Daily D – Acts 16:14

by David Bowman | Oct 13, 2024 | Daily D | 0 comments

Acts 16:14 A God-fearing woman named Lydia, a dealer in purple cloth from the city of Thyatira, was listening. The Lord opened her heart to respond to what Paul was saying. (CSB)

Here’s a good prayer for those you want to see come to know Jesus: Ask Our Father in Heaven to open that person’s heart to respond favorably to the invitation to know and experience the gift of salvation.

On this occasion, Paul prayed and preached. God used Paul’s prayers and preaching to open Lydia’s heart to respond. This is similar to what Jesus did after the resurrection in Luke 24:45, which says, “Then he opened their minds to understand the Scriptures.”

Who do you know who could use an open heart and mind toward God? Ask God to open their hearts to receive his gift of salvation, to open their minds to his grace and truth.

I will pray for those who need to know and experience Jesus.

—

Our Father, I bring to you today loved ones, friends, neighbors, and acquaintances who need to know you. Open their hearts and minds so they may see you for who you are, receive your gift of salvation, and become the kind of followers who invite others to know and experience you. Amen.

Commit everything you do to the LORD.
Trust him, and he will help you.

and the justice of your cause will shine like the noonday sun.

Daily D – Habakkuk 3:17-19

Habakkuk 3:17-19
Even though the fig trees have no blossoms,
and there are no grapes on the vines;
even though the olive crop fails,
and the fields lie empty and barren;
even though the flocks die in the fields,
and the cattle barns are empty,
The Sovereign Lord is my strength!

Daily D – Psalm 36:5-6

Psalm 36:5, 6
God’s love is meteoric,
his loyalty astronomic,
His purpose titanic,
his verdicts oceanic.
Yet in his largeness nothing gets lost;
Not a man, not a mouse,
slips through the cracks.
