Raynette K. Weiss Ministries run by Rev. Raynette K. Weiss and Assistant Minister    Jessie K. Weiss invite you to Psalm 13. Monday, May 15, 2023.

Bible verse of the day: Psalm 68:19 Praise be to the Lord, to God our Savior, who daily bears our burdens.

Daily Devotional: God equips his children to participate in his work on earth: by In Touch Ministries.

To get the most out of this devotion, set aside time to read the scriptures referenced throughout.

Imagine water flowing down a rock to a stream, then a river, and ultimately flowing out into the ocean. In a similar way, everything flows out of God’s provision for us. When God gives us abilities or other blessings, it’s not an accident, a product of our own hard work, or the result of good genes. Our God is a God who knows what He is doing—and He very specifically and intentionally gives us each different gifts, sometimes just for the benefit of others (1 Corinthians 12:4-7).

If you have particular skills, strengths, or financial blessings, give Him thanks. The purpose of our gifts isn’t to make us feel better about ourselves or improve the way other people see us. God’s gifts are an opportunity for us to know Him better and participate in building His kingdom. Through them, and in obedience to Him, we fulfill His mission.

Think about it

• What do you think it means to be “good stewards of the multifaceted grace of God” (1 Peter 4:10) in today’s culture?

  • How do you feel, knowing that God gifts us differently on purpose?

13:1 How long, Lord? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me?

13:2 How long must I wrestle with my thoughts and day after day have sorrow in my heart? How long will my enemy triumph over me?

13:3 Look on me and answer, Lord my God. Give light to my eyes, or I will sleep in death,

13:4 and my enemy will say, I have overcome him, and my foes will rejoice when I fall.

13:5 But I trust in your unfailing love; my heart rejoices in your salvation.

13:6 I will sing the Lords praise, for he has been good to me.

Summary; Even in the most difficult of times; Our Heavenly Father provides his grace and love to help us get through them. Our Friends and family also will also hear our cries for help and be there as well.

Closing Prayer; Give us protection and all those living in fear of death. Give us the strength to endure so tragedy will not prevail. Give us guidance, and to decision makers who are on the ground. We pray this in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Prayer of Salvation: Which is how you ask to become a child of Our Heavenly Father. Lord Jesus, I confess my sins and ask for your forgiveness. Please come into my heart as my Lord and Savior. Take complete control of my life and help me to walk in Your footsteps daily by the power of the Holy Spirit. Thank you Lord for saving me and I know you will answer my prayers. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
