AS YOU WAIT ATTENTIVELY IN GOD’S Presence, the Light of the knowledge of The LORD’S Glory shines upon you.  | 2 CORINTHIANS 4 : 6,  PHILIPPIANS 2 : 6 – 7, LUKE 2 : 13 – 14, 2 CORINTHIANS 8 : 9

https://youtu.be/WnReLK6Ambk

“AS YOU WAIT attentively in GOD’S Presence, the Light of the knowledge of The LORD’S Glory shines upon you. This radiant knowledge transcends all understanding. It transforms every fiber of your being: renewing your mind, cleansing your heart, invigorating your body. Open yourself fully to GOD’S Presence; be awed by HIS glorious Being. Try to imagine what The LORD gave up when HE came to earth as a baby. The LORD, JESUS CHRIST set aside HIS Glory, so that HE could identify with mankind. The LORD accepted the limitations of infancy under the most humble conditions — a stable. Angels lit up the sky proclaiming “Glory!” to awe-struck shepherds. As you sit quietly with GOD, Heaven’s vistas open up before you — granting you glimpses of GOD’S Glory. The LORD, JESUS CHRIST became poor so that you might become rich. Sing hallelujahs to HIS holy Name!” 

Scripture

For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ. 2 CORINTHIANS 4 : 6 

Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. PHILIPPIANS 2 : 6 – 7 

Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests.” LUKE 2 : 13 – 14 

For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, so that you through his poverty might become rich. 2 CORINTHIANS 8 : 9

Prayer

Prayer: Lord Jesus, as I wait quietly with You, let the truth of who You are renew my mind and steady my heart. Thank You for humbling Yourself to come near, giving up glory so I could receive life and hope. Fill me with gratitude and praise as I rest in Your presence today. Amen

‭Matthew ‭2 ‬: ‭10 – 11‬

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 CHRIST was receiving gifts, the greatest gift we can give HIM is our worship, give HIM ourselves completely. Today I pray on the day of our Savior’s birth that we give The LORD, JESUS CHRIST our complete worship and thank HIM for all The LORD 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. | PSALM 90 : 2, COLOSSIANS 1 : 27, COLOSSIANS 3 : 15

https://youtu.be/ZG94nojh154

“GOD SPEAKS TO YOU from the depths of eternity. Before the world was formed, GOD WAS! You hear GOD in the depths of your being, where The LORD has taken up residence. The LORD is JESUS CHRIST in you, the hope of Glory. JESUS CHRIST, your Lord and Savior, is alive within you. Learn to tune in to JESUS CHRIST’S living Presence by seeking HIM in silence. As you celebrate the wonder of JESUS CHRIST’S birth in Bethlehem, celebrate also your rebirth into eternal life. This everlasting gift was the sole purpose of JESUS CHRIST entering this 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 The LORD’S glorious gift. Let GOD’S Peace rule in your heart, and be thankful.”

Scripture

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

Prayer: Lord Jesus, thank You for living within me and for the gift of new life You gave through Your coming into this world. Help me slow down, listen for You, and respond with humility and gratitude for the depth of Your love. Let Your peace rule my heart today as I live thankful and aware of Your presence.

‭‭Matthew ‭6 ‬:‭ 2 ‬- ‭4

“So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.” ‭‭Matthew ‭6 ‬:‭ 2 ‬- ‭4‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Blessed to be a Blessing!!! One of my favorite sayings. Helping someone in need is a critical part of our lives as believers, but helping and telling everyone what you did kind of discounts the whole purpose. Today’s prayer is that we would help others in need to the best of our ability and let GOD be the only one who sees ….. 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 KING OF KINGS and Lord of lords, dwelling in dazzlingly bright Light!  | 1 TIMOTHY 6 : 15 – 16, PSALM 95 : 6 – 7, ROMANS 8 : 32, 2 PETER 1 : 19

https://youtu.be/a7XLvequK5o

“GOD IS KING OF KINGS and Lord of lords, dwelling in dazzlingly bright Light! GOD is also your Shepherd, Companion, and Friend — The One who never lets go of your hand. Worship GOD in HIS holy Majesty; come close to The LORD, and rest in HIS Presence. You need THE LORD both as GOD and as Man. Only The LORD, JESUS CHRIST’S Incarnation on that first, long-ago Christmas could fulfill your neediness. Since JESUS 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. JESUS CHRIST has held back nothing in HIS provision for you. THE LORD has even deigned to live within you! Rejoice in all that The LORD has done for you, and GOD’S Light will shine through you into the world.”

Scripture

. . . 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

Prayer:  Lord Jesus, You are King of kings and also my close Shepherd and Friend, and I worship You with gratitude and awe. Thank You for coming near to save me and for holding nothing back in Your love and provision. Help me trust You fully and let Your light shine through my life today.

‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭6 ‬: ‭1 – 2

As God’s partners, we beg you not to accept this marvelous gift of God’s kindness and then ignore it. For God says, “At just the right time, I heard you. On the day of salvation, I helped you.” Indeed, the “right time” is now. Today is the day of salvation. ‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭6 ‬: ‭1 – 2‬ NLT

Is today that day? Do you have a friend or loved one that doesn’t know The LORD ? We’ll today is that day. We as Christians can not save people, but can be used as a conduit for GOD to reach the unsaved. Our job is to witness by our actions, the love we show, and not only what we do when others are watching, but when they’re not. GOD has a use for each and everyone of us!!!! Ask HIM to show you. Today I pray that we would boldly witness to all that are unsaved and on a road to destruction and make today that day for someone…… In JESUS CHRIST 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

COME TO GOD, and rest in HIS Presence. | LUKE 1 : 35, JOHN 1 : 14, MATTHEW 2 : 9 – 11

https://youtu.be/TMJ9vQ0qB_Y

“COME TO GOD, and rest in HIS Presence. As you ponder the majestic mystery of the Incarnation, relax in The LORD’S everlasting arms. The LORD, JESUS CHRIST is the only Person who was ever sired by the Holy Spirit. This is beyond your understanding. Instead of trying to comprehend JESUS CHRIST’S Incarnation intellectually, learn from the example of the wise men. They followed the leading of a spectacular star, then fell down in humble worship when they found The LORD. Praise and worship are the best responses to the wonder of HIS Being. Sing praises to HIS Holy Name. Gaze at The LORD in silent adoration. Look for a star of guidance in your own life, and be willing to follow wherever GOD leads. The LORD is the Light from on high that dawns upon you, to guide your feet into the way of Peace.”

Scripture

The angel answered, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called the Son of God.” LUKE 1 : 35 

The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth. JOHN 1 : 14 

When they heard the king, they departed; and behold, the star which they had seen in the East went before them, till it came and stood over where the young Child was. When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy. And when they had come into the house, they saw the young Child with Mary His mother, and fell down and worshiped Him. And when they had opened their treasures, they presented gifts to Him: gold, frankincense, and myrrh. MATTHEW 2 : 9 – 11 (NKJV)

Prayer

Prayer: Lord Jesus, I come to You and rest in Your presence, choosing worship over trying to understand everything. Like the wise men, help me follow Your guidance with humility and trust, and respond with praise and quiet adoration. Lead my steps today in the way of Your peace. Amen.

John‬ ‭ 17‬ :‭ 20 – 21

“I am praying not only for these disciples but also for all who will ever believe in me through their message. I pray that they will all be one, just as you and I are one—as you are in me, Father, and I am in you. And may they be in us so that the world will believe you sent me. John‬ ‭ 17‬ :‭ 20 – 21‬ NLT

As JESUS CHRIST was in the garden praying, knowing that HIS time had come, not only was HE praying for HIS believers, but also the whole world. As JESUS CHRIST hung on the cross HE prayed forgiveness to those who put HIM there, WOW !!!! oh to have that kind of forgiveness in our hearts. Today I pray that we all would pray for the world ( believers) and (non believers) and have the same forgiveness that JESUS CHRIST showed for all …….. Be Blessed and Pray Hard

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

DO NOT BE WEIGHED DOWN by the clutter in your life: lots of little chores to do sometime, in no particular order.  | PROVERBS 16 : 3, MATTHEW 6 : 33

https://youtu.be/9_EqhuRzK8k

“DO NOT BE WEIGHED DOWN by the clutter in your life: lots of little chores to do sometime, in no particular order. If you focus too much on these petty tasks, trying to get them all out of the way, you will discover that they are endless. They can eat up as much time as you devote to them. Instead of trying to do all your chores at once, choose the ones that need to be done today. Let the rest slip into the background of your mind, so GOD can be in the forefront of your awareness. Remember that your ultimate goal is living close to The LORD, being responsive to HIS initiatives. GOD can communicate with you most readily when your mind is uncluttered and turned toward HIM. Seek The LORD’S Face continually throughout this day. Let GOD’S Presence bring order to your thoughts, infusing Peace into your entire being.”

Scripture

Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and your plans will succeed. PROVERBS 16 : 3

“But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.” MATTHEW 6 : 33

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, help me not get weighed down by all the little tasks competing for my attention. Show me what truly needs to be done today, and keep my focus on walking closely with You and being responsive to your promptings. Bring order to my thoughts and fill me with Your peace as I move through this day. Amen.
