“I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.” John 16:33 NLT
Where is your perfect peace in these out of control times? Are you fretting the Covid? The Riots? All the other end times signs? The world is broken and we have too have our armor on everyday as Christians, be smart and do not put yourself in a bad situation. Today’s prayer is for the world!

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
“RELAX IN GOD’S HEALING, holy Presence. Be still, while GOD transforms your heart and mind. Let go of cares and worries, so that you can receive The LORD’S Peace. Cease striving, and know that The LORD is God. Do not be like Pharisees who multiplied regulations, creating their own form of “godliness.” They got so wrapped up in their own rules that they lost sight of GOD. Even today, man-made rules about how to live the Christian life enslave many people. Their focus is on their performance, rather than on GOD. It is through knowing The LORD intimately that you become like HIM. This requires spending time alone with GOD. Let go, relax, be still, and know that The LORD is God.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth! PSALM 46 : 10 (NKJV)
Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when he appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is. 1 JOHN 3 : 2
Prayer: God help me to relax in your holy Presence. To be still while you renew my heart and mind. To read your word which is a light to my feet and a lamp to my path. Transform me to think, act, and be a little more like Jesus each day. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
“GOD IS INVOLVED in each moment of your life. GOD has carefully mapped out every inch of your journey through this day, even though much of it may feel haphazard. Because the world is in a fallen condition, things always seem to be unravelling around the edges. Expect to find trouble in this day. At the same time, trust that GOD’S way is perfect, even in the midst of such messy imperfection. Stay conscious of GOD as you go through this day, remembering that The LORD never leaves your side. Let the Holy Spirit guide you step by step, protecting you from unnecessary trials and equipping you to get through whatever must be endured. As you trudge through the sludge of this fallen world, keep your mind in heavenly places with GOD. Thus the Light of GOD’S Presence shines on you, giving you Peace and Joy that circumstances cannot touch.”. para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the LORD is flawless. He is a shield for all who take refuge in him. PSALM 18 : 30

“GOD IS WITH YOU, watching over you constantly. The LORD is Emmanuel (God with you); GOD’S Presence enfolds you in radiant Love. Nothing, including the brightest blessings and the darkest trials, can separate you from GOD. Some of GOD’S children find HIM more readily during dark times, when difficulties force them to depend on The LORD. Others feel closer to GOD when their lives are filled with good things. They respond with thanksgiving and praise, thus opening wide the door to The LORD’S Presence. GOD knows precisely what you need to draw nearer to HIM. Go through each day looking for what Tee LORD has prepared for you. Accept every event as GOD’S hand-tailored provision for your needs. When you view your life this way, the most reasonable response is to be thankful. Do not reject any of The LORD’S gifts; find GOD in every situation.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

“LORD, how they have increased who trouble me! Many are they who rise up against me. Many are they who say of me, “ There is no help for him in God.” Selah But You, O LORD, are a shield for me, My glory and the One who lifts up my head.” Psalms 3:1-3 NKJV
There will always be people that come against you for your beliefs but remember that God is always there to give you strength in this time of need. Today’s prayer is that in your times of trials and persecution you would lean on the Lord…..Be Blessed

“LET GOD ANOINT YOU with HIS Presence. GOD is King of kings and Lord of lords, dwelling in unapproachable Light. When you draw near to GOD, HE responds by coming closer to you. As GOD’S Presence envelops you, you may feel overwhelmed by HIS Power and Glory. This is a form of worship: sensing your smallness in comparison to GOD’S Greatness. Man has tended to make himself the measure of all things. But man’s measure is too tiny to comprehend The LORD’S majestic vastness. That is why most people do not see GOD at all, even though they live and move and have their being in GOD. Enjoy the radiant beauty of GOD’S Presence. Declare GOD’S glorious Being to the world!” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords, who alone is immortal and who lives in unapproachable light, whom no one has seen or can see. To him be honor and might forever. Amen. 1 TIMOTHY 6 : 15 – 16
Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. JAMES 4 : 8
“‘For in him we live and move and have our being.’ As some of your own poets have said, ‘We are his offspring.’” ACTS 17 : 28
Great is the LORD and most worthy of praise; his greatness no one can fathom. One generation will commend your works to another; they will tell of your mighty acts. They will speak of the glorious splendor of your majesty, and I will meditate on your wonderful works. They will tell of the power of your awesome works, and I will proclaim your great deeds. PSALM 145 : 3 – 6
Prayer: Lord I come close to you today. Envelop me in your loving arms. Hold me close. And open my eyes to see more of you in and around me today. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
Praise report update: Week or so ago I made a special prayer request for a Mom named Brandi and her daughter Layla – I got an update this morning that both are doing well and doors were opened for them that had been closed these doors have allowed Brandi and Layla to move to where they have the family support they need to not only stay together but for Brandi to get the help she needs to get back on track. PRAYERS WORK!!!
“SEEK GOD’S FACE at the beginning of your day. This practice enables you to “put GOD on” and “wear GOD” throughout the day. Most people put on clothes soon after arising from bed. Similarly, the sooner you “put GOD on” by communicating with GOD, the better prepared you are for whatever comes your way. To “wear GOD” is essentially to have GOD’S mind: to think HIS thoughts. Ask the Holy Spirit to control your thinking; be transformed by this renewal within you. Thus you are well equipped to face whatever people and situations GOD brings your way. Clothing your mind in GOD is your best preparation for each day. This discipline brings Joy and Peace to you and those around you.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
When You said, “Seek My face,” My heart said to You, “Your face, LORD, I will seek.” PSALM 27 : 8 (NKJV)
Rather, clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, and do not think about how to gratify the desires of the sinful nature. ROMANS 13 : 14
Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. COLOSSIANS 3 : 12
Prayer: Lord help me to prioritize seeking you each morning, to put you in as I do my clothes. Holy Spirit control my thoughts today, make them obedient to Christ. And let compassion for others abound and overflow in and through me today just as Jesus shows me compassion. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
