SPEND TIME WITH GOD for the pure pleasure of being in HIS company. – PSALM 63 : 7 – 8, PSALM 119 : 105

SPEND TIME WITH GOD for the pure pleasure of being in HIS company. (https://youtu.be/LLSCIcqe3mA)

“SPEND TIME WITH GOD for the pure pleasure of being in HIS company. GOD can brighten up the dullest of gray days; GOD can add sparkle to the routines of daily life. You have to repeat so many tasks day after day. This monotony can dull your thinking until your mind slips into neutral. A mind that is unfocused is vulnerable to “the world, the flesh, and the devil,” all of which exert a downward pull on your thoughts. As your thinking processes deteriorate, you become increasingly confused and directionless. The best remedy is to refocus your mind and heart on The LORD, your constant Companion. Even the most confusing day opens up before you as you go step by step with The LORD. GOD’S Presence goes with you wherever you go, providing Light for your path.”

Because you are my help, I sing in the shadow of your wings. My soul clings to you; your right hand upholds me. PSALM 63 : 7 – 8

Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path. PSALM 119 : 105

Prayer: Lord help me to spend time with you for the pure pleasure of being in your company. Thank you for brightening up the dullest of gray days and helping me to refocus my mind and heart on you today, my constant companion. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Titus‬ ‭2:11

“For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all men,” ‭‭Titus‬ ‭2:11‬ ‭NASB‬‬

Not one of us is different when it comes to the opportunity of receiving salvation. The difference begins when we choose to reject what Christ did on the Cross. Jesus died that day so that all of us could be set free from the bondage of sin that we were born into, the sad truth is that many will reject the opportunity. Today’s prayer is that we would be a living testimony to what our salvation has done and is doing in our lives every single day……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

TRUST GOD in the midst of a messy day. – JOHN 16 : 33, PSALM 105 : 4, JOHN 14 : 27

TRUST GOD in the midst of a messy day. (https://youtu.be/ef3XwErnyMM)

“TRUST GOD in the midst of a messy day. Your inner calm—your Peace in GOD’S Presence—need not be shaken by what is going on around you. Though you live in this temporal world, your innermost being is rooted and grounded in eternity. When you start to feel stressed, detach yourself from the disturbances around you. Instead of desperately striving to maintain order and control in your little world, relax and remember that circumstances cannot touch GOD’S Peace.”

Seek My Face, and I will share My mind with you, opening your eyes to see things from My perspective. Do not let your heart be troubled, and do not be afraid. The Peace I give is sufficient for you. “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” JOHN 16 : 33

Look to the LORD and his strength; seek his face always. PSALM 105 : 4

“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.” JOHN 14 : 27

Prayer: God help me to trust you in the midst of a messy day. To whisper your name and let you fight my battles for me and to relax and remember that circumstances cannot touch my inner peace from you. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

1 John‬ ‭2:5-6‬

“But if anyone obeys his word, love for God is truly made complete in them. This is how we know we are in him: Whoever claims to live in him must live as Jesus did.” 1 John‬ ‭2:5-6‬ ‭NIV‬‬

This scripture breaks it down in such simple terms it’s amazing. If someone asked you if you love God what would your response be? Of course it would be YES so if you love God don’t you want to try to please him at all times? To live like Jesus is to live a life that is pleasing to God, to have the heart of a servant. Today’s prayer is that we would wake up daily and start our day out by praying “Heavenly Father let me not serve myself today, but serve only you” let your will be done throughout my day and make this day not mine but yours” I believe this confession will help us all live more like 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

GOD IS THE ETERNAL “I AM”; GOD always has been, and GOD always will be. – EXODUS 3 : 14, 1 CORINTHIANS 3 : 16, PSALM 25 : 14 – 15

https://youtu.be/0N4fQPBuBF8

GOD IS THE ETERNAL "I AM"; GOD always has been, and GOD always will be. (https://youtu.be/0N4fQPBuBF8)

“GOD IS THE ETERNAL “I AM”; GOD always has been, and GOD always will be. In GOD’S Presence you experience Love and Light, Peace and Joy. GOD is intimately involved in all your moments, and GOD is training you to be aware of HIM at all times. Your assignment is to collaborate with The LORD in this training process. GOD has taken up residence within you; HE is central in your innermost being. Your mind goes off in tangents from its holy Center, time after time. Do not be alarmed by your inability to remain focused on The LORD. Simply bring your thoughts gently back to GOD each time they wander. The quickest way to redirect your mind to The LORD is to whisper HIS Name.”

God said to Moses, “I am who I am. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: ‘I AM has sent me to you.’” EXODUS 3 : 14

Don’t you know that you yourselves are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit lives in you? 1 CORINTHIANS 3 : 16

The LORD confides in those who fear him; he makes his covenant known to them. My eyes are ever on the LORD, for only he will release my feet from the snare. PSALM 25 : 14 – 15

Prayer: God thank you for sharing intimate things when I spend time with you. Thank you for being intimately involved in every moment of my life. Help me to be more aware of your presence today. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

GOD IS ALL AROUND YOU, hovering over you even as you seek HIS Face. – PSALM 139 : 1 – 4, EPHESIANS 2 : 13, 2 CORINTHIANS 5 : 21

https://youtu.be/BWUVhUfuB7c

GOD IS ALL AROUND YOU, hovering over you even as you seek HIS Face. (https://youtu.be/BWUVhUfuB7c)

“GOD IS ALL AROUND YOU, hovering over you even as you seek HIS Face. GOD is nearer than you dare believe, closer than the air you breathe. If GOD’S children could only recognize HIS Presence, they would never feel lonely again. The LORD knows every thought before you think it, every word before you speak it. GOD’S Presence impinges on your innermost being. Can you see the absurdity of trying to hide anything from HIM? You can easily deceive other people, and even yourself; but GOD can read you like an open, large-print book. Deep within themselves, most people have some awareness of The LORD’S imminent Presence. Many people run from GOD and vehemently deny HIS existence, because The LORD’S closeness terrifies them. But GOD’S own children have nothing to fear, for CHRIST has cleansed them by HIS blood and clothed them in HIS righteousness. Be blessed by GOD’S intimate nearness. Since The LORD lives in you, let HIM also live through you, shining GOD’S Light into the darkness.”

O LORD, you have searched me and you know me. You know when I sit and when I rise; you perceive my thoughts from afar. You discern my going out and my lying down; you are familiar with all my ways. Before a word is on my tongue you know it completely, O LORD. PSALM 139 : 1 – 4

But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ. EPHESIANS 2 : 13

God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God. 2 CORINTHIANS 5 : 21

Prayer: Lord help me to feel and recognize your presence with me and in me more today. May your light shine through me to others in my words, thoughts, and actions. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

John 14:6

Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. John 14:6 NKJV

Jesus said “I am the way” the way to eternal life is through salvation in Jesus which is a gift!!! Not of man’s effort. Jesus said ” I am the truth” this means that every spoken word from him is absolute!!!! We should strive to be like him. He said ” I am the life” there is no life worth living aside from Jesus !!!! He is our comfort, counselor , best friend, our everything. Today meditate on the gift of salvation and give thanks for that unconditional love…….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

ENTRUST YOUR LOVED ONES TO GOD; release them into HIS protective care. – GENESIS 22 : 9 – 12, EPHESIANS 3 : 20, EXODUS 33 : 14

https://youtu.be/ifPgKk2kgP4

ENTRUST YOUR LOVED ONES TO GOD; release them into HIS protective care. (https://youtu.be/ifPgKk2kgP4)

“ENTRUST YOUR LOVED ONES TO GOD; release them into HIS protective care. They are much safer with GOD than in your clinging hands. If you let a loved one become an idol in your heart, you endanger that one—as well as yourself. Remember the extreme measures GOD used with Abraham and Isaac. GOD took Isaac to the very point of death to free Abraham from son-worship. Both Abraham and Isaac suffered terribly because of the father’s undisciplined emotions. GOD detests idolatry, even in the form of parental love. When you release loved ones to The LORD, you are free to cling to GOD’S hand. As you entrust others into The LORD’S care, GOD is free to shower blessings on them. The LORD’S Presence will go with them wherever they go, and HE will give them rest. This same Presence stays with you, as you relax and place your trust in GOD. Watch to see what The LORD will do.”

When they reached the place God had told him about, Abraham built an altar there and arranged the wood on it. He bound his son Isaac and laid him on the altar, on top of the wood. Then he reached out his hand and took the knife to slay his son. But the angel of the LORD called out to him from heaven, “Abraham! Abraham!” “Here I am,” he replied. “Do not lay a hand on the boy,” he said. “Do not do anything to him. Now I know that you fear God, because you have not withheld from me your son, your only son.” GENESIS 22 : 9 – 12

Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us. . . . EPHESIANS 3 : 20

The LORD replied, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.” EXODUS 33 : 14

Prayer: God I release my children to you. You love them and can take care of them far better than I can. May your presence go with them wherever they go. I can’t wait to watch and see what you do in their lives and in mine. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Romans‬ ‭6:23‬

“For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans‬ ‭6:23‬

This scripture speaks about choice, we all were born into sin but throughout our life we are given a choice to continue to live in sin or gain freedom through the sacrifice that Jesus paid. Today’s prayer is that we would truly seek to bring souls to the Lord! Let the cross of Calvary not be for just some but for all…….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 ‭3:7

“But whatever things were gain to me, those things I have counted as loss for the sake of Christ.”‭ ‭Philippians‬ ‭3:7‬ ‭NASB‬‬

Before when we were not in Christ, trivial things meant the most to us, possessions, material things, ourselves!!! Is this you today? This scripture tells us that we should count all that was gain to us as nothing!!! Ouch, hard to swallow I know. Today’s prayer is that we would live a life of priority, nice things are nice but are we blessing others on the account of the blessing Jesus gave us?…….Be Blessed & Be a Blessing always

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
