Jeremiah 33:3, 2 Peter 1:4, 1 Kings 2:56, Psalm 119:140, Jeremiah 29:11, Matthew 17:20, Isaiah 43:18-19, Job 36:15-16, Isaiah 30:26, Psalm 37:4-5, Isaiah 41:10, 2 Chronicles 16:9, Matthew 10:34-37, Acts 16:31, Philippians 1:6, Psalm 32:8, Zephaniah 3:13
"Standing on the promises that cannot fail, when the howling storms of doubt and fear assail, by the living word of God I shall prevail, standing on the promises of God."
- I know I'm praying in line with God's will when I find a promise in the Bible and pray it into my life. I also know it will be answered.
- I Pray Psalm 90 into my life "establish the work of our hands". I get confirmation that this will come true in my life through 1 Kings 8:56 "...Not one word has failed of all the good promises He gave..."
- I can see Isaiah 43:18-19 taking place in my life right now. I am relieved when I read Job 36:15-16 and how great it will be when Isaiah 30:26 takes place in my life, our life, and in the lives of those I love. And so because of Psalm 37:4-5 I believe that what I am doing will come to pass and have a lasting effect on Me, Angela, Mia, Zarria, Nick, Savanah, Faith, and Hunter. I am encouraged to press on when I read Isaiah 41:10 "Don't fear, for I am with you...surely I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."
- 2 Chronicles 16:9 tells me that God is watching. "For the eyes of the Lord range through out the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to Him."
- It is so good to hear the Lord tell me "Cody, I will make a way in the wilderness" (Isaiah 43:19)
NOTE: I have no rhyme or reason as to why some things speak to me and some don't. I guess because God speaks to me in His time. I am learning how to listen to God through prayer and meditation. God may not reveal to you the same things He does to me because everyone is different and God has a plan for me that may be different than yours. I'm sure that if you actually open your Bible, read the scriptures I've written down, pray over them, and meditate on them that God will reveal to you what He has in store for you as He has done for me. I am confident that if you make a consistent to know God daily that He will be faithful to speak to you and show you things He has in store for you! What am I saying? This daily study is not designed to help you know what God wants for me. I'm doing it to help you all see what God has for you! If all you do is read about me, well then you'll know what God is doing for me. But if you open that book daily, pray, turn from sin, and surround yourself with people doing the same (a good place for that is church), then I'm sure God will begin sharing with you things about you just as He has done with me and then you can share those things with me. It takes some effort and sacrifice but it's rewarding and the "promises"-who really wants to miss out on those?! Wouldn't we feel stupid when we got to heaven and God showed us all He had planned for us? And we asked why didn't you give that to me? And He said because you never made an effort. You were too busy working, partying, or clicking around on the computer to figure out who I am, what I wanted and how to get it! I think by investing just 20 minutes a day we can get what it is God has for us and save us a lifetime of being stupid..just saying.
