2 Timothy‬ ‭2:3-7‬

“Endure suffering along with me, as a good soldier of Christ Jesus. Soldiers don’t get tied up in the affairs of civilian life, for then they cannot please the officer who enlisted them. And athletes cannot win the prize unless they follow the rules. And hardworking farmers should be the first to enjoy the fruit of their labor. Think about what I am saying. The Lord will help you understand all these things.” ‭‭2 Timothy‬ ‭2:3-7‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Paul speaks of relying on Jesus for strength and knowledge. Are you trying to follow the rules of the world’s standard or the knowledgeable ways of the Lord to win your race? Today’s prayer is that we would all pray for the knowledge to run our race in a way that will please God………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

‭‭John‬ ‭1:8-12

“He himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light. The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world. He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him. Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God—” ‭‭John‬ ‭1:8-12‬ ‭NIV‬‬

John knew he was not the light or the savior, he knew his assignment , to tell all of the one who was coming. Jesus trusts that we as disciples will do the exact same thing, “Tell the world” Today’s prayer is that we would all have the boldness and words to witness to all the non believers…….Be Blessed & witness away🙏🏻

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

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

Do you ever feel like you do and do and do and never get a break? This scripture tells us “At just the right time” what is that right time? Who knows, God knows and his timing is perfect. Today’s prayer is that we would do good not expecting anything in return, but just know that we serve a rewarding God “At just the right time”……..Be Blessed

TRUST GOD ENOUGH to spend ample time with HIM, pushing back the demands of the day. – LUKE 10 : 41 – 42, PSALM 32 : 8

“TRUST GOD ENOUGH to spend ample time with HIM, pushing back the demands of the day. Refuse to feel guilty about something that is so pleasing to GOD, the King of the universe. Because GOD is omnipotent, HE is able to bend time and events in your favor. You will find that you can accomplish more in less time, after you have given yourself to The LORD in rich communion. Also, as you align yourself with GOD’S perspective, you can sort out what is important and what is not. Don’t fall into the trap of being constantly on the go. Many, many things people do in GOD’S Name have no value in HIS kingdom. To avoid doing meaningless works, stay in continual communication with GOD. The LORD will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; The LORD will counsel you with HIS eye upon you.”

Scripture

“Martha, Martha,” the Lord answered, “you are worried and upset about many things, but only one thing is needed. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.” LUKE 10 : 41 – 42

I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will guide you with My eye. PSALM 32 : 8 (NKJV)

Prayer

Prayer: Lord help me to trust you enough to spend ample time with you. Sort out what is important and what is not today. Three things will last forever, faith, hope, and love. And the greatest of these is love. Help me prioritize love and kindness over everything else. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

1 Thessalonians‬ ‭3:4‬

“Even while we were with you, we warned you that troubles would soon come—and they did, as you well know.” 1 Thessalonians‬ ‭3:4‬ ‭NLT‬‬

It was written thousands of years ago that troubles would someday come and they have!!! The Bible is a book of prophecy and shadows and I believe this scripture was meant to tell us of the end of days! Do not be alarmed, do not be afraid because Jesus spoke of the end day all through his ministry and I believe they are here. Today’s prayer is that we would embrace the end days as much as we hate the way the world is!!!!! Remember this is not our home. Heaven is and the purpose of our time on earth is to tell all we can of the gospel of Jesus Christ!!!! Are you doing your part?……..Be Blessed

GOD IS ABOVE ALL THINGS: your problems, your pain, and the swirling events in this ever-changing world. – EPHESIANS 2 : 6, MATTHEW 14 : 28 – 32

“GOD IS ABOVE ALL THINGS: your problems, your pain, and the swirling events in this ever-changing world. When you behold GOD’S Face, you rise above circumstances and rest with The LORD in heavenly realms. This is the way of Peace, living in the Light of GOD’S Presence. The LORD guarantees that you will always have problems in this life, but they must not become your focus. When you feel yourself sinking in the sea of circumstances, say “Help me, Jesus!” and The LORD will draw you back to HIM. If you have to say that thousands of times daily, don’t be discouraged. GOD knows your weakness, and GOD meets you in that very place.”

Scripture

And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus. EPHESIANS 2 : 6

“Lord, if it’s you,” Peter replied, “tell me to come to you on the water.” “Come,” he said. Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus. But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!” Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him. “You of little faith,” he said, “why did you doubt?” And when they climbed into the boat, the wind died down. MATTHEW 14 : 28 – 32

Prayer

Prayer: Lord when I’m in your presence you help me rise above my circumstances and rest with you in Heavenly realms. What a peaceful place to be – in your arms. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Proverbs‬ ‭3‬:‭3

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

COME TO GOD AND REST. – MATTHEW 11 : 28 – 29, 1 TIMOTHY 2 : 8

“COME TO GOD AND REST. GOD is all about you, to bless and restore. Breathe The LORD in with each breath. The way just ahead of you is very steep. Slow down and cling tightly to The LORD’S hand. GOD is teaching you a difficult lesson, learned only by hardship. Lift up empty hands of faith to receive GOD’S precious Presence. Light, Life, Joy, and Peace flow freely through this gift. When your focus turns away from The LORD, you grasp for other things. You drop the glowing gift of GOD’S Presence as you reach for lifeless ashes. Return to GOD; regain HIS Presence.”

Scripture

“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

I want men everywhere to lift up holy hands in prayer, without anger or disputing. 1 TIMOTHY 2 : 8

Prayer

Prayer: Lord thank you for giving me rest when I focus on you. Fill me with your joy, peace, light, and life. The enemy comes to steal, kill, and destroy, but you have come to give life, abundant life! Help me to live the way you intended, Lord. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

‭Matthew‬ ‭25‬:‭21

“His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!’ ‭Matthew‬ ‭25‬:‭21‬ NIV

How are you doing with what the Lord has given you? Are you faithful with your gift? When the Lord returns the most important words I would like to hear are “well done my good and faithful servant” Today’s prayer is that we would do all that we can for serving the Lord by sharing our gifts and the gospel while we are here on earth…….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

COME TO GOD FOR REST and refreshment. – ROMANS 8 : 28, PSALM 42 : 11

“COME TO GOD FOR REST and refreshment. The journey has been too much for you, and you are bone-weary. Do not be ashamed of your exhaustion. Instead, see it as an opportunity for GOD to take charge of your life. Remember that GOD can fit everything into a pattern for good, including the things you wish were different. Start with where you are at this point in time and space, accepting that this is where The LORD intends you to be. You will get through today one step, one moment at a time. Your main responsibility is to remain attentive to The LORD, letting HIM guide you through the many choices along your pathway. This sounds like an easy assignment, but it is not. Your desire to live in The LORD’S Presence goes against the grain of “the world, the flesh, and the devil.” Much of your weariness results from your constant battle against these opponents. However, you are on the path of GOD’S choosing, so do not give up! Hope in The LORD, for you will again praise GOD for the help of HIS Presence.”

Scripture

And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. ROMANS 8 : 28

Why are you cast down, O my soul? And why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God; For I shall yet praise Him, The help of my countenance and my God. PSALM 42 : 11 (NKJV)

Prayer

Prayer: Lord thank you for designing me to come to you for rest and refreshment. Guide me through the many choice points today. Help me to be more aware of your presence and to depend on you more and more. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
