‘I am the Good Shepherd, and I know without any doubt those who are My own and My own know Me and have a deep, personal relationship with Me.’

You and I are designed and destined for relationship with the Lord.
He knows you, and He knows everything about you.
He is your Good Shepherd Who will lead you and guide you.
Don’t do life alone, but develop your relationship with your Good Shepherd.

Prayer: Lord, thank You that You are the One Who knows me and there is no doubt about that. As my Shepherd, You will lead me, You will guide me, and You will show me which is the best pathway for my life. Amen.

Daily Bible Verse:              Psalm 37:23

‘The LORD directs the steps of the godly. He delights in every detail of their lives.’

Imagine how great God is that He takes time to direct the very steps we take.
He knows what the best path for you is, and He will direct you all the way.
As you go out today, remember that each step can be directed by Him.
Step forward with confidence, knowing that He knows and He cares for you.

Prayer: Lord, as I step into the future, please would You guide and direct my steps. As I take each step, cause me to follow the path that You have prepared for me, and thank You for Your love and care for me. Amen.

Daily Bible Verse:              1 Corinthians 3:10

‘And each one must be careful how he builds.’

Everything we do and each word we say either builds or breaks down.
Every day is part of the process of building on our foundation in God.
Just because we face a tough season does not mean we lose focus.
Every moment and every action matters, so build with perseverance. 

Prayer: Lord, thank You for this brand new day that You have given me. May I use every precious moment and every opportunity to build in such a way that my life can have a lasting influence for You. Amen.

Daily Bible Verse:              Isaiah 3:10

‘Say to the righteous (the godly) that it will go well with them, for they will eat the fruit of their [righteous] actions.’

Doing the right thing brings blessing and favour into our lives.
As His children we should be focussed on doing what pleases Him.
I say to you: ‘Everything will be alright and it will go well with you!’
So carry on loving and serving God, and He will take care of everything else.

Prayer: Lord, it is my intention and desire to follow You and honour You in all I say and do. I trust that You will work out all the things that I am facing, for my good and for Your honour and praise. Amen.

Oh how great is the Lord’s love and care for you and me.
He will never abandon us and He will give His angels charge over us.
As His faithful children we are under His constant care.
In His love and care for us He will lead, guide, and protect us in ALL our ways.

Prayer: Lord, thank You for the way in which You take care of me. Thank You that You protect me, You guard me and You defend me, and therefore I can rest in the safety of Your presence in my life. Amen.

The LORD says, ‘I will rescue those who love Me. I will protect those who trust in My Name.’

We have the joy and the privilege of living a life of dependence on God.
We can rely on Him, we can trust in Him and we can live with hope in our hearts.
He promises to rescue us and to protect us.
You can have complete confidence and trust in the Lord Who loves you.

Prayer: Lord, thank You for Your great love and care for me. I can proclaim that You are my Lord and my God. I love You and I trust in You, my God. Amen.

Daily Bible Verse:              Psalm 91:15

‘When he calls to Me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will rescue him and honour him.’

You can call on the Lord right now to intervene in your situation.
He is not too busy to hear your heart’s call.
He is ready, willing and able to respond and restore.
He is the One to Whom you can turn for the help and protection you need.

Daily Bible Verse:              1 Corinthians 6:19

‘Don’t you realise that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, Who lives in you and was given to you by God?’

Did you realise that God Himself lives in you?
This takes our existence from natural, and makes it supernatural.
We can know and enjoy that fact that the Spirit of God lives within us.
He wants to come and occupy every part of your lives and make you whole.

Prayer: Lord, thank You that my body can be a sacred dwelling in which You, by Your Holy Spirit, can live and dwell. May I never underestimate the One Who lives within my heart. Amen.

Daily Bible Verse:              Matthew 5:14

‘You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden.’

Our lives matter!
We can have an influence in the world around us.
Our lives can shine and reflect the light of God into the darkness.
Let your light shine, and reach out to touch and lift a desperate world.

Prayer: Lord, thank You that I can shine Your light into the situations around me. Help me to bring hope, joy and inspiration to those who need hope and encouragement. Amen.

LEAD ME TO THE ROCK - Pastor Andrew W Roebert

This week I wrote the latest set of notes that I want to send to you today. They are entitled ‘IN THE CLEFT OF THE ROCK’. I just wanted to remind you that the best place you can be in right now is as close as you can get to the Lord. He has a place for you, close to him, in the cleft of the rock.
Many years ago, during a challenging time in my life, someone gave me this picture. It is a picture of a child in the hand or God. It meant a lot to me at the time, and I knew I had filed it somewhere. I found it, and I wanted to show it to you. I believe that the Lord is our Rock, and He wants to hold you in the cleft of His scarred hands.
