"Not Because of You, But Because It Is A Set Time of the Favor of God"

I opened my bible this morning and the first passage my eyes fell upon was “Matthew 15: 18 “But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man”. Right away I remembered a lesson of old “Watch what hits your lips, what moves inside of you remains in you until you release it into the air then it travels everywhere, let your words be clearly purposed” I recall a story given me…”There was a man with 1 good arm and one crippled arm & tired of his circumstance he cried out to God “Please, Please, make this arm like the other arm” and immediately his good arm was crippled. The Word of God is complete and purposed. May all that you speak be reflective of His word and humbled to his presence in you that his favor flow like a river in your life.

Scripture of the Day: Exodus 20:20-23

²⁰ "See, I am sending an angel ahead of you to guard you along the way and to bring you to the place I have prepared. ²¹ Pay attention to him and listen to what he says. Do not rebel against him; he will not forgive your rebellion, since my Name is in him. ²² If you listen carefully to what he says and do all that I say, I will be an enemy to your enemies and will oppose those who oppose you. ²³ My angel will go ahead of you and bring you into the land of the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Canaanites, Hivites and Jebusites, and I will wipe them out.

Prayer for the Day:
Father send before me your angels, your intercessors that the voices I hear are only of you. Bridle my tongue so that all I speak be that of your words and your will. My heart leaps with praise as I see the path you have paved for me and I give you glory and honor for the careful attention you have paid and will always pay me. I am certain of your favor and jubilant over your promises. I move forward fearless and in excited anticipation of the days to come, in Jesus' Name, Amen
