WEAR A GARMENT OF PRAISE

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

WHEN YOU WEAR A GARMENT OF PRAISE, YOU’LL STAND STRONG

What type of attitude are you wearing today? What’s covering your mind and emotions? Are you clothed with despair and disappointment? Are you wearing “heaviness?”

If you’ve recently gone through a hurtful or disappointing situation, there is a SEASON to grieve a loss. It’s important to go through that process and RELEASE the hurt to God. But the Bible also says that God wants to give you a GARMENT of PRAISE instead of a spirit of heaviness or despair. He wants to exchange your hurt for His HEALING. He wants to fill you with His PEACE and JOY.

Are the GARMENTS of yesterday holding you back and weighing you down? Maybe it’s time to EXCHANGE that heaviness for His GARMENT of PRAISE. Maybe it’s time to RELEASE those heavy burdens. Maybe it’s time to FORGIVE those who have hurt you and begin to PRAISE your way to VICTORY. When you wear a GARMENT of PRAISE, you’ll stand STRONG and display His SPLENDOR all the days of your life.

TODAYS SCRIPTURE

“Provide for those who grieve…a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the Lord for the display of his splendor.”
(Isaiah 61:3, NIV)

YOU HAVE TO TRUST GOD

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

 

YOU HAVE TO TRUST THAT GOD HAS YOUR BEST INTEREST AT HEART

God is a mighty DELIVERER! Today, you may feel afflicted, overwhelmed or burdened by the cares of life. Know this: God is working to bring you OUT of that difficult situation. It may not be in the way YOU thought, but you have to TRUST that God has YOUR best interest at heart.

Afflictions can take on many forms—a sickness or hardship, a temptation, a difficult coworker or contentious family member. There are so many things that can come against us. Remember, those afflictions are only TEMPORARY. Stand in FAITH today believing that God IS on your side. It doesn’t matter what your circumstances look like, why don’t you get up every morning and say, “This is the day that the Lord has made; I will rejoice and be glad in it!” You may not FEEL like rejoicing in the moment, but if you’ll look out with your eyes of FAITH, you’ll see your Deliverer IS coming. As you stand and TRUST the Lord, He will EMPOWER you to OVERCOME all of those afflictions, and you’ll see His hand of BLESSING in every area of your life.

TODAYS SCRIPTURE

“Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the LORD delivers him out of them all.”
(Psalm 34:19, NKJV)
