And my vision is the source of my inspiration to trust only in You, and Your timing. Not mine. Help me not to lose sight of this vision. Help me to confidently wait for You to do and finish Your work. A man after a Your own heart above all. Amen

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 2:8-10 NLT
[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.

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.

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.

“My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.”

April 30, 2018

OneWalk: Under the Sun, with the Son

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

Today’s verse

And He has said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.” Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me.
2 Corinthians 12:9 nasb

Today’s reading
James 1
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=James+1&version=NLT

James 1:2-4 NLT
[2] Dear brothers and sisters, when troubles of any kind come your way, consider it an opportunity for great joy. [3] For you know that when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow. [4] So let it grow, for when your endurance is fully developed, you will be perfect and complete, needing nothing.

Today’s devotion
Jesus Calling

WHEN SOME BASIC NEED IS LACKING—time, energy, money—consider yourself blessed. Your very lack is an opportunity to latch onto Me in unashamed dependence. When you begin a day with inadequate resources, you must concentrate your efforts on the present moment. This is where you are meant to live—in the present. It is the place where I always await you. Awareness of your inadequacy is a rich blessing, training you to rely wholeheartedly on Me.

The truth is that self-sufficiency is a myth perpetuated by pride and temporary success. Health and wealth can disappear instantly, as can life itself. Rejoice in your insufficiency, knowing that My Power is made perfect in weakness.

Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance.
—James 1:2–3

Dear God, Abba Father, Jesus my Lord and Savior. I am already convinced I cannot make it without You. Whether just getting ready, or all the moments throughout the day when I cry out. I know I must stay connected to You to make it through it. Praying always that my complete dependence on You and Your presence in me be visible to those seeing me struggle through the moment. For I know You use all things for the good, use me then Jesus. Use me. Amen

God chose you to be the holy people, “You Can’t Take It Or Leave It”

April 29, 2018

OneWalk: Under the Sun, with the Son

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

Today’s verse

Colossians 3:12-15 NLT
[12] Since God chose you to be the holy people he loves, you must clothe yourselves with tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. [13] Make allowance for each other’s faults, and forgive anyone who offends you. Remember, the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others. [14] Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds us all together in perfect harmony. [15] And let the peace that comes from Christ rule in your hearts. For as members of one body you are called to live in peace. And always be thankful.

Today’s reading
Philippians 2
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Philippians+2&version=NLT

Philippians 2:1-2 NLT
[1] Is there any encouragement from belonging to Christ? Any comfort from his love? Any fellowship together in the Spirit? Are your hearts tender and compassionate? [2] Then make me truly happy by agreeing wholeheartedly with each other, loving one another, and working together with one mind and purpose.

Today’s devotion
“You Can’t Take It Or Leave It”
Life for Leaders Daily Devotion
https://mailchi.mp/depree.org/you-cant-take-it-or-leave-it?e=1bc587c115

In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:
Who, being in very nature God,
did not consider equality with God something to be used
to his own advantage;
rather, he made himself nothing
by taking the very nature of a servant,
being made in human likeness.
And being found in appearance as a man,
he humbled himself
by becoming obedient to death—
even death on a cross!
Philippians 2:5-8

This is what it means to humble oneself. This is what it means to serve one another. This is what it means to hear someone else’s story and honor it, value it, and treasure it. This is what it means to enter into relationship with another person, another group of people.

Today’s prayer
Dear God, Abba Father, Jesus my Lord and Savior. We need to humbly come to the table with open hearts, minds, eyes and ears. Remembering where we would be and end up if not for You Jesus. We must live and share and walk accordingly. Lord, we all have a long way to go before we have the same mindset as Christ, but I want to try. I want to cast off earthly power and position and popularity in favor of serving you and serving others. I don’t really know where to begin with that, but I am willing. Here I am. Amen.

Joyfully Building Brave Spaces

April 29, 2018

OneWalk: Under the Sun, with the Son

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

Today’s verse

Joyful is the person who finds wisdom, the one who gains understanding.
Proverbs 3:13 NLT

Today’s reading
Proverbs 3
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs+3&version=NLT

Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take. Proverbs 3:5-6 NLT

Today’s devotion
Building Brave Spaces
Life for Leaders Daily Devotion
https://mailchi.mp/depree.org/building-brave-spaces?e=1bc587c115

David said to the Philistine, “You come against me with sword and spear and javelin, but I come against you in the name of the LORD Almighty, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied. This day the LORD will deliver you into my hands, and I’ll strike you down and cut off your head. This very day I will give the carcasses of the Philistine army to the birds and the wild animals, and the whole world will know that there is a God in Israel. All those gathered here will know that it is not by sword or spear that the Lord saves; for the battle is the Lord’s, and he will give all of you into our hands.” 1 Samuel 17:45-47

Brave spaces are transformational.

Brave spaces draw a person out and give them the opportunity to be transformed. Alternatively, safe spaces often make it safe for me to stay the way I am. Brave spaces invite vulnerability, while safe spaces often keep me shielded from growth. David’s brothers and the rest of Saul’s army chose safety when facing Goliath. But God calls us out of hiding and into the light, where we are invited to partner with God in miraculous acts that bring a new way of living. We may not slay actual giants, but bravery can certainly transform our perspective and grow our capacity for love.

Today’s prayer
Dear God, Abba Father, Jesus my Lord and Savior. In Your wisdom is the key to understanding that which we don’t understand. So I seek Your will above all. Knowing that it will take me out of my safe space. Lord, I like safety, the peace of feeling connected to You. I like knowing my loved ones are blessed and protected. Help me to know when to choose safety, when to be brave, and when to choose both. Help me to walk by faith. Trusting only in You. Amen.

What Do You Want?

April 27, 2018

OneWalk: Under the Sun, with the Son

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

Today’s verse

Fear of the LORD is the foundation of wisdom. Knowledge of the Holy One results in good judgment.
Proverbs 9:10 NLT

Today’s reading
Proverbs 9
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs+9&version=NLT

Proverbs 9:10— The “foundation [or beginning] of wisdom” is the “fear of the Lord.” And the beginning of wisdom, according to the apostle Paul, often appears foolish to “those who are headed for destruction.” Why? Because “the message of the cross” seems like a message of weakness, when it is actually “the very power of God”( 1 Corinthians 1:18-20 ).

Today’s devotion
What Do You Want?

My Utmost for His Highest
https://utmost.org/what-do-you-want/

Do you seek great things for yourself?
Jeremiah 45:5

Are you seeking great things for yourself, instead of seeking to be a great person? God wants you to be in a much closer relationship with Himself than simply receiving His gifts— He wants you to get to know Him.

Fear Is a Liar

Today’s prayer
Dear God, Abba Father, Jesus my Lord and Savior. It can be so complicated and confusing if we try to think about it, or understand it. Yet with the innocence and mind of a child, free from the corruption under the sun, we can begin to find that which we seek. Fear is a liar. And it hides and disguises itself with it’s only purpose to separate us from You, the very thing and only thing we do need to fear. Help me Jesus, grant me that wisdom I need each stay to fulfill Your will, be a light for others and stay connected to You. No more. Amen
