Matthew 7:24-27

“Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock. “But everyone who hears these sayings of Mine, and does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great was its fall.” Matthew 7:24-27 NKJV

Foundation is the key to everything, foundation supports your marriage, attitude, thoughts, job, and the list goes on and on. The key to a peaceful life is building everything you have on a solid foundation, and that starts with your relationship with Jesus. In this scripture Jesus says whoever hears is wise and whoever does not is foolish!!!! We have all heard his words so what is your foundation built on? Today I pray that all will return to the everlasting foundation in Jesus, he is the solid rock and the cornerstone to all in our lives……..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

SEEK GOD with your whole being. – DEUTERONOMY 4 : 29, HEBREWS 10 : 23, PSALM 145 : 20

https://youtu.be/AKZO1a9B1vw

“SEEK GOD with your whole being. GOD desires to be found by you, and The LORD orchestrates the events of your life with that purpose in mind. When things go well and you are blessed, you can feel The LORD smiling on you. When you encounter rough patches along your life-journey, trust that GOD’S Light is still shining upon you. The LORD’S reasons for allowing these adversities may be shrouded in mystery, but HIS continual Presence with you is an absolute promise. Seek GOD in good times; seek GOD in hard times. You will find The LORD watching over you all the time.”

Scripture

But if from there you seek the LORD your God, you will find him if you look for him with all your heart and with all your soul. DEUTERONOMY 4 : 29

Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful. HEBREWS 10 : 23

The LORD watches over all who love him, but all the wicked he will destroy. PSALM 145 : 20

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, thank you for your promise to always be with me in good times and tough times; and for guiding me in your path of light. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

1 Timothy‬ ‭4:1-2

“Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons, speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron,” 1 Timothy‬ ‭4:1-2‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Everybody has their own opinion but is that the gospel? The world is full of lies of the Father of lies – Satan!!!! Do you want to follow deceit or truth ? Today’s prayer is that opinions mean nothing, truth is truth!!!!! You have a choice to follow truth or deceit!!!! Which do you choose? Be Blessed and follow the right path………

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

GROW STRONG IN YOUR WEAKNESS. – JAMES 4 : 13 – 15, PROVERBS 3 : 5, ISAIAH 40 : 28 – 31

https://youtu.be/NL3Gvdmrayc

“GROW STRONG IN YOUR WEAKNESS. Some of GOD’S children HE has gifted with abundant strength and stamina. Others, like you, have received the humble gift of frailty. Your fragility is not a punishment, nor does it indicate lack of faith. On the contrary, weak ones like you must live by faith, depending on The LORD to get you through the day. GOD is developing your ability to trust HIM, to lean on HIM, rather than on your understanding. Your natural preference is to plan out your day, knowing what will happen when. GOD’S preference is for you to depend on HIM continually, trusting The LORD to guide you and strengthen you as needed. This is how you grow strong in your weakness.”

Scripture

Now listen, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money.” Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. Instead, you ought to say, “If it is the Lord’s will, we will live and do this or that.” JAMES 4 : 13 – 15

Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. PROVERBS 3 : 5

Do you not know? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. ISAIAH 40 : 28 – 31

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, help me to depend on you continually, trusting you to guide me and strengthen me with the exact portion I need for today. You know what’s up ahead, and that’s enough for me. I trust you with my life, Lord. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

‭‭1 John‬ ‭2:28

“And now, dear children, remain in fellowship with Christ so that when he returns, you will be full of courage and not shrink back from him in shame.” ‭‭1 John‬ ‭2:28‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Imagine on the day of the Lord’s return you think about all you could have done. Think about the calling God put on your life that you ignored because the enemy made you feel unworthy. What about all the time you could have spent with him in fellowship but chose other earthly things, the reality of this is staggering. Today’s prayer is that we would stay in constant fellowship with the Lord, pray for the faith to step out into your calling and know that on that day the Lord will say “enter my faithful servant you have made me proud” 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

THERE IS NO PLACE so desolate that you cannot find GOD there. – GENESIS 16 : 7 – 14

https://youtu.be/ykD0NtTGwos

“THERE IS NO PLACE so desolate that you cannot find GOD there. When Hagar fled from her mistress, Sarah, into the wilderness, she thought she was utterly alone and forsaken. But Hagar encountered GOD in that desolate place. There she addressed GOD as the Living One who sees her. Through that encounter with The LORD’S Presence, she gained courage to return to her mistress. No set of circumstances could ever isolate you from GOD’S loving Presence. Not only does GOD see you always; GOD sees you as a redeemed saint, gloriously radiant in HIS righteousness. That is why The LORD takes great delight in you and rejoices over you with singing!”

Scripture

The angel of the LORD found her by a spring of water in the wilderness, the spring on the way to Shur. And he said, Hagar, servant of Sarai, where have you come from and where are you going? She said, I am fleeing from my mistress Sarai. The angel of the LORD said to her, Return to your mistress and submit to her. The angel of the LORD also said to her, I will surely multiply your offspring so that they cannot be numbered for multitude. And the angel of the LORD said to her, Behold, you are pregnant and shall bear a son. You shall call his name Ishmael, because the LORD has listened to your affliction. He shall be a wild donkey of a man, his hand against everyone and everyone’s hand against him, and he shall dwell over against all his kinsmen. So she called the name of the LORD who spoke to her, You are a God of seeing, for she said, Truly here I have seen him who looks after me. Therefore the well was called Beer-lahai-roi; it lies between Kadesh and Bered. GENESIS 16 : 7 – 14

Prayer

Prayer: God it is amazing when you look at me, you don’t see my mistakes, my shortcomings, you see a redeemed child, clothed in righteousness – because of Jesus. Thank you Jesus. In your name I pray. Amen.

Philippians‬ ‭2‬:‭13‬

For God is working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases him. ‭Philippians‬ ‭2‬:‭13‬ NLT

Do you hear that still small voice telling you to make the right choice, do the right thing? That’s God in us and listening will never bring disappointment. Today I pray that we would listen to the direction of the Holy Spirit and see the results of good choices manifest…….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

DEMONSTRATE YOUR TRUST IN GOD by sitting quietly in HIS Presence. – LUKE 12 : 22 – 26, EPHESIANS 6 : 12, PROVERBS 16 : 3

https://youtu.be/gvl0eBOCsBA

“DEMONSTRATE YOUR TRUST IN GOD by sitting quietly in HIS Presence. Put aside all that is waiting to be done, and refuse to worry about anything. This sacred time together strengthens you and prepares you to face whatever the day will bring. By waiting with GOD before you begin the day’s activities, you proclaim the reality of The LORD’S living Presence. This act of faith—waiting before working—is noted in the spirit world, where your demonstration of trust weakens principalities and powers of darkness. The most effective way to resist evil is to draw near GOD. When you need to take action, GOD will guide you clearly through HIS Holy Spirit and HIS Word. The world is so complex and overstimulating that you can easily lose your sense of direction. Doing countless unnecessary activities will dissipate your energy. When you spend time with GOD, The LORD restores your sense of direction. As you look to GOD for guidance, The LORD enables you to do less but accomplish more.”

Scripture

Then Jesus said to his disciples: “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; or about your body, what you will wear. Life is more than food, and the body more than clothes. Consider the ravens: They do not sow or reap, they have no storeroom or barn; yet God feeds them. And how much more valuable you are than birds! 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 : 22 – 26

For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. EPHESIANS 6 : 12

Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and your plans will succeed. PROVERBS 16 : 3

Personal Note

Personal Note: Part of my work week morning routine is to wake early enough so I can spend time in prayer and The Bible before the demands of work and family start. However part of my work involves working with people across the world and sometimes I wake up to emails for tasks that are already needed. At those times I struggle to prioritize / balance my early AM work responsibilities with spending time with GOD and in HIS Word. Today’s message is a good reminder that the struggle is ALWAYS worth it.

Prayer

Prayer: Lord help me to make time each day to sit quietly in your presence, putting aside all that is waiting to be done, refusing to worry about anything. To wait before working – allowing you to strengthen and prepare me to face whatever the day will bring. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭6:27

“Can a man scoop fire into his lap without his clothes being burned?” ‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭6:27‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Although we have been forgiven all our sin as believers, continuing to live in sin has it’s consequences!!! The day we found Jesus we became a new creation, a new person, although we are still tempted by the worldly things we are a changed person. Today’s prayer is that we would all pray for the Holy Spirit to help us to live a life that is pleasing to 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

GROW STRONG in the Light of GOD’S Presence. – PSALM 4 : 6 – 8, REVELATION 21 : 23

https://youtu.be/Qx5PHTAWp8w

“GROW STRONG in the Light of GOD’S Presence. As GOD’s Face shines upon you, you receive nutrients that enhance your growth in grace. GOD designed you to commune with HIM face to Face, and this interaction strengthens your soul. Such communion provides a tiny glimpse of what awaits you in heaven, where all barriers between you and The LORD’S Glory will be removed. This meditative time with GOD blesses you doubly: You experience GOD”S Presence here and now, and you are refreshed by the hope of heaven, where you will know The LORD in ecstatic Joy.”

Many are asking, “Who can show us any good?” Let the light of your face shine upon us, O LORD. You have filled my heart with greater joy than when their grain and new wine abound. I will lie down and sleep in peace, for you alone, O LORD, make me dwell in safety. PSALM 4 : 6 – 8

The city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and the Lamb is its lamp. REVELATION 21 : 23

Prayer: Lord you have filled my heart with greater joy than words can explain. Help me to grow strong in the light of your presence. Thank you for your presence now and for the hope of Heaven. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
