Everything that is good comes from God. God only desires good for His children. If you read Genesis chapters 1 & 2, you will see that everything that God had created was good. Before the fall of man, there was no sickness, no disease, no death. All of those things came as a result of the bad decision that Adam and Eve made in the Garden of Eden. When they disobeyed God, the curse entered the earth. Jesus said that He came that we might have life and have it more abundantly (John 10:10). Jesus also said in that same verse that the thief comes to steal, to kill, and to destroy.  
 
God only has good in mind for His children. Jeremiah 29:11 says, “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end”. When challenges occur in our lives, we must know that it did not come from God. God is a good God and His thoughts toward us are that of peace. He loves us, and He only wants the best for His children. Psalms 35:27 tells us that He takes pleasure in the prosperity of His servants. It brings God pleasure to do good for His children. Every good gift and every perfect gift come from Him.

It was once said that “in consistency lies the power”. Consistency always brings results. When we are consistent in exercising, there is usually a change in our body and in our health. When we are consistent in time spent in the Word of God and prayer, there will be a change in our relationship with God.  We will grow closer to Him. There will be an increase of sensitivity in our spirits, and we will be able to hear God more clearly and accurately. That only comes with consistency. James is telling us that as we continue to look intothe perfect law of liberty (the Word of God), a change will take place.  
 
Eventually consistency in looking will cause us to become a doer and then we will experience the Blessing in our lives. Joshua 1:8 tells us that as we meditate on the Word and do what we meditate on, success will be imminent. God desires for His children to be successful. In order to achieve success in His Kingdom, we must start with the Word. As we are faithful in looking into the Word of God, and we are consistent in acting on the Word, we won’t have to chase the blessings, the blessings will come upon us and overtake us.

Living in the world that we live in, it is easy to be influenced by the culture and its thinking. Sometimes if we are not careful, we forget that we are citizens of the kingdom of God. We are to function and operate according to the kingdom that we live in, not according to this world. We are to renew our minds to the Word of God. We are to see things the way God sees them. We are to always look at things from God’s perspective and not ours. When we think in line with the Word of God, it is easier to walk in what God has called us to walk in. We know that all things are possible. We know that if God is for us, no one can successfully be our enemy. That is why it is imperative that we think in line with the Word of God. When we meditate on the Word of God, day and night, success is inevitable  
(Joshua 1:8).  
 
Many Christians have wondered what the will of God is for their lives. As you spend time in the Word of God, you will eventually discern the perfect will of God for your life. Hebrews 4:12 tells us that the Word of God is alive and powerful, and it is a “discerner of the thoughts and the intents of the heart”. The Word of God will cause a separation of your thoughts and you will be able to discern whether what you are thinking came from God or from another source. The Word of God is so important that it will not only transform you by the renewing of your mind, but it will also help you to discern and distinguish the perfect will of God for your life.

Jesus gave us one commandment. He tells us to love one another, the way He loves us. Have you ever thought about how much God loves us? God’s love for us is unconditional. God loved us while we were in sin. God loved us so much that He sent His only begotten son to die for us (John 3:16). If we were incapable of walking in this type of love, God would be unjust in His expectations. God tells us in His Word that the love of God has been shed abroad in our hearts (Romans 5:5). We are capable of loving people the way God loves us. Love is one of the fruit of the Spirit listed in Galatians 5. It takes discipline and it takes determination, but we can love everybody, regardless of their shortcomings, attitudes, personalities, etc. The next time you think it is impossible to love someone, think about God’s mercy and love towards you. Think about how patient He is with us. When you think about how much God puts up with, it should make it easier to love your neighbor.

God takes pleasure in our prosperity. Every good father wants to see their children do well. No good father delights in seeing their children struggle in any area of their lives. This verse tells us that God delights in the prosperity of His servant. As believers we are not just servants of God, under the new testament, we are sons and daughters of God. If God delights in prospering His servants under the old covenant, how much more will He delight in prospering His sons and daughters. Isaiah 1:19 tells us that “if we be willing and obedient, we will eat the good of the land”. As we seek God and obey His Word, there won’t be a need to pursue prosperity, the Blessing of Abraham will come upon us overtake us.

Jesus was anointed with the Holy Ghost and with power for a reason. That reason was to do good and to heal all who were oppressed by the devil. Jesus was anointed to set the people free. Sickness is not the will of God. Jesus did not go about making people sick. He was not going around oppressing the people. God was with Jesus, setting people free. If you are dealing with some type of sickness in your body, know that it is not God that put that sickness on you. Galatians 3:13 tells us that Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law. Sickness is under the curse according to Deuteronomy 28. If God is against sickness and disease, then we should be. Stand on the promises God concerning healing and know that God is “alert and active, watching over His Word to perform it” (Jeremiah 1:12 AMPC).

When Jesus becomes the Lord of our lives, Satan no longer has dominion over us. We no longer belong to Him, and we are not subject to him. Once we switch kingdoms, we must learn how to operate in the Kingdom of God. The rules of the kingdom of God are different and we must renew our minds in order for us to operate proficiently within that kingdom. This gives us some insight into why Jesus told us to seek first the kingdom of God and His way of doing things (Matthew 6:33). By doing this, Jesus said that all of the things that the Gentiles seek would be added unto us. God tells us that His ways are not our ways and His thoughts are not our thoughts (Isaiah 55:8-9). God gave us His Word so that we could renew our minds and learn how to think how He thinks. We can learn to operate the way He operates. When we learn to do so and implement His ways into our lives, we will eventually live the way He lives, and the only way that God lives is a life a victory.

God has already created a path for us. He has not only created a path for us, He has also prearranged us to live a good life (Ephesians 2:10 AMPC). It is on us to seek God in reference to the paths that we are to take. He tells us to call unto Him and that He would answer us and show us great and mighty things, even things that we don’t have knowledge of (Jeremiah 33: 3 AMPC). For many, they are oblivious to their path because they simply have not asked (James 4:2). It is God’s desire that we walk in all that He has for us, but we must be intentional about what receiving direction from God. He is not withholding anything from us. We must seek the Lord about His will for our lives, and as we do, we know that God will lead us and guide us in the way that we should go. He will lead us to our promised land.

As we cultivate our relationship with God, we can know that God will make us what He preordained for us to be. The Bible tells us that God is at work within us, both to will and to do of His good pleasure (Philippians 2:13). It also tells us that we can be confident that the good work that God has started in us, He will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ (Philippians 1:6). God knows what it will take to accomplish his purpose for us. We must allow God to mold us, shape us, and allow Him to order our steps so that we can be where He wants us to be, doing what He wants us to do. He is the potter, and we are the clay. When we allow God to work in our lives, we can know that our lives will turn out to be something beautiful. Our path will grow brighter and brighter until the perfect day (Proverbs 4:18).

Regardless of any circumstance that may come your way and regardless of how you may be disappointed by it or people, the fact still remains that our God is faithful! He is not a man that He can lie (Numbers 23:19). You can “take His Word to the bank”! So, commit to stand on His Word by your words, thoughts AND actions. His Word brings life, so keep it before your eyes (Proverbs 4:20-22). ⁣

Stay connected to Him throughout the day by praying in the spirit [keeping your spirit man built up]. He is faithful to lead, guide and give you direction and insight throughout the day. ⁣

The more time we spend in the presence of our Heavenly Father and meditate on His Word, the more we get to know Him better. Ultimately, this makes it easier to conform to His ways. He made us to be MORE than a conqueror (Romans 8:37), and He is our protection and covering, so we have nothing to fear (Psalm 91:4). If you need wisdom and direction, you have access to the Holy Spirit - your Helper (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 to you.⁣

When we find ourselves in a tight spot, we can call on the God Who created heaven and earth. He desires to deliver us. He desires to rescue His children when we find ourselves in a place where we cannot rescue ourselves. There may be times in our lives when we don’t know what to do. Whether we know what to do or whether we don’t, we can remain confident that God will honor His Word. The same God Who delivered Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego, and Daniel, wants to do the same for you. God is no respecter of persons, but He is a respecter of faith. Without faith it is impossible to please God (Hebrews 11:6). When we depend on God and His Word, this pleases God, and it brings Him on the scene. God always responds to faith, so let's not let Him down. Let's plese our Father and walk in faith, He will come through every time when we do.

 God can prosper us wherever we find ourselves. Joseph was a slave. Joseph was, by the world’s standards, at the bottom of the social class. Despite this position, God still prospered him. God prospered Joseph, and He prospered his master, Potiphar. Later on, Joseph was thrown in prison for a crime that he did not commit. The Bible tells us that God prospered Joseph even when he was in prison. He prospered Joseph to the point that Joseph was running the prison (Genesis 39:20-23). Don’t despise the day of small beginnings (Zechariah 4:10). Don’t allow the enemy to make you feel disgruntled about your present situation. Promotion comes from the Lord. As you continue to seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, you can rest assured that He will bless the works of your hands (Matthew 6:33, Deuteronomy 28: 12).

 Even when we feel that we are confident in the path and purpose that we are walking in, it’s imperative that we take the time daily to check in with our Heavenly Father - the developer of that purpose - to ensure that our steps are still aligned. We are reminded in God’s Word to ‘continue’ to place our confidence in God instead of our intelligence or experience. So trust God’s plans and instructions both in your day-to-day AND long term interactions and planning. He is faithful, and He will establish and make sure His plans for your life. ⁣He NEVER fails! 🙌

In spite of all of the challenges and the impossibilities, God came through for Sarah. God told Sarah that she would have a child. He didn’t care about her barrenness. He wasn’t concerned about her age or the age of her husband. When God said it, it was a done deal. Whatever God has said to us in His Word, it is a done deal. The Bible tells us that the promises of God in Him are yes and amen (II Corinthians 1:20). God has already said yes to everything He has promised us. He is looking for people will believe His Word and stand on His Word. God will do what He has said and He will fulfill His promise.

👀 24/7/365 keep your eyes on Jesus. Not only will He give you the strength to follow-through (Philippians 4:13) on any task/responsibilities you have in front of you, but He also perfects your faith to achieve it. Jesus is the ultimate Role Model on what it means to have a goal that you stick too regardless of any level of discomfort of sacrifice because of the end goal and the happiness you will have after achieving it. Trust God for the strength and discipline that is needed, whether they are regarding you walking in your purpose or more practical goals. He will continue to perfect those areas that concern you, just keep your eyes on Him. ⁣

🙌 Peace is just 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. Cast all your cares on God. Walk in His peace today and trust that He will give you strength every step of the way. If you are His child then peace is just part of His inheritance.⁣⁣

With so much turmoil in the world today, isn’t it wonderful to know that we can have peace in the midst of everything that is going on around us? We can have peace because we have a covenant with Almighty God. God says He would never leave us nor forsake us (Hebrews 13:5). As long as we keep our minds on His promises, we can walk in peace. As we commit ourselves to God, we can trust Him to take care of everything that concerns us. We can be like Jesus in Mark 4. A storm arose while He and His disciples were on a boat trying to get to their destination. Instead of worrying and crying out in fear like the disciples, Jesus was asleep. Regardless of the storms we face in life, we can go to sleep, knowing that God is taking care of things. Cast your care on the Lord, and when you do, you can have the peace of God that passes all understanding (Philippians 4:7).

No matter what we face in life, we can face it with joy. Joy is one of the fruits of the spirit listed in Galatians 5.  The fruit of joy allows us to sustain a joyful countenance in the face of any storm. We can always have joy in our hearts because we know that whatever we are facing is temporary, or subject to change. The Word of God tells us to walk by faith and not by sight (2 Corinthians 5:7). When our eyes are on the promises of God and not our circumstances, it's easy to have joy. We have joy because it's just a matter of time before our circumstances line up with the Word of God. Don’t let the enemy steal your joy. Allow the joy of the Lord to strengthen you and sustain and know that victory is on the way.
