Word of the Day: God wants to bless your professional life!
God wants to help you sustain yourself and do good work! He has the power to give you a job and help you succeed. God blesses those who strive and give their best. Glorify God in the way you work or seek employment, and He will bless you!
The Lord will send a blessing on your barns and on everything you put your hand to. The Lord your God will bless you in the land he is giving you.
Deuteronomy 28:8
God's blessing is more than just a large salary. Deuteronomy 28:8 speaks of provision and favor in all aspects of our work, promising blessings upon everything we put our hands to. We can be assured that when we approach our work with faith and expectation, God is intimately involved in every detail of our professional lives.
Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.
Proverbs 16:3
God wants to bless us! But we have to recognize that God is the ultimate provider of opportunities and success shifts our perspective. While hard work and dedication are essential, ultimately, it is God who opens doors and grants favor in our careers. Proverbs 16:3 reminds us to commit our work to the Lord, acknowledging His sovereignty over our plans and endeavors.
Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters.
- Colossians 3:23
More than many things, our attitude and heart are crucial. In Colossians 3:23 Paul is encouraging the church to work wholeheartedly, looking for heavenly, rather than for human approval. This perspective transforms even mundane tasks into acts of worship, elevating the significance of our daily labor.

Word of the Day: Don't Give Up, You're More Than a Winner
37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 8:37-39
Do you realize that God will never abandon you? Your situation may be dire but don't give up. God is in control of everything, and has already taken action to provide you with success!
When God promised to take the people of Israel out of Egypt, things became a lot tougher at first. For those who were enslaved, their work increased, and the harshness of the taskmasters more and more. Hope diminished each time Pharaoh said no. But God is faithful, he liberated His people.
11 and brought Israel out from among them
His love endures forever.
12 with a mighty hand and outstretched arm;
His love endures forever.13 to him who divided the Red Sea asunder
His love endures forever.
14 and brought Israel through the midst of it,
His love endures forever.
15 but swept Pharaoh and his army into the Red Sea;
His love endures forever.16 to him who led his people through the wilderness;
His love endures forever.Psalm 136:11-16
Through the cross and the death of Jesus, God has also liberated us. Life now may be difficult, we face daily struggles, but what about the 'big picture'? - death itself has been conquered so that we can spend eternity with God. We have been given the assurance that nothing will ever be able to separate us from the love of God. God loves you, and His love endures forever!
With God's love, we are champions!
Day Before Yesterday's Word
Word of the Day: Prayers of Worship
9 “This, then, is how you should pray:
“‘Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
10 your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Matthew 6:9-10
One type of prayer we can offer to God is prayers of worship or adoration. Worshiping God involves adoring Him and dedicating ourselves to Him, choosing to do His will every day. By worshiping God, we acknowledge His greatness and lordship, we lift up His name, and open our hearts to Him. In praying in worship, our focus is on God, not on ourselves.
The Bible calls us to worship God with all our hearts, not just in words, but in spirit and truth.
23 Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. 24 God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth.”
John 4:23-24
Praying in worship to God requires us to examine our hearts and our entire being more closely. How can I please God more? How can I draw closer to Him and His will for my life?
Pray every day, putting God first in your life, acknowledging His love and all He has done for you. Express your desire to live in obedience and inquire how you can do His will. Pray and worship the One who deserves it, the Lord God and Savior who loves you so much.
