Daily Devotional for November 24, 2020

“I know, my God, that you test the heart and are pleased with integrity. All these things I have given willingly and with honest intent. And now I have seen with joy how willingly your people who are here have given to you.” ‭‭1 Chronicles‬ ‭29:17‬ ‭

The scripture associated with Osteen’s message this morning reads: “I know, my God, that you test the heart and are pleased with integrity” (1 Chronicles 29:17). The past few weeks I REalize now that I have BEen challenged, and didn’t REcognize until now that when I finally let go of the matter and gave it to the Father, things BEgan to work in my favor. Sunday evening I was moved by words spoken by Pastor Keion Henderson, that I stopped putting off developing my EGOcentric canvas for 2021. I was so focused on the things that I wanted to accomplish, but God REminded that I also needed to focus on trials that I want to triumph over. As I placed the matter on the canvas and in His hands that night, things BEgan to turnaround and work for my good. One blessing after another has BEen REvealed—even this morning. So as RElayed through this morning’s message, “Let go, and God will fight your battles.”

Exodus 28

In the same manner that our Father was detailed with the specifics of the garments of those who were to serve as priests for Him in Exodus 28, He wants to BE that detailed with the plans He has for our lives. For that REason, we must continue to wait patiently for Him to ensure the smallest detail is in order for what He is preparing for our lives and for us to REceive. I can only imagine how BEautiful our final product will BE, embellishing all that He has already done in our lives. We are living our latter now, and our BEst is truly yet to come.

REflection from Ready to Unlock the Kingdom of God

Let us keep focused on the fact that God wants to give us the keys to the kingdom and whatever heaven has for us to access as REferenced in Matthew 6:10. As the author Paul Marc Goulet REminds us this morning, “You influence earthly kingdoms because God’s Kingdom is inside of you. It's time for you to bring heaven to earth, but first you must access it by faith in the power of Jesus Christ.” What is God leading you to bring into fruition by taking a bold step or leap in faith? Stop denying what He has put in you and allow it to be birthed out of you.

Proverbs 12:25

Let us not wait for others to speak over our lives. May we speak over ourselves, for we are the ones who have control over what we think, say, and do, for whatever we think we BEcome. 🙏🏽💚🦋🌈

Think on things to test your thoughts and change your trajectory this Tuesday, my friend.
