daily Bible verse

[weased]

But all is well for the godly man. Tell him, "What reward a you are going to get!"  Isaiah 5:10 (The Living Bible)

  I start my day every day with the Lord`s Prayer

[jcribb16]

Hebrews 3:13 (KJV)
13 "But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin."

Hebrews 3:13 (ESV)
13 "But exhort one another every day, as long as it is called “today,” that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin."

The ongoing walk of faith is not easy.  Stay strong and keep on "keeping on." Reaching out to others, with even a small smile, opening the door for someone, offering our seat to another person who is in obvious need of sitting, carrying something for someone, and sharing food and/or groceries for ones in need, are just a few of the many things that not only help the others feel a little better, but also help up feel joyful and content in our hearts.

Acts 12:1-11

It was about this time that King Herod arrested some who belonged to the church, intending to persecute them.  He had James, the brother of John, put to death with the sword. When he saw that this met with approval among the Jews, he proceeded to seize Peter also. This happened during the Festival of Unleavened Bread.  After arresting him, he put him in prison, handing him over to be guarded by four squads of four soldiers each. Herod intended to bring him out for public trial after the Passover.

 So Peter was kept in prison, but the church was earnestly praying to God for him.

The night before Herod was to bring him to trial, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains, and sentries stood guard at the entrance. Suddenly an angel of the Lord appeared and a light shone in the cell. He struck Peter on the side and woke him up. “Quick, get up!” he said, and the chains fell off Peter’s wrists.

Then the angel said to him, “Put on your clothes and sandals.” And Peter did so. “Wrap your cloak around you and follow me,” the angel told him. Peter followed him out of the prison, but he had no idea that what the angel was doing was really happening; he thought he was seeing a vision.  They passed the first and second guards and came to the iron gate leading to the city. It opened for them by itself, and they went through it. When they had walked the length of one street, suddenly the angel left him.

 Then Peter came to himself and said, “Now I know without a doubt that the Lord has sent his angel and rescued me from Herod’s clutches and from everything the Jewish people were hoping would happen.”

 


I also ask that all those so inclined,please pray for me.I've been going through some difficult times lately.Thanks in advance,and may God also bless you in his mercy and kindness.

Will keep you in prayer, Johnnie! I hope the Lord is bringing you through your struggles, but if not (yet), He has a reason to make you wait, but is faithful!!

It makes me feel good to smile at someone, especially who appears to be grumpy, hoping it will brighten their day at least a little bit.

Thank you for these. It's good to start my day with a bit of moving verse.

I agree, it does help our own feelings, too.  It's kind of neat sometimes, to see someone take a double-take when smiled at, especially if they smile back!

James 5:10-11

 Brothers and sisters, as an example of patience in the face of suffering, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord. As you know, we count as blessed those who have persevered. You have heard of Job’s perseverance and have seen what the Lord finally brought about. The Lord is full of compassion and mercy.

~ Revelation 3:21-22 ~
(King James Version)

"To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches."

Phillippians 4:4-7

 Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

~ Isaiah 40:30-31 ~
(King James Version)

"Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint."

Sometimes waiting is hard.  Especially when just plain weary and tired.
