Proverbs‬ ‭18 : 12

“Before a downfall the heart is haughty, but humility comes before honor.” ‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭18 : 12‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Are you on top of the world? Is life the best it’s ever been for you? Careful that’s when the enemy will come against you the hardest in my opinion. This proverb speaks of being haughty and humble, which are you? Today’s prayer is that we all would humble ourselves at the foot of our blessings and always stand guard against haughtiness for that will bring destruction ……. Be Blessed and Be Humble

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

YOUR LONGING FOR HEAVEN IS GOOD, because it is an extension of your yearning for GOD | ROMANS 8 : 23 – 25, HEBREWS 6 : 18 – 20, ROMANS 15 : 13

https://youtu.be/LSg-SqUAsk8

“YOUR LONGING FOR HEAVEN IS GOOD, because it is an extension of your yearning for GOD. The hope of heaven is meant to strengthen and encourage you, filling you with wondrous Joy. Many Christians have misunderstood this word hope, believing that it denotes wishful thinking. Nothing could be farther from the truth! As soon as The LORD, JESUS CHRIST became your Savior, heaven became your ultimate destination. The phrase hope of heaven highlights the benefits you can enjoy even while remaining on earth. This hope keeps you spiritually alive during dark times of adversity; it brightens your path and heightens your awareness of GOD’S Presence. GOD’S desire is that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.”

Scripture

Not only so, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies. For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what he already has? But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently. ROMANS 8 : 23 – 25 

God did this so that, by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the hope offered to us may be greatly encouraged. We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain. HEBREWS 6 : 18 – 20 

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. ROMANS 15 : 13

Prayers

Prayer: Lord, thank You for the hope of heaven that keeps my heart anchored in You. Let that sure hope strengthen me in hard moments and fill me with joy as I walk with You today. By Your Spirit, help me overflow with hope and be more aware of Your nearness. Amen.

John‬ ‭17 ‬: ‭22 – 23‬

“I have given them the glory you gave me, so they may be one as we are one. I am in them and you are in me. May they experience such perfect unity that the world will know that you sent me and that you love them as much as you love me. John‬ ‭17 ‬: ‭22 – 23‬ NLT

JESUS CHRIST said HE gave us perfect unity so that our witness will be different from the world, how is your witness working out? Do you respond to situations like someone who doesn’t know JESUS CHRIST? Or do you respond to the values of the promise HE gave us? Today I pray that our responses would be filled with faith and on the foundation of GOD’S living word and promise ….. 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 TAKING CARE OF YOU. | ROMANS 8 : 28, JOB 42 : 1 – 3, 1 PETER 5 : 7

https://youtu.be/4pdFe9C7ZAM

“GOD IS TAKING CARE OF YOU. Feel the warmth and security of being enveloped in GOD’S loving Presence. Every detail of your life is under HIS control. Moreover, everything fits into a pattern for good, to those who love The LORD and are called according to HIS design and purpose. Because the world is in an abnormal, fallen condition, people tend to think that chance governs the universe. Events may seem to occur randomly, with little or no meaning. People who view the world this way have overlooked one basic fact: the limitations of human understanding. What you know of the world you inhabit is only the tip of the iceberg. Submerged beneath the surface of the visible world are mysteries too vast for you to comprehend. If you could only see how close GOD is to you and how constantly GOD works on your behalf, you would never again doubt that GOD is wonderfully caring for you. This is why you must live by faith, not by sight; trusting in The LORD’S mysterious, majestic Presence.”

Scripture

And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. ROMANS 8 : 28

Then Job replied to the LORD : “I know that you can do all things; no plan of yours can be thwarted. You asked, ‘Who is this that obscures my counsel without knowledge?’ Surely I spoke of things I did not understand, things too wonderful for me to know.” JOB 42 : 1 – 3 

Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. 1 PETER 5 : 7

Prayer

Prayer: Lord help me to see and feel how close you are and how you are constantly working for my good and for your glory. Thank you for giving me three best friends with me at all times – God the Father, Jesus, and The Holy Spirit. Help me to rely more on you more today. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

1‭ John‬ ‭4 : 4‬

“You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.” 1‭ John‬ ‭4 : 4‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Do you ever feel like you’re not good enough? Like you don’t measure up? Well you never will by the world’s standards! This scripture reminds us that The Holy Spirit who lives in us has overcome all things! Today’s prayer is that when depression, unworthiness, wanting to give up comes upon us, turn to The LORD not the world!!!!  ….. 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

Colossians‬ ‭3 : 5

“Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and greed, which is idolatry.” ‭‭Colossians‬ ‭3 : 5‬ ‭NIV‬‬

How many things do you put before GOD? If there is one then there is a problem! The world will bring the flesh out of each one of us but the spirit’s needs prevail!!!! Today’s prayer is that we would all put our desires aside and get back to the basics, get back to GOD!!!!! HE is there and our lives will be much better in HIS presence ….. 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

Philippians‬ ‭4‬ :‭ 11‬

Not that I was ever in need, for I have learned how to be content with whatever I have. ‭Philippians‬ ‭4‬ :‭ 11‬ NLT

Like Paul we should always be content in the current situation we are in. Paul lived a life that by today’s standards would be all over the map, he killed Christians, arrested the Christians, but yet GOD called him in the highest way. Today I pray that we would all be content with where we are, not complacent but content because GOD has a greater plan for 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 WORKING ON YOUR BEHALF. | PSALM 36 : 9, GENESIS 21 : 1 – 2, 6 – 7, HEBREWS 11 : 1

https://youtu.be/NDSjO6byazs

“GOD IS WORKING ON YOUR BEHALF. Bring GOD all your concerns, including your dreams. Talk with The LORD about everything, letting the Light of HIS Presence shine on your hopes and plans. Spend time allowing The LORD’S Light to infuse your dreams with life, gradually transforming them into reality. This is a very practical way of collaborating with The LORD. GOD, the Creator of the universe, has deigned to co-create with you. Do not try to hurry this process. If you want to work with GOD, you have to accept HIS time frame. Hurry is not in The LORD’S nature. Abraham and Sarah had to wait many years for the fulfillment of GOD’S promise, a son. How their long wait intensified their enjoyment of this child! Faith is the assurance of things hoped for, perceiving as real fact what is not revealed to the senses.”

Scripture

For with you is the fountain of life; in your light we see light. PSALM 36 : 9

Now the LORD was gracious to Sarah as he had said, and the LORD did for Sarah what he had promised. Sarah became pregnant and bore a son to Abraham in his old age, at the very time God had promised him. Sarah said, “God has brought me laughter, and everyone who hears about this will laugh with me.” And she added, “Who would have said to Abraham that Sarah would nurse children? Yet I have borne him a son in his old age.” GENESIS 21 : 1 – 2, 6 – 7

Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. HEBREWS 11 : 1

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, Thank You for working in ways I can’t always see. Teach me to bring every hope and plan to You, trusting Your timing and Your wisdom. Strengthen my faith as I wait, believing You are shaping things for my good and Your glory. Amen

John‬ ‭10‬ :‭ 10‬

The thief’s purpose is to steal and kill and destroy. My purpose is to give them a rich and satisfying life. John‬ ‭10‬ :‭ 10‬

Are you letting someone or something steal your joy? Are you letting the circumstance control you? Well don’t!!! The devil works in and through many situations so let your joy always trump the situation. Today I pray that our attitudes will always look to the blessings we experience everyday and not the temporary problems …… In Jesus Name 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

MAKE GOD THE FOCAL POINT of your search for security. | ISAIAH 41 : 10, PSALM 139 : 10, JAMES 1 : 2

https://youtu.be/BuwtBL0lJts

“MAKE GOD THE FOCAL POINT of your search for security. In your private thoughts, you are still trying to order your world so that it is predictable and feels safe. Not only is this an impossible goal, but it is also counterproductive to spiritual growth. When your private world feels unsteady and you grip The LORD’S hand for support, you are living in conscious dependence on GOD. Instead of yearning for a problem-free life, rejoice that trouble can highlight your awareness of GOD’S Presence. In the darkness of adversity, you are able to see more clearly the radiance of The LORD’S Face. Accept the value of problems in this life, considering them pure joy. Remember that you have an eternity of trouble-free living awaiting you in heaven.”

Scripture

“So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” ISAIAH 41 : 10 

Even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast. PSALM 139 : 10 

Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds. JAMES 1 : 2

Prayer

Prayer: Jesus, help me stop chasing security in things I can manage and instead anchor my confidence in You. When challenges press in, steady me with Your nearness and let Your light shine even in the dark places. Give me a heart that grows through trials and looks ahead with hope to the forever peace You’ve prepared.
