2 Corinthians 12:7-9

And lest I should be exalted above measure by the abundance of the revelations, a thorn in the flesh was given to me, a messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I be exalted above measure. Concerning this thing I pleaded with the Lord three times that it might depart from me. And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 2 Corinthians 12:7-9 NKJV

Do you have a thorn in your side? Or like many a whole rose bush, when trials come upon us it’s then we go to God in prayer, Paul pleaded with The Lord to remove this from him but instead God was saying where is your faith? Don’t you understand I will deliver you from your problem?. We tend to try to fix all of our problems instead of trusting that God has us in his hand, today rejoice when a problem comes your way, because The Lord’s promise is he will handle it!!!! His grace will always be sufficient ………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

DO NOT BE DISCOURAGED by the difficulty of keeping your focus on GOD. – ROMANS 8 : 33 – 34, HEBREWS 4 : 14 – 16

https://youtu.be/oRlnRDglqY4

“DO NOT BE DISCOURAGED by the difficulty of keeping your focus on GOD. GOD knows that your heart’s desire is to be aware of HIS Presence continually. This is a lofty goal; you aim toward it but never fully achieve it in this life. Don’t let feelings of failure weigh you down. Instead, try to see yourself as GOD sees you. First of all, GOD is delighted by your deep desire to walk closely with HIM through your life. GOD is pleased each time you initiate communication with HIM. In addition, The LORD notices the progress you have made since you first resolved to live in HIS Presence. When you realize that your mind has wandered away from The LORD, don’t be alarmed or surprised. You live in a world that has been rigged to distract you. Each time you plow your way through the massive distractions to communicate with GOD, you achieve a victory. Rejoice in these tiny triumphs, and they will increasingly light up your days.”

Scripture

Who will bring any charge against those whom God has chosen? It is God who justifies. Who is he that condemns? Christ Jesus, who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us. ROMANS 8 : 33 – 34

Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has gone through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess. For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet was without sin. Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need. HEBREWS 4 : 14 – 16

Prayer

Prayer: Jesus I am so grateful for your grace and patience. And because you lived on earth as man, you understand every temptation, distraction, and feeling I could ever have. I can come to you for every need. I rest in your loving arms. In Jesus’ precious name. Amen.

Numbers‬ ‭6‬:‭24-26

‘May the LORD bless you and protect you. May the LORD smile on you and be gracious to you. May the LORD show you his favor and give you his peace.’ Numbers‬ ‭6‬:‭24-26‬ NLT

LEARN TO LISTEN TO GOD even while you are listening to other people. – EXODUS 3 : 5, 1 CORINTHIANS 6 : 19, JOHN 7 : 38 – 39

https://youtu.be/A8SSkzb1zsQ

“LEARN TO LISTEN TO GOD even while you are listening to other people. As they open their souls to your scrutiny, you are on holy ground. You need the help of GOD’S Holy Spirit to respond appropriately. Ask GOD to think through you, live through you, love through you. GOD’S own Being is alive within you the Holy Spirit. If you respond to others’ needs through your unaided thought processes, you offer them dry crumbs. When the Holy Spirit empowers your listening and speaking, GOD’S streams of living water flow through you to other people. Be a channel of GOD’S Love, Joy, and Peace by listening to GOD as you listen to others.”

Scripture

“Do not come any closer,” God said. “Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground.” EXODUS 3 : 5

Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own. 1 CORINTHIANS 6 : 19

Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from within him.” By this he meant the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were later to receive. Up to that time the Spirit had not been given, since Jesus had not yet been glorified. JOHN 7 : 38 – 39

Prayer

Prayer: Lord thank you for your Holy Spirit who is God and knows everything about everything, past, present, and future – and who lives in me. Holy Spirit think through me, live through me, and love through me – help me to listen and speak what you tell me. Use me Lord to be an encouragement to others. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Lamentations‬ ‭3‬:‭22-23

The faithful love of the LORD never ends! His mercies never cease. Great is his faithfulness; his mercies begin afresh each morning. ‭Lamentations‬ ‭3‬:‭22-23‬ NLT

Today is a new day, every morning we get a fresh start. It may seem like the trials will never end but God is with us and his love and mercy never stop. Yesterday is gone, today is a new day. Today I pray that we would give God thanks for everyday and know that he will see us through…….Be Blessed

GOD IS WITH YOU. GOD is with you. GOD is with you. Heaven’s bells continually peal with that promise of GOD’S Presence. – JEREMIAH 29 : 12 – 13, JOHN 10 : 14, 27 – 28

https://youtu.be/oK1fJMcaIvA

“GOD IS WITH YOU. GOD is with you. GOD is with you. Heaven’s bells continually peal with that promise of GOD’S Presence. Some people never hear those bells because their minds are earthbound and their hearts are closed to HIM. Others hear the bells only once or twice in their lifetimes, in rare moments of seeking The LORD above all else. The LORD’S desire is that HIS “sheep” hear HIS voice continually, for The LORD is the ever-present Shepherd. Quietness is the classroom where you learn to hear GOD’S voice. Beginners need a quiet place in order to still their minds. As you advance in this discipline, you gradually learn to carry the stillness with you wherever you go. When you step back into the mainstream of life, strain to hear those glorious bells: GOD is with you. GOD is with you. GOD is with you.”

Scripture

Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. JEREMIAH 29 : 12 – 13

“I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me. . . . “My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of my hand.” JOHN 10 : 14, 27 – 28

Prayer

Prayer: God help me to set my mind on eternity today and hear your voice more often. Help me to prioritize finding a quiet place each day to still my mind and feel your presence with me, filling me with peace and joy that surpasses understanding. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

‭Romans‬ ‭15‬:‭13‬

I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in him. Then you will overflow with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit. ‭Romans‬ ‭15‬:‭13‬ NLT

Are you feeling anxious about something? Praying for change in your life? In this scripture Paul writes about hope through the power of the spirit. As human nature is, we always want to try to figure out WHY!!!! And I believe sometimes it benefits us not to know. Today I pray that we would seek the guidance of the Holy Spirit and trust in the hope that God has given us…..Be Blessed

Romans 12:1 – 2

beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. Romans 12:1 – 2 NKJV

Paul says I bring to you, by the mercies of God. Too many Christians are going to God trying to make him perform by their works, we should be thanking him for his mercy…… Today I pray that we all would renew our minds daily, and embrace God’s mercy for 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

AS YOU BECOME increasingly aware of GOD’S Presence, you find it easier to discern the way you should go. – PSALM 32 : 8, GENESIS 1 : 1

https://youtu.be/jQlFpQ4yNa4

“AS YOU BECOME increasingly aware of GOD’S Presence, you find it easier to discern the way you should go. This is one of the practical benefits of living close to GOD. Instead of wondering about what is on the road ahead or worrying about what you should do if . . . or when . . ., you can concentrate on staying in communication with The LORD. When you actually arrive at a choice-point, GOD will show you which direction to go. Many people are so preoccupied with future plans and decisions that they fail to see choices they need to make today. Without any conscious awareness, they make their habitual responses. People who live this way find a dullness creeping into their lives. They sleepwalk through their days, following well-worn paths of routine. GOD, the Creator of the universe, is the most creative Being imaginable. GOD will not leave you circling in deeply rutted paths. Instead, The LORD will lead you along fresh trails of adventure, revealing to you things you did not know. Stay in communication with GOD. Follow GOD’S guiding Presence.”

Scripture

I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you and watch over you. PSALM 32 : 8

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. GENESIS 1 : 1

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, help me to concentrate on staying in communication with you so I can learn to hear your voice more clearly and discern the way to go. Help me to let go of the unknowns in the future and focus on what you have for me today. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
