SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY 1 Corinthians 14:29-33

²⁹ Only two or three prophets should speak, and the others should judge what they say.³⁰ If a message from God comes to another person who is sitting, the first speaker should stop.³¹ You can all prophesy one after the other. In this way all the people can be taught and encouraged.³² The spirits of prophets are under the control of the prophets themselves.³³ God is not a God of confusion but a God of peace.

PRAYER FOR TODAY

Father, Your creation has unlimited visual stimuli that is seen by our eyes today, but according to Scripture even our heart and our mind can see. Many philosophies and principles come to us through our mind, but we want the eyes of our heart to embrace only that which will keep our hearts pure. May the eyes of our heart reject teachings that are inconsistent with our spiritual enlightenment. Help us to sharpen and narrow our heart’s vision to escape the broad way that leads to destruction. Keep our eyes open to the good things You want to reveal and shut our eyes to the “god of this age” whose goal it is to lead us to spiritual poverty and death. In Your name, Jesus, we pray. Amen.

GREATLY BLESSED, HIGHLY FAVORED, IMPERFECT BUT FORGIVEN CHILD OF GOD!!!
