ANXIETY IS A RESULT OF envisioning the future without GOD | LUKE 12 : 22 – 26, EPHESIANS 3 : 20 – 21

https://youtu.be/ozohJ3SeDDw

“ANXIETY IS A RESULT OF envisioning the future without GOD. So the best defense against worry is staying in communication with GOD. When you turn your thoughts toward GOD, you can think much more positively. Remember to listen, as well as to speak, making your thoughts a dialogue with The LORD. If you must consider upcoming events, follow these rules: 1) Do not linger in the future, because anxieties sprout up like mushrooms when you wander there. 2) Remember the promise of The LORD’S continual Presence; include GOD in any imagery that comes to mind. This mental discipline does not come easily, because you are accustomed to being god of your fantasies. However, the reality of GOD’S Presence with you, now and forevermore, outshines any fantasy you could ever imagine.”

Scripture

Then Jesus said to his disciples: “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; or about your body, what you will wear. Life is more than food, and the body more than clothes. Consider the ravens: They do not sow or reap, they have no storeroom or barn; yet God feeds them. And how much more valuable you are than birds! Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life? Since you cannot do this very little thing, why do you worry about the rest?” LUKE 12 : 22 – 26 

 Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen. EPHESIANS 3 : 20 – 21

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, when I start to worry about the future, remind me that You are already there. Help me stay close to You in every thought and conversation, trusting Your presence to quiet my anxiety and fill me with peace. Amen.

John 14 : 6

Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. John 14 : 6 NKJV

Jesus Christ said “I am the way” the way to eternal life is through salvation in Jesus  Christ which is a gift!!! Not of man’s effort. Jesus said “I am the truth” this means that every spoken word from HIM is absolute!!!! We should strive to be like HIM. The LORD said “I am the life” there is no life worth living aside from Jesus Christ !!!! HE is our comfort, counselor , best friend, our everything. Today meditate on the gift of salvation and give thanks for that unconditional love ……. Be Blessed!!!

There are signs all around us, from government to what you see on Tv!!! Open eyes know what’s coming closed eyes are our responsibility to help open. To witness to someone is not to preach at them but to preach to them!!!! Today’s prayer is that we would love all and I mean all!!!! Let GOD sort the rest out in HIS time ….. Be Blessed

LOOK TO GOD CONTINUALLY for help, comfort, and companionship. | PSALM 34 : 4 – 6, PSALM 105 : 4, 2 CORINTHIANS 1 : 3 – 4

https://youtu.be/mbmquQw58GA

“LOOK TO GOD CONTINUALLY for help, comfort, and companionship. Because GOD is always by your side, the briefest glance can connect you with GOD. When you look to GOD for help, it flows freely from HIS Presence. This recognition of your need for The LORD, in small matters as well as in large ones, keeps you spiritually alive. When you need comfort, The LORD loves to enfold you in HIS arms. The LORD enables you not only to feel comforted but also to be a channel through whom HE comforts others. Thus you are doubly blessed, because a living channel absorbs some of whatever flows through it. GOD’S constant Companionship is the “pièce de résistance”: the summit of salvation blessings. No matter what losses you experience in your life, no one can take away this glorious gift.”

Scripture

I sought the LORD, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears. Those who look to him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame. This poor man called, and the LORD heard him; he saved him out of all his troubles. PSALM 34 : 4 – 6 

Look to the LORD and his strength; seek his face always. PSALM 105 : 4 

Prayer

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God. 2 CORINTHIANS 1 : 3 – 4

Prayer: Lord, thank You for being my constant help, comfort, and companion. Teach me to look to You in every moment, big or small, and let Your comfort flow through me so I can share Your love and peace with others.

‭Isaiah‬ ‭53‬ : ‭4 – 5

Yet it was our weaknesses he carried; it was our sorrows that weighed him down. And we thought his troubles were a punishment from God, a punishment for his own sins! But he was pierced for our rebellion, crushed for our sins. He was beaten so we could be whole. He was whipped so we could be healed. ‭Isaiah‬ ‭53‬ : ‭4 – 5‬ NLT

Reality check! We sometimes think life is unfair, we complain about the most trivial things, we exchange our thankfulness of life in general for what? Today I pray that we would all remember the gift we were given when JESUS CHRIST, The LORD, so graciously went to The Cross in our place, that gift was Love and Life ……. 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

TRY TO STAY CONSCIOUS OF GOD as you go step by step through this day. | MATTHEW 28 : 20, HEBREWS 12 : 1 – 2

https://youtu.be/veCtE2qN11A

“TRY TO STAY CONSCIOUS OF GOD as you go step by step through this day. The LORD’S Presence with you is both a promise and a protection. JESUS CHRIST, The LORD’S final statement just before HE ascended into heaven was: “Surely I am with you always”. That promise was for all of The LORD’S followers, without exception. The promise of GOD’S Presence is a powerful protection. As you journey through your life, there are numerous pitfalls along the way. Many voices clamor for your attention, enticing you to go their way. A few steps away from your true path are pits of self-pity and despair, plateaus of pride and self-will. If you take your eyes off GOD and follow another’s way, you are in grave danger. Even well-meaning friends can lead you astray if you let them usurp The LORD’S place in your life. The way to stay on the path of Life is to keep your focus on GOD. Awareness of GOD’S Presence is your best protection.”

Scripture

“And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” MATTHEW 28 : 20

Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. HEBREWS 12 : 1 – 2

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, help me stay aware of Your Presence with me throughout the day today. Keep my eyes fixed on You so I don’t wander into temptation, distraction or discouragement, and let Your nearness be my protection and my peace. Amen.

Philippians‬ ‭4‬ :‭ 11

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! 

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

BE PREPARED TO SUFFER FOR GOD, in HIS Name. | JAMES 1 : 2 – 4,PSALM 107 : 21 – 22

https://youtu.be/YZDbscRDnSo

“BE PREPARED TO SUFFER FOR GOD, in HIS Name. All suffering has meaning in The LORD’S kingdom. Pain and problems are opportunities to demonstrate your trust in GOD. Bearing your circumstances bravely—even thanking GOD for them—is one of the highest forms of praise. This sacrifice of thanksgiving rings golden-toned bells of Joy throughout heavenly realms. On earth also, your patient suffering sends out ripples of good tidings in ever-widening circles. When suffering strikes, remember that GOD is sovereign and that The LORD can bring good out of everything. Do not try to run from pain or hide from problems. Instead, accept adversity in The LORD’S Name, offering it up to GOD for HIS purposes. Thus, your suffering gains meaning and draws you closer to GOD. Joy emerges from the ashes of adversity through your trust and thankfulness.”

Scripture

Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. JAMES 1 : 2 – 4 

Let them give thanks to the LORD for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for men. Let them sacrifice thank offerings and tell of his works with songs of joy. PSALM 107 : 21 – 22 

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, when I face pain or hardship, help me to trust You instead of running from it. Teach me to offer my struggles to You with a thankful heart, believing You can bring good from every trial and fill me with your joy even in the midst of suffering. Amen.

‭‭Acts ‭10 : 34‬

“Then Peter replied, “I see very clearly that God shows no favoritism.” ‭‭Acts ‭10 : 34‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Just as GOD sees no measure of sin HE also shows no favoritism. It has always amazed me how GOD has the same love for me as he does a mass murderer!!! Wow, think of that one. GOD wants all of HIS creation to know HIM and in the end not perish. Today’s prayer is that we would understand the fullness of GOD’S love and strive to show that same love and mercy 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
