The Light of God’s Word
Scripture
Reflection
The Word of God offers everything that His people need to navigate through life on God’s road to righteousness. From the time a child begins to walk, that child begins to choose a path, direction and destination that they will travel. That child will naturally walk to areas that are well lit. As the child grows he or she will venture out into a world filled with darkness with many paths to choose from. In those dark places, God provides His Word as a GPS road map to guide and keep us on His righteous path which leads us in safety to the places and destiny He has chosen for us. His Word will “guide your feet in peaceful ways and turns your midnights into days.” Allow God’s Word to illuminate your steps and guide you in His path today and every day.
Prayer
Dear Lord teach me to walk in the light of Your Word. Please keep me on Your path of righteousness so that my life is pleasing to You. In Jesus name Amen.

Is There Room for the King of Glory?!
Scripture
Psalm 24:7-10
Lift up your heads, O you gates!
And be lifted up, you everlasting doors!
And the King of glory shall come in. Who is this King of glory?
The Lord strong and mighty,
The Lord mighty in battle.
Lift up your heads, O you gates!
Lift up, you everlasting doors!
And the King of glory shall come in. Who is this King of glory?
The Lord of hosts,
He is the King of glory. Selah
Reflection
In this powerful passage the Psalmist makes a triumphant call for the gates of Jerusalem (Heaven) to open for the glorious entry of God, the King of Glory. He asks “Who is the King of Glory” two times and responds “the Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle. This description refers to the return of the Arc of the Covenant and foreshadows the ascension of Jesus the Christ. The message to believers is that we must make room for Christ, the King to enter and rule in our hearts each day as our King and Lord. How do we do that? Through spending time with the Lord in His Word daily. By confessing and repenting our sins daily asking Him to refill us with the Holy Spirit. The King of Glory will come in when your heart is pure and your hands are clean. King Jesus who is strong and mighty and mighty in battle will fight your battles and defeat Satan and every enemy that comes against you giving you victory through Jesus Christ our Lord!
So lift up your head open your heart child of God and King of Glory, the Lord of Host will come in.
Prayer
Lord God, thank you for reminding me that You are the King of Glory. You are mighty to save and mighty to deliver me in every aspect of my life. I open the doors of my heart and ask You to come in to conquer my soul and defeat my enemies. I confess and repent of my sins and faults and will walk in victory because of You. Lord Jesus, You are Lord of my life and I surrender all to You. Please use me today and every day to lead others to you. Amen!

Our Call to Justice & Rigtheousness
Scripture: Amos 5:24
But let justice run down like water,
And righteousness like a mighty stream.
Reflection
As we pause to honor and reflection on the life and legacy Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., his mandate from God to pursue justice, righteousness and equality for oppressed people is clear. In his immortal “I Have a Dream” speech deliver August 28, 1963, he quoted this passage as a charge to God’s people to avoid the hypocrisy of religious worship that is void of pursuing social justice for the oppressed and righteousness for the poor. Also, we must challenge and defeat moral corruption and spiritual wickedness in high places. God demands true worship from His people. Therefore, we are called to carry out these God given mandates of justice and righteousness in our daily service to Him as our Christian duty and moral responsibility.
Prayer
Heavenly Father, I receive your charge to “let justice run down like water, And righteousness like a mighty stream” in my walk and witness for You. Give me the courage to join with brothers and sisters in Christ to take a stand for what is true and right according to Your Word. I desire to lift the poor and oppressed by meeting unmet needs with the love of Christ. In Jesus name Amen.

Because Jesus Intercedes for Us, We stand
Scripture: John 17:9-10, Romans 8:34
John 17:9-10
“I pray for them. I do not pray for the world but for those whom You have given Me, for they are Yours. And all Mine are Yours, and Yours are Mine, and I am glorified in them.
Romans 8:34
“It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.”
Reflection
Jesus is our eternal Savior and Lord who gave His loves us so much that He gave His life to save us from our sins. He is the exalted Son of God who is our Savior, Mediator, High Priest, Intercessor and more. As your Intercessor He Prays to the Father continually on your behalf for your needs and concerns just as He did in John 17:9-10. As a disciple of His, He claims you as His own and presents you before the Father perpetually and is glorified in you. And because He died and was raised from the dead, He is highly exalted above all things and God the Father has placed all things under His feet. God has given Jesus a seat at His right hand where He perpetually prays and literally stands in the gap for all believers day and night. Because Jesus Intercedes for us, we stand.
Oh, what love He has for us.
Prayer
Lord Jesus, I thank you for your love and care for me and all believers. It is mind blowing to think that you pray to the Father for my weaknesses, needs and concerns continually. I understand more clearly now than ever before that when I struggle in life, it is You that delivers and enables me to stand again and fulfill my calling and purpose until you call me from labor to reward. Thank You, Lord! Glory to Your Name! Amen!

Life Changing Encouragement
Scripture: John 16:33
33 These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”
Reflection:
Encouragement is an essential part of our relationships with the people in our lives. Everyone needs encouragement in this life to fulfill the God given purpose and destiny in Christ. When you give encouragement, you literally sow into the soil of a person’s life and help them to move past barriers and obstacles. The encouragement that we offer as believers differs from that which is offered by people in the world because it is based on speaking the Word of God. Speaking the Word is life-giving and life-changing. One word from the Lord can lift a person to new heights. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once spoke to a group of students concerning the question: What is your life’s blueprint? He challenged them to believe in your dignity and commit to a determination of excellence. Recently, after a crushing season ending defeat a young, first year head coach entered the press conference to respond to questions from reporters. Toward the end of the session, a courageous reporter stood and addressed the coach, “I just want to tell you congratulations on your success, young man…
You hold your head up, alright? You guys have had a most magnificent season. You did a great job out there today. So you just hold your head up, OK?” The coach responded to her powerful encouragement with amazement and deep appreciation. With tears in his eyes, he responded “yes ma’am, yes ma’am, thank you ma’am.” There was silence in the room amd the coach left with his head held high. Jesus gave the ultimate encouragement to believers in John 16:33 when He declared “in Me you may have peace.” In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” Jesus encouraged His believers that they would face tribulations but to take heart because He has conquered anything they could face in the world. Therefore, be encouraged and be an encourager because Jesus has conquered all and so can you.
Prayer:
Lord Jesus, I thank you for being my savior and ultimate encourager. Your salvation and encouragement have changed my life. Because You have overcome the world, I live a victorious life and commit to being an encourager of others as I follow You. Amen.

Praying for all the Saints
Scripture: Ephesians 6:18
praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints—
Reflection:
Apostle Paul concludes this powerful passage concerning saints putting on the whole armor of God to gain victory in the spiritual warfare in this life. He encourages believers to pray persistent and fervent prayers in the Holy Spirit. He encourages us to pray petitions and supplication with perseverance urging God to unleash His power in God’s people as we prevail in spiritual warfare. In doing so, we unite with other brothers and sisters in spiritual victory.
Prayer:
Lord, I unite with other believers in prayer and supplication for Your people around the world in all circumstances. As we wage war against the enemy, we pray that you lift up a standard against him and give us victory in every battle. Thank you for victory Jesus. Amen!

Scripture: Hebrews 4:16 Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
Reflection:
God invites us to approach His throne with confidence when we pray. This confidence is the result of our relationship with Jesus who is our High Priest who passed through the heavens and presents our petitions and concerns to the Father when we pray. Jesus experienced every condition and emotion that you will experience and understands your weaknesses and needs. During His life on earth, He was tempted in every way, yet He did not sin. Through His death and resurrection, He provided access to God’s throne of Grace when you pray. When you pray, surrender your life to Jesus and pray the Word of God with boldness concerning your requests believing God for the answers you seek.
Prayer:
Oh God, teach me to approach Your throne with bold confidence when I pray believing that You hear and will answer my prayers. Lord Jesus You are my holy high priest who knows my weaknesses and my needs. I present my petitions to You believing that You will always answer and provide what is best for my life and those people connected to me. Thank you Lord for answered prayer. In Jesus Name. Amen.

WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 15
Scripture: Luke 18:1Then He spoke a parable to them, that men always ought to pray and not lose heart (faint)…
Reflection:
There is a persistence in prayer that God desires from His children. It involves praying continuously in faith and refusing to lose heart. It is praying and believing God to perform His Word even when the outcome and answers are delayed. In Luke 18:1, Jesus begins the parable of the persistent widow who pleaded with the unjust judge with this declaration. She did not stop troubling the judge until she was certain that he heard her plea. Persisting in prayer produces perseverance and builds your faith and your conviction to believe God all the way through to the answer.
Prayer:
Father God, teach me to pray about everything and pray according to Your Word. Help me to be persistent and to make my requests known to You daily and then to trust and accept Your will in my life and circumstances. In Jesus Name. Amen.

Receiving the Peace of God through Prayer
Scripture: Philippians 4:6-7
6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
Reflection:
Apostle Paul teaches the Philippian believers (and each of us) not to allow anxiety (nervousness, uneasiness, stress) in life to overwhelm them. He then instructs to take every request and concern to God in prayer and supplication with thanksgiving. When you present your problems and concerns to God, He give you peace that is beyond your human ability to understand and that peace will guard your through Christ Jesus. Prayer exchanges your anxiety with God’s peace.
Prayer:
Lord God, You are the God of peace. I chose to release all anxiety, stress and worry to You in prayer. Teach me to pray this scripture and others like it when I feel anxious or fearful. I receive Your peace in my heart and dwell in Your presence, in Jesus Name. Amen.
