1 John‬ ‭2:5-6‬

“But if anyone obeys his word, love for God is truly made complete in them. This is how we know we are in him: Whoever claims to live in him must live as Jesus did.” 1 John‬ ‭2:5-6‬ ‭NIV‬‬

This scripture breaks it down in such simple terms it’s amazing. If someone asked you if you love God what would your response be? Of course it would be YES so if you love God don’t you want to try to please him at all times? To live like Jesus is to live a life that is pleasing to God, to have the heart of a servant. Today’s prayer is that we would wake up daily and start our day out by praying “Heavenly Father let me not serve myself today, but serve only you” let your will be done throughout my day and make this day not mine but yours” I believe this confession will help us all live more like 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

GOD IS THE ETERNAL “I AM”; GOD always has been, and GOD always will be. – EXODUS 3 : 14, 1 CORINTHIANS 3 : 16, PSALM 25 : 14 – 15

GOD IS THE ETERNAL "I AM"; GOD always has been, and GOD always will be. (https://youtu.be/0N4fQPBuBF8)

“GOD IS THE ETERNAL “I AM”; GOD always has been, and GOD always will be. In GOD’S Presence you experience Love and Light, Peace and Joy. GOD is intimately involved in all your moments, and GOD is training you to be aware of HIM at all times. Your assignment is to collaborate with The LORD in this training process. GOD has taken up residence within you; HE is central in your innermost being. Your mind goes off in tangents from its holy Center, time after time. Do not be alarmed by your inability to remain focused on The LORD. Simply bring your thoughts gently back to GOD each time they wander. The quickest way to redirect your mind to The LORD is to whisper HIS Name.”

God said to Moses, “I am who I am. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: ‘I AM has sent me to you.’” EXODUS 3 : 14

Don’t you know that you yourselves are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit lives in you? 1 CORINTHIANS 3 : 16

The LORD confides in those who fear him; he makes his covenant known to them. My eyes are ever on the LORD, for only he will release my feet from the snare. PSALM 25 : 14 – 15

Prayer: God thank you for sharing intimate things when I spend time with you. Thank you for being intimately involved in every moment of my life. Help me to be more aware of your presence today. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

GOD IS ALL AROUND YOU, hovering over you even as you seek HIS Face. – PSALM 139 : 1 – 4, EPHESIANS 2 : 13, 2 CORINTHIANS 5 : 21

https://youtu.be/BWUVhUfuB7c

GOD IS ALL AROUND YOU, hovering over you even as you seek HIS Face. (https://youtu.be/BWUVhUfuB7c)

“GOD IS ALL AROUND YOU, hovering over you even as you seek HIS Face. GOD is nearer than you dare believe, closer than the air you breathe. If GOD’S children could only recognize HIS Presence, they would never feel lonely again. The LORD knows every thought before you think it, every word before you speak it. GOD’S Presence impinges on your innermost being. Can you see the absurdity of trying to hide anything from HIM? You can easily deceive other people, and even yourself; but GOD can read you like an open, large-print book. Deep within themselves, most people have some awareness of The LORD’S imminent Presence. Many people run from GOD and vehemently deny HIS existence, because The LORD’S closeness terrifies them. But GOD’S own children have nothing to fear, for CHRIST has cleansed them by HIS blood and clothed them in HIS righteousness. Be blessed by GOD’S intimate nearness. Since The LORD lives in you, let HIM also live through you, shining GOD’S Light into the darkness.”

O LORD, you have searched me and you know me. You know when I sit and when I rise; you perceive my thoughts from afar. You discern my going out and my lying down; you are familiar with all my ways. Before a word is on my tongue you know it completely, O LORD. PSALM 139 : 1 – 4

But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ. EPHESIANS 2 : 13

God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God. 2 CORINTHIANS 5 : 21

Prayer: Lord help me to feel and recognize your presence with me and in me more today. May your light shine through me to others in my words, thoughts, and actions. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

John 14:6

Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. John 14:6 NKJV

Jesus said “I am the way” the way to eternal life is through salvation in Jesus which is a gift!!! Not of man’s effort. Jesus said ” I am the truth” this means that every spoken word from him is absolute!!!! We should strive to be like him. He said ” I am the life” there is no life worth living aside from Jesus !!!! He is our comfort, counselor , best friend, our everything. Today meditate on the gift of salvation and give thanks for that unconditional 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

ENTRUST YOUR LOVED ONES TO GOD; release them into HIS protective care. – GENESIS 22 : 9 – 12, EPHESIANS 3 : 20, EXODUS 33 : 14

https://youtu.be/ifPgKk2kgP4

ENTRUST YOUR LOVED ONES TO GOD; release them into HIS protective care. (https://youtu.be/ifPgKk2kgP4)

“ENTRUST YOUR LOVED ONES TO GOD; release them into HIS protective care. They are much safer with GOD than in your clinging hands. If you let a loved one become an idol in your heart, you endanger that one—as well as yourself. Remember the extreme measures GOD used with Abraham and Isaac. GOD took Isaac to the very point of death to free Abraham from son-worship. Both Abraham and Isaac suffered terribly because of the father’s undisciplined emotions. GOD detests idolatry, even in the form of parental love. When you release loved ones to The LORD, you are free to cling to GOD’S hand. As you entrust others into The LORD’S care, GOD is free to shower blessings on them. The LORD’S Presence will go with them wherever they go, and HE will give them rest. This same Presence stays with you, as you relax and place your trust in GOD. Watch to see what The LORD will do.”

When they reached the place God had told him about, Abraham built an altar there and arranged the wood on it. He bound his son Isaac and laid him on the altar, on top of the wood. Then he reached out his hand and took the knife to slay his son. But the angel of the LORD called out to him from heaven, “Abraham! Abraham!” “Here I am,” he replied. “Do not lay a hand on the boy,” he said. “Do not do anything to him. Now I know that you fear God, because you have not withheld from me your son, your only son.” GENESIS 22 : 9 – 12

Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us. . . . EPHESIANS 3 : 20

The LORD replied, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.” EXODUS 33 : 14

Prayer: God I release my children to you. You love them and can take care of them far better than I can. May your presence go with them wherever they go. I can’t wait to watch and see what you do in their lives and in mine. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Romans‬ ‭6:23‬

“For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans‬ ‭6:23‬

This scripture speaks about choice, we all were born into sin but throughout our life we are given a choice to continue to live in sin or gain freedom through the sacrifice that Jesus paid. Today’s prayer is that we would truly seek to bring souls to the Lord! Let the cross of Calvary not be for just some but for all…….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

‭Philippians‬ ‭3:7

“But whatever things were gain to me, those things I have counted as loss for the sake of Christ.”‭ ‭Philippians‬ ‭3:7‬ ‭NASB‬‬

Before when we were not in Christ, trivial things meant the most to us, possessions, material things, ourselves!!! Is this you today? This scripture tells us that we should count all that was gain to us as nothing!!! Ouch, hard to swallow I know. Today’s prayer is that we would live a life of priority, nice things are nice but are we blessing others on the account of the blessing Jesus gave us?…….Be Blessed & Be a Blessing always

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

Jeremiah‬ ‭1 : 6 – 8‬

“Alas, Sovereign Lord,” I said, “I do not know how to speak; I am too young.” But the Lord said to me, “Do not say, ‘I am too young.’ You must go to everyone I send you to and say whatever I command you. Do not be afraid of them, for I am with you and will rescue you,” declares the Lord.” ‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭1:6-8‬ ‭NIV‬‬

“God does not call the qualified, He qualifies the called”. Ever felt like Jeremiah? Scared? Not worthy? Well God has called you to a certain ministry, whether it’s Pastor, missions, or just to be an encourager. Today’s prayer is that you would trust God and just step into your calling He is right there by your side……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

CHRIST, THE LORD IS A GOD WHO HEALS. – PSALM 103 : 3, 2 CORINTHIANS 12 : 7 – 9, MATTHEW 7 : 7

https://youtu.be/gD6-yQjAH58

CHRIST, THE LORD IS A GOD WHO HEALS. (https://youtu.be/gD6-yQjAH58)

“CHRIST, THE LORD IS A GOD WHO HEALS. The LORD heals broken bodies, broken minds, broken hearts, broken lives, and broken relationships. GOD’S very Presence has immense healing powers. You cannot live close to The LORD without experiencing some degree of healing. However, it is also true that you have not because you ask not. You receive the healing that flows naturally from GOD’S Presence, whether you seek it or not. But there is more— much more—available to those who ask. The first step in receiving healing is to live ever so close to GOD. The benefits of this practice are too numerous to list. As you grow more and more intimate with GOD, HE reveals HIS will to you more directly. When the time is right, The LORD prompts you to ask for healing of some brokenness in you or in another person. The healing may be instantaneous, or it may be a process. That is up to GOD. Your part is to trust GOD fully and to thank HIM for the restoration that has begun. GOD rarely heals all the brokenness in a person’s life. Even The LORD’S servant Paul was told, “My grace is sufficient for you,” when he sought healing for the thorn in his flesh. Nonetheless, much healing is available to those whose lives are intimately interwoven with The LORD’S. Ask, and you will receive.”

. . . who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases . . . PSALM 103 : 3

To keep me from becoming conceited because of these surpassingly great revelations, there was given me a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me. Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. 2 CORINTHIANS 12 : 7 – 9

“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.” MATTHEW 7 : 7

Prayer: Lord help me to grow more and more intimate with you. To learn your voice and hear your will for me more clearly. I want my life to be tightly interwoven with yours. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

‭‭Luke‬ ‭6:43‬

““No good tree bears bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear good fruit.” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭6:43‬ ‭NIV‬‬

How’s your fruit? Are you yielding a crop? Jesus speaks this parable in regards to are we rooted in him or the world? Those who are rooted in the Lord do things of the Lord, those who are rooted in the world do things opposite of the Lord. Today’s prayer is that we would make sure we are fertilized in the word daily therefore we become more like Christ…….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
