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
“REMEMBER THAT YOU LIVE IN a fallen world: an abnormal world tainted by sin. Much frustration and failure result from your seeking perfection in this life. There is nothing perfect in this world except GOD. That is why closeness to GOD satisfies deep yearnings and fills you with Joy. GOD has planted longing for perfection in every human heart. This is a good desire, which GOD alone can fulfill. But most people seek this fulfillment in other people and earthly pleasures or achievements. Thus they create idols, before which they bow down. GOD will have no other gods before HIM! Make GOD the deepest desire of your heart. Let GOD fulfill your yearning for perfection.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
“You shall have no other gods before me.” EXODUS 20 : 3

And his name will be the hope of all the world.” Matthew 12:21 NLT

“GOD WANTS TO BE CENTRAL in your entire being. When your focus is firmly on GOD, HIS Peace displaces fears and worries. They will encircle you, seeking entrance, so you must stay alert. Let trust and thankfulness stand guard, turning back fear before it can gain a foothold. There is no fear in GOD’S Love, which shines on you continually. Sit quietly in GOD’S Love-Light, while The LORD blesses you with radiant Peace. Turn your whole being to trusting and loving GOD.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

“RELAX IN GOD’S HEALING, Holy Presence. Be still, while GOD transforms your heart and mind. Let go of cares and worries, so that you can receive The LORD’S Peace. Cease striving, and know that The LORD is God. Do not be like Pharisees who multiplied regulations, creating their own form of “godliness.” They got so wrapped up in their own rules that they lost sight of GOD. Even today, man-made rules about how to live the Christian life enslave many people. Their focus is on their performance, rather than on GOD. It is through knowing GOD intimately that you become like HIM. This requires spending time alone with The LORD. Let go, relax, be still, and know that The LORD is God.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth! PSALM 46 : 10 (NKJV)

Prayer: Lord help me to spend time alone with you so I can get to know you intimately and little by little, be more like Jesus and less like me. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
“GOD IS INVOLVED in each moment of your life. GOD has carefully mapped out every inch of your journey through this day, even though much of it may feel haphazard. Because the world is in a fallen condition, things always seem to be unraveling around the edges. Expect to find trouble in this day. At the same time, trust that GOD’S way is perfect, even in the midst of such messy imperfection. Stay conscious of GOD as you go through this day, remembering that The LORD never leaves your side. Let the Holy Spirit guide you step by step, protecting you from unnecessary trials and equipping you to get through whatever must be endured. As you trudge through the sludge of this fallen world, keep your mind in heavenly places with GOD. Thus the Light of GOD”S Presence shines on you, giving you Peace and Joy that circumstances cannot touch.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

“THE PEACE THAT GOD GIVES YOU transcends your intellect. When most of your mental energy goes into efforts to figure things out, you are unable to receive this glorious gift. GOD looks into your mind and see thoughts spinning round and round: going nowhere, accomplishing nothing. All the while, The LORD’S Peace hovers over you, searching for a place to land. Be still in The LORD’S Presence, inviting GOD to control your thoughts. Let GOD’S Light soak into your mind and heart, until you are aglow with The LORD’S very Being. This is the most effective way to receive GOD’S Peace.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
