Daily Prayer_June 10, 2011

The Word for wisdom:

Proverbs 10:17 (HCSB)
17 The one who follows instruction is on the path to life, but the one who rejects correction goes astray.

The Word for inspiration:

Psalm 91:5-6 (HCSB)
5 You will not fear the terror of the night, the arrow that flies by day,
6 the plague that stalks in darkness, or the pestilence that ravages at noon.

The Word for encouragement:

1 Thessalonians 5:8-11 (HCSB)
8 But since we are of the day, we must be sober and put the armor of faith and love on our chests, and put on a helmet of the hope of salvation.
9 For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,
10 who died for us, so that whether we are awake or asleep, we will live together with Him.
11 Therefore encourage one another and build each other up as you are already doing.

My observation:

Yesterday we talked about having the patience to wait until the appointed time. Today's passage talks about how we should wait for the blessed hope of salvation that God has appointed the believers to.  This truth should encourage our hearts, and greatly influence the way we live our lives.


The believer has so much to be thankful to the Lord for. What a blessing it is to know that you have been appointed by God to salvation, and not to wrath.


John 5:24 (HCSB)
24 "I assure you: Anyone who hears My word and believes Him who sent Me has eternal life and will not come under judgment but has passed from death to life.


How then shall we live? Paul had a good answer for that question. Hear and heed what he says to the church then because it applies to us today.


1 Thessalonians 5:11 (HCSB)
11 Therefore encourage one another and build each other up as you are already doing.


Like the Apostle John, we can pray this prayer every day because of what our Savior has done for us. Members of the Body of Christ, let us encourage and build up one another until he comes.


Revelation 22:20 (HCSB)
20 He who testifies about these things says, "Yes, I am coming quickly." Amen! Come, Lord Jesus!

My prayer:

Father God, Abba, Father, I am so grateful that I am included in that number that have been appointed for salvation. Father, help me to live every day as one who belongs to Jesus, and who is a child of the King. Amen! Come, Lord Jesus!
