daily prayer

Great morning! How are we faithing this fine day? So many things crop up day to day and sometimes they are obvious as to our role and sometimes we ponder and wonder "what the?" It seems we try to fight the good fight only to be beat down or for things to simply blow up in our faces. Trying to hold onto our faith with unwavering courage does not always seem possible. Questions arise that make us pause and view things from a different perspective even when we thought we already had that issue settled. The Word is the only thing that can keep us on the narrow path otherwise we would be pulled off in many directions. I have Christian friends that view things and see things from the worldly point of view only because they are bombarded through media and hype. They are not even aware they are being influenced but those things. Things that have been accepted for a hand full of decades are considered righteous. Man, as Christians we need to test and question everything from media to the pulpit. Error can be intentional and or unintentional. Our job for our faith is to search out these premises on our own as well as by listening to wise people of faith. Checking scripture when we hear is to solidify truth and to refute lies. Where are you on issues and why? How do you test and verify concepts? What gauge do you use?

Heavenly Father,
Thank you for your Word that guides all we do. Lord, keep us fully aware of the pitfalls we face. Help us recognise deceit and dismiss folly that leads us away from truth. Lord we lift those who need your touch today. Heal and comfort those in need, in Jesus name, amen
