BUT THE OASIS KEEPS BLOOMING
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
He turns a desert into pools of water, a parched land into springs of water. And there He lets the hungry dwell, and they establish a city to live in; they sow fields and plant vineyards and get a fruitful yield.
Psalm 107:35–37
TODAY’S REFLECTION
An oasis is an open place of water in the desert, around which a completely different landscape is formed. When everything around is nothing but sand, life flourishes in the oasis. And no matter how fiercely the hot winds blow in the desert, the oasis continues to stay green, because it is supplied with water that comes from deep springs.
Even if your circumstances resemble a desert, realise that God Himself is with you in those circumstances. He already has a plan to cause springs to burst forth in the hot sand, so that a lake is formed. Draw close to Him, and you will gain access to the supernatural provision of the Kingdom of Heaven, which comes from the deepest sources, from God Himself.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Almighty God, truly all things are possible for You. Thank You for turning my desert into a fruitful oasis. Thank You that You are working in me and through me. I choose to follow Your guidance. In the name of Jesus, Amen!

WHOSE ADVICE ARE YOU LISTENING TO?
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
And when He got into the boat, His disciples followed Him. And behold, there arose a great storm on the sea, so that the boat was being swamped by the waves; but He was asleep. And they went and woke Him, saying, “Save us, Lord; we are perishing.” And He said to them, “Why are you afraid, O you of little faith?” Then He rose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm.
Matthew 8:23–26
TODAY’S REFLECTION
This story reveals two completely opposite reactions to the very same situation. In the middle of a raging storm, the disciples were overcome by fear, while Jesus slept peacefully. The disciples focused on the visible storm and the waves crashing into the boat. Jesus, however, knew God’s promise that no weapon formed against Him would prevail, and that God had given believers authority even over the forces of nature.
Realise that “sailing together with Jesus” in your life will not shield you from storms. His presence does not guarantee that you will never face situations where worry and fear try to take hold of you. Yet be assured that in every situation and in every storm, the Lord of lords and the King of kings Himself is with you.
Therefore, when you find yourself in the storms of life, be attentive to whose advice you listen to. Make a firm decision to stand strong in faith. Reflect on the promises of God’s Word and believe in the supernatural power and authority of God within you. When you believe with your heart that Jesus lives in you, you become able to do what He did.
TODAY’S PRAYER
(If possible, pray aloud)
Father, forgive me for the times when I have allowed fear to take hold of my heart and have become weak in faith. I renounce the spirit of fear and thank You that You have given me a spirit of power, love, and self control. Thank You that You are always with me and within me. Thank You for teaching me to walk in Your peace, power, and authority. In the name of Jesus, Amen!

WHEN GOD OPENS THE DOOR FOR YOU
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven.
Ecclesiastes 3:1
TODAY’S REFLECTION
Nowadays, many things happen instantly and without delay. We press a button and the light turns on. We get into a car and within an hour we are already in another city. Without even noticing, we become accustomed to the idea that everything must happen now and immediately.
You have surely seen how a cat sits patiently by a door, waiting for its owner to open it. Observing such a moment, I have admired the cat’s patience, calmness, and trust.
Today I want to remind you that God knows your situation and your problems very well. And He truly desires to help you. However, for this to happen, you need to open your heart to Him. You need to build fellowship with Him. You need to allow Him to change you and to accept His plan for your life. I assure you that by doing so, the day will quietly come when you realise that you are able to wait for the right time with peace, patience, and trust. The time when God opens the door for you.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Heavenly Father, forgive me for being impatient and for not allowing Your peace to guide me. Forgive me for not fully trusting You. I choose to build fellowship with You and I thank You for teaching me to wait on You. In the name of Jesus, Amen.

I AM ALL YOU NEED
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM.” And He said, “Say this to the people of Israel: ‘I AM has sent me to you.’”
Exodus 3:14
TODAY’S REFLECTION
The Old Testament shows that for the Hebrews the name of God was considered so holy that it was not even spoken aloud. Therefore, when God revealed Himself to Moses in the burning bush and sent him to lead the people out of captivity, Moses asked God, “What shall I say if they ask who has sent me?” He could not publicly pronounce the name of God. God answered him, saying, “Moses, My name is I AM.”
With this, He declared, I am everything you need. If you have fallen into the captivity of problems, I am your Deliverer. If sickness comes against you, I am your Healer. If you are burdened by financial difficulties, I am your Provider. If you are anxious, I am your Comforter. If you are lonely, I am your Friend.
What is it that you need today? The great I AM, Almighty God, has not changed. He is ready to meet all your needs according to the riches of His glory. Open your heart to Him and receive the blessing He has prepared especially for you.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Heavenly Father, today I call upon You, the Almighty I AM. I place my life into Your hands, with all its joys and sorrows. Direct my steps. Teach me to live in close fellowship with You. Truly, You are all that I need. In the name of Jesus, Amen.

YOU HEAR THE VOICE OF GOD
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
When he has brought out all his own, he goes before them, and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice. A stranger they will not follow, but they will flee from him, for they do not know the voice of strangers.
John 10:4–5
TODAY’S REFLECTION
What do we do when the radio does not play? Do we immediately claim that radio stations have stopped broadcasting? No, we first check whether our radio is switched on. And if our preferred station does not come through straight away, do we call the radio station to complain that it is not broadcasting? No, we adjust the radio to the correct frequency. And suddenly everything is fine. Our favourite radio station reaches our ears, our minds, and our hearts, and we find ourselves humming along to one of the melodies. It is very similar with the voice of God. Only He does not broadcast from a distance like a radio, because He dwells in your heart.
Today I invite you to make a decision by saying, “I hear the voice of God and I am able to follow it, because God has designed it this way. God is my loving Father and will not give me a stone when I ask for bread.”
Have you ever seen how a father rejoices over his child who is learning to take the first steps? In the same way, God rejoices when you choose to follow His voice. He loves you and will do everything to help you learn this most important skill of every child of God. Do not be afraid of making mistakes, and recognise that He values your steps of faith. Let go of doubt, because Jesus Himself has promised that you are able to distinguish His voice from the voice of a stranger. Believe, and you are already succeeding.
TODAY’S PRAYER
(If possible, pray aloud)
Father, I thank You that You are my Good Shepherd, who cares for me as His own sheep, and nothing can separate us. Thank You that You speak to me in a way I can understand and that You do not ask of me anything that would contradict the teaching of the Bible, my measure of faith, or my abilities. Truly, today I will fulfil Your plan, because I hear and follow Your voice. In the name of Jesus, Amen.

BE LIKE AN ARROW
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one’s youth.
Psalm 127:4
TODAY’S REFLECTION
Have you ever shot a bow, or watched someone do it? When the time comes, the archer takes the arrow in his hand, sets it on the bow, draws it back, takes aim, and at the right moment releases the string, allowing the arrow to fly straight towards the target with great speed and power.
But what might this process look like from the arrow’s point of view? Perhaps it has felt unnoticed among the other arrows for quite some time. Then comes the moment of favour when it is taken into the archer’s hand. The target is already in sight, but then something completely opposite to what was expected happens. Instead of moving forward, the arrow is forced to move backwards. The tension increases, and the target seems farther away. Yet now it is too late. There is nothing left but to rely fully on the archer. And perhaps the seconds before release feel like an eternity to the arrow.
My friend, from the moment you entrusted your life to Jesus Christ, you became a child of God. That means a son or a daughter. An arrow in the hand of a mighty warrior. Your loving Heavenly Father is the finest archer in the world, so you can be certain that no matter how things may look from your perspective, He has a purpose for your life and He knows exactly how to lead you to it. Trust Him.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Heavenly Father, in this world You have created nothing without a purpose. Therefore, You also have the right time and a unique calling for me. Truly, only this will bring me real satisfaction and fulfilment in life. I believe that whatever You begin, You bring to completion, and You do it well. I choose to trust in You. In the name of Jesus, Amen.

UNDESERVED FAVOUR
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
The steadfast love of the LORD never ceases; His mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness.
Lamentations 3:22–23
TODAY’S REFLECTION
The Bible teaches us that God’s grace is new every day. Through it, all our needs are generously met, and we are able to live a truly joyful life. Some may think that this grace must be earned through good works, but this is not the case. God’s grace, in other words God’s undeserved favour, is a free gift. God gives it to us because He loves us deeply.
In the Second Letter of Peter we read that we receive God’s grace “through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord”. This means that you activate God’s undeserved favour in your life not through works or rituals, but by faith, by acknowledging Jesus Christ as your Lord. From that moment on, immeasurable grace, provision, and above all, God’s presence are available to you. And the only thing that can limit or release it is your own faith.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Father, thank You that I do not have to earn Your favour. I believe that because of what Jesus Christ has done, I can live in close fellowship with You. I choose to build my life on Your Word, and I thank You, Lord, that You bless me and clothe me with Your grace as with armour. In the name of Jesus, Amen.

VICTORY EVEN WHEN OUTNUMBERED
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
Zerah the Ethiopian came out against them with an army of a million men and three hundred chariots, and came as far as Mareshah. And Asa went out to meet him, and they drew up their lines of battle in the Valley of Zephathah at Mareshah. And Asa cried to the LORD his God, “O LORD, there is none like You to help, between the mighty and the weak. Help us, O LORD our God, for we rely on You, and in Your name we have come against this multitude. O LORD, You are our God; let not man prevail against You.” So the LORD defeated the Ethiopians before Asa and before Judah, and the Ethiopians fled.
2 Chronicles 14:9–12
TODAY’S REFLECTION
One day, the people of God, who at that time were ruled by the godly King Asa, were about to be attacked by a vast enemy army. The situation appeared completely hopeless, yet King Asa did not lose heart. He knew his God and understood that the LORD stands on behalf of those who call upon His name.
I invite you today to reflect on the words of today’s Scripture. Make a firm decision to be like the godly king who, despite the obvious disadvantage, went into battle fully trusting in God. Believe with all your heart and with all your mind, and God will grant you not only victory, but you will also receive unexpectedly great provision.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Father, truly You are the righteous Judge. You know my heart and that I trust in You alone. Thank You that in Your name I am able to stand against every challenge of life and to see Your strong hand helping me. In the name of Jesus, Amen.

WHAT MAKES YOU UNSTOPPABLE?
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear its sound, but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes. So it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit.
John 3:8
TODAY’S REFLECTION
The wind is always somewhere close to us. It can frighten us with a violent storm, or delight us with a gentle breeze. It can stir the sea into raging waves, or help a sailor to cross it.
Today’s Scripture reveals that just as we are unable to control the natural wind, we are also unable to control the supernatural God. Yet we are able to cooperate both with the wind and with God.
I want you to realise that when you entrusted your heart to Jesus Christ, you were born of the Spirit, you were born into God’s family. From that moment on, you received a special ability to cooperate with God. In the eyes of many, this makes you unpredictable and unstoppable. You become able to rule in the areas for which God created you. You regain the authority to rule the world that Adam and Eve lost. You become one who sets the tone. You become unstoppable like the wind.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Father, I thank You that You have given me not only eternal life, not only the ability to live in fellowship with You, but also the authority to reign together with You in this world. I choose to submit to Your guidance, because I know that only in this way will I be unstoppable and truly happy. In the name of Jesus, Amen.

I want you to realise that when you entrusted your heart to Jesus Christ, you were born of the Spirit, you were born into God’s family. From that moment on, you received a special ability to cooperate with God. In the eyes of many, this makes you unpredictable and unstoppable. You become able to rule in the areas for which God created you. You regain the authority to rule the world that Adam and Eve lost. You become one who sets the tone. You become unstoppable like the wind.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Father, I thank You that You have given me not only eternal life, not only the ability to live in fellowship with You, but also the authority to reign together with You in this world. I choose to submit to Your guidance, because I know that only in this way will I be unstoppable and truly happy. In the name of Jesus, Amen.

THERE IS SOMETHING SPECIAL IN YOU
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
But Moses said to God, “Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh and bring the children of Israel out of Egypt?”
Exodus 3:11
TODAY’S REFLECTION
Have you ever caught yourself comparing yourself to others in your thoughts? They are special, but I am not. They are like this or like that, but I am not. My friend, God wants you to compare yourself with only two people. The first person is you YESTERDAY, and the second person is you TOMORROW. Look at how God has already changed you and consider who He desires you to become in the future.
Today’s Scripture reveals that Moses felt unqualified for the task God had chosen for him. Yet God saw something special in Moses. Yes, Moses had his weaknesses, and his excuses sounded reasonable, but God saw in him something that qualified Moses to change the future of an entire nation.
God has placed something special in you as well. Something that no one else in this world is able to accomplish. He has placed within you potential and talents that you may not even be aware of yet. Trust God’s plan. He loves you deeply and desires only the very best for you.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Father, forgive me for not seeking to understand Your will for my life. From today, I commit myself to obey Your guidance and to align myself with Your plan. Thank You that You are with me and that You help me at every step of this journey. In the name of Jesus, Amen.

YOU’LL BE SURPRISED, BUT READY!
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
And Pharaoh said to his servants, “Can we find a man like this, in whom is the Spirit of God?” … Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, “See, I have set you over all the land of Egypt.”
Genesis 41:38, 41
TODAY’S REFLECTION
God gave Joseph a dream. It might seem that from that moment everything would go smoothly, but it did not. When his brothers heard the dream, they hated Joseph, threw him into a pit, and then sold him into slavery. Later, Joseph was falsely accused and thrown into prison for many years. Yet one day, the day appointed by God arrived, and Joseph was ready to become the leader of Egypt. At the moment God gave him the dream, He had already placed within Joseph the potential of a national leader, but a process of growth was necessary. Joseph had to be shaped into a mature leader of a nation, one who would follow God’s guidance with a pure heart.
Perhaps you feel like Joseph in prison. Yes, and it may have been going on for years. My friend, you can be sure that no matter how incomprehensible the events you have gone through may seem, with God they will all have served as teachers for you. It is also significant that God always entrusts us with dreams that we cannot fulfil without Him. Therefore, make a decision to be like Joseph. Believe God’s promises, keep a pure heart, and the day of your dream’s fulfilment will come sooner than you think. And know this, you will be surprised by what is entrusted to you, but you will be ready.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Father, thank You for the dream You have placed deep within my heart. I choose to follow You through every stage of my growth process, whatever those stages may be. I know that You are shaping me into the person who, together with You, will accomplish mighty things. In the name of Jesus, Amen.

BECOME MORE COMPLETE
TODAY'S SCRIPTURE AND REFLECTIONS
Finally, then, brothers, we ask and urge you in the Lord Jesus, that as you received from us how you ought to walk and to please God, just as you are doing, that you do so more and more. For you know what instructions we gave you through the Lord Jesus. For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you abstain from sexual immorality; that each one of you know how to control his own body in holiness and honor, not in the passion of lust like the Gentiles who do not know God; that no one transgress and wrong his brother in this matter, because the Lord is an avenger in all these things, as we told you beforehand and solemnly warned you. For God has not called us for impurity, but in holiness. Therefore whoever disregards this, disregards not man but God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you.
Now concerning brotherly love you have no need for anyone to write to you, for you yourselves have been taught by God to love one another, for that indeed is what you are doing to all the brothers throughout Macedonia. But we urge you, brothers, to do this more and more, and to aspire to live quietly, and to mind your own affairs, and to work with your hands, as we instructed you, so that you may walk properly before outsiders and be dependent on no one.
1 Thessalonians 4:1-12
TODAY'S PRAYER
Father, I commit myself to live for Your pleasure and to follow the teachings of the Bible. I commit myself not to harm my brothers and sisters in faith, but to show them even greater love. I commit myself to work and to do it in such a way that my life will be blameless even towards those who have not yet come to know You. In the name of Jesus, Amen.

STEP OF OBEDIENCE
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
And as soon as those bearing the ark had come as far as the Jordan, and the feet of the priests bearing the ark were dipped in the brink of the water, now the Jordan overflows all its banks throughout the time of harvest, the waters coming down from above stood and rose up in a heap very far away, at Adam, the city that is beside Zarethan, and those flowing down toward the Sea of the Arabah, the Salt Sea, were completely cut off. And the people passed over opposite Jericho. Now the priests bearing the ark of the covenant of the Lord stood firmly on dry ground in the midst of the Jordan, and all Israel was passing over on dry ground until all the nation finished passing over the Jordan.
Joshua 3:15-17
TODAY’S REFLECTION
Today’s Scripture describes an episode from the journey of God’s people towards the Promised Land, the land where milk and honey flow. One day they came face to face with an obstacle, the overflowing River Jordan. It may have seemed impossible to cross the river at that place, let alone on dry ground, but God. He had given instructions that the river would part at the moment when the priests stepped into the water, and all the people would cross the river on dry ground.
In a certain sense, we are all on a journey towards one of God’s promises. And at times naturally insurmountable circumstances stand in our way. In such moments, realise that you are following a supernatural God, a God who responds to actions of faith. Therefore, the miracle promised to you will take place only when you begin to take steps of obedience in faith, following God’s instructions. And it is very likely that the first steps will need to be taken while confronting the obstacles that are trying to stop you.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Father, truly, You are faithful and almighty. I choose to believe Your promises and to take a step towards them. Whatever rivers stand before me, I believe that at the moment I place my foot into them, You will intervene with Your supernatural solution and fulfil Your promise. In the name of Jesus, Amen.

GOD SPEAKS THROUGH YOU
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, God making His appeal through us.
2 Corinthians 5:20
TODAY’S REFLECTION
God has entrusted you with a task that only you can fulfil. You are His messenger and His representative. You are an important part of His divine plan. There is something within you that no one else can offer: your gifts, your smile, your love, your passion, and God desires to use it in a special way.
Although it is easy to become caught up in the affairs of this world and think only about organising your own life, do you realise that you have been saved in order to give hope to someone else? Through faith in Jesus Christ, you have received the gift of eternal life, and now you are able to give it to someone else.
Friend, God wants to speak through you to reveal His love. It is very possible that you are the only one who can proclaim the truth about eternal life that is available by trusting in Jesus. Today, you can say to someone, “Jesus loves you very much. He has a good plan for your life. Trust Him.”
TODAY’S PRAYER
(If possible, pray aloud)
Father, thank You that through Jesus Christ I am united with You and can already enjoy eternal life today. Forgive me for allowing the things of this world to distract my focus from the true task. Teach me to serve the people around me. Thank You for giving me the right words so that I may reveal Your Love to others, in the name of Jesus, Amen.

I AM WITH YOU AND FOR YOU
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?
Romans 8:31
TODAY’S REFLECTION
From the moment you acknowledged Jesus Christ as your Saviour and Lord, God received you as His child. From that moment, you are no longer alone. A loving and all powerful Father is always with you, One who stands for you.
Change your perspective, because you are not a failure, and stop comparing yourself with others. You are a child of the almighty God, unique and entrusted with a special purpose. You are strong and capable of accomplishing everything God has prepared for you. Jesus says about you, “Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes in Me will also do the works that I do, and greater works than these will he do, because I am going to the Father.”
Allow the truth that God is with you and for you to become firmly established in your heart. Be open to His love, fellowship, and guidance. Be expectant and ready to obey when He prompts you to act. Focus on the truth that God is your provider. He has filled you with His Spirit and power. You are God’s friend, and your best days are still ahead of you.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Dear Father, thank You that You are always with me and for me. Thank You for giving me everything I need to accomplish what You have called me to do. Give me a deeper revelation of Your love so that I may live each day in Your strength. In the name of Jesus, Amen.

WHAT MAKES ME STRONG?
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
I can do all things through Him who strengthens me.
Philippians 4:13
TODAY’S REFLECTION
We have all experienced moments when we feel powerless. God knows us very well and understands that we need more strength and wisdom than we possess ourselves. Therefore, to everyone who believes in and follows Jesus, God gives a Helper, God the Holy Spirit.
Now you no longer have to live by doing everything in your own strength alone. God Himself has made His dwelling within you. This makes you capable of accomplishing what you could never achieve on your own. It awakens talents within you that previously lay dormant. It helps you overcome obstacles that once seemed impossible to overcome.
It is important to emphasise that the power of God’s Spirit becomes active only where there is faith. Therefore, instead of complaining that you lack strength, change your thinking and declare over yourself what God says about you.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Father, thank You that You are present within me through the power of Your Spirit. Thank You for making me capable of doing what I could never have accomplished on my own. Truly, I am filled with the Spirit of God. I am provided for by You. I can accomplish all things, God, through Your strength, because You make me strong, in the name of Jesus, Amen.

FOR GOD IT IS NO SURPRISE
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
I have said these things to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart, I have overcome the world.
John 16:33
TODAY’S REFLECTION
No matter how much we try, things will happen in our lives that attempt to bring sorrow. As much as we may wish otherwise, belonging to God in this world does not automatically free us from grief.
At the same time, understand that what is happening is no surprise to God. It may be unexpected for you, but God knows the end from the very beginning. He has solutions for every problem in your life. He is ready not only to lead you through every valley of sorrow, but also to walk through it together with you in true love and care.
Instead of turning your attention to your problem, turn your attention to your God. Receive His peace. Allow Him to give you victory. Allow Him to strengthen and comfort you.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Father, I thank You for the victory of Jesus Christ over every source of sorrow in this world. I choose to hold on to You with all my heart, and I thank You for giving me the grace to keep a confident and steadfast mind. Thank You for Your peace that is flowing into my heart and soul right now. In the name of Jesus, Amen.

THE LORD IS MY STRENGTH
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?
Psalm 27:1
TODAY’S REFLECTION
Almighty God is with you, and therefore you have nothing to fear. He has given you strength that is greater than any opposition. Whatever may rise against you, greater is the God who is within you.
It is very important to understand that your battle is not against people, but against spiritual forces of darkness. In this battle you move forward from a position of victory, because your God, Jesus Christ, defeated the ruler of darkness two thousand years ago. He has given you authority over him and over all his forces of darkness.
Refuse to give up, refuse to fall into fear, and do not allow it to take hold of you. Command the spirit of fear to leave you and allow the peace of God to rule over your heart and mind. Place God first and commit yourself to courage. Move forward, knowing that Almighty God, who loves you deeply, is with you at every step.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Dear Father, today I choose to trust in You. Truly, You are my light and my salvation. I have nothing to fear. Thank You for giving me Your strength and peace. Thank You for Your immeasurable love that drives away all my fears. In the name of Jesus, Amen.

Almighty God is with you, and therefore you have nothing to fear. He has given you strength that is greater than any opposition. Whatever may rise against you, greater is the God who is within you.
It is very important to understand that your battle is not against people, but against spiritual forces of darkness. In this battle you move forward from a position of victory, because your God, Jesus Christ, defeated the ruler of darkness two thousand years ago. He has given you authority over him and over all his forces of darkness.
Refuse to give up, refuse to fall into fear, and do not allow it to take hold of you. Command the spirit of fear to leave you and allow the peace of God to rule over your heart and mind. Place God first and commit yourself to courage. Move forward, knowing that Almighty God, who loves you deeply, is with you at every step.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Dear Father, today I choose to trust in You. Truly, You are my light and my salvation. I have nothing to fear. Thank You for giving me Your strength and peace. Thank You for Your immeasurable love that drives away all my fears. In the name of Jesus, Amen.

THE TREE IS KNOWN BY ITS FRUIT
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or make the tree bad and its fruit bad, for the tree is known by its fruit.
Matthew 12:33
TODAY’S REFLECTION
We all desire to bear good fruit and to live a fruitful and fulfilled life. In the Letter to the Ephesians we read that God has created us in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand for us to walk in. But how can we know whether what we are doing will produce the desired fruit?
One way to discover this is to carry out an inventory of your life. Evaluate where your time, your gifts, your talents, and your resources are being invested. Ask God to reveal which activities are not producing the right fruit.
Then, together with God, begin the process of pruning. Each of us needs this pruning so that we may not only maintain healthy growth in the right direction, but also bear good fruit. Fruit that brings true fulfilment and lasting joy. Yes, this may cause a certain discomfort, yet the good news is that God is present with you and helps you at every step of this process.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Father, thank You that You have the very best prepared for me. Show me what is limiting Your plan in my life. I know that I must go through a season of uncomfortable pruning, and I thank You for helping me through this important process of change. Thank You for making me a good tree that bears good fruit. In the name of Jesus, Amen.

MORE IMPORTANT RELATIONSHIP
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
“If you love Me, you will keep My commandments. And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper, to be with you forever, even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him. You know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you.”
John 14:15 to 17
TODAY’S REFLECTION
Preacher David Diga Hernandez once said, “We love the power of the Holy Spirit, healing, deliverance, miracles, spiritual gifts, yet we rarely pause to think about the presence or the person of the Holy Spirit. He is not energy or an abstract force, but a divine person with thoughts, emotions, and will. He walks with us every moment, every day. Think about it, the Spirit of God who hovered over the waters at the beginning of creation now dwells within you.
When you forget His nearness, life becomes a blurred rush. You move from event to event, from conversation to conversation, without realising that the very presence of God who raised Jesus from the dead lives within you and waits to be recognised.”
Friend, since the moment you chose to follow Jesus, you are no longer alone. The greatest Comforter, Counsellor, Advocate, Intercessor, Strengthener, Teacher, and Helper, God the Holy Spirit, has made His dwelling within you. Right now, you can build a close and personal fellowship with Him that brings a life filled with God’s peace and joy.
TODAY’S PRAYER
(If possible, pray aloud)
Father, I thank You that love for Jesus and obedience to Him have given me the privilege of being filled with Your Holy Spirit. Forgive me for the times when I have ignored this reality. Thank You for giving me the grace to see and know the Spirit of Truth as my closest friend in a deeper way. In the name of Jesus, Amen.
