Meeting You Where You Are?

Daily Bible Verse & Prayer

Today's Verse - 1 John 5:13

I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life.

—1 John 5:13

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

Yes, we can KNOW we have eternal life! Don't settle for less!! Confidence is so crucial that God sent his Son to die and be raised so we could know that eternal life with Jesus is our destination, not just our journey. While that eternal life begins and is experienced now (John 5:24), what we experience here is only a hint, a foretaste, of what lies ahead in our glorious and eternal future with the LORD Jesus.

My Prayer...

Thank you, heavenly Father, for your plan of salvation and the cost you paid to make it happen. Thank you for giving me confidence now in my eternal future with you as your child. Thank you for heaven, hope, and my home with you forever. To you belong all the glory and praise, and I pray in your name, LORD Jesus. Amen.

Today's Verse - 1 Thessalonians 5:12

Now we ask you, brothers and sisters, to respect those who work hard among you, who are over you in the Lord and who admonish you.

—1 Thessalonians 5:12

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

What are you doing to bless the lives of your spiritual leaders? Do you pray daily for them? Do you send them notes of encouragement? Do you thank them for their loving attention? Do you respond to their correction and take heart in their affirmations? Leaders don't need to be followed unthinkingly, but often, they get no support for their efforts. Let's make their work a blessing and not a burden (Hebrews 13:17). Let's respect our leaders who work hard among us!

My Prayer...

Thank you for our spiritual leaders, Almighty God, the Great Leader of Israel. Bless their families with faithfulness, their lives with health, their influence with Godly impact, and their leadership with willing followers. May you, dear God, be praised and glorified by the unity of your people and the quality of our leaders. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Today's Verse - Psalm 5:11

But let all who take refuge in you [O LORD] be glad; let them ever sing for joy. Spread your protection over them, that those who love your name may rejoice in you.

—Psalm 5:11

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

Our hope is in the LORD! He is the basis of our security. He is the reason for our joyful songs! He is our protection and hope. He is the reason we rejoice. May all of us who take refuge in the LORD and love his name be glad and rejoice in him!

My Prayer...

We praise you, our magnificent God and our tender, loving Father. We rejoice in your merciful kindness, awesome holiness, rich forgiveness, and never-ending love. We find our hope and protection in you. You are our hope for the future. In your name, and in the name of your Son Jesus, we rejoice and offer praise. Amen.
