2 Thessalonians‬ ‭2 : 16 – 17‬ ‭

“Now may our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who loved us and by his grace gave us eternal comfort and a wonderful hope, comfort you and strengthen you in every good thing you do and say.” ‭‭2 Thessalonians‬ ‭2:16-17‬ ‭

Are you feeling down, stressed, alone today? There is a great comfort in our Lord Jesus, he has given us an eternal promise that will never fail. Today’s prayer is that we would rest in the comfort of our savior and realize man will fail us but Jesus never will, he is always there for us……..Be Blessed and turn to Jesus

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

NEVER TAKE FOR GRANTED GOD’S intimate nearness. – LUKE 12 : 7, JOHN 1 : 12, ROMANS 10 : 13

“NEVER TAKE FOR GRANTED GOD’S intimate nearness. Marvel at the wonder of GOD’S continual Presence with you. Even the most ardent human lover cannot be with you always. Nor can another person know the intimacies of your heart, mind, and spirit. GOD knows everything about you— even to the number of hairs on your head. You don’t need to work at revealing yourself to GOD. Many people spend a lifetime or a small fortune searching for someone who understands them. Yet GOD is freely available to all who call upon HIS Name, who open their hearts to receive GOD as Savior. This simple act of faith is the beginning of a lifelong love story. GOD, the Lover of your soul, understands you perfectly and love you eternally.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows. LUKE 12 : 7

Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God. JOHN 1 : 12

“Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” ROMANS 10 : 13

Prayer: Lord thank you for your intimate nearness and your continual presence with me. I’m in awe the creator of the universe wants to be in an intimate relationship with me. Thank you for speaking to me continually. Help me to listen and then obey. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Ephesians‬ ‭3‬:‭20

Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. (‭Ephesians‬ ‭3‬:‭20‬ NLT)

Are great things happening in your life? Do you accomplish things that you never thought you could?are you blessed beyond words? And the key, are you giving all the glory to God or taking all the credit yourself? Today I pray that we would recognize God in all of our victories and blessings and thank him continuously in all things…….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

2 Corinthians 7:6

Paul here makes a general observation and then shares a specific testimony. First, he says, God comforts those who are cast down.

Over and over in Scripture we are reminded that it is precisely those who have fallen on their face before God who will be lifted up. It is the humble who will be exalted, and it is those who lose their life who will find it.

God, it seems, delights to show his abounding sufficiency in the weakness and shortcomings of his people. Therefore, we can rest assured that God will come to those who are spiritually cast down and will lift them up by his grace.

Paul further offers this, not only as a general observation concerning the goodness of God, but as a particular experience of his own life. This was, in other words, not a theoretical contention for Paul. “God comforts the disheartened,” Paul says; “I know, because He has comforted me.”

Paul himself knew what it was to be cast down, to be discouraged, to have doubts and fears. Believer, perhaps you have been thinking you are the only one who wrestles with such obstacles to joy. Not so… every Christian must learn over and again to live by faith, and not by sight.

When we do so, and look to Christ for our sufficiency, our experience will be the same as Paul’s — God will comfort us, as he does all who are cast down.

WORSHIP GOD ONLY. – 1 TIMOTHY 6 : 15 – 16, ISAIAH 55 : 8 – 9, REVELATION 2 : 4, MATTHEW 11 : 28

https://youtu.be/QIK3h8611n0

“WORSHIP GOD ONLY. GOD is King of kings and Lord of lords, dwelling in unapproachable Light. The LORD is taking care of you! GOD is not only committed to caring for you, but HE is also absolutely capable of doing so. Rest in The LORD for you are HIS weary one, for this is a form of worship. Though self-flagellation has gone out of style, many of GOD’S children drive themselves like racehorses. They whip themselves into action, ignoring how exhausted they are. They forget that GOD is sovereign and that HIS ways are higher than theirs. Underneath their driven service, they may secretly resent GOD as a harsh taskmaster. Their worship of GOD is lukewarm, because HE is no longer their First Love. GOD’S invitation never changes: Come to GOD, all you who are weary, and HE will give you rest. Worship GOD by resting peacefully in HIS Presence.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

. . . which God will bring about in his own time—God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords, who alone is immortal and who lives in unapproachable light, whom no one has seen or can see. To him be honor and might forever. Amen. 1 TIMOTHY 6 : 15 – 16

“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the LORD. “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.” ISAIAH 55 : 8 – 9

Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken your first love. REVELATION 2 : 4

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” MATTHEW 11 : 28

Prayer: Lord search my heart and show me any offensive way in me, show me anything I am putting before you. I want to put you first place in my life and you promise when I do everything else will fall into place. Help me to trust your timing. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Colossians‬ ‭4:2‬

“Be persistent in prayer, and keep alert as you pray, giving thanks to God.”
‭‭Colossians‬ ‭4:2‬ ‭GNT‬‬

How’s your prayer life? Are your lines of communication open to God? Do you go to the Lord in all situations, or just when you need something? Today’s prayer is that we would take all things to the Lord in prayer, if you don’t have a problem telling someone else what’s going on why would you not talk to your Heavenly Father even more……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 PERPETUALLY WITH YOU, taking care of you. – MATTHEW 6 : 34, JOHN 10 : 10, JAMES 4 : 13 – 15

“GOD IS PERPETUALLY WITH YOU, taking care of you. That is the most important fact of your existence. GOD is not limited by time or space; The LORD’S Presence with you is a forever-promise. You need not fear the future, for GOD is already there. When you make that quantum leap into eternity, you will find GOD awaiting you in heaven. Your future is in GOD’S hands; HE releases it to you day by day, moment by moment. Therefore, do not worry about tomorrow. The LORD wants you to live this day abundantly, seeing all there is to see, doing all there is to do. Don’t be distracted by future concerns. Leave them to GOD! Each day of life is a glorious gift, but so few people know how to live within the confines of today. Much of their energy for abundant living spills over the time line into tomorrow’s worries or past regrets. Their remaining energy is sufficient only for limping through the day, not for living it to the full. The LORD is training you to keep your focus on HIS Presence in the present. This is how to receive abundant Life, which flows freely from GOD’S throne of grace.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. MATTHEW 6 : 34

“The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” JOHN 10 : 10

Now listen, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money.” Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. Instead, you ought to say, “If it is the Lord’s will, we will live and do this or that.” JAMES 4 : 13 – 15

Prayer: Lord help me to live today abundantly and focus on your presence in the present. Help me not to worry about tomorrow, and instead live today enjoying the blessings you’ve already given me and sharing them with others.

2 John‬ ‭1:3‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

“Grace, mercy, and peace will be with you from God the Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.” 2 John‬ ‭1:3‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

How reassuring is it too know that God is with us? Through the deaths, through the trials, through the not getting the promotion, through the failed relationship! He is with us and for us and will always restore us!!! Today’s prayer is that no matter what comes against us we would know that God is for us and with 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

GOD IS WITH YOU and all around you, encircling you in golden rays of Light. – PSALM 34 : 4 – 7, 2 PETER 1 : 16 – 17, JOHN 17 : 3, PSALM 139 : 14

“GOD IS WITH YOU and all around you, encircling you in golden rays of Light. GOD always beholds you Face to face. Not one of your thoughts escapes The LORD’S notice. Because GOD is infinite, HE is able to love you as if you and HE were the only ones in the universe. Walk with GOD in intimate Love-steps, but do not lose sight of HIS Majesty. GOD desires to be your closest Friend, yet GOD is also your sovereign Lord. GOD created your brain with capacity to know HIM as Friend and Lord simultaneously. The human mind is the pinnacle of The LORD’S creation, but so few use it for its primary purpose—-knowing HIM. GOD communicates continually through HIS Holy Spirit, HIS Word, and HIS creation. Only humans are capable of receiving GOD and responding to HIS Presence.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

You are indeed fearfully and wonderfully made! I sought the LORD, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears. Those who look to him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame. This poor man called, and the LORD heard him; he saved him out of all his troubles. The angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear him, and he delivers them. PSALM 34 : 4 – 7

We did not follow cleverly invented stories when we told you about the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty. For he received honor and glory from God the Father when the voice came to him from the Majestic Glory, saying, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.” 2 PETER 1 : 16 – 17

Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent. JOHN 17 : 3

I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. PSALM 139 : 14

Prayer: Lord thank you for loving me as if you and I were the only ones in the universe. You are my closest friend and my sovereign Lord. I’m in awe of your goodness. Thank you for speaking to me through Your Holy Spirit, Your word, and Your creation. Attune my heart and ears to hear and then obey you. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Romans‬ ‭1:25‬

“They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭1:25‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Opinions, Theory’s, and unbelief are running rampant in the world today. Take for example the Atheist they spend all there life trying to prove the non existent of a God they don’t believe in, hmmmm. God is a all loving God, a living God and he gives us a choice, Believe or Don’t!!!!! Today’s prayer is that before every last person takes there last breath ( that was given to them by the one true God) they would open there eyes to the truth……Salvation is for all…..Be Blessed
