Daily Devotional for August 3, 2021

“When the Lord saw that Leah was unloved, he enabled her to have children, but Rachel could not conceive.” Genesis 29:31

Osteen REminds us that we all have special favor upon our lives, so let us not live in comparison to others. The scripture highlighted from Genesis 29:31 says, “When the Lord saw that Leah was unloved, he enabled her to have children, but Rachel could not conceive.” God gifts us with what He sees fit for us in our uniqueness, ability, and attributes. As we may look on at others, let us REmember things are not always what they seem. Everything that glitters ain’t gold, and many people smile through the pain and laugh to keep from crying. Therefore, BE grateful for the life you have BEen given.

Leviticus 12

Let us not only BE mindful of what God the Father puts within our minds and hearts to BE able to do, but let us also BE mindful for what we put in our bodies. Leviticus 11:47 wraps up God’s message to us about clean and unclean animals saying, “By these instructions you will know what is unclean and clean, and which animals may be eaten and which may not be eaten.” Our bodies are temples; let us BE mindful of what we digest mentally, spiritually, and physically.

REflection from Awesome God: Midyear Prayer and Fasting

In today’s message from “Awesome God: Midyear Prayer and Fasting” it spoke about how our Father guided the Israelites out of a no-way-out situation. We have to REmember that He is our ultimate compass. When we cannot see or imagine how we will get to and T.H.R.O.U.G.H. (Trials, Hurt, Regrets, Obstacles, Uncertainty, Guilt, Heartbreak), we only have to give in and let our GPS (God’s Plan Supersedes) guide us.

Ecclesiastes 12:13

Let us always REverence His name and REspect His ways as we work to abide with and obey Him. 🙏🏽💚🦋🌈

Taste and see His goodness this Tuesday, my friend.
