Daily Devotional Video 5/29/2020 – MATTHEW 1 : 23, COLOSSIANS 2 : 6 – 7

https://youtu.be/aUXpDXNL0zI

“GOD IS WITH YOU, watching over you constantly. The LORD is Emmanuel (God with you); GOD’S Presence enfolds you in radiant Love. Nothing, including the brightest blessings and the darkest trials, can separate you from GOD. Some of GOD’S children find HIM more readily during dark times, when difficulties force them to depend on The LORD. Others feel closer to GOD when their lives are filled with good things. They respond with thanksgiving and praise, thus opening wide the door to The LORD’S Presence. GOD knows precisely what you need to draw nearer to HIM. Go through each day looking for what Tee LORD has prepared for you. Accept every event as GOD’S hand-tailored provision for your needs. When you view your life this way, the most reasonable response is to be thankful. Do not reject any of The LORD’S gifts; find GOD in every situation.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

“The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel”—which means, “God with us.” MATTHEW 1 : 23

So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness. COLOSSIANS 2 : 6 – 7

Prayer: Lord I overflow with thankfulness for despite problems in this life, this is not my true home. Help me to be rooted and built up in Christ, strengthened in my faith, and overflowing with thankfulness today. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Psalms‬ ‭3:1-3

“LORD, how they have increased who trouble me! Many are they who rise up against me. Many are they who say of me, “ There is no help for him in God.” Selah But You, O LORD, are a shield for me, My glory and the One who lifts up my head.” Psalms‬ ‭3:1-3‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

There will always be people that come against you for your beliefs but remember that God is always there to give you strength in this time of need. Today’s prayer is that in your times of trials and persecution you would lean on the Lord…..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

“Therefore do not cast away your confidence, which has great reward. For you have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, you may receive the promise:” Hebrews‬ ‭10:35-36‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Do you know you have a special gift or talent but are to afraid to use it? Are you seeking approval from man or God? This scripture tells us not to cast away our confidence. The Lord will always help with a gift from him if we use it to glorify him. Today’s prayer is that we would all use that gifts from God to bring him glory, he will see that our confidence holds strong……..Be Blessed

Daily Devotional Video 5/28/2020 – 1 TIMOTHY 6 : 15 – 16, JAMES 4 : 8, ACTS 17 : 28 , PSALM 145 : 3 – 6

https://youtu.be/2NIp6W5AZPs

“LET GOD ANOINT YOU with HIS Presence. GOD is King of kings and Lord of lords, dwelling in unapproachable Light. When you draw near to GOD, HE responds by coming closer to you. As GOD’S Presence envelops you, you may feel overwhelmed by HIS Power and Glory. This is a form of worship: sensing your smallness in comparison to GOD’S Greatness. Man has tended to make himself the measure of all things. But man’s measure is too tiny to comprehend The LORD’S majestic vastness. That is why most people do not see GOD at all, even though they live and move and have their being in GOD. Enjoy the radiant beauty of GOD’S Presence. Declare GOD’S glorious Being to the world!” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords, who alone is immortal and who lives in unapproachable light, whom no one has seen or can see. To him be honor and might forever. Amen. 1 TIMOTHY 6 : 15 – 16

Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. JAMES 4 : 8

“‘For in him we live and move and have our being.’ As some of your own poets have said, ‘We are his offspring.’” ACTS 17 : 28

Great is the LORD and most worthy of praise; his greatness no one can fathom. One generation will commend your works to another; they will tell of your mighty acts. They will speak of the glorious splendor of your majesty, and I will meditate on your wonderful works. They will tell of the power of your awesome works, and I will proclaim your great deeds. PSALM 145 : 3 – 6

Prayer: Lord I come close to you today. Envelop me in your loving arms. Hold me close. And open my eyes to see more of you in and around me today. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Daily Devotional Video 5/27/2020 – PSALM 27 : 8, ROMANS 13 : 14, COLOSSIANS 3 : 12

https://youtu.be/3boCNDxG_Ug

Praise report update: Week or so ago I made a special prayer request for a Mom named Brandi and her daughter Layla – I got an update this morning that both are doing well and doors were opened for them that had been closed these doors have allowed Brandi and Layla to move to where they have the family support they need to not only stay together but for Brandi to get the help she needs to get back on track. PRAYERS WORK!!!

“SEEK GOD’S FACE at the beginning of your day. This practice enables you to “put GOD on” and “wear GOD” throughout the day. Most people put on clothes soon after arising from bed. Similarly, the sooner you “put GOD on” by communicating with GOD, the better prepared you are for whatever comes your way. To “wear GOD” is essentially to have GOD’S mind: to think HIS thoughts. Ask the Holy Spirit to control your thinking; be transformed by this renewal within you. Thus you are well equipped to face whatever people and situations GOD brings your way. Clothing your mind in GOD is your best preparation for each day. This discipline brings Joy and Peace to you and those around you.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

When You said, “Seek My face,” My heart said to You, “Your face, LORD, I will seek.” PSALM 27 : 8 (NKJV)

Rather, clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, and do not think about how to gratify the desires of the sinful nature. ROMANS 13 : 14

Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. COLOSSIANS 3 : 12

Prayer: Lord help me to prioritize seeking you each morning, to put you in as I do my clothes. Holy Spirit control my thoughts today, make them obedient to Christ. And let compassion for others abound and overflow in and through me today just as Jesus shows me compassion. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Proverbs‬ ‭16:3

“Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.”
‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭16:3‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Are you seeking council from the Lord in all you do? Are you dealing with the feeling that a particular situation isn’t right?. This proverb says commit to the Lord in whatever you do! Not commit to some things. Today’s prayer is that we would have so much faith in God’s plan for us that we would seek him first and trust that he will give us the proper decision…….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

Romans‬ ‭7:6

“But now we have been released from the law, for we died to it and are no longer captive to its power. Now we can serve God, not in the old way of obeying the letter of the law, but in the new way of living in the Spirit.” Romans‬ ‭7:6‬ ‭NLT‬‬

We are not born a perfect person! We will never be a perfect person in the flesh! But in the spirit we are one with Christ! The law was perfect and we are not so how could we live that life? Only one was perfect and he made a way for us to live that same perfect life spiritually. Hold on you say, are you saying we are perfect? Absolutely we are in the eyes of God because we are covered by Calvary and what Jesus did for us! Today’s prayer is that we would all as Christians not be shook by Covid 19 or shook by the past due bills, because we are children of God and it’s tome to act like it!!! Pray hard for all, live life too your best, be kind too all, and last but not least let the light of Jesus shine in all you do….. 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

Daily Devotional Video 5/26/2020 – REVELATION 22 : 13, JOHN 16 : 33

https://youtu.be/ingqFbsKCig

“IN A WORLD of unrelenting changes, GOD is the One who never changes. GOD is the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End. Find in GOD the stability for which you have yearned. GOD created a beautifully ordered world: one that reflected HIS perfection. Now, however, the world is under the bondage of sin and evil. Every person on the planet faces gaping jaws of uncertainty. The only antidote to this poisonous threat is drawing closer to GOD. In GOD’S Presence you can face uncertainty with perfect Peace.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

“I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.” REVELATION 22 : 13

I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world. JOHN 16 : 33 ESV

Prayer: Jesus thank you for defeating death and overcoming the world. When I face uncertainty, help me to draw close to you, where I can have perfect peace despite any circumstance. You are my rock and my firm foundation. In you I am completely safe. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

John 16:23-24

“And in that day you will ask Me nothing. Most assuredly, I say to you, whatever you ask the Father in My name He will give you. Until now you have asked nothing in My name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full. (John 16:23-24 NKJV)

Prayer is the most powerful pathway we have to God. Jesus said ask and you will receive, he said knock and the door will be opened, are you asking in the the name of Jesus ? Are you knocking in the name of Jesus ? If not do so, do not do it in some religious tradition, but believe for it!!!! Today I pray that we would all understand the power of prayer and believe that what we pray has already been done ” In Jesus mighty name”……..Be Blessed

Daily Devotional Video 5/25/2020 – ISAIAH 41 : 10, ZEPHANIAH 3 : 17, PSALM 34 : 19

https://youtu.be/1ojTOjYU4WU

“THE WORLD IS TOO MUCH WITH YOU, YOU ARE GOD’S child. Your mind leaps from problem to problem to problem, tangling your thoughts in anxious knots. When you think like that, you leave GOD out of your world-view and your mind becomes darkened. Though GOD yearns to help, GOD will not violate your freedom. The LORD stands silently in the background of your mind, waiting for you to remember that GOD is with you. When you turn from your problems to GOD’S Presence, your load is immediately lighter. Circumstances may not have changed, but GOD and you carry your burdens together. Your compulsion to “fix” everything gives way to deep, satisfying connection with GOD. Together GOD and you can handle whatever this day brings.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

“So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” ISAIAH 41 : 10

“The LORD your God is with you, he is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, he will quiet you with his love, he will rejoice over you with singing.” ZEPHANIAH 3 : 17

A righteous man may have many troubles, but the LORD delivers him from them all. PSALM 34 : 19

Prayer: Lord, when my mind leaps from problem to problem, help me to turn from my problem and focus on your presence and your promises. To turn to your word which is a light to my feet and a lamp to my path. Your word never returns void. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
