Jesus spoke to the people once more and said, “I am the light of the world. If you follow me, you won’t have to walk in darkness, because you will have the light that leads to life.” John 8:12 NLT
Jesus brought light into a darkened world, from the beginning God’s plan was to have a perfect life for mankind But that was lost in the garden when sin entered. Today Jesus has conquered that sin once and for all!!! As believers we have that eternal light, that eternal life. Today I pray that even in this darkened world that we would let our light shine knowing the eternal promise we have in Jesus Christ …..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
“ENTRUST YOUR LOVED ONES TO GOD; release them into The LORD’S protective care. They are much safer with GOD than in your clinging hands. If you let a loved one become an idol in your heart, you endanger that one—as well as yourself. Remember the extreme measures GOD used with Abraham and Isaac. GOD took Isaac to the very point of death to free Abraham from son-worship. Both Abraham and Isaac suffered terribly because of the father’s undisciplined emotions. GOD detests idolatry, even in the form of parental love. When you release loved ones to The LORD, you are free to cling to HIS hand. As you entrust others into GOD’S care, GOD is free to shower blessings on them. The LORD’S Presence will go with them wherever they go, and HE will give them rest. This same Presence stays with you, as you relax and place your trust in GOD. Watch to see what The LORD will do.”
Scripture
When they reached the place God had told him about, Abraham built an altar there and arranged the wood on it. He bound his son Isaac and laid him on the altar, on top of the wood. Then he reached out his hand and took the knife to slay his son. But the angel of the LORD called out to him from heaven, “Abraham! Abraham!” “Here I am,” he replied. “Do not lay a hand on the boy,” he said. “Do not do anything to him. Now I know that you fear God, because you have not withheld from me your son, your only son.” GENESIS 22 : 9 – 12
Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us. . . . EPHESIANS 3 : 20
The LORD replied, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.” EXODUS 33 : 14
Prayer
Prayer: Lord, I release my loved ones to you. You know the ones I tend to hold onto a bit too tight. They are safest in your capable hands, which frees my hand to cling to yours. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
“Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe.”” John 20:27 NIV
Do you know something is true but still have disbelief? Do you find yourself questioning God’s miracles even though you have seen them manifest before? I believe at some point it has happened to us all. In a fallen world the devil wants us to think that God is not alive and it’s all a fairy tale, but be assured “God is Alive” and he is more than ever showing his signs and miracles!!! Today’s prayer is that we stand on the truth!! God is there!! Always has been and always will be…..Be Blessed

“TRUST GOD, and don’t be afraid. GOD wants you to view trials as exercises designed to develop your trust-muscles. You live in the midst of fierce spiritual battles, and fear is one of Satan’s favorite weapons. When you start to feel afraid, affirm your trust in GOD. Speak out loud, if circumstances permit. Resist the devil in GOD’s Name, and he will slink away from you. Refresh yourself in The LORD’s holy Presence. Speak or sing praises to GOD, and HIS Face will shine radiantly upon you. Remember that there is no condemnation for those who belong to GOD. You have been judged NOT GUILTY for all eternity. Trust GOD, and don’t be afraid; for The LORD is your Strength, Song, and Salvation.”
Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. JAMES 4 : 7
Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit of life set me free from the law of sin and death. ROMANS 8 : 1 – 2
“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, help me to view trials as opportunities to develop my trust muscles in you. When I start to feel anxious or afraid, help me speak the name of Jesus and remember I am Heaven bound. Everything else is preparation for eternity. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
This is the day the LORD has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it. Psalms 118:24 NLT
Good morning, that is a standard greeting right? Well it is a good morning no matter what the situation is. Look around at all the great things there are, sometimes we have to look through the ugly to get to the beauty. Today’s prayer is that we look at all the great things God has done for us, not the one or two problems that may be present…….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
“WAIT WITH GOD FOR A WHILE. GOD has much to tell you. You are walking along the path The LORD has chosen for you. It is both a privileged and a perilous way: experiencing GOD’S glorious Presence and heralding that reality to others. Sometimes you feel presumptuous to be carrying out such an assignment. Do not worry about what other people think of you. The work GOD is doing in you is hidden at first. But eventually blossoms will burst forth, and abundant fruit will be borne. Stay on the path of Life with GOD. Trust The LORD wholeheartedly, letting GOD’S Holy Spirit fill you with Joy and Peace.”
Scripture
“O LORD, God of Israel, there is no God like you in heaven above or on earth below—you who keep your covenant of love with your servants who continue wholeheartedly in your way.” 1 KINGS 8 : 23
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. GALATIANS 5 : 22 – 23
Prayer
Prayer: God help me to stay on the path of life with you. To trust you wholeheartedly, letting your Spirit fill me with joy and peace as I rest in you. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
“Teach me to do your will, for you are my God. May your gracious Spirit lead me forward on a firm footing.” Psalms 143:10 NLT
Oh to live constantly in God’s will. What a life that would be, as for me I try to do everything I can to please God in all I do and the sad part is I fail daily!!!! God’s grace is there for us as we fail and miss the mark. It’s up to us to put forth the effort to miss the mark less and less. Today’s prayer is that we would strive to live in God’s perfect will and live a life led by the spirit of God for he is perfect……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
“Look, I will come as unexpectedly as a thief! Blessed are all who are watching for me, who keep their clothing ready so they will not have to walk around naked and ashamed.” Revelation 16:15 NLT
More than ever it’s time to take our faith serious! Not just going to church on Sunday, or having a Bible on the nightstand it’s time to take our relationship with Jesus to another level. Today I pray that with all the trouble going on in the world that we would 100% have our trust in 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
“No weapon formed against you shall prosper, And every tongue which rises against you in judgment You shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, And their righteousness is from Me,” Says the LORD.” Isaiah 54:17 NKJV
There are so many things that are weapons! The most powerful one is the tongue, people will say hurtful things, condemning things, that can do some severe damage. As a Christian we are to understand that we are under attack by the things of the world, but Jesus is right there with us. Today’s prayer is that we would never retaliate with actions, but retaliate with kindness knowing that God has our back……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
“EXPECT TO ENCOUNTER ADVERSITY in your life, remembering that you live in a deeply fallen world. Stop trying to find a way that circumvents difficulties. The main problem with an easy life is that it masks your need for GOD. When you became a Christian, GOD infused HIS very Life into you, empowering you to live on a supernatural plane by depending on HIM. Anticipate coming face to face with impossibilities: situations totally beyond your ability to handle. This awareness of your inadequacy is not something you should try to evade. It is precisely where The LORD wants you — the best place to encounter GOD in HIS Glory and Power. When you see armies of problems marching toward you, cry out to GOD! Allow GOD to fight for you. Watch The LORD working on your behalf, as you rest in the shadow of GOD’S Almighty Presence.” After this I heard what sounded like the roar of a great multitude in heaven shouting: “Hallelujah! Salvation and glory and power belong to our God, . . .” REVELATION 19 : 1 He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. PSALM 91 : 1 Prayer: God, thank you for allowing me to be in situations beyond my capabilities so I can rely on you to fill in the gaps and fight my battles for me. Over and over you prove yourself faithful and trustworthy. Thank you for being my Lord and Savior. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
