GIVE UP THE ILLUSION that you deserve a problem-free life. – JOHN 16 : 33, PSALM 112 : 4, 7

https://youtu.be/a5jwU-hbR6A

“GIVE UP THE ILLUSION that you deserve a problem-free life. Part of you is still hungering for the resolution of all difficulties. This is a false hope! As JESUS CHRIST, The LORD told HIS disciples, in the world you will have trouble. Link your hope not to problem solving in this life but to the promise of an eternity of problem-free life in heaven. Instead of seeking perfection in this fallen world, pour your energy into seeking GOD: the Perfect One. It is possible to enjoy GOD and glorify HIM in the midst of adverse circumstances. In fact, The LORD’S Light shines most brightly through believers who trust HIM in the dark. That kind of trust is supernatural: a production of GOD’S indwelling Spirit. When things seem all wrong, trust GOD anyway. The LORD is much less interested in right circumstances than in right responses to whatever comes your way.”

Scripture

“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

Even in darkness light dawns for the upright, for the gracious and compassionate and righteous man. . . . He will have no fear of bad news; his heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD. PSALM 112 : 4, 7

Prayer

Prayer: Lord help me to seek you more than a problem-free life. You told us in this life we will have trouble. My job is to trust you regardless of my circumstances by the power of your Holy Spirit in me. I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Lamentations‬ ‭3‬:‭22-23

The faithful love of the LORD never ends! His mercies never cease. Great is his faithfulness; his mercies begin afresh each morning. ‭Lamentations‬ ‭3‬:‭22-23‬ NLT

Today is a new day, every morning we get a fresh start. It may seem like the trials will never end but God is with us and his love and mercy never stop. Yesterday is gone, today is new. Today I pray that we would give God thanks for everyday and know that he will see us through…….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

LET GOD’S LOVE ENFOLD YOU in the radiance of HIS Glory. – HEBREWS 13 : 15, 2 CORINTHIANS 3 : 18, PSALM 73 : 23 – 24

https://youtu.be/N23D_y1OIAs

“LET GOD’S LOVE ENFOLD YOU in the radiance of HIS Glory. Sit still in the Light of GOD’S Presence, and receive HIS Peace. These quiet moments with GOD transcend time, accomplishing far more than you can imagine. Bring GOD the sacrifice of your time, and watch to see how abundantly The LORD blesses you and your loved ones. Through the intimacy of your relationship, you are being transformed from the inside out. As you keep your focus on The LORD, HE forms you into the one HE desires you to be. Your part is to yield to The LORD’s creative work in you, neither resisting it nor trying to speed it up. Enjoy the tempo of a God-breathed life by letting GOD set the pace. Hold GOD’s hand in childlike trust, and the way before you will open up step by step.”

Scripture

Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise—the fruit of lips that confess his name. HEBREWS 13 : 15

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 : 18

Yet I am always with you; you hold me by my right hand. You guide me with your counsel, and afterward you will take me into glory. PSALM 73 : 23 – 24

Prayer

Prayer: Lord as I sit still with you, fill me with your peace. Bless my loved ones beyond anything we could ask or think or imagine as I bring you the sacrifice of my time. Help me to yield to your creative work in me. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

1Thessalonians‬ ‭5:2‬

“For you yourselves know full well that the day of the Lord will come just like a thief in the night.” ‭‭1Thessalonians‬ ‭5:2‬ ‭NASB‬‬

Are you ready? Is your family ready? This scripture speaks about the coming day of the Lord and how important it is to be ready. The importance people have put on protecting their home, car, possessions seems more important than their eternal life!!! When was the last time you heard someone say ” I’m good I will leave my car running at the mall with a note that says take me” that’s the same thing when someone says I’m good, I’m a good person, I don’t need that religion. Today’s prayer is that not only would we be ready but everyone that we can possibly prepare…….Be Blessed

GOD’S PEACE is the treasure of treasures: the pearl of great price. – MATTHEW 13 : 46, JAMES 1 : 2, JOHN 16 : 33

https://youtu.be/ZEerUid5-gg

“GOD’S PEACE is the treasure of treasures: the pearl of great price. It is an exquisitely costly gift, both for the Giver and the receiver. JESUS CHRIST, The LORD purchased this Peace for you with HIS blood. You receive this gift by trusting The LORD in the midst of life’s storms. If you have the world’s peace—everything going your way—you don’t seek GOD’S unfathomable Peace. Thank The LORD when things do not go your way, because spiritual blessings come wrapped in trials. Adverse circumstances are normal in a fallen world. Expect them each day. Rejoice in the face of hardship, for The LORD has overcome the world.”

Scripture

. . . who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had and bought it. MATTHEW 13 : 46 (NKJV)

Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds. JAMES 1 : 2

“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

Prayer: Lord cover me with your peace, the pearl you bought with your very life for me. I praise you and thank you in the trials of life because they remind me to rely on you more, less on myself. I hand my trials to you Lord. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Romans‬ ‭12‬:‭12

Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. ‭Romans‬ ‭12‬:‭12‬ NIV

This scripture lays out a great foundation to live by. To be joyful in hope is to look to our end results in Jesus, to be patient in affliction is to know that without a doubt Jesus will show up to correct the situation, and to be faithful in prayer means to always have an open line of communication with Jesus. Today I pray that we would all use this scripture as a foundation to live our lives by…….Be Blessed

IT’S ALRIGHT TO BE HUMAN. – DEUTERONOMY 31 : 6, 1 PETER 3 : 4, 2 CORINTHIANS 4 : 6 – 7, 2 CORINTHIANS 12 : 9

https://youtu.be/qdYhwvCglKM

“IT’S ALRIGHT TO BE HUMAN. When your mind wanders while you are praying, don’t be surprised or upset. Simply return your attention to GOD. Share a secret smile with The LORD, knowing that HE understands. Rejoice in GOD’S Love for you, which has no limits or conditions. Whisper The LORD’S Name in loving contentment, assured that HE will never leave you or forsake you. Intersperse these peaceful interludes abundantly throughout your day. This practice will enable you to attain a quiet and gentle spirit, which is pleasing to GOD. As you live in close contact with GOD, the Light of HIS Presence filters through you to bless others. Your weakness and woundedness are the openings through which the Light of the knowledge of GOD’S Glory shines forth. The LORD’s strength and power show themselves most effectively in your weakness.”

“Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.” DEUTERONOMY 31 : 6

Instead, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight. 1 PETER 3 : 4

For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ. But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. 2 CORINTHIANS 4 : 6 – 7

But he said to me, My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness. Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 2 CORINTHIANS 12 : 9

Prayer: Pitch a tent over and dwell upon me Lord. Your grace is enough for me. Even when problems arise, I will rely on your power and your strength through Christ in me. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Psalms 27:1

The Lord is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; Of whom shall I be afraid? Psalms 27:1 NKJV

It’s easy to worry or be afraid of certain situations but the Word says ” whom shall we fear”. Fear is not from God, faith and trust are. Today’s prayer is when a situation arises, remember this Psalm and trust in God’s love and protection for you……..Be Blessed

STRIVE TO TRUST GOD in more and more areas of your life. – PSALM 52 : 8, PROVERBS 3 : 5 – 6

https://youtu.be/nfCztLI7FpU

“STRIVE TO TRUST GOD in more and more areas of your life. Anything that tends to make you anxious is a growth opportunity. Instead of running away from these challenges, embrace them, eager to gain all the blessings GOD has hidden in the difficulties. If you believe that GOD is sovereign over every aspect of your life, it is possible to trust GOD in all situations. Don’t waste energy regretting the way things are or thinking about what might have been. Start at the present moment—accepting things exactly as they are— and search for GOD’S way in the midst of those circumstances. Trust is like a staff you can lean on, as you journey uphill with The LORD. If you are trusting in GOD consistently, the staff will bear as much of your weight as needed. Lean on, trust, and be confident in The LORD with all your heart and mind.”

But I am like an olive tree flourishing in the house of God; I trust in God’s unfailing love for ever and ever. PSALM 52 : 8

Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths. PROVERBS 3 : 5 – 6

Prayer: Lord help me to trust you in more and more areas of my life. Starting at the present moment, accepting things exactly as they are, and searching for your way in the midst of my circumstance. I trust you Jesus. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Romans 12:1 – 2

beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. Romans 12:1 – 2 NKJV

Paul says I bring to you, by the mercies of God. Too many Christians are going to God trying to make him perform by their works, we should be thanking him for his mercy…… Today I pray that we all would renew our minds daily, and embrace God’s mercy for us….. Be Blessed
