TOTD, October 11-13

The Lord’s Purpose That Prevails

We can plan so many things. We can plan about 5 years from now, 10 years from now, or even more. Of course we need to plan our life properly, but just remember as well that we need to ask God in every plan that we make. Because eventually His Plan is the best for us. He knows us very well, even better than we know ourselves, so let His purpose prevails in our life. (-fon-)

“Listen to advice and accept instruction, and in the end you will be wise. Many are the plans in a man's heart, but it is the LORD's purpose that prevails.”
--- Proverbs 19:20-21


Secret of Contentment

The book of Philippians chapter 4 shows us how to live this life. We need to learn to be content in any circumstance- either in times of abundance or in times of needs, whether when we’re satisfied or not.
This is a very important message that we need to learn more nowadays. While so many unpleasant changes happen, while so many turmoil can be seen in each day of our life, we need to learn how to be content in every situation. The secret lies within our relationship with the Lord, so that He can strengthen us. (-fon-)

I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content in any circumstance.I have experienced times of need and times of abundance. In any and every circumstance I have learned the secret of contentment, whether I go satisfied or hungry, have plenty or nothing
--- Philippians 4:11-12


A Prayer of Praise

Found this interesting prayer of praise in the book of Jude:

Now all glory to God, who is able to keep you from falling away and will bring you with great joy into his glorious presence without a single fault. All glory to him who alone is God, our Savior through Jesus Christ our Lord. All glory, majesty, power, and authority are his before all time, and in the present, and beyond all time! Amen.
--- Jude 1:24-25


Yes, all glory-majesty-power-authority are His before all time! Let’s praise Him with all our heart. (-fon-)
