“For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed.” John 3:20
Light always exposes darkness! When we are living in sin we are convicted by the light of the world itself – The Holy Spirit!!! Today’s prayer is we would be sensitive to the guiding of the Holy Spirit, He is the Great Counselor not the Great Condemnation……..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
“STAY ON THE HIGH ROAD WITH GOD. Many voices clamor for your attention, trying to divert you to another path. But GOD has called you to walk ever so closely with HIM, soaking in HIS Presence, living in HIS Peace. This is GOD’s unique design for you, planned before the world began. The LORD has called each of HIS children to a different path, distinctly designed for that one. Do not let anyone convince you that his path is the only right way. And be careful not to extol your path as superior to another’s way. What GOD requires of you is to act justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with HIM —wherever GOD leads.”
For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. EPHESIANS 2 : 10
He has showed you, O man, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God. MICAH 6 : 8
Prayer: God help me to walk ever so close to you today, soaking in your presence, living in your peace. Close and still enough to hear your voice and follow wherever you lead. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
“Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the creation of the world. For I was hungry, and you fed me. I was thirsty, and you gave me a drink. I was a stranger, and you invited me into your home. I was naked, and you gave me clothing. I was sick, and you cared for me. I was in prison, and you visited me.’ “Then these righteous ones will reply, ‘Lord, when did we ever see you hungry and feed you? Or thirsty and give you something to drink? Or a stranger and show you hospitality? Or naked and give you clothing? When did we ever see you sick or in prison and visit you?’ “And the King will say, ‘I tell you the truth, when you did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were doing it to me!” Matthew 25:34-40 NLT
This scripture is so powerful!!! Jesus speaks of helping those in need, beings that he considers all creation his. When was the last time you lent a helping hand to a complete stranger? When was the last time you made a selfless act of kindness? Today’s prayer is that we would see Jesus in all we come across and treat them as if they were the most special person on earth…….Be Blessed
2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new
“WHEN YOU APPROACH GOD in stillness and in trust, you are strengthened. You need a buffer zone of silence around you in order to focus on things that are unseen. Since GOD is invisible, you must not let your senses dominate your thinking. The curse of this age is over-stimulation of the senses, which blocks out awareness of the unseen world. The tangible world still reflects GOD’S Glory, to those who have eyes that see and ears that hear. Spending time alone with GOD is the best way to develop seeing eyes and hearing ears. The goal is to be aware of unseen things even as you live out your life in the visible world.”
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 : 18
And they were calling to one another: “Holy, holy, holy is the LORD Almighty; the whole earth is full of his glory.” ISAIAH 6 : 3
I wait for the LORD, my soul waits, and in his word I put my hope. PSALM 130 : 5
Prayer: God help me to create a buffer zone of silence and stillness so I can hear from you and feel your presence. There is nothing like it. Fill me with your peace and joy today. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
“But when He saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion for them, because they were weary and scattered, like sheep having no shepherd. Then He said to His disciples, “The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few.” Matthew 9:36-37 NKJV
There are so many people in the world that need Jesus, lost and wandering just getting along. The responsibility of us as christians is to help them to find the Lord. Today’s prayer is that we would be bold enough to tell all about Jesus and share the way to eternal life……..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 LOVES YOU with an everlasting Love. Before time began, GOD knew you. For years you swam around in a sea of meaninglessness, searching for Love, hoping for hope. All that time GOD was pursuing you, aching to embrace you in HIS compassionate arms. When time was right, GOD revealed Himself to you. The LORD lifted you out of that sea of despair and set you down on a firm foundation. Sometimes you felt naked—exposed to the revealing Light of GOD’S Presence. The LORD wrapped an ermine robe around you: HIS robe of righteousness. The LORD sang you a Love song, whose beginning and end are veiled in eternity. GOD infused meaning into your mind and harmony into your heart. Join GOD in singing HIS song. Together with GOD you will draw others out of darkness into GOD’S marvelous Light.”
The LORD appeared to us in the past, saying: “I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with loving-kindness.” JEREMIAH 31 : 3
I delight greatly in the LORD; my soul rejoices in my God. For he has clothed me with garments of salvation and arrayed me in a robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom adorns his head like a priest, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels. ISAIAH 61 : 10
But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light. 1 PETER 2 : 9 (NKJV)
Prayer: God thank you for giving me purpose – to love you and love others. I love you because you first loved me. Thank you for relentlessly pursuing me. I love you Lord. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
But as for you, speak the things which are proper for sound doctrine: that the older men be sober, reverent, temperate, sound in faith, in love, in patience; the older women likewise, that they be reverent in behavior, not slanderers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things— that they admonish the young women to love their husbands, to love their children, to be discreet, chaste, homemakers, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be blasphemed. Likewise, exhort the young men to be sober-minded, in all things showing yourself to be a pattern of good works; in doctrine showing integrity, reverence, incorruptibility, sound speech that cannot be condemned, that one who is an opponent may be ashamed, having nothing evil to say of you.
“You have made known to me the paths of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence.” Acts 2:28 NIV
Isn’t nice to know that we serve a God that not only laid out the instruction manual for our lives but also gave us a internal counselor. The bible directs us on how we are to live and the Holy Spirit convicts us how we should live! Praise God!!! Today’s prayer is that we would be sensitive to not only the word of God but also the Holy Spirit…….. 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
“Preach the word of God. Be prepared, whether the time is favorable or not. 2 Timothy 4:2 NLT
Do you wait for the perfect timing to tell someone about the Lord? Have you ever had that burning down in the pit of your stomach to tell someone but didn’t cease the moment? We all have. This scripture tells us to always be prepared and take the opportunity with all whenever you can. Today’s prayer is that in a unbelieving world we would have the courage to tell everyone we can about Jesus and let him do the rest……..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 don’t be afraid, for The LORD is your Strength and Song. Do not let fear dissipate your energy. Instead, invest your energy in trusting GOD and singing HIS Song. The battle for control of your mind is fierce, and years of worry have made you vulnerable to the enemy. Therefore, you need to be vigilant in guarding your thoughts. Do not despise this weakness in yourself, since GOD is using it to draw you closer to HIM. Your constant need for GOD creates an intimacy that is well worth all the effort. You are not alone in this struggle for your mind. The LORD’S Holy Spirit living within you is ever ready to help in this striving. Ask GOD to control your mind; HE will bless you with Life and Peace.”
“Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. The LORD, the LORD, is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation.” ISAIAH 12 : 2
The mind of sinful man is death, but the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace. ROMANS 8 : 6
Prayer: Lord help me to invest my energy in trusting you and singing your song. Help me to be vigilant to guard my thoughts. Holy Spirit control my mind and fill me with life and peace. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
