The Daily Nugget

Today on the Daily Nugget, Mike talks about a son from his past the really impacted him. The Kry’s song Heavenbound Train. This song will help you pay attention to what matters, people.

Its such a funny feeling
As I walk into the streets
Empty eyes on people's faces
Makes me sad
When they look at me

I know they're only strangers
I might never see 'em again
But it's more than my desire
To tell them
They're riding away
On a hellbound train

Heading for the wrong destination
All like sheep have gone astray
People passing through the station
With their luggage
Full of shame

Different names and different places
But the song remains the same
The heart of man through the ages
Neeeds to be
Forgiven and free

And I'm filled with a deep compassion
That my Father's given me
I will always preach the gospel
To the ends of the earth
'Till everyone has heard Jesus is the way
To a heavenbound train

Today Mike reflects on Have Thine Own Way Lord as a prayer.

1 Have thine own way, Lord!
Have thine own way!
Thou art the potter,
I am the clay.
Mold me and make me
after thy will,
while I am waiting,
yielded and still.

2 Have thine own way, Lord!
Have thine own way!
Search me and try me,
Savior today!
Wash me just now, Lord,
wash me just now,
as in thy presence
humbly I bow.

3 Have thine own way, Lord!
Have thine own way!
Wounded and weary,
help me I pray!
Power, all power,
surely is thine!
Touch me and heal me,
Savior divine!

4 Have thine own way, Lord!
Have thine own way!
Hold o'er my being
absolute sway.
Fill with thy Spirit
till all shall see
Christ only, always,
living in me!

Today’s Daily Prayer is all about what Christ has done for us! His righteousness alone!

Today, Mike leads a prayer that calls on the power of God to be unleashed in our lives.

Daily Prayer today finishes up John Pipers 15 Prayers for Power.

1. Lord, make me so mighty against the powers of self-justification that I never lose the humility to repent and weep for my sin (James 4:9; 5:16).

2. Lord, make me so mighty in resisting the bait of frenzied productivity that I never cease to enjoy the still waters of prayer and your sweet presence (Psalm 23:2; Isaiah 46:10; Luke 10:42).

3. Lord, make me so mighty against the deadly undertow of self-reliance that I am never ashamed to trust your arm, like a child with his father, in every breaking wave (Psalm 37:3, 5; Proverbs 3:5; Galatians 2:20).

4. Lord, make me so mighty in seeing and mighty in savoring the promises of your sovereign grace that in all my sorrows I might never cease to sing your praise (Matthew 5:11–12; Acts 16:25; 2 Corinthians 6:10; 1 Peter 4:13).
