Today’s Scripture
Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.
Proverbs 4:23, NIV

Take a Look Inside
One of our main responsibilities is to keep negative emotions and attitudes out of our heart. You can’t stop offenses, disappointments, hurts, jealousy, or anger from coming. But are you going to let those negatives take root, get down in your spirit, contaminate your joy, take your energy, and open you up to sickness and defeat? No, keep your soul healthy. The Scripture says to make sure “that no root of bitterness springs up and many become defiled.” Pull up the roots of unforgiveness, insecurity, guilt, and condemnation. Don’t let your soul become poisoned. If your soul is bitter, if your emotional well-being is contaminated, it’s going to affect your physical health as well.

Today, I’m asking you to look inside. Are you positive, hopeful, and grateful, or are you weighed down with stress, burdens, and worry? It’s time to get your soul healthy. Don’t just try to deal with the symptoms. Pull up the bitter roots. Start turning things over to God. Release the worry, the hurt, and what didn’t work out. Live from a place of trust and keep guarding your heart.

A Prayer for Today
“Father, thank You that I can guard my heart and keep it free from all the negative emotions and attitudes that try to enter in and take root. I declare that I will stay aware and pull up any roots 1lĺlĺpsee how God never despises the little things.

When the boy brought his five loaves and two fish, the disciple Andrew scoffed, condescendingly patted the boy on his head and said to Jesus, “What are they among so many?” (John 6:9). In direct contrast, God did not despise the boy’s small lunch.

My friend, don’t despise the little things that you have right now. See them as your very own “five loaves and two fish” even when people around you mock and belittle you.

Learn to disregard such people and lay your little before Jesus. While you and I have no power to multiply, Jesus certainly does!

So whatever you are building right now in your career, your ministry, or your business, don’t despise the day of small, humble, and seemingly insignificant beginnings. Involve Jesus and allow His provision of favor, wisdom, and power to multiply and grow the little things in your hands.
