My Personal God: My Lamp
by David Chadwick God is our praise, our delight, our God. He wants to become your personal God. When faced with a tough decision, where do you turn? Where do you look for help? God wants you to look to him. In every decision he faced, King David knew to look to God before looking anywhere else. He called out to God as "my lamp" (2 Samuel 22:29). Why does someone need a lamp? One obvious reason is for light. Did you know that during the time King David was alive, people would tie lamps to their feet at night? These lamps gave light to their dark paths so that they could see their next steps. That's why David referred to God's Word as a lamp to his feet and a light to his path (Psalm 119:105). God wants to be a lamp to your feet. He wants to lead you in his way and will. And as this world becomes increasingly darker, we will need more and more of Jesus's light in and through us. However, we must remember that God's lamp is not a high beam on the highway. He rarely shows us miles ahead. But he will faithfully show us the next step and then the next one and then the next one, asking us to trust him along the way. He promises to be the lamp to our feet, showing us step by step. Do you know that your heavenly Daddy wants to be the light to your path? Pray to him, "Father, you are mine. Be my lamp. Light up my path and lead me in your perfect will for my life. Help me to trust you for each step that I take." Trust God today. And every day. For each step. Moment by moment. Day by day. Your personal God promises to light the way.

My Personal God: My Cup
by David Chadwick Not only is God the eternal Creator of the universe, he wants to be your close, personal friend. He longs for you to know him personally as your deliverer, King, and refuge. He wants to be your personal God. When you know God intimately and turn to him as you would a close friend, you begin to grasp the overwhelming goodness of his character. The vastness of his love. The multitude of ways that he provides for you daily. Today, God wants to reveal himself to each one of us as "my cup" (Psalm 16:5). To the godly, God offers a cup full of blessings. One that overflows with mercy and grace. One that promises to satisfy the thirstiest of souls. Think about it. When you are really thirsty, you not only need water, you need a cup. Something from which you can drink until your thirst is satisfied. A vessel to sip from to quench your thirst. The cup is the needed conduit for your thirst to be satisfied. God loves it when we hunger and thirst for him and for his righteousness (Matthew 5:6). This is one of the many reasons why we need to know God personally as our cup. Do you know God as your cup? If not, pray to him now: "Daddy, you are mine! Thank you for your love and provision. Remind me to drink daily from your cup of grace. I want to be overflowing with your love and filled to the brim with your blessings and provision." "As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul thirsts for you, O God" (Psalm 42:1). And when you drink from the cup of Jesus's grace, mercy, and love, you will never thirst again. You are my personal God. My cup.

My Personal God: My Delight
by David Chadwick The eternal God of the universe wants to be your close, personal friend. He's not a distant God. He is profoundly personal and he wants you to know him as your support, shepherd, and redeemer! Our heavenly Daddy also wants us to know him as "my delight" (Psalm 43:4, 16:3). God is our laughter, our fun, and our enjoyment in life. When we delight ourselves fully in him, God has promised that he will give us the desires of our heart (Psalm 37:4). Because of his grace and mercy, we are able to live a life of abundance and fulfillment in which we constantly praise him for all he has done. Why? Because it's God who fills our minds with joyful, pleasing thoughts. He has given us a sense of humor, and he wants us to use it each and every day. He loves to hear his children laugh! He is our delight! If God is our delight, we have no right to be sour or grouchy about life. God wants us to live each day with a joyful heart as we find our delight in him. When we know Jesus, the joy of the Lord truly is our strength (Nehemiah 8:10). Do you know the Lord as your delight? If not, pray to him today: "Lord, I want to know you as my personal delight. Help me find joy from within as I delight myself in you. Remind me to laugh often. Lead me to an abundant life with a heart that is full of joy." Delight yourself in the One who delights in you. He is your personal delight!

My Personal God: My Praise
by David Chadwick God is eternal. He is sovereign and in control of everything in the universe. And he wants to be your friend. He wants you to know him as your trust, your salvation, your refuge, and your hope. He wants to become your personal God. He also wants each one of us to be able to refer to him as "my praise." Do you know God personally? Do you rely on him as your Daddy? Have you placed your trust in him alone? When this becomes your reality, you can't help but thank him. You begin to recognize him for all he has done. To praise his holy name. Every good gift comes from God (James 1:17). It really is that simple. Our lives, our homes, our friendships, our family - all of it is a grace gift - from a Daddy who wants to abundantly bless his children. Once we are able to grasp the immense love that our Father has for us, we begin to know him as "my praise" (Psalm 109:1, 71:6, Jeremiah 17:14). Everything comes from God, and he is worthy of our praise. And everything we accomplish in life is done through his strength (Phil. 4:13). God is forever worthy of our constant praise! His praise will continually flow from my mouth. No complaining, just praise! Do you praise God continually? Do you acknowledge him at the beginning, end, and throughout each day of your life? You should! Today, begin to offer your praise to him: "Daddy, you are so good! Everything I have is from you. Everything! I am blessed, favored, and filled with your spirit. I am saved in Jesus's name - the greatest blessing of all! I will praise your name forever!" As you learn to praise God without ceasing, you will begin to know him more and more intimately and will cry out to him as "my praise!"

My Personal God: The Horn of My Salvation
by David Chadwick By now, you should be confident that the eternal God of the universe wants to be your close, personal friend. He longs to be your hope and your trust. For you to know him as your Father. To become your personal God. When you need stability and protection, where do you turn? God wants you to turn to him. He wants to lead you, guide you, and direct your paths. In Psalm 18:2, God is described as "the horn of my salvation." Here, the word "horn" symbolizes God's power and strength. It refers to the horn on an animal, like a rhinoceros, which gives it great strength among other animals. As the horn of our salvation, God governs, protects, strengthens, and preserves us all of our days. Did you know that God is also described as the "horn of salvation" in the New Testament? Before Jesus's birth, his mother Mary praised God for the coming Christ-child. She thanked God for raising up a horn of salvation, referring to Jesus in her womb (Luke 1:69). This "horn of salvation" through Jesus gives us eternal salvation and security. How? Because it is through Jesus's strength that we are set free from the curse of sin. His strength paid the price. His strength defeated evil by his death on the cross. His strength assured our eternal life with him. It is not anything we do. It is a free gift from God (Ephesians 2:8-9). When overtaken by life's problems, do you immediately turn to the Lord for strength and protection? Today, join me in prayer: "Daddy, thank you for the assurance of my salvation. You are the only one who keeps your promises to me. Help me rely on your strength and your strength alone to protect me, guide me, and lead me. You, Lord, are the horn of my salvation!" God's strength is available to us all each and every day.

My Personal God: My Father
by David Chadwick By now, you should really know that the eternal God of the universe wants to be your close, personal friend. He longs to be your helper, your hope, and your trust. He also wants you to know him as your Father. Jesus, God in human flesh, called his Father, "Abba," which means "Daddy." So did the apostle Paul in Romans 8. We should do the same. God wants all of his children to know him as "my Father" (Psalm 89:26). A personal Daddy. Our Daddy in heaven is always present. Always compassionate. Always loving. Always kind. Always good. No matter how wonderful your earthly daddy was or is, every earthly daddy will fall far short in comparison to our heavenly Daddy. God is the only One who can be the perfect parent at all times. Original sin created flaws in all humans. There is not a single person on earth who can love perfectly each and every day. But God can and does! Our heavenly Daddy is perfect. And his love for each one of us is perfect. He's a good, good Father who wants to give his children good gifts (Matthew 7:11). Gifts far greater than anything we could ask for or imagine (Ephesians 3:20). Do you know God as your Father? Pray to him now, "Daddy, I love you! You are a good and perfect Father. You love me perfectly each and every day. You desire to give me good things. I believe you will watch over and care for me all the days of my life. Thank you for unconditional love." Your Father loves you perfectly. His loving kindness knows no end!

My Personal God: My Trust
by David Chadwick The eternal God of the universe wants to be your close, personal friend. Your redeemer, your light, your trust. He is a personal God! Who in your life do you trust the most? Maybe it is a spouse? Friend? Parents? Sibling? In the midst of many earthly people and things in which we seek to place our trust, God wants you to trust him the most. Why? Because he is for you. He loves you deeply and promises to always provide what's best for you. King David called God "my trust" (Psalm 71:5). David leaned on the Lord. He depended on him at all times. From David's youth until the end of his life, he put his trust and confidence in God first and foremost. He trusted in the Lord with all his heart and did not lean on his own understanding (Proverbs 3:5-6). Do you put your trust in God or in people? Do you turn to God in prayer and leave the outcome solely in his hands? Or do you try to control circumstances that are ultimately outside your control? Your Daddy in heaven wants you to trust him with each and every area of your life. All means all. Every single situation in the universe, big and small, is under the sovereign control and authority of the Creator of it all. Today, place your trust in God. Believe he is there for you at all times and in all situations. Pray to him: "Daddy, thank you so much for loving me. Thank you for being my trust. I never have to worry because you promise that you will never leave me or forsake me! I trust you to be with me until the end of the age." God is your personal trust. You can fully trust him with every area of your life.

My Personal God: My Hope
by David Chadwick The Christian faith is different from all other world religions. The God of Christianity entered into our mess and offered grace to each one of us. This grace gift eliminates striving and extends an invitation to find a close, personal friend in our great God. God longs to be your redeemer, your shepherd, your helper. To become your personal God. From where does your hope come? Does it come from the things of this world? Or from the Creator of the world? King David knew true hope only came from God and called God "my hope" (Psalm 71:5). God wants you to call him your personal hope, too. When you know God as your hope, the Holy Spirit - the great Comforter - will encourage you day by day, moment by moment. He nudges you to keep pressing on, especially in the hard times when your heart fails and you feel like you can't endure another thing. Your Daddy knows his plans for you - plans to give you hope and a future. A future that includes using your gifts for his glory and his great purposes. He has a specific and unique calling on your life, one that cannot be thwarted even in this broken world (Jeremiah 29:11). Do you know Jesus as your eternal hope? Pray, "Jesus, you are my hope! Through you and because of your promises, I have secure, eternal hope. I also have daily hope because you live in me! I will not give up. I will not be shaken." Dear friends, always have hope because God is your personal hope!
