​IT’S ALL RIGHT TO BE HUMAN. | DEUTERONOMY 31 : 6, 1 PETER 3 : 4, 2 CORINTHIANS 4 : 6 – 7, 2 CORINTHIANS 12 : 9

https://youtu.be/ZVkzbqSr3xU

“IT’S ALL RIGHT TO BE HUMAN. When your mind wanders while you are praying, don’t be surprised or upset. Simply return your attention to GOD. Share a secret smile with GOD, knowing that HE understands. Rejoice in The LORD’S Love for you, which has no limits or conditions. Whisper The LORD’S Name in loving contentment, assured that HE will never leave you or forsake you. Intersperse these peaceful interludes abundantly throughout your day. This practice will enable you to attain a quiet and gentle spirit, which is pleasing to GOD. As you live in close contact with GOD, the Light of HIS Presence filters through you to bless others. Your weakness and woundedness are the openings through which the Light of the knowledge of GOD’S Glory shines forth. The LORD’S strength and power show themselves most effective in your weakness.”

 “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 

Instead, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight. 1 PETER 3 : 4

For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ. But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. 2 CORINTHIANS 4 : 6 – 7

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 of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 2 CORINTHIANS 12 : 9 

Prayer: Lord, thank You for meeting me with grace in my weakness and distractions. Gently draw my heart back to You and help me rest in Your faithful presence. Use even my weakness to reflect Your strength and light. Amen.

‭‭Luke‬ ‭14 : 34 – 35

““Salt is good; but if the salt has lost its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is neither fit for the land nor for the dunghill, but men throw it out. He who has ears to hear, let him hear!”” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭14 : 34 – 35‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

It’s a privilege to be a Christian it’s also our obligation to witness the gospel to all we can. To say you’re a Christian is one thing but are you actively pursuing souls for CHRIST? Thus salt without flavor is useless. Today’s prayer is we would be more than just professing Christians but be active Christians ………. 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

Luke‬ ‭15‬ :‭ 4 – 7‬

“Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it? And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders and goes home. Then he calls his friends and neighbors together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.’ I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent. Luke‬ ‭15‬ :‭ 4 – 7‬ NIV

Are you praying for a family member,friend,co-worker ? GOD hears your prayer and that one person is as important to the Lord as any other soul. The parable of the lost sheep reveals to us just how important every soul on earth is to our Father in Heaven. Today I boldly pray that GOD would grace us with the strength to overcome the adversity of the things of this world and boldly witness the joy that comes from making JESUS CHRIST your Lord and Savior…….. 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

Luke‬ ‭6 : 36

“You must be compassionate, just as your Father is compassionate.” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭6 : 36‬ ‭

 Can you imagine if GOD treated us with the same measure as we treat people? Wow what a disaster!!!! If GOD shows us HIS Grace 24/7/365 should we not do the same? Today’s prayer is we would treat ALL with compassion just as our Heavenly Father does to us ….. 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

STRIVE TO TRUST GOD in more and more areas of your life. | PSALM 52 : 8, PROVERBS 3 : 5 – 6

https://youtu.be/VhmIpD31JQA

“STRIVE TO TRUST GOD in more and more areas of your life. Anything that tends to make you anxious is a growth opportunity. Instead of running away from these challenges, embrace them, eager to gain all the blessings The LORD has hidden in the difficulties. If you believe that GOD is sovereign over every aspect of your life, it is possible to trust The LORD in all situations. Don’t waste energy regretting the way things are or thinking about what might have been. Start at the present moment—accepting things exactly as they are— and search for GOD’S way in the midst of those circumstances. Trust is like a staff you can lean on, as you journey uphill with The LORD. If you are trusting in The LORD consistently, the staff will bear as much of your weight as needed. Lean on, trust, and be confident in GOD with all your heart and mind.”

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 

Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths. PROVERBS 3 : 5 – 6

Prayer

Prayer: Lord help me to trust you in more and more areas of my life. Starting at the present moment, accepting things exactly as they are, and searching for your way in the midst of my circumstances. I trust you Jesus. Amen.

2 Thessalonians‬ ‭2‬ :‭ 16 – 17

May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who loved us and by his grace gave us eternal encouragement and good hope, encourage your hearts and strengthen you in every good deed and word. 2 Thessalonians‬ ‭2‬ :‭ 16 – 17‬ NIV

What is encouraging to you? The word Encourage means to give support, confidence, give hope. GOD has given us encouragement through HIS Son JESUS CHRIST and that’s all we need. Today’s prayer is that we stay focused on Encouraging promise that JESUS CHRIST gave us, don’t look to the world for hope, look to The LORD for eternal 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

GOD WANTS YOU TO BE ALL HIS. | DEUTERONOMY 33 : 27, ROMANS 8 : 39

“GOD WANTS YOU TO BE ALL HIS. GOD is weaning you from other dependencies. Your security rests in GOD alone — not in other people, not in circumstances. Depending only on The LORD may feel like walking on a tightrope, but there is a safety net underneath: HIS everlasting arms. So don’t be afraid of falling. Instead, look ahead to GOD. The LORD is always before you, beckoning you on — one step at a time. Neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, can separate you from GOD’S Loving Presence.”

Scripture

The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms. He will drive out your enemy before you, saying, “Destroy him!” DEUTERONOMY 33 : 27 

Neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. ROMANS 8 : 39

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, help me rest my security in You alone and release the things I’ve leaned on instead. When trusting You feels uncertain, remind me that Your everlasting arms are holding me steady. Keep my eyes fixed on You as I take each step forward in confidence and peace.

Isaiah‬ ‭40‬ :‭ 31‬

“but they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.” ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭40‬ :‭ 31‬ ‭KJV‬‬ 

Are you waiting on something? Are you wondering if it will ever show up? Wait is a word that we should break down with spiritual eyes. 

W = walk with God daily. 

A = alignment your thoughts with GOD’S Word. 

I = invest time in GOD’S word. 

T = trust in GOD’S timing. 

Today’s prayer is that we would put this into play daily and trust in GOD for HE is faithful ….. 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

APPROACH THIS DAY WITH AWARENESS OF WHO IS BOSS. | ISAIAH 55 : 9 – 11, JEREMIAH 29 : 11

https://youtu.be/53csJUxuOjA

“APPROACH THIS DAY WITH AWARENESS OF WHO IS BOSS. As you make plans for the day, remember that it is GOD who orchestrates the events of your life. On days when things go smoothly, according to your plans, you may be unaware of GOD’S Sovereign Presence. On days when your plans are thwarted, be on the lookout for GOD! GOD may be doing something important in your life, something quite different from what you expected. It is essential at such times to stay in communication with GOD, accepting HIS way as better than yours. Don’t try to figure out what is happening. Simply trust GOD and thank HIM in advance for the good that will come out of it all. GOD knows the plans HE has for you, and they are good.”

Scripture

“As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts. As the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater, so is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.” ISAIAH 55 : 9 – 11 

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” JEREMIAH 29 : 11

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, You are sovereign over my life. When I forget and try to take control again, gently remind me that Your ways are higher than mine. As I surrender to You, I step into an adventure of trust, waiting with expectation for what You have planned next. I trust You completely, Lord. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Luke‬ ‭5‬ :‭ 29 – 32‬

Later, Levi held a banquet in his home with Jesus as the guest of honor. Many of Levi’s fellow tax collectors and other guests also ate with them. But the Pharisees and their teachers of religious law complained bitterly to Jesus’ disciples, “Why do you eat and drink with such scum? ” Jesus answered them, “Healthy people don’t need a doctor—sick people do. I have come to call not those who think they are righteous, but those who know they are sinners and need to repent.” Luke‬ ‭5‬ :‭ 29 – 32‬ NLT

Have you put yourself in a Christian bubble? Do you only associate with other believers ? When is the last time you saw someone living in sin and told them that JESUS CHRIST loves them? JESUS CHRIST took a lot of criticism for eating with the sinners at Matthew’s house, but have you ever wondered what were the Pharisees doing there?. The person who portrays that they are so righteous may need the most witness. Today I pray that we would all love equal! Believer and Non believer, to be more like JESUS CHRIST we have to love the sinner, but not the sin …… 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
