Daily Devotional Video 5/7/2020 – GENESIS 50 : 20, PSALM 23 : 4

https://youtu.be/6lyuul5xkEA

“IF YOU LEARN TO TRUST GOD—really trust GOD—with your whole being, then nothing can separate you from GOD’S Peace. Everything you endure can be put to good use by allowing it to train you in trusting The LORD. This is how you foil the works of evil, growing in grace through the very adversity that was meant to harm you. Joseph was a prime example of this divine reversal, declaring to his brothers: “You meant evil against me, but God meant it for good.” Do not fear what this day, or any day, may bring your way. Concentrate on trusting GOD and on doing what needs to be done. Relax in GOD’S sovereignty, remembering that The LORD goes before you, as well as with you, into each day. Fear no evil, for GOD can bring good out of every situation you will ever encounter.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

But as for you, you meant evil against me; but God meant it for good, in order to bring it about as it is this day, to save many people alive. GENESIS 50 : 20 (NKJV)

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. PSALM 23 : 4

Prayer: God help me to see every circumstance as a way to continue to train me to trust you. A daily exercise growing my trust muscle. Help me to relax in your sovereignty, remembering that you go before me and are with me each moment. You promise to use everything for the good of those who love you. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Daily Devotional Video 5/6/2020 – ISAIAH 26 : 3, 2 CORINTHIANS 4 : 18

https://youtu.be/UNxtWMQPoIY

“DO NOT SEARCH FOR SECURITY in the world you inhabit. You tend to make mental check-lists of things you need to do in order to gain control of your life. If only you could check everything off your list, you could relax and be at peace. But the more you work to accomplish that goal, the more things crop up on your list. The harder you try, the more frustrated you become. There is a better way to find security in this life. Instead of scrutinizing your check-list, focus your attention on GOD’S Presence with you. This continual contact with The LORD will keep you in HIS Peace. Moreover, GOD will help you sort out what is important and what is not, what needs to be done now and what does not. Fix your eyes not on what is seen (your circumstances), but on what is unseen (GOD’S Presence).” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

You will keep him in perfect peace, Whose mind is stayed on You, Because he trusts in You. ISAIAH 26 : 3 (NKJV)

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 : 18

Prayer: God help me to focus my attention on your presence with me. Attune my heart to discern what is important and what can wait to do. Help me to fix my eyes on eternal things today – You, Your Word, and People. The only 3 things that are eternal. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Galatians‬ ‭6‬:‭9

So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up. (‭Galatians‬ ‭6‬:‭9‬ NLT)

Does it ever feel like you try to do good and others do you wrong? You try to get ahead but always seem to get behind? You hold the door for someone and they don’t say thank you? Well we all at some point have experienced this, but take heart the harvest is coming. This scripture talks about just the right time, it’s easy to get frustrated but Gods word is never void. Today I pray that no matter what the situation we would be Christ minded and treat all right no matter what our flesh says……..Be Blessed & 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

Daily Devotional Video 5/5/2020 – PSALM 95 : 2, 1 JOHN 1 : 5

https://youtu.be/ACYmhXog77I

“COME TO GOD for all that you need. Come into GOD’S Presence with thanksgiving, for thankfulness opens the door to The LORD’s treasures. When you are thankful, you affirm the central truth that GOD is Good. GOD is Light, in whom there is no darkness at all. The assurance that GOD is entirely Good meets your basic need for security. Your life is not subject to the whims of a sin-stained deity. Relax in the knowledge that the One who controls your life is totally trustworthy. Come to GOD with confident expectation. There is nothing you need that The LORD cannot provide.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

Let us come before him with thanksgiving and extol him with music and song. PSALM 95 : 2

This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all. 1 JOHN 1 : 5

Prayer: Lord I come to you with confident expectation that you will meet all my needs according to your glorious riches. There is nothing I need that you cannot provide. Help me to come to you with a thankful heart, affirming that you are always good. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Daily Devotional Video 5/4/2020 – PSALM 29 : 2, 1 PETER 1 : 8

https://youtu.be/gcxkYOw9mP8

“MEET GOD IN MORNING STILLNESS, while the earth is fresh with the dew of GOD’S Presence. Worship GOD in the beauty of holiness. Sing love songs to The LORD’S holy Name. As you give yourself to GOD, HIS Holy Spirit swells within you till you are flooded with divine Presence. The world’s way of pursuing riches is grasping and hoarding. You attain GOD’S riches by letting go and giving. The more you give yourself to GOD and HIS ways, the more GOD fills you with inexpressible, heavenly Joy.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

Give unto the LORD the glory due to His name; Worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness. PSALM 29 : 2 (NKJV)

Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy. 1 PETER 1 : 8

Prayer: Lord as I spend time with you this week, fill me with your inexpressible and glorious joy. Help me to attain my riches by letting go and giving. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

1 Peter‬ ‭4:7-10‬

“The end of all things is near. Therefore be alert and of sober mind so that you may pray. Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling. Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.” 1 Peter‬ ‭4:7-10‬ ‭NIV‬‬
‭‭
My friends this scripture sends not only a warning but also instruction. To be of a sober mind is to have the mind of Christ, and what kind of mind would that be? A mind that only serves the will of God. As for the end is near warning I fully believe this is truth today as we look at all the situations in the world. Today’s prayer is that we would have the mind of Christ and walk a walk filled with love 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

‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭7:17‬

“Nevertheless, each person should live as a believer in whatever situation the Lord has assigned to them, just as God has called them. This is the rule I lay down in all the churches.”
‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭7:17‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Do you ever wonder what your purpose is? Have you ever seen the worship leader and said “I wish that were me”? Do you not understand that the little old lady handing out the pamphlets at the door is just as important in Gods eyes. God has given each one of us a individual gift, how we choose to use it is up to us. The body works together and one finger is as important as one hand. Today I pray that whatever gift you have been given by God that you would use it to please and glorify the Lord not man………..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

Daily Devotional Video 5/1/2020 – LUKE 12 : 25 – 26, LUKE 1 : 79

https://youtu.be/mEf1etz9Uwk

“YOU ARE ON THE PATH of GOD’S choosing. There is no randomness about your life. Here and Now comprise the coordinates of your daily life. Most people let their moments slip through their fingers, half-lived. They avoid the present by worrying about the future or longing for a better time and place. They forget that they are creatures who are subject to the limitations of time and space. They forget their Creator, who walks with them only in the present. Every moment is alive with GOD’S glorious Presence, to those whose hearts are intimately connected with GOD’S. As you give yourself more and more to a life of constant communion with The LORD, you will find that you simply have no time for worry. Thus, you are freed to let GOD’S Holy Spirit direct your steps, enabling you to walk along the path of Peace.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

“Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life? Since you cannot do this very little thing, why do you worry about the rest?” LUKE 12 : 25 – 26

“. . . to shine on those living in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the path of peace.” LUKE 1 : 79

Prayer: Holy Spirit direct my steps today, lead me down the path of peace. When I start to worry, gently remind me of your promises to take care of me and never leave me. Help me to focus on enjoying the present moments you give me today, each one. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Daily Devotional Video 4/30/2020 – JAMES 1 : 2 , 2 CORINTHIANS 12 : 9

https://youtu.be/lxQtDHd-VBs

“WHEN SOME BASIC NEED IS LACKING—time, energy, money—consider yourself blessed. Your very lack is an opportunity to latch onto GOD in unashamed dependence. When you begin a day with inadequate resources, you must concentrate your efforts on the present moment. This is where you are meant to live—in the present; it is the place where GOD always awaits you. Awareness of your inadequacy is a rich blessing, training you to rely wholeheartedly on GOD. The truth is that self-sufficiency is a myth perpetuated by pride and temporary success. Health and wealth can disappear instantly, as can life itself. Rejoice in your insufficiency, knowing that GOD’S Power is made perfect in weakness.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds. JAMES 1 : 2

And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 2 CORINTHIANS 12 : 9 (NKJV)

Prayer: God help me to latch onto you in unashamed dependence for all my needs today both big and small. This is the way you intended me to live, close and leaning on you. When my pride creeps in, gently bring me back to my center – Christ Jesus. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
