WORSHIP GOD ONLY. – EXODUS 20 : 4 – 5, 2 SAMUEL 22 : 29

https://youtu.be/7Ibz8fegFoE

“WORSHIP GOD ONLY. Idolatry has always been the downfall of GOD’S people. GOD makes no secrets about being a jealous God. Current idols are more subtle than ancient ones, because today’s false gods are often outside the field of religion. People, possessions, status, and self-aggrandizement are some of the most popular deities today. Beware of bowing down before these things. False gods never satisfy; instead, they stir up lust for more and more. When you seek The LORD instead of the world’s idols, you experience The LORD’S Joy and Peace. These intangibles satisfy the thirst of your soul, providing deep satisfaction. The glitter of the world is tinny and temporal. The Light of GOD’S Presence is brilliant and everlasting. Walk in the Light with GOD. Thus you become a beacon through whom others are drawn to The LORD.”

Scripture

“You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me.” EXODUS 20 : 4 – 5

You are my lamp, O LORD; the LORD turns my darkness into light. 2 SAMUEL 22 : 29

Prayer

Prayer: Lord help me to seek you instead of the world’s idols. In your presence is fullness of joy. Only you can truly satisfy me. All else will fall short. Show me any area of my life I need to de-throne and surrender to you. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

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

RELAX IN GOD’S PEACEFUL PRESENCE. – PSALM 25 : 14, JOHN 15 : 13 – 15

https://youtu.be/hhHXYbPKdPs

“RELAX IN GOD’S PEACEFUL PRESENCE. Do not bring performance pressures into your sacred space of communion with GOD. When you are with someone you trust completely, you feel free to be yourself. This is one of the joys of true friendship. Though GOD is Lord of lords and King of kings, GOD also desires to be your intimate Friend. When you are tense or pretentious in your relationship, The LORD feels hurt. HE knows the worst about you, but GOD also sees the best in you. The LORD longs for you to trust HIM enough to be fully yourself with HIM. When you are real with GOD, GOD is able to bring out the best in you: the very gifts HE has planted in your soul. Relax, and enjoy your friendship with The LORD.”

Scripture

The friendship of the LORD is for those who fear him, and he makes known to them his covenant. PSALM 25 : 14

Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends if you do what I command. I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you. JOHN 15 : 13 – 15

Prayer

Prayer: God help me to be completely myself and open as I spend time with you. Ready for what you have for me each day. I’m in awe that the creator of the universe, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords wants to be my intimate friend. What a privilege and an honor. Help me to take you up on that special offer. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭4:16

“That is why we never give up. Though our bodies are dying, our spirits are being renewed every day.” ‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭4:16‬ ‭NLT‬‬

As we get older the mind says it’s easy to give up! But as Christians we should know these vessels are just temporary. The daily renewing of the spirit is what we should bank on! And the only way to renew is to stay in the Word. Today I pray that all would start their day by at least spending 30 minutes in God’s Word and see if the difference not only applies to your attitude but also your health and well being……Be Blessed and read The Bible.

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

TRUST GOD IN ALL YOUR THOUGHTS. – PSALM 20 : 7, 1 JOHN 1 : 9, LUKE 1 : 79

https://youtu.be/k7e2J3RFM0Q

“TRUST GOD IN ALL YOUR THOUGHTS. GOD knows that some thoughts are unconscious or semiconscious, and GOD does not hold you responsible for those. But you can direct conscious thoughts much more than you may realize. Practice thinking in certain ways—trusting GOD, thanking GOD — and those thoughts become more natural. Reject negative or sinful thoughts as soon as you become aware of them. Don’t try to hide them from The LORD; confess them and leave them with HIM. Go on your way lightheartedly. This method of controlling your thoughts will keep your mind in GOD’S Presence and your feet on the path of Peace.”

Scripture

Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the LORD our God. PSALM 20 : 7

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. 1 JOHN 1 : 9

. . . to shine on those living in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the path of peace.” LUKE 1 : 79

Prayer

Prayer: God guide my feet and my thoughts into the path of peace. Help me to practice trusting you and thanking you more and more. You are in control, I surrender. Nothing is a surprise to you. I trust your plan, Jesus. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

1 Chronicles‬ ‭29 ‬: ‭13

“O our God, we thank you and praise your glorious name! 1 Chronicles‬ ‭29 ‬: ‭13‬ NLT

Short and sweet, are we thanking God and praising God in all situations? The good and the bad? For the good is a favor and the bad is a test for your Testimony. Today’s prayer is that we all thank God in all situations, thank him for all he has and will…….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 YOU SEEK GOD’S FACE, put aside thoughts of everything else. – JOHN 15 : 11, 1 CORINTHIANS 13 : 12

https://youtu.be/pKC24yQc9Tw

“WHEN YOU SEEK GOD’S FACE, put aside thoughts of everything else. GOD is above all, as well as in all; your communion with GOD transcends both time and circumstances. Be prepared to be blessed bountifully by The LORD’S Presence, for The LORD is GOD of unlimited abundance. Open wide your heart and mind to receive more and more of The LORD. When your Joy in GOD meets HIS Joy in you, there are fireworks of heavenly ecstasy. This is eternal life here and now: a tiny foretaste of what awaits you in the life to come. Now you see only a poor reflection as in a mirror, but then you will see face to Face.”

Scripture

“I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete.” JOHN 15 : 11

Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. 1 CORINTHIANS 13 : 12

Prayer

Prayer: God when I spend time with you, help me to put aside thoughts of everything else and allow your presence to bless me. May my joy in you meet your joy in me and ignite fireworks in my heart. Thank you for this tiny foretaste of eternal life with you in Heaven. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Matthew 19 : 26

But Jesus looked at them and said to them, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.” Matthew 19 : 26 NKJV

Anytime we trust in ourselves we then chance failure, the flesh wants what is easiest and we tend to take short cuts. Seek God in all you do for he has great things in store for your marriage, job, finances, etc….. If you put God first your choices and decisions will be filled with wisdom……. 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

DRAW NEAR TO The LORD with a thankful heart, aware that your cup is overflowing with blessings – ROMANS 8 : 38 – 39, PSALM 56 : 3 – 4, ISAIAH 43 : 19

https://youtu.be/2Tc4pTTLWx4

“DRAW NEAR TO The LORD with a thankful heart, aware that your cup is overflowing with blessings. Gratitude enables you to perceive GOD more clearly and to rejoice in your Love-relationship. Nothing can separate you from The LORD’S loving Presence! That is the basis of your security. Whenever you start to feel anxious, remind yourself that your security rests in GOD alone, and GOD is totally trustworthy. You will never be in control of your life circumstances, but you can relax and trust in GOD’S control. Instead of striving for a predictable, safe lifestyle, seek to know The LORD in greater depth and breadth. GOD longs to make your life a glorious adventure, but you must stop clinging to old ways. The LORD is always doing something new within HIS beloved ones. Be on the lookout for all that GOD has prepared for you.”

Scripture

For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. ROMANS 8 : 38 – 39

When I am afraid, I will trust in you. In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I will not be afraid. What can mortal man do to me? PSALM 56 : 3 – 4

See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the desert and streams in the wasteland. ISAIAH 43 : 19

Prayer

Prayer: Lord help me not to strive for a predictable, safe life, but instead follow you with all my heart, mind, soul, and strength in the glorious adventure you planned in advance for me. All for your glory. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Job‬ ‭19‬:‭25‬

“But as for me, I know that my Redeemer lives, and he will stand upon the earth at last. Job‬ ‭19‬ : ‭25‬ NLT

We have so many things that we hope for, that we dream about, that we pray for, but the reality is all of those things are temporary. The promise that we have of our Lord’s return is eternal….. Today I pray that we all will not lose sight of the return of Jesus, nice things are great but nothing compared to the eternal promise of Heaven…..Be Blessed & Be A Blessing

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
