God Knows Before You Do
“Then Abraham lifted his eyes and looked, and there behind him was a ram caught in a thicket by its horns. So Abraham went and took the ram, and offered it up for a burnt offering instead of his son”
Genesis 22:13

Ponder This
I don't know what your problem is today, but God already knows the answer.
Abraham thought he had a problem when he was going up to Mt. Moriah to sacrifice Isaac. He didn't know how his need was going to be met. But the moment Abraham started up one side of that mountain with Isaac, on the other side, a ram started up—the ram that was going to be the substitute for Isaac.
Abraham never saw the ram, but God saw it. God sent it. God planned for the substitutionary sacrifice long in advance. And I want to tell you, God knows a way for you. God has a plan for you. God has a plan for all of us.

Don’t give way to panic. Worry is an insult to Almighty God. Trust God—He already knows.
FOR YOUR GIFT TO THE MINISTRY
Front Porch Moments by Gayle Foster
WITH KEY INSIGHTS FROM HER FATHER, ADRIAN ROGERS
I try to unplug each morning with Jesus with just my rocking chair, my Bible, and a pen.
Having a secret place is very important because I know that Jesus is always there waiting for me. I know where I can find Him! His presence is everywhere, but there are places where it is so thick you can cut it with a knife. You may not even have a front porch, but there is a secret place for you as well. God’s invitations are for anyone who will respond. There is no more important request than the one found in Psalm 27:8: “My heart has heard You say, ‘Come and talk with Me.’ And my heart responds, ‘Lord, I am coming.’”
