Sift speech through a sieve

They that go down to the sea and do business in deep waters, they will see the wonders of God

They saw the works of the Lord, His wonderful deeds in the deep"
(Psalm 107:24, NIV)

TODAY'S WORD from Joel and Victoria

The scripture says is Psalm 107:23, "They that go down to the sea and do business in deep waters, they will see the wonders of God." Friend, you and I were created to do business in deep waters. In other words, we're not supposed to have little dreams or little plans. We are supposed to have big dreams. We are supposed to go out into the deep things God has for us. But understand, when you're out there in the deep waters, you can't touch the ground. You can't see the shoreline, and at times, it can get a little rocky. You may not always see how things are going to work out. But, the scripture tells us that deep calls to deep. In other words, God is the one who has called you to the deep waters. He is with you, and He knows there are deep things on the inside of you. When you are in those deep waters, you are not alone. God is with you, and He's causing those deep things inside of you to come forth.
If you feel like you are out in the deep today, if you feel like you are overwhelmed, remember, you are in the right place and God is with you. You will see His wonderful deeds in the deep, and you will fulfill the destiny He has in store for you.

A PRAYER FOR TODAY

Father in heaven, I surrender every area of my life to You. I hunger for every single thing You have in store for me. I choose to trust You out in the deep waters knowing that You have good things in store for me. In Jesus' Name. Amen.
— Joel & Victoria Osteen

If a man lives a pure life, nothing can destroy him.

"On life's journey faith is nourishment, virtuous deeds are a shelter, wisdom is the light by day and right mindfulness is the protection by night. If a man lives a pure life, nothing can destroy him."
