LET GOD CONTROL YOUR MIND. | GENESIS 1 : 26 – 27, ROMANS 8 : 6

https://youtu.be/JAx09v19WpE

“LET GOD CONTROL YOUR MIND. The mind is the most restless, unruly part of mankind. Long after you have learned the discipline of holding your tongue, your thoughts defy your will and set themselves up against GOD. Man is the pinnacle of GOD’S creation, and the human mind is wondrously complex. GOD risked all by granting you freedom to think for yourself. This is a godlike privilege, forever setting you apart from animals and robots. GOD made you in HIS image, precariously close to deity. Though The LORD’S blood has fully redeemed you, your mind is the last bastion of rebellion. Open yourself to GOD’S radiant Presence, letting HIS Light permeate your thinking. When GOD’S Holy Spirit is controlling your mind, you are filled with Life and Peace.”

Scripture

Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.” So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. GENESIS 1 : 26 – 27 

The mind of sinful man is death, but the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace. ROMANS 8 : 6

Prayer

Prayer: Holy Spirit, take control of my mind and teach me to align my thoughts with Your truth. When my mind wanders, help me take every thought captive and bring it back to Christ. Fill me with Your life and peace, and guide my words and thoughts today. Amen.

Acts ‭4‬ :‭ 12‬

There is salvation in no one else! God has given no other name under heaven by which we must be saved.” ‭Acts ‭4‬ :‭ 12‬ NLT

I hear this statement so often made ” I’m a good person I’m ok” well friends unfortunately being a good person won’t get you to Heaven!!!! In this scripture Luke states that there is no other name, or other way but JESUS CHRIST !!!!! Today I pray that all that are not saved will come to realize that being a good and nice person won’t save you, that only The LORD, JESUS CHRIST can save ……. 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 AFRAID, for GOD is with you. |  Mark 4 : 39, DEUTERONOMY 31 : 6, PSALM 46 : 2, PSALM 73 : 23 – 24

https://youtu.be/j_doz60IH6Q

“DO NOT BE AFRAID, for GOD is with you. Hear The LORD saying “Peace, be still to your restless heart”. No matter what happens, The LORD will never leave you nor forsake you. Let this assurance soak into your mind and heart, until you overflow with Joy. Though the earth gives way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, you need not fear! The media relentlessly proclaim bad news: for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. A steady diet of their fare will sicken you. Instead of focusing on fickle, ever-changing news broadcasts, tune in to The Living Word — The One who is always the same. Let Scripture saturate your mind and heart, and you will walk steadily along the path of Life. Even though you don’t know what will happen tomorrow, you can be absolutely sure of your ultimate destination. GOD holds you by your right hand, and afterward GOD will take you into Glory.”

Scripture

Then He arose and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, “Peace, be still!” And the wind ceased and there was a great calm. Mark 4 : 39 (NKJV) 

“Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.” DEUTERONOMY 31 : 6 

Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea. PSALM 46 : 2 

Yet I am always with you; you hold me by my right hand. You guide me with your counsel, and afterward you will take me into glory. PSALM 73 : 23 – 24

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, with all the distractions competing for my attention, help me be intentional about spending time with You in Your living Word, the only place where I find true joy and peace. Quiet my fears and remind my restless soul to be still before You. Amen.

Ephesians 5 : 15 – 17

See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is. Ephesians 5 : 15 – 17 NKJV

In today’s time this is a broken world, everything that is against The Word of GOD is expected. In the Old Testament GOD not only destroyed mankind HE destroyed the wicked towns ( Sodom and Gamorah ) when JESUS CHRIST came to earth as man and went to The Cross that took ALL of GOD’S wrath. As Christians we have to live according to GOD’S Word!!!! It is our wisdom, guide, peace, understanding, of what GOD’S perfect will is 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

Matthew 16 : 13 – 17

When Jesus came into the region of Caesarea Philippi, He asked His disciples, saying, “Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?” So they said, “Some say John the Baptist, some Elijah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets.” He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” Simon Peter answered and said, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” Jesus answered and said to him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in heaven. Matthew 16 : 13 – 17 NKJV

Who do you say JESUS CHRIST is ? The disciples walked with JESUS CHRIST throughout HIS whole ministry and only Peter knew who HE was, not much later after being blessed by JESUS CHRIST  Peter denied even knowing HIM. In the world today people are trying to prove that The LORD, JESUS CHRSIST  was just a myth, that HE is a fairy tale. As Christians we are to stand firm and speak out for The LORD!!!!! JESUS CHRIST  is the SO of GOD, HE is the messiah, HE is The Savior of the world!!!!! Proudly profess this to all and know that we serve a living GOD not a fairy tale ……… 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

Hebrews 10 : 16 – 18

“This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the Lord : I will put My laws into their hearts, and in their minds I will write them,” then He adds, “Their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.” Now where there is remission of these, there is no longer an offering for sin. Hebrews 10 : 16 – 18 NKJV

In the Old Testament the priest gave offerings for sin, that was the first covenant. As New Testament Christians JESUS CHRIST has covered all the sin there was, ALL of it. Today thank The LORD for the gift of salvation and the blood that was shed at Calvary, that precious Blood was the once and for all sacrifice for all of us and all of our sin. Don’t think that I am saying don’t worry about sin!!! Of course not, but the fact is the closer you get to JESUS CHRIST the further you get from sin ………. 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 16 : 1 – 4

Now Sarai, Abram’s wife, had borne him no children. And she had an Egyptian maidservant whose name was Hagar. So Sarai said to Abram, “See now, the Lord has restrained me from bearing children. Please, go in to my maid; perhaps I shall obtain children by her.” And Abram heeded the voice of Sarai. Then Sarai, Abram’s wife, took Hagar her maid, the Egyptian, and gave her to her husband Abram to be his wife, after Abram had dwelt ten years in the land of Canaan. So he went in to Hagar, and she conceived. And when she saw that she had conceived, her mistress became despised in her eyes. Genesis 16 : 1 – 4 NKJV

In this scripture this shows the result of self effort. Have you ever wanted something so bad that you will do just about anything to get it? Abram was promised a child in GOD’S time, but didn’t want to wait on The LORD so born was Ishmael. Ishmael is a direct reflection of self work, the promised child Isaac was born of GOD’S promise and became a great name. Sometimes we have to wait on The LORD’S promise, it may take days, months, years but be assured HIS timing is always perfect. Have you been waiting on something ? Pray that it is GOD’S will in HIS perfect timing ………. 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 CALLING YOU to a life of thankfulness. | ISAIAH 6 : 3, 2 CORINTHIANS 5 : 7, 1 THESSALONIANS 5 : 18

https://youtu.be/9Uu8HCHfGs0

“GOD is CALLING YOU to a life of thankfulness. GOD wants all your moments to be punctuated with thanksgiving. The basis for your gratitude is GOD’S sovereignty. GOD is the Creator and Controller of the universe. Heaven and earth are filled with The LORD’S glorious Presence. When you criticize or complain, you are acting as if you think you could run the world better than GOD does. From your limited human perspective, it may look as if The LORD is mismanaging things. But you don’t know what GOD knows or see what HE sees. If The LORD pulled back the curtain to allow you to view heavenly realms, you would understand much more. However, GOD has designed you to live by faith, not by sight. The LORD lovingly shields you from knowing the future or seeing into the spirit world. Acknowledge GOD’S sovereignty by giving thanks in all circumstances.”

Scripture

And they were calling to one another: “Holy, holy, holy is the LORD Almighty; the whole earth is full of his glory.” ISAIAH 6 : 3 

We live by faith, not by sight. 2 CORINTHIANS 5 : 7 

Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. 1 THESSALONIANS 5 : 18

Prayer

Prayer: God help me to live a life of thankfulness. If you did nothing else but die on the cross for my sins that would have been enough to give thanks and praise all the days of my life. But in your goodness you do so much. Thank you Jesus. Amen.

 Mark 7 : 13

making the word of God of no effect through your tradition which you have handed down. And many such things you do.” Mark 7 : 13 NKJV

Religious traditions are a killer!!!! The word of GOD is so clear on all that GOD wants, does, has, and has done for us. Today read The Word with spiritual eyes and let it speak to you, never take just one part of the word to build a tradition. Today I pray that all of us would understand just what JESUS CHRIST did for us on The Cross …….. 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

TRUST GOD, and don’t be afraid. | ISAIAH 12 : 2, PSALM 61 : 2 – 4, CORINTHIANS 3 : 18

https://youtu.be/-ifASfZCY4s

“TRUST GOD, and don’t be afraid. Many things feel out of control. Your routines are not running smoothly. You tend to feel more secure when your life is predictable. Let GOD lead you to the rock that is higher than you and your circumstances. Take refuge in the shelter of GOD’S wings, where you are absolutely secure. When you are shaken out of your comfortable routines, grip The LORD’S hand tightly and look for growth opportunities. Instead of bemoaning the loss of your comfort, accept the challenge of something new. GOD leads you on from glory to glory, making you fit for HIS kingdom. Say yes to the ways The LORD works in your life. Trust GOD, and don’t be afraid.”

“Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. The LORD, the LORD, is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation.” ISAIAH 12 : 2 

From the ends of the earth I call to you, I call as my heart grows faint; lead me to the rock that is higher than I. For you have been my refuge, a strong tower against the foe. I long to dwell in your tent forever and take refuge in the shelter of your wings. PSALM 61 : 2 – 4 

But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord. 2 CORINTHIANS 3 : 18 (NKJV)

Prayer: Lord help me to say yes to the ways you work in my life. And when you take me out of my comfort zone, help me to grip your hand tightly and rely on your strength, your wisdom, and your Holy Spirit. With God all things are possible. In Jesus’ precious name. Amen.
