Today's Word
Word of the Day: God has the best for you!
God sees and knows what is to come. He knows our future just as He knows our past and sees our present. He knows our steps and signals to us which path we should follow. The Lord knows us well enough to protect us from wrong paths, especially from ourselves.
8 “For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,”
declares the Lord.
9 “As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts.Isaiah 55:8-9
Therefore, do not be anxious about tomorrow. The future belongs to God, and He has already prepared the best for us. God's plans are always better than ours. He definitely knows what's best for you.
Every Christian should live NOT by what they see, feel, or desire but live by FAITH in Christ, based on His Word.
Our field of vision is quite limited, and sometimes we do not perceive the complete reality we live in. Believe that today's tribulation can transform into tomorrow's victory and joy. Therefore, continue to believe in the Lord's promises.
We know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
Romans 8:28
God has already prepared the best, believe!

Word of the Day: To whom do you belong?
We all belong to someone. We can be slaves to our sins or we can belong to God. When you believe in Jesus as your Savior, God frees you from slavery to sin and adopts you as his child. You belong to God just as a child belongs to their father! And God offers you all the privileges of being his child: the love, provision, and protection of God. But, we have to choose for ourselves to belong to God:
14 “Now fear the Lord and serve him with all faithfulness. Throw away the gods your ancestors worshiped beyond the Euphrates River and in Egypt, and serve the Lord. 15 But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.”
Joshua 24:14-15
The famous words of Joshua 24:15 are some of the last words of Joshua. He was an old man, who had led the people since Moses and had served God faithfully. In these last words of Joshua (Joshua 24: 2-23), he addresses the Israelites before his death. Joshua begins by reminding the people of the history of Israel, their time in Egypt, the exodus, and their arrival at the Promised Land. Joshua then reminds the people of all that God has done: delivering them from slavery, guiding them through the wilderness, and all the many victories God granted them over their enemies.
At this point, Joshua challenges the Israelites - Who do you serve? To whom do you belong? Joshua makes it a choice: the people can either serve the Lord wholeheartedly, or they can follow after the gods of the surrounding nations. Joshua makes his intentions clear: But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord. In the following verses we can see that the Israelites respond positively, they declare their commitment to serve the Lord alone.
We have the same question to answer: Who do we serve? There is no distinction between who you serve, and who you belong to; they ultimately mean the same thing. You can't serve false idols, prioritize money, your career, or possessions, and think that you belong to God... so we should be very careful, and reflect on what it is we have made our priorities. Who do we serve? To whom do you belong?
Day Before Yesterday's Word
Word of the Day: Talk less and listen more!
We all have a friend who is a chatterbox, someone with the 'gift of the gab', talking too much is a common flaw in many people. Those who understand the power of silence and listening are the ones who truly master the art of speech. Usually, people struggle to communicate well because they can't listen properly and talk too much! Perhaps that's why God gave us 2 ears and only one mouth... Think about it and reflect on whether you're someone who talks too much, not letting others express their ideas. Listen more, reflect before speaking, and only then speak, with wisdom.
My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry,
James 1:19
Remember: Listening to what others say is a form of humility and love.
