“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 worlds circumstances destroy there 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
“YOU ARE GOD’S FOR ALL TIME; nothing can separate you from GOD’S Love. Since CHRIST, The LORD has invested HIS very Life in you, be well assured that The LORD will also take care of you. When your mind goes into neutral and your thoughts flow freely, you tend to feel anxious and alone. Your focus becomes problem solving. To get your mind back into gear, just turn toward GOD, bringing yourself and your problems into HIS Presence. Many problems vanish instantly in the Light of GOD’S Love, because you realize you are never alone. Other problems may remain, but they become secondary to knowing The LORD and rejoicing in the relationship GOD so freely offers you. Each moment you can choose to practice GOD’S Presence or to practice the presence of problems.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
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
The LORD replied, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.” EXODUS 33 : 14
Prayer: Lord when I feel anxious, alone, or stuck with a mountain of problems, help me to turn my mind towards you and simply say, help. Help me to live as if I am free because who the son has set free is free indeed. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
“Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted.” Galatians 6:1 NKJV
Oh is it so easy to judge!!! If we are true with ourselves we all trespass!!! Now who are we? We are sinners save by Gods Grace!!!! Today’s prayer is we would lift not drown people like us and miss the mark, God is watching and we all fall short of his glory…. let’s make sure we stay in his Grace by helping not judging……. 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 FOR YOU, your constant Companion and Provider. The question is whether you are with GOD and for GOD. Though GOD never leaves you, you can essentially “leave” GOD by ignoring HIM: thinking or acting as if The LORD is not with you. When you feel distance in your relationship, you know where the problem lies. GOD’S Love for you is constant; The LORD is the same yesterday, today, and forever. It is you who change like shifting sand, letting circumstances toss you this way and that. When you feel far from GOD whisper The LORD’S Name. This simple act, done in childlike faith, opens your heart to GOD’S Presence. Speak to The LORD in love-tones; prepare to receive HIS Love, which flows eternally from the cross. GOD is delighted when you open yourself to HIS loving Presence.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
“I am with you and will watch over you wherever you go, and I will bring you back to this land. I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you.” GENESIS 28 : 15
What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us? ROMANS 8 : 31
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. HEBREWS 13 : 8
Prayer: Lord thank you that you are the same yesterday, today, and forever. You are my rock, my firm foundation. Help me to stay close to you today. Gently remind me when I forget the King of Kings and Lord of Lords is with me and for me. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
“GOD IS THE POTTER; you are HIS clay. GOD designed you before the foundation of the world. The LORD arranges the events of each day to form you into this preconceived pattern. GOD’S everlasting Love is at work in every event of your life. On some days your will and GOD’S flow smoothly together. You tend to feel in control of your life when your wills are in harmony. On other days you feel as if you are swimming upstream, against the current of GOD’S purposes. When that happens, stop and seek GOD’S Face. The opposition you feel may be from The LORD, or it may be from the evil one. Talk with GOD about what you are experiencing. Let GOD’S Holy Spirit guide you through treacherous waters. As you move through the turbulent stream with GOD, let circumstances mold you into the one GOD desires you to be. Say yes to your Potter as you go through this day.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
Yet, O LORD, you are our Father. We are the clay, you are the potter; we are all the work of your hand. ISAIAH 64 : 8
My heart says of you, “Seek his face!” Your face, LORD, I will seek. PSALM 27 : 8
Prayer: Lord you are the Potter and I am the clay. Help me to remember I was made by you and for you. You are in control. Show me how to get out of the cock pit and let you lead me moment by moment. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
“For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.” Romans 8:6 NKJV
What things are your mind set on? Money? Material things? This scripture is explicit on not doing that!!! True peace only comes from God and nothing else. Today’s prayer is we would all pray that we would change what things are always on our mind in front of God and make the flip to only having our mind on God and God alone…….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
“There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death. For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of sin: He condemned sin in the flesh,” Romans 8:1-3 NKJV
Condemnation is 100% Death!!!! We all miss the mark but too dwell on it and not Repent will lead to a life that is not the life Christ died for. Today’s prayer is we would all understand Gods Grace and not live in a condemned space but a space of Repentance…… 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
“BRING GOD THE SACRIFICE of thanksgiving. Take nothing for granted, not even the rising of the sun. Before Satan tempted Eve in the Garden of Eden, thankfulness was as natural as breathing. Satan’s temptation involved pointing Eve to the one thing that was forbidden her. The garden was filled with luscious, desirable fruits, but Eve focused on the one fruit she couldn’t have rather than being thankful for the many good things freely available. This negative focus darkened her mind, and she succumbed to temptation. When you focus on what you don’t have or on situations that displease you, your mind also becomes darkened. You take for granted life, salvation, sunshine, flowers, and countless other gifts from GOD. You look for what is wrong and refuse to enjoy life until that is “fixed.” When you approach GOD with thanksgiving, the Light of The LORD’S Presence pours into you, transforming you through and through. Walk in the Light with GOD by practicing the discipline of thanksgiving.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
I will offer to You the sacrifice of thanksgiving, And will call upon the name of the LORD. PSALM 116 : 17 (NKJV)
The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, but God did say, ‘You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die.’” “You will not surely die,” the serpent said to the woman. “For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it. GENESIS 3 : 2 – 6
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: Lord thank you for the many blessings you have given me. From the sun rising, to a roof over my head, to a full belly. Keep my eyes fixed on You and your goodness today Lord. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!” Matthew 25:21 NIV
How are you doing with what the Lord has given you? Are you faithful with your gift?. When the Lord returns the most important words I would like to hear are “well done my good and faithful servant” Today’s prayer is that we would do all that we can for serving the Lord by sharing our gifts and the gospel while we are here on earth…….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 FILL YOU with HIS Love, Joy, and Peace. These are Glory-gifts, flowing from GOD’S living Presence. Though you are an earthen vessel, GOD designed you to be filled with heavenly contents. Your weakness is not a deterrent to being filled with GOD’S Holy Spirit; on the contrary, it provides an opportunity for GOD’S Power to shine forth more brightly. As you go through this day, trust The LORD to provide the strength that you need moment by moment. Don’t waste energy wondering whether you are adequate for today’s journey. GOD’S Holy Spirit within you is more than sufficient to handle whatever this day may bring. That is the basis for your confidence! In quietness (spending time alone with GOD) and confident trust (relying on GOD’S sufficiency) is your strength.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us. 2 CORINTHIANS 4 : 7 (NKJV)
This is what the Sovereign LORD, the Holy One of Israel, says: “In repentance and rest is your salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength, but you would have none of it.” ISAIAH 30 : 15
Prayer: Lord fill me with your love, joy, and peace. Help me to trust you to provide the strength I need moment by moment. Your Spirit in me is more than sufficient to handle whatever this day may bring. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
