GOD IS LEADING YOU ALONG THE HIGH ROAD, but there are descents as well as ascents. – JOHN 21 : 19, 2 CORINTHIANS 4 : 17, HABAKKUK 3 : 19

GOD IS LEADING YOU ALONG THE HIGH ROAD, but there are descents as well as ascents. (https://youtu.be/OqBTAE_uvQ8)

“GOD IS LEADING YOU ALONG THE HIGH ROAD, but there are descents as well as ascents. In the distance you see snow-covered peaks glistening in brilliant sunlight. Your longing to reach those peaks is good, but you must not take shortcuts. Your assignment is to follow GOD, allowing The LORD to direct your path. Let the heights beckon you onward, but stay close to GOD. Learn to trust GOD when things go “wrong.” Disruptions to your routine highlight your dependence on The LORD. Trusting acceptance of trials brings blessings that far outweigh them all. Walk hand in hand with GOD through this day. HE has lovingly planned every inch of the way. Trust does not falter when the path becomes rocky and steep. Breathe deep breaths of GOD’S Presence, and hold tightly to The LORD’S hand. Together you and GOD can make it!” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

Jesus said this to indicate the kind of death by which Peter would glorify God. Then he said to him, “Follow me!” JOHN 21 : 19

For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. 2 CORINTHIANS 4 : 17

The Sovereign LORD is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a deer, he enables me to go on the heights. For the director of music. On my stringed instruments. HABAKKUK 3 : 19

Prayer: Lord help me to develop trusting acceptance of trials and learn to walk hand in hand with you through them. Knowing and trusting your plan and your process. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

1 Peter 1:18-21

knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, like silver or gold, from your aimless conduct received by tradition from your fathers, but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot. He indeed was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you who through Him believe in God, who raised Him from the dead and gave Him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God. 1 Peter 1:18-21 NKJV

Payment for things of the world are all temporary, you pay your mortgage and payment is required a month later, you pay your car payment and it’s again due next month. On that day at Calvary payment for our lives was given once and for all!!!!! Never again is payment needed, you could say Jesus has the title to our souls. Today realize the liberty we have in Jesus and praise his Holy name, all around us is temporal but heaven is eternal………….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

Genesis‬ ‭4:3-7

“And in the process of time it came to pass that Cain brought an offering of the fruit of the ground to the LORD. Abel also brought of the firstborn of his flock and of their fat. And the LORD respected Abel and his offering, but He did not respect Cain and his offering. And Cain was very angry, and his countenance fell. So the LORD said to Cain, “Why are you angry? And why has your countenance fallen? If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin lies at the door. And its desire is for you, but you should rule over it.”” ‭‭Genesis‬ ‭4:3-7‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

I believe this scripture is essential for all of us. Cain brought the least and Able brought the first, the best, the deserving of the Lord! Are you giving God your best or just the leftovers? Today’s prayers are that we would always give God our best, our 100% be faithful to God because he is always faithful to us…….. 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

Galatians‬ ‭5:1

“It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.” Galatians‬ ‭5:1‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Before we knew Jesus we were prisoners to the world, after Jesus we are set free from all the strongholds we once had. This scripture tells us to stand firm and know that we are free!!! Today’s prayer is that when we feel weak don’t turn away but instead seek the love of Jesus and he will always remind us of our freedom in him…….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 FACE IS SHINING UPON YOU, beaming out Peace that transcends understanding. – PHILIPPIANS 4 : 7, MATTHEW 14 : 30

https://youtu.be/Q7urepCzmhw

GOD'S FACE IS SHINING UPON YOU, beaming out Peace that transcends understanding. (https://youtu.be/Q7urepCzmhw)

“GOD’S FACE IS SHINING UPON YOU, beaming out Peace that transcends understanding. You are surrounded by a sea of problems, but you are face to Face with GOD, your Peace. As long as you focus on GOD, you are safe. If you gaze too long at the myriad problems around you, you will sink under the weight of your burdens. When you start to sink, simply call out “Help me, Jesus!” and CHRIST will lift you up. The closer you live to The LORD, the safer you are. Circumstances around you are undulating, and there are treacherous-looking waves in the distance. Fix your eyes on The LORD, the One who never changes. By the time those waves reach you, they will have shrunk to proportions of HIS design. The LORD is always beside you, helping you face today’s waves. The future is a phantom, seeking to spook you. Laugh at the future! Stay close to GOD.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. PHILIPPIANS 4 : 7

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!” MATTHEW 14 : 30

Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. HEBREWS 12 : 2

Prayer: Lord even when I’m surrounded by a sea of problems may I meet you in the inner room of my heart, where you always are, and where there is peace that surpasses all understanding. I meet you in my inner sanctuary Lord where I can quickly hide away with you, if even for one second, before returning to the world. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

Psalm‬ ‭90:12

“Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.” Psalm‬ ‭90:12‬ ‭NIV‬‬

We all have a day that we will meet the Lord, are you living life with a just get by attitude or are you living life to the fullest for God? Today’s prayer is that we would approach every day with thanks and with a heart to serve the Lord with all our heart……..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 GOD BLESS YOU with HIS grace and Peace. – 1 SAMUEL 16 : 7, ROMANS 8 : 38 – 39

https://youtu.be/YWPgmweQsO4

LET GOD BLESS YOU with HIS grace and Peace. (https://youtu.be/YWPgmweQsO4)

“LET GOD BLESS YOU with HIS grace and Peace. Open your heart and mind to receive all that GOD has for you. Do not be ashamed of your emptiness. Instead, view it as the optimal condition for being filled with The LORD’S Peace. It is easy to touch up your outward appearance, to look as if you have it all together. Your attempts to look good can fool most people. But GOD sees straight through you, into the depths of your being. There is no place for pretense in your relationship with The LORD. Rejoice in the relief of being fully understood. Talk with GOD about your struggles and feelings of inadequacy. Little by little, GOD will transform your weaknesses into strengths. Remember that your relationship with The LORD is saturated in grace. Therefore, nothing that you do or don’t do can separate you from The LORD’S Presence.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

But the LORD said to Samuel, “Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The LORD does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.” 1 SAMUEL 16 : 7

For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. ROMANS 8 : 38 – 39

Prayer: Lord saturate me with your grace and peace. I confess I often feel inadequate to do what you’ve called me to do. Little by little, transform my weakness into your strength, for your glory. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Romans‬ ‭13:11‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

And do this, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep; for now our salvation is nearer than when we first believed.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭13:11‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

If this scripture doesn’t hit home I don’t know which one will! The world is in such a broken place it’s clear the end is near …. Today’s prayer is that we would all continue to pray for the world to repent and turn back to God to heal our land……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

TRY TO VIEW EACH DAY as an adventure, carefully planned out by GOD, your Guide. – PSALM 118 : 24, 1 PETER 2 : 21

https://youtu.be/ATUGVWKwXEI

TRY TO VIEW EACH DAY as an adventure, carefully planned out by GOD, your Guide. (https://youtu.be/ATUGVWKwXEI)

“TRY TO VIEW EACH DAY as an adventure, carefully planned out by GOD, your Guide. Instead of staring into the day that is ahead of you, attempting to program it according to your will, be attentive to GOD and to all HE has prepared for you. Thank GOD for this day of life, recognizing that it is a precious, unrepeatable gift. Trust that GOD is with you each moment, whether you sense HIS Presence or not. A thankful, trusting attitude helps you to see events in your life from The LORD’S perspective. A life lived close to GOD will never be dull or predictable. Expect each day to contain surprises! Resist your tendency to search for the easiest route through the day. Be willing to follow wherever The LORD leads. No matter how steep or treacherous the path before you, the safest place to be is by GOD’S side.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it. PSALM 118 : 24

To this you were called, because Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in his steps. 1 PETER 2 : 21

Prayer: Lord help me to be attentive to you and all that you have prepared for me today. Thank you for another day of life, help me to use it wisely on the things that are most important to you. A life lived closed to you is always a fun adventure. Help me to follow wherever you lead me. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Romans‬ ‭13:8‬

“Owe no one anything except to love one another, for he who loves another has fulfilled the law.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭13:8‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

In life we are not promised tomorrow! A solid goal to have is too not over extend yourself (as we all have at some point) and too show Gods love to everyone! There is so much hate in the world it’s disheartening. Today’s prayer is we would love all and always try too be the lender not the borrower…… 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
