GOD IS LEADING YOU, STEP BY STEP, through your life. – DEUTERONOMY 29 : 29, PSALM 32 : 8

https://youtu.be/aTti5zpcJnA

“GOD IS LEADING YOU, STEP BY STEP, through your life. Hold GOD’S hand in trusting dependence, letting HIM guide you through this day. Your future looks uncertain and feels flimsy—even precarious. That is how it should be. Secret things belong to the Lord, and future things are secret things. When you try to figure out the future, you are grasping at things that are The LORD’S. This, like all forms of worry, is an act of rebellion: doubting GOD’S promises to care for you. Whenever you find yourself worrying about the future, repent and return to GOD. GOD will show you the next step forward, and the one after that, and the one after that. Relax and enjoy the journey in The LORD’S Presence, trusting GOD to open up the way before you as you go.”

The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but the things revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may follow all the words of this law. DEUTERONOMY 29 : 29

I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you and watch over you. PSALM 32 : 8

Prayer: Lord, when I try to figure out the future, gently remind me that it is yours to know and for me to trust. When the time is right, you will reveal one step at a time. I trust you have a good plan for my future because you are a good God. Show me the next step you want me to take, Lord. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

1 John‬ ‭2:9-11‬

“If anyone claims, “I am living in the light,” but hates a fellow believer, that person is still living in darkness. Anyone who loves a fellow believer is living in the light and does not cause others to stumble. But anyone who hates a fellow believer is still living and walking in darkness. Such a person does not know the way to go, having been blinded by the darkness.” 1 John‬ ‭2:9-11‬ ‭NLT‬‬

I see so much Fire and Brimstone today, scaring someone to the Lord will do nothing but turn them away!!!! As Christians we are to be the example of Christ not the exact opposite!!! Being loving and kind to all we come across, lending a helping hand to those in need, reserving judgement for God not being the one to pass it. Grace is a wonderful gift and we need to show people how to live a grace filled life. Grace is not a license to sin it is the power to overcome sin!!!! Today’s prayer is that we would shed the condemnation and quit judging the church!!! Correction to a brother or sister is biblical but playing judge is NOT…….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

Philippians‬ ‭4‬:‭19

And this same God who takes care of me will supply all your needs from his glorious riches, which have been given to us in Christ Jesus. ‭Philippians‬ ‭4‬:‭19‬ NLT

Are you hoping for something, someone, change for the better? This scripture talks about God supplying all of our needs, not some ALL!!! We may be waiting for something big but take a look at your life and you probably are blessed beyond your belief, I know I am. Today I pray that we would realize what God provides for us, all that we have, and most important he has given us life through Jesus our biggest gift…..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

Psalms‬ ‭139‬:‭14-17

Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex! Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it. You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion, as I was woven together in the dark of the womb. You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed. How precious are your thoughts about me, O God. They cannot be numbered! ‭Psalms‬ ‭139‬:‭14-17‬ NLT

Do you ever struggle in knowing your purpose? What it is you’re supposed to be doing in this life? Well this Psalm tells us that God knew every stretch of road on our highway of life. Today I pray that we all would know that God is in control, that he has a plan for all of us since before we were born, although we may not understand the bumps in our road, God does and he has the strength to move them……. Trust in God and 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

BE STILL IN THE LIGHT OF GOD’S Presence, while GOD communicates Love to you. – 1 CORINTHIANS 13 : 12, EPHESIANS 3 : 16 – 19

https://youtu.be/7DPIZPh77kE

“BE STILL IN THE LIGHT OF GOD’S Presence, while GOD communicates Love to you. There is no force in the universe as powerful as GOD’S Love. You are constantly aware of limitations: your own and others’. But there is no limit to GOD’S Love; it fills all of space, time, and eternity. Now you see through a glass, darkly, but someday you will see The LORD face to Face. Then you will be able to experience fully how wide and long and high and deep is CHRIST’S Love for you. If you were to experience that now, you would be overwhelmed to the point of feeling crushed. But you have an eternity ahead of you, absolutely guaranteed, during which you can enjoy GOD’S Presence in unrestricted ecstasy. For now, the knowledge of GOD’S loving Presence is sufficient to carry you through each day.”

For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. 1 CORINTHIANS 13 : 12 (KJV)

I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. EPHESIANS 3 : 16 – 19

Prayer: Lord help me to make time each day to be still in your presence, so you can communicate your love and your presence to me. Show me a little more how wide and long and high and deep Christ’s love is for me so that I can be filled and spill over your love to others. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

2 Timothy‬ ‭2:3-7‬

“Endure suffering along with me, as a good soldier of Christ Jesus. Soldiers don’t get tied up in the affairs of civilian life, for then they cannot please the officer who enlisted them. And athletes cannot win the prize unless they follow the rules. And hardworking farmers should be the first to enjoy the fruit of their labor. Think about what I am saying. The Lord will help you understand all these things.” ‭‭2 Timothy‬ ‭2:3-7‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Paul speaks of relying on Jesus for strength and knowledge. Are you trying to follow the rules of the world standard or the knowledgeable ways of the Lord to win your race? Today’s prayer is that we would all pray for the knowledge to run our race in a way that will please 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

BE ON GUARD against the pit of self-pity. – PSALM 89 : 15 – 16, HEBREWS 12 : 1 – 2

https://youtu.be/feEVRWiCTpY

“BE ON GUARD against the pit of self-pity. When you are weary or unwell, this demonic trap is the greatest danger you face. Don’t even go near the edge of the pit. Its edges crumble easily, and before you know it, you are on the way down. It is ever so much harder to get out of the pit than to keep a safe distance from it. That is why GOD tells you to be on guard. There are several ways to protect yourself from self-pity. When you are occupied with praising and thanking GOD, it is impossible to feel sorry for yourself. Also, the closer you live to The LORD, the more distance there is between you and the pit. Live in the Light of GOD’S Presence by fixing your eyes on HIM. Then you will be able to run with endurance the race that is set before you, without stumbling or falling.”

Blessed are those who have learned to acclaim you, who walk in the light of your presence, O LORD. In Your name they rejoice all day long, And in Your righteousness they are exalted. PSALM 89 : 15 – 16

Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.. HEBREWS 12 : 1 – 2 (NKJV)

Prayer: God help me to be on guard against the pit of self-pity by praising and thanking you for all you have done, are currently doing, and will do in the future for me. Help me to stay close to you today, to talk with you often. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Hebrews‬ ‭13:2-3‬

“Don’t forget to show hospitality to strangers, for some who have done this have entertained angels without realizing it! Remember those in prison, as if you were there yourself. Remember also those being mistreated, as if you felt their pain in your own bodies.” Hebrews‬ ‭13:2-3‬ ‭

It’s so easy to get caught up in the rat race of life that we overlook the God moments that he sets in front of our faces daily. It’s so easy to judge those on the streets and say ” they just want to go buy a drink” but is that for us to judge? What if God passed that same judgement on us? God loved us at our lowest moments in life! Don’t you think we should do the same? Today’s prayer is that we would slow down and show the same love that God showed us, take every opportunity to witness the love of Jesus, preach to someone, not at them……..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 NEED GOD EVERY MOMENT. – 1 THESSALONIANS 5 : 17, JOHN 16 : 24

https://youtu.be/DB3lfcemHgI

“YOU NEED GOD EVERY MOMENT. Your awareness of your constant need for GOD is your greatest strength. Your neediness, properly handled, is a link to GOD’S Presence. However, there are pitfalls that you must be on guard against: self-pity, self-preoccupation, giving up. Your inadequacy presents you with a continual choice—deep dependence on The LORD, or despair. The emptiness you feel within will be filled either with problems or with GOD’S Presence. Make The LORD central in your consciousness by praying continually: simple, short prayers flowing out of the present moment. Use The LORD’S Name liberally, to remind you of HIS Presence. Keep on asking and you will receive, so that your gladness may be full and complete.”

Pray continually. 1 THESSALONIANS 5 : 17

Until now you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full.” JOHN 16 : 24

Prayer: Lord help me to have a deep dependence on you this week and to talk with you more throughout the day. To bring you into every detail of my day. You are my best friend and the great I Am. There is no one I’d rather do life with. Thank you Jesus for making that possible. In your precious name I pray. Amen.

My prayer today is that you would read your Bible (all of it) and understand by the spirit what God is speaking to us, there is a powerful message in every word for each of us…… Be Blessed
