Be Determined!

We also pray that you will be strengthened with all his glorious power
so you will have all the endurance and patience you need.
May you be filled with joy,
Colossians 1:11

What gets God's attention?
God is not moved by our needs.
He isn't moved by whining or complaining.
The "poor pitiful me" routine does not get His attention.
Do you know what moves God to act on your behalf?
Here's the answer: your faith in Him.
This is why it is vital that we be determined to stand on God's Word
no matter the circumstances around us.

God has promised us in His Word that He will fight our battles,
but this does not happen automatically.
We must do our part.
We must dig our heels in with an attitude of faith
and exercise endurance, patience, and perseverance.
We must be determined to stand strong in faith and face those challenges that come at us.

Just as the apostle Paul prayed for the Colossian believers,
I'm praying that today you are strengthened with His power to exercise
endurance, perseverance, and patience
so that you can stand strong and be determined to take hold of every promise God has in store for you!

Have a blessed & powerful day!
Kendall

A PRAYER FOR TODAY:
Heavenly Father, thank You for giving me a measure of faith that grows as I receive Your Word.
Today, I declare that I am determined to put You first and stand on Your promises
so that I can live the life of victory You have prepared for me.
In Jesus' name, Amen.
