Minutia - Unbroken Fellowship

Minutia is defined as the small, precise, or trivial details of something. "the minutiae of everyday life"

The Lord cares about all of the details of our day.  He longs for unbroken fellowship with us. We are instructed to pray constantly. Paul said to the Galatians, "In Him we live and move and have our being." Jesus tells us that He is the vine and we are the branch. He doesn't want us to be separated from Him even for a moment. And even if we don't pray aloud we can ask the Lord to make us aware of His presence.

It is a challenge to be sure, but if we do pray continually He will constantly direct us and manifest Himself to us!

He loves us! O how He loves us!






*John 15:5 “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.
*I Thessalonians 5:17 pray continually,
*Mark 12:30

‘And you shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength. This is the first commandment.   **See also Proverbs 3:6  In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.   John 14:20 When I am raised to life again, you will know that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you.  *John 15:7 “If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you.

A Pure Heart

King David was a man after God's own heart. Simply put David loved the Lord. He sinned many times, just like we all do, but he was quick to repent.  King David  truly wanted to please the Lord and knew He needed God's word in order to do that. He spent time in prayer and asked the Lord to give him a clean heart. And then He hid the word in his heart to keep him from straying.

If we truly love the Lord we must spend time in prayer and hide His word in our heart.




*Acts 13:22 “And when He had removed him, He raised up for them David as king, to whom also He gave testimony and said, ‘I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after My own heart, who will do all My will.’

* Psalms 51:10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.

*Psalms 119:11 Your word I have hidden in my heart,  That I might not sin against You.

The Wrong Kind of Spark

Words can wound and they can heal. They can stir up anger or they can bring peace.

Just one little spark; (of anger), can cause a huge forest fire in the lives of the people within our sphere of influence.

There are times when we all struggle with our words but there is hope!

Spirit-filled believers have the fruit of self-control. It behooves us to pause when we are tempted to say words that may harm others.

Prayer: Father let the words of our mouths and the thoughts of our minds be pleasing in Your sight.





*Galatians 5:22-23 But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.

*James 3:13 Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by good conduct that his works are done in the meekness of wisdom.
