Today’s Scripture: Genesis 28:20-22 NIV – Then Jacob made a vow, saying, "If God will be with me and will watch over me on this journey I am taking and will give me food to eat and clothes to wear so that I return safely to my father's house, then the Lord will be my God and this stone that I have set up as a pillar will be God's house, and of all that you give me I will give you a tenth."
Today’s Word: Terms
Today’s Prayer: Dear Lord I hope my prayers are not like Jacob’s – according to his terms: I’ll be good to you God if you’ll be good to me. What kind of prayer is that? I don’t want to put you in a box or bring you down to my terms and pleasures. I want my prayers to seek your will and bring me up to your terms. In Ephesians 1:5 you tell me that I was created for your good pleasure. I like that. What can I do today to please you? Who can I talk to? Show me your pleasure; open my eyes to see and my ears to hear your terms for my life. Amen.
