Welcome to Daily Moments with God, an online sanctuary written by Christian author R. Lynn Moore. This space is a dedicated resource for your everyday walk with Jesus. Through daily devotionals, scriptural studies, and deep reflections, this blog aims to build, edify, and exhort believers. Our mission is to help you silence the noise of the world, stay rooted in faith, and trust God's sovereign hand through life's unexpected turns.
Why do you think it's over? Why do you think this is the end of the story? Understand that God has a plan and His plan is to prosper you and for you to be in good health. His plan doesn't stop here. His plan started at Calvary and the blood sacrifice is still moving and manifesting today. Stop trying to predetermine your outcome. Your outcome is in Him. Your outcome is based on His word, His power, and His presence. You just get to partake of the outcome that He has already prepared for you.
When you look around and see what you see .... make sure you see God in the midst of it. Make sure you understand that He is all powerful and He is all knowing. Make sure you realize that you have been brought with a price and that price was the blood of Jesus.
So don't think it's over. Don't think that you have lived out the entire story of your life to completion. Understand the best is yet to come. Amen.
Do you really understand what has been done for you? The sacrifice that has been made for you? The blood that was shed for you? The value that has been placed on you?
So often we live out life thinking less of ourselves. Downing our own selves and not realizing that we are unique creation of our Father, our Daddy ..... our King. No we are not to be high minded ... nor should we be prideful. However, we are to know who we are in Him. We are to be confident in who we are IN HIM. Our lives are to be a resemblance of who He is. A reflection of His love. A personification of our Father, our God, and our King.
So don't think less of yourself. Don't see yourself as less than what God has created you to be. Don't allow the enemy to lessen your value. The highest price was paid for your redemption. The greatest sacrifice that has ever been made was made just for you. Be confident in who you are. Stop speaking words of doubt over your own life. Stop confessing that you are less than. Know who you are and walk in the reality of what God has said about you. YOU are a child of the King. YOU are a vessel of love and a product of redemption. YOU are unique and YOU are divine. There is nothing that anyone can say about you that can lessen the investment that God has already made for your life.
Are you willing to share it all with God? Are you willing to share your victories and your defeats? Are you willing to the times you overcome as well as the times you fail? For some reason we only let God in when we are going through. It is at that time when we ask Him in and ask Him for help. Let's step beyond that. Let get to a place where we invite God into everything that concerns our lives. Let Him share the good and the bad. If you let Him share the good and the bad .... there will be no doubt in your mind about whether or not He is there. You will know without any doubt that He will never leave you nor forsake you. You will know without any doubt that He is smiling with you and carrying you when things don't seem to be going right.
Allow God's presence to consume you. His power to overtake you and His love to flow to you and through you. Amen.....
To be classified means to be categorized. Understand that God has defined you. He has classified you according to His standards and His standard is the based on the blood of Jesus. When God sees you .... He sees the blood. When God hears you .... He hears the blood. You are not classified based on your own standards or the standards of man. You are classified solely and totally on the blood of Jesus. Your category and classification is "redeemed righteous". Understand what it means to be redeemed. Understand what it means to be deemed righteous. Understand that it is not based on your today or your yesterday. It is totally and solely based on the sacrifice of Christ.
So today walk in what God has classified you to be. Walk in the knowledge and the power of the Father. Walk faithful. Walk holy. Walk true. Don't allow others to define you. Don't accept the classification of those who know not your father. Understand that you have been redeemed. The voice of the blood of Jesus cries out on your behalf. The power of the blood is working in you and for you. You have been consecrated and set apart for the Master's use. A vessel to be used for His glory. That is who you are. Anything that comes against the knowledge of who God says you are .... don't accept.
Joel 3:14 reads, "Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the Lord is near in the valley of decision". Decisions are something we make on an every day basis. We decide whether we will go to work in the morning or whether we will stay home. We must realize the power behind a God driven decision. When God tells us what to do and we follow .... there is more power behind that than when we decide on our own what we want to do.
Know that God will not lead you down a road without providing you with what you need to travel it. In Psalms 37:25, David says " I have been young and I have been old, but I have never seen the righteous forsaken or his seed left begging for bread". When you make a God driven decision there is peace. We all have decisions we need to make but the question is are we allowing the Creator of the universe to help us make those decisions or are we making them on our own? Realize the power and force behind a God driven decision!
Are you hoarding the world? To hoard means to accumulate, hide, and store away things and guard them carefully ..... So my questions is .... are you storing up your hurts, your pains, your disappointments, and your plans instead of letting it all go? How much are you willing to give? How much are you willing to let go of? Are you willing to give it all to please God? Are you willing to let go of your plan for God? Or is it just about you? What you want and what you desire?
God gave it all. He gave His best for you? If you stop and look at everything that you are holding on to ...... is it even your best? The answer would have to be no. The best thing you have in your life is God's power that is working in you and for you? Beyond that .... we have to learn how to release and let go. We get so busy holding on to stuff that we even hold on to the hurt and pain of our past. We have to get to a place where release is automatic. Where we weigh everything in our lives against the word of God. Where we ask ourselves whether the thought or the action that we are trying to maintain is part of the plan and the purpose that God has for our lives.
Learn how to let go of the stuff and hold on to God's plan. Learn how to let go of the pain and hold on to God's love. Learn how to let go of the worry and hold on to God's hope. We've been holding on to the wrong things. It's time to let it all go and to only hold on to what is necessary. The one necessity we have in life is God. For it is through Him that we live, we breathe, and we have our being. Amen......
Are you letting the life and the light of God shine through you? What is it that people see when they encounter you? Do they see God? His goodness, His grace, His mercy working through you. Do they feel His love flowing through you? What is the impact that you are making on the lives around you?
Understand that your life is a reflection. It is always reflecting something. Is it reflecting your trial or your struggle? Or is it reflecting God's goodness and His grace? Your life is His light ... but the reflection is totally up to you. It is based on what you allow to dominate your life. God should always be the dominant factor. Dominant means the most important, powerful, and influential. That is what God should be. He should be the most important .... the most powerful .... and the most influential part of your life.
Now my question to you is .... what is the dominant factor operating in your life. Is it your situation or God's word?
