NUGGETS FROM THE WORD
All it takes is a desire to be willing, and our Heavenly Father will help us to be willing to do His will.
“For God is working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases him.” (Philippians 2:13 NLT)
“being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ;”
(Philippians 1:6 NKJV)
“If you are willing and obedient, You shall eat the good of the land;” (Isaiah 1:19 NKJV)

NUGGETS FROM THE WORD
The Lord is looking for a people who will bend for Him. If He says go north, they go north. If He says go west, west they go. If He tells them to start getting up at 5:00 to pray, it's a done deal. They're quick to obey.
”Delight yourself also in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart.“ (Psalm 37:4 NKJV)
The word "delight" means to be pliable--bending and moving easily and gracefully, flexible.

NUGGETS FROM THE WORD
Once upon a time, there was a man in despair. His enemies were closing in on Him. Fear was trying to overtake him. Despite all this, he kept a praise in his mouth (Psalm 34:1). And then he cried out to the Father of lights, the One who is, who was and who is to come, his Deliverer, his Fortress, his Defense, his Savior, his Very Present Help in the time of trouble, none other than the God of glory, the Lord God Almighty. The Lord heard his cry and delivered him out of all his troubles (Psalm 34:17 NKJV). Our God is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Hebrews 13:8 NKJV). His ears are open to our cries, and He will deliver us out of all our troubles. “For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to Him...” (2 Chronicles 16:9 NKJV).
I encourage each of us today to put our total trust in God, the Savior of the world. Let us also keep praises unto God in our mouths and keep our eyes fixed on Him. "While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal: but the things which are not seen are eternal" (2 Corinthians 4:18 KJV).
God bless you all.
