Verse of the Day for Tuesday, February 5, 2019
Haughty eyes and a proud heart, the lamp of the wicked, are sin!—Proverbs 21:4
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
"We're number one!" is the cry today. However, the scripture above tells us that it is the wicked who light their own way with their haughty eyes and proud heart. In contrast, God lights the way for his people with his word (Scripture) and with his Word (Jesus), the wicked light their own way with their haughty eyes and proud heart. But arrogance, p***e, "uppity-ness" — or wh**ever name you want to call it — is called sin by God. God is number one and all the other numbers are important only because of him. It's just that simple.
My Prayer...
Holy and righteous Father, help me place you and your character in the place of most importance in my heart, my life decisions, and in my influence. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

Verse of the Day for Wednesday, February 6, 2019
Seek good, not evil, that you may live. Then the LORD God Almighty will be with you, just as you say he is.—Amos 5:14
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Isn't it amazing how many people claim God is on their side. God has been "claimed" by those seeking to enforce s***ery, practice prejudice, lie, bribe officials, practice hypocrisy, force injustice on the powerless, and practice "ethnic cleansing." But God makes the test pretty simple: do what is good, seek after the good, or you're not related to me! In the words of the prophet Amos, that meant equity for all peoples in court, in the marketplace, and in the place of worship. If we're claiming God is on our side, then we'd better draw close to the side of God, the side of good, justice, and mercy as God defines them!
My Prayer...
Precious and Almighty God, full of mercy and lover of justice and fairness, I praise you for your concern for those who are often forgotten. By the presence of your Holy Spirit within me, convict me when I side with evil and oppression and stir me to work for the salvation of others, of my culture, and of my world — not just eternal salvation, but salvation from evil and hatred that are so prevalent. May your Kingdom dawn more brightly in our world as it does in your heart and will for us. In Jesus' name. Amen.

Ephesians 6:10-18
I used to have those verses memorized;
10) Be strong in the Lord and the power of his might.
11) Put on the whole armour of God
12) For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers of darkness of the world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
16) Above all, taking the shield of faith, whwerewith ye shall be able to quench the fiery darts of the wicked.
17) and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the spirit, which is the word of God.
18) Praying always with all prayer and suplication in the spirit...
