1 Peter‬ ‭4‬ :‭ 19

So if you are suffering in a manner that pleases God, keep on doing what is right, and trust your lives to the God who created you, for he will never fail you. 1 Peter‬ ‭4‬ :‭ 19‬ NLT

Sometimes we mistake suffering for being humbled, GOD is for us not against us! We sometimes may want something that we think is perfect for us but GOD sees it differently, HE has another plan! That is not suffering, it may be the best thing for us. Today I pray that we would seek GOD in all of our decisions and always trust HE knows best …… 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

OPEN YOUR HANDS and your heart to receive this day as a precious gift from GOD.  – PSALM 118 : 24, PSALM 95 : 2, ZEPHANIAH 3 : 17

“OPEN YOUR HANDS and your heart to receive this day as a precious gift from GOD. GOD begins each day with a sunrise, announcing HIS radiant Presence. By the time you rise from your bed, GOD has already prepared the way before you. The LORD eagerly awaits your first conscious thought. GOD rejoices when you glance HIS way. Bring The LORD the gift of thanksgiving, which opens your heart to rich communion with HIM. Because The LORD is GOD, from whom all blessings flow, thankfulness is the best way to draw near to The LORD. Sing praise songs to The LORD; tell of GOD’S wondrous works. Remember that GOD takes great delight in you; GOD rejoices over you with singing.”

Scripture

This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it. PSALM 118 : 24

Let us come before him with thanksgiving and extol him with music and song. PSALM 95 : 2

“The LORD your God is with you, he is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, he will quiet you with his love, he will rejoice over you with singing.” ZEPHANIAH 3 : 17

Prayer

Prayer: God, today I open my hands and heart to receive all You have prepared for me. Thank You for this new day, for Your nearness, and for the joy You sing over me. Help me respond with gratitude and praise, walking in step with Your Presence. Amen.

Isaiah‬ ‭53‬ :‭ 4 – 5

Yet it was our weaknesses he carried; it was our sorrows that weighed him down. And we thought his troubles were a punishment from God, a punishment for his own sins! But he was pierced for our rebellion, crushed for our sins. He was beaten so we could be whole. He was whipped so we could be healed. Isaiah‬ ‭53‬ :‭ 4 – 5‬ NLT

Reality check! We sometimes think life is unfair, we complain about the most trivial things, we exchange our thankfulness of life in general for what? Today I pray that we would all remember the gift we were given when Jesus Christ so graciously went to The Cross in our place, that gift was Love and Life ……. 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

HOLD GOD’S HAND—AND TRUST. – ISAIAH 41 : 10, PSALM 62 : 5 – 6

“HOLD GOD’S HAND—AND TRUST. So long as you are conscious of GOD’S Presence with you, all is well. It is virtually impossible to stumble while walking in the Light with The LORD. GOD designed you to enjoy HIM above all else. You find the deepest fulfillment of your heart in GOD alone. Fearful, anxious thoughts melt away in the Light of The LORD’S Presence. When you turn away from GOD, you are vulnerable to the darkness that is always at work in the world. Don’t be surprised by how easily you sin when you forget to cling to GOD’S hand. In the world, dependency is seen as immaturity. But in GOD’S kingdom, dependence on GOD is a prime measure of maturity.”

Scripture

“So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” ISAIAH 41 : 10

Find rest, Oh my soul, in God alone; my hope comes from him. He alone is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will not be shaken. PSALM 62 : 5 – 6

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, help me hold tightly to Your hand today. In Your presence, fear fades and peace rises. Teach me to depend on You fully, finding joy and strength in walking closely with You. Amen.

1 John‬ ‭4 : 16

So we have come to know and to believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.” ‭‭1 John‬ ‭4 : 16‬ ‭ESV‬‬

What the world is missing is “True Love” and what is the meaning of True Love? True love is the love that GOD displayed for us by sending his SON to The Cross for all of our sins. True love is to have the heart of a servant, to put others before yourself, to be kind in all circumstances. Today’s prayer is that we all would set aside all of the hustle of the world and slow down enough to recognize what love is and show it to 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

LET GOD’S LOVE STREAM THROUGH YOU, washing away fear and distrust. – PSALM 52 : 8, DEUTERONOMY 31 : 6, EPHESIANS 4 : 30

“LET GOD’S LOVE STREAM THROUGH YOU, washing away fear and distrust. A trusting response includes GOD in your thoughts as you consider strategies to deal with a situation. GOD’S continual Presence is a promise, guaranteeing that you never have to face anything alone. The LORD’S children teeth on the truth that GOD is always with them, yet they stumble around in a stupor, unaware of The LORD’S loving Presence all around them. How that grieves GOD! When you walk through a day in trusting dependence on GOD, HIS aching heart is soothed. Gently bring your attention back to GOD whenever it wanders away. The LORD looks for persistence— rather than perfection — in your walk with HIM.”

Scripture

But I am like an olive tree flourishing in the house of God; I trust in God’s unfailing love for ever and ever. PSALM 52 : 8 

“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 

And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. EPHESIANS 4 : 30

Prayer

Prayer: Jesus, let Your love wash over me and push out every trace of fear and doubt. When my thoughts drift or I try to handle life on my own, gently pull me back to You. Thank You that You’re not asking me to be perfect—just to keep coming back. Amen.

Psalms‬ ‭34‬ :‭ 5‬

Those who look to him for help will be radiant with joy; no shadow of shame will darken their faces.  Psalms‬ ‭34‬ :‭ 5‬ NLT

Is it hard for you to ask for help? Do you feel like you are weak if you do ask for help? God is waiting with open arms to help us through any situation or struggle, weakness comes from those who are proud, strength comes to those who humble themselves at the foot of the cross. Today I pray that we would all turn to Jesus Christ for the solution, not 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

GOD SPEAKS TO YOU CONTINUALLY.  – PSALM 8 : 1 – 4 , PSALM 19 : 1 – 2, JEREMIAH 29 : 13

“GOD SPEAKS TO YOU CONTINUALLY. GOD’S nature is to communicate, though not always in words. The LORD flings glorious sunsets across the sky, day after day after day. HE speaks in the faces and voices of loved ones. The LORD caresses you with a gentle breeze that refreshes and delights you. GOD speaks softly in the depths of your spirit, where HE has taken up residence. You can find The LORD in each moment, when you have eyes that see and ears that hear. Ask GOD’S Holy Spirit to sharpen your spiritual eyesight and hearing. The LORD rejoices each time you discover HIS Presence. Practice looking and listening for GOD during quiet intervals. Gradually you will find GOD in more and more of your moments. You will seek CHRIST, THE LORD and find HIM, when you seek GOD above all else.”

Scripture

O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory above the heavens. From the lips of children and infants you have ordained praise because of your enemies, to silence the foe and the avenger. When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place, what is man that you are mindful of him, the son of man that you care for him? PSALM 8 : 1 – 4 

The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they display knowledge. PSALM 19 : 1 – 2 

“You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.” JEREMIAH 29 : 13

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, thank You for always speaking to me—through beauty, through people, through Your Spirit deep within me. Help me slow down and pay attention, to look and listen for You in the little moments of my day. Tune my heart to seek You above all else and rejoice when I discover your presence. Amen.

Romans‬ ‭15 : 13

“May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.”  Romans‬ ‭15 : 13‬ ‭NIV‬‬

So many things happen in our day to day life it can be easy to become discouraged and lose hope. JESUS CHRIST left us the one called the Counselor, The Holy Spirit to know how to deal with situations like JESUS CHRIST , HE left us the one called the Comforter to never lose hope, HE left us the HOLY SPIRIT to direct every step of our lives if we allow Him to. Today’s prayer is that we would understand that JESUS CHRIST overcame what we couldn’t overcome and left us the one who can get us through life with that great hope …… 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

‭‭Jonah‬ ‭1 : 1 – 3

“The word of the Lord came to Jonah son of Amittai: “Go to the great city of Nineveh and preach against it, because its wickedness has come up before me.” But Jonah ran away from the Lord and headed for Tarshish. He went down to Joppa, where he found a ship bound for that port. After paying the fare, he went aboard and sailed for Tarshish to flee from the Lord.” ‭‭Jonah‬ ‭1 : 1 – 3‬ ‭NIV

Jonah ran from The Lord because he was afraid of the people of Nineveh. The people of Nineveh were wicked and evil, even though he ran he could never get away from what GOD called him to do. Has GOD called you to take his message to a particular people but you’re too afraid to take HIS message to all but you don’t have the courage? Just as GOD gave Jonah the words and courage he will do the same for you. Today’s prayer is when you are convicted to witness to someone that is GOD’S Jonah call to you! Don’t be afraid GOD will provide the words …….. Be Blessed, Be Courageous 

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
