WHEN GOD GIVES YOU no special guidance, stay where you are. | COLOSSIANS 3 : 23, JOHN 15 : 5, PSALM 105 : 4

“WHEN GOD GIVES YOU no special guidance, stay where you are. Concentrate on doing your everyday tasks in awareness of GOD’S Presence with you. The Joy of The LORD’S Presence will shine on you, as you do everything for HIM. Thus you invite GOD into every aspect of your life. Through collaborating with GOD in all things, you allow HIS Life to merge with yours. This is the secret not only of joyful living but also of victorious living. GOD designed you to depend on HIM moment by moment, recognizing that apart from GOD you can do nothing. Be thankful for quiet days, when nothing special seems to be happening. Instead of being bored by the lack of action, use times of routine to seek The LORD’S Face. Although this is an invisible transaction, it speaks volumes in spiritual realms. Moreover, you are richly blessed when you walk trustingly with GOD through the routines of your day.”

Scripture

Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men. COLOSSIANS 3 : 23

“I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.” JOHN 15 : 5

Look to the LORD and his strength; seek his face always. PSALM 105 : 4

Prayer

Prayer: Lord help me to concentrate on my everyday tasks in awareness of your presence with me. And to abide in you while you prune away anything that doesn’t look like Jesus. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Romans‬ ‭12‬ :‭ 12‬

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

This scripture lays out a great foundation to live by. To be joyful in hope is to look to our end results in JESUS CHRIST, to be patient in affliction is to know that without a doubt The LORD will show up to correct the situation, and to be faithful in prayer means to always have a open line of communication with The LORD. Today I pray that we would all use this scripture as a foundation to live our lives by ……. 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

​HEAVEN IS both present and future. | 1 CORINTHIANS 15 : 20 – 23, HEBREWS 6 : 19

https://youtu.be/lIPs6-BTTrs

“HEAVEN IS both present and future. As you walk along your life-path holding GOD’S hand, you are already in touch with the essence of heaven: nearness to GOD. You can also find many hints of heaven along your pathway, because the earth is radiantly alive with The LORD’S Presence. Shimmering sunshine awakens your heart, gently reminding you of GOD’S brilliant Light. Birds and flowers, trees and skies evoke praises to GOD’S Holy Name. Keep your eyes and ears fully open as you journey with The LORD. At the end of your life-path is an entrance to heaven. Only GOD knows when you will reach that destination, but HE is preparing you for it each step of the way. The absolute certainty of your heavenly home gives you Peace and Joy, to help you along your journey. You know that you will reach your home in GOD’S perfect timing: not one moment too soon or too late. Let the hope of heaven encourage you, as you walk along the path of Life with GOD.”

Scripture

But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man. For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive. But each in his own turn: Christ, the firstfruits; then, when he comes, those who belong to him. 1 CORINTHIANS 15 : 20 – 23 

We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain. HEBREWS 6 : 19

Prayer

Prayer: Lord thank you for the absolute certainty of my Heavenly home. Without Jesus’ covering my sins, that would not be possible. Thank you, thank you sweet Jesus. Help me to enjoy today’s journey because I know my future is secure. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

TRUST GOD IN EVERY DETAIL OF YOUR LIFE. | JEREMIAH 17 : 7, ROMANS 8 : 28,PSALM 40 : 2, 1 PETER 2 : 9

https://youtu.be/rJ4oCUDCWlo

“TRUST GOD IN EVERY DETAIL OF YOUR LIFE. Nothing is random in GOD’S kingdom. Everything that happens fits into a pattern for good, to those who love The LORD. Instead of trying to analyze the intricacies of the pattern, focus your energy on trusting GOD and thanking GOD at all times. Nothing is wasted when you walk close to GOD. Even your mistakes and sins can be recycled into something good, through GOD’S transforming grace. While you were still living in darkness, The LORD began to shine the Light of HIS Presence into your sin-stained life. Finally, The LORD lifted you up out of the mire into HIS marvelous Light. Having sacrificed HIS very Life for you, The LORD can be trusted in every facet of your life.”

Scripture

“But blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD, whose confidence is in him.” JEREMIAH 17 : 7 

And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. ROMANS 8 : 28

He drew me up out of a horrible pit [a pit of tumult and of destruction], out of the miry clay (froth and slime), and set my feet upon a rock, steadying my steps and establishing my goings. PSALM 40 : 2 

But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light. 1 PETER 2 : 9 (NKJV)

Prayer

Prayer: God there is such hope knowing that even though I still mess up, you died for that sin also and you recycle my mistakes and sin into something good. Transform me by the renewing of my mind to be more like Christ this week. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Isaiah‬ ‭40 : 28 – 31‬

“Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; 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 : 28 – 31‬ ‭NIV‬‬

We all know and we have all heard but do we choose to believe or disbelieve? GOD’S Word is an everlasting truth! It never fails. There are times that we all feel like giving in, but that’s when we run to GOD not walk. GOD is faithful to those who diligently seek HIS refuge. Today’s prayer that in the good and bad times we seek GOD for HIS guidance and peace …… Be Blessed

Ecclesiastes‬ ‭7:  8‬

“The end of a thing is better than its beginning; The patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit.” Ecclesiastes‬ ‭7:  8‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Have you ever noticed how most things finish better than they start if we have patience? Do you ever get the I want it now attitude? Well I know I have fallen into this trap and made a mess of many things. This scripture paints a clear picture that good things come to those who wait. The best we have to look forward too is The LORD’S return. Today’s prayer is that we would all pray for patience and in the process be humble. …… 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: 1 7

Galatians‬ ‭6 : 3 – 5‬

“If anyone thinks they are something when they are not, they deceive themselves. Each one should test their own actions. Then they can take pride in themselves alone, without comparing themselves to someone else, for each one should carry their own load.” ‭‭Galatians‬ ‭6 : 3 – 5‬ ‭NIV‬‬

How’s your JESUS CHRIST shining? Are you showing the ways of The LORD or the ways of the world?. In the world today we measure ourselves by the other person, when in actuality we should always measure ourselves on how much JESUS CHRIST we are showing. Today’s prayer is that we would never compare ourselves to one another, but only measure ourselves to The Lord of Lords …….. 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

LET GOD FILL YOU with HIS Love, Joy, and Peace.| 2 CORINTHIANS 4 : 7, ISAIAH 30 : 15

https://youtu.be/-o9af7jH6iA

“LET GOD FILL YOU with HIS Love, Joy, and Peace. These are Glory-gifts, flowing from GOD’S living Presence. Though you are an earthen vessel, GOD designed you to be filled with heavenly contents. Your weakness is not a deterrent to being filled with HIS Holy Spirit; on the contrary, it provides an opportunity for GOD’S Power to shine forth more brightly. As you go through this day, trust GOD to provide the strength that you need moment by moment. Don’t waste energy wondering whether you are adequate for today’s journey. GOD’S Holy Spirit within you is more than sufficient to handle whatever this day may bring. That is the basis for your confidence! In quietness (spending time alone with GOD) and confident trust (relying on GOD’S sufficiency) is your strength.”

Scripture

But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us. 2 CORINTHIANS 4 : 7 (NKJV) 

This is what the Sovereign LORD, the Holy One of Israel, says: “In repentance and rest is your salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength, but you would have none of it.” ISAIAH 30 : 15

Prayer

Prayer: Jesus, fill me with Your Love, Joy, and Peace today—gifts only You can give. Help me not to worry about my own strength, but to trust in Yours, knowing that Your Spirit in me is more than enough. Let my weakness be the place where Your glory shines brightest. Amen.
