“Judge not, that you be not judged. For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you.” Matthew 7:1-2
Have you ever judged ? I know I have! And yes I have been judged back with the same measure! Most people know me as the guy with a tie in a suit, and when they see me with a t shirt and shorts there opinion changes all of a sudden. Today’s Prayer is that we would view all of Gods children the same! Look through the appearance too the person……..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 HIM. Give your mind a break from planning and trying to anticipate what will happen. Pray continually, asking The LORD’S Holy Spirit to take charge of the details of this day. Remember that you are on a journey with GOD. When you try to peer into the future and plan for every possibility, you ignore your constant Companion who sustains you moment by moment. As you gaze anxiously into the distance, you don’t even feel the strong grip of GOD’S hand holding yours. How foolish you are, GOD’S child! Remembrance of GOD is a daily discipline. Never lose sight of The LORD’S Presence with you. This will keep you resting in GOD all day, every day.” – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
Pray continually. 1 THESSALONIANS 5 : 17
Find rest, O my soul, in God alone; my hope comes from him. PSALM 62 : 5
Prayer: Holy Spirit, take charge of the details of my day today. Help me to rest in you, knowing you have every detail covered. No matter what lies ahead, we will face it together, and you will fight my battles for me. I need only to give up control. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
“In this manner, therefore, pray: Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, As we forgive our debtors. And do not lead us into temptation, But deliver us from the evil one. For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. “For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.” Matthew 6:9-15 NKJV

2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new
“SEEK TO LIVE IN GOD’S LOVE, which covers a multitude of sins: both yours and others’. Wear GOD’S Love like a cloak of Light, covering you from head to toe. Have no fear, for perfect Love decimates fear. Look at other people through lenses of Love; see them from GOD’S perspective. This is how you walk in the Light, and it pleases The LORD. GOD wants HIS Body of believers to be radiant with the Light of HIS Presence. How GOD grieves when pockets of darkness increasingly dim the Love-Light. Return to GOD, your First Love! Gaze at The LORD in the splendor of holiness, and GOD’S Love will once again envelop you in Light.”
Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. 1 PETER 4 : 8
There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. 1 JOHN 4 : 1 8
Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken your first love. REVELATION 2 : 4
Prayer: God help me to look at other people through the lens of love, seeing them from your perspective. When I wander, gently remind me to return to my good shepherd where you make me lie down in green pastures and lead me beside still waters. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
Scripture: Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.” MATTHEW 28 : 18
Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name. PSALM 100 : 4
Commentary: “GOD WANTS YOU TO BE ALL HIS, filled with the Light of HIS Presence. Jesus Christ, The LORD gave everything for you by living as a man, then dying for your sins and living again. Hold back nothing from The LORD. Bring your most secret thoughts into the Light of GOD’S Love. Anything you bring to GOD – HE transforms and cleanses from darkness. GOD knows everything about you, far more than you know of yourself. But GOD restrains HIS yearning to “fix” you, waiting instead for you to come to HIM for help. Imagine the divine restraint this requires, for GOD has all Power in heaven and on earth. Seek GOD’S Face with a teachable spirit. Come into GOD’S Presence with thanksgiving, desiring to be transformed.”
Prayer: Jesus thank you for giving everything for me by dying for my sins. Because of the blood I am free. When trouble comes, help me to bring it to you to fix and come to you with a teachable spirit, trusting your perfect timing. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
“GOD IS ALL AROUND YOU, like a cocoon of Light. GOD’S Presence with you is a promise, independent of your awareness of HIM. Many things can block this awareness, but the major culprit is worry. The LORD’S children tend to accept worry as an inescapable fact of life. However, worry is a form of unbelief; it is a curse to GOD. Who is in charge of your life? If it is you, then you have good reason to worry. But if it is GOD, then worry is both unnecessary and counterproductive. When you start to feel anxious about something, relinquish the situation to The LORD. Back off a bit, redirecting your focus to GOD. The LORD will either take care of the problem Himself or show you how to handle it. In this world you will have problems, but you need not lose sight of GOD.” – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
Then Jesus said to his disciples: “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; or about your body, what you will wear. Life is more than food, and the body more than clothes. Consider the ravens: They do not sow or reap, they have no storeroom or barn; yet God feeds them. And how much more valuable you are than birds! Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life? Since you cannot do this very little thing, why do you worry about the rest? Consider how the lilies grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you, not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today, and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, how much more will he clothe you, O you of little faith! And do not set your heart on what you will eat or drink; do not worry about it. For the pagan world runs after all such things, and your Father knows that you need them. But seek his kingdom, and these things will be given to you as well.” LUKE 12 : 22 – 31
“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
Prayer: Lord when I start to worry, gently remind me you are in control and to talk with you about it, relinquishing control back to you, in your capable hands. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
“Don’t speak evil against each other, dear brothers and sisters. If you criticize and judge each other, then you are criticizing and judging God’s law. But your job is to obey the law, not to judge whether it applies to you. God alone, who gave the law, is the Judge. He alone has the power to save or to destroy. So what right do you have to judge your neighbor?” James 4:11-12
2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new
“Then Jesus went into the temple of God and drove out all those who bought and sold in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who sold doves. And He said to them, “It is written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer,’ but you have made it a ‘den of thieves.’ ”” Matthew 21:12-13
