AS YOU LOOK into the day that stretches out before you, you see many choice-points along the way. – LAMENTATIONS 3 : 22 – 26, PSALM 34 : 8

https://youtu.be/h95CQfJW0cQ

“AS YOU LOOK into the day that stretches out before you, you see many choice-points along the way. The myriad possibilities these choices present can confuse you. Draw your mind back to the threshold of this day, where GOD stands beside you, lovingly preparing you for what is ahead. You must make your choices one at a time, since each is contingent upon the decision that precedes it. Instead of trying to create a mental map of your path through this day, focus on GOD’S loving Presence with you. GOD will equip you as you go, so that you can handle whatever comes your way. Trust GOD to supply what you need when you need it.”

Because of the LORD’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. I say to myself, “The LORD is my portion; therefore I will wait for him.” The LORD is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him; it is good to wait quietly for the salvation of the LORD. LAMENTATIONS 3 : 22 – 26

Oh, taste and see that the LORD is good; Blessed is the man who trusts in Him! PSALM 34 : 8 (NKJV)

Prayer: Lord as I slow down and sit in your presence, reorient my mind to focus on you and not the myriad of choice-points that lie ahead. Thank you that your mercy is new every morning. You are my daily bread, my portion, my rock. And you are all I need. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Luke‬ ‭4:18-21

““The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.” Then he rolled up the scroll, gave it back to the attendant and sat down. The eyes of everyone in the synagogue were fastened on him. He began by saying to them, “Today this scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.”” Luke‬ ‭4:18-21‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Jesus showed all kinds of wonders and miracles but many still did not believe. The Pharisees and Sadducees were so well versed in the law but they still would not believe that the Messiah was among them. Today the same remains, people are receiving healing & miracles in the lowest times of their life but still don’t see. Today’s prayer is that we would all pray for the spirit of God to fall on all with a hardened heart that they may believe in the one true living God, Jesus told them back then and we are telling them today…….Be Blessed and Testify!!!!!!

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 with empty hands and an open heart, ready to receive abundant blessings. – JOHN 17 : 20 – 23, ISAIAH 40 : 29 – 31, JOHN 17 : 20 – 23

https://youtu.be/XGGICo-b-Jw

COME TO GOD with empty hands and an open heart, ready to receive abundant blessings. GOD knows the depth and breadth of your neediness. Your life-path has been difficult, draining you of strength. Come to GOD for nurture. Let The LORD fill you up with HIS Presence: GOD in you, and you in GOD. GOD’S Power flows most freely into weak ones aware of their need for HIM . Faltering steps of dependence are not lack of faith; they are links to GOD’S Presence.”

“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

He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; 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 : 29 – 31

Prayer: God I come to you with empty hands and an open heart. Align the desires of my heart to yours. May every word that comes out of my mouth be a pleasing aroma to you. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

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

WELCOME PROBLEMS as perspective-lifters. – 2 CORINTHIANS 4 : 16 – 18, PSALM 89 : 15

https://youtu.be/jbekQS8d_Zg

“WELCOME PROBLEMS as perspective-lifters. GOD’S children tend to sleepwalk through their days until they bump into an obstacle that stymies them. If you encounter a problem with no immediate solution, your response to that situation will take you either up or down. You can lash out at the difficulty, resenting it and feeling sorry for yourself. This will take you down into a pit of self-pity. Alternatively, the problem can be a ladder, enabling you to climb up and see your life from GOD’S perspective. Viewed from above, the obstacle that frustrated you is only a light and momentary trouble. Once your perspective has been heightened, you can look away from the problem altogether. Turn toward GOD, and see the Light of GOD’S Presence shining upon you.”

Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. 2 CORINTHIANS 4 : 16 – 18

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

Prayer: God help me to see problems as opportunities to see things from your perspective. Jesus told us in this life we will have trouble so prepare my heart for future trouble, Lord. I know when I spend time with you, I’m storing up credit to be used when trouble comes. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Galatians‬ ‭5‬:‭16-17‬

So I say, let the Holy Spirit guide your lives. Then you won’t be doing what your sinful nature craves. The sinful nature wants to do evil, which is just the opposite of what the Spirit wants. And the Spirit gives us desires that are the opposite of what the sinful nature desires. These two forces are constantly fighting each other, so you are not free to carry out your good intentions. ‭Galatians‬ ‭5‬:‭16-17‬ NLT

Need direction? Always trying to do better but seem to stay the same? This scripture says to let the Holy Spirit direct you and then you won’t be caught in the sinful nature. Today I pray we all would let the spirit direct our paths and see how life becomes more fulfilling…….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

MAKE GOD YOUR FOCAL POINT as you move through this day. – HEBREWS 12 : 2, PSALM 102 : 27

https://youtu.be/tEooc–0a_o

“MAKE GOD YOUR FOCAL POINT as you move through this day. Just as a spinning ballerina must keep returning her eyes to a given point to maintain her balance, so you must keep returning your focus to GOD. Circumstances are in flux, and the world seems to be whirling around you. The only way to keep your balance is to fix your eyes on GOD, the One who never changes. If you gaze too long at your circumstances, you will become dizzy and confused. Look to The LORD, refreshing yourself in HIS Presence, and your steps will be steady and sure.”

Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. HEBREWS 12 : 2

But you remain the same, and your years will never end. PSALM 102 : 27

Prayer: Lord, help me to spend time in your presence each day to refresh me, to fill me, to renew me, and transform me to look a little more like you. Help me to fix my eyes on you and you alone Jesus. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

2 Timothy‬ ‭1:9-10‬

“He has saved us and called us to a holy life—not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace. This grace was given us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time, but it has now been revealed through the appearing of our Savior, Christ Jesus, who has destroyed death and has brought life and immortality to light through the gospel.” ‭‭2 Timothy‬ ‭1:9-10‬ ‭NIV‬‬

This is a beautiful picture, “He has saved us and called us to a Holy life” This is a true picture of Grace. We were born into sin and had no chance at eternal life then Bam!!!! Amazing Grace shows up in the form of a man. Today’s prayer is that we realize we were called to live a Holy life, what is a Holy life? Read the Bible it’s a direct reflection of who we are to be…….Be blessed and thank God for his Amazing Grace

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

KEEP YOUR EYES ON GOD, not only for direction but also for empowerment. – PSALM 141 : 8, PSALM 16 : 11

https://youtu.be/AQheERqtrLw

“KEEP YOUR EYES ON GOD, not only for direction but also for empowerment. GOD never leads you to do something without equipping you for the task. That is why it’s so important to seek GOD’S will in everything you do. There are many burned-out Christians who think more is always better, who deem it non spiritual to say no. In order to know GOD’S will, you must spend time with HIM — enjoying The LORD’S Presence. This is not an onerous task but a delightful privilege. GOD will show you the path of Life; in HIS Presence is fullness of Joy; at HIS right hand there are pleasures forevermore.”

But my eyes are fixed on you, O Sovereign LORD; in you I take refuge—do not give me over to death. PSALM 141 : 8

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: Lord in your presence you fill me up with peace and joy despite any circumstance. The more I follow your lead the more pleasures and treasures of life you reveal to me. I am in awe of your goodness and kindness, Lord. Help me to focus on glorifying you with my thoughts, words, and actions today by the power of the Holy Spirit. In Jesus’ precious name. Amen.

‭‭2 Thessalonians‬ ‭3:5

“May the Lord direct your hearts into God’s love and Christ’s perseverance.”
‭‭2 Thessalonians‬ ‭3:5‬ ‭NIV‬‬

The Bible says the condition of a man’s heart defines him, what is the condition of your heart? Do you give and expect something in return? Do you help out but complain? God knows our heart even though we can camouflage it. Today’s prayer is that we would have the heart of Jesus, all giving and giving with nothing but love never expecting anything in return…….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
