“The name of the LORD is a strong tower; The righteous run to it and are safe.” Proverbs 18 : 10
Where do you seek out your refuge? Who do you go to with every situation? The Lord is a strong tower for us and every situation that we have. We can never have too much for God almighty to handle. Today’s prayer is that we would seek our refuge from the Lord, not the world……..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 CULMINATION of all your hopes and desires. GOD is the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last: who is and was and is to come. Before you knew GOD, you expressed your longing for The LORD in hurtful ways. You were ever so vulnerable to the evil around you in the world. But now The LORD’S Presence safely shields you, enfolding you in HIS loving arms. GOD has lifted you out of darkness into HIS marvelous Light. Though GOD has brought many pleasures into your life, not one of them is essential. Receive The LORD’S blessings with open hands. Enjoy GOD’S good gifts, but do not cling to them. Turn your attention to the Giver of all good things, and rest in the knowledge that you are complete in The LORD. The one thing you absolutely need is the one thing you can never lose: GOD’S Presence with you.”
Scripture
Find rest, O my soul, in God alone; my hope comes from him. He alone is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will not be shaken. My salvation and my honor depend on God; he is my mighty rock, my refuge. Trust in him at all times, O people; pour out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge. PSALM 62 : 5 – 8
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)
Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. JAMES 1 : 17
Prayer
Prayer: God help me to receive your blessings with open hands, yet not holding onto anything tighter than I hold onto you. You are the giver of all good things. Keep my eyes fixed on you this week. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
Obviously, I’m not trying to win the approval of people, but of God. If pleasing people were my goal, I would not be Christ’s servant. Galatians 1 : 10 NLT
Who are you trying to please? Do you value people’s opinions so much that you set aside your faith to fit in? You see so many Christians following the world’s way Monday through Saturday and then on Sunday it’s to follow Jesus. Today I pray that we all would seek the opinion of the Lord in all we do, in all we do try to please the Lord. The opinions of people are temporal, but the Lord’s opinion is for eternity…..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
“Better is one day in your courts than a thousand elsewhere; I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of the wicked.” Psalm 84 : 10
As a believer the personal relationship with the Lord is priceless. This Psalm speaks of spending one day with the Lord rather than a thousand elsewhere. When you have a personal relationship with Jesus and don’t spend time with him in fellowship, prayer would be like not talking to your husband or wife while they’re sitting right next to you, sooner or later the question will come up ” what’s wrong”. Today’s prayer is that we would take every opportunity to have lines of communication with Jesus for he is there 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
“So we have come to know and to believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.” 1 John 4 : 16 ESV
What the world is missing is “True Love” and what is the meaning of true love? True love is the love that God displayed for us by sending His Son, JESUS CHRIST to the cross for all of our sins. True love is to have the heart of a servant, to put others before yourself, to be kind in all circumstances. Today’s prayer is that we all would set aside all of the hustle of the world and slow down enough to recognize what love is and show it to 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
“TRUST GOD ENOUGH to let things happen without striving to predict or control them. Relax, and refresh yourself in the Light of GOD’S everlasting Love. GOD’S Love-Light never dims, yet you are often unaware of HIS radiant Presence. When you project yourself into the future, rehearsing what you will do or say, you are seeking to be self-sufficient: to be adequate without GOD’S help. This is a subtle sin—so common that it usually slips by unnoticed. The alternative is to live fully in the present, depending on GOD each moment. Rather than fearing your inadequacy, rejoice in GOD’S abundant supply. Train your mind to seek The LORD’S help continually, even when you feel competent to handle something by yourself. Don’t divide your life into things you can do by yourself and things that require GOD help. Instead, learn to rely on The LORD in every situation. This discipline will enable you to enjoy life more and to face each day confidently.”
Scripture
Trust in the LORD and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture. Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the LORD; trust in him and he will do this: He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn, the justice of your cause like the noonday sun. PSALM 37 : 3 – 6
And my God shall supply all your needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. PHILIPPIANS 4 : 19 (NKJV)
Prayer
Prayer: Lord, help me to refresh myself in your presence and walk hand in hand with you through the day, depending on you each moment. You are my rock, my shield, my comforter. In you I have all I need. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
“But the Spirit explicitly says that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons,” 1 Timothy 4 : 1 NASB
You see this at work more than ever today! The media, school, work place, all discourage you from being a Christian, it’s all about you being your own person. Some of the church is in this state today by not preaching the Living Word of GOD!!!!! They’re teaching self, self, self. Today’s prayer is that we would never be deceived by a false doctrine !!!!! If it’s not in GOD’s written Word then it is 100% the opinion of Man …… 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
“IN ORDER TO HEAR GOD’S VOICE, you must release all your worries into HIS care. Entrust to GOD everything that concerns you. This clears the way for you to seek The LORD’S Face unhindered. Let GOD free you from fear that is hiding deep inside you. Sit quietly in The LORD’S Presence, allowing HIS Light to soak into you and drive out any darkness lodged within you. Accept each day just as it comes to you, remembering that GOD is sovereign over your life. Rejoice in this day that GOD has made, trusting that The LORD is abundantly present in it. Instead of regretting or resenting the way things are, thank GOD in all circumstances. Trust GOD and don’t be fearful; thank GOD and rest in HIS sovereignty.”
Scripture
Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. 1 PETER 5 : 6 – 7
This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it. PSALM 118 : 24
Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. 1 THESSALONIANS 5 : 18
Prayer
Prayer: Lord, I long to hear your voice. Help me to release all my worries to you so I can free up my heart to hear your still small voice. Your presence is far greater than anything you give me. Help me to sit quietly with you, experiencing all of you. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
“Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you.” 1 Peter 5 : 7 NLT
It’s so hard to trust! The world has taught us if you have a problem you and only you can handle it. This scripture tells us to give GOD all our worries! Not some but all. God cares for us in a way that is indescribable and HE is faithful in HIS promise. Today’s prayer is that when troubles arise we hand them over to The LORD and have faith that HE will correct the situation ……… 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. The human mind cannot comprehend GOD’S constancy. Your emotions flicker and falter in the face of varying circumstances, and you tend to project your fickle feelings onto GOD. Thus, you do not benefit fully from The LORD’S unfailing Love. You need to look beyond the flux of circumstances and discover GOD gazing lovingly back at you. This awareness of The LORD’S Presence strengthens you, as you receive and respond to HIS Love. GOD is the same yesterday, today, and forever! Let The LORD’S Love flow into you continually. Your need for GOD is as constant as the outflow of HIS Love to you.”
Scripture
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
“In your unfailing love you will lead the people you have redeemed. In your strength you will guide them to your holy dwelling.” EXODUS 15 : 13
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. HEBREWS 13 : 8
Prayer
Prayer: God help me to comprehend how wide and long and high and deep your love is. Give me eyes to see others the way you see them. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
