Arguing with God
“How then can I dispute with him? How can I find words to argue with him?”—Job 9:14 (NIV)
Have you ever tried to argue with God only to realize the error of your thinking? God is never wrong. Yet, by openly disagreeing with Him, you often open a dialogue that will help you better understand His ways. Approach Him with honest prayer. Your most important action is to turn to Him.
Heavenly Father, I may not be happy with what is happening, but who am I to argue with You?

Prune Your Priorities
He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful.—John 15:2 (NIV)
Do you feel tired and overwhelmed by all you want to do in a day? Ask God to help you prioritize your goals. Focus on the peace of His presence. Turn to Him for guidance on what is important right now and what can wait for another day.
Dear Lord, there is so much I want to do. Help me focus first on You so that all my efforts bear fruit.

Angels Surround Us
When the angel of the Lord appeared to Gideon, he said, “The Lord is with you, mighty warrior.”—Judges 6:12 (NIV)

Lord, thank You for sending Your angels to watch over me.

These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full.—John 15:11 (ESV)

Loving Father, because I trust in You, my heart is filled with joy.

Clear Your Conscience
How much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, purify our conscience from dead works to serve the living God.—Hebrews 9:14 (ESV)
Is your conscience troubling you over a deed, thought or action that causes you shame? Pray and open up to God. Instead of burying your wrongdoing, confess it and be free. Thank Him for His forgiveness and unending mercy.
Holy Lord, purify my conscience. Help me release my guilt over my transgressions.
