ALL GLORY, HONOR, AND  PRAISE BE TO GOD.

“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? As it is written: “For Your sake we are killed all day long; We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.” Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”(Romans 8:31-39 NKJV).

“He who observes the day, observes it to the Lord; and he who does not observe the day, to the Lord he does not observe it. He who eats, eats to the Lord, for he gives God thanks; and he who does not eat, to the Lord he does not eat, and gives God thanks. For none of us lives to himself, and no one dies to himself. For if we live, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord. Therefore, whether we live or die, we are the Lord’s. For to this end Christ died and rose and lived again, that He might be Lord of both the dead and the living. But why do you judge your brother? Or why do you show contempt for your brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ. For it is written: “As I live, says the Lord, Every knee shall bow to Me, And every tongue shall confess to God.” So then each of us shall give account of himself to God. Therefore let us not judge one another anymore, but rather resolve this, not to put a stumbling block or a cause to fall in our brother’s way.”(Romans 14:6-13 NKJV).

“But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.”(1 Corinthians 15:57-58 NKJV).

LORD YOU TELL US TO : “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).

So Let’s Pray, LOVING   HEAVENLY  FATHER, it is our chief complaint that we do not love and serve You as we  ought to, please forgive us, and Help us to accept that we  can only do those things that please You as we decrease and You increase in our lives . Keep us from presumptuous sins,and from falling into any legalistic mindset, or from abusing the liberty we have in Christ through wrong choices. Please help us  shed all hidden pride ,and all appearances of self-importance so that we may be used by You.

We also pray that whatever choices we make in the ‘non-essentials’ of Christian life, we may glorify You in thought, word, and deed. Loving Father, we pray that in all things, we live to please You. Not in our own strength, but through the power of Your Holy Spirit. Bring us to the point where we can say without hesitation, “Thy will, not mine be done.”

Dear Lord Jesus, thank You for coming to earth to live a perfect life, and to die a cruel death so that we might be saved by grace through faith in You. We pray that whether we  live or whether we  die we  may do everything as unto You. IN THE ALMIGHTY NAME OF JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH WE PRAY. 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].
