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

https://youtu.be/G7vu6MszBBI

“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 The LORD’S Peace, which GOD always proffer to you. Imagine the pain GOD feels when HIS children tie themselves up in anxious knots, ignoring HIS gift of Peace. The LORD died a criminal’s death to secure this blessing for you. Receive it gratefully; hide it in your heart. GOD’S Peace is an inner treasure, growing within you as you trust in HIM. Therefore, circumstances cannot touch it. Be still, enjoying Peace in The LORD’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: Lord, help me to take time to be still in your presence. To breathe deeply and slowly as you fill me with your joy and peace. And as John did at the last supper, may I lay my head on your chest and rest. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

LUKE‬ ‭11:28

“But He said, “On the contrary, blessed are those who hear the word of God and observe it.”” ‭‭LUKE‬ ‭11:28‬ ‭NASB‬‬

BEWARE OF SEEING YOURSELF through other people’s eyes. – HEBREWS 11 : 6, JOHN 4 : 23 – 24

https://youtu.be/uVz_xiLPXPk

“BEWARE OF SEEING YOURSELF through other people’s eyes. There are several dangers to this practice. First of all, it is nearly impossible to discern what others actually think of you. Moreover, their views of you are variable: subject to each viewer’s spiritual, emotional, and physical condition. The major problem with letting others define you is that it borders on idolatry. Your concern to please others dampens your desire to please GOD, your Creator. It is much more real to see yourself through GOD’S eyes. GOD’s gaze upon you is steady and sure, untainted by sin. Through The LORD’s eyes you can see yourself as one who is deeply, eternally loved. Rest in GOD’s loving gaze, and you will receive deep Peace. Respond to The LORD’s loving Presence by worshiping GOD in spirit and in truth.”

Scripture

And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him. HEBREWS 11 : 6

“Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth.” JOHN 4 : 23 – 24

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, help me to seek your approval above anyone else. Thank you for your steady, deep, eternal love. Help me to rest in you – and receive your deep peace. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Ephesians‬ ‭5:7-8‬

“Therefore do not be partners with them. For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light” Ephesians‬ ‭5:7-8‬ ‭NIV‬‬

It’s so easy to get caught up in the ways of the world on a daily basis but that is not who we are. This scripture tells us that we once were doomed but now we are saved!!!! Let’s act like it. Today’s prayer is that we would live a life that is pleasing to God and guard against our old ways……. 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

GOD IS THE CULMINATION of all your hopes and desires. – PSALM 62 : 5 – 8, 1 PETER 2 : 9

https://youtu.be/zih_sejq67s

“GOD IS THE CULMINATION of all your hopes and desires. GOD is the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last: who is and was and is to come. Before you knew GOD, you expressed your longing for HIM in hurtful ways. You were ever so vulnerable to the evil around you in the world. But now The LORD’S Presence safely shields you, enfolding you in GOD’S loving arms. The LORD has lifted you out of darkness into HIS marvelous Light. Though GOD has brought many pleasures into your life, not one of them is essential. Receive The LORD’S blessings with open hands. Enjoy GOD’S good gifts, but do not cling to them. Turn your attention to the Giver of all good things, and rest in the knowledge that you are complete in The LORD. The one thing you absolutely need is the one thing you can never lose: GOD’S Presence with you.”

Scripture

Find rest, O my soul, in God alone;
my hope comes from him. He alone is my rock and my salvation;
he is my fortress, I will not be shaken. My salvation and my honor depend on God;
he is my mighty rock, my refuge. Trust in him at all times, O people;
pour out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge. PSALM 62 : 5 – 8

But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light. 1 PETER 2 : 9 (NKJV)

Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. JAMES 1 : 17

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, thank you for your presence with me at all times. You never leave me therefore I am never alone. You are my rock and my salvation. My hope is in you alone. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

1 John‬ ‭1:8‬

“If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us.” ‭‭1 John‬ ‭1:8‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Reality check WE ARE SINNERS!!!!! Even though we are saved we are sinners. To sin is to do something against God, gossip, anger, worry, curse, lie, etc. The Cross redeemed us from damnation but we bring our own condemnation on by these actions !!!! Today’s prayer is that we would all look to the Cross anytime these temptations come upon us and thank Jesus for the freedom we truly have…….. Be Blessed and always look to the Cross

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

TRUST GOD ENOUGH to let things happen without striving to predict or control them. – PSALM 37 : 3 – 6, PHILIPPIANS 4 : 19

https://youtu.be/G0ubAibJKyg

“TRUST GOD ENOUGH to let things happen without striving to predict or control them. Relax, and refresh yourself in the Light of GOD’S everlasting Love. GOD’S Love-Light never dims, yet you are often unaware of HIS radiant Presence. When you project yourself into the future, rehearsing what you will do or say, you are seeking to be self-sufficient: to be adequate without The LORD’S help. This is a subtle sin—so common that it usually slips by unnoticed. The alternative is to live fully in the present, depending on The LORD each moment. Rather than fearing your inadequacy, rejoice in GOD’S abundant supply. Train your mind to seek GOD’s help continually, even when you feel competent to handle something by yourself. Don’t divide your life into things you can do by yourself and things that require The LORD’s help. Instead, learn to rely on GOD in every situation. This discipline will enable you to enjoy life more and to face each day confidently.”

Scripture

Trust in the LORD and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture. Delight yourself 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 righteousness shine like the dawn, the justice of your cause like the noonday sun. PSALM 37 : 3 – 6

And my God shall supply all your needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. PHILIPPIANS 4 : 19 (NKJV)

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, help me to refresh myself in your presence and walk hand in hand with you through the day, depending on you each moment. You are my rock, my shield, my comforter. In you I have all I need. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

1Thessalonians‬ ‭5‬:‭16-18

Always be joyful. Never stop praying. Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus. ‭1Thessalonians‬ ‭5‬:‭16-18‬ NLT

To have a joyful heart is to know how blessed you are, to pray in all circumstances is to acknowledge that Jesus is in control, to give thanks in all circumstances is our reasonable service for what God has done for us… Today I pray that all would be joyful, thankful, and pray through all situations……Be Blessed

IN ORDER TO HEAR GOD’S VOICE, you must release all your worries into GOD’S care. – 1 PETER 5 : 6 – 7, PSALM 118 : 24, 1 THESSALONIANS 5 : 18

https://youtu.be/nATgUbnSSiU

“IN ORDER TO HEAR GOD’S VOICE, you must release all your worries into GOD’S care. Entrust to GOD everything that concerns you. This clears the way for you to seek The LORD’s Face unhindered. Let The LORD free you from fear that is hiding deep inside you. Sit quietly in GOD’S Presence, allowing The LORD’s Light to soak into you and drive out any darkness lodged within you. Accept each day just as it comes to you, remembering that GOD is sovereign over your life. Rejoice in this day that The LORD has made, trusting that GOD is abundantly present in it. Instead of regretting or resenting the way things are, thank The LORD in all circumstances. Trust GOD and don’t be fearful; thank GOD and rest in HIS sovereignty.”

Scripture

Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. 1 PETER 5 : 6 – 7

This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it. PSALM 118 : 24

Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. 1 THESSALONIANS 5 : 18

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, I long to hear your voice. Help me to release all my worries to you so I can free up my heart to hear your still small voice. Your presence is far greater than anything you give me. Help me to sit quietly with you, experiencing all of you. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Romans‬ ‭12‬:‭12

Rejoice in our confident hope. Be patient in trouble, and keep on praying. Romans‬ ‭12‬:‭12‬ NLT

Is prayer your first choice or your last resort? Are you looking for help everywhere and when it doesn’t show up you say ” well all I can do now is pray” you have it totally backwards!!!!!! The bible says Pray without ceasing, in everything give thanksgiving and prayer. Well today I pray that our response to everything would be in prayer and thanksgiving ……. Be Blessed and Pray Hard
