Join us as we journey through the attributes of God from A-Z. Each day there will be a characteristic of God highlighted along with a scripture, prayer prompt, and additional resource for you to use. You can also follow along on our social media accounts.
DAY 1: ABBA FATHER
“For you did not receive the spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption as sons, by whom we cry, “Abba! Father!” Romans 8:15(ESV)
*PROMPT: Spend some time reflecting on the truth that you have Abba God as your eternal Father. As you remind yourself of who God is, receive the fact that He is available to be those things for YOU. Listen to the song below and receive God’s love and delight towards you!
LISTEN to “Sons and Daughters” by Iron Bell Music and let God speak to you about His love.
DAY 2: BETTER THAN GOD
“My thoughts are nothing like your thoughts,” says the Lord. And my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine. For just as the heavens are higher than the earth, so my ways are higher than your ways and my thoughts higher than your thoughts.” Isaiah 55:8-9 (NLT)
*PROMPT: God is the God of the process. Often times our circumstances and path look nothing like what He’s promised us. Just like Joseph our lives can actually look like the opposite of where we thought God was taking us. But God is building character and trust in the process and as we lean on Him He is working out His better than plan.
Today, ask and reflect what the better than plan for your life is from a Better Than God.
