This is the day the LORD has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it. Psalms 118:24 NLT
Good morning, that is a standard greeting right? Well it is a good morning no matter what the situation is. Look around at all the great things there are, sometimes we have to look through the ugly to get to the beauty. Today’s prayer is that we look at all the great things God has done for us, not the one or two problems that may be present…….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
“WAIT WITH GOD FOR A WHILE. GOD has much to tell you. You are walking along the path The LORD has chosen for you. It is both a privileged and a perilous way: experiencing GOD’S glorious Presence and heralding that reality to others. Sometimes you feel presumptuous to be carrying out such an assignment. Do not worry about what other people think of you. The work GOD is doing in you is hidden at first. But eventually blossoms will burst forth, and abundant fruit will be borne. Stay on the path of Life with GOD. Trust The LORD wholeheartedly, letting GOD’S Holy Spirit fill you with Joy and Peace.”
Scripture
“O LORD, God of Israel, there is no God like you in heaven above or on earth below—you who keep your covenant of love with your servants who continue wholeheartedly in your way.” 1 KINGS 8 : 23
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. GALATIANS 5 : 22 – 23
Prayer
Prayer: God help me to stay on the path of life with you. To trust you wholeheartedly, letting your Spirit fill me with joy and peace as I rest in you. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
“Teach me to do your will, for you are my God. May your gracious Spirit lead me forward on a firm footing.” Psalms 143:10 NLT
Oh to live constantly in God’s will. What a life that would be, as for me I try to do everything I can to please God in all I do and the sad part is I fail daily!!!! God’s grace is there for us as we fail and miss the mark. It’s up to us to put forth the effort to miss the mark less and less. Today’s prayer is that we would strive to live in God’s perfect will and live a life led by the spirit of God for he is perfect……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
“Look, I will come as unexpectedly as a thief! Blessed are all who are watching for me, who keep their clothing ready so they will not have to walk around naked and ashamed.” Revelation 16:15 NLT
More than ever it’s time to take our faith serious! Not just going to church on Sunday, or having a Bible on the nightstand it’s time to take our relationship with Jesus to another level. Today I pray that with all the trouble going on in the world that we would 100% have our trust in 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
“No weapon formed against you shall prosper, And every tongue which rises against you in judgment You shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, And their righteousness is from Me,” Says the LORD.” Isaiah 54:17 NKJV
There are so many things that are weapons! The most powerful one is the tongue, people will say hurtful things, condemning things, that can do some severe damage. As a Christian we are to understand that we are under attack by the things of the world, but Jesus is right there with us. Today’s prayer is that we would never retaliate with actions, but retaliate with kindness knowing that God has our back……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
“EXPECT TO ENCOUNTER ADVERSITY in your life, remembering that you live in a deeply fallen world. Stop trying to find a way that circumvents difficulties. The main problem with an easy life is that it masks your need for GOD. When you became a Christian, GOD infused HIS very Life into you, empowering you to live on a supernatural plane by depending on HIM. Anticipate coming face to face with impossibilities: situations totally beyond your ability to handle. This awareness of your inadequacy is not something you should try to evade. It is precisely where The LORD wants you — the best place to encounter GOD in HIS Glory and Power. When you see armies of problems marching toward you, cry out to GOD! Allow GOD to fight for you. Watch The LORD working on your behalf, as you rest in the shadow of GOD’S Almighty Presence.” After this I heard what sounded like the roar of a great multitude in heaven shouting: “Hallelujah! Salvation and glory and power belong to our God, . . .” REVELATION 19 : 1 He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. PSALM 91 : 1 Prayer: God, thank you for allowing me to be in situations beyond my capabilities so I can rely on you to fill in the gaps and fight my battles for me. Over and over you prove yourself faithful and trustworthy. Thank you for being my Lord and Savior. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
Under the old covenant, the priest stands and ministers before the altar day after day, offering the same sacrifices again and again, which can never take away sins. But our High Priest offered himself to God as a single sacrifice for sins, good for all time. Then he sat down in the place of honor at God’s right hand. There he waits until his enemies are humbled and made a footstool under his feet. For by that one offering he forever made perfect those who are being made holy. And the Holy Spirit also testifies that this is so. For he says, “This is the new covenant I will make with my people on that day, says the LORD : I will put my laws in their hearts, and I will write them on their minds.” Then he says, “I will never again remember their sins and lawless deeds.” And when sins have been forgiven, there is no need to offer any more sacrifices. Hebrews 10:11-18 NLT
This is a long one but ever so important, under the law we could never live up to the commandments, God knew this so he sent Jesus in the place of the law. In The Old Testament the priest gave sacrifices daily, but that did not forgive once and for all, the sacrifice of the Lamb of God however did!!!!!!! Today I pray that all would take up their place in Christ and live the life of victory that he died for…….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
“FIND GOD in the midst of the maelstrom. Sometimes events whirl around you so quickly that they become a blur. Whisper GOD’S Name in recognition that HE is still with you. Without skipping a beat in the activities that occupy you, you find strength and Peace through praying The LORD’S Name. Later, when the happenings have run their course, you can talk with GOD more fully. Accept each day just as it comes to you. Do not waste your time and energy wishing for a different set of circumstances. Instead, trust The LORD enough to yield to HIS design and purposes. Remember that nothing can separate you from GOD’S loving Presence; you are HIS.”
Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. PHILIPPIANS 2 : 9 – 11
But now, this is what the LORD says— he who created you, O Jacob, he who formed you, O Israel: “Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine. ISAIAH 43 : 1
Prayer: Lord, help me to whisper your name when things start to spin out of control so I can replace my anxious thoughts with your strength and peace. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
“Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted.” Galatians 6:1 NKJV
Are you free of sin? Are you ok to judge another for their actions? I believe not!!!!! This scripture speaks about lifting another with gentleness not condemnation!!!!! Because truth be known we all fall flat on our face daily!!!!! Today’s prayer is that we would humble ourselves at the foot of the cross and ask for God’s wisdom on how we can strengthen our walk along with uplifting our brothers and sisters……..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
“MEET GOD in early morning splendor. GOD eagerly awaits you there. In the stillness of this holy time with GOD, GOD renews your strength and saturates you with HIS Peace. While others turn over for extra sleep or anxiously tune in to the latest news, you commune with the Creator of the universe. GOD has awakened in your heart a strong desire to know HIM. This longing originated in GOD, though it now burns brightly in you. When you seek GOD’S Face in response to HIS Love-call, both of you are blessed. This is a deep mystery, designed more for your enjoyment than for your understanding. GOD is not a dour God who discourages pleasure. GOD delights in your enjoyment of everything that is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, admirable. Think on these things, and GOD’S Light in you will shine brighter day by day.”
Scripture
But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. ISAIAH 40 : 31
One thing I ask of the LORD, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple. PSALM 27 : 4
Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable— if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. PHILIPPIANS 4 : 8
Prayer
Prayer: Lord thank you for renewing my strength and soaking me in your peace when I spend time with you. Redirect my thoughts when needed. You are a good, good Father. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
