AS YOU TURN YOUR ATTENTION to GOD, feel the Light of HIS Presence shining upon you. – JOHN 17 : 20 – 23, PSALM 16 : 11

https://youtu.be/qmONABeC2cg

“AS YOU TURN YOUR ATTENTION to GOD, feel the Light of HIS Presence shining upon you. Open your mind and heart to receive GOD’S heavenly smile of approval. Let GOD’S gold-tinged Love wash over you and soak into the depths of your being. As you are increasingly filled with The LORD’S Being, you experience joyous union with GOD: GOD in you, and you in GOD. Your Joy-in-The LORD and HIS Joy-in-you become intertwined and inseparable. GOD suffuses your soul with Joy in HIS Presence; at GOD’S right hand there are pleasures forevermore.”

Scripture

“My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one: I in them and you in me. May they be brought to complete unity to let the world know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.” JOHN 17 : 20 – 23

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 thank you for showing me the path of life, the path full of joy and pleasure in You. Use me, with truth and love, to help the world to see more of You and less of me. In Jesus’ precious name. Amen.

Colossians‬ ‭1:13-14

“For He rescued us from the domain of darkness, and transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.” ‭‭Colossians‬ ‭1:13-14‬ ‭NASB‬‬

Remember when you didn’t belong to Jesus? Your life had a very trivial meaning. The life you lived in sin was destined for a eternity of doom!! But now you have a life of eternity in heaven. Today’s prayer is that we would always give thanks to God for the precious gift that he has given 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

‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭5:7-8

“Therefore do not be partners with them. For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light” ‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭5:7-8‬ ‭NIV‬‬

It’s so easy to get caught up in the ways of the world in a daily basis but that is not who we are. This scripture tells us that we once were doomed but now we are saved!!!! Let’s act like it.

Today’s prayer is that we would live a life that is pleasing to God and guard against our old ways……. 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

THE LORD IS YOUR LIVING GOD, far more abundantly alive than the most vivacious person you know. – 2 Corinthians 4:16-18, PSALM 139 : 14, COLOSSIANS 1 : 29, 1 JOHN 1 : 7

https://youtu.be/1A8xQpIEfcA

“THE LORD IS YOUR LIVING GOD, far more abundantly alive than the most vivacious person you know. The human body is wonderfully crafted, but gravity and the inevitable effects of aging weigh it down. Even the most superb athlete cannot maintain his fitness over many decades. Lasting abundant life can be found in GOD alone. Do not be anxious about the weakness of your body. Instead, view it as the prelude to GOD infusing energy into your being. As you identify more and more fully with GOD, HIS Life becomes increasingly intertwined with yours. Though the process of aging continues, inwardly you grow stronger with the passing years. Those who live close to GOD develop an inner aliveness that makes them seem youthful in spite of their years. Let GOD’S Life shine through you, as you walk in the Light with HIM.”

Scripture

Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. 2 Corinthians 4:16-18

I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. PSALM 139 : 14

To this end I labor, struggling with all his energy, which so powerfully works in me. COLOSSIANS 1 : 29

But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin. 1 JOHN 1 : 7

Prayer

Prayer: Lord thank you that even though my outward body is getting older each year, inwardly I am being renewed day by day as I spend time with you. The more I get to know you, the more fully alive I feel. Thank you Lord. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

‭‭1 John‬ ‭1:8

“If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us.” ‭‭1 John‬ ‭1:8‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Reality check WE ARE SINNERS!!!!! Even though we are saved we are sinners. To sin is to do something against God, gossip, anger, worry, curse, lie, etc. The cross redeemed us from damnation but we bring our own condemnation on by these actions !!!! Today’s prayer is that we would all look to the Cross anytime these temptations come upon us and thank Jesus for the freedom we truly have…….. Be Blessed and always look to the Cross

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

1 Thessalonians‬ ‭5‬:‭16-18

Always be joyful. Never stop praying. Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus. 1 Thessalonians‬ ‭5‬:‭16-18‬ NLT

To have a joyful heart is to know how blessed you are, to pray in all circumstances is to acknowledge that Jesus is in control, to give thanks in all circumstances is our reasonable service for what God has done for us… Today I pray that all would be joyful, thankful, and pray through all situations……Be Blessed

Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed 2 Corinthians 5:17

COME TO GOD with your defenses down, ready to be blessed and filled with GOD’S Presence. – 1 JOHN 1 : 5 – 7, EXODUS 33 : 14, PHILIPPIANS 4 : 8 – 9

https://youtu.be/Tg9lP53tc6M

“COME TO GOD with your defenses down, ready to be blessed and filled with GOD’S Presence. Relax, and feel the relief of being totally open and authentic with GOD. You have nothing to hide and nothing to disclose, because The LORD knows everything about you already. You can have no other relationship like this one. Take time to savor its richness, basking in The LORD’S golden Light. One of the worst consequences of the Fall is the elaborate barriers people erect between themselves and others. Facades abound in the world, even in The LORD’S Body, the church. Sometimes, church is the last place where people feel free to be themselves. They cover up with Sunday clothes and Sunday smiles. They feel relief when they leave because of the strain of false fellowship. The best antidote to this artificial atmosphere is practicing GOD’S Presence at church. Let your primary focus be communing with GOD, worshiping HIM, glorifying HIM. Then you will be able to smile at others with GOD’S Joy and love them with HIS Love.”

Scripture

This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all. If we claim to have fellowship with him yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live by the truth. But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin. 1 JOHN 1 : 5 – 7

The LORD replied, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.” EXODUS 33 : 14

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable— if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you. PHILIPPIANS 4 : 8 – 9

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, help me to practice your presence – making my primary focus communing with you, worshiping you, and glorifying you. Then I will be able to smile and love others with your joy and your peace. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Colossians‬ ‭3‬:‭17‬

And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him. ‭Colossians‬ ‭3‬:‭17‬ NIV

This scripture says “whatever you do” in today’s society it is expected to take credit in all you do, being humble and giving thanks is viewed as weak. People today are so self consumed it’s rare to get a thank you, today’s prayer is that we would give thanks and praise to God for all we do, because all things are because of him and through him…… Be Blessed and say thank you

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

GO GENTLY THROUGH THIS DAY, keeping your eyes on GOD. – JOHN 10 : 14 – 15, ISAIAH 26 : 7

https://youtu.be/NGplCjO9WLw

“GO GENTLY THROUGH THIS DAY, keeping your eyes on GOD. GOD will open up the way before you, as you take steps of trust along your path. Sometimes the way before you appears to be blocked. If you focus on the obstacle or search for a way around it, you will probably go off course. Instead, focus on GOD, the Shepherd who is leading you along your life-journey. Before you know it, the “obstacle” will be behind you and you will hardly know how you passed through it. That is the secret of success in The LORD’S kingdom. Although you remain aware of the visible world around you, your primary awareness is of The LORD. When the road before you looks rocky, you can trust GOD to get you through that rough patch. GOD’S Presence enables you to face each day with confidence.”

Scripture

“I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me— just as the Father knows me and I know the Father—and I lay down my life for the sheep.” JOHN 10 : 14 – 15

The path of the righteous is level; O upright One, you make the way of the righteous smooth. ISAIAH 26 : 7

Prayer

Prayer: God thank you that no matter what I face, when I keep my eyes fixed on you, before I know it, the obstacle that once looked so insurmountable is behind me, and I hardly know how I passed through it. Thank you for your goodness Lord. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Galatians‬ ‭5:13‬

“For you, brethren, have been called to liberty; only do not use liberty as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.” ‭‭Galatians‬ ‭5:13‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

The definition of Liberty is “Freedom”. This scripture speaks of freedom and says do not use it as a free pass to sin. Grace brings freedom by the Cross, and all things are made new by Jesus Christ. Today’s prayer is we would all embrace our freedom in Christ and strive to be more like him in every way. I pray we do not use our freedom to satisfy ourselves, but to do a good work in Jesus name…….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
