Thank you, Jesus! – Today, let’s worship Jesus and allow His Light in us to bring hope, love and peace into our homes, our families, our churches, and a lost world. Let’s make our Redeemer and King the focal point of our Christmas celebrations. Let’s glorify Him as our Lord of lords and King of kings, as we reflect on the eternal love, hope, grace, peace and joy that He has brought into the world and into our lives. (John 3:16)
For as we think in our hearts, so we are… – Let us allow God to lead us in His most excellent way of gospel truth and gospel love. Let’s allow Him to shower us with His goodness as we walk beside His peaceful streams, and as we are reminded of His greatness and strength to defeat strongholds and win the battles in our hearts and minds. Let’s never forget the wonder of His Word. May we observe closely, be amazed and respond in obedience to what He is doing in our lives. (Habakkuk 3:17-19; Isaiah 55:9; Ecclesiastes 3:1-8; Psalm 23:1-3)
Through obedience, be at rest, trusting in the Lord and blessing others… – Let’s obediently submit to our Lord this week. Let’s allow Him to stir a desire in us to be devoted to serving Him, and to a blessing and loving on those around us with a kind and compassionate heart. Let’s seek God first, trusting that the Truth of His Word will renew our minds and fill us with wisdom to live worthy of our calling and salvation – for His glory! May we keep our eyes on Jesus, being diligent and servant-hearted, and trusting Him to direct every step we take. (Proverbs 3:5-6)
Re-surrender for fresh transformation! – May we allow our Heavenly Father to make us new – purifying our hearts so that we reflect and glorify Him in all we do. May we be obedient in giving of our ‘little’, knowing that He can multiply it for His Kingdom purposes! May we sacrifice the things in our lives that are holding us back from serving God whole-heartedly. And may we be reminded that as we spend time in our Lord’s presence, He fills us with eternal hope, and equips us to share His LOVE, PEACE and TRUTH with the world around us. (Romans 12:1)
In the light of His peace, glory and grace! – My prayer for us today is: May we long to live purposeful lives that are fully committed to loving God. May we be grateful for God’s perfect peace that surpasses all understanding. May we remain anchored in God’s Word, faithfully trusting in His promises and obediently stepping into the places He calls us to! May we rejoice in knowing that our lives are built on a rock-solid foundation – Jesus Christ our Lord! (Philippians 4:4-9)
Remaining faithful... – May we ask God to help us grow in faith and hope as we trust in Him! Let’s remember that we are His children and He loves us dearly. This knowledge helps us to live obedient lives – walking in His love and grace, and boldly representing Him as we shine His light through our lives. (Jude 1:24-25)
A Heart and Mind Audit... – May we be still in God’s presence today as we invite Him to shine His light upon our lives… To cross-examine and test our hearts and minds, and to get a clear picture of what we are about… To reveal what is hidden within us – our wrongdoing, or anxious thoughts… And then let’s trust Him to guide us back to His glorious, everlasting way – the path that leads us back to Him – the path of endless love and perfect peace! (Psalm 139:23-24)
Rooted and Grounded in Jesus! – Let’s remember that through prayer and by immersing ourselves in God’s Word, we can remain firmly rooted and grounded in our Lord. He is faithful and we can hold on to His truth and promises over our lives. May we ask our Lord to fill us afresh with His Spirit of peace which surpasses all understanding – so that we may be the peacemakers He created us to be. As we draw closer and closer to our Heavenly Father, may we blossom and bear fruit in every season and through all circumstances. (Jeremiah 17:7-8)
Finding our joy, hope and purpose in Jesus… – What an extraordinary time to explore more about the teaching and example of Jesus. Let’s take significant steps to create space to surrender, pray and listen! And may we then go out with the help of the Holy Spirit to bring joy and hope; and to shine Jesus’ light wherever we go. (Proverbs 9:10)
Prayer, joy, peace and love… – Let’s pray bold prayers this week… Prayers that activate our faith in our Lord’s ability to do the impossible. Let’s ask our Heavenly Father to restore and fill us with His joy and peace that truly transcends all understanding. Let’s look up with gratitude; fixing our eyes on Jesus and His promises; and trusting that His goodness and faithfulness will see us through life’s ups and downs. May we be so full of Him that the fruits of His Spirit in us are evident to those around us – as we serve and love them! (Philippians 4:6-9)
