DO NOT RESIST OR RUN from the difficulties in your life. – JOHN 15 : 5, 2 CORINTHIANS 1 : 8 – 9, EPHESIANS 5 : 20

DO NOT RESIST OR RUN from the difficulties in your life. (https://youtu.be/0O5_E2pk9Z0)

“DO NOT RESIST OR RUN from the difficulties in your life. These problems are not random mistakes; they are hand-tailored blessings designed for your benefit and growth. Embrace all the circumstances that GOD allows in your life, trusting GOD to bring good out of them. View problems as opportunities to rely more fully on The LORD . When you start to feel stressed, let those feelings alert you to your need for GOD. Thus, your needs become doorways to deep dependence on The LORD and increasing intimacy between GOD and yourself. Although self-sufficiency is acclaimed in the world, reliance on GOD produces abundant living in HIS kingdom. Thank The LORD for the difficulties in your life, since they provide protection from the idolatry of self-reliance.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

“I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.” JOHN 15 : 5

We do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, about the hardships we suffered in the province of Asia. We were under great pressure, far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired even of life. Indeed, in our hearts we felt the sentence of death. But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead. 2 CORINTHIANS 1 : 8 – 9

. . . always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. EPHESIANS 5 : 20

Prayer: Lord help me to embrace all the circumstances you allow in my life, trusting you to bring good out of them. And to rely on you more on difficult days. You give me the exact amount of daily bread I need for each day. You know what’s up ahead. I trust your will. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Philippians‬ ‭4:4-6‬

“Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.” ‭‭Philippians‬ ‭4:4-6‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Anxiety is all around us in the world today, are you Anxious? This scripture tells us to Rejoice!!!!! And to Pray in all situations. Today’s prayer is that we would always be thankful for all we have and all we do not, because we have have the most important thing of all Jesus……. Be Blessed and Be Thankful

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

Lamentations‬ ‭3‬:‭22-23

The faithful love of the LORD never ends! His mercies never cease. Great is his faithfulness; his mercies begin afresh each morning. Lamentations‬ ‭3‬:‭22-23‬ NLT

Today is a new day, every morning we get a fresh start. It may seem like the trials will never end but God is with us and his love and mercy never stop. Yesterday is gone today is a new. Today I pray that we would give God thanks for everyday and know that he will see us through…….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

Hebrews‬ ‭6:19‬

“This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and steadfast and one which enters within the veil,” ‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭6:19‬ ‭NASB‬‬

The world tells us that hope is a waste of time!!!! As a believer that is crazy!!!! Remember when you were a kid and hope was all you had for that new baseball glove or pair of new shoes? That is the same hope we should have today in our promise from Gods word. Today’s prayer is that we would never lose hope in anything!!! With hope and prayer all things are possible……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

IF YOU LEARN TO TRUST GOD—really trust GOD—with your whole being, then nothing can separate you from GOD’S Peace. – GENESIS 50 : 20, PSALM 23 : 4

https://youtu.be/bFSGsVJZDlE

IF YOU LEARN TO TRUST with your whole being, then nothing can separate you from GOD'S Peace. (https://youtu.be/bFSGsVJZDlE)

“IF YOU LEARN TO TRUST GOD—really trust GOD—with your whole being, then nothing can separate you from GOD’S Peace. Everything you endure can be put to good use by allowing it to train you in trusting GOD. This is how you foil the works of evil, growing in grace through the very adversity that was meant to harm you. Joseph was a prime example of this divine reversal, declaring to his brothers: “You meant evil against me, but God meant it for good.” Do not fear what this day, or any day, may bring your way. Concentrate on trusting GOD and on doing what needs to be done. Relax in The LORD’S sovereignty, remembering that HE goes before you, as well as with you, into each day. Fear no evil, for GOD can bring good out of every situation you will ever encounter.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

But as for you, you meant evil against me; but God meant it for good, in order to bring it about as it is this day, to save many people alive. GENESIS 50 : 20 (NKJV)

Even 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 : 4

Prayer: Lord thank you for using everything I endure for good. Help me to trust you more today, not fearing what’s up ahead because you go before me and are with me every step of the way. I don’t want to hold onto anything tighter than I hold onto you. I trust you when you give and when you take away. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

‭‭Romans‬ ‭15:5

“May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you the same attitude of mind toward each other that Christ Jesus had,” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭15:5‬ ‭

Day to day life can be tough, situations at home, work, social events, etc. being a Christian is to set the example of Jesus and eventually others will want what you have, ” the mind of Jesus” Today’s prayer is that we all would pray for patience, wisdom, kindness, and to be the example in all settings………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

DO NOT SEARCH FOR SECURITY in the world you inhabit. – ISAIAH 26 : 3, 2 CORINTHIANS 4 : 18

https://youtu.be/2LTxTOu8134

DO NOT SEARCH FOR SECURITY in the world you inhabit. (https://youtu.be/2LTxTOu8134)

“DO NOT SEARCH FOR SECURITY in the world you inhabit. You tend to make mental checklists of things you need to do in order to gain control of your life. If only you could check everything off your list, you could relax and be at peace. But the more you work to accomplish that goal, the more things crop up on your list. The harder you try, the more frustrated you become. There is a better way to find security in this life. Instead of scrutinizing your checklist, focus your attention on GOD’S Presence with you. This continual contact with The LORD will keep you in HIS Peace. Moreover, GOD will help you sort out what is important and what is not, what needs to be done now and what does not. Fix your eyes not on what is seen (your circumstances), but on what is unseen (GOD’S Presence).” – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

You will keep him in perfect peace, Whose mind is stayed on You, Because he trusts in You. ISAIAH 26 : 3 (NKJV)

So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. 2 CORINTHIANS 4 : 18

Prayer: Lord instead of trying to check everything off my to do list today I give my day to you. Help me prioritize what is important and what is not, what needs to be done today and what can wait. Thank you for caring about every little detail of my life. You are my good good Father. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Matthew 27:50-51

My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Why are you so far from saving me, from the words of my groaning? Psalms 22:1

They gave me poison for food,and for my thirst they gave me sour wine to drink. Psalms 69:21

But the others said, Wait! Let us see whether Elijah will come to save Him from death. And Jesus cried again with a loud voice and gave up His spirit. And at once the curtain of the sanctuary of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom; the earth shook and the rocks were split.

And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani? that is, My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? And some of the bystanders, hearing it, said, This man is calling Elijah. And one of them at once ran and took a sponge, filled it with sour wine, and put it on a reed and gave it to him to drink. But the others said, Wait, let us see whether Elijah will come to save him. And Jesus cried out again with a loud voice and yielded up his spirit. Matthew 27:46-52

When Jesus hung on the cross he finished all!!!!! He felt forsaken to have been the perfect man and to go through all he did. When it says the” veil was torn “in the Old Testament the priest could not approach God and in death Jesus made a way for us to boldly approach God. As we go through this day meditate on all that was given for us on the Cross….. Forgiveness , redemption , mercy, grace, all things have been given to us in Christ Jesus…..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 all that you need. – PSALM 95 : 2, 1 JOHN 1 : 5

https://youtu.be/ikOvSQYZmcM

COME TO GOD for all that you need. (https://youtu.be/ikOvSQYZmcM)

“COME TO GOD for all that you need. Come into GOD’S Presence with thanksgiving, for thankfulness opens the door to The LORD’S treasures. When you are thankful, you affirm the central truth that The LORD is Good. GOD is Light, in whom there is no darkness at all. The assurance that GOD is entirely Good meets your basic need for security. Your life is not subject to the whims of a sin-stained deity. Relax in the knowledge that the One who controls your life is totally trustworthy. Come to GOD with confident expectation. There is nothing you need that The LORD cannot provide.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

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

This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all. 1 JOHN 1 : 5

Prayer: God I want to come to you for all that I need with thanks and praise. No matter what happens in my life I know you are always good and you will work everything together for the good of those who love you. I trust you Lord. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

MEET GOD IN MORNING STILLNESS, while the earth is fresh with the dew of GOD’S Presence. – PSALM 29 : 2, 1 PETER 1 : 8,

https://youtu.be/MUfFJQm3rI4

MEET GOD IN MORNING STILLNESS, while the earth is fresh with the dew of GOD'S Presence. (https://youtu.be/MUfFJQm3rI4)

“MEET GOD IN MORNING STILLNESS, while the earth is fresh with the dew of GOD’S Presence. Worship GOD in the beauty of holiness. Sing love songs to The LORD’S holy Name. As you give yourself to GOD, His Holy Spirit swells within you till you are flooded with divine Presence. The world’s way of pursuing riches is grasping and hoarding. You attain GOD’S riches by letting go and giving. The more you give yourself to The LORD and HIS ways, the more GOD fills you with inexpressible, heavenly Joy.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

Give unto the LORD the glory due to His name; Worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness. PSALM 29 : 2 (NKJV)

Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy. 1 PETER 1 : 8

Prayer: Lord meet me in the morning stillness. Holy Spirit fill me until overflowing with your divine presence. Help me to surrender all to you, your will, your way. Your plan is far better than anything I could ever imagine. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
