ENJOY THE MOMENT

Text :  Matthew 6:34

"Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.”

 *Life often feels heavy when we carry yesterday’s regrets and tomorrow’s fears into today.* 

God never asked us to live all our days at once. He invites us to live one day at a time. Jesus said in Matthew 6:11 that "give us today our daily bread". This shows that God gives provision to us on a daily basis.

Each morning is a gift. Even when circumstances are difficult, God’s grace is present for today. The strength you need, the wisdom you seek, and the peace you long for are released daily, not in advance. Like the manna in the wilderness, God provides just enough for the moment (Exodus 16:4).

 *Enjoying the moment does not mean denying pain or pretending everything is perfect. It means choosing faith over fear and gratitude over anxiety.* It means recognizing God’s hand in small mercies, like a  breath of air, a kind word, a beautiful song with meaningful lyrics; they are  all quiet reminders that you are not alone. 

When we focus on the present, we notice that God is already at work, even in situations we do not understand.

Paul reminds us, “I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances” (Philippians 4:11). Contentment grows when we release control of our lives to God and we rest in His sovereignty. 

Today may not look like what you hoped for, but it is still held by God. He has good plans for your life. He says in Jeremiah 29:11 that, *For I know the plans that I have for you,’ declares the LORD, ‘plans for well-being, and not for calamity, in order to give you a future and a hope.* 

So, take today as it comes. Pray for today’s grace. Walk in today’s obedience. Celebrate today’s blessings. Leave tomorrow in God’s hands, He is already there.

*BIBLE READING* : 

Matthew 6:25-34.

 *PRAYER FOCUS* 

Father, help me to live fully in today. Teach me to trust You moment by moment and to find joy in Your presence in Jesus name.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

WHEN GOD IS SILENT(2)

Text: Matthew 4:1  *Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.*  We saw yesterday that God was not pleased with many israelites that left Egypt for the promised land  (Corinthians 10:5).  A good percentage of the Israelites were overthrown in the wilderness.   Wilderness experience is not what any child of God desires, but it is an experience God sends or allows his children go through. In Deuteronomy 8:2, God says that He *LED* the Isrealites through the wilderness for forty years to humble them, to prove them, and to know what was in their heart whether they would keep his commandments or not.  Our Lord Jesus Christ was also *LED* into the wilderness by the Spirit of the Lord to be tempted by the devil. You will  notice there is a similar feature of the number *40(forty)* between these two wilderness experiences. That is, that of the Israelites and our Lord Jesus Christ. The Israelites spent 40years, Jesu...
