The Daily Invitation
Every day we have an opportunity to discover more about God and respond to his invitation to live in love and experience freedom. The Daily Invitation outlines the many ways Scripture calls us to know and follow God. By reflecting on these promises, believers are called to receive God’s give of grace, seek him earnestly, and surrender their lives.

Meditate On God’s Greatness
One day, we can wake up and realize that we bought into a bigger lie than we thought. Discontentment led to complaining, which stirred up hopelessness. Hopelessness turned to anger and resentment, and soon, a root of bitterness took hold of our hearts. What can we do to break such a cycle?
Live For Christ
As you go through your day, remember that everything you do can be filled and sustained by the grace of God. Let your living be for Christ, and fearlessly look to eternity with him.
Examine Your Heart
Verses like Psalm 59:17 are a mirror for our hearts. Is God your strength? Are praises flowing to the God who shows you steadfast love? Or do you have to do some rearranging of your heart? How drastically do you need to reorient yourself to be in agreement with this verse? It’s worth pondering.
The God That Lifts Us Up
All of these things can be addressed in the flesh, and if we are honest, they don’t necessarily require the power of God to move in our lives. We could see God move in these areas, but it is much easier to push God’s help away and keep pursuing our own strategies for deliverance.
Called To Be Holy
We get to live like heaven. Glory to glory. Even in our suffering, we see the light of Christ; and the Spirit works it for our benefit, shaping us to be more and more like Jesus.
Abide In My Love
God has invited us to know him through encounters with his love. Sometimes this looks like revelation and understanding of his word. Other times it seems like renewed strength to persist in the task before us. It could be a renewal of the heart, or it might be a healing of the soul. All these things matter; abiding in God includes every part of our being.
Love Through Deliverance
Today is an invitation to put your trust in God beyond a feeling and recognize that God’s love is expressed to you in his deliverance. Could it be that God wants to set you free where you are asking for comfort? Where you are asking for peace, does God seek to provide?
Freed For Freedom
God both frees us and enlists us in his army of freedom fighters. He didn’t free you so you could get off the hook. He freed you for an eternal purpose of freedom. Christ takes us out of the prison cell and hands us a job description that reads, “Live in my freedom.”
Do You See God?
Can you see today that your inheritance is light? Your inheritance is to see God, and to see God is to be known by God.
Worth Pressing After
He is worth every effort we could give and more. What is unique about God is that he doesn’t expect us to strive our way into the kingdom. His acceptance of us is not based on what we deserve but on what he has done.
The Faithful God
An excellent practice of abiding is allowing the Bible to be a mirror to our souls. These words themselves have been passed down through generations so that we can read them today in our own language and receive the truth of God.
Fully In His Presence
Every part of our life that we call “good” apart from God is a missed opportunity to live in his presence.
Alive Today
The Monday after Easter is no less powerful than Easter itself because the story of resurrection never ends. Would you respond to the invitation to living hope by remembering you have access to life itself?
Access To Freedom
As we consider the scope of God’s grace, meditating on his steadfast love, we have the opportunity to realize that we are among those who were brought into salvation through God’s grace.
A True Heart
I invite you to examine your heart. Do you have the confidence to enter boldly into the holy places and be transformed into the likeness of God? Or are you clinging to routines and ideologies that can’t save your soul?
Hosea 6:3 | Knowing God
This is your invitation. Abiding has many expressions, but today it means pressing on to know God. Don’t let the enemy tempt you away from seeking God by telling you that you don’t need more of God. Don’t substitute a genuine relationship with God for religion.
Romans 9:25 | Called Beloved
Freedom is found when we turn to God and receive his gift of grace. There is nothing more to the gospel story than a God who steps into our darkness to offer us undeserved freedom.
Luke 18:17 | Entering The Kingdom
If a child dancing on the street corner already has everything they need to enter God’s kingdom, why do we think we need to grow up and strive toward acceptance? Kids get to enter the kingdom freely because, in the kingdom of God, the Father supplies everything we need, freedom is fully available in the Spirit, and restoration is found in the name of Jesus. How odd is it to try to earn our way into an all-expenses-paid invitation?
