“For He rescued us from the domain of darkness, and transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.” Colossians 1:13-14 NASB
Remember when you didn’t belong to Jesus? Your life had a very trivial meaning. The life you lived in sin was destined for an eternity of doom!! But now you have a life of eternity in heaven. Today’s prayer is that we would always give thanks to God for the precious gift that he has given us…….Be Blessed
Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new 2 Corinthians 5:17
“GOD IS YOUR REFUGE AND STRENGTH, an ever-present Help in trouble. Therefore, you don’t need to be afraid of anything—not even cataclysmic circumstances. The media are increasingly devoted to fear-inducing subject matter: terrorism, serial killers, environmental catastrophes. If you focus on such dangers and forget that GOD is your Refuge in all circumstances, you will become increasingly fearful. Every day GOD manifests HIS grace in countless places and situations, but the media takes no notice. GOD showers not only blessings but also outright miracles on our planet. As you grow closer to GOD, HE opens your eyes to see more and more of HIS Presence all around you. Things that most people hardly notice, like shifting shades of sunlight, fill you with heart-bursting Joy. You have eyes that see and ears that hear, so proclaim GOD’S abiding Presence in the world. God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.”
Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging. PSALM 46 : 1 – 3
Blessed are those who have learned to acclaim you, who walk in the light of your presence, O LORD. PSALM 89 : 15
Prayer: Lord no matter what troubles come my way, it is only temporary. For my light and momentary troubles are molding me to look more and more like Christ. Thank you for being my ever-present refuge and strength on the mountain top and in the valley. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
“Don’t be afraid, O land. Be glad now and rejoice, for the Lord has done great things.” Joel 2:21 NLT
The condition of the world makes us think there is no hope! But in reality there is nothing but hope, God has done a great work in the land and in us. Today’s prayer is that no matter how bad it looks, remember God has blessed us with all that we need and our great hope is in Jesus…….Be Blessed
Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new 2 Corinthians 5:17
“GOD IS PREPARING YOU for what is on the road ahead, just around the bend. Take time to be still in GOD’S Presence so that HE can strengthen you. The busier you become, the more you need this time apart with The LORD. So many people think that time spent with GOD is a luxury they cannot afford. As a result, they live and work in their own strength—until that becomes depleted. Then they either cry out to GOD for help or turn away in bitterness. How much better it is to walk close to The LORD, depending on HIS strength and trusting GOD in every situation. If you live in this way, you will do less but accomplish far more. Your unhurried pace of living will stand out in this rush-crazed age. Some people may deem you lazy, but many more will be blessed by your peacefulness. Walk in the Light with GOD, and you will reflect GOD to the watching world.”
Since ancient times no one has heard, no ear has perceived, no eye has seen any God besides you, who acts on behalf of those who wait for him. ISAIAH 64 : 4
“I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.” JOHN 15 : 5
For with you is the fountain of life; in your light we see light. PSALM 36 : 9
Prayer: Lord help me to make time to be still in your presence so that you can strengthen me. Help me to walk slowly enough to experience Jesus fully and love people deeply. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
“For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all men,” Titus 2:11 NASB
Not one of us is different when it comes to the opportunity of receiving salvation. The difference begins when we choose to reject what Christ did on the Cross. Jesus died that day so that all of us could be set free from the bondage and sin that we were born into, the sad truth is that many will reject the opportunity. Today’s prayer is that we would be a living testimony to what our salvation has done and is doing in our lives every single day……Be Blessed
Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new 2 Corinthians 5:17
The Savior—yes, the Messiah, the Lord—has been born today in Bethlehem, the city of David! Luke 2:11 NLT
Today is not only a day of presents and time with family but most importantly it’s about celebrating the birth of our Lord and Savior. Today’s prayer is that we all have a day of peace and joy with our loved ones and reflect on the true meaning of why we celebrate Christmas….. Merry Christmas to all and Be Blessed
Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new 2 Corinthians 5:17
When they saw the star, they were filled with joy! They entered the house and saw the child with his mother, Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him. Then they opened their treasure chests and gave him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. Matthew 2:10-11
From his first hours Jesus was receiving gifts, the greatest gift we can give him is our worship, give him ourselves completely. Today I pray on the eve of our Savior’s birth that we give him our complete worship and thank him for all he has done in our lives…….Be Blessed
Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new 2 Corinthians 5:17
“GOD SPEAKS TO YOU from the depths of eternity. Before the world was formed, GOD was there. You hear The LORD in the depths of your being, where HE has taken up residence. The LORD is Christ in you, the hope of Glory. JESUS CHRIST, your Lord and Savior, is alive within you. Learn to tune in to GOD’S living Presence by seeking HIM in silence. As you celebrate the wonder of CHRIST The LORD’S birth in Bethlehem, celebrate also your rebirth into eternal life. This everlasting gift was the sole purpose of JESUS CHRIST entering your sin-stained world. Receive The LORD’S gift with awe and humility. Take time to explore the vast dimensions of GOD’S Love. Allow thankfulness to flow freely from your heart in response to HIS glorious gift. Let GOD’S Peace rule in your heart, and be thankful.”
Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever you had formed the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God. PSALM 90 : 2
To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. COLOSSIANS 1 : 27
Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. COLOSSIANS 3 : 15
Prayer: Lord help me to tune into your living presence by seeking you in silence. Thank you for sending your son to make the ultimate sacrifice so I could be with you for eternity. This Christmas help me to keep my eyes focused on Jesus and gratitude for what he did. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
“THE LORD IS KING OF KINGS and Lord of lords, dwelling in dazzlingly bright Light! JESUS CHRIST is also your Shepherd, Companion, and Friend—the One who never lets go of your hand. Worship The LORD in HIS Holy Majesty; come close to CHRIST, and rest in HIS Presence. You need CHRIST The LORD both as God and as Man. Only JESUS CHRIST’S Incarnation on that first, long-ago Christmas could fulfill your neediness. Since CHRIST went to such extreme measures to save you from your sins, you can be assured that HE will graciously give you all you need. Nurture well your trust in The LORD as Savior, Lord, and Friend. CHRIST has held back nothing in HIS provision for you. The LORD has even deigned to live within you! Rejoice in all that CHRIST The LORD has done for you, and HIS Light will shine through you into the world.”
. . . which God will bring about in his own time—God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords, who alone is immortal and who lives in unapproachable light, whom no one has seen or can see. To him be honor and might forever. Amen. 1 TIMOTHY 6 : 15 – 16
Come, let us bow down in worship, let us kneel before the LORD our Maker; for he is our God and we are the people of his pasture, the flock under his care. PSALM 95 : 6 – 7
He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all— how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things? ROMANS 8 : 32
And we have the word of the prophets made more certain, and you will do well to pay attention to it, as to a light shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts. 2 PETER 1 : 19
Prayer: Lord thank you for being my King and my closest most trusted friend. Thank you for generously giving me all I need. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
“In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him. In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.” 1 John 4:9-10 NKJV
It’s two days before Christmas and all is well with our souls. This scripture talks about how we did not love God but he loved us!!! He loved us so much that he gave his only Son Jesus. Today’s prayer is that we would always show our love for our Lord, do our best to live a life that is pleasing to God and let the Holy Spirit guide our ways……Be Blessed
