Father, every day is a good day to renew our minds to how much You love us and to Your first and second commandments to Your churchto love You and each other. You have told us that this Love never fails!
Help us today, dear God, to allow You to flow that love that You have poured out in our hearts through the Holy Spirit Who has been given to us. to You and to others. We receive Your promise that it will not fail.
Today we love the kings and all who are in authority over our Nation and our military men and women by praying for them. If they are enemies, we obey Jesus command to pray for them. If they are not enemies, we pray to support them. Either way, we trust in the Almighty to move great mountains on their behalf. Show them Your grace and mercy, God. Any who do not know and have not experienced Jesus salvation, show them how lovely You are. Those who know You and are called by Your name, give them boldness to declare Your love. Let the unbelievers around them be jealous of the grace: protection, fruits of the Spirit, favor and increase that You show Your beloved.
We declare our love for You today and thank You for all that You are surely doing to set our Nation on the right course and providing success for our military operations. We bless You in Jesus name. Amen.
Please pray with me today for our Nation and our beloved military heroes.

As we anticipate the coming celebration of Easter, I begin thinking about the sacrifice Jesus made so that I could be reconciled to God. To help me focus on all that He gave up for me, I make a small sacrifice of my own. When I fast from something I normally enjoy, every craving for that food or drink or pastime reminds me of how much more Jesus gave up for me.
Because I want to be successful, I tend to give up something that isnt a big temptation for me. Yet even then I fail. My inability to be perfect in such a small thing reminds me of why Easter is so important. If we could be perfect, Jesus would not have had to die.
The rich young man whom Jesus encountered along a Judean road was trying to earn eternal life by being good. But Jesus, knowing the man could never be good enough, said, With men [salvation] is impossible, but not with God (Mark 10:27).
Although giving up something does not make anyone good, it does remind us that no one is good except God (v.18). And thats important to remember, for it is the sacrifice of a good and perfect God that makes our salvation possible.
Read: Mark 10:17-27

2 Corinthians 3:6 He has enabled us to be ministers of his new covenant. This is a covenant not of written laws, but of the Spirit. The old written covenant ends in death; but under the new covenant, the Spirit gives life.
