Daily Devotional Video 7/20/2020 – PSALM 42 : 1 – 2 , PSALM 34 : 5, PHILIPPIANS 2 : 15

https://youtu.be/ERrZRNtXgZA

“SEEK GOD’S FACE, and you will find all that you have longed for. The deepest yearnings of your heart are for intimacy with GOD. GOD knows, because HE designed you to desire HIM. Do not feel guilty about taking time to be still in GOD’S Presence. You are simply responding to the tugs of divinity within you. GOD made you in HIS image, and HE hid heaven in your heart. Your yearning for The LORD is a form of homesickness: longing for your true home in heaven. Do not be afraid to be different from other people. The path GOD has called you to travel is exquisitely right for you. The more closely you follow GOD leading, the more fully GOD can develop your gifts. To follow GOD wholeheartedly, you must relinquish your desire to please other people. However, your closeness to GOD will bless others by enabling you to shine brightly in this dark world.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, O God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When can I go and meet with God? PSALM 42 : 1 – 2

Those who look to him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame. PSALM 34 : 5

. . . so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe. PHILIPPIANS 2 : 15

Prayer: Lord help me to take time to be still each day in your presence. It is there I find true rest and refreshment for my soul. As the dear pants for steams of water, so my soul pants for you. Help me to fill myself with you and you alone. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Acts 20:24

But my life is worth nothing to me unless I use it for finishing the work assigned me by the Lord Jesus—the work of telling others the Good News about the wonderful grace of God. (‭Acts of the Apostles‬ ‭20‬:‭24‬ NLT)

Grace is underserved favor, Grace is everlasting forgiveness,Grace is Jesus Christ. This scripture talks about how can you not tell everyone you meet about Grace, what good is your life if you don’t tell how you got it? Today I pray that we all would tell everyone about Gods great Grace and his name is 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

1 John‬ ‭4:16‬

“So we have come to know and to believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.” ‭‭1 John‬ ‭4:16‬ ‭ESV‬‬

What the world is missing is “True Love” and what is the meaning of true love? True love is the love that God displayed for us by sending his son to the cross for all of our sin. True love is to have the heart of a servant, to put others before yourself, to be kind in all circumstances. Today’s prayer is that we all would set aside all of the hustle of the world and slow down enough to recognize what love is and show it to all……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 7/17/2020 – SONG OF SONGS 2 : 13, LUKE 10 : 42

https://youtu.be/SLQmoHf_qqE

“COME AWAY WITH GOD for a while. The world, with its non-stop demands, can be put on hold. Most people put GOD on hold, rationalizing that someday they will find time to focus on The LORD. But the longer people push GOD into the background of their lives, the harder it is for them to find HIM. You live among people who glorify busyness; they have made time a tyrant that controls their lives. Even those who know The LORD as Savior tend to march to the tempo of the world. They have bought into the illusion that more is always better: more meetings, more programs, more activity. GOD has called you to follow HIM on a solitary path, making time alone with GOD your highest priority and deepest Joy. It is a pathway largely unappreciated and often despised. However, you have chosen the better thing, which will never be taken away from you. Moreover, as you walk close to GOD, HE can bless others through you.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

“The fig tree forms its early fruit; the blossoming vines spread their fragrance. Arise, come, my darling; my beautiful one, come with me.” SONG OF SONGS 2 : 13

“But only one thing is needed. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.” LUKE 10 : 42

Personal Note: I can testify from 1st hand experience of the improvement and enrichment in my life and the kind of man I am since I started spending daily time with The LORD in prayer and Bible study at what was a very low point in my life due to my own mistakes almost 9 years ago. Before then I was a Christian but like many didn’t have a “personal relationship” with The LORD

Prayer: Lord help me to make time alone with you and let that be my highest priority and deepest joy each day. Don’t let anything stand in the way of this precious time with you. Fill me with all peace and joy today by the power of the Holy Spirit. Use me to be a blessing to others. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Romans‬ ‭13:11‬

“And do this, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep; for now our salvation is nearer than when we first believed.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭13:11‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Are we in the end times? Is the Lord coming soon? Are you ready if he shows up tomorrow? I do not know the answers too these questions but I believe they are all possible with the condition of the world. Today’s prayer is that we would get closer too God than we have ever been! Repent and make a U turn from your ways and get back on the road of righteousness…… Be Blessed and always 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

Daily Devotional Video 7/16/2020 – PSALM 40 : 2 – 3, PSALM 42 : 5, PSALM 147 : 11

https://youtu.be/mC9xwbLkUVk

“SELF – PITY IS A SLIMY, BOTTOMLESS PIT. Once you fall in, you tend to go deeper and deeper into the mire. As you slide down those slippery walls, you are well on your way to depression, and the darkness is profound. Your only hope is to look up and see the Light of GOD’S Presence shining down on you. Though the Light looks dim from your perspective, deep in the pit, those rays of hope can reach you at any depth. While you focus on GOD in trust, you rise ever so slowly out of the abyss of despair. Finally, you can reach up and grasp The LORD’S hand. GOD will pull you out into the Light again. The LORD will gently cleanse you, washing off the clinging mire. GOD will cover you with HIS righteousness and walk with you down the path of Life. ” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand. He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see and fear and put their trust in the LORD. PSALM 40 : 2 – 3

Why are you cast down, O my soul? And why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God, for I shall yet praise Him For the help of His countenance. PSALM 42 : 5 (NKJV)

The LORD delights in those who fear him, who put their hope in his unfailing love. PSALM 147 : 11

Prayer: Lord thank you that your rays of hope can reach me and meet me where I’m at. When I start down the path of self-pity, help me to count all the ways you’ve taken care of me in the past and are still doing and reach up and grab your hand. In you I am safe and loved. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

“DO NOT WORRY ABOUT Tomorrow. This is not a suggestion, but a command from GOD. GOD divided time into days and nights, so that you would have manageable portions of life to handle. GOD’S grace is sufficient for you, but it’s sufficiency is for only one day at a time. When you worry about the future, you heap day upon day of troubles onto your flimsy frame. You stagger under this heavy load, which GOD never intended you to carry. Throw off this oppressive burden with one quick thrust of trust in GOD. Anxious thoughts meander about and criss-cross in your brain, but trusting GOD brings you directly into The LORD’S Presence. As you thus affirm your faith, shackles of worry fall off instantly. Enjoy GOD’S Presence continually by trusting GOD at all times. ” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. MATTHEW 6 : 34

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 about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. 2 CORINTHIANS 12 : 9

Trust in Him at all times, you people; Pour out your heart before Him; God is a refuge for us. PSALM 62 : 8 (NKJV)

Prayer: Lord help me to trust you more and worry less. Help me to focus on doing everything today with you. You give me the exact amount I need for each day – enough strength, enough energy for today. Help me to keep my eyes and mind fixed on you today, the author and perfecter of my faith. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Numbers‬ ‭6‬:‭24-26

‘May the LORD bless you and protect you. May the LORD smile on you and be gracious to you. May the LORD show you his favor and give you his peace.’ (‭Numbers‬ ‭6‬:‭24-26‬ NLT)

This blessing was prayed for the people of Israel by Aaron, and this prayer stands strong today for all of Gods children. Today I pray that you would feel the Lords blessings and protection, and that you would always feel him smiling upon you….Be Blessed 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

Daily Devotional Video 7/14/2020 – PSALM 37 : 23 – 24, PSALM 16 : 11

https://youtu.be/p_cgb8W_fdc

“KEEP WALKING with GOD along the path HE has chosen for you. Your desire to live close to GOD is a delight to HIS heart. The LORD could instantly grant you the spiritual riches you desire, but that is not HIS way for you. Together, GOD and you will forge a pathway up the high mountain. The journey is arduous at times, and you are weak. Someday you will dance light footed on the high peaks; but for now, your walk is often plodding and heavy. All GOD requires of you is to take the next step, clinging to HIS hand for strength and direction. Though the path is difficult and the scenery dull at the moment, there are sparkling surprises just around the bend. Stay on the path GOD has selected for you. It is truly the path of Life.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

If the LORD delights in a man’s way, he makes his steps firm; though he stumble, he will not fall, for the LORD upholds him with his hand. PSALM 37 : 23 – 24

You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore. PSALM 16 : 11 (NKJV)

Prayer: Lord help me to live close to you. Keep me walking along the path you have chosen for me and taking one step at a time as you reveal it. I trust your path and your plan for me Lord. Help me to enjoy the journey. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
