Living hope
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His great mercy has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. 1 Peter 1:3
Praise God that He has caused us to be born again. We are new people. As Jesus rose from the dead, we too have a new life in Jesus. That’s something to celebrate. What great mercy has Jesus our Lord. God can give us opportunities to share the hope we have in Jesus as we pray.
Lord Jesus, thanks for new life in you. Please can you send me opportunities to share the gospel. Thanks Lord.
Jesus’ love
For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 8:38,39.
Jesus has a love that is complete. There is nothing that can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus. Praise God. How much He loves us. Whatever your day was like, be encouraged that Jesus’ love is the constant in your life. As you praise Jesus, the overflow of that is the presence of God in Christ Jesus. When our lives enter in to the presence of God, worries are eased, our brokenness healed and close together in Jesus’ love are we.
Jesus thanks for your love, the constant in life.
Believe
Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household. Acts 16:31
The entry point of being saved is really that simple. To believe in Jesus, is to be saved. How many people would be saved if they knew all they needed was to believe. Really wonderful news we have to tell everyone.
Praise you Lord for the gift of salvation. Give me opportunities to share the good news to others, amen.
More than conquerors
In everything we have won more than a victory because of Christ who loves us. Romans 8:37
We get to be more than conquerors through Jesus. He won that at the cross and and when He rose again. Praise God. We have overwhelming victory in Jesus. Undeserved grace is something to be forever grateful of.

Dreams, visions and prophecy
but this is what was spoken of through the prophet Joel: ‘And it shall be in the last days,’ God says, ‘That I will pour out my Spirit on all mankind; And your sons and your daughters shall prophecy, And your young men shall see visions, And your old men shall dream dreams.’ Acts 2:16,17
What a time to be alive when the Holy Spirit is being poured out. As the Holy Spirit moves, we can have words of prophecy and visions and dreams. Are you expectant for how the Spirit will move in your life? What has God whispered to you as you wait apon Him?
