Todays Devotion Prayer Scripture Reading Reflection

Daily Scripture Reading: Psalms 63:8 Psalm 63:8 KJV(8)  My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me. Today’s Devotional Is THE GROWTH OF THE SOUL This Psalm contains three notes that signify the stages of the soul’s growth. They are “My soul thirsteth after Thee”, “My soul shall be satisfied” and “My soul follows hard after Thee.” It is possible to be in a spiritual desert, the dark night for the soul, or the season of depression and dryness that are all too common. Sometimes, such as Elijah’s death request or John’s despairing question to Christ in prison, this is due to mental or physical overtraining. In such cases, we should not hesitate to call God “my God.” … Read Bible Verses

Daily Scripture Reading: Luke 12:15 KJV Luke 12:15 KJV(15)  And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.

His ministry reached deeper into the springs of action. He saw that each brother had the root of covetousness which caused them to wrong one another. He uncovered the sin that … Read Bible Verses
