Daily Devotional Video 6/30/2020 – JOHN 8 : 32, PHILIPPIANS 2 : 13, JOHN 14 : 6

https://youtu.be/h_hpk4susq0

“GOD IS THE TRUTH: the One who came to set you free. As the Holy Spirit controls your mind and actions more fully, you become free in GOD. You are increasingly released to become the one GOD created you to be. This is a work that GOD does in you as you yield to HIS Holy Spirit. GOD can do HIS best handiwork when you sit in the stillness of HIS Presence, focusing your entire being on HIM. Let The LORD’S thoughts burst freely upon your consciousness, stimulating abundant Life. The LORD is the Way and the Truth and the Life. As you follow GOD, HE leads you along paths of newness: ways you have never imagined. Don’t worry about what is on the road up ahead. GOD wants you to find your security in knowing The LORD, the One who died to set you free.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

“Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” JOHN 8 : 32

For it is God who works in you to will and to act according to his good purpose. PHILIPPIANS 2 : 13

Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” JOHN 14 : 6

Prayer: Lord help me to yield to your Holy Spirit. Control my mind today and make every thought obedient to you. Help me to find my security in knowing you and guide me as I learn to sit in the stillness of your presense. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Hebrews‬ ‭4‬:‭15-16‬

This High Priest of ours understands our weaknesses, for he faced all of the same testings we do, yet he did not sin. So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most. (‭Hebrews‬ ‭4‬:‭15-16‬ NLT)

Now more than ever we need to understand Gods grace, all the sin that is going on in the world,all the bad things that are happening,don’t lose your faith that God is still there, he always has been. Today I pray that we would not give up on our faith, that we would understand that Jesus knows!!! And he is coming back……..Be Blessed and receive Gods great Grace

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

Daily Devotional Video 6/29/2020 – PSALM 5 : 30, PSALM 63 : 1, PHILIPPIANS 4 : 13

https://youtu.be/9cAs2ZyZr_I

“AS YOU GET OUT OF BED in the morning, be aware of GOD’S Presence with you. You may not be thinking clearly yet, but GOD is. Your early morning thoughts tend to be anxious ones until you get connected with GOD. Invite GOD into your thoughts by whispering HIS Name. Suddenly your day brightens and feels more user-friendly. You cannot dread a day that is vibrant with GOD’S Presence. You gain confidence through knowing that GOD is with you— that you face nothing alone. Anxiety stems from asking the wrong question: “If such and such happens, can I handle it?” The true question is not whether you can cope with whatever happens, but whether you and GOD together can handle anything that occurs. It is this you-and-GOD-together factor that gives you confidence to face the day cheerfully.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

In the morning, O LORD, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait in expectation. PSALM 5 : 30

God, You are my God; Early will I seek You; My soul thirsts for You; My flesh longs for You In a dry and thirsty land Where there is no water. PSALM 63 : 1 (NKJV)

I can do everything through him who gives me strength. PHILIPPIANS 4 : 13

Personal Note: For the last few years part of my personal workday morning routine has been combining morning prayer & Bible Study with the morning coffee before the rest of my family wakes up and the day begins. This gets my mind and soul right for the day and makes it impossible to begin a day with stress – Give the LORD the 1st of your day and the rest of the day becomes easier.

Prayer: Lord you are my God, early each day I will seek you. My soul thirsts for you. My flesh longs for you in a dry and thirsty land where there is no water. Nothing on this earth can fill the void in me, it is only you that can fill me Jesus. Help me turn to you more this week. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

John‬ ‭15:13

“Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.”
‭‭John‬ ‭15:13‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Do you have a friend that would lay their life for you? But the strange thing is we put our trust in them. Jesus calls us friends and he did in fact lay his life down for us, that we could live a life of freedom. Today’s prayer is that we would put our total trust in Lord Jesus he is our eternal BFF………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 ‭19:16-18

“Finally Pilate handed him over to them to be crucified. So the soldiers took charge of Jesus. Carrying his own cross, he went out to the place of the Skull (which in Aramaic is called Golgotha). There they crucified him, and with him two others—one on each side and Jesus in the middle.”
‭‭John‬ ‭19:16-18‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Can you even imagine the King of Kings carried his own cross to his crucifixion. Jesus did nothing wrong in all his time on earth but was charged with so many false accusations. In our daily lives we also can be slandered, and how much more do we deserve it than Jesus? This is where Amazing Grace and unconditional love walked in. Today’s prayer is when times get rough we pick up our Cross and walk right to the arms of the savior, he’s always waiting with arms wide open………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 10:10

The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. (John 10:10)

The thief in this passage is the Devil!!! He wants to bring ” doom and gloom” on your whole surroundings. He wants you to feel broke, alone , not good enough , just plain broken. Jesus however says I give you life to the fullest, in abundance ( more than enough) money, happiness, peace, everything. Today who are you gonna believe ? I choose to take the gift that was given to me on the cross LIFE………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

Daily Devotional Video 6/26/2020 – PSALM 23 : 1 – 4 , 2 CORINTHIANS 4 : 16 – 17

https://youtu.be/Dq0CPJWdEwE

“STAY CALMLY conscious of GOD today, no matter what. Remember that GOD goes before you as well as with you into the day. Nothing takes GOD by surprise. The LORD will not allow circumstances to overwhelm you, so long as you look to HIM. GOD will help you cope with whatever the moment presents. Collaborating with GOD brings blessings that far outweigh all your troubles. Awareness of The LORD’S Presence contains Joy that can endure all eventualities.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters. He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name’s sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. PSALM 23 : 1 – 4 (NKJV)

Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. 2 CORINTHIANS 4 : 16 – 17

Prayer: Lord when circumstances threaten to overwhelm me, help me to fix my eyes on you Jesus. To rely on your strength and not my own. You are with me every step of the way and will show me the way, one step at a time. In Jesus’ precious name. Amen.

“And do this, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep; for now our salvation is nearer than when we first believed.”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭13:11‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

This scripture reminds us of the end times. The events going on in the world have been written about since the beginning. We need to have a stronger relationship we Jesus than ever. Today’s prayer is that we would pray for the world and its leaders, witness the gospel to everyone you can……..Be Blessed

https://youtu.be/CjSYF9yjcxc

“OPEN YOUR HANDS and your heart to receive this day as a precious gift from GOD. GOD begins each day with a sunrise, announcing HIS radiant Presence. By the time you rise from your bed, The LORD have already prepared the way before you. The LORD eagerly awaits your first conscious thought. The LORD rejoices when you glance HIS way. Bring GOD the gift of thanksgiving, which opens your heart to rich communion with HIM. Because The LORD is God, from whom all blessings flow, thankfulness is the best way to draw near GOD. Sing praise songs to GOD; tell of HIS wondrous works. Remember that GOD takes great delight in you; GOD rejoices over you with singing.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it. PSALM 118 : 24

Let us come before him with thanksgiving and extol him with music and song. PSALM 95 : 2

“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

Prayer: God help me to start my day with thanksgiving, which opens my heart to rich communion with you. You are the great I Am, and yet you also call me your friend. I’m so grateful for all that you have done and are doing for me Lord. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
