&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; "I will give them singleness of heart and action, so that they will always fear me for their own good and the good of their children after them" (Jeremiah 32:39).

Thoughts
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; In his book Divine Conspiracy, Dallas Willard states that the current gospel has become a "gospel of sin management . . . Transformation of life and character is no part of the redemptive message." Many Christians hunger to live...]]></description>

Thoughts
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;In the preface to The Knowledge of the Holy, A. W. Tozer writes that we have lost our ability to withdraw inwardly to meet God in adoring silence. But how pleased God is with every attempt we make to gain that...]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[October 6, Day 38–The Word–"Consider the great love of the Lord" (Psalm 107:43).

Thoughts
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; "His love endures forever" appears to be a victory mantra of the Old Testament. The Israelites entered their battle against the men of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir singing: 
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; Give thanks to the Lord,
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; For his love endures forever.
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; They didn't go forward singing, "Give thanks to the...]]></description>

Thoughts
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; To help you prepare for His presence, let God search your heart through the following questions. 
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; 1. Is my delight in pleasing Him or in my own honor? Our "motives are weighed by the Lord." To the degree that we have the mind of Christ, we, too, will weigh our motives. Our natural mind might say, "I wonder if others are impressed." The mind of...]]></description>

Thoughts

&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; "May he give you the desire of your heart," the psalmist prayed in Psalm 20:4. He did not say "desires."  
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; Those who have God's law in their heart can say, "I have one deep supreme desire. My one desire is to please God...]]></description>

Thoughts

&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; Sometimes when reading a psalm I like to see what Charles Spurgeon commented on the verses in his Treasury of David. His thoughts on Psalm 91:15 are especially comforting. The verse gives God wonderful promise: "I will be with him in trouble." Here is a bit of what Spurgeon wrote:

         <description><![CDATA[October 1, Day 33–The Word– "I delight to do Your will, O my God, And Your law is within my heart" (Psalm 40:8 NKJV).

Thoughts
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; Many people are living under the Old Covenant. They receive His word and respond, "Yes, we will do whatever You want us to do." Later they find that their desires are contrary to what God wants and may even feel powerless to obey. They are sorry. They seek His forgiveness, and again set out to do His will.

         <link>http://aletha.webnode.com/news/inner-impressions/</link>
         <description><![CDATA[Dear Aletha,
For me, knowing if I’m hearing God is a common dilemma. I have a quiet whisper in my mind or a soft impression on my heart, and I wonder if it’s God. Could it be my own inner thoughts? Or Satan? How can I distinguish God’s voice from other internal impressions I “hear”? 
Lori 

Dear Lori,
God does speak to us and to hear Him is a wonderful privilege. “My sheep listen to my voice” (John 10:27). It’s true, though, that impressions can either come from God, our own desires, or from...]]></description>

My devotions have been especially dry lately. I feel as though I have not really been fed spiritually for a long time. I would love to spend an extended time alone with Jesus. What do you suggest I do to make the block of time a fresh encounter with God?

         <description><![CDATA[Dear Aletha,
My husband and I have been asked to leave the church we have pastored for five years. We had no inkling our parishioners were discontented. Then—wham! We were fired and don’t even know why. We feel so low we could slide under the door.
Sometimes I think I can forgive. At other times the pain of rejection is intense. I truly want Jesus to give me grace so bitterness won’t invade my soul. I know that the way we handle this will affect our children. Do you have any suggestions to help...]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[Dear Aletha,
All during my married life, I have not only been a victim of verbal and emotion abuse but also an abuser. I truly think that my husband and I are both at fault in our relationship.

Throughout almost 22 years of marriage, he has almost never helped me grow spiritually and has almost never supported me in my endeavors. In my opinion, he has only cared about me for what I can do for him. My assessment may be incorrect, but I can say what I feel. Most of my pain is that I've spent all...]]></description>
