“The name of the LORD is a strong tower; The righteous run to it and are safe.” Proverbs 18:10
Where do you seek out your refuge? Who do you go to with every situation? The Lord is a strong tower for us and every situation that we have. We can never have too much for God almighty to handle. Today’s prayer is that we would seek our refuge from the Lord, not the world……..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 LOVES YOU FOR WHO YOU ARE, not for what you do. Many voices vie for control of your mind, especially when you sit in silence. You must learn to discern what is GOD’S voice and what is not. Ask The LORD’S Holy Spirit to give you this discernment. Many of GOD’s children run around in circles, trying to obey the various voices directing their lives. This results in fragmented, frustrating patterns of living. Do not fall into this trap. Walk closely with The LORD each moment, listening for HIS directives and enjoying HIS Companionship. Refuse to let other voices tie you up in knots. GOD’S sheep know GOD’S voice and follow GOD wherever HE leads.”
As a prisoner for the Lord, then, I urge you to live a life worthy of the calling you have received. Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace. There is one body and one Spirit—just as you were called to one hope when you were called— one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all. EPHESIANS 4 : 1 – 6
When he has brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him because they know his voice. JOHN 10 : 4
Prayer: Lord help me to discern your voice. To know with certainty when you speak to me whether that’s through your word, your still small voice inside my heart, through peace, or through Godly people that it’s your voice, your words. And then help me to obey. In sweet Jesus’ name. Amen.
“Dear friends, since God loved us that much, we surely ought to love each other.” 1 John 4:11 NLT
Do you ever find yourself judging or condemning the actions of another brother or sister in Christ? Do you believe that God is the only judge? And last but not least should we not council a brother or sister to remind them of God’s expectations for our life? I believe it is easy to judge others but if we take a step back and look in the mirror we also need some counsel. Today’s prayer is that we would council with instruction, not destruction!!! Love them as God loves……. 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 THE RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE; all lasting Life emanates from HIM. People search for life in many wrong ways: chasing after fleeting pleasures, accumulating possessions and wealth, trying to deny the inevitable effects of aging. Meanwhile, GOD freely offers abundant Life to everyone who turns toward HIM. As you come to The LORD and take HIS yoke upon you, GOD fills you with HIS very Life. This is how GOD chooses to live in the world and accomplish HIS purposes. This is also how GOD blesses you with Joy unspeakable and full of Glory. The Joy is GOD’s, and the Glory is GOD’s; but GOD bestows them on you as you live in HIS Presence, inviting The LORD to live fully in you.”
Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies.” JOHN 11 : 25
“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
Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls. 1 PETER 1 : 8 – 9 (KJV)
Prayer: Jesus thank you for making a way for me to have eternal life with you. And not only later, but you offer me abundant life here and now, to the extent to which I surrender and follow you. Your beauty and love chase after me every day of my life. Thank you sweet Jesus. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin. 1 John 1:5-7 NKJV
It is so important as Christians to let our light shine, it is so easy when trials arise to shut the light off and let the dark show and that is exactly what the devil wants. To have true fellowship with The Lord is defined by our actions, remember non believers and some believers are watching what we do under the gun. Today I pray that we all would light our light shine to the glory of God, for he created light and he is light………..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
“WHEN SOMETHING IN YOUR LIFE OR THOUGHTS makes you anxious, come to GOD and talk about it. Bring GOD your prayer and petition with thanksgiving, saying: “Thank You, Jesus, for this opportunity to trust You more.” Though the lessons of trust that The LORD sends to you come wrapped in difficulties, the benefits far outweigh the cost. Well-developed trust will bring you many blessings, not the least of which is The LORD’S Peace. GOD has promised to keep you in perfect Peace to the extent that you trust in HIM. The world has it backwards, teaching that peace is the result of having enough money, possessions, insurance, and security systems. GOD’S Peace, however, is such an all-encompassing gift that it is independent of all circumstances. Though you lose everything else, if you gain GOD’S Peace you are rich indeed.”
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. PHILIPPIANS 4 : 6 (NKJV)
You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in you. ISAIAH 26 : 3
Prayer: Though the road in life is bumpy and sometimes filled with heartache, thank you Jesus that your peace is independent of all circumstances. And to the extent that I place my trust in You, you promise to keep me in perfect peace. In Jesus’ precious name. Amen.
Never let loyalty and kindness leave you! Tie them around your neck as a reminder. Write them deep within your heart. Proverbs 3:3 NLT
How do people view you? Are you kind and caring? Do you lend a helping hand when it’s needed? Today I pray we would all put this proverb to work and be kind and helpful to all we can…..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
“STOP JUDGING AND EVALUATING YOURSELF, for this is not your role. Above all, stop comparing yourself with other people. This produces feelings of pride or inferiority; sometimes, a mixture of both. GOD leads each of HIS children along a path that is uniquely tailor-made for him or her. Comparing is not only wrong; it is also meaningless. Don’t look for affirmation in the wrong places: your own evaluations, or those of other people. The only source of real affirmation is The LORD’S unconditional Love. Many believers perceive The LORD as an unpleasable Judge, angrily searching out their faults and failures. Nothing could be farther from the truth! CHRIST, The LORD died for your sins, so that HE might clothe you in HIS garments of salvation. This is how The LORD sees you: radiant in HIS robe of righteousness. When GOD disciplines you, it is never in anger or disgust; it is to prepare you for face-to-Face fellowship with GOD throughout all eternity. Immerse yourself in GOD’S loving Presence. Be receptive to GOD’S affirmation, which flows continually from HIS throne of grace.”
“Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.” LUKE 6 : 37
“For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.” JOHN 3 : 17
I will greatly rejoice in the LORD, My soul shall be joyful in my God; For He has clothed me with the garments of salvation, He has covered me with the robe of righteousness, As a bridegroom decks himself with ornaments, And as a bride adorns herself with her jewels. ISAIAH 61 : 10 (NKJV)
Prayer: Jesus thank you for making a way so we can spend eternity with you. No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has imagined what the Lord has prepared for those who love him. In Jesus’ saving name. Amen.
Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand. Isaiah 41:10 NLT
Are you feeling defeated today? Do you feel like you are in a hole so deep you will never get out? God’s promise is that he has the situation, we may not see a way but God has all the ways. Today I pray that we would put our trust in the Lord and understand that his ways are not our ways most of the time……….. Be Blessed and Trust in the Lord
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 LEADING YOU, STEP BY STEP, through your life. Hold GOD’S hand in trusting dependence, letting HIM guide you through this day. Your future looks uncertain and feels flimsy—even precarious. That is how it should be. Secret things belong to the Lord, and future things are secret things. When you try to figure out the future, you are grasping at things that are The LORD’S. This, like all forms of worry, is an act of rebellion: doubting GOD’S promises to care for you. Whenever you find yourself worrying about the future, repent and return to GOD. GOD will show you the next step forward, and the one after that, and the one after that. Relax and enjoy the journey in The LORD’S Presence, trusting GOD to open up the way before you as you go.”
The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but the things revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may follow all the words of this law. DEUTERONOMY 29 : 29
I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you and watch over you. PSALM 32 : 8
Prayer: Lord, when I try to figure out the future, gently remind me that it is yours to know and for me to trust. When the time is right, you will reveal one step at a time. I trust you have a good plan for my future because you are a good God. Show me the next step you want me to take, Lord. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
