🙌 When the pressures of this world seem to be blowing in our direction , we have only to lean on God - our IMMOVABLE Rock. He steadies our footing and makes our way clear (Psalm 143:10) because He loves us and cares about our well-being and safety. In a spirit of gratitude for that love, we should honor Him through our words and deeds.
🙌 He is a Holy and righteous God, and He cares about what we spend time meditating on (Philippians 4:8). May our thoughts reflect our respect and appreciation for His love, holiness and the sacrifice He made for us through His Son Jesus. Selah.

God has a unique purpose for your life, but have you been obedient and truly allowed Him to transform you from the inside out? God loves us; He literally considers more valuable than any piece of art that dawns the walls of any museum in this world. The beautiful montage of gifts, talents, and what you think are useless idiosyncrasies sometimes, all add to the work of art that is YOU! You are a living, breathing masterpiece…a walking representation of the artistry, craftsmanship and handiwork that can only be embodied by the Creator of Universe!
🙌 He knows best for your life so trust Him for the wisdom and direction to walk out His plans for you life. You’re HIS masterpiece. May the joy of the Lord strengthen and transform us so that we are ready to be used for HIS work today! Selah.

Thoughts will become words and then words eventually translate into actions, so be careful about the type of treasure you allow to be stored in your heart. Only you have the authority to determine whether the conversations you’re a part of, the music or shows you watch, the material you read glorifies God and mines good treasure or bad in your heart.
💛🙌 Create in me a clean heart God (Psalm 51:10) so that my words do not deceive or misrepresent You as I am your child. I desire for the treasure in my heart to honor you so that my thoughts are good, lovely and pure (Philippians 4:8). Give me wisdom and discernment on what I’m exposing myself to daily. Thank you Lord for your love and grace to send the Holy Spirit as my Helper so that I may honor you in word and deed. Amen.

🙌 When we place our confidence in God and trust Him to lead our lives, we are cognizant of God’s love for us. The peace and joy that He’s given us access to is beyond our understanding (Philippians 4:7, Proverbs 3:5-6). He desires for our hearts to overflow with His love. Regardless of what’s going on around us, we can put our trust and hoxpe in God. He anchors our souls when everything around us seems to be unstable. Our Father desires to lead our lives, give wisdom and bring peace of mind. May this bring joy to your heart today. God loves you.

The more time we spend “at His feet” and meditating on His Word, we get to know Him better thus making it easier to conform to His ways. He sent His Son Jesus so that you could be reconciled with Him, delivered and set free from any sickness, disease, bondage or baggage. He’s made you MORE than a conqueror (Romans 8:37). He is your protection and covering, so you have nothing to fear (Psalm 91:4).
If you need wisdom and direction, you have access to the Holy Spirit - your Helper - and you only have to ask Him (James 1:5). In and through the mighty power of God, you will find the strength you need to fulfill every task before you today (Ephesians 6:10, Philippians 4:13)! So hold your head up and walk humbly and confidently in the divine power that God has been given you on this Happy Sunday!

As you prepare for the day, be sure to reflect on the mercy of God. He clearly demonstrated His love and grace through the sacrifice of His Son Jesus. It’s nothing that we did in and of ourselves, but through our salvation in Jesus, we have the freedom to live and walk around justified in God’s eyes. Not only do we have the gift of eternal life, but we have the benefit of having an actual relationship with Him and the privilege of receiving direction and comfort through the Holy Spirit on a daily basis. So, don’t lose sight of the benefits of that relationship. God’s love for you is profound (John 15:13), and He desires for you to live victoriously in life. Just trust Him for direction and favor and be sure to give Him the glory every step of the way.

Consistent. LOVE-ly. Those are just two adjectives that describe our magnificent Father! He gave His absolute best for us when He sent His son Jesus (John 3:16-17). You never have to be concerned about being disappointed because is character is unblemished, and that’s just a trait about Him that will always remain the same. When everything around us seems to be a little shaky or unsettled, He is the anchor of our souls, the calm and peaceful wind to our emotions. Relax and have faith IN His consistent love for you this morning. He adores you and has great plans for your live…and that will never change.

God is love and true love literally drives out fear. We should have a desire to represent Christ and do the same as His ambassadors here on earth. Only God can truly transform and perfect us in His perfect love because He IS love. Once this is done we are better qualified as His ambassadors. Selah.

Where can we go that is beyond our Father’s watchful eye? Is it even possible to stray outside of His care? Nope…it’s impossible. So, why delay in opening up to Him for wisdom, for direction…for peace? Not only is He omnipresent; He’s also omniscient - He knows all. So wherever you go, whatever is on your mindHiding from His presence is the equivalent of hiding in broad delay in the middle of an open field…pointless. Perhaps that’s one of the reasons He prods us to not only trust Him but to seek Him for direction (Proverbs 3:5-6).
🙌 He literally already knows the end from the beginning and can give you the wisdom and direction you need for your situation. In order to truly be “living” (active, full of life or vigor, functioning) epistles of our Father, our relationship with God cannot remain in a dormant state. We have to actively stir up the gift and rely on the Holy Spirit for day-to-day instructions and leading for the will of God to be in operation in and through our lives. Just like with any other meaningful relationship earthly relationship, God wants to be “present” AND “active” in your life. Stay sensitive to His voice so that He can be.

Regardless of what you have planned today and regardless of how your day goes, you can choose joy. Why? Because if you’re in the family of God, then joy - not just happiness - is a byproduct connected with the fruits of that relationship.
🙌 Our joy stems from the heart of thanksgiving that we have because of what our Father God and His Son Jesus has done for us! He loved us and counted us valuable enough to transfer us from the kingdom of darkness (where we belonged because of our sin nature) and into His kingdom. No longer are we in bondage to sin, fear or any of the fruits of the kingdom of darkness. We are privy to the benefits of the inhabitants of God’s kingdom including true joy and supernatural peace. Smile…you’re the responsibility of the King of King and Lord of Lords, who just happens to also to desire to be your loving Father. Place and leave your life and all your plans in His capable hands. He will never lead you astray. Happy Monday!

💪 We can draw our strength from God spiritually and sometimes it can manifest physically. We have the privilege of His boldness operating on the inside of us so that we can we can represent Him properly and share His love with the world. May we rest in the authority and power that we have through the power of His Son Jesus.

💎 You are so valuable to God! So much so, He was totally absorbed with your existence in the state of your physical pre-existence, starting in your mother’s womb (Jeremiah 1:5). It was here that He so carefully crafted both your physical characteristics and paired them together with the natural gifts and abilities He entrusted to you. He knows your name (Isaiah 43:1), and He cares about every detail of your life; He was willing to give it all so that you could live freely.
🙌 So, don’t you dare settle or give up on what you feel He has called you to in your divine purpose. Invest the time in prayer even throughout the day in getting on the same page with Him to ensure that the path you’ve been walking is what He ordained for you at the state of your “pre-existence”. Yes…you’re that big of a deal to Him. Trust that He loves you and that your future is secure when you place it in His hands. You were created for His glory!

True wisdom comes from God. May godly wisdom and the fruit of the spirit bear witness in our lives so that we are better representatives of Christ in how we interact with and allow the love of God to operate in our lives towards others. Thank you Lord for loving us enough to give us your wisdom and for the privilege of representing you here on earth!

Need strength this morning? Woke up feeling anxious or worried? Well, there’s no need to stay that way. Cast all your cares on God; He is more than capable of handling them! God freely gives His children joy and in that joy they find the strength to face any situation.
🙌 On top of that, peace is another one of the benefits of being in the family of God (Isaiah 26:3, John 14:27), so be encouraged and take advantage of what He willingly has made available to you. Walk in His peace today and trust that He will give you strength every step of the way. He is all you need!

Commit today to continue to grow, learn and study the things of God, so that you develop spiritually more than you did yesterday. Pray in tongues regularly so that the Holy Spirit - your Teacher - can instruct you and give wisdom and guidance where needed. What a merciful Father we serve! He wasn’t just interested in “saving” us (John 3:16), but after He did, He cared enough for us to “perfect” those things that concern us and use us for His will (Psalm 138:8)!
🙏 God please continue to work in and through us for your good pleasure and purpose. Thank you for the pleasure and privilege of being fit for your use, in Jesus’ name, Amen.
