Today's Scripture
So I have come down to rescue them...and to bring them up out of that land into a good and spacious land... (Exodus 3:8, NIV)
Today's Word from Joel and Victoria
Notice in todays verse that God did not say He would bring His people into a small land; a little place, tight or crowded. No, receive this into your spirit: Just as God brought the children of Israel into a good and spacious land, so He will do the same for you! He wants to take you to the land of more than enough, a land of plenty of room flowing with increase, good breaks and opportunity. He wants you to live in a land where you not only have enough for yourself, but youre so blessed that you can be a blessing to other people.
If youre not in a good and spacious place today, the challenge is: dont settle where you are. This is not your permanent address! Its only temporary. Keep standing, keep believing, keep pressing forward and walk into the good and spacious land God has in store for you!
A Prayer for Today
Father, thank You for Your goodness and faithfulness in my life. I trust that You are leading me into a new land, a spacious land filled with blessing and opportunity. I choose to stand and keep my eyes on You as You lead me forward in Your purposes in Jesus name. Amen.
Are they servants of Christ? I am a better oneI am talking like a madmanwith far greater labors, far more imprisonments, with countless beatings, and often near death. 24Five times I received at the hands of the Jews the forty lashes less one. 25Three times I was beaten with rods. Once I was stoned. Three times I was shipwrecked; a night and a day I was adrift at sea; 26on frequent journeys, in danger from rivers, danger from robbers, danger from my own people, danger from Gentiles, danger in the city, danger in the wilderness, danger at sea, danger from false brothers; 27in toil and hardship, through many a sleepless night, in hunger and thirst, often without food,b in cold and exposure...
Ah, the good life...
