1 Peter‬ ‭5‬ :‭ 6

So humble yourselves under the mighty power of God, and at the right time he will lift you up in honor. 1 Peter‬ ‭5‬ :‭ 6‬ NLT

Are you thinking you deserve something? That you should have got the promotion? How come things are always so difficult? Are you humble? Or think things are owed to you? GOD has a time for everything and by humbling yourself and realizing that GOD has something better in store will bring a whole new focus on life. Today I pray that we would all humble ourselves before Almighty GOD and know that it may look difficult at the moment, but there are great things for the humble …… Be Blessed, Be Humble

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 TAKING CARE OF YOU. | PROVERBS 3 : 5, DEUTERONOMY 33 : 27, JEREMIAH 29 : 13 – 14

https://youtu.be/Ug4oNUfqh7Y

“GOD IS TAKING CARE OF YOU. Trust GOD at all times. Trust GOD in all circumstances. Trust GOD with all your heart. When you are weary and everything seems to be going wrong, you can still utter these four words: “I trust You, JESUS CHRIST.” By doing so, you release matters into The LORD’S control, and you fall back into the security of HIS everlasting arms. Before you arise from your bed in the morning, The LORD has already arranged the events of your day. Every day provides many opportunities for you to learn GOD’S ways and grow closer to HIM. Signs of The LORD’S Presence brighten even the dullest day when you have eyes that really see. Search for GOD as for hidden treasure. The LORD will be found by you.”

Scripture

Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. PROVERBS 3 : 5 

The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms. He will drive out your enemy before you, saying, “Destroy him!” DEUTERONOMY 33 : 27 

“You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you,” declares the LORD, “and will bring you back from captivity. I will gather you from all the nations and places where I have banished you,” declares the LORD, “and will bring you back to the place from which I carried you into exile.” JEREMIAH 29 : 13 – 14

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, help me trust You in every situation, even when I feel tired or things aren’t going right. Teach me to release everything into Your hands and rest in Your care. Open my eyes to see You at work throughout my day. Amen.

Ephesians‬ ‭5‬ :‭ 1 – 2‬

Imitate God, therefore, in everything you do, because you are his dear children. Live a life filled with love, following the example of Christ. He loved us and offered himself as a sacrifice for us, a pleasing aroma to God.  Ephesians‬ ‭5‬ :‭ 1 – 2‬ NLT

Who are you trying to imitate? Are you trying to live your life as the example of JESUS CHRIST or someone else? We know that JESUS CHRIST was the only perfect example but HIS instructions are full of forgiveness and grace. GOD knew we could never be perfect in the natural so GOD sent HIS perfect SON to atone for us. Today I pray that we would all try to follow the example that JESUS CHRIST gave us and watch our lives transform …… 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 GOD’S PRESENCE, even though countless tasks clamor for your attention. | ROMANS 12 : 2, REVELATION 2 : 4, COLOSSIANS 1 : 27

https://youtu.be/PBBRstWNEyE

“BE STILL IN GOD’S PRESENCE, even though countless tasks clamor for your attention. Nothing is as important as spending time with GOD. While you wait in GOD’S Presence, GOD does HIS best work within you: transforming you by the renewing of your mind. If you skimp on this time with The LORD, you may plunge headlong into the wrong activities, missing the richness of what GOD has planned for you. Do not seek GOD primarily for what HE can give you. Remember that GOD, the Giver, is infinitely greater than any gift HE might impart to you. Though The LORD delights in blessing HIS children, The LORD is deeply grieved when HIS blessings become idols in their hearts. Anything can be an idol if it distracts you from GOD as your First Love. When The LORD is the ultimate Desire of your heart, you are safe from the danger of idolatry. As you wait in GOD’S Presence, enjoy the greatest gift of all: JESUS CHRIST in you, the hope of Glory!”

Scripture

Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. ROMANS 12 : 2 

Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken your first love. REVELATION 2 : 4 

To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. COLOSSIANS 1 : 27

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, help me to be still in Your Presence, setting aside the distractions that clamor for my attention. Renew my mind as I sit with You, teaching me to value the Giver above the gift. May You always be my first Love and the ultimate desire of my heart. Amen.

Mark‬ ‭12‬ :‭ 30 – 31

Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no commandment greater than these.” Mark‬ ‭12‬ :‭ 30 – 31‬ NIV

To love The LORD is easy when you understand HIS unconditional love HE has for us, now to love your neighbor that can be a tough one sometimes. When we truly understand the sacrifice JESUS CHRIST  gave at The Cross loving ALL becomes easy. Today I pray that we all would display the love of The LORD and make known to all the ultimate love that JESUS CHRIST poured out on The Cross …… 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

Daniel‬ ‭1 ‬:‭ 8

But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s delicacies, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore he requested of the chief of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself. ‭Daniel‬ ‭1 ‬:‭ 8‬ NKJV

Are you putting your walk with JESUS CHRIST to the side to please others? Daniel would not sacrifice his faith to please the King and GOD’S favor was placed upon him. In most social settings it’s hard not to join the crowd and “Fit In” but just as Daniel did so can we. Today I pray that our faith would be so bold that no one would even consider putting us in the situation that the choice would have to be made ……. 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 ‭3‬ :‭ 12

Because of Christ and our faith in him, we can now come boldly and confidently into God’s presence. ‭Ephesians‬ ‭3‬ :‭ 12‬ NLT

Do you ever feel that you have no one to talk to? No one to take your concerns to? When JESUS CHRIST died on The Cross HE made the way clear for direct communication with GOD. Today I pray that we all would be in direct communication with GOD in all areas, that we would lay our problems down and hand them over to The LORD ….. 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

WAITING ON GOD means directing your attention to GOD in hopeful anticipation of what HE will do. | LAMENTATIONS 3 : 24 – 26, ISAIAH 40 : 31, PSALM 16 : 11

https://youtu.be/Zmeiv1gICqs

“WAITING ON GOD means directing your attention to GOD in hopeful anticipation of what HE will do. It entails trusting THE LORD with every fiber of your being, instead of trying to figure things out yourself. Waiting on GOD is the way HE designed you to live: all day, every day. GOD created you to stay conscious of HIM as you go about your daily duties. The LORD has promised many blessings to those who wait on HIM : renewed strength, living above one’s circumstances, resurgence of hope, awareness of HIS continual Presence. Waiting on GOD enables you to glorify HIM by living in deep dependence on HIM, ready to do GOD’S will. It also helps you to enjoy The LORD ; in GOD’S Presence is fullness of Joy.” 

Scripture

I say to myself, “The LORD is my portion; therefore I will wait for him.” The LORD is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him; it is good to wait quietly for the salvation of the LORD. LAMENTATIONS 3 : 24 – 26 

But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. ISAIAH 40 : 31 

You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore. PSALM 16 : 11 (NKJV)

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, help me to trust you with every fiber of my being and depend on you moment by moment. Teach me to stay conscious of Your Presence, surrendering my need to figure everything out and put my trust and hope in your  will and plan. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

 ‭‭1 Timothy‬ ‭1 : 19‬

“holding on to faith and a good conscience, which some have rejected and so have suffered shipwreck with regard to the faith.” ‭‭1 Timothy‬ ‭1 : 19‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Is your faith strong? Do you trust your 100% to GOD? I see so many Christians that let the world’s circumstances destroy their Faith in The LORD. The Bible tells us that GOD is there through ALL!  Not some! Today’s prayer is that we would ALWAYS trust in The LORD no matter what the circumstance is ……… 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

LET THANKFULNESS TEMPER ALL YOUR THOUGHTS. | 1 CORINTHIANS 10 : 10, HEBREWS 12 : 28 – 29

https://youtu.be/q_lCgwX1RCQ

“LET THANKFULNESS TEMPER ALL YOUR THOUGHTS. A thankful mind-set keeps you in touch with GOD. GOD hates it when HIS children grumble, casually despising HIS sovereignty. Thankfulness is a safeguard against this deadly sin. Furthermore, a grateful attitude becomes a grid through which you perceive life. Gratitude enables you to see the Light of GOD’S Presence shining on all your circumstances. Cultivate a thankful heart, for this glorifies GOD and fills you with Joy.”

Scripture

And do not grumble, as some of them did—and were killed by the destroying angel. 1 CORINTHIANS 10 : 10 

Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe, for our “God is a consuming fire.” HEBREWS 12 : 28 – 29

Prayer

Prayer: God help me to let thankfulness temper all my thoughts and let thankfulness be the grid through which I perceive life. Thank you for the breath in my lungs, a warm bed to sleep in, and a Heavenly Father who thought I was to die for. Amen.
