Payday Is On Its Way
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
“So do not throw away this confident trust in the Lord. Remember the great reward it brings you!”
(Hebrews 10:35, NLT)
TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria
What are you believing God for today? Promotion? Healing? Stronger relationships? Freedom from addiction? God has promised all these things to you in His Word. He wants you to live in blessing and wholeness all the days of your life. But in order to experience His promises, we have to do our part. We have to keep believing and trusting in Him. That’s what today’s verse is saying: if we will stay in faith, if we will keep believing, keep hoping, keep doing the right thing, God promises there will be a reward. I like how one translation puts it, “Don’t get discouraged. Payday is coming!”
When you’re tempted to get down, when things aren’t going your way just say to yourself, “This may be hard. It may be taking a long time. But I know God is a faithful God. I’m going to keep believing because my reward is coming.” Friend, as you trust Him and stand in faith, as you boldly declare His promises, you are positioning yourself to receive His blessing. No matter what your circumstances look like, remember payday is on its way—and you will experience the blessing He’s promised all the days of your life!
A PRAYER FOR TODAY
“Father in heaven, thank You for Your good and precious promises. I choose to trust that my reward is coming. I choose to follow Your commands because they lead to blessing and life. Give me a heart that is fixed on You and fill me with Your peace. I patiently wait on You. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.”
