Day 29

Day 29 – Tuesday May 22nd

 A – Today’s reading of the day is James Chapter 4 (21st Century King James Version for me this last time through)

Focal verses today are James 4:9 & 14 “Be afflicted and mourn and weep.  Let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness. …whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow.  For what is your life?  It is even a vapor that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.”

B – RHEMA Strike Verse of the day: 1 Kings 2:2 “I am going the way of all the earth.  Be strong therefore, and show yourself a man.”      (Manhood/White)

C – Excerpt from “Wild at Heart” by John Eldridge:
“At last, I am surrounded by wilderness.  The wind in the top of the pines behind me sounds like the ocean.  Waves are rushing in from the great blue above, cresting upon the ridge of the mountain I have climbed, …”

D – Today’s input: Hopefully we have all experience the saving grace of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. As you look at your salvation experience you need to remember the “A” of the “ABCs of Salvation”. “A” is for “Admit”. Admit that you are a sinner and in need of a Savior. Each one of us fights daily with sin. Look at the sin in your life. You may not have some great hidden evil deed but we all have sin and any small amount of sin is all it takes to separate us from the Holy God. What sin(s) in your life is keeping you from having a deeper, more intimate relationship with God? Bring those before God and turn from sin to Him. It is no longer time to wallow in your sin.

E – Today’s prayer focus:  Admit to God you are a sinner and ask Him to forgive you of your sins.

F – Encouragement and closing thoughts: Are you ready to stand on the edge of a mountain to hear God speak directly to you?  Are you ready to have Father pass in front of you so you can catch a glimpse of how Holy and magnificent He is?  As exciting as we are about going to the mountain, you don’t have to wait.  God is ready today!  Are you?
