GOD IS CALLING YOU to a life of thankfulness. – ISAIAH 6 : 3, 2 CORINTHIANS 5 : 7, 1 THESSALONIANS 5 : 18

https://youtu.be/c-iu3eFodfw

“GOD IS CALLING YOU to a life of thankfulness. GOD wants all your moments to be punctuated with thanksgiving. The basis for your gratitude is GOD’S sovereignty. GOD is the Creator and Controller of the universe. Heaven and earth are filled with The LORD’S glorious Presence. When you criticize or complain, you are acting as if you think you could run the world better than GOD does. From your limited human perspective, it may look as if The LORD is mismanaging things. But you don’t know what The LORD knows or see what HE sees. If GOD pulled back the curtain to allow you to view heavenly realms, you would understand much more. However, The LORD has designed you to live by faith, not by sight. GOD lovingly shields you from knowing the future or seeing into the spirit world. Acknowledge GOD’S sovereignty by giving thanks in all circumstances.”

Scripture

And they were calling to one another: “Holy, holy, holy is the LORD Almighty; the whole earth is full of his glory.” ISAIAH 6 : 3

We live by faith, not by sight. 2 CORINTHIANS 5 : 7

Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. 1 THESSALONIANS 5 : 18

Prayer

Prayer: God help me to live a life of thankfulness. If you did nothing else but die on the cross for my sins that would have been enough to give thanks and praise to you all the days of my life. But in your goodness you do more each day. Thank you Jesus. In your name I pray. Amen.

3 John‬ ‭1:4

“I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth.”
‭‭3 John‬ ‭1:4‬ ‭NIV‬‬

To make God smile is to walk in his ways! I believe when we try our best to do good whether or not we succeed it makes God smile (and yes we fail every day) thank God for the grace given to us. Today’s prayer is that we all would do our best to please God by our daily actions and show his love to everyone……..Be Blessed

TRUST GOD, and don’t be afraid. – ISAIAH 12 : 2, PSALM 61 : 2 – 4, 2 CORINTHIANS 3 : 18

https://youtu.be/0cEcH2tTlhU

“TRUST GOD, and don’t be afraid. Many things feel out of control. Your routines are not running smoothly. You tend to feel more secure when your life is predictable. Let GOD lead you to the rock that is higher than you and your circumstances. Take refuge in the shelter of The LORD’S wings, where you are absolutely secure. When you are shaken out of your comfortable routines, grip GOD’S hand tightly and look for growth opportunities. Instead of bemoaning the loss of your comfort, accept the challenge of something new. The LORD leads you on from glory to glory, making you fit for HIS kingdom. Say yes to the ways GOD works in your life. Trust GOD, and don’t be afraid.”

“Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. The LORD, the LORD, is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation.” ISAIAH 12 : 2

From the ends of the earth I call to you, I call as my heart grows faint; lead me to the rock that is higher than I. For you have been my refuge, a strong tower against the foe. I long to dwell in your tent forever and take refuge in the shelter of your wings. PSALM 61 : 2 – 4

But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord. 2 CORINTHIANS 3 : 18 (NKJV)

Prayer: Lord help me to say yes to the ways you work in my life. And when you take me out of my comfort zone, help me to grip your hand tightly and rely on your strength, your wisdom, and your Holy Spirit. With God all things are possible. In Jesus’ precious name. Amen.

    TRUSTING GOD is a moment-by-moment choice. – EXODUS 1 : 22 – 25, PSALM 31 : 14

    https://youtu.be/eUhbxHKD-6k

    “TRUSTING GOD is a moment-by-moment choice. GOD’S people have not always understood this truth. After GOD performed miracles in the wilderness, HIS chosen children trusted HIM intensely — but only temporarily. Soon the grumbling began again, testing GOD’S patience to the utmost. Isn’t it often the same way with you? You trust The LORD when things go well, when you see HIM working on your behalf. This type of trust flows readily within you, requiring no exertion of your will. When things go wrong, your trust-flow slows down and solidifies. You are forced to choose between trusting GOD intentionally or rebelling: resenting GOD’S ways with you. This choice constitutes a fork in the road. Stay on the path of Life with The LORD, enjoying HIS Presence. Choose to trust GOD in all circumstances.”

    Scripture

    Then Moses led Israel from the Red Sea and they went into the Desert of Shur. For three days they traveled in the desert without finding water. When they came to Marah, they could not drink its water because it was bitter. (That is why the place is called Marah.) So the people grumbled against Moses, saying, “What are we to drink?” Then Moses cried out to the LORD, and the LORD showed him a piece of wood. He threw it into the water, and the water became sweet. There the LORD made a decree and a law for them, and there he tested them. EXODUS 1 : 22 – 25

    But I trust in you, O LORD; I say, “You are my God.” PSALM 31 : 14

    Prayer

    Prayer: Lord, I want to trust You in all circumstances. From the highest mountains to the darkest valleys. You promise to be with me through it all. Help me to stay close to you as my rock, my strength, my everything – all the days of my life. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

    ‭‭Ezekiel‬ ‭37:1-5

    know.” Then he said to me, “Prophesy over these bones, and say to them, O dry bones, hear the word of the Lord. Thus says the Lord God to these bones: Behold, I will cause breath to enter you, and you shall live.” ‭‭Ezekiel‬ ‭37:1-5‬ ‭ESV

    Are your bones dry? Do you feel like there is so much more that you should be doing but don’t? Maybe you’re in the middle of the valley of dry bones. As Christians I believe we all go through a season where our walk with the Lord gets distracted by the world. The devil must be doing back flips when we put Jesus on the back burner for the things of the world!!!! Today’s prayer is that we all would make the commitment to dive into God’s word everyday and feel that breath come back into you. God’s word will weed out the distractions and let us lead a life that pleases the Lord…….Be Blessed

    THIS IS THE DAY THAT GOD HAS MADE. – PSALM 118 : 24, PHILIPPIANS 3 : 13 – 14

    https://youtu.be/2c6Nj7TEomc

    “THIS IS THE DAY THAT GOD HAS MADE. Rejoice and be glad in it. Begin the day with open hands of faith, ready to receive all that GOD is pouring into this brief portion of your life. Be careful not to complain about anything, even the weather, since GOD is the Author of your circumstances. The best way to handle unwanted situations is to thank The LORD for them. This act of faith frees you from resentment and frees GOD to work HIS ways into the situation, so that good emerges from it. To find Joy in this day, you must live within its boundaries. GOD knew what HE was doing when HE divided time into twenty-four-hour segments. GOD understands human frailty, and The LORD knows that you can bear the weight of only one day at a time. Do not worry about tomorrow or get stuck in the past. There is abundant Life in The LORD’S Presence today.”

    Scripture

    This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it. PSALM 118 : 24

    Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. PHILIPPIANS 3 : 13 – 14

    Prayer

    Prayer: Lord help me to begin today with open hands, ready to receive whatever you have for me, whether the path is smooth or bumpy. I trust you. Help me cling to your hand and remain grateful no matter what. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

    John‬ ‭13:15-17‬ ‭

    “I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you. Very truly I tell you, no servant is greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him. Now that you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them.” ‭‭John‬ ‭13:15-17‬ ‭NIV‬‬

    This scripture is a great reminder of how I always want to be, I have always prided myself on leading by example and not by dictatorship and I believe this is what Jesus is talking about here. Today’s prayer is that we would all put this scripture into place in our lives and please our Lord more and more….Be Blessed
