“WAITING, TRUSTING, AND HOPING are intricately connected, like golden strands interwoven to form a strong chain. Trusting is the central strand, because it is the response from GOD’S children that HE desires the most. Waiting and hoping embellish the central strand and strengthen the chain that connects you to The LORD. Waiting for GOD to work, with your eyes on HIM, is evidence that you really do trust The LORD. If you mouth the words “I trust You GOD” while anxiously trying to make things go your way, your words ring hollow. Hoping is future-directed, connecting you to your inheritance in heaven. However, the benefits of hope fall fully on you in the present. Because you are GOD’S, you don’t just pass time in your waiting. You can wait expectantly, in hopeful trust. Keep your “antennae” out to pick up even the faintest glimmer of The LORD’S Presence.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
“Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me.” JOHN 14 : 1
Wait for the LORD; be strong and take heart and wait for the LORD. PSALM 27 : 14
God did this so that, by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the hope offered to us may be greatly encouraged. We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain, where Jesus, who went before us, has entered on our behalf. He has become a high priest forever, in the order of Melchizedek. HEBREWS 6 : 18 – 20
Prayer: Lord help me to wait, trust, and hope in you. To wait expectantly, keeping my spiritual antennae ready to see your mighty hand at work. Do not let my heart be troubled. For you know the plans you have for me, plans to prosper me and not to harm me, plans to give me hope and a future. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
“The LORD has heard my supplication; The LORD will receive my prayer.” Psalms 6:9 NKJV
Are you praying for a miracle? Has that miracle not shown up? Hold strong to Gods word he hears your prayers and when the time is right they will be answered. Today’s prayer is we would stand on Gods word and have patience for our answered prayers…….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
“WALK BY FAITH, NOT BY SIGHT. As you take steps of faith, depending on GOD, GOD will show you how much HE can do for you. If you live your life too safely, you will never know the thrill of seeing GOD work through you. When GOD gave you HIS Holy Spirit,HE empowered you to live beyond your natural ability and strength. That’s why it is so wrong to measure your energy level against the challenges ahead of you. The issue is not your strength but GOD’S, which is limitless. By walking close to GOD, you can accomplish GOD’S purposes in HIS strength.” – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
For we walk by faith, not by sight. 2 CORINTHIANS 5 : 7 (NKJV)
Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. GALATIANS 5 : 25
Prayer: Lord help me to walk by faith and not by sight. To depend on you and your strength which is limitless and not on my own strength. This requires a close connection with you Lord. Help me to live and keep in step with your Holy Spirit day by day, moment by moment. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
As God’s partners, we beg you not to accept this marvelous gift of God’s kindness and then ignore it. For God says, “At just the right time, I heard you. On the day of salvation, I helped you.” Indeed, the “right time” is now. Today is the day of salvation. 2 Corinthians 6:1-2 NLT
Is today that day? Do you have a friend or loved one that doesn’t know The Lord ? We’ll today is that day. We as Christians can not save people, but be used as a conduit for God to reach the unsaved. Our job is to witness by our actions, the love we show, and not only what we do when others are watching, but when they’re not. God has a use for each and everyone of us!!!! Ask him to show you. Today I pray that we would boldly witness to all that are unsaved and on a road to destruction and make today that day for someone……In Jesus name…….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
“YOU ARE GOD’S FOR ALL TIME—and beyond time, into eternity. No power can deny you your inheritance in heaven. GOD wants you to realize how utterly secure you are! Even if you falter as you journey through life, GOD will never let go of your hand. Knowing that your future is absolutely assured can free you to live abundantly today. GOD has prepared this day for you with the most tender concern and attention to detail. Instead of approaching the day as a blank page that you need to fill up, try living it in a responsive mode: being on the lookout for all that GOD is doing. This sounds easy, but it requires a deep level of trust, based on the knowledge that GOD’S way is perfect.” – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
If the LORD delights in a man’s way, he makes his steps firm; though he stumble, he will not fall, for the LORD upholds him with his hand. PSALM 37 : 23 – 24
As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the LORD is flawless. He is a shield for all who take refuge in him. PSALM 18 : 30
Prayer: Lord help me to be on the lookout for all you are doing today. Your way is perfect and I know you have prepared this day for me with the most tender concern and attention to detail. Thank you for never letting go of my hand. In Jesus’ precious name. Amen.
“holding on to faith and a good conscience, which some have rejected and so have suffered shipwreck with regard to the faith.” 1 Timothy 1:19 NIV
Is your faith strong? Do you trust your 100% to God? I see so many Christians that let the worlds circumstances destroy there faith in the Lord. The bible tells us that God is there through ALL! not some. Today’s prayer is that we would always trust in the Lord no matter what the circumstance is………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
“REST IN GOD’S RADIANT PRESENCE. The world around you seems to spin faster and faster, till everything is a blur. Yet there is a cushion of calm at the center of your life, where you live in union with GOD. Return to this soothing Center as often as you can, for this is where you are energized: filled with GOD’S Love, Joy, and Peace. The world is a needy place; do not go there for sustenance. Instead, come to GOD. Learn to depend on GOD alone, and your weakness will become saturated with HIS Power. When you find your completeness in GOD, you can help other people without using them to meet your own needs. Live in the Light of GOD’S Presence, and your light will shine brightly into the lives of others.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness. GALATIANS 5 : 22
No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us. 1 JOHN 4 : 12
Prayer: Lord help me to return to the center of my soul where you are, often. This is where I am energized: filled with love, joy, and peace. Help me to depend on you alone. Where does my help comes from? My help comes from the LORD, the maker of heaven and earth. In Jesus’ precious name. Amen.
“SAVE YOUR BEST STRIVING FOR SEEKING GOD’S FACE. GOD is constantly communicating with you. To find The LORD and hear HIS voice, you must seek HIM above all else. Anything that you desire more than GOD becomes an idol. When you are determined to get your own way, you blot GOD out of your consciousness. Instead of single-mindedly pursuing some goal, talk with GOD about it. Let the Light of The LORD’S Presence shine on this pursuit, so that you can see it from HIS perspective. If the goal fits into GOD’S plans for you, HE will help you reach it. If it is contrary to GOD’S will for you, HE will gradually change the desire of your heart. Seek GOD first and foremost; then the rest of your life will fall into place, piece by piece.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
Look to the LORD and his strength; seek his face always. 1 CHRONICLES 16 : 11
“But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.” MATTHEW 6 : 33
Prayer: Lord help me to be more attuned to hearing and recognizing your voice this week. My part is to slow down each day and take time to listen. Help me to do that. Change any desires of my heart that don’t align to your plan for me Lord. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
