Heed the LORD

My voice You shall hear in the morning, O LORD; In the morning I will direct it to You, And I will look up. —Psalm 5:3

Maintenance is important in our spiritual lives. Taking time each day to read the Bible, pray, and listen to God is a key element in avoiding a breakdown. In Psalm 5:3, David wrote, “My voice You shall hear in the morning, O Lord; in the morning I will direct it to You”. In the following verses, he poured out his heart in praise, thanksgiving, and requests to God.

Many people find it essential to begin every day with the Lord. Before they do anything, they find some quiet moments alone to read a portion of God’s Word, praise Him for His greatness, thank Him for His love, and seek His guidance. Others spend time reading and praying at different times of the day.

We need to ask the Lord each day to fill our hearts with His presence on the road of life. 

The roots of stability come from being grounded in God’s Word and prayer.

Powerful Witness

But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.

 —Acts 1:8

The Lord Jesus Christ challenged His disciples to tell others about the love of God.

They would receive power when the Holy Spirit had come upon Him.

And they would be witnesses to the Lord Jesus Christ in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth”.

Through the Holy Spirit, our words and witness can have the power to make an eternal difference in the lives of others.
