Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Provision, For when we have nothing, He is our everything! I Thank the Lord for Assurance, For Our Hope is forever in Jesus! I Thank the Lord for Grace, For even our Hearts desires are corrupted in the eyes of the Lord!

 

It is Written, “What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase? By no means! We are those who have died to sin; how can we live in it any longer? Or don’t you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life. For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we will certainly also be united with him in a resurrection like his. For we know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body ruled by sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves to sin– because anyone who has died has been set free from sin. Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him. For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over him. The death he died, he died to sin once for all; but the life he lives, he lives to God.” Romans 6:1-10

 

Prayer: I Pray Father that you increase your Love and Grace over your Children through these times of Trail in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Home, For we are blessed to have a place to rest our head!I Thank the Lord for Work, from the sweat of our brow we are rewarded! I Thank the Lord for Play, For He has given us this life to live and enjoy by His Name!

 

It is Written, “Certain people came down from Judea to Antioch and were teaching the believers: “Unless you are circumcised, according to the custom taught by Moses, you cannot be saved.” This brought Paul and Barnabas into sharp dispute and debate with them. So Paul and Barnabas were appointed, along with some other believers, to go up to Jerusalem to see the apostles and elders about this question. The church sent them on their way, and as they traveled through Phoenicia and Samaria, they told how the Gentiles had been converted. This news made all the believers very glad. When they came to Jerusalem, they were welcomed by the church and the apostles and elders, to whom they reported everything God had done through them. Then some of the believers who belonged to the party of the Pharisees stood up and said, “The Gentiles must be circumcised and required to keep the law of Moses.” The apostles and elders met to consider this question. After much discussion, Peter got up and addressed them: “Brothers, you know that some time ago God made a choice among you that the Gentiles might hear from my lips the message of the gospel and believe. God, who knows the heart, showed that he accepted them by giving the Holy Spirit to them, just as he did to us. He did not discriminate between us and them, for he purified their hearts by faith. Now then, why do you try to test God by putting on the necks of Gentiles a yoke that neither we nor our ancestors have been able to bear? No! We believe it is through the grace of our Lord Jesus that we are saved, just as they are.” The whole assembly became silent as they listened to Barnabas and Paul telling about the signs and wonders God had done among the Gentiles through them. When they finished, James spoke up. “Brothers,” he said, “listen to me. Simon has described to us how God first intervened to choose a people for his name from the Gentiles. The words of the prophets are in agreement with this, as it is written: ” ‘After this I will return and rebuild David’s fallen tent. Its ruins I will rebuild, and I will restore it, that the rest of mankind may seek the Lord, even all the Gentiles who bear my name, says the Lord, who does these things’– things known from long ago. “It is my judgment, therefore, that we should not make it difficult for the Gentiles who are turning to God. Instead we should write to them, telling them to abstain from food polluted by idols, from sexual immorality, from the meat of strangled animals and from blood. For the law of Moses has been preached in every city from the earliest times and is read in the synagogues on every Sabbath.”

 

Prayer: I Thank the Lord that the Law of Moses was not removed, but Strengthen by the New Covenant. I Pray Lord that we are blessed by the Law of Spirit which leads us to all truth in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Joy, Though sorrow may last through the night, Joy comes in the Morning! I Thank the Lord for Worship, Daily we shall arise and praise His Holy Name! I Thank the Lord for Righteous Living, For He has called to honor our temple as the dwelling place of the Holy Spirit!

 

It is written, “Therefore, with minds that are alert and fully sober, set your hope on the grace to be brought to you when Jesus Christ is revealed at his coming. As obedient children, do not conform to the evil desires you had when you lived in ignorance. But just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do; for it is written: “Be holy, because I am holy.” Since you call on a Father who judges each person’s work impartially, live out your time as foreigners here in reverent fear. For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your ancestors, but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect. He was chosen before the creation of the world, but was revealed in these last times for your sake. Through him you believe in God, who raised him from the dead and glorified him, and so your faith and hope are in God.” 1 Peter 1:13-21

 

Prayer: I Pray Father that you instill Holy Living upon your children and we mature out of our old ways into our new ways in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for a New Song, For in the Morning He shall put His Words upon our Lips! I Thank the Lord for Help, for in our time of need, we shall look to the Maker of Heaven and Earth! I Thank the Lord for Covenant, For He shall be with His Children Forever and Evermore beyond Eternity!

 

It is Written, “A song of ascents. I lift up my eyes to the mountains– where does my help come from? My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth. He will not let your foot slip– he who watches over you will not slumber; indeed, he who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep. The LORD watches over you– the LORD is your shade at your right hand; the sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night. The LORD will keep you from all harm– he will watch over your life; the LORD will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore.” Psalm 121:1-8

 

Prayer: I Pray Father, that through every situation that your Children go through, may we focus our knees to the ground and our eyes towards Heaven in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Foresight, for His shall Warn those who have the hear to Listen! I Thank the Lord for Divine Favor, for in time your time of need, He has made a way! I Thank the Lord for Friendship, Truly Blessed is a man who has many who would laid down their Life for Him!

 

It is Written, “As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins, n which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient. All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of our flesh and following its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature deserving of wrath. But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions–it is by grace you have been saved. And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, in order that in the coming ages he might show the incomparable riches of his grace, expressed in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus. For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith–and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God– not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” Ephesians 2:1-10

 

Prayer: I Pray Father that you Bless your Children with Many of those who are not just called Brothers and Sisters, but who are truly Friends in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Patient, in the Hour of need, we shall wait on Him! I Thank the Lord for diligence, for only the strong shall break through! I Thank the Lord for persistence, for every building start out as a brick!

 

It is Written, “Brothers and sisters, let me take an example from everyday life. Just as no one can set aside or add to a human covenant that has been duly established, so it is in this case. The promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. Scripture does not say “and to seeds,” meaning many people, but “and to your seed,” meaning one person, who is Christ. What I mean is this: The law, introduced 430 years later, does not set aside the covenant previously established by God and thus do away with the promise. For if the inheritance depends on the law, then it no longer depends on the promise; but God in his grace gave it to Abraham through a promise. Why, then, was the law given at all? It was added because of transgressions until the Seed to whom the promise referred had come. The law was given through angels and entrusted to a mediator. A mediator, however, implies more than one party; but God is one. Is the law, therefore, opposed to the promises of God? Absolutely not! For if a law had been given that could impart life, then righteousness would certainly have come by the law. But Scripture has locked up everything under the control of sin, so that what was promised, being given through faith in Jesus Christ, might be given to those who believe.” Galatians 3:15-22

 

Prayer: I Pray Father that you Bless your Children with the understanding of the Everlasting Covenant and the Spiritual inheritance we have From Abraham in Jesus Name, Amen!

Day 200 Hebrews 3:1-12

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Peace, for with it we know what it means to enter into His rest! I Thank the Lord for Open Heart, For the Holy Spirit shall guide us to salvation! I Thank the Lord for a servants heart, for it shall lead to a selfless life style!

 

It is Written, “Therefore, holy brothers and sisters, who share in the heavenly calling, fix your thoughts on Jesus, whom we acknowledge as our apostle and high priest. He was faithful to the one who appointed him, just as Moses was faithful in all God’s house. Jesus has been found worthy of greater honor than Moses, just as the builder of a house has greater honor than the house itself. For every house is built by someone, but God is the builder of everything. “Moses was faithful as a servant in all God’s house,” bearing witness to what would be spoken by God in the future. But Christ is faithful as the Son over God’s house. And we are his house, if indeed we hold firmly to our confidence and the hope in which we glory. So, as the Holy Spirit says: “Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as you did in the rebellion, during the time of testing in the wilderness, where your ancestors tested and tried me, though for forty years they saw what I did. That is why I was angry with that generation; I said, ‘Their hearts are always going astray, and they have not known my ways.’ So I declared on oath in my anger, ‘They shall never enter my rest.’ ” See to it, brothers and sisters, that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God.” Hebrews 3:1-12

 

Prayer: I Pray Father that you give your children encouragement through out the day so that they may encourage other in Jesus Name, Amen!

Day 199 Romans 7:1-6

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Law, For it shall lead us only until Death! I Thank the Lord for the Spirit, For we are all redeem to Him from the Law! I Thank the Lord for Marriage, for we were bound by flesh, but freed by the Holy Spirit!

 

It is Written, “Do you not know, brothers and sisters–for I am speaking to those who know the law–that the law has authority over someone only as long as that person lives? For example, by law a married woman is bound to her husband as long as he is alive, but if her husband dies, she is released from the law that binds her to him. So then, if she has sexual relations with another man while her husband is still alive, she is called an adulteress. But if her husband dies, she is released from that law and is not an adulteress if she marries another man. So, my brothers and sisters, you also died to the law through the body of Christ, that you might belong to another, to him who was raised from the dead, in order that we might bear fruit for God. For when we were in the realm of the flesh, the sinful passions aroused by the law were at work in us, so that we bore fruit for death. But now, by dying to what once bound us, we have been released from the law so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code.” Romans 7:1-6

 

Prayer: I Pray Father that you continue to free your Children from the Law of Death, into the Realm of the Spirit which brings forth Life in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Trust, For without faith, we serve a dead God! I Thank the Lord for Idols, For the Image of Perfection is just an illusion. I Thank the Lord for assignments, For He uses all things to shape our Destiny!

 

It is Written, “The words of Nehemiah son of Hakaliah: In the month of Kislev in the twentieth year, while I was in the citadel of Susa, Hanani, one of my brothers, came from Judah with some other men, and I questioned them about the Jewish remnant that had survived the exile, and also about Jerusalem. They said to me, “Those who survived the exile and are back in the province are in great trouble and disgrace. The wall of Jerusalem is broken down, and its gates have been burned with fire.” When I heard these things, I sat down and wept. For some days I mourned and fasted and prayed before the God of heaven. Then I said: “LORD, the God of heaven, the great and awesome God, who keeps his covenant of love with those who love him and keep his commandments, let your ear be attentive and your eyes open to hear the prayer your servant is praying before you day and night for your servants, the people of Israel. I confess the sins we Israelites, including myself and my father’s family, have committed against you. We have acted very wickedly toward you. We have not obeyed the commands, decrees and laws you gave your servant Moses. “Remember the instruction you gave your servant Moses, saying, ‘If you are unfaithful, I will scatter you among the nations, but if you return to me and obey my commands, then even if your exiled people are at the farthest horizon, I will gather them from there and bring them to the place I have chosen as a dwelling for my Name.’ “They are your servants and your people, whom you redeemed by your great strength and your mighty hand. Lord, let your ear be attentive to the prayer of this your servant and to the prayer of your servants who delight in revering your name. Give your servant success today by granting him favor in the presence of this man.” I was cupbearer to the king.” Nehemiah 1:1-11

 

Prayer:I Pray Lord that you strengthen your servants to bring forth a Heart of Repentance for this generation in Jesus Name!

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Understanding, For our hardships in this life shall not be forever! I Thank the Lord for clarity, For God blesses those who seek the Spirit of discernment! I Thank the Lord for Testimonies, For at the end of this life, we shall have ours written in the Book of Life!

It is Written, “Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. After fasting forty days and forty nights, he was hungry. The tempter came to him and said, “If you are the Son of God, tell these stones to become bread.” Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.'” Then the devil took him to the holy city and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. “If you are the Son of God,” he said, “throw yourself down. For it is written: ” ‘He will command his angels concerning you, and they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.'” Jesus answered him, “It is also written: ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.'” Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor. “All this I will give you,” he said, “if you will bow down and worship me.” Jesus said to him, “Away from me, Satan! For it is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.'” Then the devil left him, and angels came and attended him.” Matthew 4:1-11

Prayer: I Pray Father that you grant access to the deeper knowledge and understanding of your Word to all your Children as we prepare for the events of the future in Jesus Name!
