Today's Scripture
Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart. But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes. And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
2 Timothy 2:22-26

Today's Thought
Stay out of strife at all costs, no matter what’s happening… Remembering it’s the devil’s snare and a trap. Once you open the door of strife, the enemy can come in at his own will. Slam it shut and don’t open it again.

Today's Confession
Father, I repent for the times that I have opened the door to the enemy through strife. Thank you for your grace as I work on having peace with those around me. I close the door to the enemy through my willingness to abandon strife today! Thank you, Lord!
