TODAY’S READING:

When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the LORD appeared to him and said, “I am God Almighty; walk before me faithfully and be blameless.

Genesis 17:1

 

Happy Monday! Just a quick devotional to remind us, why we do what we do. Why do we say thank you, why do we smile when we get “bad news”, why do we shake off bad medical reports, why do we find joy in the little things? The answer is simple, we do not serve bad reports, or job rejections, we service El Shaddai – the Lord Almighty. 

 

Hillsong has a song called Love so Great and the lyrics say “You are the lord almighty, out shinning all the stars in glory, your love is like the wildest ocean, oh nothing can compare.”

 

Yes, doctor reports can be scary, and yes after going through four rounds of interview only to hear you weren’t right for the job can be defeated, but nothing in this world can compare to the Lord we serve. 

 

So let me remind you and really let me remind any circumstance, any mountain, any speed bump you are facing – we serve The Lord Almighty, meaning nothing can get in our way of gratitude, joy, and the love we share for Him and His creation. 

 

PRAYER


Father, we love you. We know there is nothing in this world that can outdo who you are, and what you mean to us. Lord, you are the Almighty One. The king above all kings. You tell the waves to stop, you spread the stars across the night sky. You are fighting for us, protecting us, providing for us, you are the Lord Almighty, you are El Shaddai and we are so thankful we get to do life with you. We pray that you continue to keep us and bless us. Watch over us this beautiful week. It is in your HOLY name that we pray, AMEN!
