It's seen as PRAISE and it's seen as FAITH

Morning Devotion with Kelly McFadden -
God delights in the praise of His people. Jesus spoke out against the Pharisees who glorified God in appearance, but inside their hearts were calloused and focused on their own agenda. In contrast, Jesus desires that we come before the Lord with a heart of worship that matches a life of praise. This kind of life doesn’t only bow before the throne of God at church services, but makes praise and worship a part of daily actions, attitude, and heart condition.




Morning Encouragement with Sarah Young-
Remember that Satan is the accuser of believers. He delights in heaping guilt feelings upon you, especially when you are enjoying My Presence. When you feel Satan's arrows of accusation, you are probably on the right track. Use your shield of faith to protect yourself from him. Talk with Me about what you are experiencing, and ask Me to show you the way forward. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Come near to Me, and I will come near to you.




Verses for this morning:

"In addition to this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one" Ephesians 6:16

"Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded" James 4:7-8
