Abundant Life Today

Today"s Scripture

"I came that they may have life and have it abundantly" (John 10:10, ESV).

Today"s Word from Joel and Victoria

Are you living the abundant life Jesus came to give you? You may not have the biggest house or newest car, but God promises abundant life for you. His abundant life goes way beyond the things we can see in the natural. His abundant life means that you can have peace in the midst of a storm. You can have joy when things are uncertain. You can have hope when circumstances seem hopeless. You can live and enjoy life to the fullest every single day because you have the Creator of Life on the inside of you. Sometimes is easy to look at this verse and think, "God is going to give me abundant life some day" but the truth is, God wants you to have an abundant life TODAY. Ask the Lord to show you His true abundance today. Ask Him to show you His abundant favor, blessing, and peace. As you focus on God"s abundance today and everyday, your life will feel more satisfying and you will be overflowing in His abundance the way God intended!

A Prayer for Today

God, I know that You want the best for me. Thank you for your promise of abundant life on this earth. Teach me to share your abundance with others. I love you and bless you today. In Jesus" Name, amen.

Trust Him

Today"s Scripture

"Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will make straight your paths" (Proverbs 3:5-6 ESV).

Do you need God"s direction in your life? Often times, the Lord will instruct your heart to do something that"s just the opposite of what your natural mind thinks you should do. It doesn't make sense, but God"s principals are very different from the world"s principals. In the natural, it doesn't make sense that if you are in need, you should give to someone-you should sow a seed. But you can trust God"s Word that says "what you sow, you shall reap." You can trust that God"s system is set up for your good. His system is set up to prosper you and not harm you. He wants to give you a future and a hope. As you step out and trust God and obey His word-even when you don"t understand-He promises to direct your paths. He promises that your path will shine brighter and brighter every single day!

A Prayer for Today

Thank You, God, for directing my path today. Thank You for opening my heart to trust You today. Keep me close to You and teach me to hear Your voice so that I may please You all the days of my life. In Jesus" Name. Amen.
