This Week’s Theme: Be Still
July 18, 2018
“Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still.
Psalm 4:4
One way to overcome the temptation to live in sin and yield to the flesh is to take time to stand in awe of God and be still. Do you struggle at times with the question, “Is it worth it to follow God?” You are not alone. Satan is as much a distractor as he is a deceiver. He will continue to distract you from an awareness of the awe of the God of the universe, the creator of all things, the provider of your salvation. To keep a heart warm toward God, follow the instructions of today’s verse by standing in awe of God, sin not, and commune with your own heart on your bed by meditating on the greatness of God.
I pray for God’s awesome presence in your life today.

This Week’s Theme: God Is Our Refuge – by Ken Turner, July 13, 2018
Psalm 71:3
Be my strong refuge, To which I may resort continually; You have given the commandment to save me, For You are my rock and my fortress.
Thought for today…
People are creatures of habit. We make choices, and those choices become habits in our life. Think of the statement, “He always resorts to ___________.”
If someone made the above statement about you, what would they put in the blank? “You always resort to_____________________.”
Anger, blaming others, complaining, excuses, drugs, alcohol, sexual sin, quitting, running away from a problem, etc.
What if you changed and people could say, “You always resort to God as your refuge and strength.”

This Week’s Theme: God Is Our Refuge – by Ken Turner, July 12, 2018
Psalm 62:8
Trust in Him at all times, you people; Pour out your heart before Him; God is a refuge for us.
Thought for today…
When you rely on God as your refuge, two things will become part of your relationship. First, you will trust Him at all times in all situations and second, you will pour out your heart to Him because He is your refuge.

Psalm 59:16
But I will sing of Your power; Yes, I will sing aloud of Your mercy in the morning; For You have been my defense And refuge in the day of my trouble.
Thought for today…
When you rely on God as your defense in times of trouble, He will put a song of joy in your heart. Your heart will turn from sadness to singing, and your perspective will shift from defeated to victorious.
