MAKE GOD THE FOCAL POINT of your search for security. – ISAIAH 41 : 10, PSALM 139 : 10, JAMES 1 : 2

https://youtu.be/wWIhjGpwdj4

“MAKE GOD THE FOCAL POINT of your search for security. In your private thoughts, you are still trying to order your world so that it is predictable and feels safe. Not only is this an impossible goal, but it is also counterproductive to spiritual growth. When your private world feels unsteady and you grip GOD’S hand for support, you are living in conscious dependence on The LORD. Instead of yearning for a problem-free life, rejoice that trouble can highlight your awareness of GOD’S Presence. In the darkness of adversity, you are able to see more clearly the radiance of GOD’S Face. Accept the value of problems in this life, considering them pure joy. Remember that you have an eternity of trouble-free living awaiting you in heaven.”

Scripture

“So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” ISAIAH 41 : 10

Even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast. PSALM 139 : 10

Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds. JAMES 1 : 2

Prayer

Prayer: Lord help me to accept the value of problems in this life. I know they have valuable lessons to be learned if I allow them to. I look forward to Heaven when there will be no more tears or suffering or sorrow. No more trials. But until then, I trust you know best, Lord. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Philippians‬ ‭2‬ :‭ 14‬

Do everything without complaining and arguing, Philippians‬ ‭2‬ :‭ 14‬ NLT

Have you ever taken a step back and realized you complain about almost everything? Take for example your job, if all you do is complain about it you choose to work there!!! Why not take the attitude of thanks that you have that job and have the mind of Christ as you perform it. Today I pray that we all would be thankful for the blessings we have and not complain about them……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

BE WILLING to go out on a limb with GOD – PSALM 23 : 4, PSALM 9 : 10, JOHN 12 : 26

https://youtu.be/uV2STpy3pXQ

“BE WILLING to go out on a limb with GOD. If that is where GOD is leading you, it is the safest place to be. Your desire to live a risk-free life is a form of unbelief. Your longing to live close to The LORD is at odds with your attempts to minimize risk. You are approaching a crossroads in your journey. In order to follow GOD wholeheartedly, you must relinquish your tendency to play it safe. Let GOD lead you step by step through this day. If your primary focus is on The LORD, you can walk along perilous paths without being afraid. Eventually, you will learn to relax and enjoy the adventure of your journey together. As long as you stay close to GOD, The LORD’S sovereign Presence protects you wherever you go.”

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

Those who know your name will trust in you, for you, LORD, have never forsaken those who seek you. PSALM 9 : 10

Whoever serves me must follow me; and where I am, my servant also will be. My Father will honor the one who serves me. JOHN 12 : 26

Prayer

Prayer: Lord help me to follow you wholeheartedly, and surrender my ways for your ways. You know what’s best for me, I trust you Father. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

John‬ ‭3 : 11

“Most assuredly, I say to you, We speak what We know and testify what We have seen, and you do not receive Our witness.” ‭‭John‬ ‭3 : 11‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

It is hard for some to understand your testimony, especially those who do not know the Lord. We all have our individual God story and that is for a reason, we all are called differently. Today’s prayer is that we would stay strong to our testimony to witness people to Jesus and he will do the rest ……. Be Blessed

STAY EVER SO CLOSE TO GOD, and you will not deviate from the path GOD has prepared for you. – DEUTERONOMY 6 : 5, COLOSSIANS 3 : 23, PSALM 16 : 11

https://youtu.be/UXyWooqRRd8

“STAY EVER SO CLOSE TO GOD, and you will not deviate from the path GOD has prepared for you. This is the most efficient way to stay on track; it is also the most enjoyable way. Men tend to multiply duties in their observance of religion. This practice enables them to give GOD money, time, and work without yielding up to The LORD what HE desires the most — their hearts. Rules can be observed mechanically. Once they become habitual, they can be followed with minimal effort and almost no thought. These habit-forming rules provide a false sense of security, lulling the soul into a comatose condition. What GOD searches for in HIS children is an awakened soul that thrills to the Joy of HIS Presence! GOD created mankind to glorify HIM and enjoy HIM forever. GOD provides the Joy; your part is to glorify GOD by living close to HIM.”

Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. DEUTERONOMY 6 : 5

Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men. COLOSSIANS 3 : 23

You have made known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand. PSALM 16 : 11

Prayer: Lord, help me to have an awakened soul that gets thrilled about being in your presence. This advent season please help me to cultivate a hope as I anticipate Christ’s coming – both in celebration of his birth and in the promise of his return. In Jesus’ precious name. Amen.

Luke‬ ‭19 : 10‬

“For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭19 : 10‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Jesus came to save the world, not condemn it! Jesus went to the lost to show them the way to eternal life, some followed and some didn’t. Today it has remained the same, some follow and some have too much pride to understand they need a savior. Today’s prayer is that we would as believers pray for the lost not condemn them ……. Be Blessed

Psalm‬ ‭62 : 8‬

“Trust in him at all times, you people; pour out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge.” ‭‭Psalm‬ ‭62 : 8‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Trust is such a difficult thing, To put your trust in someone or something 100% can let you down. To fully trust in the Lord will never let you down! Today I pray that we would always trust the Lord in every situation, even if we can’t see results still trust in his everlasting promise …… 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

Today’s prayer is that when our season is over we would know it’s time for a change, let God direct our direction in life and live it to the fullest! We are not promised tomorrow …… 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

LET GOD’S PRESENCE override everything you experience. – PSALM 31 : 20, GENESIS 28 : 11 – 16

https://youtu.be/5ez1xSRAFRg

“LET GOD’S PRESENCE override everything you experience. Like a luminous veil of Light, GOD hovers over you and everything around you. The LORD is training you to stay conscious of HIM in each situation you encounter. When the patriarch Jacob ran away from his enraged brother, he went to sleep on a stone pillow in a land that seemed desolate. But after dreaming about heaven and angels and promises of GOD’S Presence, he awoke and exclaimed: “Surely the LORD is in this place, and I was not aware of it.” His discovery was not only for him but for all who seek The LORD. Whenever you feel distant from GOD, say: “Surely the Lord is in this place!” Then, ask The LORD to give you awareness of HIS Presence. This is a prayer that GOD delights to answer.”

Scripture

In the shelter of your presence you hide them from the intrigues of men; in your dwelling you keep them safe from accusing tongues. PSALM 31 : 20

When he reached a certain place, he stopped for the night because the sun had set. Taking one of the stones there, he put it under his head and lay down to sleep. He had a dream in which he saw a stairway resting on the earth, with its top reaching to heaven, and the angels of God were ascending and descending on it. There above it stood the LORD, and he said: “I am the LORD, the God of your father Abraham and the God of Isaac. I will give you and your descendants the land on which you are lying. Your descendants will be like the dust of the earth, and you will spread out to the west and to the east, to the north and to the south. All peoples on earth will be blessed through you and your offspring. I am with you and will watch over you wherever you go, and I will bring you back to this land. I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you.” When Jacob awoke from his sleep, he thought, “Surely the LORD is in this place, and I was not aware of it.” GENESIS 28 : 11 – 16

Prayer

Prayer: God thank you for being in this place, no matter where I am, you are there. Thank you for never leaving me, guiding me, and watching over me. “Surely the Lord is in this place!” In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Romans 12 : 1 – 2

beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. Romans 12 : 1 – 2 NKJV

Paul says I bring to you, by the mercies of God. Too many Christians are going to GOD trying to make him perform by their works, we should be thanking him for his mercy ! Today I pray that we all would renew our minds daily, and embrace God’s mercy for us ….. 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
