&#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>

         <description><![CDATA[October 7, Day 39–The Word– "I have set the Lord always before me. Because he is at my right hand, I will not be shaken . . . you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand" (Psalm 16:8, 11).

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>

         <description><![CDATA[October 4, Day 36–The Word–"All my longings lie open before you, O Lord" (Psalm 38:9). 

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>

         <description><![CDATA[October 2, Day 34–The Word–"I will be with him in trouble" (Psalm 91:15)

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:
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; "No mother can equally sympathize with her suffering child as the Lord does with...]]></description>

         <title>The Law in our Hearts</title>
         <link>http://aletha.webnode.com/news/the-law-in-our-hearts/</link>
         <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.

         <description><![CDATA[September 31, Day 32–The Word– "May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. The one who calls you is faithful and he will do it" (1 Thes. 5:23).


Thoughts
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; Isaiah had been prophesying "Woe to you" to others. (Isa. 3:9,11; 5:8, 11, 18-22). But when he found Himself in the presence of a holy God, he cried "Woe to me! I am ruined! For I am a man of...]]></description>

Thoughts
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; Sharon had been a Christian leader for over ten years, and yet her heart was not satisfied. Where was the overflow of joy and the power to be victorious? She felt ineffective in her service.
