God The Defender | Isaiah 1:17 | Christian Daily Devotional | Christian-Meditations.com

Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed. Take up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow.
Isaiah 1:17

Why do you think in the scripture so many times God asks us to defend the fatherless and help the widows and orphans?

I think it’s because often, they can’t defend themselves.

God wants us to help those who can’t help themselves.

Widows, elders, orphans, fatherless….. they are all just as precious in his sight as the next person.

If they need help we should show them love and stand up for them.

Are you familiar with the Lorax?

The Dr. Seuss character who spoke up for the trees?

He stood up for the trees because they couldn’t stand up and speak for themselves.

This is a very biblical principle!

Any time you see an injustice, it is your duty to stand up and seek justice.

Seek out the right thing and the righteous path.

I know its hard and I know we sometimes fail, but It’s something we should work on and strive for, especially in today’s world.

Evil is around every corner, and if we don’t seek justice and speak up, who will?

Prayer: God give me the courage I need to stand up for what’s right. In every conversation, in every situation, please help me to seek justice and stand up for those people who can’t stand up for themselves. The ones that you love just as dearly as I and you call them your children just as I am one of your children, please help me to always help them when I am given the opportunity and help me to even seek out opportunities to help and do the right thing. Thank you for your grace and love on this journey, in Jesus’ name, Amen.

Keeping Up With The Joneses | Exodus 20:17 | Christian Daily Devotional | Christian-Meditations.com
You shall not covet your neighbor’s house. You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, or his male or female servant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.
Exodus 20:17

Keeping up with the Jones’s’…..does that sound familiar to you?
It probably does.
In today’s society, we are brought up in a world where imagery and advertising WANTS us to constantly want more and wants us to consume more product.
This is not a Godly standard of thinking, but a very worldly one.
God tells us not to covet and desire something that our neighbor has.
It’s okay to want nice things and to want better for your family, but when it gets to the point of lustful desire for these things or desiring the status that comes with these things, that is where the problem begins.
We should find contentment in the place that we are.
God brings us all through many stages and steps on our journeys, and we are not expected to be in the same place at the same time.
I would like to encourage you to find peace and contentment through gratitude.
A daily practice of gratitude and thankfulness will open doors to more blessings than you would believe!

Prayer: God I am so grateful for my special and unique journey that you are guiding me on. I am so thankful for the place I am and the things you are teaching me in this place. I also look forward to the future walking with you and the many steps that will come in due time. Thank you for guiding me into my best life! In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Acceptance | Romans 15:7 | Christian Daily Devotional | Christian-Meditations.com
Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring praise to God.
Romans 15:7

Do you struggle with accepting other people as they are?
Christ accepted you and I when we were but sinners.
We were and still are imperfect.
We were covered in sin, and yet, He loved and accepted us just the same.
In the body of Christ, we are commanded to accept one another, just like Christ accepted us.
This will bring glory, honor, and praise to Father God.
We are not called to clean the fish, but simply to go fishing in faith.
When we ‘catch’ people up in the Gospel of Truth, and they come to the kingdom, we should accept them.
It isn’t our job to judge or cast them out because they may look a little different from us.
Sometimes other people’s sin is so glaring to us because it just looks different from our own.
What would we have done if Christ rejected us when we called to him?
We wouldn’t stand a chance.
So I encourage you believers, to be accepting of your fellow man and woman.
Love each other as you love yourself and as Christ loves us all.

Prayer: Father God, thank you for accepting me when I called to you from the depths of despair! Thank you for loving me and making me a new creation! I truly believe that those you call you will guide and mold and make into new creations also. Help me to love and bestow kindness upon your sheep just as you do. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

You Are Not Defeated | 1 Corinthians 15:57 | Christian Daily Devotional | Christian-Meditations.com
But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
1 Corinthians 15:57

Sometimes we feel defeated.
Whether the mundane parts of daily life get to us, our day in and day out responsibilities, jobs, etc. start to weigh us down, we can always look back to this scripture.
God gives us hope that we can make it through anything because the victory already belongs to us through faith in Jesus Christ.
God is a God of 11th hour miracles so even when all seems lost, just keep the faith and God will come through for you.
Sometimes we don’t understand what is going on, but most of the time in hindsight we can see God’s hand working for us and keeping us the entire time we were struggling.

Prayer: God please help me to focus on you in the midst of all of my battles. Help me to know that you have already given me victory in Jesus Christ and help me to be assured that the victory is on its way. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Trusting God's Promises | Isaiah 55:8 | Christian Daily Devotional | Christian-Meditations.com
For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord. Isaiah 55:8

Sometimes when we face situations in life, things just don’t add up.
We may have a vision of something that God has promised us, but when we look at that and think about how it will come to pass, it may seem impossible.
Nothing is impossible with God! He has a different way of moving, thinking, and creating than we do!

He is omniscient and omnipresent, so it’s only natural that his ways are higher and beyond our comprehension sometimes.
When you’re looking forward to the promises God has for your life, and you are trying to understand things, it’s okay if you don’t totally grasp how it will happen.
Just have faith!

Faith is believing in the things that are unseen, but that you know are true and real.
Add your faith to the equation and watch what God will do in your life!
Prayer: Father God I know my ways and thoughts are not your ways of doing things. You know all and see all, so through faith, I trust that you will bring the work you started in me and in my life to full fruition in due time. Thank you for your promises and for taking care of everything in the Spirit realm to bring to pass your promises for us here on Earth. I love you, In Jesus’ name, Amen.

No More Striving | Proverbs 16:3 | Christian Daily Devotional | Christian-Meditations.com

Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.
Proverbs 16:3

I’ve had friends in my life that didn’t feel complete or didn’t feel that they were doing the Lord’s work because they didn’t have a title like “Pastor” or “Deacon” or “Missionary”. My heart has always broken for them because obviously not everyone is going to be on a church board or have a title in front of a bunch of people. This doesn’t mean that your work that you do for God means any less! Imagine the church as a body how it is described in the Bible. Some people might have more obvious jobs, like the eyes or mouth, but the pinky toe is just as important! Without balance, we can’t move forward. A body can’t walk properly without toes! We all have to work together to keep the entire body functioning properly. We won’t all have the more flashy titles or the jobs with obvious recognition, but we can’t be worried about that. We must continue to do all things as we’re doing them for Christ. Even going to your job on a daily basis you can make a difference in the lives of the people you come in contact with.

Prayer: Lord please help me to do every job, every task, every thing in life as if I’m doing it for Christ. I know that you will bless the work of my hands and that you will use it to serve the body of Christ in ways I may never know about. Thank you for all you do for me and for giving me purpose even in the small things! In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Speaking Life | Matthew 16:19 | Christian Daily Devotional | Christian-Meditations.com

I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.

Matthew 16:19

Our words carry much weight in the physical realm, as well as the spiritual realm. Whatever we speak out affects those around us and also shifts the heavens. The word promises us that when we bind up things here on Earth, the heavens will back us up as well. We have to be careful what we speak into existence because our words are very powerful and just as a rudder steers an enormous ship our tongue and words steer the path of our life. I would like to encourage you to speak positivity and blessings and prosperity into your own life as well as the lives of those around you.

Prayer: God help me to use my words to speak life into situations around me. Help me to guard my words from causing negative ripples in this world and in the heavenly realms. Help me to always remember that the power of life and death are in the tongue. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Putting On The Full Armor of God | Daily Devotional

Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. | Ephesians 6:11

This is probably one of the most quoted scriptures in the Bible. One thing we have to remember is that WE HAVE ARMOR! Don’t forget to put on the armor of God every day. These pieces are described in Ephesians as follows: loins girt with truth (belt of truth), breastplate of righteousness, shoes with the preparation of the gospel of peace (peace), shield of faith, helmet of salvation, and the sword of the spirit/word of God. Let us take truth, righteousness, the gospel of peace, faith, salvation, and the word of God into all things that we do. These will be our strength and our protection.

Prayer: Thank you father that you put in place things for us to meditate on and take with us each day to offer us protection from the enemy. We know the battle we fight isn’t against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Help us always remember to fight in the spirit with the full protection you gave us. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Life Reflection | Proverbs 27:19 | Christian Daily Devotional
As water reflects the face, so one’s life reflects the heart. | Proverbs 27:19

What does your life reflect? Are you a person that people can turn to if they need help? Are you the one people hide from because you spread the gossip of so-and-so’s failed marriage around town? Your heart will overflow into your actions and your life. Matthew 12:34 says the mouth speaks what the heart is full of. If your heart is full of hate and malice, that’s what your words and your actions in life will take the shape of. On the flip side of the coin, if you speak life and perform acts of kindness, your life will be a reflection of God’s love and great mercy. If you find that your life isn’t quite reflecting the image that you want to portray, spend some time in a quiet place seeking God’s face. Ask him to touch and change your heart into a heart for helping others. He is faithful to answer, but sometimes we have to quiet our busy lives enough to be able to hear that still small voice. I encourage you to seek out ways to help others and be a blessing to them. God will surely reward you for it and your life will be a reflection of beauty and grace.

Prayer: God touch my heart today. Give me a heart for all things good and pleasant. Help me to bear the fruits of the spirit (love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control) in all that I do. I want to be a beautiful reflection of your love every day. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
