GOD DESIGNED YOU to live in union with HIM. – MARK 8 : 36, PSALM 139 : 13 – 16, 2 CORINTHIANS 3 : 17 – 18

https://youtu.be/ATq_UHP02Ec

“GOD DESIGNED YOU to live in union with HIM. This union does not negate who you are; it actually makes you more fully yourself. When you try to live independently of GOD, you experience emptiness and dissatisfaction. You may gain the whole world and yet lose everything that really counts. Find fulfillment through living close to GOD, yielding to HIS purposes for you. Though The LORD may lead you along paths that feel alien to you, trust that The LORD knows what HE is doing. If you follow GOD wholeheartedly, you will discover facets of yourself that were previously hidden. GOD knows you intimately — far better than you know yourself. In union with The LORD, you are complete. In closeness to The LORD, you are transformed more and more into the one GOD designed you to be.”

Scripture

“What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his soul?” MARK 8 : 36

For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be. PSALM 139 : 13 – 16

Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his likeness with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit. 2 CORINTHIANS 3 : 17 – 18

Prayer

Prayer: Lord you know me intimately, better than I know myself because you created me. You created me for your pleasure and purpose. Keep me close to you and transform me to look more like Jesus. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

1 Corinthians‬ ‭3 : 9 – 11

“For we are co-workers in God’s service; you are God’s field, God’s building. By the grace God has given me, I laid a foundation as a wise builder, and someone else is building on it. But each one should build with care. For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ.” ‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭3 : 9 – 11‬ ‭NIV‬‬

How’s construction coming? How solid is your foundation? The most important part of a structure is the foundation, it supports the weight, stress, and whatever is placed on it. Much like our Christian faith the most important part is to build our foundation as Jesus Christ! Being a Christian is difficult but rewarding and having Jesus as our foundation relieves the weight, stress or whatever is placed upon us. Today’s prayer is that we all check our foundation, make sure 100% that it is Jesus! Having him as our solid foundation will relieve many of the trials we face daily……Be Blessed & be your own building inspector

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

COME TO GOD AND REST. – MATTHEW 7 : 1, JOHN 17 : 3, ROMANS 9 : 20 – 21, 1 TIMOTHY 6 : 15

https://youtu.be/YYzq3x7SbWc

“COME TO GOD AND REST. Give your mind a break from its habitual judging. You form judgments about this situation, that situation, this person, that person, yourself, even the weather—as if judging were your main function in life. But GOD created you first and foremost to know HIM and to live in rich communication with HIM. When you become preoccupied with passing judgment, you usurp The LORD’S role. Relate to GOD as creature to Creator, sheep to Shepherd, subject to King, clay to Potter. Allow GOD to have HIS way in your life. Rather than evaluating GOD’S ways with you, accept them thankfully. The intimacy GOD offers you is not an invitation to act as if you were GOD’S equal. Worship The LORD as King of kings while walking hand in hand with GOD down the path of Life.”

Scripture

“Do not judge, or you too will be judged.” MATTHEW 7 : 1

Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent. JOHN 17 : 3

But who are you, O man, to talk back to God? “Shall what is formed say to him who formed it, ‘Why did you make me like this?’” Does not the potter have the right to make out of the same lump of clay some pottery for noble purposes and some for common use? ROMANS 9 : 20 – 21

. . . which God will bring about in his own time—God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords. 1 TIMOTHY 6 : 15

Prayer

Prayer: Lord you are King of Kings and Lord of Lords. I come to worship you for who you are, what you’ve done, and for what you are doing and going to do in my life. Thank you for adopting me into your family and walking hand in hand with me through life. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Ephesians‬ ‭3‬ :‭ 20

Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. Ephesians‬ ‭3‬ :‭ 20‬ NLT

Are great things happening in your life? Do you accomplish things that you never thought you could? Are you blessed beyond words? And the key, are you giving all the glory to God or taking all the credit yourself? Today I pray that we would recognize God in all of our victories and blessings and thank him continuously in all things…….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

Psalm‬ ‭100 : 4

“Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name. For the Lord is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations.” Psalm‬ ‭100 : 4

What are you thankful for today? Are you thankful in all things? The key to being thankful is in all things, because if you really look hard you will find a reason to be thankful in all things. Today’s prayer is that we would be thankful in the good and the bad, because God will turn the tests into testimonies, and the good for his glory…….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

Ecclesiastes‬ ‭11‬ :‭ 5

As you do not know the path of the wind, or how the body is formed in a mother’s womb, so you cannot understand the work of God, the Maker of all things. ‭Ecclesiastes‬ ‭11‬ :‭ 5‬ NIV

Trying to figure out everything that is going on in the world and in your life will always end with the same result “you will never understand”. Worry and control are extremely exhausting, Today’s prayer is that we would trust in the Lord and all His ways, as the Bible says all things work for the good of those who love God……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

RECEIVE GOD’S PEACE. – JOHN 14 : 27, ISAIAH 30 : 15, 2 CORINTHIANS 10 : 4

https://youtu.be/SrcOLYEU3EY

“RECEIVE GOD’S PEACE. It is GOD’S continual gift to you. The best way to receive this gift is to sit quietly in GOD’S Presence, trusting The LORD in every area of your life. Quietness and trust accomplish far more than you can imagine: not only in you, but also on earth and in heaven. When you trust GOD in a given area, you release that problem or person into The LORD’S care. Spending time alone with The LORD can be a difficult discipline, because it goes against the activity addiction of this age. You may appear to be doing nothing, but actually you are participating in battles going on within spiritual realms. You are waging war—not with the weapons of the world, but with heavenly weapons, which have divine power to demolish strongholds. Living close to GOD is a sure defense against evil.”

Scripture

“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.” JOHN 14 : 27

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

The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. 2 CORINTHIANS 10 : 4

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, I want to receive your peace by sitting still and quiet in your presence, allowing your peace to permeate every inch of my being. When I do, I am waging war against spiritual battles with spiritual weapons. In Jesus’ 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

This blessing was prayed for the people of Israel by Aaron, and this prayer stands strong today for all of God’s children. Today I pray that you would feel the Lord’s blessings and protection, and that you would always feel him smiling upon you….Be Blessed and Be A Blessing

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

REJOICE IN GOD ALWAYS! – PHILIPPIANS 4 : 4,12, PSALM 102 : 27

https://youtu.be/R66jdvqakr0

“REJOICE IN GOD ALWAYS! No matter what is going on, you can rejoice in your Love-relationship with GOD. This is the secret of being content in all circumstances. So many people dream of the day when they will finally be happy: when they are out of debt, when their children are out of trouble, when they have more leisure time, and so on. While they daydream, their moments are trickling into the ground like precious balm spilling wastefully from overturned bottles. Fantasizing about future happiness will never bring fulfillment, because fantasy is unreality. Even though GOD is invisible, The LORD is far more Real than the world you see around you. GOD’S reality is eternal and unchanging. Bring your moments to The LORD, and HE will fill them with vibrant Joy. Now is the time to rejoice in GOD’S Presence!”

Scripture

Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! . . . I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. PHILIPPIANS 4 : 4,12

But you remain the same, and your years will never end. PSALM 102 : 27

Prayer

Prayer: Lord teach me to live in the present moment, appreciating the blessings you’ve given me. Whether I am in need or have plenty, help to be content and grateful. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

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 is ? The disciples walked with Jesus throughout his whole ministry and only Peter knew who he was, not much later after being blessed by Jesus Peter denied even knowing him. In the world today people are trying to prove that Jesus was just a myth, that he is a fairy tale. As Christians we are to stand firm and speak out for Jesus!!!!! He is the Son 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
