Daily Devotional Video 4/28/2020 – LAMENTATIONS 3 : 22 – 26, PSALM 34 : 8

“AS YOU LOOK into the day that stretches out before you, you see many choice-points along the way. The myriad possibilities these choices present can confuse you. Draw your mind back to the threshold of this day, where GOD stands beside you, lovingly preparing you for what is ahead. You must make your choices one at a time, since each is contingent upon the decision that precedes it. Instead of trying to create a mental map of your path through this day, focus on GOD’S loving Presence with you. GOD will equip you as you go, so that you can handle whatever comes your way. Trust GOD to supply what you need when you need it.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

Because of the LORD’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. I say to myself, “The LORD is my portion; therefore I will wait for him.” The LORD is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him; it is good to wait quietly for the salvation of the LORD. LAMENTATIONS 3 : 22 – 26

Oh, taste and see that the LORD is good; Blessed is the man who trusts in Him! PSALM 34 : 8 (NKJV)

Prayer: Lord instead of making a mental map of the future help me to focus on your presence today. Your word says you will give me what I need for today, my daily bread. Not my weekly or monthly or yearly bread so help me to fix my eyes on you and trust your plan Jesus. In your name I pray. Amen.

Colossians‬ ‭3‬:‭23‬

Work willingly at whatever you do, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people. (‭Colossians‬ ‭3‬:‭23‬ NLT)

Who’s approval are you seeking? Are you jeopardizing your person, your attitude, your walk with the Lord to fit in? This scripture says to work unto the Lord not people. Today I pray that we would work unto the Lord and watch his favor manifest in our lives……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

Daily Devotional Video 4/27/2020 – JOHN 17 : 20 – 23 , ISAIAH 40 : 29 – 31

“COME TO GOD with empty hands and an open heart, ready to receive abundant blessings. GOD knows the depth and breadth of your neediness. Your life-path has been difficult, draining you of strength. Come to GOD for nurture. Let The LORD fill you up with HIS Presence: GOD in you, and you in GOD. The LORD’S Power flows most freely into weak ones aware of their need for HIM. Faltering steps of dependence are not lack of faith; they are links to GOD’S Presence.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

“My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one: I in them and you in me. May they be brought to complete unity to let the world know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.” JOHN 17 : 20 – 23

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 : 29 – 31

Prayer: Lord I know I need you, oh how I need you. Every hour I need you. Without you, I fall apart. Your the one, who guides my heart. Give me strength and power and joy this week to do your will Lord. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

John ‭15‬:‭27‬

And you must also testify about me because you have been with me from the beginning of my ministry. John ‭15‬:‭27‬ NLT

Can you imagine walking with Jesus as the disciples did, and still most of them didn’t realize who he truly was. Today there are some who still walk as they did. Today I pray that we would all testify to who Jesus Christ is, what he has done for us, and what he is waiting to do for all……..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 ‭11:28-30

“Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, 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. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.” Matthew‬ ‭11:28-30‬ ‭NASB‬‬

Do you just seem to struggle and never get to that place of rest? Maybe it’s because you are trying to do things your own way? Trying to be the fixer and not get fixed! The words of Jesus tell us to come to him!! Are you handing over your troubles? I’m not saying that hand them over and life is going to be full of rainbows and unicorns, there will always be trials and struggles but the way of the world will continue to bring problems! The way of Jesus will bring peace in the middle of the storms. Today’s prayer is that we would be so in tune with Gods word that we would never be shaken and stand strong on the word!!!! Hand the problem off to Jesus and take the next trial head on…….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

‭Isaiah‬ ‭43‬:‭18-19

Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland. (‭Isaiah‬ ‭43‬:‭18-19‬ NIV)

Sometimes it hard to get over the past, someone wronged you, you got so far into debt you didn’t see a way out. The enemy wants you to dwell on those situations so you will look through Gods blessings that are all around you. Today’s prayer is that we would all view the past as a stepping stone in the road that leads us straight to Gods blessings, if you’re still battling it’s time to look to the blessings that are there……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

Daily Devotional Video 4/24/2020 – PSALM 46 : 10, ROMANS 8 : 1

“REST IN THE STILLNESS of GOD’S Presence while The LORD prepares you for this day. Let the radiance of GOD’S Glory shine upon you, as you wait on HIM in confident trust. Be still and know that The LORD is GOD. There is both a passive and an active side to trusting The LORD. As you rest in GOD’S Presence, focusing on HIM, GOD quietly builds bonds of trust between us. When you respond to the circumstances of your life with affirmations of trust, you actively participate in this process. The LORD is always with you, so you have no reason to be afraid. Your fear often manifests itself in excessive planning. Your mind is so accustomed to this pattern of thinking that you are only now becoming aware of how pervasive it is and how much it hinders your intimacy with GOD. Repent of this tendency and resist it, whenever you realize you are wandering down this well-worn path. Return to GOD’S Presence, which always awaits you in the present moment. GOD accepts you back with no condemnation.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

“Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.” PSALM 46 : 10

Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. ROMANS 8 : 1

Prayer: Lord help me to rest in the stillness of your presence. To slow down and live unhurried just as Jesus did. And instead be present in every precious moment you’ve given me today. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

I John 4:17

Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgement; because as He is, so are we in this world. (I John 4:17 NKJV)

This scripture is hard for a lot of believers to swallow, it’s says we are like Jesus , Really? We are? Yes in our spirit we have been perfected by the dwelling of the Holy Spirit, now in the natural that’s where we need work. Today ask God to let you be led by the spirit not the flesh and watch how we act more and more like Jesus ……..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

Daily Devotional Video 4/23/2020 – PSALM 141 : 8, PSALM 16 : 11

“KEEP YOUR EYES ON GOD, not only for direction but also for empowerment. GOD never leads you to do something without equipping you for the task. That is why it’s so important to seek GOD’S will in everything you do. There are many burned-out Christians who think more is always better, who deem it unspiritual to say no. In order to know GOD’S will, you must spend time with HIM— enjoying The LORD’S Presence. This is not an onerous task but a delightful privilege. GOD will show you the path of Life; in GOD’S Presence is fullness of Joy; at GOD’S right hand there are pleasures forevermore.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

But my eyes are fixed on you, O Sovereign LORD; in you I take refuge—do not give me over to death. PSALM 141 : 8

You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore. PSALM 16 : 11 (NKJV)

Prayer: Jesus help me to fix my eyes on you for direction, empowerment, peace, joy… For everything. You are my everything. Fill me with an abundance of love so much that it spills over to those around me today. May they see you. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Psalms‬ ‭42:11‬

“Why am I discouraged? Why is my heart so sad? I will put my hope in God! I will praise him again— my Savior and my God!” Psalms‬ ‭42:11‬ ‭NLT‬‬

This is the state you will have if you trust in the world, the world will bring temporary happiness and eternal sorrow. Today’s prayer is that we would have 100% trust in God and God alone……Be Blessed
