DAILY DEVOTIONAL | December 12th

🤔 Have you adopted the mind of Christ in the way that you are viewing the circumstances of your life - good or bad? Regardless of the situation, never forget that God’s peace transcends all understanding (John 14:27). It is unbothered by the circumstances of life. So, keep your mind focused on things that honor your Heavenly Father and be sure to confess today: "I have the mind of Christ! His priorities are my priorities. My future is safe in Him." You can rest and put your confidence in Him. Have a wonderful weekend!☀️⁣

🙌 ⁣⁣Regardless of what the circumstances looks like and what man has said or done, why should we waste time and energy exalting the opinions of humans who are as frail as breath, when we serve the the Most High God & Creator of the universe?! If God said it, that settles it! He will fulfill every promise that He has given to you. So, give honor and praise to Him in advance for what He will do on your behalf. He is faithful, and He will not let you down. REST in Him and have a blessed day! ⁣⁣⁣

💗📖 “To know Him is to love Him…” The more we deepen our relationship with God by allowing Him to teach us how to exercise good judgement and discernment in our personal lives, the better we get to know and strengthen our relationship with our Heavenly Father. When we embrace His precepts and make it a priority for the things that are dear to His heart to become close to ours, the more our faith is strengthened. His Word (the Bible) = His will = His heart. Keep your spirit man built up today and take the time “to know Him” a little better by reflecting on His Word. #HeWantsYouToKnowHimBetter⁣

DAILY DEVOTIONAL | December 9th

Everything that we do [and the quality that we do it in] and even how we speak shows others a reflection of our Heavenly Father. We are the hands and feet of Christ and the only “Jesus” that many will see. It’s important that we practice both trusting and asking Him on how to best honor Him in our representation. ⁣

⁣⁣⁣It’s the heart of God that we stay connected with Him throughout the day so that He can lead us and give us wisdom. In doing so, we also build up our spirit man. Our relationship with God is the gift that keeps on giving. Put your confidence in Him and rest.⁣⁣⁣

DAILY DEVOTIONAL | December 8th

When our focus is on representing our Heavenly Father well here on earth, then we will do our best to ensure that our “good name” is intact. How else can we properly represent One so powerful, faithful and worthy of all of our praises? Ironically, when we have a good name or reputation - be it on the job, with a lender or within your respective communities, you are looked upon more favorably and better opportunities will come your way. Oftentimes, the monetary amount of what is saved or given to you when you have the favor of God is on your life is of greater value to you in the end. ⁣⁣⁣

🙏 God, please give us the wisdom, strength and direction to represent you properly in our behavior, deeds and thoughts. Thank you for the favor that you have given us so freely and surrounded us with (Psalm 5:2). We are forever grateful for your love for us.⁣⁣⁣

DAILY DEVOTIONAL | December 7th

Monday is before us again. Let’s be sure to start the week off right by choosing our words wisely today. They have power! Speak life and not death over yourself, your family, friends and loved ones. Let your first words today be ones of thanksgiving to God for the gift of life this morning (1 Chronicles 16:34); and make sure that before you think about the current circumstances of your life - good or bad, you examine what you say. ⁣

Ask God to guard the door of your mouth (Psalm 141:3). You are a child of the Most High God and redeemed from the curse of the law. Remember: your words frame your world! Think on good things (Philippians 4:8), then speak life to your circumstance. Have a blessed day.⁣⁣

DAILY DEVOTIONAL | December 6th

Just a reminder this morning that there is NOTHING too hard for our Heavenly Father. He cannot and will not lie to us. Whatever He has said that He will do, He will do. So stand confidently on the promises of God and on the purpose and plans that He’s revealed to you. He will bring them to pass. ⁣⁣⁣

He is faithful and regardless of whether you can see the physical manifestation of those promises yet, trust and believe: if God said it, that settles it. Practice agreeing with His Word verbally. Have faith and visualize those things before they come into existence. Ask God for His help to see things the way He sees and desires you to (Hebrews 11:1. 2 Kings 16:17). He’s got you. Just stay the course and keep your eyes on Him.⁣⁣⁣

🏃‍♀️ 🏃🏾‍♂️🏃‍♀️🏃 We can run to God for protection both in the physical and spiritual realm. A shield is strong and impenetrable just like our Father. He will protect you from any danger seen or unseen; He will keep you from the wiles of the enemy. Accept His peace today knowing that there is safety in His arms. Regardless of any circumstance that you may be experiencing today, He is more than able to keep you from any harm, and the peace (John 14:27) that He also provides in the process is unbothered by the “storms” of life. So rest. He loves you! ⁣

DAILY DEVOTIONAL | December 4th

The more we stay in the presence of our Heavenly Father and keep our spirit man built up, the more we will experience God’s joy and unexplainable peace [by the world’s standards]. Stay connected “upward” so that your spirit remains SENSITIVE to receive direction for God’s path for your life. There’s no situation too big or small — He is faithful, and He cares about EVERY detail of your life. So keep your faith active, continue to trust Him and allow His joy to strengthen you today. ⁣⁣

DAILY DEVOTIONAL | December 3rd

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 as the result 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. We're no longer in bondage to sin or fear, but we've made privy to the benefits of the inhabitants of God’s Kingdom including true joy and supernatural peace. ⁣

😊 So SMILE…you’re the responsibility of the King of King and Lord of Lords AND your Heavenly Father, if you have a relationship with Him. Place and leave your life and all your plans in His capable hands. He won't lead you astray.

DAILY DEVOTIONAL | December 2nd

🙌 Good morning new mercies! Because of God’s faithfulness, we can can put our hope in Him. He is dependable and consistent, and His heart towards us is compassionate. So never tire seeking God’s direction and/or walking in His purpose for your life. If you’ve missed the mark, His grace is sufficient; if you’ve hit it, it’s still only because of His grace. ⁣⁣⁣⁣

Take the time to reflect on and thank God for His love for you this morning. Appreciate His “leading” in your life (Psalm 23, Isaiah 30:21). Because of God’s faithfulness to us, our hope and faith IN HIM can be renewed afresh this morning and the next, just like his mercies. He is a good Father! ⁣⁣ May we represent you well today Father (Ephesians 2:19)! ⁣⁣⁣⁣

DAILY DEVOTIONAL | December 1st

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 Terrific Tuesday!⁣⁣

God is not moved by outward appearances (I Samuel 16:7), He is moved by the condition of our hearts. When we earnestly seek God with all our hearts, He is moved to speak and reveal Himself to us. Take the time daily to pray in the spirit to stir up your spirit man. Seek God’s face in prayer and by meditating on His Word as desperately as a deer pants for water at a stream (Psalm 42:1). Only Jesus can quench our soul’s thirst.⁣

DAILY DEVOTIONAL | November 29th

You are anointed, called & set apart for the special use of your Creator! There’s no good deed or task that we have done to qualify for us. Instead, God’s love for us and the sacrifice of His Son Jesus paved the way for it. The Greater One lives inside of you (1 John 4:4) and the Holy Spirit desires to guide you and give you power. Stay connected to the Power Source, so that you are better qualified to be Christ’s ambassadors and to walk victoriously. You are anointed to complete every task before you today. Don’t forget you’re MORE than a conqueror (Romans 8:37)!⁣

📖 “See what an incredible quality of love the Father has shown to us, that we would [be permitted to] be named and called and counted the children of God! And so we are! For this reason the world does not know us, because it did not know Him.“ -1 John 3:1 AMP

God’s love for us would be considered unfathomable by man’s standards. He gave His all and His best for us when He sacrificed His Son (John 15:13, 3:16). He set us apart and brought us out of darkness and into His Kingdom (Jeremiah 1:5, Hebrews 10:10-12), 1 Peter 2:9). He’s given us a new identity in His family and declared us royalty. He’s redeemed us from the curse of the law and remained steadfast in His plans for our lives being carried out in our lives from our very birth. God=Love Receive Him (His love) for you today. ❤️ ⁣

No need to fear, to wallow in bitterness, strife or anger OR to worry when we’ve got the Lord of Hosts on our side. Let God work out THE situation, whatever it is, and allow God’s peace to soothe your mind, heart and emotions. ⁣

💪You are in the Army of the Lord, and the battle that we are in is not physical, but spiritual. So stay focused on the assignment that what God has called you to, remember the REAL enemy and make sure that you are dressed for battle at all times (Ephesians 6:10-18). Keep your peace and smile. The Lord fights for US! ⁣⁣

DAILY DEVOTIONAL | November 26th

You can tell from David’s reflections in the twenty third psalm that He was convinced that the Lord desires to lead His children every step of the way in our personal lives. Shepherds LEAD their flock every step of the way. The Good Shepherd LEADS us beside peaceful streams (He doesn’t want us anxious or to fret about anything; He wants us to rest IN Him. Philippians 4:6). He GUIDES you and directs your steps to walk in the will and purpose that He desires for your life (Psalm 37:23). Even when we may find ourselves going through tough times or in the presence of company that is ill willed against us, our Good Shepherd gives us perfect peace and never leaves our side (John 14:27)!

God desires to not only lead your life not only for your benefit - though He desires good for you (Psalm 139:17) - but also so that He gets the glory and more men & women are led into the Kingdom as a result. Find comfort in His love for you today and don’t forget to stir up the gift by praying in tongues throughout the day. That’s one of the key ways He LEADS you on a daily basis and not just with big life decision but with the day-to-day ones. He will give you the words to say, how and when to say them, tell you who to speak to, who not to and even what to do. Allow Him to lead you into this blessed Monday morning and the remainder of your work week. #RestINHim

Let’s stay focused and keep our eyes on the PRIZE, saints. He doesn’t want us to waste time being anxious over the care of this world. Our attitude and character should mirror our Fathers. So “seek” after the Kingdom of God and His ways, and He’ll provide (Philippians 4:19). Come against worry and fear in the name of Jesus! You are in His hands and when you busy yourself with His business (Kingdom business), He’ll take care of yours. Release it to God and REST in Him. Happy Wednesday!
