Positive Daily Inspiration – October 28, 2022 – TURN ON THE LIGHT

Positive Daily Inspiration - October 28, 2022 - TURN ON THE LIGHT

“I will put trust in God.”
Hebrews 2:13

Have you ever stumbled through a dark room? I broke my toe that way one time, and then hopped around the dark house in pain, and fell over a table. How simple it would have been to just “turn on the light,” then I could have found my way.

Have you ever traveled down a country road at night that seemed to be barren, deserted, and stark – only to discover that traveling the same road in the light of day brought a tremendous change? In the light of day, the beauty of nature that was on both sides of the road was revealed. As you learn more and more in the light of true understanding, your life is changed for the better. In the light of God, there is no fear, no apprehension, no insecurity. In the light of God there is always an all-encompassing warmth of the promise of the abiding presence.

Whenever you seem to be traveling a path of darkness in your life, TURN ON THE LIGHT! Know that the light of God is always willing to shine for you and in you. As you look to God, you will be guided on a path of light, not darkness.

There is another type of darkness that needs to be illuminated within us; it is the darkness that sometimes can dwell in human mind. Depression and gloom cannot remain in the presence of the light of God. Perhaps it is harder in life to stumble through a dark mind.

Have you felt down or depressed about some situation in your life? Today, you have the opportunity to allow God’s light to flow through you, to bless the situation and all people concerned. God’s light turns on the joy-filled heart. God enables you to look past appearances and place any challenge in the light of proper perspective.

In Psalms 4:7, our Bible states, “Thou hast put more joy in my heart than they have when their grain and wine abound.” This scripture refers to God’s light of the inner joy that is not affected or changed by outer conditions. Every day, God can turn the light on in your mind eliminating darkness and helping you to think clearly.

Jesus urged you, though, to do more with this light. He said in many ways that this light is not just for you, but comes through you to help illumine others.

He told you NOT to hold your light under a bushel, but to be the light of the world.

You become a gift of joy that God gives to a wonderful world. In all that you do, in whatever experience you find yourself, God’s wellspring of joy remains unchanged within you. It is immeasurable, abiding, and ready for you to give expression to it.

Many persons and many things in the world contribute to your joy and happiness, and you give thanks for each one because you will be able to see each one in the light of a new day. You also give thanks for the knowledge of God’s wellspring of joy within you and for your ability to give expression to it.

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

Dear God, I ask that You will infill me with illumination, in prayer I now touch the wisdom from above. I pray for Divine knowledge to change every idea inside of my mind, and uplift me to the light of new thinking. May I wear the countenance of faith, in the joy that I exhibit to all.

In Jesus Christ name … Amen

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION: I go through my day with the ease and joy of Spirit.

POSITIVE DAILY QUOTE: “Fear blinds and binds. Love reveals and empowers.”
Alan Cohen

Positive Daily Inspiration – October 27, 2022 – NO WORRY FOR THE NEXT 24 HOURS

Positive Daily Inspiration - October 27, 2022 - NO WORRY FOR THE NEXT 24 HOURS


“Fear not, for I am with you.”
Genesis 26:24

A new day, of a new week, is before us; we have a spiritual opportunity to practice the presence of God. For the next 24 hours, I invite you and all of our friends at Positive Christianity to eliminate worry from your lives.

To act out the principle of turning prayers over to God, one family took a paper bag, wrote “God” on it, and taped it up high on the back of their kitchen door. As they prayed about matters such as their careers, their role as a father, or mother, their abilities to be a good husband, or wife, they would write down each concern on a piece of paper. There all those pieces of paper would go in the bag. The rule was that if you start worrying about a matter of prayer that you have turned over to God, you have to climb up on a chair and fish it out of the bag. The family said that they did not want to admit how much time they spent sifting through those scraps of paper! But it taught them an important lesson of how useless and unnecessary worry is.

A problem not worth praying about – is not worth worrying about!

Worry is like a rocking chair: It gives you something to do, but it does not get you anywhere.

A Swedish proverb says, “Worry often gives a small thing a big shadow.”

Dr. Paul Brandwein, at the George Washington high school in New York City, used a simple yet dramatic demonstration to point out to his students how unproductive worry is. When the students came into class, he had a bottle of milk perched on a laboratory desk. After they were seated and wondering what experiment the milk was for, the doctor would startle the students by smashing the bottle of milk into the sink and exclaiming, “Don’t cry over spilt milk!”

He then invited his students to gather around the sink. “Take a good look,” he said, “because I want you to remember this lesson for the rest of your lives. That milk is gone – you can see it is down the drain; and all the fussing, and hair-pulling in the world will not bring back a single drop of it. All we can do is write it off, forget it, and go on to the next thing.”

A famous anonymous quote says, “The neurotic is a person who worries about something that did not happen in the past. He is not like us normal people who worry about things that will not happen in the future.”

A man once said, “When I do not have anything to worry about, I begin to worry about that.” That sounds funny, and yet that is precisely what many people do.

Live this day as a spiritual experiment to eliminate worry in your life. God will help you, For THIS is God’s will. Live in faith, not worry!

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

Dear God, today, I choose not to worry. With Your help I will live the next 24 hours without doubting in God’s ever-present help. I will think on the best and blest outcomes. Through a touch of God, I am uplifted right now in mind. Every thought within my human mind has at its center a belief in oneness with God, and because of that, the best possible results follow. Better than my human mind can dream of, the genius ability of God opens up ways when there seems to be no way. With my human mind alone it is impossible; but with God, all things are possible. This day, I rely solely and completely on God. I place God first in every thought and feeling, every action, and reaction. I am not alone, I am connected to God – my help in every need.

In Jesus Christ’s name … amen

Positive Daily Inspiration – October 26, 2022 – THE MEASURE YOU GIVE

Positive Daily Inspiration - October 26, 2022 - THE MEASURE YOU GIVE

“The measure you give will be the measure you get, and STILL MORE WILL BE GIVEN YOU.”
Mark 4:24

You are a spiritual person, so you decide to go the extra mile, you give the extra blessing, and new doors of good are opened in your life.

Think of a time when someone did something for you that was totally unexpected, something that required an extra effort on their part. Do you recall how it made you feel? Do you recall how your heart overflowed with gratitude? That person’s giving of themselves opened the door for an exchange of love and appreciation between you. Since we can never give without receiving, who can say what other doors in their life may have been opened through this initial giving to you.

If you have been praying for some new good, for some new door to open in your life, think in terms of the law of giving and receiving. When you reach out in love and go the extra mile, when you give the extra blessing, you set into motion a chain reaction of good that enriches the lives of those around you, and unfailingly returns to enrich your life beyond that that you can imagine.

Your giving of yourself opens new doors to happy and abundant living.

You will find, after giving, that you have many more blessings to count, because you, first, have been a blessing to others. We all want more of God’s good in our world. You are God’s catalyst to create that good for others and in return, for yourself.

Do not be afraid to give yourself away, for in giving happiness is found.

Today is a good day to pray for opportunities to give, and to thank God for them.

In Nehemiah 2:20, our Bible states, “The God of Heaven will make us prosper.” But the biblical law is that we must give first, and then receive.

People think that giving is just about money, but it is so much more. Give as God guides you to give – a smile, an attentive ear, a compliment, a helping hand, or money. It is the spiritual time when you are not too busy with self-needs and you give self to others.

Each one of us, reading these words of this Positive Daily Inspiration, has individual and unique ways that we can give to the world around us. I suggest that for the next 12 hours, you dedicate yourself, this day, to seeking out opportunities to give of yourself.

Pray that you will not miss ANY opportunity where you are needed by God, to give a gift to one of God’s children.

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

Make me a channel of your peace
Where there is hatred let me bring your love;
Where there is injury, your pardon, Lord
And where there’s doubt the true faith in you.

O master, grant that I may never seek
So much to be consoled as to console
To be understood as to understand
To be loved as to love with all my soul.

Make me a channel of your peace
Where there is despair in life let me bring hope,
Where there is darkness only light
And where there’s sadness ever joy.

O master, grant that I may never seek
So much to be consoled as to console
To be understood as to understand
To be loved as to love with all my soul.

Make me a channel of your peace
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned
In giving to all men that we receive
And in dying that we are born to eternal life.

(Prayer of St Francis of Assisi)

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION: I will never miss an opportunity to give of myself.

POSITIVE DAILY QUOTE: “We are all born for love. It is the principle of existence and it’s only end.”
Benjamin Israeli

Positive Daily Inspiration – October 25, 2022 – Tuesday Prayer and Meditation

Positive Daily Inspiration - October 25, 2022 - Tuesday Prayer and Meditation

“Be strong and courageous; do not be frightened or dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”
Joshua 1:9

I invite you to close your eyes and enter into the awareness of the presence of God and have a spiritual experience of wonder and awe. This is a glorious inner-journey of prayer.

As you close your eyes, you prepare in prayer. You prepare to think less and receive more, to receive life and vitality, to listen to the small, still voice. The ever-real voice of God is with you at all times and can be heard whenever you agree to be aware of its presence.

Rest in the silence of prayer …

I pray the life of God is released in me, right now. I pray that every cell in my physical body feels this life of God. May this be such a real spiritual experience that I know what I feel is real – in me now. May the mind of God be fused to my mind. May my thoughts be the thoughts of God. May the words from my mouth be the words of God. May I proceed in my life, this week, with the wisdom of God guiding me and aiding me.

Rest in the silence of prayer …

I pray I have the power of God within my physical body. Every cell is in God’s power; every muscle is in God’s power; every joint is in God’s power, every bone of my skeletal system is in the power of God. When I move, I move with strength, vitality, and energy of God.

(Silence)

When I go about my work, I do not work alone. I work with God. It is my personal prayer, this day that I have this awareness of who and what I am and what I have with God. May my objective, this day, be to know God and to increase my faith. May God be my inspiration, my way, and my strength.

I ask you to rest in the silence of prayer …

In God I live. In God I move and I have my being. In me, God lives and moves and has expression. My mind accepts the genius of God. In God’s world, my life is filled with joy and happiness. Everything troubling in my life turns out better than my human mind can conceive. I live in God’s world, and in God’s world, good is unending.

It is my personal prayer for you, individually, that your good is unending; that you experience more good of God than you have ever known before in your lifetime; that it begins this moment; that your life is no longer a roller coaster of up-and-down activity. May your life be filled with friendship, love, and unexpected good approaching you from every direction.

(Silence)

May we all live in God’s world of abundant life and endless good. Each of us, this day, I pray, “Yes, God, I will. I will do Your Will because Your Will is absolute good.”

In the name and through the power of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION: The brightness of God’s presence wipes out all darkness, and I am filled with light, life, and peace.

POSITIVE DAILY QUOTE: “There’s only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that’s your own self.”
Aldous Huxley

“Let me hear in the morning of God’s steadfast love, for in God I put my trust.”
Psalms 143:8

NEW Positive Video – see below

Good morning, God. Thank You, for Your loving care and protection through the night and for the light of this new day. Thank You for the limitless vitality of Your Spirit within me which recharges and restores me so that I am renewed and refreshed, ready for this wonderful day in Your wonderful world.

Thank You, God, for this day, which is filled with promise of happy and worthwhile activities and experiences. I accept this day with gratitude and glean its blessings as they come to me through each moment and from every direction.

As I live in conscious awareness of Your presence, I sense the order, rightness, and beauty of each moment. The clear inspiration of the morning is with me all through the day, and I am filled with interest, strength, and vitality for every task and every opportunity for constructive self-expression. Thank You, God, that I am sustained and upheld in the thoughts of this bright morning.

Thank You, God, that wherever I am, You are also. Your love is a protecting mantle over me. I am enfolded and guarded from harm. I turn all of my concerns over to You God, assured that my safety lies in You and that Your stability and strength outweigh my concerns.

At every moment of this wonderful day, I am Divinely guided and protected.

The psalmist assures me:

“He will give his angels charge over you, to guard you in all your ways.”

On this wonderful day, I have a freedom, and a sense of peace and security that follows my conviction and sure knowledge that You, dear God, are my instant and constant help in every need.

I give thanks for the assurance of Your care, knowing that it is in You that I live, move, and have my being.

Wherever I go this wonderful day, You light my path.

Your love upholds me.

God, You are my strength in time of need.

God Your presence is with me this wonderful day, and every day, forever.

In Jesus Christ’s name … Amen

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

Abide with me! Fast falls the eventide,
The darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide!
When other helpers fail and comforts seem to flee,
Help of the helpless, O abide with me!

Amen.

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION: God has need of me and my talents. God leads me where I can serve and receive richly.

Positive Daily Inspiration - October 23, 2022 - Sunday Funnies

(Submitted with our great thanks)

“Know therefore that the LORD your God, is God, the faithful God, who keeps God’s covenant and God’s lovingkindness to a thousandth generation with those who love God and keep God’s commandments.”
Deuteronomy 7:9

One particular four-year-old prayed, “And forgive us our trash baskets as we forgive those who put trash in our baskets.”

A little boy was overheard praying: “Lord, if you can’t make me a better boy, don’t worry about it. I’m having a real good time like I am.”

A Sunday school teacher asked her little children, as they were on the way to church service, “And why is it necessary to be quiet in church?” One bright little girl replied, “Because people are sleeping.”

The preacher was wired for sound with a lapel microphone, and as he preached, he moved briskly about the platform, jerking the mike cord as he went. Then he moved to one side, getting wound up in the cord and nearly tripping before jerking it again. After several circles and jerks, a little girl in the third pew leaned toward her mother and whispered, “If he gets loose, will he hurt us?”

A mother was preparing pancakes for her sons, Kevin, 5, Ryan, 3. The boys began to argue over who would get the first pancake. Their mother saw the opportunity for a moral lesson. “If Jesus were sitting here, He would say ‘Let my brother have the first pancake, I can wait”. Kevin turned to his younger brother and said, “Ryan, you be Jesus!”

A father was at the beach with his children when his four-year-old son ran up to him, grabbed his hand, and led him to the shore, where a seagull lay dead in the sand. “Daddy, what happened to him?” the son asked. “He died and went to Heaven,” the dad replied. The boy thought a moment and then said, “Did God throw him back down?”

_____

When my grandson, Billy, and I entered our vacation cabin, we kept the lights off until we were inside to keep from attracting pesky insects. Still, a few fireflies followed us in. Noticing them before I did, Billy whispered, “It’s no use, Grandpa. The mosquitoes are coming after us with flashlights.”

_____

A mother was telling her little girl what her own childhood was like: “We used to skate outside on a pond. I had a swing made from a tire; it hung from a tree in our front yard. We rode our pony. We picked wild raspberries in the woods.” The little girl was wide-eyed, taking this in. At last she said, “I sure wish I’d gotten to know you sooner!”

_____

A little girl was diligently pounding away on her father’s laptop computer. She told him she was writing a story. “What’s it about?” he asked. “I don’t know,” she replied. “I can’t read.”

_____

I didn’t know if my granddaughter had learned her colors yet, so I decided to test her. I would point out something and ask what color it was. She would tell me, and always, she was correct. But it was fun for me, so I continued. At last she headed for the door, saying sagely, “Grandma, I think you should try to figure out some of these yourself!”

_____

Our five-year-old son Mark couldn’t wait to tell his father about the movie we had watched on television, “20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.” The scenes with the submarine and the giant octopus had kept him wide-eyed. In the middle of the telling, my husband interrupted Mark. “What caused the submarine to sink?” With a look of incredulity Mark replied, “Dad, it was the 20,000 leaks!”

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

What can I give God
Poor as I am?
If I were a shepherd
I would bring a lamb;
If I were a wise man
I would do my part;
Yet what I can I give God –
Give my heart.

– Rossetti

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION: I am one with the life of God!

POSITIVE DAILY QUOTE: “I believe that prayer is the very soul and essence of religion, and, therefore prayer is the very core of the life of a person, for no one can live without prayer.”

Positive Daily Inspiration - October 22, 2022 - Saturday Inspiration

(Submitted with our great thanks)

“Cast your burden upon the Lord, and He shall sustain you. He shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.”
Psalm 55:23

The following is a true story that happened in a church in 1995:

One night, in a church service, a young woman felt the tug of God at her heart. She responded to God’s call and accepted Jesus and asked God for forgiveness of her past. The young woman had a very rough past, involving alcohol, drugs, and prostitution. But the change in her was evident.

As time went on, she became a faithful member of the church. She eventually became involved in the ministry, teaching young children. It was not very long until this faithful young woman had caught the eye and heart of the pastor’s son. The relationship grew and they began to make wedding plans. This is when the problems began.

You see, about one half of the church did not think that a woman with a past such as hers was suitable for a pastor’s son. The church began to argue and fight about the matter. So they decided to have a meeting.

As the people made their arguments and tensions increased, the meeting was getting completely out of hand. The young woman became very upset about all the things being brought up about her past.

As she began to cry, the pastor’s son stood to speak. He could not bear the pain it was causing his wife-to-be. He began to speak and his statement was this: “My fiancé’s past is not what is on trial here. What you are questioning is the ability of God to forgive sin. Today you have put the forgiveness of God on trial. So, does it wash away the past or not?” The whole church began to weep as they realized that they had been slandering the perfect forgiveness of God.

Too often, even as Christians, we bring up the past and use it as a weapon against our brothers and sisters. Forgiveness is a very foundational part of the love of God. If the love of God does not cleanse the other person completely, then it cannot cleanse us completely.

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

Dear God, I no longer want to be a block to your love.
I choose this weekend to live my life as a conduit of your love.
I agree not to put conditions on who gets that love, or who does not.
May I give unconditional love by following You more completely.

In Jesus Christ’s name … Amen

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION: The love of God harmonizes and heals the thoughts I hold in mind about others.

POSITIVE DAILY QUOTE: “The quality of a person’s life is in direct proportion to their commitment to excellence, regardless of their chosen field of endeavor.”
Vince Lombardi

Positive Daily Inspiration – October 21, 2022 – POSITIVE AFFIRMATIONS

Positive Daily Inspiration - October 21, 2022 - POSITIVE AFFIRMATIONS

“The sower sows the word. And these are the ones along the path … who hear the word, and accept it, and bear fruit.”
Mark 4:14,15, 20

One of our most popular daily features is the one line positive affirmations at the bottom of every Positive Daily Inspiration. These affirmations are written down daily by people all over the world, and reprinted often in many different venues. Around a thousand, are on Our Encyclopedia Of Prayer, for you to use, and print any time.

Today, we will have a special day, of talking to ourselves in a positive way, and opening up the avenues for God to come through us.

Start this day affirming aloud in prayer:

“Today in every way, I expect and accept God’s blessings – I rise now to receive my good.”

This expectation of fulfillment spiritually influences your day in a positive and healthy way.

As you affirm statements of God’s truth, you allow the power of that truth to work in and through you. You affirm, in prayer, good for yourself and for others. By so doing, you extend your faith in God’s power to bless, to harmonize, and to heal.

“The Spirit of God renews my mind and heals my body. I am restored, right now, to complete energy and health.”

“The Spirit of God prospers my life. I am abundantly blessed! I expect a miracle.”

“The Spirit of God fills my life with order, love, and the fulfillment of every need.”

“Divine love permeates the atmosphere of my life, touching every person, place, and thing. God helps all situations unfold in orderly ways. God goes ahead of me to produce right conditions everywhere.”

“Divine love indwells each person and radiates one to another. Harmony is established now and peace reigns in the world.”

“I am calm and poised in God’s love. God’s love is magnified and multiplied in my life.”

“I am a glow with the Christ Spirit. I make a difference wherever I go. Divine love blesses, through me, everything in my world.”

“My soul magnifies the Lord and my Spirit rejoices in the power of God to make all things right.”

“God’s Divine intelligence is now active in my mind and my body, adjusting, harmonizing, and healing every part.”

“God’s love includes every living creature, and God loves me.” “The swift, powerful action of the Holy Spirit fills my life with love and goodness.”

“The loving touch of Christ brings fulfillment into my life.” “Eternal life is mine through Christ. All the cells of my body glow with health and vigor.”

“Life of God, so strong and sure, makes me well and keeps me pure.” “I am free from tension, stress, or strain; and I am relaxed in the knowledge that God is my help in every need.”

“God is in charge of this day and my life. God heals and strengthens me.” “I am enfolded in the one great Heart that beats for all. My mind is at peace.”

“My life is a living expression of the presence of God, with me and within me.”

“Let the great peace of the presence of God shine through me.”

Through faith in God, my body is bathed in Divine light and wholeness. I am whole and well. My body is kept in perfect working order.

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

The Knots Prayer
Author known to God

Dear God,

Please untie the knots that are in my mind, my heart, and my life.
Remove the have nots, the can nots and the do nots that I have in my mind.
Erase the will nots, may nots, might nots that may find a home in my heart.
Release me from the could nots, would nots and should nots that obstruct my life.
And most of all, Dear God, I ask that you remove from my mind, my heart and my life all of the “am nots” that I have allowed to hold me back, especially the thought that I am not good enough.

Amen

Positive Daily Inspiration – October 20, 2022 – SPEAK ONLY ENCOURAGING, LOVING, AND INSPIRING WORDS

Positive Daily Inspiration - October 20, 2022

SPEAK ONLY ENCOURAGING, LOVING, AND INSPIRING WORDS

“Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer.”
Psalms 19:14

Every person has the ability to create harmony, order, and peace within themselves, and in their world.

This week, you speak ONLY positive words. Positive, uplifting words are powerful. They assist the healing of body and relationships. By speaking powerful, creative words, Jesus healed bodies and minds, controlled the environment, and raised the dead.

When you speak words in agreement with the desired conditions, you help bring them into manifestation. Your words are powerful prayers. Your words help you to realize your oneness with God and God’s will of good for you. Words have the power to change you, to express your love for others, and to change all of the current life circumstances for the good. You use words wisely, helping you to create the good you desire.

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

To begin this verbal, spiritual quest, speak aloud the prayers below:

In the name of Jesus Christ, a Divine light manifests insight and inspiration within me. I am guided by God in all that I do.

God’s life that created me, and constantly re-creates me, is right now manifesting order and strength in my mind and my body. I am strong, vital, and whole. I now feel the healing power of God Almighty at work in me. Moment by moment, God’s strength expands and increases in my mind and body.

The peace of God flows from my heart to my lips to verbally bless the world with harmony and love. My words are God-empowered to bless myself and others.

God’s love manifests bountiful good in my life. My life is exciting as I get into the cornucopia of good that God has prepared for me. I am abundantly blessed.

God’s love is the foundation of every word that I speak today. My words manifest harmony and love in my life and in the lives of others. I am successful in all of my endeavors, because there is no agenda other than being loving.

God, guide the words of my lips and the thoughts of my mind. I give You my mouth to use, today, for the betterment of the world around me.

Truly the love of God sets me free this day. I choose to accept it, use it in word and action.

Thank You for your loving help, dear God.

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION: God is with me, right now, as love.

POSITIVE DAILY QUOTE: “The problem is not that there are problems. The problem is expecting otherwise and thinking that having problems is a problem.”
