‭‭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 say 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

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

GOD CONTINUALLY CALLS YOU to closeness with HIM. – PSALM 131 : 2, PSALM 21 : 6, PSALM 37 : 7

GOD CONTINUALLY CALLS YOU to closeness with HIM. – PSALM 131 : 2, PSALM 21 : 6, PSALM 37 : 7 (https://youtu.be/6CTQOOTWR3I)

“GOD CONTINUALLY CALLS YOU to closeness with HIM. GOD knows the depth and breadth of your need for HIM. The LORD can read the emptiness of your thoughts when they wander away from HIM. GOD offers rest for your soul, as well as refreshment for your mind and body. As you increasingly find fulfillment in The LORD, other pleasures become less important. Knowing GOD intimately is like having a private wellspring of Joy within you. This spring flows freely from The LORD’S throne of grace, so your Joy is independent of circumstances. Waiting in GOD’S Presence keeps you connected to GOD, aware of all that HE offers you. If you feel any deficiency, you need to refocus your attention on The LORD. This is how you trust GOD in the moments of your life.”

But I have stilled and quieted my soul; like a weaned child with its mother, like a weaned child is my soul within me. PSALM 131 : 2

Surely you have granted him eternal blessings and made him glad with the joy of your presence. PSALM 21 : 6

Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him; do not fret when men succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes. PSALM 37 : 7

Prayer: Lord keep me close to you, where there is rest for my soul and refreshment for my mind and body. When my mind wanders anxiously, remind me to bring it back to its center in Christ. Where you fill me with joy and peace independent of my circumstances. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

EXPECT TO ENCOUNTER ADVERSITY in your life, remembering that you live in a deeply fallen world. – REVELATION 19 : 1, PSALM 91 : 1

https://youtu.be/lKVfqX2BUv8

EXPECT TO ENCOUNTER ADVERSITY , remember that you live in a fallen world. REV 19:1, PSA 91:1 (https://youtu.be/lKVfqX2BUv8)

“EXPECT TO ENCOUNTER ADVERSITY in your life, remembering that you live in a deeply fallen world. Stop trying to find a way that circumvents difficulties. The main problem with an easy life is that it masks your need for GOD. When you became a Christian, The LORD infused HIS very Life into you, empowering you to live on a supernatural plane by depending on GOD. Anticipate coming face to face with impossibilities: situations totally beyond your ability to handle. This awareness of your inadequacy is not something you should try to evade. It is precisely where GOD wants you—the best place to encounter GOD is in HIS Glory and Power. When you see armies of problems marching toward you, cry out to GOD! Allow GOD to fight for you. Watch The LORD working on your behalf, as you rest in the shadow of GOD’S Almighty Presence.”

After this I heard what sounded like the roar of a great multitude in heaven shouting: “Hallelujah! Salvation and glory and power belong to our God, . . .” REVELATION 19 : 1

He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. PSALM 91 : 1

Prayer: God, thank you for allowing me to be in situations beyond my capabilities so I can rely on you to fill in the gaps and fight my battles for me. Over and over you prove yourself faithful and trustworthy. Thank you for being my Lord and Savior. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

2 Timothy‬ ‭3‬:‭2-4‬

For people will love only themselves and their money. They will be boastful and proud, scoffing at God, disobedient to their parents, and ungrateful. They will consider nothing sacred. They will be unloving and unforgiving; they will slander others and have no self-control. They will be cruel and hate what is good. They will betray their friends, be reckless, be puffed up with pride, and love pleasure rather than God. 2 Timothy‬ ‭3‬:‭2-4‬ NLT

Sound familiar ? Hmmmm could this be the world we live in today? These words were written thousands of years ago but yet they describe exactly what the world is going through today. Christians it is time to stand firm and understand the word, be fruit bearing in a way that people want to be like you, not like this broken world…..today I pray that we all would understand the brokenness of this world and give thanks to The Lord that we can see through the trials, not look at them…….Be Blessed & remember to be a blessing to others

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

2 Peter 1:2-3

Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, 2 Peter 1:2-3 NKJV

How could we ever be worried about anything ? The knowledge and the promise of God should bring us the biggest feeling of peace. Today I pray that all would rest in the promises of The Lord and sit back and trust that all things work for the greater in those who love The Lord

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

FIND GOD in the midst of the maelstrom. – PHILIPPIANS 2 : 9 – 11, ISAIAH 43 : 1

https://youtu.be/je7Bc50QoME

FIND GOD in the midst of the maelstrom. – PHILIPPIANS 2 : 9 – 11, ISAIAH 43 : 1 (https://youtu.be/je7Bc50QoME)

“FIND GOD in the midst of the maelstrom. Sometimes events whirl around you so quickly that they become a blur. Whisper GOD’S Name in recognition that HE is still with you. Without skipping a beat in the activities that occupy you, you find strength and Peace through praying The LORD’S Name. Later, when the happenings have run their course, you can talk with GOD more fully. Accept each day just as it comes to you. Do not waste your time and energy wishing for a different set of circumstances. Instead, trust The LORD enough to yield to HIS design and purposes. Remember that nothing can separate you from GOD’S loving Presence; you are The LORD’S.”

Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. PHILIPPIANS 2 : 9 – 11

But now, this is what the LORD says— he who created you, O Jacob, he who formed you, O Israel: “Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine. ISAIAH 43 : 1

Prayer: Lord, help me to whisper your name when things start to spin out of control so I can replace my anxious thoughts with your strength and peace. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

2 Chronicles‬ ‭7:14

“Then if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and restore their land.” 2 Chronicles‬ ‭7:14‬ ‭NLT‬‬

This scripture speaks volume! As believers I have news! None of us are perfect. The day by day trials we all experience are not any different from non-believers, the difference is we have Jesus to fight our battles if we set aside our pride. Today’s prayer is that we would hand our battles over to the Lord for he has already won the battle and he is faithful to fight our battles for us if we let him. Pray hard and seek his face, ask him to forgive you from anything that is not of him and remember you are the righteousness of God through Christ Jesus……..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

MEET GOD in early morning splendor. – ISAIAH 40 : 31, PSALM 27 : 4, PHILIPPIANS 4 : 8

https://youtu.be/JcjJxGnsFxA

MEET GOD in early morning splendor. – ISAIAH 40 : 31, PSALM 27 : 4, PHILIPPIANS 4 : 8 (https://youtu.be/JcjJxGnsFxA)

“MEET GOD in early morning splendor. GOD eagerly awaits you here. In the stillness of this holy time with GOD, HE renews your strength and saturates you with Peace. While others turn over for extra sleep or anxiously tune in to the latest news, you commune with the Creator of the universe. GOD has awakened in your heart a strong desire to know HIM. This longing originated in GOD, though it now burns brightly in you. When you seek The LORD’S Face in response to HIS Love-call, both of you are blessed. This is a deep mystery, designed more for your enjoyment than for your understanding. GOD is not a dour God who discourages pleasure. The LORD delights in your enjoyment of everything that is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, admirable. Think on these things, and GOD’S Light in you will shine brighter day by day.”

But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. ISAIAH 40 : 31

One thing I ask of the LORD, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple. PSALM 27 : 4

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable— if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. PHILIPPIANS 4 : 8

Prayer: Lord, thank you for renewing my strength and soaking me in your peace when I spend time with you. You are a good, good Father. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Psalms 94:18 – 19

If I say, “My foot slips,” Your mercy, O Lord, will hold me up. In the multitude of my anxieties within me, Your comforts delight my soul. Psalms 94:18 – 19 NKJV

Have you ever had one of those days like you just feel like giving up? I know I have and the rest of us also. The Lord says he is there to comfort us and delight our soul. Today remember all the troubles are just temporary and The Lord will never let anything happen to us that we can not get through…… Give thanks today and be a blessing……….

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

THE LORD IS THE GOD OF ALL TIME and all that is. – PSALM 55 : 17, PSALM 32 : 6, PSALM 62 : 8

https://youtu.be/qXtvqFfgQuM

THE LORD IS THE GOD OF ALL TIME and all that is. – PSALM 55 : 17, PSALM 32 : 6, PSALM 62 : 8 (https://youtu.be/qXtvqFfgQuM)

“THE LORD IS THE GOD OF ALL TIME and all that is. Seek GOD not only in morning quietness but consistently throughout the day. Do not let unexpected problems distract you from GOD’S Presence. Instead, talk with GOD about everything, and watch confidently to see what The LORD will do. Adversity need not interrupt your communion with GOD. When things go “wrong,” you tend to react as if you’re being punished. Instead of this negative response, try to view difficulties as blessings in disguise. Make GOD your Refuge by pouring out your heart to HIM, trusting in The LORD at all times.”

Evening, morning and noon I cry out in distress, and he hears my voice. PSALM 55 : 17

Therefore let everyone who is godly pray to you while you may be found; surely when the mighty waters rise, they will not reach him. PSALM 32 : 6

Trust in him at all times, O people; pour out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge. PSALM 62 : 8

Prayer: Lord, I want to make you my refuge, trusting you at all times – morning, noon, and night. When I forget, gently remind me you are with me and you promise to use everything for good. I trust you Lord. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
