But I am trusting you, O LORD, saying, “You are my God!” Psalms 31 : 14 NLT
Trust is a character that is lacking in today’s world, to trust someone is to confide your all to them!!! When you truly understand God’s love for you it’s easy to trust him. Today I pray that we would all put our 100% trust in the Lord and not in the things of the world…….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
“LEAVE OUTCOMES UP TO GOD. Follow The LORD wherever HE leads, without worrying about how it will all turn out. Think of your life as an adventure, with GOD as your Guide and Companion. Live in the now, concentrating on staying in step with GOD. When your path leads to a cliff, be willing to climb it with The LORD’S help. When together, you come to a resting place, take time to be refreshed in GOD’S Presence. Enjoy the rhythm of a life lived close to GOD. You already know the ultimate destination of your journey: your entrance into heaven. So keep your focus on the path just before you, leaving outcomes up to The LORD.”
Scripture
I am still confident of this: I will see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. Wait for the LORD; be strong and take heart and wait for the LORD. PSALM 27 : 13 – 14
“In your unfailing love you will lead the people you have redeemed. In your strength you will guide them to your holy dwelling.” EXODUS 15 : 13
Prayer
Prayer: Jesus help me to leave outcomes up to you without worry about how they will turn out. Keep my focus on the path just before me, enjoying the rhythm of a life lived close to you. Even when the path is steep, we will climb it together and I will take time to rest along the way as you refresh me in your presence. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
““What sorrow awaits those who argue with their Creator. Does a clay pot argue with its maker? Does the clay dispute with the one who shapes it, saying, ‘Stop, you’re doing it wrong!’ Does the pot exclaim, ‘How clumsy can you be?’” Isaiah 45 : 9 NLT
Have you ever looked at a clump of clay? Not very attractive is it? Are we sometimes not very attractive in our appearance, actions, attitudes? The clay in the potter’s hands becomes something beautiful as he or she shapes it, the same way we become something Christ-like when God shapes us. Today’s prayer is that we allow Jesus to shape us in a way that shines like a diamond!!! And remember when trials come our way, look through the trial and know that we are victors ……. 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
“COME TO GOD, and rest in The LORD’S Peace. GOD’S Face is shining upon you, in rays of Peace transcending understanding. Instead of trying to figure things out yourself, you can relax in the Presence of the One who knows everything. As you lean on GOD in trusting dependence, you feel peaceful and complete. This is how GOD designed you to live: in close communion with HIM. When you are around other people, you tend to cater to their expectations—real or imagined. You feel enslaved to pleasing them, and your awareness of GOD’S Presence grows dim. Your efforts to win their approval eventually exhaust you. You offer these people dry crumbs rather than the living water of GOD’S Holy Spirit flowing through you. This is not GOD’S way for you! Stay in touch with The LORD, even during your busiest moments. Let GOD’S Holy Spirit give you words of grace as you live in the Light of The LORD’S Peace.”
Scripture
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests 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
“Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from within him.” JOHN 7 : 38
Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit. Speak to one another with psalms, hymns and spiritual songs. Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord, always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. EPHESIANS 5 : 18 – 20
Prayer
Prayer: Lord, I come to you and rest in your peace. Help me to lean on you in trusting dependence, even during my busiest moments. May your Spirit give me words of grace as I live in the light of your peace today. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
“A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed.” Proverbs 11 : 25 NIV
Do you know that feeling when you bless someone ? That “How good you feel” feeling? And have you ever noticed that soon after you are blessed right back? That is God’s blessings!!! Today’s prayer is that we would always help others when we can! Never expect God to bless you back just know that’s the God we serve …… Be Blessed and always 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
“APPROACH PROBLEMS with a light touch. When your mind moves toward a problem area, you tend to focus on that situation so intensely that you lose sight of GOD. You pit yourself against the difficulty as if you had to conquer it immediately. Your mind gears up for battle, and your body becomes tense and anxious. Unless you achieve total victory, you feel defeated. There is a better way. When a problem starts to overshadow your thoughts, bring this matter to GOD. Talk with The LORD about it and look at it in the Light of HIS Presence. This puts some much-needed space between you and your concern, enabling you to see from The LORD’S perspective. You will be surprised at the results. Sometimes you may even laugh at yourself for being so serious about something so insignificant. You will always face trouble in this life. But more importantly, you will always have GOD with you, helping you to handle whatever you encounter. Approach problems with a light touch by viewing them in The LORD’S revealing Light.”
Scripture
Blessed are those who have learned to acclaim you, who walk in the light of your presence, O LORD. PSALM 89 : 15
“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” JOHN 16 : 33
Prayer
Prayer: Lord help me not to be surprised or frustrated when I have trouble in this life. And help me never lose sight of the victory you’ve already won. The end is already written. Help me to talk with you about my light and momentary troubles and surrender them into your capable hands. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
Who are you to condemn someone else’s servants? Their own master will judge whether they stand or fall. And with the Lord’s help, they will stand and receive his approval. Romans 14 : 4 NLT
The world is full of people trying to play God!!! There will be a day that we all will answer to Almighty, Today I pray that we would never judge nor condemn anyone, but show the love of Jesus and let the creator do his work…….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
“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
“Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.” Jude 1 : 24 – 25 NKJV
We tend to take all the glory when we achieve something, Jesus gave us the chance to live through his loving sacrifice so how can we not give him the glory? To be self righteous is to be distant from God. Today’s prayer is that we would give glory to God in all situations, even though we play a big part in our achievements, Jesus played a bigger part by laying his life down for us so that we may live…….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
“BASK IN THE LUXURY of being fully understood and unconditionally loved. Dare to see yourself as GOD sees you: radiant in GOD’S righteousness, cleansed by The LORD’S blood. GOD views you as the one HE created you to be, the one you will be in actuality when heaven becomes your home. It is GOD’S Life within you that is changing you from glory to glory. Rejoice in this mysterious miracle! Thank The LORD continually for the amazing gift of HIS Holy Spirit within you. Try to depend on the help of GOD’S Holy Spirit as you go through this day of life. Pause briefly from time to time so you can consult with the Holy One inside you. GOD will not force you to do HIS bidding, but GOD will guide you as you give HIM space in your life. Walk along this wondrous way of collaboration with GOD’S Holy Spirit.”
Scripture
Those who look to him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame. PSALM 34 : 5
God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God. 2 CORINTHIANS 5 : 21
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)
Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. GALATIANS 5 : 25
Prayer
Prayer: Lord help me to depend on your Holy Spirit more today than I did yesterday. To pause to consult with Him before making a decision so I can do your will. Holy Spirit, control my thoughts, my words, and my actions today. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
