Theme: Presence
More or less? I have found the more of God in my life the less mess in my life. This office can represent our lives. Sometimes we think more equals better, but often more just equals mess. More can make a mess of our finances, emotions, mental health, relationships and physical wellness. What we need is more of God's presence. In order to have lasting influence, we need God’s presence in our lives. Through His power at work within us, God can do more than we could ever ask or imagine (Ephesians 3:20). As we ask for blessing and influence, we also need to ask for His presence as Jabez did so that we are not operating out of our own strength but through the presence and the hand of our Almighty God.
In humility, acknowledge your need for God’s presence. Depend on Him and ask for more of Him in your life today.
Scripture: 1 Chronicles 4:10
“Let Your hand be with me...
Prayer: Presence
“Lord, I know that without You, I am nothing. I cannot do what You’ve called me to do on my own. I am desperate for Your presence in my life. I depend on You completely. I recognize that the same Spirit who raised Christ Jesus from the dead lives in me. Through the power of Your Spirit, I pray that You will help me succeed in the opportunities You’ve given me. Thank You for being with me. I would never want to face today without You.”
