Crosswalk PLUS Video Devotional

Lord, thank you that you disconnect me from every negative mindset and all these foolish feelings of self-doubt that have held me back. Father, I ask that you would help me to trust you in the place of confidence; confidence in knowing that you are faithful and you are with me.

Dear Jesus, thank you so much for the inheritance that you have given us and stored up in glory for us. Help us to continually strive to follow you as best we can. Thank you that you use your power to guard us and bring us to that inheritance one day. May we ever look heavenward for that time.

God is before all things. He knew this day and this situation would come, and He is in all things, meaning He is sovereign and in absolute control over the timing of all things. In Him all things, including you, are held together.

He will not leave you or forsake you. And he desires us to be strong because he is with us. Not because we're so great on our own, but because we have the power of the Holy Spirit to walk us through, to teach us, to comfort us through life's challenging and joyful seasons.

Decide every day that you're going to conduct yourself with honor - in your thoughts, in your words, and in your actions. What if, this year, you and I determined to aim for honor? Let be said of us that we are people of honor who bring glory to our Savior.

My ongoing connection with God helps me recognize what doesn't depend on me, like other people's attitudes, reactions, and behaviors. By his strength I'm able to focus on my part, trusting God with the rest.

Father, thank you for reminding us how fleeting life is, and how important it is that we reach others with the goodness you've given us. I'm asking that you would help me to be even more obedient in spreading the good news about Jesus. There's truly no one like him!

Dear Jesus, thank you that we are like that tree planted by a continual source of water. Thank you that we, as believers, can put our trust in you and we don't need to fear the drought, and we will always be green and bearing fruit.

What if you and I were to no longer imagine the future and start fearing something that isn't even real? What if we were to instead only focus on what is true, real, pure, and lovely? In other words, not on the worst possible scenario... but on the good and perfect will of Christ.

Even though God is always close, He also wants to give us the best opportunity to feel and know His goodness in our lives. It is such a reminder and hope-bringer that whatever we are going through, it's an opportunity to see God and know Him.

As you fall in love with God through the pages of Scripture and fellowship with others who love God deeply, what will spill out of you will be a love for others, a love for Christ, a love for serving others, and will not grieve the spirit. Rather, it will bring joy to your soul.

Father, thank you for your Word. Let the blood of Jesus cleanse me from every wrong attitude and every wrong mindset that would keep me from being diligent. Help me to walk in diligence and excellence so that I may stand before great men and fulfill the destiny you have set before me.

Dear Jesus, please help us to keep in mind that the afflictions that we bear on this earth are preparing us for an eternity with you. Let us focus more on the things that we can't see than the things we can see. Let us focus more on the eternal than the transient.

How do you need to modify your routine so that you can find more peace and avoid things that want to provoke you towards envy?

Lord thank you for being there from the time we enter this earth and for making yourself known to us, Lord, when we were lost and clueless about you. Keep us close to your heart so we never doubt that we are seen and loved by you.
