--> Note :- Are you born again? You are never going to win the battle against the devil if you are not born again. I plead with you to give your life to Jesus today because the longer you stay in sin and remain unsaved, the more hardened your nature becomes against the purpose and the way God wants you to be for His purpose. To give your life to Jesus now, say this prayer: “Father, I come to You in the name of Jesus. I know that I am a sinner and I cannot save myself but Jesus died for me and shed His blood that I might be saved. Today, I accept Jesus as my Lord and Saviour. Jesus, I ask You to come into my heart, be my Lord, wash me with Your blood and make me whole. I believe with my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord. Thank You for saving me. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.” I congratulate you and welcome you to the family of God if you have sincerely said that prayer. Now you are fit to discover, know and walk in your destiny.

Read: 

Isaiah 26:1-19
You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you! (Isaiah 26:3).

Paying attention is one of our most underrated capacities. Our lives are greatly affected by what we do and don’t pay attention to. For example, if we’re inattentive to a bill’s due date, we’ll incur late fees. In the same way, if we ignore our emotions or try to blunt them, we’ll miss out on more deeply relating with others and God.

Neuroscience, the study of the nervous system, has found that paying focused attention to all aspects of our being (including emotions and body sensations) promotes healthy mental states like inner peace. Our brains function more coherently—they literally create new neurons and new neural connections, while “pruning” older neural connections that promote states of inner unrest.
Long before studies revealed the health benefits of paying attention, the Old Testament prophet Isaiah hailed its importance. Picturing the coming day of God’s worldwide renewal (that would start with Jerusalem) he wrote, “You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you!” (Isaiah 26:3).
God longs for us to fix our attention on Him. He knows this is essential to experiencing His deep inner peace, one that transcends the facts of the most difficult set of circumstances (Philippians 4:7).
Let’s practice what the psalmist described in poetic form: “Reflect” on God’s “ways” (Psalm 119:15). “Meditate,” that is, pay attention on purpose to His “wonderful deeds” (Psalm 119:27). And if sleep escapes you, “stay awake through the night” and focus on His “promise” (Psalm 119:148).
Take some slow, deep breaths and pay attention to the One who breathed into the first human the breath of life (Genesis 2:7). Your peace of mind depends on Him and what He’s doing within you.
NLT 365-day reading plan passage for today: Luke 10:25-42
