The Word of God for wisdom:
Proverbs 21:13 (HCSB)
13 The one who shuts his ears to the cry of the poor will himself also call out and not be answered.
The Word of God for inspiration:
Psalm 34:7 (HCSB)
7 The Angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear Him, and rescues them.
The Word of God for encouragement:
1 Corinthians 10:12-13 (HCSB)
12 So, whoever thinks he stands must be careful not to fall.
13 No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to humanity. God is faithful, and He will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation He will also provide a way of escape so that you are able to bear it.
My observation:
The faithfulness of God to his people is evident in all of the scriptures passages that I read this morning. Let's open our hearts to what the Lord has to say to us from his word.
What a blessing it is to know that when we face temptations and trials in this world that there is a God in heaven who watches over his beloved people. God knows us, and he cares for us more than anyone else in the whole world. You can trust him to provide a way of escape; you can trust him to provide an open door.
No matter what you are going through, you can rest in the blessed assurance that God is bigger than any of your problems. Let go of fear and the failure of self-help, and give everything to God in prayer.
Psalm 91:11 (HCSB)
11 For He will give His angels orders concerning you, to protect you in all your ways.
Hebrews 1:14 (HCSB)
14 Are they not all ministering spirits sent out to serve those who are going to inherit salvation?
My prayer:
Our Father in heaven, my dear Father, I am so thankful that I know and serve a God who is able to do what he says he will do, and is faithful to do it.
Father God, I am so grateful for your loving care, tender mercies, and amazing grace that you shower so abundantly upon your believing people. In Jesus name, Amen.

1 Corinthians 1:2-3 (HCSB)
2 To God's church at Corinth, to those who are sanctified in Christ Jesus and called as saints, with all those in every place who call on the name of Jesus Christ our Lord—⌊both⌋ their Lord and ours.
3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
