Isaiah 55:8, 9  “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, and your ways are not my ways.” This is the Lord’s declaration. “For as heaven is higher than earth, so my ways are higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.“ (CSB)

Elevate your game. Think better thoughts. Take better lead actions. Enjoy better outcomes. Think God’s thoughts after him.

I have never had an original thought. There’s a pretty good chance you haven’t, either. Contrary to many of our teachers along the way, originality is not the most important thing in our writing and speaking. Alignment and attunement with the heart and mind of God are much more important. 

God invites us to think with him. (See Isaiah 1:18-20.) He invites to exchange our errant considerations for his perfect understanding and direction (See 55:7.) 

We elevate our game and we improve our lives by pondering God’s words of truth and life. We do this when we make time to read the Bible day by day. We enhance this when we commit to memory verses like these. Knowing God’s heart and mind and allowing him to shape our own leads us in the right direction as we navigate our journeys day by day.

How high will you jump or bounce today? God has an idea for you on that. 

I will elevate my life by thinking God’s thoughts after him.

Our Father, open my heart to your words of truth and life. Give me ears to hear what you are saying. Give me a willing and obedient heart to do what you say, to follow where you lead. Give me your perspective on all things at all times. Amen.

Daily D – Luke 1:76-79

Luke 1:76-79 And you, my child, will be called a prophet of the Most High;
for you will go on before the Lord to prepare the way for him,
to give his people the knowledge of salvation
through the forgiveness of their sins,
because of the tender mercy of our God,
by which the rising sun will come to us from heaven
to shine on those living in darkness
and in the shadow of death,
to guide our feet into the path of peace.
(NIV)

Daily D – John 20:24-28

John 20:24-28 Now Thomas (also known as Didymus), one of the Twelve, was not with the disciples when Jesus came. So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord!”

But he said to them, “Unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe.”

A week later his disciples were in the house again, and Thomas was with them. Though the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you!” Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe.”

Thomas said to him, “My Lord and my God!”

Daily D – John 18:10-11

John 18:10, 11 Then Simon Peter, who had a sword, drew it and struck the high priest’s servant, cutting off his right ear. (The servant’s name was Malchus.) Jesus commanded Peter, “Put your sword away! Shall I not drink the cup the Father has given me?”

Daily D – John 13:3-5

John 13:3-5 Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under his power, and that he had come from God and was returning to God; so he got up from the meal, took off his outer clothing, and wrapped a towel around his waist. After that, he poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel that was wrapped around him.

Daily D – John 11:6

John 11:6 “So when he heard that Lazarus was sick, he stayed where he was two more days, . . .”
