LIVE FIRST AND FOREMOST in GOD’S Presence. – PSALM 89 : 15 – 16, PSALM 16 : 8, 2 PETER 1 : 2

https://youtu.be/hSdXNpmEk7s

“LIVE FIRST AND FOREMOST in GOD’S Presence. Gradually you will become more aware of GOD than of people and places around you. This awareness will not detract from your relationships with others. Instead, it will increase your ability to give love and encouragement to them. GOD’S Peace will permeate your words and demeanor. You will be active in the world, yet one step removed from it. You will not be easily shaken, because The LORD’S enveloping presence buffers the blow of problems. This is the path GOD has set before you. As you follow it wholeheartedly, you experience abundant Life and Peace.”

Blessed are those who have learned to acclaim you, who walk in the light of your presence, O LORD. They rejoice in your name all day long; they exult in your righteousness. PSALM 89 : 15 – 16

I have set the LORD always before me. Because he is at my right hand, I will not be shaken. PSALM 16 : 8

Grace and peace be yours in abundance through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord. 2 PETER 1 : 2

Prayer: Lord help me to live first and foremost in your presence. Increase my ability to give love and encouragement to others. To be in this world but not of it and experience your abundant joy and peace. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

WALK WITH GOD in the freedom of forgiveness. – PSALM 68 : 19, 1 JOHN 1 : 7 – 9, 1 JOHN 4 : 18

https://youtu.be/zxOg4cyg5Oo

“WALK WITH GOD in the freedom of forgiveness. The path you follow together is sometimes steep and slippery. If you carry a burden of guilt on your back, you are more likely to stumble and fall. At your request, Christ will remove the heavy load from you and bury it at the foot of the cross. When GOD unburdens you, you are undeniably free! Stand up straight and tall in GOD’S Presence, so that no one can place more burdens on your back. Look into GOD’S Face and feel the warmth of HIS Love-Light shining upon you. It is this unconditional Love that frees you from both fears and sins. Spend time basking in the Light of GOD’S Presence. As you come to know GOD more and more intimately, you grow increasingly free.”

Praise be to the Lord, to God our Savior, who daily bears our burdens. PSALM 68 : 19

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. If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. 1 JOHN 1 : 7 – 9

There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. 1 JOHN 4 : 18

Prayer: God thank you for your unconditional love that frees me from all my sins and all my fears. When either try to creep into my thoughts, remind me to replace those thoughts with your truth and your promises. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

1 John 2:16 – 17

For the world offers only a craving for physical pleasure, a craving for everything we see, and pride in our achievements and possessions. These are not from the Father, but are from this world. And this world is fading away, along with everything that people crave. But anyone who does what pleases God will live forever. 1 John 2:16 – 17

What are your priorities? What makes you happy? In today’s society you are measured by what you have, where you live, and what you drive, as Christians we should not measure ourselves by material things but be thankful for our salvation…..God wants to bless us with nice things but he doesn’t ever want us to put them in front of 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

John‬ ‭16‬:‭8

And when he comes, he will convict the world of its sin, and of God’s righteousness, and of the coming judgment. John‬ ‭16‬:‭8‬ NLT

The Holy Spirit came to convict the world of it’s sin, before we were believers the Spirit worked on us in the same way. As believers the Holy Spirit does not convict us of our sin but of our righteousness!!! He tells us that’s not who we are when we sin, as The Spirit convicts the non-believers of their sin and shows them the way. Today I pray that we would be used as an instrument of the spirit to win souls for 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

TRUST GOD AND REFUSE TO WORRY, for GOD is your Strength and Song. – EXODUS 15 : 2, 2 CORINTHIANS 10 : 5, HEBREWS 10 : 23

https://youtu.be/8vEb2Y-QsHU

“TRUST GOD AND REFUSE TO WORRY, for GOD is your Strength and Song. You are feeling wobbly this morning, looking at difficult times looming ahead, measuring them against your own strength. However, they are not today’s tasks—or even tomorrow’s. So leave them in the future and come home to the present, where you will find The LORD waiting for you. Since GOD is your Strength, GOD can empower you to handle each task as it comes. Because GOD is your Song, HE can give you Joy as you work alongside HIM. Keep bringing your mind back to the present moment. Among all GOD’S creatures, only humans can anticipate future events. This ability is a blessing, but it becomes a curse whenever it is misused. If you use your magnificent mind to worry about tomorrow, you cloak yourself in dark unbelief. However, when the hope of heaven fills your thoughts, the Light of The LORD’S Presence envelops you. Though heaven is the future, it is also present tense. As you walk in the Light with GOD, you have one foot on earth and one foot in heaven.”

The LORD is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation. He is my God, and I will praise him, my father’s God, and I will exalt him. EXODUS 15 : 2

We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. 2 CORINTHIANS 10 : 5

Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful. HEBREWS 10 : 23

Prayer: Lord help me to trust you and refuse to worry, for you are my strength and song. Help me to discern the thoughts today that align with your word and the ones that don’t. And to replace the lies with your truth. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

‭‭1 Peter‬ ‭4:7-8

“The end of all things is near. Therefore be alert and of sober mind so that you may pray. Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.” ‭‭1 Peter‬ ‭4:7-8‬ ‭NIV‬‬

With all the signs in the world today it’s critical to be alert! When you leave your house, when you are out at night at the grocery store, etc, etc, etc. continuous prayer is essential, ask the father to provide a hedge of protection for all your loved ones. Love all and show that love continually. Today’s prayer is that we would serve God with all we have and love all that we come across…….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 QUIETLY IN GOD’S PRESENCE while HIS thoughts form silently in the depths of your being. – 1 KINGS 19 : 12 , PSALM 5 : 3

https://youtu.be/Ytf-8VsAme4

“WAIT QUIETLY IN GOD’S PRESENCE while HIS thoughts form silently in the depths of your being. Do not try to rush this process, because hurry keeps your heart earthbound. GOD is the Creator of the entire universe, yet HE chooses to make HIS humble home in your heart. It is there where you know The LORD most intimately; it is there where The LORD speaks to you in holy whispers. Ask GOD’S Spirit to quiet your mind so that you can hear HIS still, small voice within you. GOD is speaking to you continually: words of Life . . . Peace . . . Love. Tune your heart to receive these messages of abundant blessing. Lay your requests before GOD and wait in expectation.”

And after the earthquake a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire; and after the fire a still small voice. 1 KINGS 19 : 12 (NKJV)

In the morning, O LORD, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait in expectation. PSALM 5 : 3

Prayer: Lord quiet my mind so I can hear your still small voice, guide me and lead me. I lay my concerns and my requests at your feet and wait in expectation, knowing you have a good plan. Thank you for speaking to me continually words of life, peace, and love. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

John‬ ‭1:8-12

“He himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light. The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world. He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him. Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God—” ‭‭John‬ ‭1:8-12‬ ‭NIV‬‬

John knew he was not the light or the savior, he knew his assignment , to tell all of the one who was coming. Jesus trusts that we as disciples will do the exact same thing, “Tell the world” – Today’s prayer is that we would all have the boldness and words to witness to all the non believers…….Be Blessed & witness away

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 SEE THINGS more and more from GOD’S perspective. – PROVERBS 20 : 24, 2 CORINTHIANS 4 : 17 – 18

https://youtu.be/PNan9zZcURc

“TRY TO SEE THINGS more and more from GOD’S perspective. Let the Light of GOD’S Presence so fully fill your mind that you view the world through The LORD. When little things don’t go as you had hoped, look to GOD lightheartedly and say, “Oh, well.” This simple discipline can protect you from being burdened with an accumulation of petty cares and frustrations. If you practice this diligently, you will make a life-changing discovery: You realize that most of the things that worry you are not important. If you shrug them off immediately and return your focus to GOD, you will walk through your days with lighter steps and a joyful heart. When serious problems come your way, you will have more reserves for dealing with them. You will not have squandered your energy on petty problems. You may even reach the point where you can agree with the apostle Paul that all your troubles are light and momentary, compared with the eternal glory being achieved by them.”

A man’s steps are directed by the LORD. How then can anyone understand his own way? PROVERBS 20 : 24

For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. 2 CORINTHIANS 4 : 17 – 18

Prayer: God help me to see things from your perspective today. To shrug off worries and return my focus to you, where there is unending peace and joy. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

2 Corinthians 10:5

casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ. 2 Corinthians 10:5 NKJV

One of the most difficult things to overcome in the natural world is to put bad thoughts out of your mind, how are we going to pay the mortgage, why can’t I get ahead in life? Negative thoughts will eventually take over in the form of actual situations if you don’t know what God’s word says about that situation. Today’s prayer is when negative thoughts enter your mind, confess God’s word and get rid of that ” stinkin thinkin”. We are more than conquerors through Christ 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
