Read 2 Timothy 1:7

**TAKE TIME TO PRAY BEFORE YOU BEGIN…**

God did not leave us here on earth alone to fend for ourselves. No! If you have accepted Jesus as your Savior, the Spirit of the Living God lives in you!

**TAKE TIME TO PRAY BEFORE YOU BEGIN…**

We can see God’s power all around us. In His creation, and we read through the Bible, when we see Jesus, as we look at our own lives. Think about the power grid that supplies us the energy we need to light up our homes. It is the same with God. He is our eternal power! Ask that God would reveal His power to you. That you would be able to see and understand more about how “he upholds the universe by the power of his word.”

WRITE

Take time now to write about where you see His power today.
Look back over your life – where has His power been most evident in your life.
You can be certain that whether you are aware of it or not – His power is holding the universe now and always. Take time to praise Him now for His unfailing power.

GROW

He is what gives us life, strengthens us, energizes us – He is our power. Praying that His power would be manifest in you today.

Psalm 63-35

**TAKE TIME TO PRAY BEFORE YOU BEGIN…**

It is really impossible to comprehend God’s power! But we are told that we can see it simply by looking at His creation (Romans 1:20). He maintains all power – as He is sovereign over every grain of sand, every drop of rain, every hair on your head and every event in your life. Power is both a thing and an action. We can can have power or power can propel us forward. After looking up the word in the dictionary power reveals itself in three different forms – Control Strength Energy. Isn’t that at little glimpse of God – Control…Strength…Energy?

WRITE

Here are just a few verses that speak of God’s power.
Really I think I could suggest to see God’s power read Genesis 1 – Revelation 22.

Genesis 1 Romans 1:20 1 Corinthians 2:4-5
2 Corinthians 4:7 Colossians 2:12 Micah 3:8 Hebrews 1:1-3 Luke 9:37-42

His power is all encompassing. Pick a favorite verse about God’s power and write about how and why it impacted you.
Take comfort in knowing that He who is in us is greater than he who is in the world. Where in your life do you need to claim His power.
When you come to know Jesus the Spirit of the living God dwells in you. It is this power that equips and enables us to overcome (Colossians 2:12). Write down – the Power of God dwells in me and I claim His power over______.

GROW

We are merely human – imperfect and powerless. Yet… His Spirit in us – now that it power. This is a beautiful song about exactly that. Jeremy Camp – Same Power.

My His power enable, equip and guide you as you trust in Him! Praying for you…

You Were – But God

So often here on earth “free gifts” are not so free. I think of all the offers that require us to buy something to get our free gift. It really isn’t free! But here Paul explains that our salvation is free! It is a gift! It is God’s unmerited favor! Stop feeling like you have to earn it. Accept the gift – then live in faith like the new creation that you are!

WRITE

READ EPHESIAN 2:1-10

FILL IN THE BLANK
- You were_______________! (Make a list)
- But God _______________!
You have been saved By God’s grace what is the result?
You are His workmanship created in Christ Jesus for what purpose?
Write a prayer asking God to guide you as He uses you for His purposes & His glory!

This is a wonderful reminder! GRACE WINS! – Matthew West

God is Grace – Full

**TAKE TIME TO PRAY BEFORE YOU BEGIN…**

Think about God’s grace and how deep and wide it is! God is grace-full! His grace is completely abundant and completely undeserved. It is a gift which we can never repay… but one that we can seek to honor as we are changed by Him from the inside out.

WRITE

There are so many many verses that speak of God’s grace.
Here are a few you can use to help see the picture of God’s grace
& I challenge you to seek some more.

Genesis 6-9 Ephesians 2:8 John 1:14-18 Romans 3:23-24
Romans 6:14 1 Peter 5:10 Revelation 2:21

Write about what God’s grace means to you. He has given you the gift of salvation and from his fullness he has given you “grace upon grace” (John 1:16).
Do these passages open up your understanding of God’s grace? Write down some of the words that really spoke to you.
His grace fills the entire Bible from the beginning to the end. It really is too much to comprehend. But it is truth! It is His free gift to you! Awesome! Take time to praise Him Now!

GROW

I love this song from Mercy Me. It really reminds me how much He loves me – and that His grace is always enough!

Pray now that His grace would abound in your life. That you would come to a full understanding of the completeness of His grace. And that you would live your as the new creation that you are – transformed for eternity! Alleluia! Praying for you

“I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way. This is good, and it is pleasing in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.”

“So then, there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God,
for whoever has entered God’s rest has also rested from his works as God did from his.
Let us therefore strive to enter that rest, so that no one may fall by the same sort of disobedience.”

Ask the Spirit to guide you as you read God’s word for today. Remember to read the entire passage

“ And he said to man,
‘Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom,
and to turn away from evil is understanding.’”
Job 28:28

God is all powerful! Respect His power – that is wisdom. Turn from the ways of this world – that is wisdom! May you understand what it means to fear Him and may his wisdom be yours! I will be praying for you!
