Daily Bible Reading - Saturday - February 27th

Are y’all keeping up with Leviticus?  I know with a book like this it’s easy to just skip it.  I know that’s how I feel about it sometimes but then we wouldn’t be reading the “whole" bible if we skip over places, would we?

In Mark we are getting close to reading about the crucifixion again.  I really like reading the 4 gospels because they all have a different view of the whole story.  When the father of the little boy that was demon possessed asked Jesus for help and said “if you can" Jesus quickly replied “What do you mean “if"?"  the man admitted he had unbelief but asked for help. Here is the part that I like, Jesus said “Anything is possible if a person believes."  How many times have we missed out on something just because we had unbelief?  Unbelief can destroy a person if they let it.  Reading that sure makes me sit here and think where I have unbelief in my life and to make sure and get it out. We really don’t have any room for unbelief in our lives and we sure don’t want to disappoint God with unbelief in our lives.

Today’s Reading

Leviticus 20:22-22:16
Mark 9:1-29

Daily Devotional

"…take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ"
(2 Corinthians 10:5, NIV)

Do you ever feel like things in your life are out of control? Usually that happens when we allow our cir****tances to dictate our thoughts and attitudes. You might say, "Well, Joel, the economy is wreaking havoc on my business." Or "This relationship is just too far gone." But I say, today is the day to take your life back! We live in this natural realm, but as believers, we are not limited by this natural realm. We can tap into God's supernatural power, but it starts by making every thought line up with the Word of God.

Today, take your life back by taking your thoughts back. Don't allow the enemy to have access any longer. Instead, meditate on the Word of God daily and allow His truth to sink down deep into your spirit. Let His truth make you free.

Today, as you take captive every thought and boldly declare His promises over your life, you are setting yourself up for victory. You are positioning yourself to partake of every spiritual blessing He has in store for you!

A PRAYER FOR TODAY

Heavenly Father, thank You for empowering me to live in victory today. I choose to take my life back by taking captive every thought and submitting it to You. Help me live a life that is pleasing to You, Jesus, today and every day. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
