AS YOU TURN YOUR ATTENTION to GOD, feel the Light of GOD’S Presence shining upon you. | JOHN 17 : 20 – 23, PSALM 16 : 11

“AS YOU TURN YOUR ATTENTION to GOD, feel the Light of GOD’S Presence shining upon you. Open your mind and heart to receive The LORD’S heavenly smile of approval. Let GOD’S gold-tinged Love wash over you and soak into the depths of your being. As you are increasingly filled with The LORD’S Being, you experience joyous union with The LORD: GOD in you, and you in GOD. Your Joy-in-GOD and GOD’S Joy-in-you become intertwined and inseparable. GOD suffuses your soul with Joy in HIS Presence; at GOD’S right hand there are pleasures forevermore.”

Scripture

My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one: I in them and you in me. May they be brought to complete unity to let the world know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.” JOHN 17 : 20 – 23 

You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore. PSALM 16 : 11 (NKJV)

Prayer

Prayer: Lord thank you for showing me the path of life, the path full of joy and pleasure in You. Surround me with Your love and draw me into deeper union with You, where my joy and Yours become one. May others see you through me. Amen.

‭‭Psalm‬ ‭119 : 2‬

“Blessed are those who keep his testimonies, who seek him with their whole heart,” ‭‭Psalm‬ ‭119 : 2‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Are you doing all you can to keep GOD’S word in your heart? Do you witness HIS grace and mercy to all you can? Are you seeking GOD in all you do with all your heart? This is GOD’S will for our life. Today’s prayer is that we would be the disciples that JESUS CHRIST commissioned us to be testifying to all we can and seeking GOD’S direction with our whole heart …… 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 : 1 7

John‬ ‭14 ‬: ‭27

​“I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid. John‬ ‭14 ‬: ‭27‬ NLT

What are you worried about? Do you trust JESUS CHRIST? This scripture talks about the gift that The LORD, JESUS CHRIST gave us, peace! Total peace. The troubles of the world will consume our life if we let it, but the eternal promise of JESUS CHRIST will see us through anything. Today I pray we all would give it to GOD, let go and trust HIS promise …….. 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

John‬ ‭8 : 7 – 11

“So when they continued asking Him, He raised Himself up and said to them, “He who is without sin among you, let him throw a stone at her first.” And again He stooped down and wrote on the ground. Then those who heard it, being convicted by their conscience, went out one by one, beginning with the oldest even to the last. And Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst. When Jesus had raised Himself up and saw no one but the woman, He said to her, “Woman, where are those accusers of yours? Has no one condemned you?” She said, “No one, Lord.” And Jesus said to her, “Neither do I condemn you; go and sin no more.”” ‭‭John‬ ‭8 : 7 – 11‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

A lot of Christians say GOD loves me just as I am and this is true, but HE does not love our sin and wants us to change. Today’s prayer is that we would let GOD shape our lives without sin so that we can live a life that is pleasing to HIM in all areas …… 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 FEELING WEIGHED DOWN by a plethora of problems, both big and small.| EXODUS 3 : 14, HABAKKUK 3 : 17 – 19

“YOU ARE FEELING WEIGHED DOWN by a plethora of problems, both big and small. They seem to require more and more of your attention, but you must not give in to those demands. When the difficulties in your life feel as if they’re closing in on you, break free by spending quality time with GOD. You need to remember who GOD is in all HIS Power and Glory. Then, humbly bring GOD your prayers and petitions. Your problems will pale when you view them in the Light of The LORD’S Presence. You can learn to be joyful in GOD, your Savior, even in the midst of adverse circumstances. Rely on The LORD, your Strength; HE makes your feet like the feet of a deer, enabling you to go on the heights.” 

Scripture

God said to Moses, “I am who I am . This is what you are to say to the Israelites: ‘I AM has sent me to you.’” EXODUS 3 : 14 

Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will be joyful in God my Savior. The Sovereign LORD is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a deer, he enables me to go on the heights. For the director of music. On my stringed instruments. HABAKKUK 3 : 17 – 19

Prayer

Prayer: God help me to break free from worry by spending time with you. Then I can see things more clearly from your perspective. Help me to rely on you and your strength, and not my own. With you, I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Acts‬ ‭20 : 35‬

“In everything I showed you that by working hard in this manner you must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He Himself said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’ ” ‭‭Acts‬ ‭20 : 35‬ ‭NASB‬‬

In life we try to do the best we can, but do we try to help others? This scripture says it’s better to give than receive. Do we live by that example? Today’s prayer is that we will get what we need by helping others get what they need. We are blessed to be a blessing ………. Be Blessed

GOD IS WITH YOU. | ZEPHANIAH 3 : 17, PSALM 73 : 23 – 26

“GOD IS WITH YOU. These four words are like a safety net, protecting you from falling into despair. Because you are human, you will always have ups and downs in your life experience. But the promise of GOD’S Presence limits how far down you can go. Sometimes you may feel as if you are in a free fall, when people or things you had counted on let you down. Yet as soon as you remember that GOD is with you, your perspective changes radically. Instead of bemoaning your circumstances, you can look to The LORD for help. You recall that not only is GOD with you, GOD is holding you by your right hand. The LORD guides you with HIS counsel, and afterward The LORD will take you into Glory. This is exactly the perspective you need: the reassurance of GOD’S Presence, and the glorious hope of heaven.”

Scripture

The LORD your God is with you, he is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, he will quiet you with his love, he will rejoice over you with singing.” ZEPHANIAH 3 : 17 

Yet I am always with you; you hold me by my right hand. You guide me with your counsel, and afterward you will take me into glory. Whom have I in heaven but you? And earth has nothing I desire besides you. My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. PSALM 73 : 23 – 26

Prayer

Prayer: Lord thank you for promising to always be with me, no matter what. Help me to see things from your perspective. This world is not my true home, and my soul longs to be with you in Heaven. Until then, fill me with your peace and joy and strength for today. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Psalm‬ ‭17 : 1‬

“Hear me, Lord, my plea is just; listen to my cry. Hear my prayer— it does not rise from deceitful lips.” ‭‭Psalm‬ ‭17 : 1‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Are your prayers just? Are your prayers so transparent that there is such naked truth? This Psalm is a pure plea from a pure heart, as our prayers should be. I believe some prayers are self instead of correction / deliverance. Today’s prayer is pure from my heart I pray that we all would speak to GOD with a pure transparent heart! That we would be stripped down naked and totally innocent of what we want!!! GOD is just and GOD always answers our prayers if they are truly needed …… Be BLESSED!!

TAKE TIME TO BE STILL in GOD’S Presence. | PSALM 46 : 10, NUMBERS 6 : 25 – 26

“TAKE TIME TO BE STILL in GOD’S Presence. The more hassled you feel, the more you need this sacred space of communion with The LORD. Breathe slowly and deeply. Relax in GOD’S Holy Presence while HIS Face shines upon you. This is how you receive GOD’S Peace, which GOD always proffers to you. Imagine the pain The LORD feels when HIS children tie themselves up in anxious knots, ignoring HIS gift of Peace. The LORD, JESUS CHRIST died a criminal’s death to secure this blessing for you. Receive it gratefully; hide it in your heart. The LORD’S Peace is an inner treasure, growing within you as you trust in GOD. Therefore, circumstances cannot touch it. Be still, enjoying Peace in GOD’S Presence.”

Scripture

“Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.” PSALM 46 : 10 

“The LORD make his face shine upon you and be gracious to you; the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace.” NUMBERS 6 : 25 – 26

Prayer

Prayer: God help me to make time to be still in your presence. I desperately need this time with you each day so you can fill me with your peace, your promises, and your perspective. In Jesus’ precious name. Amen.

2 Thessalonians‬ ‭2‬ :‭ 16 – 17‬

May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who loved us and by his grace gave us eternal encouragement and good hope, encourage your hearts and strengthen you in every good deed and word. 2 Thessalonians‬ ‭2‬ :‭ 16 – 17‬ NIV

What is encouraging to you? The Word encourages means to give support, confidence, and hope. GOD has given us encouragement through HIS SON JESUS CHRIST and that’s all we need. Today’s prayer is that we stay focused on the encouraging promise that JESUS CHRIST gave us, don’t look to the world for hope, look to The LORD for eternal hope …….. Be Blessed
