PRAYER

Jesus started His days with prayer 

Mark 1:35 

And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, Jesus went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed. 

1. Prayer prepares you for a victorious and successful day. 

2. Through prayer God gives wisdom and strength to face the day. 

3. Through prayer God gives you insight and foresight. 

-I encourage you to start everyday with payer. 

-When you kneel before God you will be able to stand before anyone and anything that comes your way. 

Psalm 118:24 

This is the day which the LORD has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it. 

+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be, and to God be all the glory. Amen!

JESUS SAVES

“If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us”. (1 John 1:8‭-‬10)

“Therefore say to the house of Israel, ‘Thus says the Lord God : “I do not do this for your sake, O house of Israel, but for My holy name’s sake, which you have profaned among the nations wherever you went. And I will sanctify My great name, which has been profaned among the nations, which you have profaned in their midst; and the nations shall know that I am the Lord ,” says the Lord God , “when I am hallowed in you before their eyes. For I will take you from among the nations, gather you out of all countries, and bring you into your own land. Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean; I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from all your idols. I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do them.  Then you shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; you shall be My people, and I will be your God. I will deliver you from all your uncleannesses. I will call for the grain and multiply it, and bring no famine upon you. And I will multiply the fruit of your trees and the increase of your fields, so that you need never again bear the reproach of famine among the nations. Then you will remember your evil ways and your deeds that were not good; and you will loathe yourselves in your own sight, for your iniquities and your abominations. Not for your sake do I do this, ” says the Lord God , “let it be known to you. Be ashamed and confounded for your own ways, O house of Israel!” ‘Thus says the Lord God : “On the day that I cleanse you from all your iniquities, I will also enable you to dwell in the cities, and the ruins shall be rebuilt.(Ezekiel 36:22‭-‬33)

PROMISE KEEPER

Way maker,miracle  worker,promise  keeper ,my God  that is who you are.

“But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance”. (2 Peter 3:8‭-‬9)

“Therefore know that the Lord your God, He is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant and mercy for a thousand generations with those who love Him and keep His commandments…”(Deuteronomy 7:9).

GOD DOESN’T  LIE

“For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us. Now He who establishes us with you in Christ and has anointed us is God, who also has sealed us and given us the Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee” (2 Corinthians 1:20‭-‬22 )

Therefore do not cast away your confidence, which has great reward. For you have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, you may receive the promise: “For yet a little while, And  He who is coming will come and will not tarry. Now the just shall live by faith; But if anyone draws back, My soul has no pleasure in him.” But we are not of those who draw back to perdition, but of those who believe to the saving of the soul.[Hebrews 10:35‭-‬39]

SELF DENIAL

Esther, a Jewish girl, who was married to a pagan King, broke a long standing tradition, marched into her husband’s throne room, spoke her mind, and rescued her nation from a holocaust. One woman – only one – saved the nation, because she was willing to get personally involved to the point of sacrifice and say, “If l perish, l perish” (Esther 4:16).

Before you say, somebody else should be doing this instead of me, read these words: l am only one, but I’m still one,who can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.(Philippians 4:13). I cannot do everything, but l can do something,through Christ who strengthens me, And because l can’t  do everything,on my own, l will not refuse to do something that God gives me strenvth to do. 
Ask God today, what can l do in this situation?

REMEMBER :

REMEMBER NOTHING is impossible for God.

Genesis 18:13-14 

 And the LORD said unto Abraham…

 Is any thing too hard for the LORD?…

-If this is the Lord’s question to you regarding your present problem, what would your answer be?

Mark 10:27 Jesus said:

…for with God all things are possible. 

Mark 9:23 Jesus also said: If you can believe, all things are possible to him that believes. 

-So I say unto you be encouraged and stay encouraged. 

Psalm 37:7-8

Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not yourself…

 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not yourself in any way…

-There is nothing that is too hard for God to do.

THEREFORE  :

Never Underestimate GOD!!!

Matthew 19:26 

But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, …but with God ALL THINGS are POSSIBLE. 

+It is very important to notice that it is WITH GOD that all things are possible. 

#1 We must be WITH GOD in order to experience the Possibilities of God. 

#2 What does WITH GOD means? This means that we have a relationship WITH GOD through the Lord Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. 

#3 Our Relationship WITH GOD is Demonstrated in:

A. Love for God and one another. 

B. Obedience to God’s Word and the Leading of His Holy Spirit. 

C. We must have Hope, Belief, Faith, Trust, and Confidence in God at all times. 

+The Bible had thousands of promises in it that God has made to us. Find the Promise that applies to you situation, and Trust the God of all possibilities to fulfill that promise in your life and be blessed forever more for the glory of God. Hallelujah!!!

•Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for our lives. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus loves us while keeping our Faith, Trust and Confidence in Him. 

•BLESSED we are and BLESSED we will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen!!!

TRUST  AND OBEY

WE NEED to

Totally (All-Out) Trust In The Lord

Proverb 3:5-7

 Trust in the LORD with all of your heart; and lean not unto your own understanding. 

 In all of your ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your paths.  Be not wise in your own eyes…

-We cannot trust in God and lean to our own understanding at the same time. It will not work. 

-Too often while we are trusting the Lord we let our own understanding get in the way. 

-In all our ways the Lord must be acknowledged. 

-God directs us in ALL things. 

-We cannot be wise in our own eyes. Meaning that we must cease from our own wisdom and only function in the Wisdom of the Lord. 

-Our job is to always cooperate with God on His terms. We are workers together with Him, 2 Corinthians 6:1. 

-Let us be lead by the Lord our Shepherd and by His Holy Spirit as we continue to live by every word of God. 

In You, O Lord , I have placed my trust and taken refuge; Let me never be ashamed; In Your righteousness rescue me. Incline Your ear to me, deliver me quickly; Be my rock of refuge, And a strong fortress to save me. Yes, You are my rock and my fortress; For Your name’s sake You will lead me and guide me. You will draw me out of the net that they have secretly laid for me, For You are my strength and my stronghold.  Into Your hand I commit my spirit; You have redeemed me, O Lord , the God of truth and faithfulness. I hate those who pay regard to vain (empty, worthless) idols; But I trust in the Lord [and rely on Him with unwavering confidence]. I will rejoice and be glad in Your steadfast love, Because You have seen my affliction; You have taken note of my life’s distresses, And You have not given me into the hand of the enemy; You have set my feet in a broad place.(PSALM 31:1‭-‬8 AMP)

+++Blessed we are and blessed we will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

ALL HAVE SIN,AND FALL SHORT  OF  THE  GLORY OF GOD….

If we say we have no sin [refusing to admit that we are sinners], we delude ourselves and the truth is not in us. [His word does not live in our hearts.] If we [freely] admit that we have sinned and confess our sins, He is faithful and just [true to His own nature and promises], and will forgive our sins and cleanse us continually from all unrighteousness [our wrongdoing, everything not in conformity with His will and purpose]. If we say that we have not sinned [refusing to admit acts of sin], we make Him [out to be] a liar [by contradicting Him] and His word is not in us.(1 JOHN 1:8‭-‬10)

Blessed [fortunate, prosperous, favored by God] is he whose transgression is forgiven, And whose sin is covered. Blessed is the man to whom the Lord does not impute wickedness, And in whose spirit there is no deceit. When I kept silent about my sin , my body wasted away Through my groaning all the day long. For day and night Your hand [of displeasure] was heavy upon me; My energy (vitality, strength) was drained away as with the burning heat of summer. Selah. I acknowledged my sin to You, And I did not hide my wickedness; I said, “I will confess [all] my transgressions to the Lord ”; And You forgave the guilt of my sin. Selah. Therefore, let everyone who is godly pray to You [for forgiveness] in a time when You [are near and] may be found; Surely when the great waters [of trial and distressing times] overflow they will not reach [the spirit in] him. You are my hiding place; You, Lord , protect me from trouble; You surround me with songs and shouts of deliverance. Selah. I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you [who are willing to learn] with My eye upon you. Do not be like the horse or like the mule which have no understanding, Whose trappings include bridle and rein to hold them in check, Otherwise they will not come near to you. Many are the sorrows of the wicked, But he who trusts in and relies on the Lord shall be surrounded with compassion and lovingkindness. Be glad in the Lord and rejoice, you righteous [who actively seek right standing with Him]; Shout for joy, all you upright in heart.(PSALM 32:1-11)

HIS PROMISES ARE REAL

It doesn’t matter how bad things are:

John 6:37 

Jesus said… him that comes to me I will in no wise cast out. 

1John 1:9 

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 

+++In life we make mistakes, but we don’t have to be a mistake. God is Merciful, Gracious and Forgiving because God is Love. 

+++With a sincere heart just repent, and ask God for forgiveness. That’s what God is saying to you today, 

Hebrews 8:12 

For I will be merciful to your unrighteousness, and your sins and your iniquities will I remember no more. 

+++It time to get over it and move on. Jesus has never left you or forsaken you. The Spirit of God is in you. You have the heart of God, the Mind of Christ and God is the Strength of your life, alleluia!

+++May I remind you that you can also do all things through Christ which strengthens you, Phil 4:13.

+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the Glory. Amen! and Alleluia! Hallelujah! Glory to God.

GRACE

“But He gives more grace. Therefore He says: “God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble.” Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. Lament and mourn and weep! Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom. Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up” {James  4:6-10}.

Seeing then that we have a great High Priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we  are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.{Hebrews 4:14‭-‬16}

Proverb 15:3 

The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good. 

Hebrews 4:13 

…but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him (God) with whom we have to do. 

-There is nothing that is done in darkness that will not be brought to the light. 

-There is an appointed time when the truth of all things will be revealed. 

-Some of us are tormented by wrongdoings TO others and wrongdoings BY others and we do not want anyone to know, but God knows. 

-Things like these are ruining people’s lives, breaking them down mentally, physically, emotionally, making them sick and some sick to the point of death. 

-Where do we go from here?

-How can things get better?

-Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the life. He is the ONLY Person that can permanently resolve all of our problems. Go to Jesus with it. 

-There is no condemnation for us who are in Christ Jesus. For who the Son sets free is free indeed. 

+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

POWER,LOVE,AND SOUND MIND 

Power over Fear

2 Timothy 1:7

For God has not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. 

1 John 4:18 

There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear: because fear has torment. He that fears is not made perfect in love. 

•Natural Fear is to be afraid of natural things such as heights, the dark, a dog, and being alone, etc. 

•The spirit of fear or (demonic fear) is actually an evil spirit. This evil spirit uses anything it can to torment, worry and stress us with fear to the point of breaking down mentally and emotionally and some even get sick. 

•Your cure for the spirit of fear is the Holy Spirit. He is the Spirit of Power, Love and a Sound Mind. 

•God’s Perfect and Complete Love is in our hearts by the Holy Spirit. Know this truth and accepting this truth and liberate you from all fears in the Almighty Name of Jesus Christ!

Hallelujah!!!

•Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for our lives. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus loves us while keeping our Faith, Trust and Confidence in Him. 

•BLESSED we are and BLESSED we will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen!!!

WITHHOLDING  NOTHING  

REMEMBER

Psalm 84:11 

…NO GOOD THING will he withhold from them that walk uprightly. 

Proverb 11:23 

The desire of the righteous is only good…

3 John 1:2 

Beloved, I wish above all things that you may PROSPER and be in health, even as your soul prospers. 

-Abundance and Great Desires are Good and Wonderful to have, but:

1. What happens when your Faith is not strong enough to obtain it?

2. What happens when your Wisdom is not Enough to Manage it?

3. What happens when your capacity is not enough to accommodate it?

-Here is wisdom. In 1 Kings Ch-3 God asked Solomon what “Do you want me to do for you?” 

-Solomon asked God for wisdom to be wise. 

-God answered and made Solomon the WISEST, RICHEST and most PROTECTED Man on the earth in his time. 

-In the Lord Jesus Christ you have much more than that. You have RICHES, WISDOM, STRENGTH, PROTECTION and ETERNAL LIFE. 

-Let the Lord Jesus Christ be your Wisdom today and your a Wisdom for the rest of your life, and enjoy your Abundance and Great Desires. 

+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the Glory. Amen!
