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.
Have you started to realize and recognize the faithfulness of God in your life? His love for you? His plan for you? Understand today ... God loves you so much that He gave His all for you. So whoever has caused you to feel less than in life ... was wrong. Your value is far above anything else in this earth to God. Can't you see ... He will allow everything else to be washed away and destroyed ... yet He sacrificed for you. He put His seal of approval on you. He covers, shields, and protects you.
Start recognizing who you are to God. Start understanding your true worth. Stop demeaning yourself and know that God has paid a great price for you. You are chosen.... Hand selected by the Father and there is nothing that can change that. The only way that can change is if YOU choose not to accept what He has done for you. How sad it would be to be purchased and delivered ... yet stay in the same place and be used by your previous owner and never know the beauty that the new owner has prepared for you.
Are you letting God be God? Are you allowing Him to move and to manifest in your life or are your actions hindering His movement? Are you being led by God and being strengthened by God or are you seeking alternatives to His direction? Understand today ... God wants to lead you. He wants to strengthen you and He wants to give you direction. God wants to move and manifest for you, in you, and through you. But the question is ... are you giving Him full reign in your lives? Or are you hindering Him based on your desire to be in control?
It's time to let God be God. It's time to let Him move, manifest, and be your first responder. A first responder is someone who responds first in a critical situation. God wants Him and His word to be the response to your situations and your circumstances. Are you willing to step out of the way and let God be God? Are you willing to allow His word to be the only answer to your situation? Are you willing to let God manifest for you and respond through you? By allowing God to respond for you ... it eliminates the stress of trying to figure it all out.
Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid.Neither do men light a candle and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick, and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. (Matthew 5:13-15) If we as Christians are the light of the world, how much light are we projecting? Are we using every opportunity to share our light to those who are in the dark? Think about how in the book of Genesis, the world was dark and God said "Let there be light, and there was light". This should be the same in our lives. When we encounter those that are in the dark, we should be sharing our light. You may be the only light someone gets that day. Imagine going a whole day in the dark? Many people do. They get so caught up in the darkness of this world that their eyes adjust and before they know it they become comfortable there and are able to see more, and more. However, when the lights come back on the are awakened to the fact that everything is much clearer to see in the light. We need to make sure we are letting our light be seen. Stay set apart and let God's light and His Word project through your life. Illuminate, and radiate today, do not hide your light while your at work, or at the store because that may be the very place someone needs to see it.
What is it that you are delighting in today? The word delight means to have great pleasure. What is it that you are finding great pleasure in today? Is it God? Is it His word? Is it His plan? Or is it something totally unrelated to Him, His word, and His plan. The Bible says that God has pleasure in the prosperity of His people. Understand prosperity if more than financial. God wants us to have "whole life" prosperity. Where there is nothing lacking, nothing missing, and nothing broken. Where our bodies are healed ... our needs are met ... we walk in peace ... and we operate fully and totally in His power.
Now that you understand that God finds pleasure in your life being whole. Are you willing to allow Him to be the source of your pleasure. The source of your joy. The source of your peace. The source of your healing. We have to understand ... if we allow Him to be the source of our pleasure ... not only will we be pleased ... but He will too because we will be walking in the fullness of His prosperity. We will be walking in "whole life" prosperity where there is nothing lacking, missing, or broken in our lives.
Are you being bold for God? How are people interpreting your walk? Can they tell when they encounter you ... who you serve? Do they realize that you are Christian by the way you walk and you talk? Or are you being and incognito Christian? One who hides out until you need God to do something in your life.
It's time to step out and be who God created you to be. It's time to be bold for Him, in Him, and through Him. It's time for you to let the world know exactly who you are and whose you are. It's time to stop hiding in the shadows of your pain and to start participating in the plan that God has for you. It's time to let the world know that you know that God is real. It's time to shine bright for God. Are you ready to let His light be seen through your life?
What are you allowing to challenge your knowledge and perception of who God is? Do you not understand that the enemy's tactics have not changed. His sole purpose is to cause you to not believe. To get you to question who God is and what God is doing. Are you allowing the outcome of the choices that you and others make to cause you to see God differently?
We have to begin to understand the power of free will. When we have free will ... we have the ability to make our own decisions. Unfortunately we don't always consider the impact of our decisions on others. It is only when our decisions impact the mass that we truly see the tragedy behind bad choices. It is time we understand the importance of making the right choices. We have to understand that there is a cause and affect behind everything we do. Never think that your decisions don't carry within them consequences. There is a consequence to every choice you make. So choose wisely.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.2 He was with God in the beginning.3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.4 In him was life,and that life was the light of all mankind.5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. (John 1:1-5) If the Word was with God than the Word should be with and in us as well. It is through the Word, and His "words" that God created the Earth and it is through our dependency on God's Word and the words that come out of our mouth that creates our world. If we live a life dependent on ourselves or others, then we create a world where we will never be able to function according to His Word. However, if we live dependent on the Word of God, our words will project that word and our life will fall in line with it. This is why you should speak the Word over your life! In the good times and bad, because as long as you are speaking God's Word all the situations your going through must line up with him. Learn scriptures about healing, and speak them over yourself and others. Learn scriptures about financial breakthrough and speak it over your finances! Your life should be dependent on God's Word, and your words should line up with his Word. Everything that comes out of your mouth has power so watch what you say. Do not say things that are meaningless, but meaningful. God desires for His Word to be used in your life, in all situations and in all circumstances. Remember His Word through the good and bad.
