Acts‬ ‭20 : 35‬

“In everything I showed you that by working hard in this manner you must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He Himself said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’ ” ‭‭Acts‬ ‭20 : 35‬ ‭NASB‬‬

In life we try to do the best we can, but do we try to help others? This scripture says it’s better to give than receive. Do we live by that example? Today’s prayer is that we will get what we need by helping others get what they need. We are blessed to be a blessing ………. 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 IS WITH YOU. | ZEPHANIAH 3 : 17, PSALM 73 : 23 – 26

https://youtu.be/Xm_9XDYO9wI

“GOD IS WITH YOU. These four words are like a safety net, protecting you from falling into despair. Because you are human, you will always have ups and downs in your life experience. But the promise of GOD’S Presence limits how far down you can go. Sometimes you may feel as if you are in a free fall, when people or things you had counted on let you down. Yet as soon as you remember that GOD is with you, your perspective changes radically. Instead of bemoaning your circumstances, you can look to The LORD for help. You recall that not only is GOD with you, GOD is holding you by your right hand. The LORD guides you with HIS counsel, and afterward The LORD will take you into Glory. This is exactly the perspective you need: the reassurance of GOD’S Presence, and the glorious hope of heaven.”

Scripture

“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 

Yet I am always with you; you hold me by my right hand. You guide me with your counsel, and afterward you will take me into glory. Whom have I in heaven but you? And earth has nothing I desire besides you. My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. PSALM 73 : 23 – 26

Prayer

Prayer: Lord thank you for promising to always be with me, no matter what. Help me to see things from your perspective. This world is not my true home, and my soul longs to be with you in Heaven. Until then, fill me with your peace and joy and strength for today. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Psalm‬ ‭17 : 1‬

“Hear me, Lord, my plea is just; listen to my cry. Hear my prayer— it does not rise from deceitful lips.” ‭‭Psalm‬ ‭17 : 1‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Are your prayers just? Are your prayers so transparent that there is such naked truth? This Psalm is a pure plea from a pure heart, as our prayers should be. I believe some prayers are self instead of correction / deliverance. Today’s prayer is pure from my heart I pray that we all would speak to GOD with a pure transparent heart! That we would be stripped down naked and totally innocent of what we want!!! GOD is just and GOD always answers our prayers if they are truly needed …… 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

TAKE TIME TO BE STILL in GOD’S Presence. | PSALM 46 : 10, NUMBERS 6 : 25 – 26

https://youtu.be/3YvxBkit3rE

“TAKE TIME TO BE STILL in GOD’S Presence. The more hassled you feel, the more you need this sacred space of communion with The LORD. Breathe slowly and deeply. Relax in GOD’S Holy Presence while HIS Face shines upon you. This is how you receive GOD’S Peace, which GOD always proffers to you. Imagine the pain The LORD feels when HIS children tie themselves up in anxious knots, ignoring HIS gift of Peace. The LORD, JESUS CHRIST died a criminal’s death to secure this blessing for you. Receive it gratefully; hide it in your heart. The LORD’S Peace is an inner treasure, growing within you as you trust in GOD. Therefore, circumstances cannot touch it. Be still, enjoying Peace in GOD’S Presence.”

Scripture

“Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.” PSALM 46 : 10 

“The LORD make his face shine upon you and be gracious to you; the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace.” NUMBERS 6 : 25 – 26

Prayer

Prayer: God help me to make time to be still in your presence. I desperately need this time with you each day so you can fill me with your peace, your promises, and your perspective. In Jesus’ precious name. Amen.

2 Thessalonians‬ ‭2‬ :‭ 16 – 17‬

May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who loved us and by his grace gave us eternal encouragement and good hope, encourage your hearts and strengthen you in every good deed and word. 2 Thessalonians‬ ‭2‬ :‭ 16 – 17‬ NIV

What is encouraging to you? The Word encourages means to give support, confidence, and hope. GOD has given us encouragement through HIS SON JESUS CHRIST and that’s all we need. Today’s prayer is that we stay focused on the encouraging promise that JESUS CHRIST gave us, don’t look to the world for hope, look to The LORD for eternal hope …….. Be Blessed

THANK GOD for the conditions that are requiring you to be still. | ZECHARIAH 2 : 13, ISAIAH 30 : 15, 2 CORINTHIANS 12 : 9

https://youtu.be/z9e-aXr5X1k

“THANK GOD for the conditions that are requiring you to be still. Do not spoil these quiet hours by wishing them away, waiting impatiently to be active again. Some of the greatest works in GOD’S kingdom have been done from sick beds and prison cells. Instead of resenting the limitations of a weakened body, search for The LORD’S way in the midst of these very circumstances. Limitations can be liberating when your strongest desire is living close to GOD. Quietness and trust enhance your awareness of The LORD’S Presence with you. Do not despise these simple ways of serving The LORD. Although you feel cut off from the activity of the world, your quiet trust makes a powerful statement in spiritual realms. GOD’S Strength and Power show themselves most effective in weakness.”

Scripture

“Be still before the LORD, all mankind, because he has roused himself from his holy dwelling.” ZECHARIAH 2 : 13 

This is what the Sovereign LORD, the Holy One of Israel, says: “In repentance and rest is your salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength, but you would have none of it.” ISAIAH 30 : 15 

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 of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me 2 CORINTHIANS 12 : 9

Prayer

Prayer: Lord thank you for the conditions that require me to be still and rest and listen to you. Slow me down when I need this reminder. May your power and strength show themselves most effectively in my weakness. 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

PEACE BE WITH YOU! | JOHN 20 : 19, 21, JOHN 14 : 27

https://youtu.be/VbFqCdzaAlo

“PEACE BE WITH YOU! Ever since the resurrection, this has been The LORD’S watchword to those who yearn for HIM. As you sit quietly, let GOD’S Peace settle over you and enfold you in HIS loving Presence. To provide this radiant Peace for you, The LORD, JESUS CHRIST died a criminal’s death. Receive The LORD’S Peace abundantly and thankfully. It is a rare treasure, dazzling in delicate beauty yet strong enough to withstand all onslaughts. Wear The LORD’S Peace with regal dignity. It will keep your heart and mind close to GOD.”

Scripture

On the evening of that first day of the week, when the disciples were together, with the doors locked for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you!” . . . Again Jesus said, “Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.” JOHN 20 : 19, 21 

“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.” JOHN 14 : 27

Prayer

Prayer: Lord thank you for your peace that surpasses understanding. No matter my circumstances, what a precious gift of peace you offer me. As I sit quietly in your presence, let your Spirit cover me with the fruits of the Spirit – love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Galatians‬ ‭6 ‬: ‭4‬

Pay careful attention to your own work, for then you will get the satisfaction of a job well done, and you won’t need to compare yourself to anyone else. ‭Galatians‬ ‭6 ‬: ‭4‬ NLT

I see so many people trying to please everyone in all they do, you will bring continuous disappointment to yourself living that way. Human nature is to be jealous and full of envy. GOD on the other hand knows what you do, HE knows your heart. Today I pray that we would all work unto The LORD in all we do for that will bring true satisfaction …….. Be Blessed

Philippians‬ ‭4‬ :‭ 11‬ NLT

Not that I was ever in need, for I have learned how to be content with whatever I have. ‭Philippians‬ ‭4‬ :‭ 11‬ NLT

Like Paul we should always be content in the current situation we are in. Paul lived a life that by today’s standards would be all over the map, he killed Christians, arrested the Christians, but yet GOD called him in the highest way. Today I pray that we would all be content with where we are, not complacent but content because GOD has a greater plan for us ……. Be Blessed !!
