JANUARY 7 – REFUGE

1/7 Psalm 31:15-19
My times are in your hands; deliver me from my enemies and from those who
pursue me. 16 Let your face shine on your servant; save me in your unfailing
love. 17 Let me not be put to shame, O LORD, for I have cried out to you; but let the wicked be put to shame and lie silent in the grave. 18 Let their lying lips be silenced, for with pride and contempt they speak arrogantly against the righteous. 19 How great is your goodness, which you have stored up for those who fear you, which you bestow in the sight of men on those who take refuge in you.
REFUGE
The Lord is our refuge. In Christ we have victory in our life. In Jesus we are and will be undefeated.

JANUARY 6 – TRUST

1/6 Psalm 31:8-14
You have not handed me over to the enemy but have set my feet in a spacious
place. 9 Be merciful to me, O LORD, for I am in distress; my eyes grow weak
with sorrow, my soul and my body with grief. 10 My life is consumed by anguish
and my years by groaning; my strength fails because of my affliction, and my
bones grow weak. 11 Because of all my enemies, I am the utter contempt of my
neighbors; I am a dread to my friends– those who see me on the street flee from
me. 12 I am forgotten by them as though I were dead; I have become like broken-pottery. 13 For I hear the slander of many; there is terror on every side; they
conspire against me and plot to take my life. 14 But I trust in you, O LORD; I
say, “You are my God.”
TRUST
Trust in the Lord. He is trustworthy.

JANUARY 5 – KNEW

1/5 Psalm 31:5-7
Into your hands I commit my spirit; redeem me, O LORD, the God of truth. 6 I
hate those who cling to worthless idols; I trust in the LORD. 7 I will be glad and
rejoice in your love, for you saw my affliction and knew the anguish of my soul.
KNEW
Jesus knew my pain before I felt it. He knows everything that is going on in my life. Lord hear me as I pray and He does.

JANUARY 4 – STRENGTH

1/4 Psalm 31:3-4
Since you are my rock and my fortress, for the sake of your name lead and guide
me. 4 Free me from the trap that is set for me, for you are my refuge.
STRENGTH
The Lord is my strength. He is there for me no matter what I face or how I respond.

JANUARY 3 – SALVATION

1/3 Psalm 31:1-2
In you, O LORD, I have taken refuge; let me never be put to shame; deliver me
in your righteousness. 2 Turn your ear to me, come quickly to my rescue; be my
rock of refuge, a strong fortress to save me.
SALVATION
THere is salvation in no other. Jesus is the only way to the Father. Ask Jesus to forgive you and come into your heart.

JANUARY 2 – YOU

1/2 Ephesians 4:22-24
You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self,
which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; 23 to be made new in the
attitude of your minds; 24 and to put on the new self, created to be like God in
true righteousness and holiness.
YOU
Put off sin. Change your ways. Jesus will give you the strength you need but you must do it.

JANUARY 1- WE

1/1. 2 Corinthians 5:16-21
So from now on we regard no one from a worldly point of view. Though we once
regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer. 17 herefore, if anyone is in
Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come! 18 All this is
from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry
of reconciliation: 19 that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not
counting men’s sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of
reconciliation. 20 We are therefore Christ’s ambassadors, as though God were
making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ’s behalf: Be reconciled
to God. 21 God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we
might become the righteousness of God.
WE
We are included in the family of God by work that Jesus did on the Cross. We have forgiveness and presence. Jesus loves you.

DECEMBER 31 – HOLY SPIRIT

12/31 Ezekiel 11:19-20
19 I will give them an undivided heart and put a new spirit in them; I will remove from them their heart of stone and give them a heart of flesh. 20 Then they will follow my decrees and be careful to keep my laws. They will be my people, and I will be their God.
HOLY SPIRIT
We are filled with the Holy Spirit. We walk in the Spirit. We live in Jesus. Praise the Lord for He is our life. Jesus is Lord.

DECEMBER 30 – LOVE

12/30 Deuteronomy 7:11-13
11 Therefore, take care to follow the commands, decrees and laws I give you today. 12 If you pay attention to these laws and are careful to follow them, then the LORD your God will keep his covenant of love with you, as he swore to your forefathers. 13 He will love you and bless you and increase your numbers. He will bless the fruit of your womb, the crops of your land–your grain, new wine and oil–the calves of your herds and the lambs of your flocks in the land that he swore to your forefathers to give you.
LOVE
Jesus loves you. He brought us love from the Father. He gives us His love and enables us to love. Jesus loves you.

DECEMBER 29 – PRAISE

12/29 Psalm 98:1-9
Sing to the LORD a new song, for he has done marvelous things; his right hand and his holy arm have worked salvation for him. 2 The LORD has made his salvation known and revealed his righteousness to the nations. 3 He has remembered his love and his faithfulness to the house of Israel; all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God. 4 Shout for joy to the LORD, all the earth, burst into jubilant song with music; 5 make music to the LORD with the harp, with the harp and the sound of singing, 6 with trumpets and the blast of the ram’s horn– shout for joy before the LORD, the King. 7 Let the sea resound, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it. 8 Let the rivers clap their hands, let the mountains sing together for joy; 9 let them sing before the LORD, for he comes to judge the earth. He will judge the world in righteousness and the peoples with equity.
PRAISE
Praise the Lord for all things and in all things. Jesus is Lord and He is our Lord. Praise the Lord. Jesus is Lord.
