  ' God's leading is like an eagle who stirs up the nest. He is our Heavenly Father and we are His children. Eaglets are of the very being. And, the nature of eagles is supreme object of love. We can compare His love to us through the eagles.  We were made in the image and likeness of God. And through being born-again, we can experience the very nature and the supreme object of His love. Despite how it may seem, the Lord is not far from each one of us. Like an eagle's wing that is very wide, He protects us and carry us through our lives. Even when we feel abandoned, we are safe under His wings. Through the night deepens and tempests are wild, we can trust Him and will keep us. He has redeemed us. Because the Lord is watching over us, we don't have to fear the dangers around us. Be safe and secured in His presence.

  Dear Lord, fill my spirit, and the spirit of all the people today. Fill us with faith and hope, for a new day has dawned. Set our hearts today to worship You in spirit and in truth. I acknowledge and confess my guilt to You, Lord. Ease me of the burden of my sins. Give me grace that I may rise from the slumber of sin into the newness of life. Let me live according to Your Holy Word. Make me to know what is acceptable in Your sight. And, bless the people of this land, Lord. Amen

  It is a very uncertain world we are living in. We do not know what is right and what is wrong. We stand at the crossroads of life not knowing which way to take. This uncertainty is very unnerving for the modern man whose one concern is to make life more secure. In the midst of this uncertainty Jesus declares "I am the Way."

  Dear God, I come to You this morning, full of hope that the day to come might be filled with joy and energy. Grant that I may do my work with a light and happy heart. If I face frustration today, let me handle it with acceptance and faith that the outcome is in Your hands. Lead me away from anger or judgment of other people. Let me tend to my own garden instead of looking over the fence. If my neighbor's yard is filled with weeds, help me not to criticize, and keep me from envy of those whose tree bears more fruit. Let everything I attempt be filled with the knowledge and guidance of Your Holy Spirit. I pray that the Spirit will be with me at every moment. Let me always be aware of Him, and live every moment of this day in Your presence. Amen

  Don't you know that the Lord had already prepared a place for us in Heaven? "There are many rooms in my Father’s House. I wouldn’t tell You this, unless it was true. I am going there to prepare a place for each of you", says the Lord (John 14:2) This is the road to eternity: have faith in the Lord and believe in His Name. "Don’t be worried! Have faith in God and have faith in me", He said (John 14:1). Once we put our faith in Him, we are investing for eternity. He is our source of spiritual nourishment. He empowers us to live a life of integrity. He is preparing our eternal home. His grace has provided our everlasting life and place in Heaven. Christ meets our needs now and for eternity. Walk that road. Invest for eternity.

  Dear Heavenly Father, who has filled the world with beauty, open my eyes to behold Your gracious hand in all your works. Let me rejoice in Your whole creation. Let me learn to serve You with gladness, faithfully managing Your bounty; for the sake of him by whom all things were made. I thank You that You have answered me and have become my salvation. No matter how weak or lowly I may feel, I will always remember Your promising words. Let me be strong in faith and strong in Your Spirit. I ask to be called as a witness to Your love by the love I extend to others. Let me be a lamp set on a hill, reflecting the light of Christ in my forgiveness, mercy and compassion. And, a harvester of souls through my humble and dedicated servanthood. Amen.

  How do you walk your life and talk? Are you walking carefully so that you will not stumble and fall? We must look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the most of the time, because the days are evil. Like a climber, you must watch every step to make it safely to the top. This is also the same in our daily walk with the Lord. If we are not careful, we have a tendency to fall in the middle of our journey. The keys to a successful journey are concentration and caution. Without these things, it will be a wreck. With all of life's possible dangers coming our way, it is vital that we take each step with Jesus wisely and cautiously. Don't be like a fool who lives carelessly. Instead, be a wise person who watches each step so he does not stumble or fall. Walk carefully in love. Walk in a way that honors God. As we trust God to rule our hearts, our feet can walk His way.

  Dear Lord, thank You for another day that You have given to us. Thank You for the gift of life. Glory and praise to You for filling me with life to live another day. I will spend this day in Your presence filled with Your joy and energy. Help me to accomplish Your will, Lord. Let me do what I can to deserve the joys of the day. Make me an instrument of Your grace. Bless me and those who pray with me now, that although we cannot see or hear one another, we may be bonded in your Holy Spirit. Let us be as bricks in a great lighthouse to guide the entire world to You, to Your love and Your forgiveness. Amen.

  What are your goals in life? Do you include God as you plan your goals? We must realize that God has a goal in each of our lives. It is the reason why we should include Him in our life goal setting. It is important to realize that God is at progress in our lives. He has called us to do something. We are a part of His plan. He also does have a plan for your life. His plan will lead you to joy, fulfillment, contentment and eternal blessing that you can experience all the days of your lives. So, press on toward the goal that Christ has called you. Someday, you will met Him face to face and will tell, "well done, my faithful one". If you just include Him throughout the planning, you will experience a life without any sense of regret or shame, because you are secured in Him. When setting a goal, we should also move on from the past or forget what lies behind. Yes, we cannot do it, but by God's grace, we can press forward and serve God faithfully today and in the future.

No matter how weak or lowly I may feel, I will always remember Your sweet promising words. Let me be strong in faith and strong in Your Spirit. Let me be a witness to Your love and share it to others. Let me be a light that shines in this world. And, let me be a harvester of souls through my humble and dedicated servanthood. Amen.

  Like a snowfall, it will also relate to a spiritual truth. Just as that snow covered everything in sight, His grace covers our sins. But grace doesn't just cover it, it erases sin.  God always makes the first move in this thing called salvation. Although we sinned as hard as those Israelites, He is still willing to cleanse us as white as snow. Though are sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow (Isa. 1:18). When He made this promise, His children had a painful problem with sin. He compared them to a physical body plagued with unhealed wounds and sores. No matter how bad they sinned, God was willing to extend His grace to them. Today, we have the same assurance. Sin may stain our lives, but when we repent and confess it, we have the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of God's grace (Eph. 1:7). The weight of sin is balanced only by the blood of Christ, with His unending love and amazing grace.

  Dear Lord, let me this day know You as You are. I want to love You supremely and admire You fully. Let me also serve You completely, Lord. Give me courage to confess, to bare my sinful heart to Thee. Thank You for Your forgiving love You long to show. Thank You for the freedom from my sins. I thank you that You have not destroyed me in my transgressions. But in Your love toward mankind, You have raised me up. As I lay in despair, let me glorify Your Majestic Name, forevermore. Amen

  How can we have a positive outlook in life? As the child of God, we must understand that God is in control of everything. In every circumstances in life, trust in Him that He will take control of every situation that You will encounter. This will give us confidence to pursue opportunities that others might not have believed possible. God made all of us the way we are for a reason. Whatever you're going through, it is a part of what you are going to do with your life. God causes everything to work for our own good. Whether it is a good thing or a bad thing, it is for a purpose (Rom. 8:28). No matter what our strengths or weaknesses might be, God's providential hand can give us what we need to make a difference for Him in our world. Rely on His strength to help you as you take a step of faith. Be strengthened by His power, take courage. God's call to a task includes His strength to complete it.

  Dear Lord, I commit myself to Your care today, and throughout the week. Mold me in Your image. In everything that I say and do, let my mind be on the eternal goodness of Heaven rather than the vanities of earth. I dedicate myself to Your holiness. I pray that You will be with me all the days of my life. I am heartily sorry that I have ever offended You, and I sincerely repent; with tears I humbly pray to you, O Lord. Help me look to You for guidance and wisdom. Let me know the joyful feeling of having done something that pleased You. Let me never feel the pain of knowing I have disappointed You. Amen

  What does contentment means? How do be contented? Contentment is derived from a Greek word that means to be self-sufficient or independent. It is an inner sense of rest or peace that comes from being right with God and knowing that He is in control of all that happens to us. It is having our focus on the kingdom of God and serving Him, not on the love of money and other things. The secret for contentment in every situation is to focus on the Lord on His Sovereignty, as Savior, and as the Sufficient One. Contentment comes from focusing on the Lord as the Sovereign One to whom we must submit. It also comes from focusing on the Lord as the Savior whom we must serve. And, it comes from focusing on the Lord as the Sufficient One to whom we must trust with all of our hearts. Learn to be contented with everything and in every circumstance. The secret of being contented is to be captivated by Christ. It is because He is everything. We can be complete in Christ. Once you trust in His Name, co

  Dear Lord, I come before You in a humble sense of my own unworthiness, confessing my many transgressions. I beseech you, in mercy, and forgive me for all my transgressions. Work in me a hearty repentance; that I may obtain forgiveness at Your hands. Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight. Let Your Holy Spirit guide me in my prayer and in thought, and grant me the grace to listen and hear Your Word. Soften my heart, that I may be directed by your truth, and not the devices of my body and mind. Direct our way unto You, Lord. Make us to increase and abound in love one toward another. May we establish our hearts unblameable in holiness before You. Amen

  What does it really mean to be a fisher of men? Jesus promised us that He will teach us how to bring people instead of fish. At the beginning of Jesus' earthly ministry, He gathered a group around Him that would join Him in the kingdom task of rescuing the treasure of lost souls from our enemy, Satan. When He called them, He said "follow me" (Matt. 4:19).  For them, following Jesus would mean a radical transition from catching fish to the enterprise of being fishers of men and women who were lost in the grip of sin. But the task would not always be easy. Jesus referred to the quest as taking up our cross to follow Him. It means that we should forget about ourselves and follow the will of Christ for us. Be a fisher of men. Go and make disciples of all nations. Reach out to the lost. Proclaim the salvation and love of Christ to the world.

  Dear Lord, I give my love to You without reservation. I will love You unconditionally all the days of my love because You loved me, too. Thank You for Your agape and unending love, Lord. In the face of intimidation and fear when seeking to engage others with the gospel, remind me that they are Your lost treasures. I count it a privilege to follow You into other’s lives. I want to tell the Good News to others so that they will love You, too. With all my heart, I desire to submit to Your will. Let my condition be always blessed. Make Your home with me, that I might be truly blessed. Amen.

  How do you respond to failures? What do you do after you fail? Sometimes, like an inventor, we followers of Jesus Christ may also find ourselves frozen in fear after a failure in our personal lives. We are unsure on how to pick up the pieces and move on. We might even spend our remaining time, waiting for a big idea or action that can help us recover from a previous failure. Do not forget that Jesus has already done that on our behalf. He covered our shame. And, He set us free to fellowship with God and serve Him daily. It is because He gave His life, and rose again. When we fall, we can arise with Him, for He delights in mercy. The moment we find Jesus, our eternity with Him begins. He walks alongside us so He can change us into the people we long to be. We are created to be like Him. Look up from your failure, and you'll find God standing ready to receive you. Remember, there is blessing in every failure you encounter. Trust in Him always.

  Dear God, cause me to live everyday as if it were to be my last, for I cannot know that it is not. Help me to live this day as I shall wish I had done when I come to die. Grant me Your divine grace, everyday. My actions aren’t adequate to fix my failures. Thank You for doing that through Your Son Jesus who gave Himself for us. Help me to look up and walk with You. Seek me out and bring me home to Your fold again. Deal favorably with me according to Your good pleasure, until I may dwell in your house all the days of my life. And praise You forever and ever with them that are there. Amen
