Romans 15:13 NLT
Day 5, counting down the Advent. Wouldn't we all love to overflow with confident hope? To overflow, we must first be filled by the source of our hope. Have we properly prepared our hearts to be able to receive from God?
What good is hope if there is no room in our hearts to receive Him? If we are full of regret and harboring ill will against another, if we are nursing old wounds and posing with past mistakes then posting them, how will we embrace the gift of God? Are we ready to let go of the old - to pour it out so that we can be filled with fresh anointing? Will we choose to lay down our lives before the King of all kings? One can hope...
Prayer:
Father,
Thank You for Your promises of yes and amen! Thank You for fulfilling all of them with Christ. Give us eyes to see and to understand how to prepare our hearts to receive all that You would have us to do to bring others into Your kingdom. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on Earth as it is in heaven. In Jesus' Name we pray. Amen
