“My thoughts are nothing like your thoughts,” says the Lord. “And my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine.” Isaiah 55:8 NLT
Discouraged? Trying to fix something in your life? Failing? All of us get that way but take heart we serve a Lord of all Things!!!! I believe things happen for a reason and things happen in a timely manor. Today’s prayer is we would wait on the Lord in all we do! Pray in all things ! Ask for guidance and wisdom from the Holy Spirit……..Be Blessed and Be Patient
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
“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
Isn’t it nice to know that Jesus loved us so much that he left this gift for us? Are you using it when times get rough? The world will throw curveballs at us everyday but if we trust in the word we will overcome all the trials. Today’s prayer is that we don’t just read the Bible! We need to live the Bible….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
“THE LORD IS A MIGHTY GOD. Nothing is too difficult for HIM. GOD has chosen to use weak ones like you to accomplish HIS purposes. Your weakness is designed to open you up to GOD’S Power. Therefore, do not fear your limitations or measure the day’s demands against your strength. What GOD requires of you is to stay connected to HIM, living in trusting dependence on GOD’S limitless resources. When you face unexpected demands, there is no need to panic. Remember that The LORD is with you. Talk with GOD, and listen while GOD talks you through each challenging situation. The LORD is not a careless God. When GOD allows difficulties to come into your life, GOD equips you fully to handle them. Relax in The LORD’S Presence, trusting in GOD’S Strength.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
“For nothing is impossible with God.” LUKE 1 : 37
But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. 2 CORINTHIANS 12 : 9
Prayer: God when I feel weak help me to remember to talk with you and then be still and listen as you talk me through each challenging situation step by step. Thank you for caring about every detail of my life – big and small. May Jesus’ power rest on me today. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
“A good person produces good things from the treasury of a good heart, and an evil person produces evil things from the treasury of an evil heart. What you say flows from what is in your heart.” Luke 6:45 NLT
How’s your crops? Are you producing positive things or negative? The heart is the gateway to your soul and what is in your heart will come to life!!!!! Today’s prayer is that our heart would be full of giving, forgiveness, love, nurturing, and just being good to all. The world is in a condition that Jesus said would happen and we all need to check ourselves!!!!!! Be Blessed and always be a blessing
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
“THANK GOD IN THE MIDST of the crucible. When things seem all wrong, look for growth opportunities. Especially, look for areas where you need to let go, leaving your cares in GOD’S able hands. Do you trust GOD to orchestrate your life events as HE chooses, or are you still trying to make things go according to your will? If you keep trying to carry out your intentions while GOD is leading you in another direction, you deify your desires. Be on the lookout for what GOD is doing in your life. Worship GOD by living close to HIM, thanking GOD in all circumstances.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
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
Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. 1 THESSALONIANS 5 : 18
Prayer: Lord show me any areas of my life I need to let go, leaving that worry in your capable hands. Help me to be on the lookout for what you are doing in my life and worship you by living close to you. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
“he predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will— to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves. In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace” Ephesians 1:5-7 NIV
To truly understand what Jesus did for us is mind blowing! If God had not sent Jesus to the cross for all of us we would have never had the chance to get into right standing with God. When God sees us he sees us through Jesus, so therefore he sees perfection. Today I pray that we would never forget the grace that has been given to us freely and undeserved. Praise Jesus in all things and be thankful for all you have, the alternative would have been brutal……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
“LEARN TO RELATE to others through GOD’S Love rather than yours. Your human love is ever so limited, full of flaws and manipulation. GOD’S loving Presence, which always enfolds you, is available to bless others as well as you. Instead of trying harder to help people through your own paltry supplies, become aware of GOD’S unlimited supply, which is accessible to you continually. Let The LORD’S Love envelop your outreach to other people. Many of GOD’S precious children have fallen prey to burnout. A better description of their condition might be “drain-out.” Countless interactions with needy people have drained them, without their conscious awareness. You are among these weary ones, who are like wounded soldiers needing R&R. Take time to rest in the Love-Light of GOD’S Presence. The LORD will gradually restore to you the energy that you have lost over the years. Come to GOD, all you who are weary and burdened, and you will find rest for your souls.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
The LORD replied, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.” EXODUS 33 : 14
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.” MATTHEW 11 : 28 – 29
Prayer: Lord thank you for gradually restoring my energy and love tank as I spend time with you each day. In you I find rest for my weary soul. Thank you Jesus you are so good to me. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
Not that I was ever in need, for I have learned how to be content with whatever I have. (Philippians 4:11 NLT)
Like Paul we should always be content in the current situation we are in. Paul lived a life that by today’s standards would be all over the map, he killed Christians, arrested the Christians, but yet God called him in the highest way. Today I pray that we would all be content with where we are, not complacent but content because God has a greater plan for us…….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
“THANK GOD FOR YOUR PROBLEMS. As soon as your mind gets snagged on a difficulty, bring it to GOD with thanksgiving. Then ask GOD to show you HIS way to handle the situation. The very act of thanking GOD releases your mind from its negative focus. As you turn your attention to The LORD, the problem fades in significance and loses its power to trip you up. Together you can deal with the situation, either facing it head-on or putting it aside for later consideration. Most of the situations that entangle your mind are not today’s concerns; you have borrowed them from tomorrow. In this case, GOD lifts the problem out of today and deposit it in the future, where it is veiled from your eyes. In its place GOD give you HIS Peace, which flows freely from GOD’S Presence.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. PHILIPPIANS 4 : 6
“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.” JOHN 14 : 27
Prayer: God thank you for my problems. Once you help me over time with it, show me who I can help through the same situation for your glory. Show me how to handle the situation, how to let go, and give it to you. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
Therefore, put on every piece of God’s armor so you will be able to resist the enemy in the time of evil. Then after the battle you will still be standing firm. Ephesians 6:13 NLT
Are you more concerned with what outfit you will wear today or what armor you have on spiritually? When things are going good life is perfect, the bills are all paid, money in the bank, etc…. We tend to forget that’s when we need to be the strongest spiritually. The bible says the devil comes to steal, kill, and destroy…… Today I pray that we would all prepare our day by putting on the whole armor of God so the devil has to flee…….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
