord has made, and because God has made that day, no evil can lurk around in it, expect only blessings and miracles. Write it out if need be and paste it beside your bed, let it be the first thing you see when you wake up, because indeed your hope will not be cut off, God is a faithful God.
Confession
Fear has no root in my life, I expect only blessings and miracles, no evil will come near me and no plague will come near my dwelling place Hallelu
