LEARN TO LIVE above your circumstances. – JOHN 16 : 33, JOHN 16 : 22

https://youtu.be/LqnbBuajWrE

“LEARN TO LIVE above your circumstances. This requires focused time with GOD, the One who overcame the world. Trouble and distress are woven into the very fabric of this perishing world. Only GOD’S Life in you can empower you to face this endless flow of problems with good cheer. As you sit quietly in GOD’S Presence, HE shines Peace into your troubled mind and heart. Little by little, you are freed from earthly shackles and lifted up above your circumstances. You gain GOD’S perspective on your life, enabling you to distinguish between what is important and what is not. Rest in GOD’S Presence, receiving Joy that no one can take away from you.”

Scripture

“These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” JOHN 16 : 33 (NKJV)

So with you: Now is your time of grief, but I will see you again and you will rejoice, and no one will take away your joy. JOHN 16 : 22

Prayer

Prayer: God, thank you for shining peace into my mind when I spend time with you. Help me to see circumstances from your perspective. And the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

WAITING, TRUSTING, AND HOPING IN GOD are intricately connected, like golden strands interwoven to form a strong chain. – JOHN 14 : 1, PSALM 27 : 14, HEBREWS 6 : 18 – 20

https://youtu.be/R9R4sa06NNA

“WAITING, TRUSTING, AND HOPING IN GOD are intricately connected, like golden strands interwoven to form a strong chain. Trusting is the central strand, because it is the response from GOD’S children that HE desires the most. Waiting and hoping embellish the central strand and strengthen the chain that connects you to The LORD. Waiting for GOD to work, with your eyes on HIM, is evidence that you really do trust GOD. If you mouth the words “I trust You LORD” while anxiously trying to make things go your way, your words ring hollow. Hoping is future-directed, connecting you to your inheritance in heaven. However, the benefits of hope fall fully on you in the present. Because you are The LORD’S, you don’t just pass time in your waiting. You can wait expectantly, in hopeful trust. Keep your “antennae” out to pick up even the faintest glimmer of GOD’S Presence.”

Scripture

“Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me.” JOHN 14 : 1

Wait for the LORD; be strong and take heart and wait for the LORD. PSALM 27 : 14

God did this so that, by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the hope offered to us may be greatly encouraged. We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain, where Jesus, who went before us, has entered on our behalf. He has become a high priest forever, in the order of Melchizedek. HEBREWS 6 : 18 – 20

Prayer

Prayer: Lord help me to wait, trust, and hope in you. To wait expectantly, keeping my spiritual antennae ready to see your mighty hand at work. Do not let my heart be troubled. For you know the plans you have for me, plans to prosper me and not to harm me, plans to give me hope and a future. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

1 Timothy‬ ‭1:19‬

“holding on to faith and a good conscience, which some have rejected and so have suffered shipwreck with regard to the faith.” 1 Timothy‬ ‭1:19‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Is your faith strong? Do you trust your life 100% to God? I see so many Christians that let the world’s circumstances destroy their faith in the Lord. The Bible tells us that God is there through ALL! not some. Today’s prayer is that we would always trust in the Lord no matter what the circumstance is………Be Blessed

Acts‬ ‭9:11-18‬

And the Lord said to him, “Rise and go to the street called Straight, and at the house of Judas look for a man of Tarsus named Saul, for behold, he is praying, and he has seen in a vision a man named Ananias come in and lay his hands on him so that he might regain his sight.” But Ananias answered, “Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how much evil he has done to your saints at Jerusalem. And here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all who call on your name.” But the Lord said to him, “Go, for he is a chosen instrument of mine to carry my name before the Gentiles and kings and the children of Israel. For I will show him how much he must suffer for the sake of my name.” So Ananias departed and entered the house. And laying his hands on him he said, “Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus who appeared to you on the road by which you came has sent me so that you may regain your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit.” And immediately something like scales fell from his eyes, and he regained his sight. Then he rose and was baptized;” Acts‬ ‭9:11-18‬

Has God ever spoken to you to do something for him but you were too afraid? Ananias was also scared to death to fulfill the request of the Lord but trusted he would keep his safety. This scripture is so important in so many ways. 1. It shows that the Lord is asking for us to fulfill a mission 2. That he will empower us and equip us with the tools. 3. That the task he is asking of us will change the world for many. Today’s prayer is that we would trust that God will handle what he requests from us and we would answer the call…….Be Blessed

WALK BY FAITH, NOT BY SIGHT. – 2 CORINTHIANS 5 : 7, GALATIANS 5 : 25

https://youtu.be/ey6YNofp79c

“WALK BY FAITH, NOT BY SIGHT. As you take steps of faith, depending on GOD , The LORD will show you how much HE can do for you. If you live your life too safely, you will never know the thrill of seeing GOD work through you. When The LORD gave you HIS Holy Spirit, The LORD empowered you to live beyond your natural ability and strength. That’s why it is so wrong to measure your energy level against the challenges ahead of you. The issue is not your strength but GOD’S , which is limitless. By walking close to GOD , you can accomplish GOD’S purposes in HIS strength.”

Scripture

For we walk by faith, not by sight. 2 CORINTHIANS 5 : 7 (NKJV)

Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. GALATIANS 5 : 25

Prayer

Prayer: Lord help me to walk by faith and not by sight. To depend on you and your strength which is limitless and not on my own strength. This requires a close connection with you Lord. Help me to live and keep in step with your Holy Spirit day by day, moment by moment. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

John 15:18-19

“If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. John 15:18-19 NKJV

Is there a reason why you don’t tell everyone you meet about Jesus ? This scripture describes why. People that don’t know Jesus don’t want to hear about him, but as believers we don’t care what the world thinks!!! We are in this world but not of this world!!! Our home is heaven and Jesus says to bring heaven to earth. Today’s Christians are trying to adapt to the way the world does things instead of bringing the world to the way Jesus does things. Stand firm in your faith and profess Jesus to all!!!!! Don’t worry what people think or say,,, Jesus didn’t…….be blessed and share Jesus with someone today

Proverbs‬ ‭3‬:‭3

Never let loyalty and kindness leave you! Tie them around your neck as a reminder. Write them deep within your heart. Proverbs‬ ‭3‬:‭3‬ NLT

How do people view you? Are you kind and caring? Do you lend a helping hand when it’s needed? Today I pray we would all put this proverb to work and be kind and helpful to all we can…..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

Daniel‬ ‭7:14‬

“And to him was given dominion and glory and a kingdom, that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve him; his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom one that shall not be destroyed.” Daniel‬ ‭7:14‬ ‭ESV‬‬

This scripture speaks such volume! In today’s society there are so many different opinions of what a God is. There are religions that worship objects, animals, Suns , moons, etc. The truth is there is only one true living God and every person will at some point have the opportunity to call upon his name. Today’s prayer is that we would be the disciples that Jesus called us to be, witness to all and educate them of the truth…….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

SAVE YOUR BEST STRIVING FOR SEEKING GOD’S FACE. – 1 CHRONICLES 16 : 11, MATTHEW 6 : 33

https://youtu.be/aVdbikFhxRU

SAVE YOUR BEST STRIVING FOR SEEKING GOD’S FACE. GOD is constantly communicating with you. To find GOD and hear HIS voice, you must seek HIM above all else. Anything that you desire more than The LORD becomes an idol. When you are determined to get your own way, you blot The LORD out of your consciousness. Instead of single-mindedly pursuing some goal, talk with GOD about it. Let the Light of GOD’S Presence shine on this pursuit, so that you can see it from The LORD’S perspective. If the goal fits into GOD’S plans for you, GOD will help you reach it. If it is contrary to GOD’S will for you, HE will gradually change the desire of your heart. Seek GOD first and foremost; then the rest of your life will fall into place, piece by piece.”

Scripture

Look to the LORD and his strength; seek his face always. 1 CHRONICLES 16 : 11

“But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.” MATTHEW 6 : 33

Prayer

Prayer: Heavenly Father, above all help me to seek your kingdom and your righteousness, then all the less important things will be given to me abundantly. I will not worry about tomorrow, and instead deal with each challenge as it comes my way with you leading the way. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Galatians‬ ‭5:13‬

“For you, brethren, have been called to liberty; only do not use liberty as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.” ‭‭Galatians‬ ‭5:13‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

The definition of Liberty is “Freedom”. This scripture speaks of freedom and says do not use it as a free pass to sin. Grace brings freedom by the Cross, and all things are made new by Jesus Christ. Today’s prayer is we would all embrace our freedom in Christ and strive to be more like him in every way. I pray we do not use our freedom to satisfy ourselves, but to do a good work in Jesus name…….Be Blessed
