TOTD, August 10-12

Faith in the Name

Victory is not in having the Name of the Lord to use; victory is in having faith in the Name of Jesus and using it properly. Be careful not to use His Name frivolously or to no real purpose. We should revere His Name.

By faith in the name of Jesus, this man whom you see and know was made strong. It is Jesus' name and the faith that comes through him that has given this complete healing to him, as you can all see.
--- Acts 3:16

My own reflection on this Thought:
* His Name is powerful. So, never use His Name as a joke. That's the message of today's thought. In His Name, we put our faith, that everything would bow down.
If we have a problem in praying, just pray the Name. (-fon-)


Make the Most of Time

Indecision wastes a lot of time, and time is too precious to waste. Become a decisive person, and you will accomplish a lot more with less effort.

Making the very most of the time [buying up each opportunity], because the days are evil.
--- Ephesians 5:16

My own reflection on this Thought:
* Time is precious, never waste it.
We usually like to delay something without realizing the effect of the delay would be so serious.
Make the very most of this time. (-fon-)

Never Fear Rejection

In order to sustain healthy, loving, lasting relationships, a person must not fear rejection. When this fear becomes the motivation factor in the life of an individual, they will spend their time trying to avoid it rather than building healthy relationships.

For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and self-discipline.
--- 2 Timothy 1:7

My own reflection on this Thought:
* God gives us a spirit of power. That's what we might forget. Sometimes in this life, we have so many things that we're afraid of, but never forget that we have His power within us through the Holy Spirit.
In case that we feel we're unable, just remember that He is Able! (-fon-)
