1 Thessalonians‬ ‭5:11

“So encourage each other and build each other up, just as you are already doing.” ‭‭1 Thessalonians‬ ‭5:11‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Are you encouraging or are you breaking people down? Encouragement is one of the most important traits a person can have in my opinion, the world will break us down but being positive and encouraging others will bring hope. Today’s prayer is that in the midst of everything that is going on we would stand in God’s word and always do our best to shed that light of encouragement……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

Acts‬ ‭23:11‬

“The following night the Lord stood near Paul and said, “Take courage! As you have testified about me in Jerusalem, so you must also testify in Rome.”” Acts‬ ‭23:11‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Do you sometimes feel like your assignment is fulfilled? Nope!!!! I believe our assignment is life long. Paul knew that going to Rome would be his final assignment of the Lord but was obedient to the end. Opposition awaits us as believers but the gospel is life changing in places that we would least expect. Today’s prayer is that we against our fears would be obedient to our assignments and pray up before heading into them……..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 RENEWING YOUR MIND. – ROMANS 12 : 2, PSALM 105 : 4

    https://youtu.be/qiW88K9kzOA

    “GOD IS RENEWING YOUR MIND. When your thoughts flow freely, they tend to move toward problems. Your focus gets snagged on a given problem, circling round and round it in attempts to gain mastery. Your energy is drained away from other matters through this negative focus. Worst of all, you lose sight of GOD. A renewed mind is Presence-focused. Train your mind to seek The LORD in every moment, every situation. Sometimes you can find GOD in your surroundings: a lilting birdsong, a loved one’s smile, golden sunlight. At other times, you must draw inward to find The LORD. GOD is always present in your spirit. Seek GOD’S Face, speak to HIM, and GOD will light up your mind.”

    Scripture

    Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. ROMANS 12 : 2

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

    Prayer

    Prayer: Heavenly Father, help me to focus more on your presence than on my problems. Renew my mind and teach me how to be more Presence-focused today. You are the great I AM and you have never lost a battle. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

    3 John‬ ‭1:4

    “I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth.” ‭‭3 John‬ ‭1:4‬ ‭NIV‬‬

    To make God smile is to walk in his ways! I believe when we try our best to do good whether or not we succeed it makes God smile (and yes we fail every day). Thank God for the grace given to us. Today’s prayer is that we all would do our best to please God by our daily actions and show his love to everyone …….. Be Blessed

    FOLLOW GOD ONE STEP AT A TIME. – PSALM 18 : 29, PSALM 91 : 11 – 12, 2 CORINTHIANS 5 : 7

    https://youtu.be/RcdglMD_r7o

    “FOLLOW GOD ONE STEP AT A TIME. That is all GOD requires of you. In fact, that is the only way to move through this space/time world. You see huge mountains looming, and you start wondering how you’re going to scale those heights. Meanwhile, because you’re not looking where you’re going, you stumble on the easy path where GOD is leading you now. As GOD helps you get back on your feet, you tell HIM how worried you are about the cliffs up ahead. But you don’t know what will happen today, much less tomorrow. Your path may take an abrupt turn, leading you away from those mountains. There may be an easier way up the mountains than is visible from this distance. If The LORD does lead you up the cliffs, HE will equip you thoroughly for that strenuous climb. GOD will even give HIS angels charge over you, to preserve you in all your ways. “

    Scripture

    Keep your mind on the present journey, enjoying My Presence. Walk by faith, not by sight, trusting Me to open up the way before you. With your help I can advance against a troop; with my God I can scale a wall. PSALM 18 : 29

    For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways. On their hands they will bear you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone. PSALM 91 : 11 – 12

    For we walk by faith, not by sight. 2 CORINTHIANS 5 : 7 (NKJV)

    Prayer

    Prayer: Lord, help me to follow you one step, one day, at a time. If I look too far ahead it’s daunting, but when I follow you one step at a time, holding your hand, I can do all you have called me to do because you equip me with exactly what I need for each day. Give me THIS day my daily bread. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

    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.” 2 Corinthians‬ ‭5:17‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

    Does your past haunt you? Can you just not let go of things that you have done? Well there is good news. This scripture explains that when you received Christ as your personal Lord and savior you became a new creation, that all old has passed away. Today’s prayer is that you would hand your past over to Jesus and live your new life as the new creation you became by the ultimate sacrifice at the cross…..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 YOUR STRENGTH AND SHIELD. – PSALM 28 : 7, MATTHEW 6 : 34, PSALM 56 : 3 – 4, GENESIS 28 : 15

    https://youtu.be/UwxW_dPg740

    “GOD IS YOUR STRENGTH AND SHIELD. GOD plans out each day and has it ready for you, long before you arise from bed. GOD also provides the strength you need each step of the way. Instead of assessing your energy level and wondering about what’s on the road ahead, concentrate on staying in touch with The LORD. GOD’S power flows freely into you through your open communication. Refuse to waste energy worrying, and you will have strength to spare. Whenever you start to feel afraid, remember that The LORD is your Shield. But unlike inanimate armor, GOD is always alert and active. The LORD’S Presence watches over you continually, protecting you from both known and unknown dangers. Entrust yourself to GOD’S watch care, which is the best security system available. The LORD is with you and will watch over you wherever you go.”

    Scripture

    The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and I am helped. My heart leaps for joy and I will give thanks to him in song. PSALM 28 : 7

    Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. MATTHEW 6 : 34

    When I am afraid, I will trust in you. In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I will not be afraid. What can mortal man do to me? PSALM 56 : 3 – 4

    “I am with you and will watch over you wherever you go, and I will bring you back to this land. I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you.” GENESIS 28 : 15

    Prayer

    Prayer: God thank you for being a good, good Father. Open my eyes to see that prayer and surrender is the key to unlocking your peace, joy, and endless strength. When I am afraid, help me to remember that if I surrender to you, you will fight my battles for me every time. And you are far more capable. This is the day the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

    WORSHIP GOD ONLY. – PSALM 112 : 7, 1 CORINTHIANS 13 : 11

    https://youtu.be/wKL1n1h3Pac

    “WORSHIP GOD ONLY. Whatever occupies your mind the most becomes your god. Worries, if indulged, develop into idols. Anxiety gains a life of its own, parasitically infesting your mind. Break free from this bondage by affirming your trust in GOD and refreshing yourself in HIS Presence. What goes on in your mind is invisible, undetectable to other people. But GOD reads your thoughts continually, searching for evidence of trust in HIM. GOD rejoices when your mind turns toward HIM. Guard your thoughts diligently; good thought-choices will keep you close to GOD.”

    Scripture

    He will have no fear of bad news; his heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD. PSALM 112 : 7

    When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. 1 CORINTHIANS 13 : 11

    Prayer

    Prayer: Holy Spirit guard my thoughts diligently today. I want you, your words and your thoughts to occupy my mind. When I start to drift into worrisome thoughts, gently bring me back to you – the prince of peace. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

    Psalms‬ ‭31‬:‭14

    But I am trusting you, O LORD, saying, “You are my God!” Psalms‬ ‭31‬:‭14‬ NLT

    Trust is a characteristic that is lacking in today’s world, to trust someone is to confide your all to them!!! When you truly understand God’s love for you it’s easy to trust him. Today I pray that we would all put our 100% trust in the Lord and not in the things of 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
