DEMONSTRATE YOUR TRUST IN GOD by sitting quietly in HIS Presence. – LUKE 12 : 22 – 26, EPHESIANS 6 : 12, PROVERBS 16 : 3

https://youtu.be/OvwDUT6a0-8

“DEMONSTRATE YOUR TRUST IN GOD by sitting quietly in HIS Presence. Put aside all that is waiting to be done, and refuse to worry about anything. This sacred time together strengthens you and prepares you to face whatever the day will bring. By waiting with The LORD before you begin the day’s activities, you proclaim the reality of HIS living Presence. This act of faith—waiting before working — is noted in the spirit world, where your demonstration of trust weakens principalities and powers of darkness. The most effective way to resist evil is to draw near to GOD. When you need to take action, GOD will guide you clearly through HIS Holy Spirit and HIS Word. The world is so complex and overstimulating that you can easily lose your sense of direction. Doing countless unnecessary activities will dissipate your energy. When you spend time with GOD, HE restores your sense of direction. As you look to GOD for guidance, The LORD enables you to do less but accomplish more.”

Scripture

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?” LUKE 12 : 22 – 26

For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. EPHESIANS 6 : 12

Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and your plans will succeed. PROVERBS 16 : 3

Prayer

Prayer: Lord help me to make time each day to sit quietly in your presence, putting aside all that is waiting to be done and refusing to worry. To wait before working – allowing you to strengthen and prepare me to face whatever you have for me today. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

1 Corinthians‬ ‭7 : 17

“Nevertheless, each person should live as a believer in whatever situation the Lord has assigned to them, just as God has called them. This is the rule I lay down in all the churches.” ‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭7 : 17‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Do you ever wonder what your purpose is? Have you ever seen the worship leader and said “I wish that was me”? Do you not understand that the little old lady handing out the pamphlets at the door is just as important in God’s eyes. God has given each one of us an individual gift, how we choose to use it is up to us. The body works together and one finger is as important as one hand. Today I pray that whatever gift you have been given by God that you would use it to please and glorify the Lord not man………..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

GROW STRONG in the Light of GOD’S Presence. – PSALM 4 : 6 – 8, REVELATION 21 : 23

https://youtu.be/hCJI9-skH6M

“GROW STRONG in the Light of GOD’S Presence. As GOD’S Face shines upon you, you receive nutrients that enhance your growth in grace. GOD designed you to commune with HIM face to Face, and this interaction strengthens your soul. Such communion provides a tiny glimpse of what awaits you in heaven, where all barriers between you and The LORD’S Glory will be removed. This meditative time with GOD blesses you doubly: You experience The LORD’S Presence here and now, and you are refreshed by the hope of heaven, where you will know GOD in ecstatic Joy.”

Scripture

Many are asking, “Who can show us any good?” Let the light of your face shine upon us, O LORD. You have filled my heart with greater joy than when their grain and new wine abound. I will lie down and sleep in peace, for you alone, O LORD, make me dwell in safety. PSALM 4 : 6 – 8

The city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and the Lamb is its lamp. REVELATION 21 : 23

Prayer

Prayer: Lord you have filled my heart with greater joy than words can express. Help me to grow strong in the light of your presence. Thank you for your presence now and for the hope of Heaven eternal. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Isaiah‬ ‭64 : 4

“Since ancient times no one has heard, no ear has perceived, no eye has seen any God besides you, who acts on behalf of those who wait for him.” ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭64 : 4‬ ‭

Patience seems to be a thing of the past! In society today people want it NOW. This scripture says God acts on those who wait for him, are you waiting on God in all the areas of your life? Your decisions for your family, finances, job? Today’s prayer is that in this microwave society that we would wait on God in all the decisions of our life, I believe if we wait on his timing the best will come……..In Jesus name Be Blessed

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

https://youtu.be/lDGu623y164

“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 GOD, your constant Companion. Even the most confusing day opens up before you as you go step by step with GOD. HIS Presence goes with you wherever you go, providing Light for your path.”

Scripture

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

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 – 14

For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age, looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed and purify for Himself His own special people, zealous for good works. Titus 2 : 11 – 14 NKJV

Does your heart want to do good? Of course but we are surrounded by corruption, the grace that Jesus has for us lets us move through the mistakes we make and into the glory of God. Today I pray that we all would shed the condemnation!!!!! And thank God for his Son……remember when you sin you don’t fall from grace, you fall INTO grace……..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

https://youtu.be/tflMbFIoEgI

“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.”

Scripture

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

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.

‭‭Colossians‬ ‭1 : 13 – 14

“For He rescued us from the domain of darkness, and transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.” ‭‭Colossians‬ ‭1 : 13 – 14‬ ‭NASB‬‬

Remember when you didn’t belong to Jesus? Your life had a very trivial meaning. The life you lived in sin was destined for an eternity of doom!! But now you have a life of eternity in heaven. Today’s prayer is that we would always give thanks to God for the precious gift that he has given us…….Be Blessed

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/jF7eRrEXOZ0

“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. The LORD took Isaac to the very point of death to free Abraham from son-worship. GOD detests idolatry, even in the form of parental love. When you release loved ones to GOD, you are free to cling to HIS hand. As you entrust others into GOD’S care, HE is free to shower blessings on them. GOD’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 HE will do.”

Scripture

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

Prayer: Lord, I release my loved ones to you. You know the ones I tend to hold onto a bit too tight. They are safest in your capable hands, which frees my hand to cling to yours. Thank you Lord. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
