DO NOT EXPECT to be treated fairly in this life. – COLOSSIANS 3 : 13, ISAIAH 61 : 10, EPHESIANS 1 : 7 – 8, ROMANS 5 : 5

“DO NOT EXPECT to be treated fairly in this life. People will say and do hurtful things to you, things that you don’t deserve. When someone mistreats you, try to view it as an opportunity to grow in grace. See how quickly you can forgive the one who has wounded you. Don’t be concerned about setting the record straight. Instead of obsessing about other people’s opinions of you, keep your focus on GOD. Ultimately, it is GOD’S view of you that counts. As you concentrate on relating to GOD, remember that The LORD has clothed you in HIS righteousness and holiness. The LORD sees you attired in these radiant garments, which The LORD, JESUS CHRIST bought for you with HIS blood. This also is not fair; it is a pure gift. When others treat you unfairly, remember that GOD’S ways with you are much better than fair. GOD’S ways are Peace and Love, which The LORD has poured out into your heart by HIS Holy Spirit.”

Scripture

Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. COLOSSIANS 3 : 13

I delight greatly in the LORD; my soul rejoices in my God. For he has clothed me with garments of salvation and arrayed me in a robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom adorns his head like a priest, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels. ISAIAH 61 : 10

In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace that he lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding. EPHESIANS 1 : 7 – 8

And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us. ROMANS 5 : 5

Prayer

Prayer: Lord when I am treated unfairly, help me to see it as an opportunity to grow in grace. And to remember how unfair you were treated on the cross. You did that for me. Thank you Jesus. I am eternally grateful. In the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.

    ‭‭Romans‬ ‭13 : 11‬

    “This is all the more urgent, for you know how late it is; time is running out. Wake up, for our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed.”
    ‭‭Romans‬ ‭13 : 11‬ ‭NLT‬‬

    When you first became a Christian remember that feeling of satisfaction you had? That completeness that you felt inside? The feeling that Jesus was right there with you every step of the way? Do you still feel that feeling? If you don’t it’s time to wake up and realize that nothing has changed! You have changed, the world events have changed, but Jesus never changes!!! He is the same yesterday and today and tomorrow. Today’s prayer is that we would all re embrace that feeling we first had as believers, Jesus is there and he will always be there through any trial or tribulation, wake up that lion that lives on your inside…….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 LORD IS GOD WITH YOU, for all time and throughout eternity. – MATTHEW 1 : 21, 23, ACTS 2 : 28

    “THE LORD IS GOD WITH YOU, for all time and throughout eternity. Don’t let the familiarity of that concept numb its impact on your consciousness. The LORD’S perpetual Presence with you can be a continual source of Joy, springing up and flowing out in streams of abundant Life. Let your mind reverberate with meanings of The LORD, JESUS CHRIST’S Names: Jesus—the Lord saves, and Emmanuel—God with us. Strive to remain conscious of GOD’S Presence even in your busiest moments. Talk with CHRIST The LORD about whatever delights you, whatever upsets you, whatever is on your mind. These tiny steps of daily discipline, taken one after the other, will keep you close to GOD on the path of Life.”

    Scripture

    “She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.” . . . “The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel”—which means, “God with us.” MATTHEW 1 : 21, 23

    “You have made known to me the paths of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence.” ACTS 2 : 28

    Prayer

    Prayer: God help me never to let the familiarity of Jesus’ sacrifice numb its impact. We love you because you first loved us. You proved it by sending your one and only son to die for my sins, to pay a debt I could never repay, so I could live with you here and now and for eternity. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

    James‬ ‭4‬ :‭ 6 – 8

    And he gives grace generously. As the Scriptures say, “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.” So humble yourselves before God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Come close to God, and God will come close to you. Wash your hands, you sinners; purify your hearts, for your loyalty is divided between God and the world. James‬ ‭4‬ :‭ 6 – 8‬ NLT

    Have you ever set back and really thought about God’s grace? Is God’s grace just a once and awhile thought? Are you living to please God or the world ? I know that sounds harsh or brings conviction but it’s reality. Today I pray that we all would humble ourselves in God’s grace, take good care of your loved ones and take better care of your relationship with 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

    Hebrews‬ ‭6 : 19‬

    “This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and steadfast and one which enters within the veil,” ‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭6 : 19‬ ‭NASB‬‬

    The world tells us that hope is a waste of time!!!! As a believer that is crazy!!!! Remember when you were a kid and hope was all you had for that new baseball glove or pair of new shoes? That is the same hope we should have today in our promise from God’s word. Today’s prayer is that we would never lose hope in anything!!! With hope and prayer all things are possible……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

    2 Corinthians‬ ‭1 : 4‬

    “who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.” ‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭1 : 4‬ ‭NIV‬‬

    It is so important to witness to everyone we can! The world is broken and needs Jesus. The same love and mercy is available to everyone and it’s our job as Christians to spread the good news. Today’s prayer is that we would have the direction of the Holy Spirit to tell everyone about what Jesus 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

    LIE DOWN IN GREEN PASTURES of Peace. – PSALM 23 : 1 – 3, GENESIS 2 : 2 – 3, LUKE 1 : 79

    “LIE DOWN IN GREEN PASTURES of Peace. Learn to unwind whenever possible, resting in the Presence of your Shepherd. This electronic age keeps GOD’S children “wired” much of the time, too tense to find GOD in the midst of their moments. GOD built into your very being the need for rest. How twisted the world has become when people feel guilty about meeting this basic need! How much time and energy they waste by being always on the go, rather than taking time to seek The LORD’S direction for their lives. The LORD has called you to walk with HIM down paths of Peace. GOD wants you to blaze a trail for others who desire to live in HIS peaceful Presence. GOD has chosen you less for your strengths than for your weaknesses, which amplify your need for The LORD. Depend on GOD more and more, and The LORD will shower Peace on all your paths.”

    Scripture

    The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he restores my soul. He guides me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. PSALM 23 : 1 – 3

    By the seventh day God had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested from all his work. And God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done. GENESIS 2 : 2 – 3

    “ . . . 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: Lord teach me to lie down in green pastures of peace. To rest in your presence, daily. To be still and know that you are God. To listen for your direction before taking a step. Quiet my spirit Lord and make your voice louder than any other. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

    Jeremiah‬ ‭17 : 7

    “But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him.” ‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭17 : 7‬

    Sometimes things get so crazy we forget who is in control and has our back. God’s promise is just this. Today’s prayer is that we would put all of our trust and confidence in the Lord, no matter how tough things are, turn to Him and find perfect peace…….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

    AS YOU TURN YOUR ATTENTION TO GOD, feel the Light of The LORD’S Presence shining upon you. – JOHN 17 : 20 – 23, PSALM 16 : 11

    “AS YOU TURN YOUR ATTENTION TO GOD, feel the Light of The LORD’S Presence shining upon you. Open your mind and heart to receive GOD’S heavenly smile of approval. Let The LORD’S gold-tinged Love wash over you and soak into the depths of your being. As you are increasingly filled with GOD’S Being, you experience joyous union with The LORD: GOD in you, and you in GOD. Your Joy-in-GOD and GOD’S Joy-in-you become intertwined and inseparable. GOD suffuses your soul with Joy in HIS Presence; at GOD’S right hand there are pleasures forevermore.”

    Scripture

    “My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one: I in them and you in me. May they be brought to complete unity to let the world know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.” JOHN 17 : 20 – 23

    You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore. PSALM 16 : 11 (NKJV)

    Prayer

    Prayer: Lord thank you for showing me the path of life, the path full of joy and pleasure in You. Use me, with truth and love, to help the world to see more of You and less of me. In Jesus’ precious name. Amen.

    Hebrews‬ ‭6 ‬: ‭17 – 18

    God also bound himself with an oath, so that those who received the promise could be perfectly sure that he would never change his mind. So God has given both his promise and his oath. These two things are unchangeable because it is impossible for God to lie. Therefore, we who have fled to him for refuge can have great confidence as we hold to the hope that lies before us. Hebrews‬ ‭6 ‬: ‭17 – 18‬ NLT

    There are things we do that make us feel that we are unworthy to serve God. When we became Christians, that was sealed by the blood of Jesus on the Cross. God is not a changing God, he doesn’t disregard you when you miss the mark, I’m sure he is disappointed but God still has everlasting love for you when you are good or bad. Today’s prayer is that when we miss the mark we would go to God in repentance and ask by his Holy Spirit to instruct and fix that problem so that we can do bigger things for the kingdom…….Be Blessed
