Matthew‬ ‭24:9-14

“Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me. At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭24:9-14‬ ‭NIV‬‬

There is ONE gospel!!! Not a watered down sugar coated version. Today there are so many versions of the gospel no wonder there is so much confusion. The Bible is a direct reflection of who we are to be, we are in the end times and more important than ever we need to be bold and accurate of the gospel. Today’s prayer is that we would be in prayer asking for discernment and Gods knowledge on how and who to reach with the living truth of God…….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

MEET GOD in early morning splendor. – ISAIAH 40 : 31, PSALM 27 : 4, PHILIPPIANS 4 : 8

MEET GOD in early morning splendor. (https://youtu.be/-k-VV5Sr09U)

“MEET GOD in early morning splendor. GOD eagerly awaits you there. In the stillness of this holy time with The LORD, HE renews your strength and saturates you with Peace. While others turn over for extra sleep or anxiously tune in to the latest news, you commune with the Creator of the universe. GOD has awakened in your heart a strong desire to know HIM. This longing originated in GOD, though it now burns brightly in you. When you seek The LORD’S Face in response to HIS Love-call, both of you are blessed. This is a deep mystery, designed more for your enjoyment than for your understanding. GOD am not a dour God who discourages pleasure. GOD delights in your enjoyment of everything that is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, admirable. Think on these things, and GOD’S Light in you will shine brighter day by day.”

But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. ISAIAH 40 : 31

One thing I ask of the LORD, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple. PSALM 27 : 4

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable— if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. PHILIPPIANS 4 : 8

Prayer: Lord as I spend quiet time with you, give me just enough strength and joy and peace for today. Help me to keep my eyes fixed on you regardless of what the week brings. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

2 Corinthians‬ ‭4:8‬ ‭

“We are pressed on every side by troubles, but we are not crushed. We are perplexed, but not driven to despair.” ‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭4:8‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Day to day can sometimes seem impossible, always issues in one way or another. This scripture reminds us that no matter what we cannot be defeated in Christ!!! Today’s prayer is that we would take hold of this scripture and push on through the troubles in front of 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

Philippians‬ ‭4:13‬

“For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength.” ‭‭Philippians‬ ‭4:13‬ ‭NLT‬‬

We were created to be victors! Not victims!!! We were created to do great things, not mediocre things!!! The world will say different but we are not of this world!!!! Today’s prayer is that when you feel not good enough, you are! When you feel like life is unfair, look at all your blessings! And when you just feel like giving up, Look to the Cross…..Be Blessed and always know you are perfect in God’s eyes

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

COME TO GOD when you are weak and weary. – ISAIAH 42 : 3, ISAIAH 54 : 10, ROMANS 8 : 26

https://youtu.be/zRntg–WceM

COME TO GOD when you are weak and weary. (https://youtu.be/zRntg–WceM)

“COME TO GOD when you are weak and weary. Rest snugly in GOD’S everlasting arms. GOD does not despise your weakness, you are HIS child. Actually, it draws The LORD closer to you, because weakness stirs up HIS compassion—HIS yearning to help. Accept yourself in your weariness, knowing that GOD understands how difficult your journey has been. Do not compare yourself with others, who seem to skip along their life-paths with ease. Their journeys have been different from yours, and GOD has gifted them with abundant energy. GOD has gifted you with fragility, providing opportunities for your spirit to blossom in HIS Presence. Accept this gift as a sacred treasure: delicate, yet glowing with brilliant Light. Rather than struggling to disguise or deny your weakness, allow GOD to bless you richly through it.”

A bruised reed he will not break, and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out. In faithfulness he will bring forth justice. ISAIAH 42 : 3

“Though the mountains be shaken and the hills be removed, yet my unfailing love for you will not be shaken nor my covenant of peace be removed,” says the LORD, who has compassion on you. ISAIAH 54 : 10

In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express. ROMANS 8 : 26

Prayer: Lord I come to you when I am weak and weary and rest snugly in your everlasting arms. Thank you for my weaknesses because they remind me to depend on you. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Ephesians‬ ‭2:4-6‬

“But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved. And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus,” ‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭2:4-6‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Still think you’re not worthy? Still think you are not good enough? This scripture tells us that even though we were not worthy of God’s grace it was freely given to us because of God’s love for us. Grace is not a license to sin, it’s a reason not too. Today’s prayer is that we would live the life that God ordained for each one of us, when you miss the mark REPENT!!! don’t regress and truly let the grace of God work in your life…….Be Blessed & remember to Bless someone else

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

LEARN TO ENJOY LIFE MORE. Relax, remembering that GOD is with you. – MATTHEW 1 : 23, JOHN 10 : 10 – 11

LEARN TO ENJOY LIFE MORE. Relax, remembering that GOD is with you. (https://youtu.be/HhF2SXn7xlw)

“LEARN TO ENJOY LIFE MORE. Relax, remembering that GOD is with you. GOD crafted you with enormous capacity to know HIM and enjoy HIS Presence. When GOD’S people wear sour faces and walk through their lives with resigned rigidity, GOD is displeased. When you walk through a day with childlike delight, savoring every blessing, you proclaim your trust in GOD, your ever-present Shepherd. The more you focus on GOD’S Presence with you, the more fully you can enjoy life. Glorify The LORD through your pleasure in HIM. Thus you proclaim GOD’S Presence to the watching world.”

“The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel”—which means, “God with us.” MATTHEW 1 : 23

“The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full. “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.” JOHN 10 : 10 – 11

Prayer: Lord help me to enjoy life more and walk through today with childlike delight and joy, savoring every blessing. Help me to focus more on your presence than problems. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Psalms‬ ‭23:1-2

“The Lord is my shepherd; I have all that I need. He lets me rest in green meadows; he leads me beside peaceful streams.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭23:1-2‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Such a peaceful scripture, isn’t it nice to know that we serve a Lord that offers refuge and peace not only for our soul but for our present body. Today’s prayer is that we would all know that God has it!!!! Always has always will……..Be Blessed and trust and chill out

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

COME TO GOD. Come to GOD. Come to GOD. – REVELATION 22 : 17, JOHN 6 : 37, EPHESIANS 3 : 16 – 19

https://youtu.be/aOOmjaUH4wM

COME TO GOD. Come to GOD. Come to GOD. (https://youtu.be/aOOmjaUH4wM)

“COME TO GOD. Come to GOD. Come to GOD. This is GOD’S continual invitation to you, proclaimed in holy whispers. When your heart and mind are quiet, you can hear The LORD inviting you to draw near. Coming close to GOD requires no great effort on your part; it is more like ceasing to resist the magnetic pull of GOD’S Love. Open yourself to The LORD’S loving Presence, so that Christ may fill you with HIS fullness. GOD want you to experience how wide and long and high and deep is HIS Love for you, so that you can know HIS Love that surpasses knowledge. This vast ocean of Love cannot be measured or explained, but it can be experienced.”

The Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let him who hears say, “Come!” Whoever is thirsty, let him come; and whoever wishes, let him take the free gift of the water of life. REVELATION 22 : 17

All that the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never drive away. JOHN 6 : 37

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, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. EPHESIANS 3 : 16 – 19

Prayer: Quiet my heart and mind so I can hear you inviting me to draw near to you Lord. So that I can feel your overwhelming love for me and share that love with others today. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭5:1

“Imitate God, therefore, in everything you do, because you are his dear children.” ‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭5:1‬ ‭NLT‬‬

What does it mean to imitate God? As we all know we could never be as the Almighty is, but this scripture says to imitate (take or follow as a model) . This definition is very clear BE LIKE! To be like God is to be all forgiving, all loving, all good. Today’s prayer is as we will never be like God we should all strive to follow his will for our lives, and that is all better than we were…….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
