“So, as those who have been chosen of God, holy and beloved, put on a heart of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience; bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, whoever has a complaint against anyone; just as the Lord forgave you, so also should you.” Colossians 3:12-13
Forgiveness is not very common this day and age ! Life is so short and we are not promised tomorrow, so why hold the grudge? Today’s prayer is we would all live a life full of forgiveness, kindness, humility and love……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
“But as for me, I know that my Redeemer lives, and he will stand upon the earth at last. Job 19:25 NLT
We have so many things that we hope for, that we dream about, that we pray for, but the reality is all of those things are temporary. The promise that we have of our Lord’s return is eternal….. Today I pray that we all will not lose sight of the return of Jesus, nice things are great but nothing compared to the eternal promise of Heaven…..Be Blessed & Be A Blessing
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
“For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 6:23
Two choices choose life or death!! This scripture is clear, to live a life in sin that will surely lead you to death or to live a life with God and you will have eternal life. Today’s prayer is that we would all live a life that is pleasing to God…….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
“WORSHIP GOD ONLY. GOD is King of kings and Lord of lords, dwelling in unapproachable Light. GOD is taking care of you! The LORD is not only committed to caring for you, but HE is also absolutely capable of doing so. Rest in GOD, weary one, for this is a form of worship. Though self-flagellation has gone out of style, many of GOD’S children drive themselves like racehorses. They whip themselves into action, ignoring how exhausted they are. They forget that The LORD is sovereign and that HIS ways are higher than theirs. Underneath their driven service, they may secretly resent GOD as a harsh taskmaster. Their worship of GOD is lukewarm, because HE is no longer their First Love. GOD’S invitation never changes: Come to GOD, all you who are weary, and HE will give you rest. Worship GOD by resting peacefully in HIS Presence.”
. . . which God will bring about in his own time—God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords, who alone is immortal and who lives in unapproachable light, whom no one has seen or can see. To him be honor and might forever. Amen. 1 TIMOTHY 6 : 15 – 16
“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the LORD. “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.” ISAIAH 55 : 8 – 9
Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken your first love. REVELATION 2 : 4
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” MATTHEW 11 : 28
Prayer: God, teach me to worship you by resting in you. Help me to go about my day the way Jesus did – intentional yet unhurried. And patient when detours come. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
“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.
