Here is the revelation that is shaping my life today – you can’t silence good news. This news is thousands of years old and is still celebrated worldwide. I think this shows how desperate our need is for rescue. You can’t do this life alone!

Luke 2:10-12 TPT
[10] But the angel reassured them, saying, “Don’t be afraid. For I have come to bring you good news, the most joyous news the world has ever heard! And it is for everyone everywhere! [11-12] For today in Bethlehem a rescuer was born for you. He is the Lord Yahweh, the Messiah.“

Here is the revelation that is shaping my life today – the grief of the loss of love can never be removed from the path of life, but hope can ensure I can walk the road.
1 Thessalonians 4:13-14 TPT
[13] Beloved brothers and sisters, we want you to be quite certain about the truth concerning those who have passed away, so that you won’t be overwhelmed with grief like many others who have no hope. [14] For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, we also believe that God will bring with Jesus those who died while believing in him.

This is the revelation that is shaping my life today – it’s my expectations that often let me down, and then I look to blame and why, and in so doing I can miss the beauty that is present there for me.
1 Thessalonians 3:4 TPT
[4] In fact, when we were with you we forewarned you: “Suffering and persecution is coming.” And so it has happened, as you well know.

Here is the revelation that is shaping my life today – if I allow my eyes to see only today I will live only shaped by this day, but if I raise my gaze I will see the promise of God in my future and it will fuel hope and endurance for these days.

James 5:7-8 TPT

[7] Meanwhile, brothers and sisters, we must be patient and filled with expectation as we wait for the appearing of the Lord. Think about the farmer who has to patiently wait for the earth’s harvest as it ripens because of the early and latter rains. [8] So you also keep your hopes high and be patient, for the presence of the Lord is drawing closer.

Here is the revelation that is shaping my life today – love is all God wants for me and from me.

“For we reach the goal of fulfilling all the commandments when we love others deeply with a pure heart, a clean conscience, and sincere faith.”

I know what it means to lack, and I know what it means to experience overwhelming abundance. For I’m trained in the secret of overcoming all things, whether in fullness or in hunger. And I find that the strength of Christ’s explosive power infuses me to conquer every difficulty.
