My Take

DiVoran Lites

Monday-Labor Day

September 1, 2025

God will meet

All your needs

According to His

Glorious riches

In Christ Jesus.

Phil.4:19

We are God’s 

Workmanship, created

In Christ Jesus to do good works, 

which God prepared in advance 

For us to do.

Eph. 2:10

Rejoice

In the 

Lord always

I will say it again:

Rejoice

Phil. 4:4

God is our refuge and strength,

A very present help

In trouble.

Ps. 46:1

DiVoran has been writing for most of her life. Her first attempt at a story was when she was seven years old and her mother got a new typewriter. DiVoran got to use it and when her dad saw her writing he asked what she was writing about. DiVoran answered that she was writing the story of her life. Her dad’s only comment was, “Well, it’s going to be a very short story.” After most of a lifetime of writing and helping other writers, DiVoran finally launched her own dream which was to write a novel of her own. She now has her Florida Springs trilogy and her novel, a Christian Western Romance, Go West available on Amazon. When speaking about her road to publication, she gives thanks to the Lord for all the people who helped her grow and learn.  She says, “I could never have done it by myself, but when I got going everything fell beautifully into place, and I was glad I had started on my dream.”

In your presence is fullness of joy:

At Your right hand are pleasures 

forevermore.

Blessings and Strength

My Take

1 Chronicles 4:10

Oh that you would bless me and enlarge my border, and that your hand might be with me, and You would keep me from evil so it might not hurt me! And God granted his request. 

Phil 4:13

I have strength for all things in Christ who empowers me.

I am ready for anything and equal to anything through him who infused inner strength into me,   

Sufficient in Christ’s sufficiency. 

Matthew 17:20

If you have faith (that is living) like a grain of mustard seed. You can say to this mountain. Move from this place, and it will move, and nothing will be impossible to you.

God Cares

31 Mar

My Take

DiVoran Lites

Psalm 147:1-11

Thought for the Day 

If little birds are important to God, how much more am I !

Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than them?

God’s Splendor

Lord, your name is so great and powerful!

Matthew 6:26

Lord, Your name is so great and powerful! People everywhere see Your splendor.

Your glorious majesty streams from the heavens,

Filling the earth with the fame of Your name! You have built a stronghold by the sons of babies, 

Strength rise up with the chorus of singing children. This kind of praise has the power to shut Satan’s mouth.

Childlike worship will silence 

The madness of those who oppose You.

Worship and Honor

10 Mar

My Take

Come worship, wonderful Yahweh,

Arrayed in all His splendor,

Bowing in worship as He appears in the beauty of holiness

Give Him the honor due His name. 

Worship Him wearing the glory-garments

Of your holy, priestly calling!

The voice of the Lord echoes through the skies and seas

The Glory-God reigns as He thunders in the clouds.

So powerful is His voice, so brilliant and bright.

How majestic as He thunders over the great waters.

Free and Secure

My Take

Matthew 8:17: He Himself took our infirmities and bore our sicknesses. 

Lord, I am healed in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth! Father I thank You that You sent Jesus to take my  sins and sickness away on the cross.  I am saved and by the stripes of Jesus I am healed. I will prosper and be in perfect health today even as my soul is saved and prospers.  

Your healing of body, soul, and spirit was completed when I was on the cross as a substitute for your punishment.

You are free and secure.

1 Peter 2:24: Jesus bore our sins that we, would live for righteousness. 

By those stripes you are healed.

I Choose to Trust

17 Feb

My Take

DiVorann Lites

Psalm 37:3

Lord, I choose to trust in You today, and I will see Your hand more upon my behalf. I shall feed upon Your faithfulness, and You will provide for me. I shall lack no good thing. Lord, I bless You and I thank You for all of the blessings, positions, and favor that You have given to me. You are my Shepherd and I shall not want. I choose to do good today.

Beloved my tender mercies are higher than the highest heavens. My steadfast love for you is greater than the grandeur of paradise.

You are mine and I am yours forever. My promises are secure. They last forever

“Trust in the Lord, and do good; Dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness.

Father, I thank You that I am led by Your Spirit, and I thank You that You have given to me the Holy Spirit who guides and teaches me. Lord, I am Your child. So I am led by Your Spirit. Lord, I thank You that the Holy Spirit is going to lead me today.

Beloved you are worth everything to me. I am in you, and the Holy Spirit surrounds you with angels to carry out my ministrations for you and those you pray for. You are my beloved children and  I am well pleased.

Romans 8:14: “For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.”

Are We Growing Old?

21 Jan

My Take

DiVoran Lites

Thou hast the dew of thy youth (Psalm 110.30)

“To be seventy years young is sometimes far more cheerful and hopeful than to be forty years old.” Oliver Wendell Holmes 

Old by Rabindranath Tagore from his collection titled “Fireflies.”

Life blooms as we travel on 

Up the hills, into fresh, lovely dawn,

We are children who do but begin

The sweetness of life to win.

Because heaven is in us, to bud and unfold,

We are younger for growing old!

We have a God who lives in Eternity and knows no age-limit.

God’s Splendor

30 Dec

My Take

DiVoran Lites

For the Pure and Shining One

Set to the melody of “For the Feast of 

Harvest” by King David

 

Lord, your name is so great and powerful!

People everywhere see your

Splendor;

Your glorious majesty streams from the heavens,

Filling the earth with the fame of your name!

 

You have built a stronghold by the songs of babies.

Strength rises up with the chorus of 

Singing children.

This kind of praise has the power to shut Satan’s mouth.

Childlike worship will silence

The madness of those who oppose you.
