Titus‬ ‭3:1-5‬

“Remind them to be subject to rulers and authorities, to obey, to be ready for every good work, to speak evil of no one, to be peaceable, gentle, showing all humility to all men. For we ourselves were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful and hating one another. But when the kindness and the love of God our Savior toward man appeared, not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit,” ‭‭Titus‬ ‭3:1-5‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

I see so much hate on social media from believers and non believers!!! The fact is we all have our opinions but should never get tangled up in that hate web that is spun to catch all the hate of the world. Today’s prayer is that we as believers would have humility towards all the things we see and not get right in the middle of it!!!!! Let Go, Let God……Be Blessed

YOU WILL NOT FIND GOD’S PEACE by engaging in excessive planning – 1 PETER 5 : 6 – 7, PROVERBS 16 : 9, PSALM 37 : 5

https://youtu.be/xjREA0vfPWA

“YOU WILL NOT FIND GOD’S PEACE by engaging in excessive planning: attempting to control what will happen to you in the future. That is a commonly practiced form of unbelief. When your mind spins with multiple plans, Peace may sometimes seem to be within your grasp; yet it always eludes you. Just when you think you have prepared for all possibilities, something unexpected pops up and throws things into confusion. GOD did not design the human mind to figure out the future. That is beyond your capability. GOD crafted your mind for continual communication with HIM. Bring GOD all your needs, your hopes and fears. Commit everything into GOD’S care. Turn from the path of planning to the path of Peace.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. 1 PETER 5 : 6 – 7

In his heart a man plans his course, but the LORD determines his steps. PROVERBS 16 : 9

Commit your way to the LORD, Trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass. PSALM 37 : 5 (NKJV)

Prayer: Lord I bring you all my needs, my hopes, and my fears. I lay them at your feet. Help me not to hold onto anything tighter than I hold onto you. I can always count on your plans for they are always for my good. And when I don’t understand and life is hard, I trust you are weaving a grand story together, using everything for my good and the good of others. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Matthew‬ ‭6:27

“Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?”
Matthew‬ ‭6:27‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Do you worry about everything? Have you ever noticed by worrying that nothing changes? Trusting in a circumstance leads to misery, trusting in God leads to total peace. Today’s prayer is that when difficult circumstances arise we would hand it over to God and eliminate worry and trust in God……..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 DESIGNED YOU to live in union with HIM. – MARK 8 : 36, PSALM 139 : 13 – 16, 2 CORINTHIANS 3 : 17 – 18

https://youtu.be/y_agvgLTXII

“GOD DESIGNED YOU to live in union with HIM. This union does not negate who you are; it actually makes you more fully yourself. When you try to live independently of GOD, you experience emptiness and dissatisfaction. You may gain the whole world and yet lose everything that really counts. Find fulfillment through living close to The LORD, yielding to HIS purposes for you. Though GOD may lead you along paths that feel alien to you, trust that The LORD knows what HE is doing. If you follow GOD wholeheartedly, you will discover facets of yourself that were previously hidden. The LORD knows you intimately —far better than you know yourself. In union with GOD, you are complete. In closeness to GOD, you are transformed more and more into the one HE designed you to be.” paraphrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

“What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his soul?” MARK 8 : 36

For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be. PSALM 139 : 13 – 16

Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his likeness with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit. 2 CORINTHIANS 3 : 17 – 18

Prayer: Lord help me to find fulfillment through living close to you, and yielding to your purposes for my life. When I do, I’m more successful, more peaceful, more joyful, and more fully myself. Thank you for the beautiful union Jesus made possible through the cross. In Jesus’ precious name. Amen.

Hebrews‬ ‭13:2-3‬

“Don’t forget to show hospitality to strangers, for some who have done this have entertained angels without realizing it! Remember those in prison, as if you were there yourself. Remember also those being mistreated, as if you felt their pain in your own bodies.” Hebrews‬ ‭13:2-3‬
‭‭‭
It’s so easy to get caught up in the rat race of life that we overlook the God moments that he sets in front of our faces daily. It’s so easy to judge those on the streets and say ” they just want to go buy a drink” but is that for us to judge? What if God passed that same judgement on us? God loved us at our lowest moments in life! Don’t you think we should do the same? Today’s prayer is that we would slow down and show the same love that God showed us, take every opportunity to witness the love of Jesus, preach to someone, not at them……..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

YOU ARE GOD’S CHILD, REST IN THE LORD. – JOHN 15 : 13, ZEPHANIAH 3 : 17, NUMBERS 6 : 25 – 26

https://youtu.be/aWLHMnmZSyI

“YOU ARE GOD’S CHILD, REST IN THE LORD. This time devoted to GOD is meant to be peaceful, not stressful. You don’t have to perform in order to receive GOD’S Love. GOD has boundless, unconditional Love for you. How it grieves The LORD to see HIS children working for Love: trying harder and harder, yet never feeling good enough to be loved. Be careful that your devotion to GOD does not become another form of works. GOD wants you to come into HIS Presence joyfully and confidently. You have nothing to fear, for you wear The LORD’S own righteousness. Gaze into The LORD’S eyes, and you will see no condemnation, only Love and delight in the one HE sees. Be blessed as GOD’S Face shines radiantly upon you, giving you Peace. para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. JOHN 15 : 13

“The LORD your God is with you, he is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, he will quiet you with his love, he will rejoice over you with singing.” ZEPHANIAH 3 : 17

“The LORD make his face shine upon you and be gracious to you; the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace.” NUMBERS 6 : 25 – 26

Prayer: Lord help me to rest in you. May your face shine radiantly upon me, giving me peace. Thank you for your boundless unconditional love. Teach me to love more like you. In Jesus’ precious name. Amen.

Galatians‬ ‭6:1

“Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted.” Galatians‬ ‭6:1‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Are you living a life with no sin? Didn’t think so. We all sin so why do we judge and condemn others when they sin? Hasn’t the judging been done at the cross? Then why do we play God with our judgment? Today’s prayer is that when a brother or sister is struggling that we would lift them up and help!! not keep them down……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

WORSHIP GOD by living close to HIM.

https://youtu.be/dljxLVxxQco

“WORSHIP GOD by living close to HIM. This was GOD’S original design for man, into whom GOD breathed HIS very breath of Life. This is GOD’S desire for you: that you stay near HIM as you walk along your life-path. Each day is an important part of that journey. Although you may feel as if you are going nowhere in this world, your spiritual journey is another matter altogether, taking you along steep, treacherous paths of adventure. That is why walking in the Light of GOD’S Presence is essential to keep you from stumbling. By staying close to GOD, you present yourself as a living sacrifice. Even the most routine part of your day can be a spiritual act of worship, holy and pleasing to GOD.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

The LORD God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being. GENESIS 2 : 7

Blessed are those who have learned to acclaim you, who walk in the light of your presence, O LORD. PSALM 89 : 15

Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spiritual act of worship. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. ROMANS 12 : 1 – 2

Prayer: Lord whether I eat or drink or anything I do, help me to do it with excellence for your glory and to help others. Do not let me conform to the patterns of this world, but transform me by the renewing of my mind to look a little more like Jesus each day. Use me to be salt and light this week. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Colossians 2:12-15

buried with Him in baptism, in which you also were raised with Him through faith in the working of God, who raised Him from the dead. And you, being dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He has made alive together with Him, having forgiven you all trespasses, having wiped out the handwriting of requirements that was against us, which was contrary to us. And He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross. Having disarmed principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it. (Colossians 2:12-15 NKJV)

It’s hard for us to understand that Jesus took all the sin, sickness, poverty, ugliness at the cross!!!!! Although we struggle daily with sin, do not be sin conscious, be God conscious. In Christ we have all things, it has been deposited in our spirit forever more…….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

Ephesians 1:7

In Him we have redemption (deliverance and salvation) through His blood, the remission (forgiveness) of our offenses (shortcomings and trespasses), in accordance with the riches and the generosity of His gracious favor, (Ephesians 1:7 AMP)

We have eternal redemption through the Blood of Jesus Christ!!!! Circumstances sometimes tell us were not worthy, we should be ashamed but when Jesus died on the cross we received a gift, each day confess ” I am the righteousness through Christ Jesus” let not your works determine how close you are to The Lord ……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
