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.

Living Intercession
Perhaps if we close off from the world and live in a bubble, we could hide from the evil of the world around us (although there’s no telling what iniquity might be lurking within us out of our sight). Yet John seems to show a picture of victory that is unique to the believer. Faith in Jesus brings authority over the schemes of the enemy.
Grace In Weakness
I’ve never seen more acceleration in my spiritual journey than when God leads me through hardships. I’ve never experienced more fruit and growth in my faith than when God puts me in situations of vulnerability, and the pressure pushes me to trust him more than ever before.
You Are In His Hands
There will be times in your life of great joy and fulfillment, and there will be times of deep need. There will be days when you feel like the Lord is closer than a breath, and there will be days when you can barely believe you will hear his voice again. Yet we trust in him because we put our hope in the God who holds all our times in his hands.
Spirit of Wisdom
Proverbs 2:6 NIV says, “For the Lord gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding.”
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.
Great Mercy For The Lowly
We stand far away and try to fix our mistakes on our own first. This will always be a futile pursuit. For every place that we try to patch up on our own, we are only limiting the flow of God’s endless grace to bring the healing we need.
Remember God’s Wonders
We are no different than the people of Israel. We have the word of God, the testimony of the saints, and above all, the empowering and filling presence of the Holy Spirit within us. So why do we still falter? Why do we still forget the works and wonders of the Lord?
Make Room For The Holy Spirit
Can you believe that the path to abiding is just turning, following, and calling on the name of the Lord? I’m not trying to sound reductive in light of the glorious depths of what it means to know God. Yet I have so often found my inability to walk in the spirit just because I haven’t stopped long enough to call out to God in humility.
Escaping Rollercoaster Christianity
The fruit God desires to produce in us is so abundant that we can’t possibly keep track of it. When we live in the presence of God, saturated in his Word, true spiritual growth occurs. God’s kingdom and truth begin to swell up within us from the inside out. Instead of obsessively trying to check everything off our spiritual list, we discover freedom in Christ like never before.
You Are God’s Temple
Our spiritual reality is no less actual than our physical, mental, or emotional one. I Corinthians 3:16 reminds us that the Spirit of God is not some outer place we must go to and try to grasp. The Spirit dwells within us. Our bodies are not just infrequent hosts of God’s presence. We are temples—distinctively holy dwelling places for the divine.
God Gives The Growth
God uses willing vessels to build his kingdom, but without the power of God and his grace supplied to us, there will be no growth. Only in the vine of Christ can we receive nourishment to flourish the way God desires.
God Is Working In You
So, I invite you once again to pause and remember that it is God in you working to bring about the work he desires. He already has a vision and a plan for your life that brings you greater freedom, love, and power than you could imagine.
All Grace, All Things, All Times
God doesn’t invite us to a salvation moment of grace and then leave us to a lifestyle of striving. Rather, the gift of salvation is our commencement into a lifestyle of grace.
I Sought The Lord
Seek him in your fears and let your life be the Psalm 34:4 testimony: “I sought the Lord, and he answered me and delivered me from all my fears.”
Don’t Forget
God’s activity in our lives to save and redeem us is the only way we really have the freedom to worship him in the first place! His redemptive, saving, and healing work in our lives brings us to a place of wholeness where we can begin giving back praise.
Things Above
Looking upward in prayer is a powerful posture. We find ourselves looking away from the earthy and temporal into the heavenly and eternal. Looking up reminds us that our hope comes from God and not from our strength or wisdom. We are held in his hand, safe under his careful watch, and empowered by his comforting Spirit.
The Power of Agreement
Prayer becomes exponentially more powerful when we gather together and pray in agreement. Intercession can be a personal mission, but clearly, God designed the ministry of prayer to happen in communion.
True Spiritual Power
Weakness and humility are the keys to spiritual greatness. Not wisdom, knowledge, talent, accomplishments, wealth, appearances, or great theology. Weakness is the only way we can walk under the power of God.
Hold Fast To God
The whole point of the journey of holiness is to lay down that which is perishing to take on that which is eternal. This only happens when we run to God, trusting fully in his grace to forgive, heal, and restore us.
Come To God
Come before him today with your prayers for help. Set your requests before his throne daily. In the family of God, the burdens of the children are the business of the Father.
