‭‭John‬ ‭19:16-18

“Finally Pilate handed him over to them to be crucified. So the soldiers took charge of Jesus. Carrying his own cross, he went out to the place of the Skull (which in Aramaic is called Golgotha). There they crucified him, and with him two others—one on each side and Jesus in the middle.”
‭‭John‬ ‭19:16-18‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Can you even imagine the King of Kings carried his own cross to his crucifixion. Jesus did nothing wrong in all his time on earth but was charged with so many false accusations. In our daily lives we also can be slandered, and how much more do we deserve it than Jesus? This is where Amazing Grace and unconditional love walked in. Today’s prayer is when times get rough we pick up our Cross and walk right to the arms of the savior, he’s always waiting with arms wide open………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

‭‭Romans‬ ‭13:11‬

“And do this, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep; for now our salvation is nearer than when we first believed.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭13:11‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

This scripture reminds us of the end times. The events going on in the world have been written about since the beginning. We need to have a stronger relationship with Jesus than ever. Today’s prayer is that we would pray for the world and its leaders, witness the gospel to everyone you can……..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 ‭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 to 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 5:17

GOD IS YOUR LORD! – PROVERBS 19 : 21, LUKE 1 : 79

https://youtu.be/kZ917XotvZ0

“GOD IS YOUR LORD! Seek GOD as Friend and Lover of your soul, but remember that GOD is also King of kings — sovereign over all. You can make some plans as you gaze into the day that stretches out before you. But you need to hold those plans tentatively, anticipating that The LORD may have other ideas. The most important thing to determine is what to do right now. Instead of scanning the horizon of your life, looking for things that need to be done, concentrate on the task before you and the One who never leaves your side. Let everything else fade into the background. This will unclutter your mind, allowing GOD to occupy more and more of your consciousness. Trust GOD to show you what to do when you have finished what you are doing now. The LORD will guide you step by step, as you bend your will to HIS. Thus you stay close to GOD on the path of Peace.”

Scripture

Many are the plans in a man’s heart, but it is the LORD’s purpose that prevails. PROVERBS 19 : 21

“. . . to shine on those living in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the path of peace.” LUKE 1 : 79

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, thank you for reminding me I can make plans, but to hold them loosely, anticipating that you might have other ideas and ask me to let my plans go. Help me to keep my eyes fixed on you Jesus. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Ephesians‬ ‭2:8‬ ‭

“For it is by free grace (God’s unmerited favor) that you are saved (delivered from judgment and made partakers of Christ’s salvation) through [your] faith. And this [salvation] is not of yourselves [of your own doing, it came not through your own striving], but it is the gift of God;” Ephesians‬ ‭2:8‬ ‭AMP‬‬

I love this translation, it explains Grace to a Tee. I believe sometimes as Christians we forget that God’s grace is such a beautiful gift, sometimes we act like it’s our actions that create our peace. The fact of the matter is if not for grace we would be living a life of destruction! But by our faith in Jesus we now have become Sons and Daughters of God. Today’s prayer is that we would never stop thanking God for his Grace and live a life that is pleasing to him……..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

SPENDING TIME alone with GOD is essential for your well-being. – REVELATION 12 : 10, EPHESIANS 6 : 16, JAMES 4 : 7 – 8

https://youtu.be/TT2ofNBzbdA

“SPENDING TIME alone with GOD is essential for your well-being. It is not a luxury or an option; it is a necessity. Therefore, do not feel guilty about taking time to be with GOD. Remember that Satan is the accuser of believers. He delights in heaping guilt feelings upon you, especially when you are enjoying GOD’S Presence. When you feel Satan’s arrows of accusation, you are probably on the right track. Use your shield of faith to protect yourself from him. Talk with GOD about what you are experiencing, and ask The LORD to show you the way forward. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Come near to GOD, and The LORD will come near to you.”

Scripture

Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say: “Now have come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ. “For the accuser of our brothers, who accuses them before our God day and night, has been hurled down.” REVELATION 12 : 10

In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. EPHESIANS 6 : 16

Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. JAMES 4 : 7 – 8

Prayer

Prayer: God help me to prioritize spending time each day with you. I know this is essential for my well-being and for my soul. When the enemy tries to put lies in my head or divide my family, help me to put on my full armor and fight back with the sword of the Spirit, your word just as Jesus did. In Jesus’ precious name. Amen.

Matthew‬ ‭12‬:‭21

And his name will be the hope of all the world.” ‭Matthew‬ ‭12‬:‭21‬ NLT

Isaiah spoke plain and clear about Jesus in this prophecy. What are you hoping for? Who have you put your hope in? Today’s prayer is that we all would remember who we put our trust in, we put our trust in Jesus Christ the hope of the world, so when the waters get rough remember this scripture……Be Blessed

THE LORD IS A MIGHTY GOD. – LUKE 1 : 37, 2 CORINTHIANS 12 : 9

https://youtu.be/D1MVZnwhtAg

“THE LORD IS A MIGHTY GOD. Nothing is too difficult for GOD. GOD has chosen to use weak ones like you to accomplish HIS purposes. Your weakness is designed to open you up to The LORD’S Power. Therefore, do not fear your limitations or measure the day’s demands against your strength. What GOD requires of you is to stay connected to HIM, living in trusting dependence on HIS limitless resources. When you face unexpected demands, there is no need to panic. Remember that The LORD is with you. Talk with GOD, and listen while GOD talks you through each challenging situation. The LORD is not a careless God. When GOD allows difficulties to come into your life, GOD equips you fully to handle them. Relax in GOD’S Presence, trusting in GOD’S Strength.”

Scripture

“For nothing is impossible with God.” LUKE 1 : 37

But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. 2 CORINTHIANS 12 : 9

Prayer

Prayer: God when I feel weak help me to remember to talk with you and then be still and listen as you talk me through each challenging situation. Thank you for caring about every detail of my life – big and small. May Jesus’ power rest on me today. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Luke 22 : 31 – 34

And the Lord said, “Simon, Simon! Indeed, Satan has asked for you, that he may sift you as wheat. But I have prayed for you, that your faith should not fail; and when you have returned to Me, strengthen your brethren.” But he said to Him, “Lord, I am ready to go with You, both to prison and to death.” Then He said, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster shall not crow this day before you will deny three times that you know Me.” Luke 22:31-34 NKJV

Jesus knew that Peter would deny even knowing him, but Jesus also knew that he would build his church using Peter as the main brick. In life, in certain circumstances it’s easy to deny the gospel of Jesus, but do not stand down, stand firm in your belief. Jesus never stopped loving Peter because of his actions and the same applies to you. Today I pray that the spirit of truth would fill each one with the boldness to witness Jesus to all………..

THANK GOD IN THE MIDST of the crucible. – 1 PETER 5 : 6 – 7, 1 THESSALONIANS 5 : 18

https://youtu.be/XsKqhKV52QQ

“THANK GOD IN THE MIDST of the crucible. When things seem all wrong, look for growth opportunities. Especially, look for areas where you need to let go, leaving your cares in GOD’S able hands. Do you trust The LORD to orchestrate your life events as HE chooses, or are you still trying to make things go according to your will? If you keep trying to carry out your intentions while GOD is leading you in another direction, you deify your desires. Be on the lookout for what The LORD is doing in your life. Worship GOD by living close to HIM, thanking The LORD in all circumstances.”

Scripture

Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. 1 PETER 5 : 6 – 7

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

Prayer

Prayer: Lord show me any areas of my life I need to let go, leaving that worry in your capable hands. Help me to be on the lookout for what you are doing in my life and worship you by living close to you. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
