STOP TRYING TO WORK THINGS OUT before their times have come. – ECCLESIASTES 3 : 1, JOHN 16 : 33 (https://youtu.be/1RG3zFe6His)

“STOP TRYING TO WORK THINGS OUT before their times have come. Accept the limitations of living one day at a time. When something comes to your attention, ask GOD whether or not it is part of today’s agenda. If it isn’t, release it into GOD’S care and go on about today’s duties. When you follow this practice, there will be a beautiful simplicity about your life: a time for everything, and everything in its time. A life lived close to GOD is not complicated or cluttered. When your focus is on The LORD’S Presence, many things that once troubled you lose their power over you. Though the world around you is messy and confusing, remember that The LORD has overcome the world. GOD has told you these things, so that in HIM you may have Peace.”

There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven. ECCLESIASTES 3 : 1

“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” JOHN 16 : 33

Prayer: God help me to ask you when something on my mind is for today’s agenda. And if not, help me release it to you and let it go. A life lived close to you is not complicated or cluttered. Though the world is messy and confusing, I tuck myself in your sweet presence where all is well with my soul. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

1 Thessalonians 5:9

For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, I Thessalonians 5:9 NKJV

God’s plan for us starting way back in the garden was nothing but joy and perfect happiness, but sin came into the world and all that was damaged. God’s plan has not changed! That’s why he sent his son so that we could have that perfect peace. Today tell someone about the perfect peace of Jesus, tell someone what Jesus has done for you, tell someone that no matter how bad they have been that Jesus wants to give them that perfect peace………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

THE LORD IS A GOD WHO GIVES and gives and gives. – PHILIPPIANS 2 : 17, MARK 10 : 15, ISAIAH 26 : 3

THE LORD IS A GOD WHO GIVES and gives and gives. – PHILIPPIANS 2 : 17, MARK 10 : 15, ISAIAH 26 : 3 (https://youtu.be/zrHImBJfzFI)

“THE LORD IS A GOD WHO GIVES and gives and gives. When The LORD, Jesus Christ died for us on the cross, HE held back nothing; The LORD poured out HIS Life like a drink offering. Because giving is inherent in GOD’S nature, HE searches for people who are able to receive in full measure. To increase your intimacy with The LORD, the two traits you need the most are receptivity and attentiveness. Receptivity is opening up your innermost being to be filled with GOD’S abundant riches. Attentiveness is directing your gaze to The LORD: searching for GOD in all your moments. It is possible to stay your mind on GOD, as the prophet Isaiah wrote. Through such attentiveness you receive a glorious gift: GOD’S perfect Peace.”

But even if I am being poured out like a drink offering on the sacrifice and service coming from your faith, I am glad and rejoice with all of you. PHILIPPIANS 2 : 17

“I tell you the truth, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.” MARK 10 : 15

You will keep him in perfect peace, Whose mind is stayed on You, Because he trusts in You. ISAIAH 26 : 3 (NKJV)

Prayer: Lord, thank you for your extravagant generosity. Help me to be more like Jesus this week, to be open to whatever and wherever you lead, and attentive to your voice and leading. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Ephesians‬ ‭5‬:‭1-2

Imitate God, therefore, in everything you do, because you are his dear children. Live a life filled with love, following the example of Christ. He loved us and offered himself as a sacrifice for us, a pleasing aroma to God. Ephesians‬ ‭5‬:‭1-2‬ NLT

Are you trying to be more like God or the world? This scripture tells us to imitate God in all we do. I believe self checks are a part of our daily life to put in check the life we are living. Today I pray that we would be more like Jesus in all we do, say, and 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

Philippians‬ ‭4‬:‭9‬

Keep putting into practice all you learned and received from me—everything you heard from me and saw me doing. Then the God of peace will be with you. ‭Philippians‬ ‭4‬:‭9‬ NLT

Are you striving to live a life of victory? Are you doing your best to be an example of Christ ? We as Christians should all be. This scripture talks about putting all we have learned into practice, are you making a daily effort to practice? Today I pray that God would give us direction and correction when we stray off the path and help us all be the example he intends for us to be…….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

Matthew 6:31-34

So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. Matthew 6:31-34 NIV

How many times in a day do we worry about trivial things? This scripture talks about seeking the kingdom, I think so many times we seek the worldly things and that is where the spirit of fear comes in. Today I pray that we all would rest in the finished works of Jesus and know that he did it all at Calvary!!!!! He wants us to live a life of completeness, not a life of defeat……….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 THANKFULNESS TEMPER ALL YOUR THOUGHTS. – 1 CORINTHIANS 10 : 10, HEBREWS 12 : 28 – 29

LET THANKFULNESS TEMPER ALL YOUR THOUGHTS. – 1 CORINTHIANS 10 : 10, HEBREWS 12 : 28 – 29 (https://youtu.be/Y9wgEtFUI-0)

“LET THANKFULNESS TEMPER ALL YOUR THOUGHTS. A thankful mind-set keeps you in touch with GOD. The LORD hates it when HIS children grumble, casually despising HIS sovereignty. Thankfulness is a safeguard against this deadly sin. Furthermore, a grateful attitude becomes a grid through which you perceive life. Gratitude enables you to see the Light of GOD’S Presence shining on all your circumstances. Cultivate a thankful heart, for this glorifies GOD and fills you with Joy.”

And do not grumble, as some of them did—and were killed by the destroying angel. 1 CORINTHIANS 10 : 10

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

Prayer: Lord thank you for reminding me how important practicing gratitude is and taking inventory of my heart and thoughts. When a thought doesn’t align with your word, help me to recognize it, and take it captive by the power of the Holy Spirit. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

‭‭Psalm‬ ‭37:3-13

Trust in the Lord and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture. Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him and he will do this: He will make your righteous reward shine like the dawn, your vindication like the noonday sun. Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him; do not fret when people succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes. Refrain from anger and turn from wrath; do not fret—it leads only to evil. For those who are evil will be destroyed, but those who hope in the Lord will inherit the land. A little while, and the wicked will be no more; though you look for them, they will not be found. But the meek will inherit the land and enjoy peace and prosperity. The wicked plot against the righteous and gnash their teeth at them; but the Lord laughs at the wicked, for he knows their day is coming.” ‭‭Psalm‬ ‭37:3-13‬ ‭NIV‬‬

News flash: Meek does not mean weak!!!!!! This Psalm lays out the foundation for our lives!!!! Don’t get mad!!!! Don’t let the wrath take you over!!!! The world views the meek as weak, but God views the meek as Children of God!!!! Today’s prayer is that we would all trust in his way and know that the world will throw us nasty curve balls but like the major leaguers take the pitch !!!!! 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

THIS IS A TIME IN YOUR LIFE WHEN YOU MUST LEARN TO LET GO: of loved ones, of possessions, of control. – PSALM 89 : 15, HEBREWS 13 : 8, ISAIAH 41 : 13

THIS IS A TIME IN YOUR LIFE WHEN YOU MUST LET GO. – PSA 89:15, HEB 13:8, ISA 41:13 (https://youtu.be/7SPFKOIkP7M)

“THIS IS A TIME IN YOUR LIFE WHEN YOU MUST LEARN TO LET GO: of loved ones, of possessions, of control. In order to let go of something that is precious to you, you need to rest in GOD’S Presence, where you are complete. Take time to bask in the Light of GOD’S Love. As you relax more and more, your grasping hand gradually opens up, releasing your prized possession into The LORD’S care. You can feel secure, even in the midst of cataclysmic changes, through awareness of GOD’S continual Presence. The One who never leaves you is the same One who never changes: GOD is the same yesterday, today, and forever. As you release more and more things into GOD’S care, remember that The LORD never lets go of your hand. Therein lies your security, which no one and no circumstance can take from you.”

Blessed are those who have learned to acclaim you, who walk in the light of your presence, O LORD. PSALM 89 : 15

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. HEBREWS 13 : 8

“For I am the LORD, your God, who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you.” ISAIAH 41 : 13

Prayer: God, You give me so many precious promises. There is such comfort in knowing you never change, and you never leave me. Help me to spend time in your presence, resting and releasing loved ones, work, and worries into your care. They were yours 1st anyways. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Romans‬ ‭15‬:‭4‬

Such things were written in the Scriptures long ago to teach us. And the Scriptures give us hope and encouragement as we wait patiently for God’s promises to be fulfilled. Romans‬ ‭15‬:‭4‬ NLT

What are you waiting for? What are you hoping for? This scripture tells us that the Bible is to teach us and give us hope in God’s promise. The world today is in a condition that the Bible told us it would be, a MESS!!!! Today’s prayer is that we would stand on God’s promise that as believers all this is temporary and our eternal hope as believers is forever…….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
