Whose Side Is Your Body On?

OneWalk: Under the Sun, with the Son

Today’s Bible Verse, Reading, Devotion, Worship Song and Prayer

Today’s verse

As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins, in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient. All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of our flesh and following its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature deserving of wrath.
Ephesians 2:1-3

Today’s reading
Ephesians 2

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ephesians+2&version=NLT

Ephesians 2:7-10 NLT
[7] So God can point to us in all future ages as examples of the incredible wealth of his grace and kindness toward us, as shown in all he has done for us who are united with Christ Jesus. [8] God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. [9] Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it. [10] For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.

Do you ever feel as if your body is on the other side, fighting against you? Perhaps you’re trying to lose weight but your cravings always get the better of you. Or perhaps, as you age, you begin to feel aches and pains that you never had before. Or, more seriously, maybe you’re fighting a disease that threatens to take your life. Your body just doesn’t seem to be on your side.

Today’s prayer
Dear God, Abba Father, Jesus my Lord and Savior. even though I have been saved by your grace, I can still feel the cravings of my sinful flesh luring me to turn away from your life. Help me, I pray, to desire you more than anything else I might want. Give me the strength to resist when my flesh tempts me to sin. May I live each day with the understanding that my body is a temple of your Spirit. May I honor you, not just with my mind and heart, but also with my body, every single part. To you be all the glory! Amen.

OneWalk: Under the Sun, with the Son

Today’s Bible Verse, Reading, Devotion, Worship Song and Prayer

Today’s verse

Yet God has made everything beautiful for its own time. He has planted eternity in the human heart, but even so, people cannot see the whole scope of God’s work from beginning to end. Ecclesiastes 3:11 NLT

Today’s reading
Ecclesiastes 3

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ecclesiastes+3&version=NLT

A Time for Everything

[1] For everything there is a season, a time for every activity under heaven.
[2] A time to be born and a time to die. A time to plant and a time to harvest.
[3] A time to kill and a time to heal. A time to tear down and a time to build up.
[4] A time to cry and a time to laugh. A time to grieve and a time to dance.
[5] A time to scatter stones and a time to gather stones. A time to embrace and a time to turn away.
[6] A time to search and a time to quit searching. A time to keep and a time to throw away.
[7] A time to tear and a time to mend. A time to be quiet and a time to speak.
[8] A time to love and a time to hate. A time for war and a time for peace. …
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 NLT

Today’s devotion
Jesus Calling

MEET ME IN MORNING STILLNESS, while the earth is fresh with the dew of My Presence. Worship Me in the beauty of holiness. Sing love songs to My holy Name. As you give yourself to Me, My Spirit swells within you till you are flooded with divine Presence.

The world’s way of pursuing riches is grasping and hoarding. You attain My riches by letting go and giving. The more you give yourself to Me and My ways, the more I fill you with inexpressible, heavenly Joy.

Give unto the Lord the glory due to His name; worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.
—Psalm 29:2 nkjv

Those who know your name will trust in you, for you, Lord, have never forsaken those who seek you.
—Psalm 9:10

Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy.
—1 Peter 1:8

Today’s prayer
Dear God, Abba Father, Jesus my Lord and Savior in and through the Holy Spirit within me. I come to You for rest in Your peace. To renew my mind, body and spirit. For I now only with and in You can I find what I need. Rest without sleeping. Peace without understanding. For I do believe You planted the seed to know, worship and have relationship with You in our hearts. And only when we do are we made complete as You created us to be. So I come and do that which I have learned I must do. Spend time with You in Your Word, worship You with song and love You through prayer. Meet me now, in the stillness of my heart. Amen

Help me to confidently wait for You to do and finish Your work. A man after a Your own heart above all. Amen

What’s Even Worse Than A Bad Boss?Life for Leaders Daily Devotion https://mailchi.mp/depree.org/whats-even-worse-than-a-bad-boss?e=1bc587c115

To put the matter bluntly, we who live on this earth have a bad boss, an evil, deceitful ruler who seeks to hurt us, ruin this world, and dishonor God in every way possible. Of course, in many segments of the western world today, belief in personified evil is mocked as antiquated and naïve. Yet, biblical teaching is clear that evil does not reside only in human hearts and human cultures. It is concentrated in a supernatural being who, though in no way God’s equal, has the power (and the powers) to influence our lives. Before we were set free from this power by God’s grace, we lived under it, even if we denied its existence.

More Than Anything
Natalie Granthttps://itunes.apple.com/us/album/more-than-anything/1046389034?i=1046389047

Today’s prayer
Dear God, Abba Father, Jesus my Lord and Savior. You know, the existence of Satan is something I (we) would rather ignore. It can feel so old-fashioned to speak of Satan, so un-hip and naïve. Plus, I’m not at all happy about the idea that some supernatural being has the power to influence my life. Yet, I am committed to trusting Scripture, even when its truth is something I’d rather avoid. Help me to know and believe what is true. Lord, as I am confronted today with the reality of personified evil, I am grateful for the implicit good news, namely, that I once walked according to the ruler of the kingdom of the air, but do so no longer because of your grace in Christ. Help me to live as a free person, free from evil’s grasp, free to serve you fully in every part of life. I love You, I’m sorry, forgive me, thank You. Amen.
