Verse for the Day

 

“The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.”

-John 10:10 ESV

 

 

Quote for the Day

“The enemy always fights the hardest when He knows God has something great in store for you.”

 

 

Word for the Day

The same ole enemy. The new year of 2021 presents me with an opportunity to be a better person and Christian. It also invites me to do better in terms of my family and my faith. Yet the truth that I need to accept is that a new year brings with it the same ole enemy.

 

We begin 2021 with a continuous fight against a deadly virus. 4,000 people died of COVID-19 on January 7, 2021 in 1 day! American citizens rioted and invaded its own capital city on January 6, 2021, which for the Christian community was Epiphany Day. A day in which we contemplate our need to see and receive God’s amazing love for us in the person of His son Jesus Christ who is savior of the entire world.

 

The revelation many of us have received is that the “ole enemy” is still after our life. He wants our joy, peace, sanity, purpose, and our very soul. But God has loved us and made provision for us in His son Jesus Christ. He comes that we might live.

 

I’m determined to overcome and resist the “Ole Enemy” the devil himself in 2021 through the power of the Holy Spirit. I may fall in 2021, but I am determined to get back up again. I want more “W’s” than “L’s” on my life record. I am on the lookout for the “ole enemy”

 

 

Prayer for the Day

O God, the world is changing so fast. Every day there is news of those who disregard law, devise evil, and destroy both people and property. And because of what is happening, fear sometimes rises in my heart—for me, for those I love, and for people everywhere. Yet I know you are in control.

 

I ask you today for your supernatural protection, Lord—both personally and globally. Please station angels around my home and family to guard them from danger. Lead us away from temptation and help us to run from the presence of questionable activities or harmful influences. When we are weak, help us to look up to you and to hold on tight to the truth that you love us and want the best for us. In Jesus name Amen
