Get Ready

Then Joshua told the people, “Consecrate yourselves, for tomorrow the Lord will do amazing things among you.” Joshua 3:5 NIV

Joshua reminds you to get ready for amazing things. Consecrate and make yourself holy today in preparation for amazing adventures with the Lord tomorrow.

How will you prepare? How will you consecrate or set yourself apart? Take note and put it into practice.

Joshua is telling the people to dedicate themselves to the Lord. The Lord works amazing things through people when they are wholeheartedly devoted to Him.

Spend time today consecrating and dedicating yourself to the Lord. Don’t risk missing the amazing things He’ll do through you!

Celebrate!

“Celebrate God all day, every day. I mean, revel in Him!” Philippians 4:4 MSG

Celebrate God everyday!

That is a thought that comes so easy for me today. You know, today – the day that everything went right, the day where no one criticized me or even the day where my children and husband were happy and healthy.

But what about those days, most days, where things don’t fall so perfectly into place? The days when bills need to be paid and the cash is short, the days I’m ill and others are counting on me, the moments I’m frustrated and others seem so quickly to put me down or the days I’m just tired and the children still need help with their homework.

Even then, celebrate! Everyday means; everyday, every hour, every minute, every moment. Most moments aren’t perfect and praise doesn’t come so easily. Yet, I’m to train myself to celebrate, praise, and adore Christ at every moment.

Begin your day with a prayer of celebration, whether you feel like it or not. Don’t let your circumstance rule over your celebration time. Celebrating God brightens even the gloomiest of moments.

Yes, celebrate and revel in Him!
