“I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day—and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing.” 2 Timothy 4:7-8 NIV
All that we do in life should be unto the Lord and not to ourselves. I believe that God wants us to live a joyful and prosperous life, but giving all the glory to him. Today’s prayer is that we would all do everything unto the Lord so he receives all the glory and we receive the crowns……..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 IS PERPETUALLY WITH YOU, taking care of you. That is the most important fact of your existence. GOD is not limited by time or space; GOD’S Presence with you is a forever-promise. You need not fear the future, for GOD is already there. When you make that quantum leap into eternity, you will find The LORD awaiting you in heaven. Your future is in GOD’S hands; The LORD releases it to you day by day, moment by moment. Therefore, do not worry about tomorrow. GOD wants you to live this day abundantly, seeing all there is to see, doing all there is to do. Don’t be distracted by future concerns. Leave them to GOD! Each day of life is a glorious gift, but so few people know how to live within the confines of today. Much of their energy for abundant living spills over the timeline into tomorrow’s worries or past regrets. Their remaining energy is sufficient only for limping through the day, not for living it to the full. GOD is training you to keep your focus on HIS Presence in the present. This is how to receive abundant Life, which flows freely from GOD’S throne of grace.”
Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. MATTHEW 6 : 34
“The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” JOHN 10 : 10
Now listen, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money.” Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. Instead, you ought to say, “If it is the Lord’s will, we will live and do this or that.” JAMES 4 : 13 – 15
Prayer: Lord help me to live this day abundantly, looking for your blessings throughout the day like finding hidden treasure. Help me to live in the present and not worry about the past or the future, and leave them in your capable hands. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
“Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. Matthew 7:13-14 NIV
There are so many that have chosen the broad gate, in their mind it is easier living a life of quiet freedom, no rules, being their own person. Jesus speaks of that road leading to destruction. Today’s prayer is that all would understand that the narrow road gives you the true meaning of freedom! The total lack of condemnation. The road to heaven isn’t the easy road, there will be tests and trials but we have the ultimate tour guide when we choose this path……..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 IS WITH YOU and all around you, encircling you in golden rays of Light. GOD always beholds you Face to face. Not one of your thoughts escapes GOD’S notice. Because The LORD is infinite, HE is able to love you as if you and GOD were the only ones in the universe. Walk with GOD in intimate Love-steps, but do not lose sight of The LORD’S Majesty. GOD desires to be your closest Friend, yet HE is also your sovereign Lord. GOD created your brain with the capacity to know HIM as Friend and Lord simultaneously. The human mind is the pinnacle of GOD’S creation, but so few use it for its primary purpose—-knowing The LORD. The LORD communicates continually through HIS Holy Spirit, HIS Word, and HIS creation. Only humans are capable of receiving GOD and responding to HIS Presence. You are indeed fearfully and wonderfully made!”
I sought the LORD, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears. Those who look to him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame. This poor man called, and the LORD heard him; he saved him out of all his troubles. The angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear him, and he delivers them. PSALM 34 : 4 – 7
We did not follow cleverly invented stories when we told you about the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty. For he received honor and glory from God the Father when the voice came to him from the Majestic Glory, saying, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.” 2 PETER 1 : 16 – 17
Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent. JOHN 17 : 3
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. PSALM 139 : 14
Prayer: God thank you for being my closest friend and my Lord. Help me to see you and hear you in your creation, your word, and your Spirit. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
Owe nothing to anyone—except for your obligation to love one another. If you love your neighbor, you will fulfill the requirements of God’s law.” Romans 13: 8 NLT
Paul had it so right!!! Owe no one and love all!!! Be humble and be a good steward!!! Today’s prayer is we that would all Love God! Be debt free! And love all as we love ourselves……. 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
“OPEN YOUR MIND AND HEART—your entire being—to receive GOD’S Love in full measure. So many of GOD’S children limp through their lives starving for Love, because they haven’t learned the art of receiving. This is essentially an act of faith: believing that GOD loves you with boundless, everlasting Love. The art of receiving is also a discipline: training your mind to trust GOD, coming close to GOD with confidence. Remember that the evil one is the father of lies. Learn to recognize his deceptive intrusions into your thoughts. One of his favorite deceptions is to undermine your confidence in GOD’S unconditional Love. Fight back against these lies! Do not let them go unchallenged. Resist the devil in GOD’S Name, and he will slink away from you. Draw near to GOD, and HIS Presence will envelop you in Love.”
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
Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has gone through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess. For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet was without sin. Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need. HEBREWS 4 : 14 – 16
You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desire. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies. JOHN 8 : 44
Prayer: Lord, train me to recognize when the enemy has taken a seat at my table, to replace his lies with your truth, your promises, your unlimited and unconditional love for me and all your children. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
This I declare about the LORD: He alone is my refuge, my place of safety; he is my God, and I trust him. Psalms 91:2 NLT
Where is your trust? Who or what do you trust in? The world will leave you hopeless, But with God all things are possible. Today’s prayer is that your trust and refuge is found in the Lord, not in temporary things of this world………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
“RELAX IN GOD’S EVERLASTING ARMS. Your weakness is an opportunity to grow strong in awareness of GOD’S Almighty Presence. When your energy fails you, do not look inward and lament the lack you find there. Look to GOD and HIS sufficiency; rejoice in GOD’S radiant riches that are abundantly available to help you. Go gently through this day, leaning on GOD and enjoying HIS Presence. Thank The LORD for your neediness, which is building trust-bonds between you. If you look back on your journey thus far, you can see that days of extreme weakness have been some of your most precious times. Memories of these days are richly interwoven with golden strands of GOD’S intimate Presence.”
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
I am still confident of this: I will see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. Wait for the LORD; be strong and take heart and wait for the LORD. PSALM 27 : 13 – 14
Prayer: Lord when my energy is lacking help me to close my eyes and let you refuel me, even if for just 5 minutes. Thank you for your intimate presence with me at all times. What a blessing. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
Pay careful attention to your own work, for then you will get the satisfaction of a job well done, and you won’t need to compare yourself to anyone else. Galatians 6:4 NLT
I see so many people trying to please everyone in all they do, you will bring continuous disappointment to yourself living that way. Human nature is to be jealous and full of envy. God on the other hand knows what you do, he knows your heart. Today I pray that we would all work unto the Lord in all we do for that will bring true satisfaction……..Be Blessed

Praise be to the Lord, to God our Savior, who daily bears our burdens. Psalm 68:19 NIV
Short and sweet, today I pray that we all would grasp the purpose of the cross and understand that Jesus took and did it all Today’s prayer is we would know without a doubt the Jesus is the King of Kings, Lord of all, doer of all things good ……..Be Blessed
