Word For Today

Your Word for Today is Not New to Jesus

If your Word for Today is troubling you deep within your spirit and soul

God’s Word is sharp enough to penetrate to the depths of your emotions

God has seen it all from the beginning of creation

Your situation is not new or hidden from Him  

You may not be able to speak the word that describes your day

But the Spirit of God intercedes for us with groans

When words cannot be expressed

Our God, Jesus Christ, can sympathize with us

He became like us to experience the things that we experience

He can define your Word for Today

And reveal how to live out that word without sin

So whatever your Word for Today is you can take that word to Him

God’s Word is alive and real as your Word for Today

Your Word for Today is Not New to Jesus

What is your Word for Today?

Maybe your word is WORK.

If so…

Slaves, obey your earthly masters in everything; and do it, not only when their eye is on you and to win their favor, but with sincerity of heart and reverence for the Lord. Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.

Colossians 3:22-25

Maybe your word is REST…

There remains, then, a Sabbath — rest for the people of God; for anyone who enters God's rest also rests from his own work, just as God did from his. Let us, therefore, make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will fall by following their example of disobedience.

Hebrews 4:9-11

Maybe your word is FAMILY…

These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.

Deuteronomy 6:6-7

Maybe your word is FRIENDS…

Do not forsake your friend and the friend of your father,

and do not go to your brother's house when disaster strikes you —

better a neighbor nearby than a brother far away.

Proverbs 27:10

Maybe your word is SORROW…

The LORD is close to the brokenhearted

and saves those who are crushed in spirit.

Psalm 34:18

Maybe your word is JOY…

Nehemiah said, "Go and enjoy choice food and sweet drinks, and send some to those who have nothing prepared. This day is sacred to our Lord. Do not grieve, for the joy of the LORD is your strength."

Nehemiah 8:10

No matter what word describes your day,

 God’s Word has something to say to you.

When it comes to God’s Word

there is nothing new under the sun.

If your Word for Today is troubling you

deep within your spirit and soul…

 God’s Word is sharp enough to

penetrate to the depths of your emotions.

God has seen it all.

 From the beginning of creation your situation

is not new or hidden from Him.

   

You may not be able to speak the word

that describes your day…

But the Spirit of God intercedes for us with

groans when words cannot be expressed.

Our God, Jesus Christ,

can sympathize with us.

He became like us to experience

the things that we experience.

He can define your Word for Today and

reveal how to live out that word without sin.

So whatever your Word for Today is

you can take that word to Him.

Because His throne is a throne of grace.

His favor is on you.

He wants you to receive the full benefit.

If your word is SORROW…

 He will turn it to joy.

If your word is JOY…

 He will increase it so your

joy will flow out to others.

He is there with mercy and praise.

No matter what your Word for Today is…

 God knows what time it is.

Take your Word for Today to Him.

 Let Him bring greater definition and insight…

 “Wince we have a great high priest who has gone through the heavens,

Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess.”

God’s Word is alive and real

as your Word for Today.

     

Scripture Reading

Hebrews 4:12-16 NIV

12 For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. 13 Nothing in all creation is hidden from God's sight Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account.

14 Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has gone through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess. 15 For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are — yet was without sin. 16 Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.
