MEET GOD IN MORNING STILLNESS, while the earth is fresh with the dew of The LORD’S Presence. – PSALM 29 : 2, 1 PETER 1 : 8

MEET GOD IN STILLNESS, while the earth is fresh with the dew of HIS Presence. – PSA29:2, 1PET 1:8 (https://youtu.be/2EEIyUlQBO8)

“MEET GOD IN MORNING STILLNESS, while the earth is fresh with the dew of The LORD’S Presence. Worship GOD in the beauty of holiness. Sing love songs to GOD’S holy Name. As you give yourself to The LORD, HIS Holy Spirit dwells within you till you are flooded with divine Presence. The world’s way of pursuing riches is grasping and hoarding. You attain GOD’S riches by letting go and giving. The more you give yourself to GOD and HIS ways, the more GOD fills you with inexpressible, heavenly Joy.”

Give unto the LORD the glory due to His name; Worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness. PSALM 29 : 2 (NKJV)

Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy. 1 PETER 1 : 8

Prayer: Lord, I give myself to you anew today. As I do I feel your Spirit swelling within me, filling me with your peace and joy, until I am flooded with your presence. Help me attain your riches by letting go and giving. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

YOU CANNOT SERVE TWO MASTERS. – MATTHEW 6 : 24, REVELATION 2 : 4, EPHESIANS 3 : 16 – 17, PSALM 16 : 11

YOU CANNOT SERVE TWO MASTERS. – MATTHEW 6 : 24, REVELATION 2 : 4, EPHESIANS 3 : 16 – 17, PSALM 16:11 (https://youtu.be/w3OD239YkV8)

“YOU CANNOT SERVE TWO MASTERS. If GOD is truly your Master, you will desire to please GOD above all others. If pleasing people is your goal, you will be enslaved to them. People can be harsh taskmasters when you give them this power over you. If GOD is the Master of your life, GOD will also be your First Love. Your serving The LORD is rooted and grounded in The LORD’s vast, unconditional Love for you. The lower you bow down before GOD, the higher GOD lifts you up into intimate an relationship with HIM. The Joy of living in GOD’S Presence outshines all other pleasures. GOD wants you to reflect HIS joyous Light by living in increasing intimacy with HIM.”

“No one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money.” MATTHEW 6 : 24

Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken your first love. REVELATION 2 : 4

I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love. . . . EPHESIANS 3 : 16 – 17

You have made known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand. PSALM 16 : 11

Prayer: Lord help me to truly understand that the joy of living in your presence outshines all other pleasures this world could offer. To focus on pleasing you above people and reflecting your light in an increasingly dark world. A world desperate for a Savior. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

‭‭Matthew‬ ‭9:13

“But go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy and not sacrifice.’ For I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.”” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭9:13‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Do you think you’re not good enough? Do you think you have to get your act cleaned up before you can call upon the Lord? Jesus tells us he did not call for the righteous but the sinners to repent. Most of the Christians I know (including myself) could not have been further from God when they met him and most of them are the most on fire believers I know. Today’s prayer is that we would witness our testimony to those who do not believe and let them know Jesus is waiting with arms wide open no matter where they are…….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

LIVING IN DEPENDENCE ON GOD is the way to enjoy abundant life. – PROVERBS 29 : 25, JOHN 10 : 10

LIVING IN DEPENDENCE ON GOD is the way to enjoy abundant life. – PROVERBS 29 : 25, JOHN 10 : 10 (https://youtu.be/K0ZCLnziMnA)

“LIVING IN DEPENDENCE ON GOD is the way to enjoy abundant life. You are learning to appreciate tough times, because they amplify your awareness of GOD’S Presence. Tasks that you used to dread are becoming rich opportunities to enjoy GOD’S closeness. When you feel tired, you remember that The LORD is your Strength; you take pleasure in leaning on HIM. GOD is pleased by your tendency to turn to HIM more and more frequently, especially when you are alone. When you are with other people, you often lose sight of GOD’S Presence. Your fear of displeasing people puts you in bondage to them, and they become your primary focus. When you realize this has happened, whisper The LORD’S Name; this tiny act of trust brings GOD to the forefront of your consciousness, where HE belongs. As you bask in the blessing of GOD’S nearness, The LORD’S life can flow through you to others.”

This is abundant life! Fear of man will prove to be a snare, but whoever trusts in the LORD is kept safe. PROVERBS 29 : 25

“The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” JOHN 10 : 10

Prayer: God help me to live in dependence on you so that I can enjoy the abundant life, full of peace and joy, Jesus died for me to live. Help me to turn to you more and more frequently this week. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

1 Corinthians‬ ‭2:9‬

“However, as it is written: “What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived” — the things God has prepared for those who love him—” ‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭2:9‬ ‭NIV‬‬

This scripture reminds us that no matter how bad things seem, no matter how much we don’t see it happening God is always preparing the best for those who love him. Today’s prayer is that through the trials we would see triumph and through all we would praise the Lord of Lords….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

Psalm‬ ‭62:5-6‬

Word of the day
“Yes, my soul, find rest in God; my hope comes from him. Truly he is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will not be shaken.” Psalm‬ ‭62:5-6‬ ‭

Circumstances can consume your day and even your life. The key to peace is were it comes from. The Lord is the only true peace we have, to trust and depend on him is key. Today’s prayer is that our foundation would be the Lord! Don’t look at the problem, look through the problem the solution is on the other side waiting, Jesus the author and finisher of our faith…..Be Blessed

1 John‬ ‭2:5-6

“But if anyone obeys his word, love for God is truly made complete in them. This is how we know we are in him: Whoever claims to live in him must live as Jesus did.” ‭‭1 John‬ ‭2:5-6‬ ‭NIV‬‬

This scripture breaks it down in such simple terms it’s amazing. If someone asked you if you love God what would your response be? Of course it would be YES so if you love God don’t you want to try to please him at all times? To live like Jesus is to live a life that is pleasing to God, to have the heart of a servant. Today’s prayer is that we would wake up daily and start our day out by praying “Heavenly Father let me not serve myself today, but serve only you” let your will be done throughout my day and make this day not mine but yours” I believe this confession will help us all live more like 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

LET GOD TEACH YOU THANKFULNESS. – HEBREWS 12 : 28 – 29, PSALM 119 : 105

LET GOD TEACH YOU THANKFULNESS. – HEBREWS 12 : 28 – 29, PSALM 119 : 105 (https://youtu.be/wduDdWCHwVw)

“LET GOD TEACH YOU THANKFULNESS. Begin by acknowledging that everything—all your possessions and all that you are—belongs to GOD. The dawning of each new day is a gift from The LORD, not to be taken for granted. The earth is vibrantly alive with GOD’S blessings, giving vivid testimony to The LORD’S Presence. If you slow down your pace of life, you can find GOD anywhere. Some of The LORD’S most precious children have been laid aside in sick beds or shut away in prisons. Others have voluntarily learned the discipline of spending time alone with GOD. The secret of being thankful is learning to see everything from HIS perspective. The LORD’S world is your classroom. GOD’S Word is a lamp to your feet and a light for your path.”

Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe, for our “God is a consuming fire.” HEBREWS 12 : 28 – 29

Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path. PSALM 119 : 105

Prayer: Lord all that I am and all that I have belongs to you. My life is not my own. I surrender to you. Show me how you want me to spend my time, talents, and treasures. Thank you for this new day, help me not to take it for granted but to focus on the blessings you’ve provided all around me. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Romans 8:5

For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. Romans 8:5 NKJV

Living in the world today makes it tough to not conform to the ways of the world. It was never meant for the Christian to live like the world. In this scripture it says if you live by the flesh you will do things of the flesh such as lust, corruption, bad attitude, etc….. But the spirit within us is the spirit of Jesus and that spirit is perfect. Today’s prayer is to listen to what the spirit is telling you and confess with your mouth that you are perfected by the spirit that lives within you!!!! Watch how the fleshly desires fade away……..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

AS YOU LOOK into the day that stretches out before you, you see many choice-points along the way. – LAMENTATIONS 3 : 22 – 26, PSALM 34 : 8

https://youtu.be/bCQTuOeIIig

AS YOU LOOK into the day that stretches out before you, you see many choices.- LAM 3:22-26, PSA 34:8 (https://youtu.be/bCQTuOeIIig)

“AS YOU LOOK into the day that stretches out before you, you see many choice-points along the way. The myriad possibilities these choices present can confuse you. Draw your mind back to the threshold of this day, where GOD stands beside you, lovingly preparing you for what is ahead. You must make your choices one at a time, since each is contingent upon the decision that precedes it. Instead of trying to create a mental map of your path through this day, focus on GOD’S loving Presence with you. GOD will equip you as you go, so that you can handle whatever comes your way. Trust GOD to supply what you need when you need it.”

Because of the LORD’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. I say to myself, “The LORD is my portion; therefore I will wait for him.” The LORD is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him; it is good to wait quietly for the salvation of the LORD. LAMENTATIONS 3 : 22 – 26

Oh, taste and see that the LORD is good; Blessed is the man who trusts in Him! PSALM 34 : 8 (NKJV)

Prayer: Lord as I slow down and sit in your presence, reorient my mind to focus on you and not the myriad of choice-points that lie ahead. Thank you that your mercy is new every morning. You are my daily bread, my portion, my rock. And you are all I need. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
