‭‭John‬ ‭19 : 16 – 18

“Finally Pilate handed him over to them to be crucified. So the soldiers took charge of Jesus. Carrying his own cross, he went out to the place of the Skull (which in Aramaic is called Golgotha). There they crucified him, and with him two others—one on each side and Jesus in the middle.” ‭‭John‬ ‭19 : 16 – 18‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Can you even imagine the King of Kings carried his own cross to his crucifixion? Jesus did nothing wrong in all his time on earth but was charged with so many false accusations. In our daily lives we also can be slandered, and how much more do we deserve it than Jesus? This is where Amazing Grace and unconditional love walked in. Today’s prayer is when times get rough we pick up our Cross and walk right to the arms of the savior, he’s always waiting with arms wide open………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

Jude‬ ‭1 : 24 – 25

“Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.” ‭‭Jude‬ ‭1 : 24 – 25‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

We tend to take all the glory when we achieve something, Jesus gave us the chance to live through his loving sacrifice so how can we not give him the glory? To be self righteous is to be distant from God. Today’s prayer is that we would give glory to God in all situations, even though we play a big part in our achievements, Jesus played a bigger part by laying his life down for us so that we may live…….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

BASK IN THE LUXURY of being fully understood and unconditionally loved. – PSALM 34 : 5, 2 CORINTHIANS 5 : 21, 2 CORINTHIANS 3 : 18, GALATIANS 5 : 25

https://youtu.be/yNZ6_vQ0Sp0

“BASK IN THE LUXURY of being fully understood and unconditionally loved. Dare to see yourself as GOD sees you: radiant in GOD’S righteousness, cleansed by The LORD’S blood. GOD views you as the one HE created you to be, the one you will be in actuality when heaven becomes your home. It is GOD’S Life within you that is changing you from glory to glory. Rejoice in this mysterious miracle! Thank The LORD continually for the amazing gift of HIS Holy Spirit within you. Try to depend on the help of GOD’S Holy Spirit as you go through this day of life. Pause briefly from time to time so you can consult with the Holy One inside you. GOD will not force you to do HIS bidding, but GOD will guide you as you give HIM space in your life. Walk along this wondrous way of collaboration with GOD’S Holy Spirit.”

Scripture

Those who look to him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame. PSALM 34 : 5

God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God. 2 CORINTHIANS 5 : 21

But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord. 2 CORINTHIANS 3 : 18 (NKJV)

Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. GALATIANS 5 : 25

Prayer

Prayer: Lord help me to depend on your Holy Spirit more today than I did yesterday. To pause to consult with Him before making a decision so I can do your will. Holy Spirit, control my thoughts, my words, and my actions today. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Ecclesiastes‬ ‭7 : 8

“The end of a thing is better than its beginning; The patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit.” ‭‭Ecclesiastes‬ ‭7 : 8‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Have you ever noticed how most things finish better than they start if we have patience? Do you ever get the “I want it now attitude”? Well I know I have fallen into this trap and made a mess of many things. This scripture paints a clear picture that good things come to those who wait. The best we have to look forward to is the Lord’s return. Today’s prayer is that we would all pray for patience and in the process be humble ……. 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 CHRIST IN YOU, the hope of Glory. The One who walks beside you, holding you by your hand, is the same One who lives within you. This is a deep, unfathomable mystery. GOD and you are intertwined in an intimacy involving every fiber of your being. The Light of The LORD’S Presence shines within you, as well as upon you. GOD is in you, and you are in GOD; therefore, nothing in heaven or on earth can separate you from The LORD! As you sit quietly in GOD’S Presence, your awareness of The LORD’S Life within you is heightened. This produces the Joy of the Lord, which is your strength. The LORD, the God of hope, fills you with all Joy and Peace as you trust in HIM, so that you may bubble over with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.”Scripture

John 14 : 6

Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. John 14 : 6 NKJV

Jesus said “I am the way” the way to eternal life is through salvation in Jesus which is a gift!!! Not of man’s effort. Jesus said ” I am the truth” this means that every spoken word from Him is absolute!!!! We should strive to be like Him. He said ” I am the life” – there is no life worth living aside from Jesus !!!! He is our comfort, counselor, best friend, our everything. Today meditate on the gift of salvation and give thanks for that unconditional love ……. 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

THIS IS A TIME OF ABUNDANCE in your life. – PSALM 23 : 5, JOHN 3 : 16, LUKE 11 : 9 – 10, ROMANS 8 : 32

https://youtu.be/-HUOr7f9Y-A

“THIS IS A TIME OF ABUNDANCE in your life. Your cup runs over with blessings. After plodding uphill for many weeks, you are now traipsing through lush meadows drenched in warm sunshine. GOD wants you to enjoy to the fullest this time of ease and refreshment. GOD delights in providing it for you. Sometimes GOD’S children hesitate to receive HIS good gifts with open hands. Feelings of false guilt creep in, telling them they don’t deserve to be so richly blessed. This is nonsense-thinking, because no one deserves anything from The LORD. GOD’S kingdom is not about earning and deserving; it’s about believing and receiving. When a child of GOD balks at accepting The LORD’S gifts, HE is deeply grieved. When you receive GOD’S abundant blessings with a grateful heart, The LORD rejoices. GOD’S pleasure in giving and your pleasure in receiving flow together in joyous harmony.”

Scripture

Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. PSALM 23 : 5 (KJV)

“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” JOHN 3 : 16

“So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.” LUKE 11 : 9 – 10

He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all— how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things? ROMANS 8 : 32

Prayer

Prayer: Jesus your grace removes my old identity and replaces it with a brand-new identity – a child of God. Thank you for adopting me into your family and lavishing me with blessings and a home for eternity. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

2 Corinthians‬ ‭10 : 4 – 5‬

“The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.” ‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭10 : 4 – 5‬ ‭NIV‬‬

As Christians we know what is in line with God’s word, we know the difference between wrong and right in God’s eyes. Are we rewriting his words to fit our needs? The Bible gives us instruction on how to be the example of Christ, although temptation is all around from the worldly standard our spirit knows how to combat that temptation. Today’s prayer is that we would be so strong in God’s word that there would be no chance to twist it in any way ……… Be Blessed and Pray hard

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

DO NOT LET any set of circumstances intimidate you. – EPHESIANS 1 : 18 – 20, PSALM 105 : 4, DEUTERONOMY 33 : 25

https://youtu.be/5JfnEw8PtcA

“DO NOT LET any set of circumstances intimidate you. The more challenging your day, the more of GOD’S Power HE places at your disposal. You seem to think that GOD empowers you equally each day, but this is not so. Your tendency upon awakening is to assess the difficulties ahead of you, measuring them against your average strength. This is an exercise in unreality. GOD knows what each of your days will contain, and HE empowers you accordingly. The degree to which The LORD strengthens you on a given day is based mainly on two variables: the difficulty of your circumstances, and your willingness to depend on GOD for help. Try to view challenging days as opportunities to receive more of The LORD’S Power than usual. Look to GOD for all that you need, and watch to see what The LORD will do. As your day, so shall your strength be.”

Scripture

I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is like the working of his mighty strength, which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms. EPHESIANS 1 : 18 – 20

Look to the LORD and his strength; seek his face always. PSALM 105 : 4

Your sandals shall be iron and bronze; As your days, so shall your strength be. DEUTERONOMY 33 : 25 (NKJV)

Prayer

Prayer: God you know what challenges and triumphs are up ahead today. When challenges come, help me to view them as opportunities to receive more of your power and strength than usual. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

‭Micah‬ ‭6‬ : ‭8

But he’s already made it plain how to live, what to do, what GOD is looking for in men and women. It’s quite simple: Do what is fair and just to your neighbor, be compassionate and loyal in your love, And don’t take yourself too seriously— take God seriously. ‭Micah‬ ‭6‬ : ‭8‬ MSG

I love the way this translation explains it, basically be nice to all and put God first in everything!!!!! The Bible has laid out instructions for our lives, it is so easy to get tangled up in the things of the world, but when God’s first it becomes clear on how to handle circumstances. Today I pray that it would be this simple to translate for us, treat all equally, love with all you have, don’t be so hard on yourself, and most important PUT GOD FIRST…….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
