Today's Verse: Ephesians 4:24

Wednesday, January 4, 2017

...and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.
— Ephesians 4:24

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

One of the biggest decisions we face at the beginning of each day is what we will wear. Well, no matter what we choose in the way of clothing, let's make sure we choose to put on the new person God re-made us to be when we became Christians (Galatians 3:26-27). Those are the only clothes that will fit us eternally!

My Prayer...

Dear Father, may people see the character and likeness of Jesus in me today. Lord Jesus, in your name I ask that you please guide my decisions and help me know how you would have me act in the situations I face today. Precious and powerful Holy Spirit, please fill me and continue your work in transforming me. Amen.
