As far as the east is from the west, so far has He has removed our transgressions from us. Psalms 103:12
The bible reminds me in Romans 3:23 that all have sinned and fall short of God’s glory. Through Jesus Christ, God has removed my wrongdoings from me. From the east to the west suggests, that my sins were very excessive.
Being aware of all the ways I have failed you O Lord, can sometimes cause me to forget the opportunity you’ve granted me to be receptive of the love that you still have for me through grace.

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 6:23
In the book of Romans chapters 6 verse 23, Paul stresses the free gift of eternal life. I can never do enough to earn your grace and forgiveness God. No one measures up to your holiness and perfection. Jesus paid the price and I reaped the gift. I am liberated from the impossibility of seeking to earn your forgiveness through works.

David was in a cave when he wrote this Psalm. Though he was in exile, he knew that the Lord would save him and protect him from harm. God will do the same for me.
Heavenly father when I am fearful, distressed, mourning or afraid, I know that you are my help. Your Holy Spirit is in me and beside me. For this I give thanks, In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.

He will bless me and add no sorrow
The blessing of the Lord makes one rich, And He adds no sorrow with it. Proverbs 10:22
In order for me to receive and walk in my God’s blessings, I must walk in faith. I don’t want to miss the blessings you have for my life because of the lack of faith. I believe that prosperity is your will for my life. I must believe to receive from you.

Paul is declaring in Galatians 2:20 a fundamental Christian truth. Those who belong to Christ have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. Though I continue to live in the flesh my life is now directed by faith, not by my sinful flesh. The Holy Spirit’s sanctification starts to work progressively, making me holy while renewing me in the image of God.
Lord, in Christ I’m made new. Thank you heavenly father that I can look beyond my past straight into the eyes of our loving Savior. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.
DAY 40
He will not allow me to be tempted by more than I can handle
No temptation has overtaken you except such as common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make a way of escape, that you may be able to bear it. 1 Corinthians 10:13
I face temptation daily. God, you know how much or little I can handle, and you do not allow me to experience more than I can handle. When I am facing a temptation that seems insurmountable, I must remember that you give me strength to get through it. Even if I fail and give into a temptation, you give me a way back to a right relationship with you through repentance.
Thank you, Father, for your faithfulness. I have weaknesses and temptations that I struggle with. As I surrender to your perfect will, help me to choose the way of escape that you have provided me. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.

God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in the time of trouble. Psalms 46:1
God, your miraculous deliverance of your people in the bible is amazing. The God you were then, is the God you are even now.
My faith is always being subjected to storms and dilemmas. Where can I find security?
There is a fundamental basis for my faith. The God who made me and everything in the universe. In all circumstances, no matter how terrible or frightening, my unchanging God is my refuge and strength.
Heavenly Father, thank you for being my refuge and strength and equipping me with your word. I pray, to stand fast and trust You in everything. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.
DAY 42
He has given me power in the tongue
Death and life is in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit. Proverbs 18:21
I must be careful of the words that I allow to come out of my mouth. This proverb reminds me that words are powerful. Verbal attacks or slander can’t break bones, however words can create positive or negative realities. They can build up, or tear down.
This is why I must speak the word of God out of my mouth concerning every circumstance in my life. I decide what I will speak, because it is me who will experience the details of the words I speak out of my mouth.
Father God, let my words and deeds reflect your love and your will. Show me how to speak your Word over myself and others. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.
WEEK 7
DAY 43
He has given me a spirit of power, love and a sound mind
For God has not given you a spirit of fear, but of power love and a sound mind. 2 Timothy 1:7
In a world full of challenges, trials and uncertainty, this scripture reminds me that God has given me a powerful spirit. I will walk in boldness which denotes a humble confidence, coupled with the power to love, and self-control when I can’t control the things around me.
Lord, I will trust in you. I know you will provide. I will not fear or faint. I don’t have to worry when I have blessed assurance in you. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.
DAY 44
He has given me a specific functionality in the body
For as we have many members in one body, but not all members have the same function. Romans 12:4
Paul has presented the church in this scripture as the human body. A body has more than one member. It has numerous members. Differing members of the local church have different gifts, each gift has its special purpose for the church. The issue here is where the individual fits into the corporate family of God. Each individual has his own gifts to contribute to the body.
Dear Father, thank you for making me a part of something that is living, powerful, and everlasting. Thank you for giving me special gifts and abilities to use in the Body of Christ. Help me to find and use my gift for your glory. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.
DAY 45
He has great plans for me
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not evil, to give you a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:11
God knows all and has authority over everything that was, is, and is to come. He is not surprised by anything. He has made a plan for me and despite my shortcomings, God declares that He still has good things in store for me because his love is unconditional.
God’s plan cannot be stopped. It always include what’s best for me as a result, I continually expect to experience all that God has for my life.
Thank you, Lord, for the plans you have for me. Enlarge my vision of you and enable me to trust your word of truth through all the circumstances that life will bring. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.
DAY 46
He delights in my way
The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord, and he delights in his way. Psalms 37:23
God gives me both provision and protection, which are needed when I am dealing with the bitter circumstances of life. When I give God what he orders, he is providing and protecting me as a result of my obedience.
My steps are ordered, fixed, and secured by my Father in heaven through Christ Jesus. Nothing on earth below or heavens above can cause the steps of those that have been made righteous through Jesus Christ to stray so far or to fall so severely, that God in His grace will not reach down and pick them up.
Thank you Father, that my steps are ordered by you, that you take delight in establishing the way I should go, and are able to keep me from falling. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.
DAY 47
He will turn evil to good
But as far as you, you meant evil against me; God meant it for good, in order to bring it about as it is this day, to save many people alive. Genesis 50:20
It was probably jealousy that caused Joseph’s brothers to treat him so cruelly, throwing him into a pit and finally selling him into slavery, causing his father such deep sorrow and pain. But God in His infinite wisdom turned such a heinous crime into an amazing story where God was glorified in the end.
When evil and distressing situations happen in my live, I have choices: I can wallow in self-pity, murmur against God for my misfortune, and stay stuck in the state of bitterness and anger. I choose by faith, to rest in the promises of God, knowing that no matter what happens in this life, God will bring good out of evil. He will bring life out of death. He will bring joy out of sorrow.
Lord God, I thank you for your good intentions toward me and the evil that is or will be planned against me. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.
DAY 48
He is my help
I will look to the hills from whence comes my help. My help comes from the Lord who made the heavens and the earth. Psalms 121:1-2
It’s good to have a support system in place, but I need to look further than that. Because history and experience has taught me that no safety plan, no insurance policy, no security system can keep me absolutely safe in this life.
That’s why I need to look to God for help. God helps those who seek His help. Lord I lift up my eyes to the hills, seeking you, knowing that you will supply all my needs, for I belong to you, my maker, and no evil power or principality can separate me from your love. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.
DAY 49
He works all things for my good
And we know all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. Romans 8:28
God ordained His redemptive plan and purpose in the eternal realm of heaven before the foundation of the world. His plan is a good plan, a perfect plan, a plan which will come to full fruition when Christ returns. A plan where God is working all things together for his own glory and for the eternal good of all who love and trust Him as Saviour and Lord.
This reassuring scripture reminds me that I am free of God’s judgement and condemnation because I am in Christ and released from the curse of the law, slavery to sin, and Satan’s accusations.
Heavenly Father, thank you for causing all things to work together to achieve your great redemptive plan for my life. In Jesus name I pray Amen.
WEEK 8
DAY 50
He is pleased by my faith
Without faith it is impossible to please Him, because he who comes to God must first believe He is, and He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. Hebrews 11:6
Having faith in the Lord Jesus is the only way I can have a relationship with the God who created the heavens and earth. It is through the Lord Jesus Christ that God saved me from my sins. When Jesus died on the cross for my sins, He did it all for me. God knew that I couldn’t save myself from sin. There is no amount of good works or spiritual rituals that I can exude to be accepted by God.
Oh God, make me a person of faith who pleases you, who believe that you exist, and who will experience the reward in seeking you, in Jesus name I pray, Amen.
DAY 51
His strength is made perfect in my weakness
And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore, most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 2 Corinthians 12:9
The awesome power of God is made perfect, in weakness. The places where I’m most feeble, are the best platform for the Lord to show His perfect strength. God can be most clearly seen when I make my boast in the him only. When I stop trying to prove to the world that my strength is adequate enough to handle my obstacles, God will show up and allow his strength to prevail on my behalf.
Heavenly Father, help me to rejoice and recognize that your power is made perfect in my own weakness. Help me to boast all the more gladly in my inabilities so that your great abilities may be manifested in my life, in Jesus name I pray, Amen.
DAY 52
He has great plans for me
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not evil, to give you a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:11
God knows all and has authority over everything that was, is, and is to come. He is not surprised by anything. He has made a plan for me and despite my shortcomings, God declares that He still has good things in store for me because his love is unconditional.
God’s plan cannot be stopped. It always include what’s best for me as a result, I continually expect to experience all that God has for my life.
Thank you, Lord, for the plans you have for me. Enlarge my vision of you and enable me to trust your word of truth through all the circumstances that life will bring. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.
DAY 53
He will direct my path
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not to your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths. Proverbs 3:5-6
I must trust God with all my heart and not depend on my own way of thinking. I must constantly include God in everything I do, as a consequence, I give him the opportunity to keep me on the right path. When I trust in God with all my heart, it means that I leave no room for doubt. I believe what he says because I know he is always right and will never deceive me. God sees the bigger picture and knows what lies ahead. Help me Lord to trust you with all my heart, and lean not to my own understanding, in Jesus name I pray, Amen.
DAY 54
He will not condemned me
There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the spirit. Romans 8:1
Since I have sincerely given my life to Jesus Christ, there is no condemnation directed towards me that comes from God. All that I have ever done, or will do, is covered by Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross.
Since I am a child of God, when I repent of my sins, he promises to forget them as if the sins never occurred. So I choose not to focus on the sins of my past, or feel guilty about them, due to receiving God’s mercy and forgiveness. Lord, thank you for the mercy and grace you freely offer to all those who turn to you, in Jesus name I pray, Amen.
DAY 55
He gives His word to lighten my pathway
Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. Psalm 119:105
The word of God is my navigation and compass in life. It is also my guide, help, deliverance, peace, joy, redemption and my everlasting promise.
The light of God’s word makes things clearer and visible so that I will not trip and fall into the traps and snares of the enemy. As a Christian, I must daily search the word of God to study, believe, and obey it. Heavenly Father, I seek to remain in close fellowship with you. I thank you for leaving your word to lead and guide us, in Jesus name I pray, Amen.
DAY 56
He is my hope
O Lord, you alone are my hope. I’ve trusted you, O Lord, from childhood. Psalms 71:5
God does not forget me. When he made the world, he set in motion his amazing and wonderful providence. He has given me winter and summer, cold and heat, seedtime and harvest, and these things will never cease. He has given me the stars and planets to be my calendar, and the sun and moon to be my clock. I can hope to have so many things in the life, but the greatest hope is found in my Savior Christ, the hope of glory, who is the fulfilment of God’s promise to restore me. It is not hope that denotes wishful thinking, this is a confident hope that is about expectancy, and joy, as God works in me and through me. God is continually shaping me to be more like Christ who I will see face to face one day. Lord, I thank you for being my father and God. You are such an awesome God, and worthy to be praised. Thank you for being my hope and loving me in spite of me, in Jesus name I pray, Amen.
