Today's Bible Verse
"For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishly: therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars."
2 Chronicles 16:9 King James Version (KJV)

Today's Bible Study
There is a great lie in the world that states if there is a god, then he or she probably wound up the world and then left it alone to run its natural course.

The lie goes on to claim that if a god did create the universe, then he/she really isn’t much interested in it.

However, the good news of Jesus is the exact opposite. Yes, we affirm that there is a Creator. This Creator is actively involved in His creation.

One needs to look no further than the first few chapters of Genesis to see God’s profound interest in His creation.

God “walked in the garden in the cool of the day” where Adam and Eve lived (Genesis 3:8). God made coats of skins to cover Adam and Eve’s nakedness (Genesis 3:21). He confronted Cain after he had killed his brother, Abel (Genesis 4:9). God spoke with Noah and revealed His plan to destroy the earth’s inhabitants with a flood. (Genesis 6:13).

I love knowing that even today God’s eyes run to and fro, watching over His world, looking for those whose hearts are for Him.

Today, rest in the knowledge that Your Father in heaven loves you, watches over you, and is eager to see how you will live and respond to this truth.
Today's Prayer
Father of creation, thank You for your gift of life. Thank You for the truth that You are a God who loves and works in His creation. I thank You that You are with me right now at this moment. Please make Yourself real to me today. I ask for Jesus’ glory. Amen.

Yesterday's Bible Verse
"For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith."
1 John 5:4 King James Version (KJV)

Yesterday's Bible Study
Just one chapter before this verse, John calls his fellow followers of Jesus little children who have overcome. He then goes on to say that we, as little children, have a great truth within us. That truth is this: He that is in us is greater than he that is in the world (1 John 4:4).

John goes on to encourage all believers with these words. We who are born of God will overcome the world because of our faith in what our God has done.

Nothing you are facing today has come as a surprise to God. Nothing in this world can defeat those who are born of God. He that is in you IS greater than he that is in the world.

I encourage you today to live and pray from this position. Jesus died to make your relationship with God possible.
Yesterday's Prayer
Father, I thank You for the privilege of prayer. I thank you for this reminder of how powerful You are. I thank You for the truth that You are greater than anything the world can throw at me or offer me. My treasure is in Jesus. My identity is as Your child. My assignment is to bless, and Your presence is my lifeline. Come, Holy Spirit. Amen.
