John‬ ‭14 : 25 – 26

““These things I have spoken to you while being present with you. But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.” ‭‭John‬ ‭14 : 25 – 26‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

So many opinions on the Holy Spirit!!! Why would there be opinions if Jesus Christ spoke of HIS coming? The truth is the Holy Spirit is alive today more than ever! HE is there to teach us, help us , and most importantly convict us of our righteousness in Jesus Christ. Today’s prayer is that we would really understand the third person of the Trinity and pray for HIS presence to overflow 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 TO PLEASE GOD above all else. | MATTHEW 6 : 33 , JOHN 8 : 29, COLOSSIANS 3 : 23 – 24

https://youtu.be/9IyLfZwQZkM

“SEEK TO PLEASE GOD above all else. Let that goal be your focal point as you go through this day. Such a mind-set will protect you from scattering your energy to the winds. The free will GOD bestowed on you comes with awesome responsibility. Each day presents you with choice after choice. Many of these decisions you ignore and thus make by default. Without a focal point to guide you, you can easily lose your way. That’s why it is so important to stay in communication with GOD, living in thankful awareness of HIS Presence. You inhabit a fallen, disjointed world, where things are constantly unraveling around the edges. Only a vibrant relationship with GOD can keep you from coming unraveled to.”

Scripture

“But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.” MATTHEW 6 : 33 

“The one who sent me is with me; he has not left me alone, for I always do what pleases him.” JOHN 8 : 29 

Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving. COLOSSIANS 3 : 23 – 24

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, I want to seek to please you above all else. Protect me from scattering my energy to the wind. Help me to do everything as if working for you. To be a spouse of excellence, a parent of excellence, and a friend of excellence – with your help. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Psalms‬ ‭11 : 7‬

“For the LORD is righteous, He loves righteousness; His countenance beholds the upright.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭11 : 7‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Oh to be pleasing to GOD, HE loves when we become more like HIS Son. JESUS CHRIST. The way we think determines the way we act, for example if we look at the negative in all situations we will become negative, if we look at the positives we will become positive. Today’s prayer is that we would be bright witnesses to the positive change of having JESUS CHRIST as the cornerstone in our lives and let all know it’s waiting for them as well ……. 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

YOU WILL NOT FIND GOD’S PEACE by engaging in excessive planning |  PETER 5 : 6 – 7, PROVERBS 16 : 9, PSALM 37 : 5

https://youtu.be/dehICQDDdOg

“YOU WILL NOT FIND GOD’S PEACE by engaging in excessive planning: attempting to control what will happen to you in the future. That is a commonly practiced form of unbelief. When your mind spins with multiple plans, Peace may sometimes seem to be within your grasp; yet it always eludes you. Just when you think you have prepared for all possibilities, something unexpected pops up and throws things into confusion. GOD did not design the human mind to figure out the future. That is beyond your capability. GOD crafted your mind for continual communication with HIM. Bring The LORD all your needs, your hopes and fears. Commit everything into The LORD’S care. Turn from the path of planning to the path of Peace.”

Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. 1 PETER 5 : 6 – 7 

In his heart a man plans his course, but the LORD determines his steps. PROVERBS 16 : 9 

Commit your way to the LORD, Trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass. PSALM 37 : 5 (NKJV)

Prayer: God I bring you all my needs, my hopes, and my fears. I lay them at the cross. I commit them into your care. Help me to turn from the path of excessive planning to excessive peace. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Titus‬ ‭2 : 11‬

“For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all men,” ‭‭Titus‬ ‭2 : 11‬ ‭NASB‬‬

Not one of us is different when it comes to the opportunity of receiving salvation. The difference begins when we choose to reject what Jesus Christ did on the Cross. Jesus Christ died that day so that all of us could be set free from the bondage of sin that we were born into, the sad truth is that many will reject the opportunity. Today’s prayer is that we would be a living testimony to what our salvation has done and is doing in our lives every single day! …… Be Blessed

GOD DESIGNED YOU to live in union with HIM | MARK 8 : 36, PSALM 139 : 13 – 16, 2 CORINTHIANS 3 : 17 – 18

https://youtu.be/I51y2JFCHpA

“GOD DESIGNED YOU to live in union with HIM. This union does not negate who you are; it actually makes you more fully yourself. When you try to live independently of GOD, you experience emptiness and dissatisfaction. You may gain the whole world and yet lose everything that really counts. Find fulfillment through living close to GOD, yielding to HIS purposes for you. Though The LORD may lead you along paths that feel alien to you, trust that The LORD knows what HE is doing. If you follow GOD wholeheartedly, you will discover facets of yourself that were previously hidden. GOD knows you intimately —far better than you know yourself. In union with The LORD, you are complete. In closeness to GOD, you are transformed more and more into the one HE designed you to be.”

Scripture

“What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his soul?” MARK 8 : 36 

For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be. PSALM 139 : 13 – 16 

Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his likeness with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit. 2 CORINTHIANS 3 : 17 – 18

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, thank You for designing me to live in union with You — make that union my deepest joy and strength. Help me yield my independence and follow You wholeheartedly, even along paths that feel unfamiliar. Keep me close to you and transform me to look more like Jesus. Amen.

James‬ ‭1‬ : ‭22‬

“Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.” ‭‭James‬ ‭1‬ : ‭22‬ ‭NIV‬‬

To listen to GOD’S word and stop there is no different than reading a non-fiction novel!! When we read GOD’S Word meditate on the scriptures and let them transform your life. Today’s prayer is that our foundation would be built on GOD’S word, and not only hear it but do it …. 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

REST IN GOD, YOU ARE HIS CHILD – JOHN 15 : 13, ZEPHANIAH 3 : 17, NUMBERS 6 : 25 – 26

https://youtu.be/3rS18riSFaI

“REST IN GOD, YOU ARE HIS CHILD. This time devoted to GOD is meant to be peaceful, not stressful. You don’t have to perform in order to receive The LORD’S Love. GOD has boundless, unconditional Love for you. How it grieves The LORD to see HIS children working for Love: trying harder and harder, yet never feeling good enough to be loved. Be careful that your devotion to GOD does not become another form of “works”. GOD wants you to come into HIS Presence joyfully and confidently. You have nothing to fear, for you wear The LORD’S own righteousness. Gaze into GOD’S eyes, and you will see no condemnation, only Love and delight in the one HE sees. Be blessed as GOD’S Face shines radiantly upon you, giving you Peace.”

Scripture

Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. JOHN 15 : 13 

“The LORD your God is with you, he is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, he will quiet you with his love, he will rejoice over you with singing.” ZEPHANIAH 3 : 17 

“The LORD make his face shine upon you and be gracious to you; the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace.” NUMBERS 6 : 25 – 26

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, teach me to rest in You, receiving Your boundless, unconditional love instead of trying to earn it. Help me come into Your presence with joy and confidence, knowing I am clothed in Your righteousness and welcomed with delight.

Ecclesiastes‬ ‭7 ‬: ‭5‬

Better to be criticized by a wise person than to be praised by a fool. ‭Ecclesiastes‬ ‭7 ‬: ‭5‬ NLT

Where are you seeking approval from? The world’s measure? God’s measure? Through life we have been taught right from wrong, if you are living a life that you know does not please God then you can be assured you will have tons of approval from the world’s measure. Today I pray that we all would check where our approval is coming from, the world or God’s word …… 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

RECEIVE GOD’S PEACE. | JOHN 14 : 27, ISAIAH 30 : 15, 2 CORINTHIANS 10 : 4

https://youtu.be/UOhgK8QVaoM

“RECEIVE GOD’S PEACE. It is GOD’S continual gift to you. The best way to receive this gift is to sit quietly in The LORD’S Presence, trusting HIM in every area of your life. Quietness and trust accomplish far more than you can imagine: not only in you, but also on earth and in heaven. When you trust GOD in a given area, you release that problem or person into HIS care. Spending time alone with The LORD can be a difficult discipline, because it goes against the activity addiction of this age. You may appear to be doing nothing, but actually you are participating in battles going on within spiritual realms. You are waging war — not with the weapons of the world, but with heavenly weapons, which have divine power to demolish strongholds. Living close to GOD is a sure defense against evil.”

“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.” JOHN 14 : 27 

This is what the Sovereign LORD, the Holy One of Israel, says: “In repentance and rest is your salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength, but you would have none of it.” ISAIAH 30 : 15 

The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. 2 CORINTHIANS 10 : 4

Prayer: Lord, I want to receive Your peace as Your continual gift—teach me to sit quietly in Your presence and to trust You with every worry. In that stillness, encourage me with Your heavenly strength to release burdens, stand firm against darkness, and partner with You in the work of prayer for Your glory. Amen.
