159 How to Have a Good Day by Starting Your Day with God

Episode Summary:  Have you ever gone through really difficult circumstances, and just craved a good day? A really good day? Many years ago, that’s what I longed for. In this episode, I’ll share what I’ve learned about how to have a good day by starting your day with God. When we start our day with God, He will be on your mind throughout the day, and that helps make every day a good day! Quotables from the episode: The course of our day will be directly impacted good or bad, dependent on whether we start our day with God. The Bible warns how to start our day (Psalm 118:24; Psalm 103:1; Ephesians 6:11; Lamentations 3:22-23; Matthew 5:16) Let’s talk about how do I pray to start a day: Thanksgiving; wisdom and guidance; protection; believing he works all things for good. There’s a 5-minute morning routine that makes a huge difference on whether I have a good day or not. Scripture References: Psalm 42:8 But each day the LORD pours his unfailing love upon me, and through each night I sing his songs, praying to God who gives me life.
