Watering Your Seed
Today's Scripture
"Bless our God, O peoples, give Him grateful thanks and make the voice of His praise be heard" (Psalm 66:8, AMP)
Today's Word from Joel and Victoria
Do you know why praise is so important? When you give God praise, you are putting yourself in a position of power. You are connecting with Him and strengthening your inner man. You are watering the seeds of destiny He has placed on the inside of you. If you are believing God for something specific, all throughout the day just thank Him that the answer is on the way. "Father, thank You for my new job." "Thank You for restoring my marriage." "Thank You for healing my body." When you live with an attitude of thanksgiving, you are putting your faith to work and activating God's supernatural power in your life. You are making progress toward seeing those promises fulfilled.
Make the decision today to water those seeds of destiny with praise and thanksgiving. Put God first and acknowledge Him in everything you do. Soon, you'll see those promises take root, and it won't be long before they flourish into the abundant harvest the Lord has prepared for you!
A Prayer for Today
"Heavenly Father, I choose to bless You and give You thanks. You alone are worthy of my praise. You alone are faithful and just. I trust You today with everything that I am, knowing that You have good things in store for me. In Jesus' Name. Amen."
