How do people view you? Are you kind and caring? Do you lend a helping hand when it’s needed? Today I pray we would all put this proverb to work and be kind and helpful to all we can…..Be Blessed

Circumstances can consume your day and even your life. The key to peace is were it comes from. The Lord is the only true peace we have, to trust and depend on him is key.

The words of the Lord God of Israel to Jeremiah his prophet who would announce God’s coming judgments and punishments on the kingdoms of Judah and Israel due to their multi-generational rebellion against God: Jeremiah 1:4-8 NKJV
Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying: “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; Before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations.” Then said I: “Ah, Lord GOD! Behold, I cannot speak, for I am a youth.” But the LORD said to me: “Do not say, ‘I am a youth,’ For you shall go to all to whom I send you, And whatever I command you, you shall speak. Do not be afraid of their faces, For I am with you to deliver you,” says the LORD.
God knew all of us before we were even born. He claimed us as his own, and has great plans for us. For those plans to be fulfilled we must honor God, keep his commandments, fill the world with his message, and keep our hearts pure. If not the spiritual joy and relationship he reserves for us can not exist and we will walk in darkness and shame. Be strong and courageous, encourage one another, and keep the faith. Amen!!

Jesus spoke of false prophets in Biblical times and even though a different group they are one and the same!!!! Today’s prayer is that we would let the Spirit of God decipher the truth from the lie!!!!! Be Blessed

“GOD IS YOURS FOR ALL ETERNITY. GOD is the Alpha and the Omega: the One who is and was and is to come. The world you inhabit is a place of constant changes—more than your mind can absorb without going into shock. Even the body you inhabit is changing relentlessly, in spite of modern science’s attempts to prolong youth and life indefinitely. The LORD Jesus Christ, however, is the same yesterday and today and forever. Because The LORD will never change, your relationship with GOD provides a rock-solid foundation for your life. Christ The LORD will never leave your side. When you move on from this life to the next, Jesus Christ’s Presence beside you will shine brighter with each step. You have nothing to fear, because The LORD is with you for all time and throughout eternity.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

In the beginning you laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands. They will perish, but you remain; they will all wear out like a garment. Like clothing you will change them and they will be discarded. But you remain the same, and your years will never end. PSALM 102 : 25 – 27
For this God is our God for ever and ever; he will be our guide even to the end. PSALM 48 : 14

“LEARN TO ENJOY LIFE MORE. Relax, remembering that GOD is with you. The LORD crafted you with enormous capacity to know HIM and enjoy HIS Presence. When The LORD’S people wear sour faces and walk through their lives with resigned rigidity, The LORD is displeased. When you walk through a day with childlike delight, savoring every blessing, you proclaim your trust in The LORD, your ever-present Shepherd. The more you focus on GOD’S Presence with you, the more fully you can enjoy life. Glorify GOD through your pleasure in HIM. Thus you proclaim The LORD’S Presence to the watching world.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

“The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge, But fools despise wisdom and instruction.” Proverbs 1:7 NKJV
Fear of the Lord is not too be afraid of him but to be afraid of disappointing him! Gods grace saved us from eternal hell and to not know the difference between Grace and garbage is death.

“COME TO GOD when you are weak and weary. Rest snugly in GOD’S everlasting arms. GOD does not despise your weakness, You are HIS child. Actually, it draws GOD closer to you, because weakness stirs up GOD’S compassion — HIS yearning to help. Accept yourself in your weariness, knowing that GOD understands how difficult your journey has been. Do not compare yourself with others, who seem to skip along their life-paths with ease. Their journeys have been different from yours, and GOD has gifted them with abundant energy. GOD has gifted you with fragility, providing opportunities for your spirit to blossom in HIS Presence. Accept this gift as a sacred treasure: delicate, yet glowing with brilliant Light. Rather than struggling to disguise or deny your weakness, allow GOD to bless you richly through it.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
A bruised reed he will not break, and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out. In faithfulness he will bring forth justice. ISAIAH 42 : 3

“A wise man will hear and increase learning, And a man of understanding will attain wise counsel,” Proverbs 1:5 NKJV
Have you ever met that “know it all person”? That “been there done that person” I think we all have, and I think we all have been that person to some extent at some point. To be wise is to be humble and continue too learn, to have been there done that is too take a life lesson out of each experience and see if we are using it too Glorify God! Today’s prayer is too apply this Proverb to our lives and pray for the wisdom of Solomon……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
“COME TO GOD. Come to GOD. Come to GOD. This is GOD’S continual invitation to you, proclaimed in holy whispers. When your heart and mind are quiet, you can hear GOD inviting you to draw near. Coming close to GOD requires no great effort on your part; it is more like ceasing to resist the magnetic pull of HIS Love. Open yourself to GOD’S loving Presence, so that HE may fill you with HIS fullness. GOD wants you to experience how wide and long and high and deep is HIS Love for you, so that you can know HIS Love that surpasses knowledge. This vast ocean of Love cannot be measured or explained, but it can be experienced.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

All that the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never drive away. JOHN 6 : 37

EPHESIANS 3 : 16 – 19
