God wants us to trust Him, regardless of what’s happening in the world, and in your life.

” Some trust in chariots, and some in horses; But we will remember the name of the Lord our God.”( Psalms 20: 7 NKJV).

“Trust in the Lord, and do good; Dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness. Delight yourself also in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord, Trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass.”( Psalms 37: 3-5 NKJV).

” Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding;  In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.”( Proverbs 3: 5-6 NKJV).

“Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, And whose hope is the Lord.  For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters, Which spreads out its roots by the river, And will not fear when heat comes; But its leaf will be green, And will not be anxious in the year of drought, Nor will cease from yielding fruit.”[ Jeremiah 17:7-8 NKJV].

My 🙏🏽 Prayer…
Heavenly Father,
We gather this Sunday with hearts full of gratitude and love. We lift up our families and friends to You, asking for Your divine presence to rest upon each one. We pray for their health and well-being, both in body and spirit. May Your healing hand touch those who are sick, and may You grant strength and vitality to all.
We ask for Your unwavering guidance and protection. Be a shield around our loved ones, keeping them safe from all harm and danger, both seen and unseen. Lead them on paths of righteousness and wisdom, helping them to make choices that honor You and draw them closer to Your grace.
Lord, as we begin a new week, we seek a spiritual renewal. Fill us with Your Holy Spirit, refresh our hearts, and renew our minds. Help us to cast aside our worries and anxieties, and to place our full trust in You. We recognize and proclaim You as our Saviour, the source of all hope, peace, and salvation.
May we always remember Your incredible love for us, and may that love overflow from our lives to those around us. Strengthen our faith, deepen our love for one another, and keep us steadfast in Your truth.
IN JESUS HOLY AND PRECIOUS NAME, WE PRAY. AMEN .

“The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace.”
Numbers 6:24-26

Hebrews 13:5-6 NKJV
[5] Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” [6] So we may boldly say: “The Lord is my helper; I will not fear. What can man do to me?”

Romans 12:1-21 NKJV
[1] I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. [2] And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. [3] For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith. [4] For as we have many members in one body, but all the members do not have the same function, [5] so we, being many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another. [6] Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, let us prophesy in proportion to our faith; [7] or ministry, let us use it in our ministering; he who teaches, in teaching; [8] he who exhorts, in exhortation; he who gives, with liberality; he who leads, with diligence; he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness. [9] Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil. Cling to what is good. [10] Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honor giving preference to one another; [11] not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord; [12] rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, continuing steadfastly in prayer; [13] distributing to the needs of the saints, given to hospitality. [14] Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. [15] Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep. [16] Be of the same mind toward one another. Do not set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Do not be wise in your own opinion. [17] Repay no one evil for evil. Have regard for good things in the sight of all men. [18] If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men. [19] Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but rather give place to wrath; for it is written, “Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” says the Lord. [20] Therefore “If your enemy is hungry, feed him; If he is thirsty, give him a drink; For in so doing you will heap coals of fire on his head.” [21] Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.
John 8:32

My 🙏🏽 Prayer…
Heavenly Father,
We come before you with hearts seeking your wisdom and guidance. Your Word, in John 8:32, promises that “you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
Lord, we pray for the knowledge of your truth. In a world filled with competing voices and confusion, help us to discern your voice above all others. Open our minds to understand your Word and our hearts to receive it. Let your truth, which is Jesus Christ himself, be the foundation of our lives.
We also pray for the freedom that your truth brings. Free us from the chains of sin, doubt, fear, and deception. Liberate us from anything that holds us back from a deeper relationship with you. Break every yoke of bondage and fill us with the peace and joy that come only from knowing you.
May our lives be a testament to your liberating power. Empower us to live as your children, walking in the light of your truth, and sharing the freedom we have found in you with others.
In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray.
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.

“Forever, O Lord, Your word is settled in heaven.
How sweet are Your words to my taste, Sweeter than honey to my mouth!
Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path.
The entrance of Your words gives light; It gives understanding to the simple.” ( Psalms 119: 89,103,105,130 NKJV).

” He sends out His command to the earth; His word runs very swiftly.” (Psalms 147: 15 NKJV).

“He sent His word and healed them, And delivered them from their destructions.” (Psalms 107: 20 NKJV)

” For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.  And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account.” ( Hebrews 4: 12-13 NKJV).

God’s Word is sure and secure.

” The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul; The testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple; The statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart; The commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes;..”( Psalms 19: 7-8 NKJV).

“And so we have the prophetic word confirmed, which you do well to heed as a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts; knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation,  for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.” ( 2 Peter 1: 19-21 NKJV).

•The infallibility of God’s Word gives it the ability to produce all the promises of God in your life.
•Yes! The Word of God is guaranteed and backed by God Almighty Himself.
•When you accept God’s promises by belief, trust and exercised faith in God, the promises will materialize in your life.

“And not being weak in faith, he did not consider his own body, already dead (since he was about a hundred years old), and the deadness of Sarah’s womb. He did not waver at the promise of God through unbelief, but was strengthened in faith, giving glory to God,  and being fully convinced that what He had promised He was also able to perform.  And therefore “it was accounted to him for righteousness.” ( Romans 4: 19-22  NKJV ).

” Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling or falling into sin, and to present you unblemished [blameless and faultless] in the presence of His glory with triumphant joy and unspeakable delight, to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion, and power, before all time and now and forever. Amen.” [ Jude 1: 24-25 AMP )

•Stay encouraged and don’t give up.
+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

Don’t worry about falling or failing. God got you.

Deuteronomy 31:6 NKJV
[6] Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the Lord your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you.”

Joshua 1:5-9 NKJV
[5] No man shall be able to stand before you all the days of your life; as I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not leave you nor forsake you. [6] Be strong and of good courage, for to this people you shall divide as an inheritance the land which I swore to their fathers to give them. [7] Only be strong and very courageous, that you may observe to do according to all the law which Moses My servant commanded you; do not turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may prosper wherever you go. [8] 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. [9] 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.”

Proverbs 24:16.
For a righteous man may fall seven times And rise again, But the wicked shall fall by calamity.
Psalms 37:24.
Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down; For the Lord upholds him with His hand.

Acts 17:28 NKJV
[28] for in Him we live and move and have our being, as also some of your own poets have said, ‘For we are also His offspring.’

II Corinthians 12:9-10 NKJV
[9] And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. [10] Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

Hebrews 13:5-6 NKJV
[5] Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” [6] So we may boldly say: “The Lord is my helper; I will not fear. What can man do to me?”

Jude 24-25.
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.

What is The Fruit of the Spirit ?
Galatians 5:22-23 says :
22 But the FRUIT of the Spirit is Love, Joy, Peace, Longsuffering, Gentleness, Goodness, Faith,
23 Meekness, Temperance: against such there is no law.
+Please Notice the scriptures say the FRUIT singular, of the Spirit singular, is LOVE singular.
+There is only ONE FRIUT of the Spirit, but NINE DISTINCT CHARACTERISTICS, MANIFESTATIONS, or FLAVORS of the ONE FRUIT.
+The end of verse 23 says against SUCH the (FRUIT of the SPIRIT ) there is no LAW. Meaning there is no LAW that can bring a charge against the FRUIT of the Spirit , or (those that walk in the FRUIT of the Spirit).
+This is like 1 Corinthians 13:7-8 which says (Love or the FRUIT of the Spirit) BEARS all things, BELIEVES all things, HOPES all things, ENDURES all things. LOVE (the FRUIT of the Spirit) NEVER FAILS.
+Never stop walking in the FRUIT of the Spirit. Amen!

+Always let Love lead you in every way.
As we continue with Galatians 5:22-23
22 But the FRUIT of the Spirit is LOVE…
1 John 4:8 reminds us that …God is LOVE.
+God is Love, Jesus is Love and the Holy Spirit is Love.
+We are children of God which make us all children of LOVE.
Then Romans 5:5 also tells  us :
…the LOVE of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit Who is given unto us.
+Our hearts are filled with God and the LOVE of God by the Holy Spirit Who is God.
+As children of God LOVE is who we are therefore we do all with LOVE.
+Out of all the characteristics of the children of God, LOVE (LOVING) is most outstanding.
In John 13:35 Jesus said:
By this shall all men know that you are my disciples, if you have LOVE one to another. Amen!

Continuing in Galatians 5:22-23
22 But the FRUIT of the Spirit is LOVE…
+The things that the FRUIT of LOVE does NOT DO are based on 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 (AMP)
+The Fruit of the Spirit (LOVE) is never envious, jealous, boastful, vainglorious, haughty, conceited, or (arrogant and inflated with pride).
+The Fruit of the Spirit (LOVE) is not rude (unmannerly), or unbecomingly.
+The Fruit of the Spirit (LOVE) (God’s love in us) does not insist on its own rights, but instead insists on God’s Rights. +The Fruit of the Spirit (God’s Love in us) does not insists on its own way. Neither is it self-seeking.

The Fruit of the Spirit (God’s Love in us) is not touchy, fretful or resentful.

The Fruit of the Spirit (God’s Love in us) takes no account of the evil done to it [it pays no attention to a suffered wrong], and It does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness
+The FRUITFULNESS of the Fruit of the Spirit (LOVE) EMPOWERS the Life of the Believer, Bless the life of others and Glorifies God. 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].

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!

” The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.  “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep.” ( John 10: 10-11 NKJV).

” For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds,  casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ,  and being ready to punish all disobedience when your obedience is fulfilled.” ( 2 Corinthians 10: 3-6 NKJV).

” Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.  Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.  For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.  Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.  Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace;  above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; 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 6:10-18 NKJV).

” 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: 8-10 NKJV).

” Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.  You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me All the days of my life; And I will dwell in the house of the Lord Forever.”(Psalms 23: 4-6 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].

Good times and good things are coming your way.  

” Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, And for his wonderful works to the children of men! [9] For he satisfieth the longing soul, And filleth the hungry soul with goodness.” (Psalms 107:8-9 KJV).

Psalm 27:13-14 KJV
[13] I had fainted, Unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. [14] Wait on the LORD: Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.

” Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: And I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.”( Psalms 26 :3 KJV).

“It is of the LORD’s mercies that we are not consumed, Because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: Great is thy faithfulness. The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; Therefore will I hope in him.  The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, To the soul that seeketh him.  It is good that a man should both hope and quietly Wait for the salvation of the LORD.” ( Lamentations 3:22-26 KJV).

Malachi 3:6
For I am the LORD, I change not…
Hebrews 13:8
Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
-Let your soul rejoice and say, my God is Good all the time, and all the time my God is Good to me.

Jude 1:24-25 KJV
[24] 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.

+++Blessed I am and blessed I will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

The Purpose of Correction
Proverbs 3:12
For whom the LORD loves He corrects. Just as a father his son in whom he delights.
+No one is above correction.
+We all need correction at some point in our lives.
Proverbs 9:8
Correct a scorner or a mocker, and they will hate you. Correct a wise man, and he will love you.

Proverbs 15:10 NKJV
Harsh discipline is for him who forsakes the way, And he who hates correction will die.

+The wise receives correction gracefully and increases in learning.
+Correction without Love is Abusive and Destructive.
+Correction is always done in Love for our Growth, Development, Maturation in the Lord, in the Holy Spirit and in The Word.
+This develops our Lord’s Personality and Character in us in Excellence and in Perfection which is Christlikeness. Amen!
+You are Loved of the Lord.

II Timothy 3:16-17 NKJV tells us that:
” All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness,  that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.”

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.

REMEMBER THAT YOU ARE CHOSEN AND BLESSED.

“They shall be My people, and I will be their God;  then I will give them one heart and one way, that they may fear Me forever, for the good of them and their children after them. And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn away from doing them good; but I will put My fear in their hearts so that they will not depart from Me. Yes, I will rejoice over them to do them good, and I will assuredly plant them in this land, with all My heart and with all My soul.’  “For thus says the Lord: ‘Just as I have brought all this great calamity on this people, so I will bring on them all the good that I have promised them.”(Jeremiah 32:38-42 NKJV).

“You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you.”(John 15: 16 NKJV).

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, just as He CHOSE us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love,  having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He made us accepted in the Beloved. “(Ephesians 1: 3-6 NKJV).

“But you are a CHOSEN generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy.” ( 1 Peter 2: 9-10 NKJV).

My 🙏🏽 Prayer…
Almighty God, my Heavenly Father,
As the sun paints the sky with hues of hope, I awaken with a heart full of gratitude.

On this blessed Sunday morning, I stand before You, humbled by Your unfailing love and the boundless grace You shower upon me.

This day feels like a warm embrace after a long week’s journey. The weight of the world seems to soften, and a quiet peace settles over my soul.

I come before You with a heart overflowing with thanksgiving. Thank You for the breath in my lungs, the beat of my heart, the very life that courses through me.

Thank You for the love of my family and friends, the laughter that fills our days, and the shoulders that hold me up in times of need.

Forgive me, Father, for the times I strayed from Your path, for the harsh words spoken and the unkind thoughts harbored.

Wash away any guilt or regret that clings to me, cleanse my soul with Your mercy, and grant me the grace to start anew.

Open my ears to hear Your Word today, Lord. Let it resonate through my being, washing away doubt and confusion.

Fill me with the wisdom and strength to navigate the challenges that lie ahead. Grant me the discernment to see the good in the world and the courage to be a beacon of Your love for others.

As I gather with my brothers and sisters in faith, let Your Holy Spirit unite us in fellowship. May our hearts be open to one another, and may Your love flow freely through our community.

Bless our worship, Father, and make our voices a chorus of praise that rises to meet You in the heavens.

And beyond the walls of the church, Lord, guide me as I step back into the world. Help me to carry the peace and joy of this day with me, to see opportunities to serve others, and to be a source of kindness and compassion.

May my actions reflect Your love, and may I be an instrument of Your light in the world.

Finally, Father, I pray for those who are struggling today. For those burdened by illness, loss, or loneliness, I ask for Your healing touch and comforting presence.

Grant them strength to endure, hope for the future, and the knowledge that they are not alone.

In all things, I surrender to Your will, trusting that Your plan is perfect for my life.

May Your blessings be upon me and all those I hold dear. IN THE ALMIGHTY NAME OF JESUS. AMEN 🙌 👏 🙏.

Thank You, Lord, for this beautiful Sunday morning. Thank You for the gift of Your love, Your grace, and Your constant presence in my life.
