Daily and Weekly Christian Inspiration
Do you always keep your word?
Only then will you know His character is being formed in you.
If our characters are being conformed to His Image we will keep promises we make.
Numbers 23:19 God is not human, that He should lie, not a human being, that He should change His mind. Does He speak and then not act? Does He promise and not fulfill?
Dear Father,
While admiring the beauty of the work of your hands, as I see the hills and mountains ablaze with vibrant shades of yellow, orange and red, and marvel at the fruitful harvest from your faithful provision, I am amazed, for surely all this declares your majesty and awesomeness!
As I reflect, I have to question who am I that you would be concerned with me? I will never fathom Your love and mercy and yet I believe it with all my heart.
Oh, Papa, may my life declare your majesty and faithfulness as much as the creation of nature echoes your awesomeness!
Dear Child,
Creation just naturally fulfills the purpose it was created for. It doesn’t strive to do anything else! It never doubts My sovereignty but without effort awaits each season, knowing each season has a unique purpose.
But I cannot commune with nature, I cannot fellowship with nature. Only man was created in My image, to fellowship and commune with Me!
All of this beauty was created for man! And man was created to relate to Me!
As you commune and fellowship with Me, your life is declaring My majesty and mercy, for by faith in My mercy, you are trusting My sovereignty and majesty! You are a vessel to display that majesty and mercy, but you must allow Me to fill the vessel daily or you will run dry.
Thus saith Papa
Psalm 8:3 -4 / Isaiah 64:8 / Jeremiah / 18:2-4
Just as creation brings glory to His name by simply fulfilling its purpose, even so, as we fellowship with and wait on the Lord, we are fulfilling that for which He created us. He created us to fellowship with Him!
CHALLENGE: Are you making that journey each day to the Potter’s house, are you yielding as He molds you season to season, that your life might display, not only the signature of the Creator, but also His majesty and faithfulness.
Remember He has a reason for this season of your life!

Your words will reveal the hidden contents that are deep inside of your heart.
Matthew12:34-37 For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh. A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things:and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things. But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.
Revelation 3:20, 22 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock:if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
Although this verse is often used as an invitation to the world who don’t know Christ, we must take a closer look, for saints, this was an invitation to the church, to those who had already responded to His love. This was written to the church of Laodicea who had grown lukewarm and had become self sufficient and no longer took the time to fellowship with Him.
So I ask again “ Did you open the door today?”
