Inviting God into Your Daily Life

“God, I invite Your searching gaze into my heart. Examine me through and through; find out everything that may be hidden within me. Put me to the test and sift through all my anxious cares. See if there is any path of pain I am walking on, and lead me back to Your glorious, everlasting way — the path that brings me back to you.”

—Psalm 139:23–24 (TPT)

God is so good, and He desires for you to be completely healed and completely well in all areas. If you will allow Him access to every area of your life and give Him permission to show you any areas of pain or areas of needed growth, and then ask Him for wisdom and direction, He will give it to you (James 1:5). God is your ultimate life coach! He will show you how to balance your life, so you do not feel overwhelmed and depleted. He will reveal where you need to repent, grow, and leave old ways behind. He will lead you to the path that brings life to you. God will finish everything He has started with you, and by doing so, He brings your life to perfect completion. He will take you into greater glory and greater victory if you will allow Him.

Affirm yourself daily with the positive words that God has for you—the things that His Word says you are, in Him. Always remember that He is good and that He has good plans for you (Jeremiah 29:11)!

God is called the great I AM, and His Holy Spirit lives inside of you. He has given you every spiritual blessing to equip you for life. All things are possible with Him (Matthew 19:26)! You can do this!

Here are three Bible-based affirmations for today to get you started:

I AM loved. I AM being transformed into God’s likeness. I AM powerful in Christ.

Romans 8:28 ( NKJV) And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose

Romans 7:15-24
New International Version
15 I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do. 16 And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. 17 As it is, it is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me. 18 For I know that good itself does not dwell in me, that is, in my sinful nature.[a] For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. 19 For I do not do the good I want to do, but the evil I do not want to do—this I keep on doing. 20 Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it.

Romans 8
New International Version
Life Through the Spirit
8 Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, 2 because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you[a] free from the law of sin and death. 3 For what the law was powerless to do because it was weakened by the flesh,[b] God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh to be a sin offering.[c] And so he condemned sin in the flesh, 4 in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fully met in us, who do not live according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

5 Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. 6 The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace. 7 The mind governed by the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God’s law, nor can it do so. 8 Those who are in the realm of the flesh cannot please God.

9 You, however, are not in the realm of the flesh but are in the realm of the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, they do not belong to Christ. 10 But if Christ is in you, then even though your body is subject to death because of sin, the Spirit gives life[d] because of righteousness. 11 And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of[e] his Spirit who lives in you.

12 Therefore, brothers and sisters, we have an obligation—but it is not to the flesh, to live according to it. 13 For if you live according to the flesh, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the misdeeds of the body, you will live.

14 For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God. 15 The Spirit you received does not make you slaves, so that you live in fear again; rather, the Spirit you received brought about your adoption to sonship.[f] And by him we cry, “Abba,[g] Father.” 16 The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God’s children. 17 Now if we are children, then we are heirs—heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory.

Present Suffering and Future Glory
18 I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. 19 For the creation waits in eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed. 20 For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope 21 that[h] the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the freedom and glory of the children of God.
