ANSWERED PRAYER

When we receive answers to our prayers, we should be joyful.  The joy of the Lord should be overflowing inside of us.  We should let it flow out so that others will be encouraged to pray.  The man that was healed at the gate of the Temple in Acts 3, ran and jumped, and leaped through the temple grounds.  His joy was overflowing and he didn’t try to stop the display.  Sometimes we are so “proper” that we refuse to let the joy of the Lord flow out of us.  When God answers our prayers, we should let the joy of the Lord inside us, flow outside of us so others can be encouraged.

THANKFUL

 Are we thankful for the goodness of God in our lives?  Sometimes we are not as thankful as we should be.  If we have a roof over our heads, shoes on our feet, clothes on our back, food in our stomach, and we are blessed with a job, BE THANKFUL.  Why do we complain about our houses, our clothes, our food, and our lives?  We must be thankful to God for His great blessings on us.  If we have lack in any of these areas, we need to remember that in the book of Philippians we find that God says He will supply all our needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. We must thank Him that His Word is true and receive with thanksgiving our needs met even before they appear!

A GOOD NAME

 Proverbs 22:1, says that a good name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favor than silver and gold.  KJV  How do you have a good name?  Our reputation (name) depends on our actions, our words, and our ways.  If Jesus is your Savior and Lord, your life should reflect His life. To be like Jesus should be our number one goal, not how to get rich.  Being rich is not bad, but it must be our god.  Loving favor is the favor of God in all that you do.  Walking in the favor of God is greater than anything in this world.  His favor is abundant and always present. Those who choose God to be their Father are daily blessed with His abundant favor.
