“I have hidden your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you.” Psalms 119:11 NLT
The written word of God is so critical for Christians to have in their heart! If the word is on the paper in the binding full of dust on your bookcase it is of no purpose to you!!!! Today’s prayer is that we would all know the word is stamped in our hearts so that we will be a beacon of light for the world to see……..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
“DO NOT WORRY ABOUT TOMORROW! This is not a suggestion, but a command. GOD divided time into days and nights, so that you would have manageable portions of life to handle. GOD’S grace is sufficient for you, but its sufficiency is for only one day at a time. When you worry about the future, you heap day upon day of troubles onto your flimsy frame. You stagger under this heavy load, which The LORD never intended you to carry. Throw off this oppressive burden with one quick thrust of trust. Anxious thoughts meander about and crisscross in your brain, but trusting GOD brings you directly into HIS Presence. As you thus affirm your faith, shackles of worry fall off instantly. Enjoy GOD’S Presence continually by trusting HIM at all times.”
Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. MATTHEW 6 : 34
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
Trust in Him at all times, you people; Pour out your heart before Him; God is a refuge for us. PSALM 62 : 8 (NKJV)
Prayer: Lord you give me enough grace for one day at a time so when my mind wanders into the future, gently remind me to come back to the present, to enjoy the present with you and those around me. Thank you for my daily bread. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
“KEEP WALKING with GOD along the path HE has chosen for you. Your desire to live close to The LORD is a delight to GOD’S heart. The LORD could instantly grant you the spiritual riches you desire, but that is not GOD’S way for you. Together you will forge a pathway up the high mountain. The journey is arduous at times, and you are weak. Someday you will dance light-footed on the high peaks; but for now, your walk is often plodding and heavy. All GOD requires of you is to take the next step, clinging to HIS hand for strength and direction. Though the path is difficult and the scenery dull at the moment, there are sparkling surprises just around the bend. Stay on the path GOD has selected for you. It is truly the path of Life.”
If the LORD delights in a man’s way, he makes his steps firm; though he stumble, he will not fall, for the LORD upholds him with his hand. PSALM 37 : 23 – 24
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, thank you for the reminder there is a purpose in every pain, and in this life we will have trouble but to take heart because you have overcome the world and one fine day there will be no more pain or suffering, no sickness, no tears. Only endless joy. Thank you Lord. Amen.
“For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 6:23 ESV
This scripture speaks about choice, we all were born into sin but throughout our life we are given a choice to continue to live in sin or gain freedom through the sacrifice that Jesus paid. Today’s prayer is that we would truly seek to bring souls to the Lord! Let the cross of Calvary not be for just sum but for all…….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 WANTS YOU TO EXPERIENCE the riches of your salvation: the Joy of being loved constantly and perfectly. You make a practice of judging yourself, based on how you look or behave or feel. If you like what you see in the mirror, you feel a bit more worthy of GOD’S Love. When things are going smoothly and your performance seems adequate, you find it easier to believe you are The LORD’S beloved child. When you feel discouraged, you tend to look inward so you can correct whatever is wrong. Instead of trying to “fix” yourself, fix your gaze on GOD, the Lover of your soul. Rather than using your energy to judge yourself, redirect it to praising The LORD. Remember that GOD sees you clothed in HIS righteousness, radiant in HIS perfect Love.”
. . . in order that in the coming ages he might show the incomparable riches of his grace, expressed in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus. For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God. EPHESIANS 2 : 7 – 8
Therefore, holy brothers, who share in the heavenly calling, fix your thoughts on Jesus, the apostle and high priest whom we confess. HEBREWS 3 : 1
Those who look to him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame. PSALM 34 : 5
Prayer: God instead of trying to fix myself or my problems, help me to fix my eyes and my thoughts on you. To redirect my energy to praising and thanking you for all you’ve done and all you are going to do. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
“But if anyone obeys his word, love for God is truly made complete in them. This is how we know we are in him: Whoever claims to live in him must live as Jesus did.” 1 John 2:5-6 NIV
This scripture breaks it down in such simple terms it’s amazing. If someone asked you do you love God what would your response be? Of course it would be YES so if you love God don’t you want to try to please him at all times? To live like Jesus is to live a life that is pleasing to God, have a heart of a servant. Today’s prayer is that we would wake up daily and start our day out by praying “Heavenly Father let me not serve myself today, but serve only you” let your will be done throughout my day and make this day not mine but yours” I believe this confession will help us all live more like Jesus……..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
“WHENEVER YOU FEEL DISTANT from GOD, whisper GOD’S Name in loving trust. This simple prayer can restore your awareness of GOD’S Presence. GOD’S Name is constantly abused in the world, where people use it as a curse word. This verbal assault reaches all the way to heaven; every word is heard and recorded. When you trustingly whisper The LORD’S Name, HIS aching ears are soothed. The grating rancor of the world’s blasphemies cannot compete with a trusting child’s utterance: “Jesus.” The power of The LORD’S Name to bless both you and GOD is beyond your understanding.”
“Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved.” ACTS 4 : 12
Until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive, and your joy will be complete. JOHN 16 : 24
Prayer: There is no other name like the name of Jesus. Thank you Lord for reminding me to pray for anything in your name, and if it’s in your will, it will be done in your perfect timing. In Jesus’ precious name I pray. Amen.
If you look for me wholeheartedly, you will find me. Jeremiah 29:13 NLT
Are you seeking the Lord in all things or just when you need something? This scripture says ” wholeheartedly ” meaning with everything you have. To truly seek the Lord is to stand on his word in tough circumstances, as well as giving thanksgiving for them, to seek him when making every decision and listening to the spirits direction. Today I pray that we would all seek God in all areas and give thanks whatever the outcome, for the Lords will for us is all GOOD…….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
“making the word of God of no effect through your tradition which you have handed down. And many such things you do.” Mark 7:13 NKJV
Religious traditions are a killer!!!! The word of God is so clear on all that God wants, does, has, and has done for us. Today read the word with spiritual eyes and let it speak to you, never take just one part of the word to build a tradition. Today I pray that all of us would understand just what Jesus did for us on the cross……..be blessed
2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new
