TODAY’S MESSAGE
You might have known some of these families. It seems like every single day there’s some kind of “fatality” in their home. Two weeks ago their youngest child broke his right leg. Last week their oldest daughter was involved in an accident. This week they are all sick. Tomorrow?? Again, it may seem as if families like these are “destined” to live with bad luck. Is this true?
The Bible clearly declares that God ordains the steps of the righteous –those who have made Him the center of their lives. For the plain truth is that God’s Spirit –not luck– acts every single second as our Guidance and Wisdom, working on our behalf and helping us make the right choices. And making right decisions while living with a positive attitude will surely keep any family member out of trouble. Guaranteed!
Don’t rely on luck any longer. Trust God, and allow the Holy Spirit to guide your everyday steps. Only then will you experience a blessed day every single day!
TODAY’S PRAYER
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for making me righteous before You through Jesus. Help me to maintain a positive attitude at all times while I allow Your Spirit to guide my steps. I thank You for making me a blessing to the world. In Jesus’ precious name, amen.
