TODAY’S SCRIPTURE

the Lord came to Elijah: ‘Leave here, turn eastward and hide in the Kerith

TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria
|
In scripture, God had a place
of provision for Elijah. He gave specific instructions, and as long as Elijah
obeyed, he would walk right in to His place of blessing.
Just as God directed Elijah
to his place of blessing, God is directing you, too. He’s aligning the right
opportunities for you and causing the right people to come along your path to
help you get ahead. He’s constantly working behind the scenes on your behalf.
But you have to do your part to keep your heart in the right place by
following His Word. That means living in peace and unity. The Bible says that
when we live in unity with other believers, there He has commanded the
blessing. And when your heart is in the place of blessing, the rest of your
life will be in the place of blessing, too!

Father, I come to
You with a grateful heart. Thank You for leading me and directing my steps.
Help me to see others the way You see them so I can honor You and live in
unity all the days of my life in Jesus’ name. Amen.
