Proverbs‬ ‭23:26

“O my son, give me your heart. May your eyes take delight in following my ways.” ‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭23:26‬ ‭NLT‬‬

The day you gave your heart to Jesus life truly began. The day you gave your life to the Lord you were so full of joy, so full of doing what was right in the Lord’s eyes, are you still that committed or have you changed? The Lord says he delights in following his ways and so should we. Today’s prayer is that we would all do a “once over” and check our condition. Are we more on fire or have our flames dwindled to smoke…… Be Blessed and light that fire back up

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

EVERY TIME YOU AFFIRM YOUR TRUST IN GOD, you put a coin into HIS treasury. – PSALM 56 : 3 – 4, MATTHEW 6 : 20 – 21

“EVERY TIME YOU AFFIRM YOUR TRUST IN GOD, you put a coin into HIS treasury. Thus you build up equity in preparation for days of trouble. The LORD keeps safely in HIS heart all trust invested in HIM, with interest compounded continuously. The more you trust GOD, the more HE empowers you to do so. Practice trusting The LORD during quiet days, when nothing much seems to be happening. Then when storms come, your trust balance will be sufficient to see you through. Store up for yourself treasure in heaven, through placing your trust in GOD. This practice will keep you in The LORD’S Peace.”

Scripture

When I am afraid, I will trust in you. In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I will not be afraid. What can mortal man do to me? PSALM 56 : 3 – 4

But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. MATTHEW 6 : 20 – 21

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, I declare my trust in you. Though winds and storms may come I will stand firm on your good and trustworthy promises. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

‭Isaiah‬ ‭41‬:‭10‬

Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand. ‭Isaiah‬ ‭41‬:‭10‬ NLT

Are you feeling defeated today? Do you feel like you are in a hole so deep you will never get out? God’s promise is that he has the situation, we may not see a way but God has all the ways. Today I pray that we would put our trust in the Lord and understand that his ways are not our ways most of the time……….. Be Blessed and Trust in the Lord

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 FOR YOU. – ROMANS 8 : 31, PSALM 46 : 1 – 3, LUKE 1 : 37

“GOD IS WITH YOU AND FOR YOU. When you decide on a course of action that is in line with GOD’S will, nothing in heaven or on earth can stop you. You may encounter many obstacles as you move toward your goal, but don’t be discouraged—never give up! With GOD’S help, you can overcome any obstacle. Do not expect an easy path as you journey hand in hand with The LORD, but do remember that GOD, your very-present Helper, is omnipotent. Much, much stress results from your wanting to make things happen before their times have come. One of the main ways The LORD asserts HIS sovereignty is in the timing of events. If you want to stay close to GOD and do things HIS way, ask The LORD to show you the path forward moment by moment. Instead of dashing headlong toward your goal, let GOD set the pace. Slow down, and enjoy the journey in The LORD’S Presence.”

Scripture

What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us? ROMANS 8 : 31

God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, Even though the earth be removed, And though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; Though its waters roar and be troubled, Though the mountains shake with its swelling. PSALM 46 : 1 – 3 (NKJV)

“For nothing is impossible with God.” LUKE 1 : 37

Prayer

Prayer: Lord thank you for reminding me when the desires of my heart are in line with your will, nothing in heaven or on earth can stop it from happening. Show me the path forward, moment by moment. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

John‬ ‭17‬:‭22-23‬

“I have given them the glory you gave me, so they may be one as we are one. I am in them and you are in me. May they experience such perfect unity that the world will know that you sent me and that you love them as much as you love me. John‬ ‭17‬:‭22-23‬ NLT

Jesus said he gave us perfect unity so that our witness will be different from the world, how is your witness working out? Do you respond to situations like someone who doesn’t know Jesus? Or do you respond on the values of the promise he gave us? Today I pray that our responses would be filled with faith and on the foundation of God’s living word and 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

SOFTLY GOD ANNOUNCES HIS PRESENCE. – PSALM 46 : 1, ROMANS 12 : 12, ROMANS 15 : 13

​”SOFTLY GOD ANNOUNCES HIS PRESENCE. Shimmering hues of radiance tap gently at your consciousness, seeking entrance. Though GOD has all Power in heaven and on earth, GOD is infinitely tender with you. The weaker you are, the more gently The LORD approaches you. Let your weakness be a door to GOD’S Presence. Whenever you feel inadequate, remember that The LORD is your ever-present Help. Hope in GOD, and you will be protected from depression and self-pity. Hope is like a golden cord connecting you to heaven. The more you cling to this cord, the more GOD bears the weight of your burdens; thus, you are lightened. Heaviness is not of The LORD’S kingdom. Cling to hope, and GOD’S rays of Light will reach you through the darkness.”

Scripture

God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. PSALM 46 : 1

Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. ROMANS 12 : 12

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

Prayer

Prayer: Lord I am amazed that although you have all power on heaven and earth yet you are so tender and patient with me. When I forget to give my burdens to you, you gently remind me you never intended for me to carry them. I give them to you today. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

‭Romans‬ ‭12‬:‭12

Rejoice in our confident hope. Be patient in trouble, and keep on praying. ‭Romans‬ ‭12‬:‭12‬ NLT

Is prayer your first choice or your last resort? Are you looking for help everywhere and when it doesn’t show up you say ” well all I can do now is pray” you have it totally backwards!!!!!! The Bible says pray without ceasing, in everything give thanksgiving and prayer. Well today I pray that our response to everything would be in prayer and thanksgiving ……. Be Blessed and Pray Hard

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

2 Timothy‬ ‭4:7-8‬

“I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day—and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing.” ‭‭2 Timothy‬ ‭4:7-8‬ ‭NIV‬‬

All that we do in life should be unto the Lord and not to ourselves. I believe that God wants us to live a joyful and prosperous life, but giving all the glory to him. Today’s prayer is that we would all do everything unto the Lord so he receives all the glory and we receive the crowns……..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

    John‬ ‭10‬:‭10‬

    The thief’s purpose is to steal and kill and destroy. My purpose is to give them a rich and satisfying life. ‭John‬ ‭10‬:‭10‬ NLT

    Are you letting someone or something steal your joy? Are you letting the circumstance control you? Well don’t!!! The devil works in and through many situations so let your joy always trump the situation. Today I pray that our attitudes will always look to the blessings we experience everyday and not the temporary problems……In Jesus Name 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

    YOU CAN ACHIEVE THE VICTORIOUS LIFE through living in deep dependence on GOD. – PSALM 34 : 17– 18, 2 CORINTHIANS 5 : 7

    “YOU CAN ACHIEVE THE VICTORIOUS LIFE through living in deep dependence on GOD. People usually associate victory with success: not falling or stumbling, not making mistakes. But those who are successful in their own strength tend to go their own way, forgetting about GOD. It is through problems and failure, weakness and neediness that you learn to rely on The LORD. True dependence is not simply asking GOD to bless what you have decided to do. It is coming to GOD with an open mind and heart, inviting The LORD to plant HIS desires within you. The LORD may infuse within you a dream that seems far beyond your reach. You know that in yourself you cannot achieve such a goal. Thus begins your journey of profound reliance on GOD. It is a faith-walk, taken one step at a time, leaning on GOD as much as you need. This is not a path of continual success but of multiple failures. However, each failure is followed by a growth spurt, nourished by increased reliance on The LORD. Enjoy the blessedness of a victorious life, through deepening your dependence on GOD.”

    Scripture

    The righteous cry out, and the LORD hears them; he delivers them from all their troubles. The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. PSALM 34 : 17– 18

    For we walk by faith, not by sight. 2 CORINTHIANS 5 : 7 (NKJV)

    Prayer

    Prayer: Lord help me to live in deeper dependence on you this year. Plant your desires within me and help me surrender my plans to yours and walk with you one step at a time. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
