Daily Scripture Interactive Study for August 25, 2022

[Dr. Dorothy E. Hooks, PsyD]

Hello everyone, I pray you all and your families are well!! Here is our interactive scripture study for today. As I mentioned before, an interactive scripture study, will help us be more proactive with our daily scripture reading; it is a deeper study of the scriptures, it also helps us to pray the scriptures, and meditate on them better. Therefore, let’s DIVE into the Word of God!! Are you ready? Let’s go!!

Our Scripture for today is coming from Philippians 4:6 NLT:

^“Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done.”

What is YOUR observation of Philippians 4:6 NLT? What do YOU see?

My observation of Philippians 4:6 is: this Scripture is encouraging me NOT to worry but PRAY – PRAY about EVERYTHING – EVERY situation I face, good or bad, seek directions from God!! I WILL NOT lean to my own understanding but seek God’s wisdom. I WILL tell God what I need, and thank Him for ALL HE HAS DONE, in my life for me!! I WILL remind myself, I would not have made it, if God would not have been on my side. Therefore, God is NOT going to fail me now or NEVER!! God HAS ALWAYS been faithful, and He WILL ALWAYS be faithful to me! And I WILL ALWAYS be faithful to Him!

What is God saying to YOU today, as YOU read Philippians 4:6 NLT? How can YOU apply Philippians 4:6 NLT to YOUR life?

Today, God is encouraging me to WAIT on HIM – DON’T worry but PRAY, tell God what I need, WAIT for Him to answer, and thank Him for what He HAS done! And as I wait on Him, HE WILL strengthen me, comfort me, and renew me as I wait on HIM, to do ALL I need to have done!! I can apply Philippians 4:6 to my life, by keep reminding myself, God got “this,” and He got me. Therefore, I have to decide, to KEEP my mind STAYED on God, so HE can keep me in perfect peace – HIS peace, the peace Jesus left for me!!

What is YOUR prayer from Philippians 4:6 NLT?

My prayer from Philippians 4:6: Father, help me not to worry about ANYTHING, but to pray about EVERYTHING, to tell You what I need, even though You know what I need before I ask, I will tell You what I need, because You want me to ask. And I will thank You for what You have done for me! Help me Father, teach me how to wait on You, no matter how long it takes, and not get in a hurry, and try to fix things myself, or make things happen. Thank You Father for hearing and answering me! In Jesus’ Name I pray, Amen!
