Day 10 of 365: My Soul Says Yes

Greetings, Precious Family:

May the abundant and everlasting peace of the Lord be with you always.

Family, in this Season of saying “Yes” to God, I pray that we all will become more sensitive to the voice and unction of the Holy Spirit. I know that everyone who is reading this may not be a lover of God. In fact, many people have varying degrees of hurt and pain caused by people inside the church. That is one of the reasons I began writing. Each reader will be able to take their own journey with God.

I pray that over the course of this year that hearts will be healed, and someone will return to God in a new way. Intimacy with God can take many forms, not just inside the church. If that is you, I love you with the everlasting and never-ending love of Jesus Christ, our Lord, Savior, Redeemer, and Chief Intercessor at the right hand of God.

Scripture of the Day

1 Samuel 3:8-10
New International Version


8 A third time the Lord called, “Samuel!” And Samuel got up and went to Eli and said, “Here I am; you called me.”

Then Eli realized that the Lord was calling the boy. 9 So Eli told Samuel, “Go and lie down, and if he calls you, say, ‘Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening.’” So Samuel went and lay down in his place.

10 The Lord came and stood there, calling as at the other times, “Samuel! Samuel!”

Then Samuel said, “Speak, for your servant is listening.”

Prayer of the Day

Spirit of the Living God. We are listening and ready for what you have called us to do. May we answer only to your voice. Cover and protect us as we step out to do the will of God the Father. Walk this walk with us as we draw closer to you. May lives be changed by our obedience to you. In Jesus name.

And we let it be… And so it is…

Amen, Amen and Amen

My Soul Says, “Yes.”

Psalm 19:7-14

New International Version

The law of the Lord is perfect,
    refreshing the soul.
The statutes of the Lord are trustworthy,
    making wise the simple.
The precepts of the Lord are right,
    giving joy to the heart.
The commands of the Lord are radiant,
    giving light to the eyes.
The fear of the Lord is pure,
    enduring forever.
The decrees of the Lord are firm,
    and all of them are righteous.

10 They are more precious than gold,
    than much pure gold;
they are sweeter than honey,
    than honey from the honeycomb.
11 By them your servant is warned;
    in keeping them there is great reward.
12 But who can discern their own errors?
    Forgive my hidden faults.
13 Keep your servant also from willful sins;
    may they not rule over me.
Then I will be blameless,
    innocent of great transgression.

14 May these words of my mouth and this meditation of my heart
    be pleasing in your sight,
    Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer.

OUR PRAYER

Precious Heavenly Father,

We thank you for continually stretching and molding us to your will. May our response always be, “Yes,” when you have need of us. May our motivation be pure and led by love and not fear. We glorify your name and thank you for your most precious gift, Jesus Christ our Lord, Savior and Redeemer. It is in His name that we lift this prayer to you. Amen.
