GOD IS THE RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE; all lasting Life emanates from GOD. – JOHN 11 : 25, MATTHEW 11 : 28 – 29, 1 PETER 1 : 8 – 9

“GOD IS THE RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE; all lasting Life emanates from GOD. People search for life in many wrong ways: chasing after fleeting pleasures, accumulating possessions and wealth, trying to deny the inevitable effects of aging. Meanwhile, GOD freely offers abundant Life to everyone who turns toward HIM. As you come to GOD and take HIS yoke upon you, The LORD fills you with HIS very Life. This is how GOD chooses to live in the world and accomplish HIS purposes. This is also how The LORD blesses you with Joy unspeakable and full of Glory. The Joy is GOD’S, and the Glory is GOD’S; but GOD bestows them on you as you live in HIS Presence, inviting HIM to live fully in you.”

Scripture

Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies.” JOHN 11 : 25

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.” MATTHEW 11 : 28 – 29

Though you have not seen him, you love him. Though you do not now see him, you believe in him and rejoice with joy that is inexpressible and filled with glory, obtaining the outcome of your faith, the salvation of your souls. 1 PETER 1 : 8 – 9

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, You are the Resurrection and the Life, and true abundance is found only in You. Help me to turn away from the empty pursuits of this world and embrace the fullness of life You freely offer. Fill me with Your joy and presence, that I may live for Your glory. Amen.

1 John 1 : 5 – 7

This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin. 1 John 1 : 5 – 7 NKJV

It is so important as Christian’ to let our light shine, it is so easy when trials arise to shut the light off and let the dark show and that is exactly what the devil wants. To have true fellowship with The Lord is defined by our actions, remember non believers and some believers are watching what we do under the gun. Today I pray that we all will let our light shine to the glory of God, for he created light and he is light ……….. 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

Genesis‬ ‭4 : 3 – 7‬

“And in the process of time it came to pass that Cain brought an offering of the fruit of the ground to the LORD. Abel also brought of the firstborn of his flock and of their fat. And the LORD respected Abel and his offering, but He did not respect Cain and his offering. And Cain was very angry, and his countenance fell. So the LORD said to Cain, “Why are you angry? And why has your countenance fallen? If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin lies at the door. And its desire is for you, but you should rule over it.”” ‭‭Genesis‬ ‭4 : 3 – 7‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

I believe this scripture is essential for all of us. Cain brought the least and Able brought the first, the best, the deserving of the Lord! Are you giving God your best or just the leftovers? Today’s prayers are that we would always give God our best, our 100% be faithful to God because he is always faithful to 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

Psalms‬ ‭69 ‬: ‭5‬

“O God, you know how foolish I am; my sins cannot be hidden from you.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭69 ‬: ‭5‬ ‭NLT‬‬

To try to hide your sin from God is a foolish move! For God sees all. I know so many people who run from God when they sin instead of running to God when they sin!!! Today’s prayer is when we miss the mark and sin we would go directly to God and repent and ask God to forgive and help us to not sin again …….. 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

WHEN SOMETHING IN YOUR LIFE OR THOUGHTS makes you anxious, come to GOD and talk about it. – PHILIPPIANS 4 : 6 – 7, ISAIAH 26 : 3

“WHEN SOMETHING IN YOUR LIFE OR THOUGHTS makes you anxious, come to GOD and talk about it. Bring GOD your prayer and petition with thanksgiving, saying: “Thank You, Jesus Christ, for this opportunity to trust You more.” Though the lessons of trust that The LORD sends to you come wrapped in difficulties, the benefits far outweigh the cost. Well-developed trust will bring you many blessings, not the least of which is GOD’S Peace. GOD has promised to keep you in perfect Peace to the extent that you trust in HIM. The world has it backwards, teaching that peace is the result of having enough money, possessions, insurance, and security systems. GOD’S Peace, however, is such an all-encompassing gift that it is independent of all circumstances. Though you lose everything else, if you gain GOD’S Peace you are rich indeed.”

Scripture

Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God which transcends all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. PHILIPPIANS 4 : 6-7 (NKJV)

You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in you. ISAIAH 26 : 3

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, when anxiety creeps in, help me to bring it to You with a heart of gratitude. Teach me to see every challenge as an opportunity to trust You more, knowing that true peace comes only from You. No matter my circumstances, let Your perfect peace fill my heart and mind in Christ Jesus. Amen.

Jeremiah‬ ‭1 : 6 – 8‬

““Alas, Sovereign Lord,” I said, “I do not know how to speak; I am too young.” But the Lord said to me, “Do not say, ‘I am too young.’ You must go to everyone I send you to and say whatever I command you. Do not be afraid of them, for I am with you and will rescue you,” declares the Lord.” ‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭1 : 6 – 8‬ ‭NIV‬‬

“God does not call the qualified, He qualifies the called” ever felt like Jeremiah? Scared? Not worthy? Well God has called you to a certain ministry, whether it’s Pastor, missions, or just to be an encourager. Today’s prayer is that you would trust God and just step into your calling. He is right there by your side …… 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 LEADING YOU, STEP BY STEP, through your life. – DEUTERONOMY 29 : 29, PSALM 32 : 8

“GOD IS LEADING YOU, STEP BY STEP, through your life. Hold The LORD’S hand in trusting dependence, letting HIM guide you through this day. Your future looks uncertain and feels flimsy — even precarious. That is how it should be. Secret things belong to the Lord, and future things are secret things. When you try to figure out the future, you are grasping at things that are GOD’S. This, like all forms of worry, is an act of rebellion: doubting GOD’S promises to care for you. Whenever you find yourself worrying about the future, repent and return to GOD. The LORD will show you the next step forward, and the one after that, and the one after that. Relax and enjoy the journey in The LORD’S Presence, trusting GOD to open up the way before you as you go.”

Scripture

The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but the things revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may follow all the words of this law. DEUTERONOMY 29 : 29

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

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, I trust You to lead me step by step, even when the future feels uncertain. Help me to release my worries and rest in Your promises, knowing that You will guide me in Your perfect timing. Let me walk in faith, enjoying the journey in Your presence. Amen.

Psalms‬ ‭56‬ :‭ 3 – 4‬

But when I am afraid, I will put my trust in you. I praise God for what he has promised. I trust in God, so why should I be afraid? What can mere mortals do to me? Psalms‬ ‭56‬ :‭ 3 – 4‬ NLT

What are you afraid of ? What is it that worries you? What makes you fret? Today’s prayer is that you will put all your trust in God, he always has your back in all situations …… 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

REST IN GOD’S PRESENCE, allowing GOD to take charge of this day. – COLOSSIANS 4 : 2 , 1 THESSALONIANS 5 : 18

“REST IN GOD’S PRESENCE, allowing GOD to take charge of this day. Do not bolt into the day like a racehorse suddenly released. Instead, walk purposefully with The LORD, letting HIM direct your course one step at a time. Thank The LORD for each blessing along the way; this brings Joy to both you and GOD. A grateful heart protects you from negative thinking. Thankfulness enables you to see the abundance GOD showers upon you daily. Your prayers and petitions are winged into heaven’s throne room when they are permeated with thanksgiving. In everything give thanks, for this is GOD’S will for you.”

Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. COLOSSIANS 4 : 2

Life is tough at times!!!! Down right ridiculous at times if you focus on all the tough times.

Today’s prayer is that we would look through the problem to find the solution!!! Jesus the author and finisher of our Faith. One of my favorite poems since I was a kid “Christian and not” is “Footprints In The Sand”, it is true !!!!!! ……. Be Blessed
