October 10 Devotional

Posted on October 10, 2012 by drscott

Dearly Beloved,

This first sentence hit home with me.  Although I know deep down that I can control nothing in this world, it doesn’t keep me from trying!  My personal prayer for me today is to let go and let God.  Now, it doesn’t mean that I won’t be planning, for failing to plan is planning to fail!  However, a balance between planning, controlling and trusting is always needed.  May this day be blessed for your and yours.  Peace, Scott

_________________________________________________________________________________
Trust Me Enough
to let things happen without striving to predict or control them.  Relax, and refresh yourself in the Light of My everlasting Love.  My Love-Light never dims, yet you are often unaware of My radiant Presence.  When you project yourself into the future, rehearsing what you will do or say, you are seeking to be self sufficient: to be adequate without My help.  This is a subtle sin-so common that it usually slips by unnoticed.

The alternative is to live fully in the present, depending on Me each moment.  Rather than fearing your inadequacy, rejoice in My abundant supply.  Train your mind to seek My help continually, even when you feel competent to handle something by yourself.  Don’t divide your life into things you can do yourself and things that require My help.  Instead, learn to rely on Me in every situation.  This discipline will enable you to enjoy life more and to face each day confidently. 
Psalm 37:3-6 3 Trust in the LORD and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.  4 Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart. 5 Commit your way to the LORD; trust in him and he will do this: 6 He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn, the justice of your cause like the noonday sun.

October 9 Devotional

Posted on October 9, 2012 by drscott

Dear Friends,

I pray you soak up these beautiful words today and every day.  You are loved unconditionally!  Peace, Scott
__________________________________________________________________________
I Love You
with an everlasting Love.  The human mind cannot comprehend My constancy.  Your emotions flicker and falter in the face of varying circumstances, and you tend to project your fickle feelings onto Me.  Thus, you do not benefit fully from My unfailing Love.
You need to look beyond the flux of circumstances and discover Me gazing lovingly back at you.  This awareness of My Presence strengthens you, as you receive and respond to My Love.  I am the same yesterday, today, and forever!  Let My Love flow into you continually, Your need for Me is as constant as the outflow of My Love into you.

Jeremiah 31:3 3The LORD appeared to us in the past, saying: “I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with loving-kindness.

 Exodus 15:13 13 “In your unfailing love you will lead the people you have redeemed. In your strength you will guide them to your holy dwelling.

 Hebrews 13:8 8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.

October 4 Devotional

Posted on October 4, 2012 by drscott

Dear Friends,

Ah yes!  The Spirit dwelling in US!  How cool is that!  On the heels of a fine sermon that David preached last week, we have affirmation yet again of God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit in US!  So, as you are tempted to go it alone, stop, pray and receive help when you need it most.  Never underestimate the power of the “ask”….blessings friends, Scott
_____________________________________________________________________________________
I Am The Creator Of Heaven And Earth: Lord of all that is and all that will ever be. Although I am unimaginably vast, I choose to dwell within you, permeating you with My Presence. Only in the spirit realm could Someone so infinitely great live within someone so very small. Be awed by the Power and the Glory of My Spirit within you!
Though the Holy Spirit is infinite, He deigns to be your Helper, He is always ready to offer assistance; all  you need to do is ask. When the path before you looks easy and straightforward, you may be tempted to go it alone instead of relying on Me. This is when you are in the greatest danger of stumbling. Ask My Spirit  to help you as you go each step of the way. Never neglect this glorious Source of strength within you. John 14:16-17 (NKJV)And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever— 17the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you.

John 16:7  But I tell you the truth: It is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Counselor will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.

Zechariah 4:6  So he said to me, “This is the word of the LORD to Zerubbabel: ‘Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,’ says the LORD Almighty

October 3 Devotional

Posted on October 3, 2012 by drscott

Dear Beloved Friends,

It’s so easy to complain and to blame.  As this devotional points out, once we start down that path, it’s difficult to reverse it.  We become consumed with negative thoughts, and then those thoughts can easily become actions or general apathy.  Interesting how this is our devotional for today when the first presidential debates will be happening tonight.  Pray for our country, pray for the election and pray for ourselves as we seek His will in all things.  Peace and Love, Scott

When Many Things Seem
to be going wrong, trust Me.  When your life feels increasingly out of control, thank Me, These are supernatural responses, and they can lift you above your circumstances.  If you do what comes naturally in the face of difficulties, you may fall prey to negativism.  Even a few complaints can set you on a path that is a downward spiral, by darkening your perspective and mind-set.  With this attitude controlling you, complaints flow more and more readily from your mouth.  Each one moves you steadily down the slippery spiral.  The lower you go, the faster you slide; but it is still possible to apply brakes.  Cry out to Me in My Name!  Affirm your trust in Me, regardless of how you feel.  Thank Me for everything, though this seems unnatural-even irrational.  Gradually you will begin to ascend, recovering your lost ground.

When you are back on ground level, you can face your circumstances from a humble perspective.  If you choose supernatural responses this time-trusting and thanking Me-you will experience My unfathomable Peace.

Psalm 13:5 5 But I trust in your unfailing love; my heart rejoices in your salvation.

 Ephesians 5:20 20 always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

October 2 Devotional

Posted on October 3, 2012 by drscott

Dear Friends,

These are indeed beautiful words to live by.  Knowing our first true love is the key to happiness and joy!  Unconditional love.  Nothing like it.  Be blessed friends!  You are LOVED!  Hugs, Scott

________________________________________________________________________________
Never Take For Granted My intimate nearness.  Marvel at the wonder of My continual Presence with you.  Even the most ardent human lover cannot be with you always.  Nor can another person know the intimacies of your heart, mind, and spirit. I know everything about you-even to the number of hairs on your head.  You don’t need to work at revealing yourself to Me.

Many people spend a lifetime or a small fortune searching for someone who understands them.  Yet I am freely available to all who call upon My Name, who open their hearts to receive Me.  This simple act of faith is the beginning of a lifelong love story.  I, the Lover of your soul, understand you perfectly and love you eternally.

Luke 12:7 7Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.7Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.

 John 1:12 12Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God—

 Romans 10:13 13for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
