Today’s Scripture 

“Here are kingdom revelations, words to live by, and words of wisdom given to empower you to reign in life, written as proverbs by Israel’s King Solomon, David’s son. Within these sayings will be found the revelation of wisdom and the impartation of spiritual understanding. Use them as keys to unlock the treasures of true knowledge. Those who cling to these words will receive discipline to demonstrate wisdom in every relationship and to choose what is right and just and fair. These proverbs will give you great skill to teach the immature and make them wise, to give youth the understanding of their design and destiny. For the wise, these proverbs will make you even wiser, and for those with discernment, you will be able to acquire brilliant strategies for leadership.”                

Proverbs 1:1-5

Today’s Thought

Pay attention to the relationships around you, they are constantly revealing a person's character… 

Relationships are never destroyed because of disagreement… They are proof-tested only at that very moment… The one who cannot find agreement has already revealed themselves as the unforgiving.

Today’s Confession 

Lord, the relationships you have placed in my life with godly people are so valuable to me… These relationships are strong and true, where we can agree to disagree and it doesn’t affect our friendship… Sometimes a situation will develop when a person’s character is unforgiving… When that happens I thank you for discernment and allowing me to see their character. Help me to forgive and walk in love while also being cautious to allow further access into my life.
