GOD IS EVER SO NEAR YOU, hovering over your shoulder, reading every thought. – MATTHEW 1 : 23, PSALM 37 : 4

GOD IS EVER SO NEAR YOU, hovering over your shoulder, reading every thought. (https://youtu.be/FjEX3q0NodY)

“GOD IS EVER SO NEAR YOU, hovering over your shoulder, reading every thought. People think that thoughts are fleeting and worthless, but yours are precious to GOD. GOD smiles when you think lovingly of HIM. GOD’S Holy Spirit, who lives within you, helps you to think HIS thoughts. As your thinking goes, so goes your entire being. Let GOD be your positive Focus. When you look to GOD, knowing The LORD as GOD with you, you experience Joy. This is according to GOD’S ancient design, when HE first crafted man. Modern man seeks his positive focus elsewhere: in sports, sensations, acquiring new possessions. Advertising capitalizes on the longing of people for a positive focus in their lives. GOD planted that longing in human souls, knowing that only HE could fully satisfy it. Delight yourself in GOD; let The LORD become the Desire of your heart.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

“The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel”—which means, “God with us.” MATTHEW 1 : 23

Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart. PSALM 37 : 4

Prayer: God you planted this longing in my soul for something more. And you are the only one who can satisfy and fill that deep longing. Nothing else will do, I just want you Jesus. Help me to spend ample time with you. In your name I pray. Amen.

‭Isaiah‬ ‭43‬:‭18-19‬

“Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland. ‭Isaiah‬ ‭43‬:‭18-19‬ NIV

Sometimes it hard to get over the past, someone wronged you, you got so far into debt you didn’t see a way out. The enemy wants you to dwell on those situations so you will look through Gods blessings that are all around you. Today’s prayer is that we would all view the past as a stepping stone in the road that leads us straight to Gods blessings, if you’re still battling it’s time to look to the blessings that are there……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

‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭1:5-7

“he predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will— to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves. In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace” ‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭1:5-7‬ ‭NIV‬‬

To truly understand what Jesus did for us is mind blowing! If God had not sent Jesus to the cross for all of us we would have never had the chance to get into right standing with God. When God sees us he sees us through Jesus, so therefore he sees perfection. Today I pray that we would never forget the grace that has been given to us freely and undeserved. Praise Jesus in all things and be thankful for all you have, the alternative would have been brutal……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

GOD’S PEACE is like a shaft of golden Light shining on you continuously. – JOHN 1 : 4 – 5, HEBREWS 12 : 3

GOD'S PEACE is like a shaft of golden Light shining on you continuously. (https://youtu.be/9Y_RH-adzjA)

“GOD’S PEACE is like a shaft of golden Light shining on you continuously. During days of bright sunshine, it may blend in with your surroundings. On darker days, GOD’S Peace stands out in sharp contrast to your circumstances. See times of darkness as opportunities for GOD’S Light to shine in transcendent splendor. GOD is training you to practice Peace that overpowers darkness. Collaborate with GOD in this training. Do not grow weary and lose heart.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

In him was life, and the life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. JOHN 1 : 4 – 5

Consider him who endured such opposition from sinful men, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart. HEBREWS 12 : 3

Prayer: Lord show me how to have peace that overpowers any darkness. And may your peace stand out in me so that when others see me they see you. In Jesus’ precious name. Amen.

“O our God, we thank you and praise your glorious name! ‭1 Chronicles‬ ‭29‬:‭13‬ NLT

Short and sweet, are we thanking God and praising God in all situations? The good and the bad? For the good is favor and the bad is a test for your Testimony. Today’s prayer is that we all thank God in all situations, thank him for all he has and will…….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’S FACE more and more. – PSALM 27 : 8, 2 CORINTHIANS 4 : 7, ISAIAH 12 : 2

SEEK GOD'S FACE more and more. (https://youtu.be/_CVDtZGXRkk)

“SEEK GOD’S FACE more and more. You are really just beginning your journey of intimacy with GOD. It is not an easy road, but it is a delightful and privileged way: a treasure hunt. The LORD is the Treasure, and the Glory of The LORD’S Presence glistens and shimmers along the way. Hardships are part of the journey too. GOD metes them out ever so carefully, in just the right dosage, with a tenderness you can hardly imagine. Do not recoil from afflictions, since they are among GOD’S most favored gifts. Trust The LORD and don’t be afraid, for The LORD is your Strength and Song.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

My heart says of you, “Seek his face!” Your face, LORD, I will seek. PSALM 27 : 8

But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. 2 CORINTHIANS 4 : 7

“Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. The LORD, the LORD, is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation.” ISAIAH 12 : 2

Prayer: Lord I know I am just beginning this journey of intimacy with you. It is a treasure hunt and you are the treasure. Lord you are my rock, my fortress in times of trouble. You are my strength when I am weak. Fill me with your love today so I can share your love with others. In Jesus’ precious name. Amen.

“This is all the more urgent, for you know how late it is; time is running out. Wake up, for our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭13:11‬ ‭NLT‬‬

When you first became a Christian remember that feeling of satisfaction you had? That completeness that you felt inside? The feeling that Jesus was right there with you every step of the way? Do you still feel that feeling? If you don’t it’s time to wake up and realize that nothing has changed! You have changed, the world events have changed, but Jesus never changes!!! He is the same yesterday and today and tomorrow. Today’s prayer is that we would all re embrace that feeling we first had as believers, Jesus is there and he will always be there through any trial or tribulation, wake up that lion that lives on your inside…….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

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

https://youtu.be/DhcVXqaBjQo

TRUST GOD ENOUGH to spend ample time with HIM, pushing back the demands of the day. (https://youtu.be/DhcVXqaBjQo)

“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 GOD in rich communion. Also, as you align yourself with The LORD’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.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

“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: 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.

“In the beginning the Word already existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God.” ‭‭ ‭‭John‬ ‭1:1‬ ‭

The same word is the only word today, the word of God has been compromised in my opinion! There are organizations teaching different from what the Bible states. Today’s prayer is that you would get into a Church that teaches the whole word of God not just pieces, and if it doesn’t line up with the Bible ” run forest run”…….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

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

https://youtu.be/skW4d0HHM38

GOD IS ABOVE ALL THINGS: your problems, your pain, and the events in this ever-changing world. (https://youtu.be/skW4d0HHM38)

“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 GOD in heavenly realms. This is the way of Peace, living in the Light of The LORD’S Presence. GOD 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. Christ knows your weakness, and The LORD meet you in that very place.” para-phrased – ” Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

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: Lord when I’m in your presence you help me rise above my circumstances and rest with you in Heavenly realms. Oh what a peaceful place that is. I want to go there often today Lord. Help me do so. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
