Chapter One: A Beginning

At a time in my life when I was overwhelmed with circumstances and sickness, a very dear friend of mine explained to me that I had to get up out of my despair and seek God's face--truly seek Him. He encouraged me to read Psalms and Proverbs daily and let these scriptures be my personal pleas and prayers to my Lord and Savior. As I read daily and journaled God's messages to me, I began to find healing and hope like I'd never known before. Concepts of Biblescopes took time to emerge as I began to apply them to my personal life circumstances. Scripture says that those who consult mediums and practice divination to plan their future are detestable to God. See Deuteronomy 18:10-12 (NIV).

Impact of having God's Word applied to your life is dynamically enlightening to such an extent that you are strengthened supernaturally, spiritually, physically and emotionally. Your emotional health will improve exponentially! In Psalms 119:105 (NIV) God provides light for direction and He promises to show us His paths and that ever-present illumination even when we choose to take roads that may lead us to a place of our own self-directed wants and needs.
God does not desert us at any time in our lives. He stays the rudder and waits for us to return to Him.

Journaling Assignment--Start slowly by reading the Psalm that corresponds with today's date. If it is Monday the thirtieth of March 2010, read Psalm 30. Make notes in this book about what God is saying to you about yourself and/or those you love. Reading from a modern day translation helps with understanding personal content of scriptures. I prefer New International Version(NIV). Say a prayer for guidance from the Holy Spirit to teach you.

Here is an example prayer: "Holy Spirit, teach me from your Word today things I need to know to follow your directions and instructions that I might serve you and others. Take from me any preconceived notions about this scripture so that I may receive a fresh word from you today."
In Jesus' name...Amen
