A THANKFUL ATTITUDE opens windows of heaven. – HABAKKUK 3 : 17 – 18, PSALM 46:1

https://youtu.be/s7Kust3vdhE

“A THANKFUL ATTITUDE opens windows of heaven. Spiritual blessings fall freely onto you through those openings into eternity. Moreover, as you look up with a grateful heart, you get glimpses of Glory through those windows. You cannot yet live in heaven, but you can experience foretastes of your ultimate home. Such samples of heavenly fare revive your hope. Thankfulness opens you up to these experiences, which then provide further reasons to be grateful. Thus, your path becomes an upward spiral: ever increasing in gladness. Thankfulness is not some sort of magic formula; it is the language of Love, which enables you to communicate intimately with GOD. A thankful mind-set does not entail a denial of reality with its plethora of problems. Instead, it rejoices in The LORD, your Savior, in the midst of trials and tribulations. The LORD is your refuge and strength, an ever-present and well-proved help in trouble.”

Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will be joyful in God my Savior. HABAKKUK 3 : 17 – 18

God is our refuge and strength,a very present help in trouble.” PSALM 46:1

Prayer: Lord no matter what goes in this week help me to have a thankful mind-set. To praise you on the mountain top and in the valley. May you be my focal point this Thanksgiving week and may I reflect Christ to everyone I encounter. 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

1 John‬ ‭4:4

“But you belong to God, my dear children. You have already won a victory over those people, because the Spirit who lives in you is greater than the spirit who lives in the world.” 1 John‬ ‭4:4‬ ‭NLT‬‬

The world can just straight out kick your butt!!! But will you let it? This scripture tells us that greater is he that is in us (Jesus) than he who is in the world (Satan). Day by day can be rough but we have to confess this scripture when the trials arise. Today’s prayer is that we would not become prisoners to the evil ways of the world and fully understand our eternal future……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

Proverbs‬ ‭29:11

“A fool vents all his feelings, But a wise man holds them back.” Proverbs‬ ‭29:11‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Do you vent about everything? Or do you take it to the Lord? This proverb calls venting foolish, but to hold the feelings back is wise. Today’s prayer is that we would not vent! Venting becomes gossip and I believe this is displeasing to God, take your issues to God that is the wise choice…….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

LEAVE OUTCOMES UP TO GOD. – PSALM 27 : 13 – 14, EXODUS 15 : 13

https://youtu.be/zJAZGu9bWqE

“LEAVE OUTCOMES UP TO GOD. Follow GOD wherever HE leads you, without worrying about how it will all turn out. Think of your life as an adventure, with The LORD as your Guide and Companion. Live in the now, concentrating on staying in step with GOD. When your path leads to a cliff, be willing to climb it with GOD’S help. When you come to a resting place, take time to be refreshed in GOD’S Presence. Enjoy the rhythm of a life lived close to GOD. You already know the ultimate destination of your journey: your entrance into heaven. So keep your focus on the path just before you, leaving outcomes up to The LORD.”

I am still confident of this: I will see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. Wait for the LORD; be strong and take heart and wait for the LORD. PSALM 27 : 13 – 14

“In your unfailing love you will lead the people you have redeemed. In your strength you will guide them to your holy dwelling.” EXODUS 15 : 13

Prayer: Jesus, help me to leave outcomes up to you without worry about how they will turn out. Keep my focus on the path just before me, enjoying the rhythm of a life lived close to you. Even when the path is steep, we will climb it together and I will take time to rest along the way as you refresh me in your presence. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Genesis‬ ‭12‬:‭2‬

I will make you a great nation; I will bless you And make your name great; And you shall be a blessing. Genesis‬ ‭12‬:‭2‬ NKJV

Are you Blessed? Are you blessing others? Abraham was told by God “I will bless you and you shall be a Blessing.” God was telling him don’t just take your blessings and keep them all to yourself, have you ever been in a situation where you didn’t know how it was going to work out and then all of a sudden the solution shows up? If you’re a blessing to others the blessings will show up in return. Don’t bless in expectation!!! Just know that God is a God of his word. Today I pray that we would all remember our blessings and be thankful, in return when you see someone in need return the blessing and give thanks that God has given you the means to bless someone………”Be Blessed & 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

2 Peter‬ ‭1:2‬

“May God give you more and more grace and peace as you grow in your knowledge of God and Jesus our Lord.” ‭‭2 Peter‬ ‭1:2‬ ‭NLT‬‬

The more we grow in the word of God the more we evolve , the more we evolve the more peace we will have in the promise!!! This scripture talks about growth! Are you growing? Or do you need a lot more water? Today’s prayer is that we all would strive to have that perfect peace of Jesus! the only way is to get tons of water and plenty of fertilizer….. 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

COME TO GOD, and rest in GOD’S Peace. – PHILIPPIANS 4 : 6 – 7, JOHN 7 : 38, EPHESIANS 5 : 18 – 20

https://youtu.be/cxGKdGs94sM

“COME TO GOD, and rest in GOD’S Peace. GOD’S Face is shining upon you, in rays of Peace transcending understanding. Instead of trying to figure things out yourself, you can relax in the Presence of the One who knows everything. As you lean on GOD in trusting dependence, you feel peaceful and complete. This is how The LORD designed you to live: in close communion with HIM. When you are around other people, you tend to cater to their expectations—real or imagined. You feel enslaved to pleasing them, and your awareness of GOD’S Presence grows dim. Your efforts to win their approval eventually exhaust you. You offer these people dry crumbs rather than the living water of GOD’S Holy Spirit flowing through you. This is not GOD’S way for you! Stay in touch with The LORD, even during your busiest moments. Let GOD’S Holy Spirit give you words of grace as you live in the Light of GOD’S Peace.”

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. PHILIPPIANS 4 : 6 – 7

“Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from within him.” JOHN 7 : 38

Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit. Speak to one another with psalms, hymns and spiritual songs. Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord, always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. EPHESIANS 5 : 18 – 20

Prayer: Lord, I come to you and rest in your peace. Help me to lean on you in trusting dependence, even during my busiest moments. May your Spirit give me words of grace as I live in the light of your peace today. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

1 Corinthians‬ ‭15:58‬

“So, my dear brothers and sisters, be strong and immovable. Always work enthusiastically for the Lord, for you know that nothing you do for the Lord is ever useless.” ‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭15:58‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Do you ever feel like your work for the Lord is all for nothing? Do you feel like you’re not reaching anyone? This scripture tells us that all of our witnessing is and will reach the people. We will probably never know what impact we may have had on someone, but the Lord knows. Today’s prayer is that we would never give up telling people what Jesus has done in our life and will do in theirs ……. Be Blessed

THERE IS NO CONDEMNATION for those who are in GOD. – ROMANS 8 : 1 – 2, ISAIAH 30 : 21, JOHN 10 : 27, PSALM 23 : 1 – 3

https://youtu.be/9Xyis1BjokE

“THERE IS NO CONDEMNATION for those who are in GOD. The law of the Spirit of Life has set you free from the law of sin and death. Not many Christians know how to live in this radical freedom, which is their birthright. JESUS CHRIST died to set you free; live freely in CHRIST! To walk along the path of freedom, you must keep your mind firmly fixed on The LORD. Many voices proclaim: “This is the way for you to go,” but only GOD’S voice tells you the true way. If you follow the way of the world with all its glitter and glamour, you will descend deeper and deeper into an abyss. Christian voices also can lead you astray: “Do this!” “Don’t do that!” “Pray this way!” “Don’t pray that way!” If you listen to all those voices, you will become increasingly confused. Be content to be a simple sheep, listening for GOD’S voice and following HIM. GOD will lead you into restful green pastures and guide you along paths of righteousness.”

Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit of life set me free from the law of sin and death. ROMANS 8 : 1 – 2

Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, “This is the way; walk in it.” ISAIAH 30 : 21

“My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.” JOHN 10 : 27

The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he restores my soul. He guides me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. PSALM 23 : 1 – 3

Prayer: Lord help me to be content to be a simple sheep, listening for your voice and following you. Thank you for dying in my place Jesus. You paid the ultimate price for my sin so I could be reconciled to God and be freed from the snares of sin. Help me to live like I’m free. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
