” Oh, that you had heeded My commandments! Then your peace would have been like a river, And your righteousness like the waves of the sea.”( Isaiah 48:18 NKJV).

” My son, do not forget my law, But let your heart keep my commands; For length of days and long life And peace they will add to you.  Let not mercy and truth forsake you; Bind them around your neck, Write them on the tablet of your heart, And so find favor and high esteem In the sight of God and man.”( Proverbs 3:1-4 NKJV).

“Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”( John 14:27 NKJV).

” Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God;  and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”(Philippians 4:6-7 NKJV).

“But above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection. And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.”(Colossians 3:14-16 NKJV).

Let’s seal the word in prayer:
HEAVENLY FATHER,   LORD OUR GOD, grant that we may heed your commandments, that our peace may be like a river, and our righteousness like the waves of the sea. Be with us through your Spirit, we pray. Speak with us and tell us what we need to hear so that we can understand what draws us always nearer to you. Show the might of your hand to help us and all people. Even under judgment we shall not despair, we shall not lose courage because of troubles and distress. Come with your strength, that we may grow strong to overcome the world through Jesus Christ the Savior.

HEAVENLY FATHER, Thank you,that You are my Guide and Defender, my Rock and my Stay. Thank You, that You are the same yesterday, today and forever. As You were when You led the children of Israel through their times of difficulties and oppression. Give me a teachable spirit, listening ears, and an attentive heart so that I may learn all that Your Holy Spirit desires to teach me. And continue to guide me I pray, in the way that is best for me. IN JESUS’S MIGHTY NAME.  AMEN 🙌 👏 🙏.

“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].

PRAYERS should be a lifestyle ,and a necessity for believers . IF YOU ONLY PRAY WHEN YOU WANT SOMETHING FROM GOD; YOU ARE IN TROUBLE. PRAYER GOES WHERE WE CANNOT GO,DO WHAT WE CANNOT DO, AND GIVE GOD ACCESS TO INTERVENE ON OUR BEHALF.

“You lust and do not have. You murder and covet and cannot obtain. You fight and war. YET YOU DO NOT HAVE BECAUSE YOU DO NOT ASK. You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss, that you may spend it on your pleasures.  Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.” (James 4:2-4 NKJV).

WHY WOULDN’T YOU WANT TO COMMUNICATE, AND HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH THE CREATOR OF THE WORLD AND YOU. HE SAYS:

” For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.  Then you will call upon Me and go and PRAY to Me, and I will listen to you.  And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart.” ( Jeremiah 29: 11-13 NKJV).

“Watch and PRAY, lest you enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.” (Matthew 26: 41 NKJV).

“Then He spoke a parable to them, that men always ought to PRAY and not lose heart,..( Luke 18 :1 NKJV).

“Rejoice always, PRAY without ceasing,  in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you..”( 1 Thessalonians 5: 16-18 NKJV).

“PRAYING always with all PRAYER AND SUPPLICATION in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints—..” (Ephesians 6 : 18 NKJV).

” Confess your trespasses to one another, and PRAY for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent PRAYER of a righteous man avails much. ” ( James 5 :16 NKJV).

” Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by PRAYER AND SUPPLICATION, with THANKSGIVING, let your requests be made known to God;  and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things.” ( Philippians 4 : 6-8 NKJV).

“For if I PRAY in a tongue, my spirit PRAYS, but my understanding is unfruitful.  What is the conclusion then? I will PRAY with the spirit, and I will also PRAY with the understanding. I will sing with the spirit, and I will also sing with the understanding.”( 1 Corinthians 14 : 14-15 NKJV).

” casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.  Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world. But may the God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you. To Him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.” [ Peter 5: 7-11 NKJV ].

Proverbs 3:5-8 NKJV
[5] Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; [6] In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths. [7] Do not be wise in your own eyes; Fear the Lord and depart from evil. [8] It will be health to your flesh, And strength to your bones.

Jeremiah 29:11-13 NKJV
[11] For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. [12] Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. [13] And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart.

If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.
James 1:5

My 🙏🏽 Prayer…
HEAVENLY FATHER, thank You for this morning. Please provide me with peace, hope, and strength. Remind me of Your presence throughout the day, so I can live with others-focused love. Thank You for all You’ve given me.

Thank You for a new week filled with new mercies. As I start this Sunday, I ask for clarity, direction, and courage. Let my thoughts, words, and actions reflect Your love today and always.

Fill me with strength as I prepare for the week ahead. I don’t know what’s coming, but I know You’re already there with me. I trust You with my to-do list, my stress, and my unknowns.

Thank You for the blessing of friends, family, and community. Today, I lift up the people around me. Draw them close to You. Surround them with peace, strength, and joy. Bless our time together this Sunday morning and throughout the week.

Jude 1:24-25 NKJV
[24] 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, [25] To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.

“My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.  And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand. My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father’s hand. I and My Father are one.” ( John 10: 27-30 NKJV).

“There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.  For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death. For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of sin: He condemned sin in the flesh, that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. 

For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.  For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.  Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be. So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God.  But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His.

And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.  Therefore, brethren, we are debtors—not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh.  For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.  For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.

For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father.” The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God,  and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together. For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God.” ( Romans 8: 1-19 NKJV).

” I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish.  But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness,  idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies,  envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.  If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.  Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.” ( Galatians 5 : 16- 26 NKJV).

” 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].

In  John 2:5 NKJV :
His mother said to the servants, “Whatever He says to you, do it.”

Then in Luke 6:46 NKJV,Jesus said:
“But why do you call Me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and not do the things which I say?
WHAT ARE SOME OF THE THINGS GOD,TELLS US TO DO ? AND WE DON’T DO IT ? THEN WE FIND OURSELVES IN TROUBLE, AND TURN TO HIM FOR HELP.
LET’S LOOK AT A FEW THAT ,THE HOLY SPIRIT HAVE LISTED FOR US :

Joshua 1:8-9 NKJV
This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success. Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”

If you don’t do this one,you will never know the promises of God for yourselves, you can’t expect to know and get it all in an 1hr or 2 service on Sunday. You have to do what the Bible says. Which is.

Matthew 7:24-27 NKJV
[24] “Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock: [25] and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock. [26] “But everyone who hears these sayings of Mine, and does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand: [27] and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great was its fall.”

2 Timothy 2:15 KJV
[15] Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

To obey is better than sacrifice. 1 Samuel 15:22-23 KJV
And Samuel said, Hath the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, As in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, And to hearken than the fat of rams. [23] For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, And stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, He hath also rejected thee from being king.( prosperous, healthy, etc.)

Some folks like to complain, and say the Bible is complicated and they don’t understand it,and man wrote the Bible . Which man past or present can give us detailed information of the past,present and future, except the creator.
Let’s put that to rest,with scripture:

2 Timothy 3:16-17 KJV
All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: [17] that the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.

Jesus also said in :

John 14:26-27 KJV
But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. [27] Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
Once you know what the Word of God says,you will be able to do this:

James 1:5-8 KJV
[5] If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. [6] But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. [7] For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. [8] A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.

James 1:19-25 KJV
[19] Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath: [20] for the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God. [21] Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls. [22] But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. [23] For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: [24] for he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. [25] But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.
How do we meditate on the word: By reading it slowly, attentively, and repeatedly.

Ephesians 3:20-21 KJV
[20] Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, [21] unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.

Finally: Jude 1:24-25 KJV
Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, [25] to the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.

THE BENEFITS OF THE RIGHTEOUS  :

” For You, O Lord, will BLESS THE RIGHTEOUS; With favor You will surround him as with a shield.” ( Psalms 5:12 NKJV).

“The fear of the wicked will come upon him, And the desire of THE RIGHTEOUS will be granted. When the whirlwind passes by, the wicked is no more, But THE RIGHTEOUS has an everlasting foundation.”( Proverbs 10: 24-25 NKJV).

” For I say to you, that UNLESS YOUR RIGHTEOUSNESS exceeds the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven.” ( Matthew 5 : 20 NKJV).

” And these will go away into everlasting punishment, but THE RIGHTEOUS into eternal life.” ( Matthew 25:46 NKJV).

“Little children, let no one deceive you. HE WHO PRACTICES RIGHTEOUSNESS IS RIGHTEOUS, just as He is righteous.” (1 John 3 : 7 NKJV).

THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD

” But now THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD apart from the law is revealed, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets,  even THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD, through faith in Jesus Christ, to all and on all who believe. For there is no difference; for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,  being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus,  whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS, because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed,  to demonstrate at the present time HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.” ( Romans 3: 21-26 NKJV).

“For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God in Him ( JESUS ).”( 2 Corinthians 5:21 NKJV).

” Simon Peter, a bondservant and apostle of Jesus Christ, To those who have obtained like precious faith with us by the RIGHTEOUSNESS OF OUR GOD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST: Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue,  by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.” (2 Peter 1:1-4 NKJV).

“Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.”(James 5:16 NKJV).

” For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age,  looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ,..”( Titus 2 : 11-13 NKJV).

* Do not argue about RIGHTEOUSNESS with anyone.
* God alone establishes RIGHTEOUSNESS that is true and holy.
* When you received Jesus as your Savior and Lord you became the RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD IN CHRIST JESUS.
+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

“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]

“Cast your burden on the Lord, And He shall sustain you; He shall never permit the righteous to be moved.” ( Psalms 55: 22 NKJV).

” 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 NKJV).

” Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time,  casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you. Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.  Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world.  But may the God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.” (1 Peter  5: 6-10 NKJV).

+++God sits on The Throne of Grace. He is Gracious and Merciful unto us.
+++GRACE is God’s unmerited favor and kindness towards us. Grace gives us the goodness of God which we did not deserve and His MERCY spears us from the punishment we did deserve.
+++As long as we did not blasphemed against the Holy Spirit, God will always forgive us of all our repented sins and iniquities. We may feel shame, regret and remorse but never feel condemned.

“What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?  He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? Who shall bring a charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies.  Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? ( Romans 8:31-35 NKJV).

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

In Galatians 5:22-23 it gives us the makeup of the Fruit of the Spirit.
22 But the FRUIT of the Spirit is…JOY…
Psalm 16:11 tells us that:
In the Presence of the Lord is the Fullness of JOY.
Then  Nehemiah 8:10 informs us that :
…for the JOY of the LORD is your Strength.
However, 1 Peter 1:8 says :
Though we have not seen God, we believe in Him and we rejoice with JOY unspeakable and full of glory.

+In the natural JOY is the feeling of great pleasure and happiness.
+But spiritually JOY, the JOY of the Lord (the FRUIT of the Spirit JOY) is something completely different.
+This JOY is of the Lord. It is the Love of God in our hearts Rejoicing.
+This is also called the Fullness of JOY.
+It is not a temporary feeling, but a permanent condition of our hearts.
+Based on 1 Cor 6:17 the Lord is in our hearts by His Holy Spirit and where the Spirit of the Lord is there is the FULLNESS of JOY.
+Enjoy your permanent and eternal JOY. Amen!

+What is Joy, Spiritual Joy, the Fruit of the Spirit Joy???
+This Joy keeps you Totally, Completely and Permanently satisfied and content in the Lord to the point of always rejoicing.
+Sometimes this Joy is unspeakable and inexpressible.
+This Joy is also unlimited and inexhaustible.
+Happiness comes and goes, but Joy, spiritual Joy, the Joy of the Lord, the Fruit of Joy is permanently in our hearts at all times and forever.

Now let’s look at peace from Galatians 5:22-23 standard:
But the FRUIT of the Spirit is…PEACE…
+Peace comes from Love and it is also being one with God. The Peace of Love is to rest in quietness in the Lord.
+It refreshes you in spirit, soul, mind and body.
+The Peace of God overall enhances your entire life.
Isaiah 9:7 says :
…the Lord is our Prince of Peace.
1 Corinthians 14:33 says this:
For God is the Author of Peace…
+Meaning Peace begins with God, and without Him we have no peace.

Let’s look at a few more supporting  scriptures :
2 Corinthians 13:11
Our God is the God of Peace.
Judges 6:24
He is also our Jehovah Shalom. The Lord is our Peace.
Philippians 4:7
And the Peace of God, which passes all understanding, shall keep our HEARTS and MINDS through Christ Jesus our Lord.

James 3:18
And the FRUIT of Righteousness is sown in PEACE by them that make PEACE.
+We bear the Fruit of Peace in our lives.
+And since our God and Father is the God of Peace, He made us His Children of Peace.
Matthew 5:9
Blessed are the Peacemakers: for they shall be called the Children of God.
+How amazingly wonderful is that? Being a Peacemaker identifies us as Children of God.
+We do not only have Peace, we are Children of Peace, and Peacemakers wherever we go.
PSALM 37:37
Mark the perfect (mature, blameless and Christlike) man… for the end of that man is PEACE.
Romans 15:13
Now the God of hope fill you with ALL JOY and PEACE… Amen and Hallelujah!

•Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for your life. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus Loves us while keeping our Faith, Trust, and Confidence in Him.
•BLESSED you are and BLESSED you will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen!

Jude 1:24-25 NKJV
[24] 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, [25] To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.
