1 Peter 1 : 18 – 21

knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, like silver or gold, from your aimless conduct received by tradition from your fathers, but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot. He indeed was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you who through Him believe in God, who raised Him from the dead and gave Him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God. 1 Peter 1 : 18 – 21 NKJV

Payments for things of the world are all temporary, you pay your mortgage and payment is required a month later, you pay your car payment and it’s again due next month. On that day at Calvary payment for our lives was given once and for all!!!!! Never again is payment needed, you could say JESUS CHRIST has the title to our souls. Today, realize the liberty we have in JESUS CHRIST and praise HIS Holy Name, all around us is temporal but heaven is eternal …………. 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

LEARN TO LISTEN TO GOD even while you are listening to other people. | EXODUS 3 : 5, 1 CORINTHIANS 6 : 19, JOHN 7 : 38 – 39

https://youtu.be/biLOy7x5CZQ

“LEARN TO LISTEN TO GOD even while you are listening to other people. As they open their souls to your scrutiny, you are on holy ground. You need the help of GOD’S Holy Spirit to respond appropriately. Ask GOD to think through you, live through you, love through you. GOD’S own Being is alive within you in the form of the Holy Spirit. If you respond to others’ needs through your unaided thought processes, you offer them dry crumbs. When the Holy Spirit empowers your listening and speaking, GOD’S streams of living water flow through you to other people. Be a channel of GOD’S Love, Joy, and Peace by listening to HIM as you listen to others.”

Scripture

“Do not come any closer,” God said. “Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground.” EXODUS 3 : 5 

Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own. 1 CORINTHIANS 6 : 19 

Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from within him.” By this he meant the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were later to receive. Up to that time the Spirit had not been given, since Jesus had not yet been glorified. JOHN 7 : 38 – 39

Prayer

Prayer: Lord thank you for your Holy Spirit who is God and knows everything about everything, past, present, and future – and who lives in me. Holy Spirit think through me, live through me, and love through me – help me to listen and speak the words you give me. Help me to be a beacon of light in the darkness. In JESUS CHRIST’ name. Amen.

Matthew‬ ‭11 : 28

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭11 : 28‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Do you ever feel that all you do is Go,Go,Go ? I think we all do. The world today has become a microwave society and I believe that when we are in our twilight years we will be filled with regret that life has passed us by. Today’s prayer is that we would take our burdens to The Lord, make the choice to have communion with HIM daily, decide what things are important and what things are just consuming space ……. 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

Psalms‬ ‭11 : 7

For the LORD is righteous, He loves righteousness; His countenance beholds the upright.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭11 : 7‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Oh to be pleasing to GOD, HE loves when we become more like HIS Son. The way we think determines the way we act, for example if we look at the negative in all situations we will become negative, if we look at the positives we will become positive. Today’s prayer is that we would be bright witnesses to the positive change having Jesus Christ as the cornerstone in our lives and let all know it’s waiting for them as well ……. 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 ‭12‬ :‭ 12‬

Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. Romans‬ ‭12‬ :‭ 12‬ NIV

This scripture lays out a great foundation to live by. To be joyful in hope is to look to our end results in Jesus, to be patient in affliction is to know that without a doubt Jesus will show up to correct the situation, and to be faithful in prayer means to always have an open line of communication with Jesus. Today I pray that we would all use this scripture as a foundation to live our lives by ……. 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 WITH YOU. GOD IS WITH YOU. GOD IS WITH YOU. | JEREMIAH 29 : 12 – 13, JOHN 10 : 14, 27 – 28

https://youtu.be/kqirVaBJ-Xg

“GOD IS WITH YOU. GOD IS WITH YOU. GOD IS WITH YOU. Heaven’s bells continually peal with that promise of GOD’S Presence. Some people never hear those bells because their minds are earthbound and their hearts are closed to GOD. Others hear the bells only once or twice in their lifetimes, in rare moments of seeking The LORD above all else. GOD’S desire is that HIS “sheep” hear HIS voice continually, for The LORD is the ever-present Shepherd. Quietness is the classroom where you learn to hear HIS voice. Beginners need a quiet place in order to still their minds. As you advance in this discipline, you gradually learn to carry the stillness with you wherever you go. When you step back into the mainstream of life, strain to hear those glorious bells: GOD is with you. GOD is with you. GOD is with you.”

Scripture

Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. JEREMIAH 29 : 12 – 13 

“I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me. . . . “My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of my hand.” JOHN 10 : 14, 27 – 28

Prayer

Prayer:  God set my mind on eternal things. Help me quiet my heart to hear Your voice amid the noise of life, and teach me to carry that stillness with me wherever I go. Amen.

Romans‬ ‭10 : 17

“Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭10 : 17‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Have you ever had faith in something or someone you have never heard about? Of course not, so if someone has not heard the good news of Jesus Christ how can they believe? By our witness that’s how. Today’s prayer is that we would boldly witness the gospel with courage and love …… 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

​LINGER IN GOD’S PRESENCE A WHILE. | EPHESIANS 2 : 10, HEBREWS 12 : 3

https://youtu.be/jpIVgFznsk0

“LINGER IN GOD’S PRESENCE A WHILE. Rein in your impulses to plunge into the day’s activities. Beginning your day alone with GOD is essential preparation for success. A great athlete takes time to prepare himself mentally for the feat ahead of him before he moves a muscle. Similarly, your time of being still in GOD’S Presence equips you for the day ahead of you. Only The LORD knows what will happen to you this day. GOD has arranged the events you will encounter as you go along your way. If you are not adequately equipped for the journey, you will grow weary and lose heart. Relax with GOD while HE readies you for action.” 

Scripture

For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. EPHESIANS 2 : 10 

Consider him who endured such opposition from sinful men, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart. HEBREWS 12 : 3

Prayer

Prayer: Lord help me to linger in your presence for a while. Reining in my impulse to plunge into my to-do list. Help me to begin my day alone with you, letting you fill me with your peace and joy and strength to do your will today. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Romans‬ ‭8‬ : 39

No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans‬ ‭8‬ : 39‬ NLT

Do you ever feel like you’re just not loved? Like you’re all alone in the world? Well you’re not! At all times you have the love of God with you. Today’s prayer is that when we feel down that we look to The Cross and the never ending love that was displayed on it ….. 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

DO NOT EXPECT to be treated fairly in this life.  | COLOSSIANS 3 : 13, ISAIAH 61 : 10, EPHESIANS 1 : 7 – 8, ROMANS 5 : 5

https://youtu.be/tcpna7BXlns

“DO NOT EXPECT to be treated fairly in this life. People will say and do hurtful things to you, things that you don’t deserve. When someone mistreats you, try to view it as an opportunity to grow in grace. See how quickly you can forgive the one who has wounded you. Don’t be concerned about setting the record straight. Instead of obsessing about other people’s opinions of you, keep your focus on GOD. Ultimately, it is GOD’S view of you that counts. As you concentrate on relating to The LORD, remember that GOD has clothed you in HIS righteousness and holiness. The LORD sees you attired in these radiant garments, which JESUS CHRIST, The LORD bought for you with HIS blood. This also is not fair; it is a pure gift. When others treat you unfairly, remember that GOD’S ways with you are much better than fair. GOD’S ways are Peace and Love, which HE has poured out into your heart by HIS Holy  Spirit.”

Scripture

Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. COLOSSIANS 3 : 13 

I delight greatly in the LORD; my soul rejoices in my God. For he has clothed me with garments of salvation and arrayed me in a robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom adorns his head like a priest, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels. ISAIAH 61 : 10 

In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace that he lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding. EPHESIANS 1 : 7 – 8 

And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us. ROMANS 5 : 5

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, when I’m treated unfairly, help me respond with grace and forgiveness instead of bitterness. Remind me that Your view of me is what truly matters, and fill my heart with Your peace and love that rise above the noise of the world. Amen.
