I LOVE Kenneth and Gloria Copeland's "Faith To Faith" devotional for today!
Recall God's Mercies
This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope. It is of
the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.
They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness. Lamentations 3:21-23
God is faithful. He's full of compassion. His mercies are new
every morning. As a believer, you know all that. But simply knowing it is not
enough.
For it to do you any good, you have to recall it. You have
to remember it again and again in order to rekindle your hope and stir your
faith.
So, make it a point to remind yourself of God's faithfulness
every morning. Remind yourself of the benefits that are yours in Jesus.
What are those benefits? Psalm 103 spells them out:
1. He forgives all your sins.
2. He heals all your diseases.
3. He redeems your life from destruction.
4. He crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies.
5. He satisfies your mouth with good things so that your
youth is renewed like the eagle's.
6. He executes righteousness and judgment for you against
oppression.
7. He sets you free.
8. He makes known His ways to you.
9. He gives you His grace and mercy in times of need.
Make it a point every morning to say those things out
loud to the Lord. Stand before Him in prayer and recall His mercies to you.
Keep it up and you'll be stronger in faith and more confident of God's
love than you've ever been before.
Don't just settle for knowing God's blessings.
Remember them every day and watch them come alive in you.
AMEN! Remember always that God's Word was given to us and that all of the Wisdom of God is hidden FOR us within His Word! Make it your determined purpose to get to know JESUS more every day by learning more of His Word! EVERY SINGLE DAY! That is the ONLY way to truly grow up in the things of God!
