‭‭Jonah‬ ‭1:1-3‬

“The word of the Lord came to Jonah son of Amittai: “Go to the great city of Nineveh and preach against it, because its wickedness has come up before me.” But Jonah ran away from the Lord and headed for Tarshish. He went down to Joppa, where he found a ship bound for that port. After paying the fare, he went aboard and sailed for Tarshish to flee from the Lord.” ‭‭Jonah‬ ‭1:1-3‬ ‭NIV

Jonah ran from the Lord because he was afraid of the people of Nineveh. The people of Nineveh were wicked and evil, even though he ran he could never get away from what God called him to do. Has God called you to take his message to a particular people but you’re too afraid? To take his message to all but you don’t have the courage? Just as God gave Jonah the words and courage he will do the same for you. Today’s prayer is when you are convicted to witness to someone that is God’s Jonah call to you! Don’t be afraid God will provide the words……..Be Blessed, Be Courageous

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

COME TO GOD AND LISTEN! – ISAIAH 50 : 4, ISAIAH 55 : 2 – 3, JOHN 19 : 30, Matthew 27:50-51

https://youtu.be/AJyMa8K6-E8

“COME TO GOD AND LISTEN! Attune yourself to GOD’S voice, and receive HIS richest blessings. Marvel at the wonder of communing with the Creator of the universe while sitting in the comfort of your home. Kings who reign on earth tend to make themselves inaccessible; ordinary people almost never gain an audience with them. Even dignitaries must plow through red tape and protocol in order to speak with royalty. Though GOD is King of the universe, The LORD is totally accessible to you. GOD is with you wherever you are. Nothing can separate you from GOD’S Presence! When Jesus Christ, The LORD cried out from the cross, “It is finished!” the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. This opened the way for you to meet The LORD face to Face, with no need of protocol or priests. GOD, the King of kings, is your constant Companion.

Scripture

The Sovereign LORD has given me an instructed tongue, to know the word that sustains the weary. He wakens me morning by morning, wakens my ear to listen like one being taught. ISAIAH 50 : 4

Listen, listen to me, and eat what is good, and your soul will delight in the richest of fare. Give ear and come to me; hear me, that your soul may live. I will make an everlasting covenant with you, my faithful love promised to David. ISAIAH 55 : 2 – 3

When he had received the drink, Jesus said, “It is finished.” With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit. JOHN 19 : 30

And when Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, he gave up his spirit. At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth shook and the rocks split. Matthew 27:50-51

Prayer

Prayer: Jesus, thank you for making it possible to commune with you – the Creator of the universe – anywhere, anytime. Help me not to take that gift for granted and to commune with you often, like a child being taught. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Hebrews‬ ‭4:16‬

“Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.” ‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭4:16‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Do you find yourself running from God when you sin and miss the mark? There is no better time to run to God than when you sin. This scripture says to receive mercy and grace in our time of need, and mercy and grace are there all the time. Today’s prayer is that we would never draw away from God, but to always draw near to him to receive all the love he has waiting…….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

POUR ALL OF YOUR ENERGY into trusting GOD. – PSALM 23 : 4, MATTHEW 7 : 1 – 2, PROVERBS 29 : 25

https://youtu.be/JVmvQf6rmrw

“POUR ALL OF YOUR ENERGY into trusting GOD. It is through trust that you stay connected to GOD, aware of HIS Presence. Every step on your life-journey can be a step of faith. Baby steps of trust are simple for you; you can take them with almost unconscious ease. Giant steps are another matter altogether: leaping across chasms in semidarkness, scaling cliffs of uncertainty, trudging through the valley of the shadow of death. These feats require sheer concentration, as well as utter commitment to The LORD. Each of GOD’S children are a unique blend of temperament, giftedness, and life experiences. Something that is a baby step for you may be a giant step for another person, and vice versa. Only GOD knows the difficulty or ease of each segment of your journey. Beware of trying to impress others by acting as if your giant steps are only baby ones. Do not judge others who hesitate, in trembling fear, before an act that would be easy for you. If each of GOD’s children would seek to please HIM above all else, fear of others’ judgments would vanish, as would attempts to impress others. Focus your attention on the path just ahead of you and on the One who never leaves your side.”

Scripture

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. PSALM 23 : 4

“Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.” MATTHEW 7 : 1 – 2

Fear of man will prove to be a snare, but whoever trusts in the LORD is kept safe. PROVERBS 29 : 25

Prayer

Prayer: Lord help me to pour all of my energy into trusting you. Thank you for the gifts, talents and experiences you’ve given me. Help me to use them to serve you and serve others with excellence today. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Colossians‬ ‭2:6-7‬

“As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving.” Colossians‬ ‭2:6-7‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

The day we received Jesus as Lord and savior we became a new creation; the old is gone and the new has come. The Bible teaches us the way we ought to live and most of us can see the change in our lives, if not we need some more reading. Today’s prayer is we would all be so versed in the Bible that our lives would be a reflection of Christ…….Be Blessed

2 Thessalonians‬ ‭2:16-17‬ ‭

“Now may our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who loved us and by his grace gave us eternal comfort and a wonderful hope, comfort you and strengthen you in every good thing you do and say.” 2 Thessalonians‬ ‭2:16-17‬ ‭

Are you feeling down, stressed, alone today? There is a great comfort in our Lord Jesus, he has given us an eternal promise that will never fail. Today’s prayer is that we would rest in the comfort of our savior and realize man will fail us but Jesus never will. He is always there for us……..Be Blessed and turn to Jesus

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

2 Corinthians‬ ‭9‬:‭6-7‬ NLT

Remember this—a farmer who plants only a few seeds will get a small crop. But the one who plants generously will get a generous crop. You must each decide in your heart how much to give. And don’t give reluctantly or in response to pressure. “For God loves a person who gives cheerfully.” 2 Corinthians‬ ‭9‬:‭6-7‬ NLT

How’s your seed supply? This scripture says to give plenty and to do it with a cheerful heart. Helping others in need is a huge part of our daily lives, God will always provide for his children so trust and have faith. Today I pray that all would be generous, and with a happy heart, and remember giving is not just money, it may be a word of encouragement……..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 The LORD is your Strength and Song. – EXODUS 15 : 2, 2 CORINTHIANS 10 : 5, HEBREWS 10 : 23

https://youtu.be/BED7y4GTm4A

“TRUST GOD AND REFUSE TO WORRY, for The LORD 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, HE 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.”

Scripture

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

Prayer: Sweet Jesus, thank you for reminding me to refuse to worry about the future, measuring it against my own strength. Fill my thoughts with your great and precious promises and the hope of Heaven instead. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Yes, and the Lord will deliver me from every evil attack and will bring me safely into his heavenly Kingdom. All glory to God forever and ever! Amen. ‭2 Timothy‬ ‭4‬:‭18‬ NLT

Sometimes it seems like the attacks are never ending, we are surrounded by evil all day every day, but in this scripture Paul writes take heart God will deliver us from all evil. God’s plan for us is not to suffer but to have peace and joy knowing what awaits us when this life is done. Today I pray that we would all meditate on this scripture and know that we serve a loving, caring, and protecting God…….Be Blessed

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/PcUFjNPTmB0

“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 GOD chooses to make HIS humble home in your heart. It is there where you know GOD most intimately; it is there where The LORD speaks to you in holy whispers. Ask GOD’S Holy Spirit to quiet your mind so that you can hear HIS still, small voice within you. The LORD 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.”

Scripture

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

Prayer: Holy Spirit, quiet my mind so I can hear your still, small voice speaking words of life…peace…and love. Tune my heart to the frequency or your voice. In Jesus’ name. Amen
