When
we encounter barriers to doing what we want, we often attempt to reconfigure
truth to fit our human appetites, placing our passing feelings and desires as the
highest level of authority. God designed us to live with certain inward and
outward restraints. When we consciously abandon the safety of Scriptural values,
the protection of the Brotherhood of Believers and Spirit guided accountability,
only to choose a path of self-determined constraint, it is a sure path to
destruction. To reject truth-molded principles as our inner compass is to align
ourselves with the forces of darkness. Lord God, I desperately need the constant
voice of my Creator and Commander. Corral me into a life of committed surrender
where I may run freely and safely under Your constant discipline and care.
“This is the day that the LORD has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it!” Psalm 118:24 ESV. The table is set for a brand-new day. Only God knows exactly what is already prepared for my arrival in it. I must now leave behind days gone by and ready myself for new insight, a higher life, and greater things. Am I up for what today will bring? Only the day will tell, but the One who provides it will also carry me through it. One thing is sure; I will walk upon on sacred footprints since the Alpha and Omega has already trod this moment in advance, sprinkling blessings and divine opportunities throughout. I must pay attention so I don’t miss a thing He has placed along the path. Lord God, Lover of My Soul, today is the day You have made; I am so good with that and already rejoicing in what is to unfold. Lift me in Your arms and carry me through with faith, joy, and purpose.
