Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. Point out anything in me that offends you, and lead me along the path of everlasting life. ‭Psalms‬ ‭139‬ :‭ 23 – 24‬ NLT

TRUST GOD AND REFUSE TO WORRY, for GOD is your Strength and Song. | EXODUS 15 : 2, 2 CORINTHIANS 10 : 5, HEBREWS 10 : 23

https://youtu.be/Geb4-oW6wsI

“TRUST GOD AND REFUSE TO WORRY, for GOD is your Strength and Song. You are feeling wobbly this morning, looking at difficult times looming ahead, measuring them against your own strength. However, they are not today’s tasks—or even tomorrow’s. So leave them in the future and come home to the present, where you will find GOD waiting for you. Since The LORD your Strength, HE empowers you to handle each task as it comes. Because The LORD is your Song, HE gives you Joy as you work alongside HIM. Keep bringing your mind back to the present moment. Among all GOD’S creatures, only humans can anticipate future events. This ability is a blessing, but it becomes a curse whenever it is misused. If you use your magnificent mind to worry about tomorrow, you cloak yourself in dark unbelief. However, when the hope of heaven fills your thoughts, the Light of The LORD’S Presence envelops you. Though heaven is the future, it is also present tense. As you walk in the Light with GOD, you have one foot on earth and one foot in heaven.”

Scripture

The LORD is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation. He is my God, and I will praise him, my father’s God, and I will exalt him. EXODUS 15 : 2 

We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. 2 CORINTHIANS 10 : 5 

Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful. HEBREWS 10 : 23

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, help me stop worrying about tomorrow and trust You with today. Give me the strength I need for what’s in front of me and fill me with joy as I walk through it with You. Amen.

Romans‬ ‭15  :13‬

“May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭15  :13‬ ‭NIV‬‬

So many things happen in our day to day life it can be easy to become discouraged and lose hope. Jesus Christ left us the one called the counselor to know how to deal with situations like Jesus Christ, HE left us the one called the comforter to never lose hope, He left us the Holy Spirit to direct every step of our lives if we allow HIM to. Today’s prayer is that we would understand that Jesus Christ overcame what we couldn’t overcome and left us the one who can get us through life with that great hope …… 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

TRY TO SEE THINGS more and more from GOD’S perspective. | PROVERBS 20 : 24, 2 CORINTHIANS 4 : 17 – 18

https://youtu.be/PDme0GI3Q-c

“TRY TO SEE THINGS more and more from GOD’S perspective. Let the Light of GOD’S Presence so fully fill your mind that you view the world through HIM. When little things don’t go as you had hoped, look to GOD lightheartedly and say, “Oh, well.” This simple discipline can protect you from being burdened with an accumulation of petty cares and frustrations. If you practice this diligently, you will make a life-changing discovery: You realize that most of the things that worry you are not important. If you shrug them off immediately and return your focus to The LORD, you will walk through your days with lighter steps and a joyful heart. When serious problems come your way, you will have more reserves for dealing with them. You will not have squandered your energy on petty problems. You may even reach the point where you can agree with the apostle Paul that all your troubles are light and momentary, compared with the eternal glory being achieved by them.”

Scripture

A man’s steps are directed by the LORD. How then can anyone understand his own way? PROVERBS 20 : 24  

For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. 2 CORINTHIANS 4 : 17 – 18

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, help me to see my problems from your perspective, remembering they are temporary and each trial can draw me closer to you. Help me to keep my eyes fixed on you and to keep eternity in mind, where there will be no more pain, suffering, or trials of any kind. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Proverbs‬ ‭27 : 17

“As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.” ‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭27 : 17‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Are you encouraging your brothers and sisters in Christ or discouraging them? One of the biggest attributes of the Church is encouragement. When a brother or sister needs help, direction, discernment, or just encouragement make sure to be there for them. Today’s prayer is that we would keep each other sharp and focused on the advancement of God’s kingdom ……. Be Blessed

John 16 : 33

These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” John 16 : 33 NKJV

This is very simple!!!!!! In the toughest times of your life, when you feel like you’re going to break, when you just want to give up, remember GOD’S word and cheer up!!!!! HE is always with us seeing us through those times. GOD said HE will never leave nor forsake us!!!!! GOD said never! …… so remember that today when a trial arises GOD is right there to handle the battle for you …….. Be blessed

John‬ ‭14 : 25 – 26

““These things I have spoken to you while being present with you. But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.” ‭‭John‬ ‭14 : 25 – 26‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

So many opinions on the Holy Spirit!!! Why would there be opinions if Jesus Christ spoke of HIS coming? The truth is the Holy Spirit is alive today more than ever! HE is there to teach us, help us , and most importantly convict us of our righteousness in Jesus Christ. Today’s prayer is that we would really understand the third person of the Trinity and pray for HIS presence to overflow in our lives …… 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

SEEK TO PLEASE GOD above all else. | MATTHEW 6 : 33 , JOHN 8 : 29, COLOSSIANS 3 : 23 – 24

https://youtu.be/9IyLfZwQZkM

“SEEK TO PLEASE GOD above all else. Let that goal be your focal point as you go through this day. Such a mind-set will protect you from scattering your energy to the winds. The free will GOD bestowed on you comes with awesome responsibility. Each day presents you with choice after choice. Many of these decisions you ignore and thus make by default. Without a focal point to guide you, you can easily lose your way. That’s why it is so important to stay in communication with GOD, living in thankful awareness of HIS Presence. You inhabit a fallen, disjointed world, where things are constantly unraveling around the edges. Only a vibrant relationship with GOD can keep you from coming unraveled to.”

Scripture

“But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.” MATTHEW 6 : 33 

“The one who sent me is with me; he has not left me alone, for I always do what pleases him.” JOHN 8 : 29 

Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving. COLOSSIANS 3 : 23 – 24

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, I want to seek to please you above all else. Protect me from scattering my energy to the wind. Help me to do everything as if working for you. To be a spouse of excellence, a parent of excellence, and a friend of excellence – with your help. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Psalms‬ ‭11 : 7‬

“For the LORD is righteous, He loves righteousness; His countenance beholds the upright.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭11 : 7‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Oh to be pleasing to GOD, HE loves when we become more like HIS Son. JESUS CHRIST. The way we think determines the way we act, for example if we look at the negative in all situations we will become negative, if we look at the positives we will become positive. Today’s prayer is that we would be bright witnesses to the positive change of having JESUS CHRIST as the cornerstone in our lives and let all know it’s waiting for them as well ……. Be Blessed

YOU WILL NOT FIND GOD’S PEACE by engaging in excessive planning |  PETER 5 : 6 – 7, PROVERBS 16 : 9, PSALM 37 : 5

https://youtu.be/dehICQDDdOg

“YOU WILL NOT FIND GOD’S PEACE by engaging in excessive planning: attempting to control what will happen to you in the future. That is a commonly practiced form of unbelief. When your mind spins with multiple plans, Peace may sometimes seem to be within your grasp; yet it always eludes you. Just when you think you have prepared for all possibilities, something unexpected pops up and throws things into confusion. GOD did not design the human mind to figure out the future. That is beyond your capability. GOD crafted your mind for continual communication with HIM. Bring The LORD all your needs, your hopes and fears. Commit everything into The LORD’S care. Turn from the path of planning to the path of Peace.”

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 

In his heart a man plans his course, but the LORD determines his steps. PROVERBS 16 : 9 

Commit your way to the LORD, Trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass. PSALM 37 : 5 (NKJV)

Prayer: God I bring you all my needs, my hopes, and my fears. I lay them at the cross. I commit them into your care. Help me to turn from the path of excessive planning to excessive peace. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
