Jesus Calling and Jesus Today devotional

“Jesus Today” by Sarah Young
Hope for What you DO NOT SEE; EAGERLY wait for it with perseverance. Among the five senses, sight is often the one that people value the most. I created the world gloriously beautiful, and I want you to appreciate beauty when you see it. However, even more beneficial than sight is hope, which is itself a kind of vision. It enables you to see—through the eyes of your heart—things that are NOTH YET. The most stunning example of this is the hope of heaven. Your ultimate destiny is to share in MY GLORY! This is MY PROMISE to you, secured through MY FINISHED WORK on the CROSS and MY RESURRECTION. Practice hoping for things you do not see—both for this life and the next. Ask Me to guide you into hopes and dreams that are in line with My will. Train the eyes of your heart to “see” these blessings, while praying for My will to be done fully and ONLY. Discipine yourself to wait eagerly—with your focus on ME and the longed for outcome. Remain hopeful and expectant as you waith WITH PERSEVERANCE.

If we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with perseverance- Romans 8:25

The glory which You gave Me I have given them, that they may be one just as WE are one.- John 17:22

Now faith is the assurance (the confirmation, the title deed) of the things (we) hope for, being the proof of things (we) do not see and the conviction of their reality. (Faith perceiving as real fact what is not revealed to the senses) –Hebrews 11:1


“Jesus Calling”- by Sarah Young
I AM YOUR STRENGTH AND SHIELD. I plan out each day and have it ready for you, long before you arise from bed. I also provide the strength you need each step of the way, Instead of assessing your energy level and wondering about what’s on the road ahead, concentrate on staying in touch with Me, My Power flows freely into you through our open communication. Refuse to waste energy worrying, and you will have strength to spare.
Whenever you start to feel afraid, remember that I am YOUR SHIELD, but unlike inanimate armor, I AM ALWAYS alert and active. My Presence watches over you continually, protecting you from both known and unknown dangers. Entrust yourself to My watchcare, which is the best security system available. I am with you and will watch over you WHEREVER YOU GO.

The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in Him, and He helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song, I PRAISE HIM- Psalm 28:7

When I am afraid, I put my trust in you. In God, whose word I praise—in God I trust and am not afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?- Psalm 56:3-4

Therefore, do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. – Matthew 6:34

I am with you and will watch over you wherever you go, and I will bring you back to this land. I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you- Genesis 28:15
